Chapter Ninety-Four: Red Rock City
"Who else is there?" Yun Chu has long heard of the three giants in the Rotten Land, but only two of them are known, and the other is unheard of.
Zesheng slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, how did I forget him." There is also a big giant, named Shui Wuying, who has a water element aura! The water element aura can just solve the problem!"
Yun Chu said: "Water element aura, what is the specific effect?"
Bai Yan raised his pretty face and said, "It is said that as long as he stretches out his finger, he can devour a city. The water elemental aura can quickly turn into a swampy area, which is just right for our needs, but it's a pity that ......"
Yun Chu frowned slightly, and said, "What is the pity?"
Bai Yan regretted: "It's a pity that he has lived in seclusion for a long time, he hasn't shown his figure in the rotten land for many years, and he doesn't belong to any sect, if you want to find him, I'm afraid it's like looking for a needle in a haystack." And even if we find him, will he help us?"
Judging from the current situation, if you can find Shui Wuying, with his help, then it is naturally easy to catch the monster, but it is a little difficult to find someone, and time waits for no one.
After some deliberation, they really couldn't think of a better way, the monster from the ruins was so terrifying, almost invincible......
At this time, Yun Chu finally had a plan, although they couldn't find Shui Wuying for a while, they could meet a person who could find Shui Wuying.
He learned from Bai Yan that there was a person who was proficient in divination and could measure everything in the world. When divination, you only need to pinch the palm of your hand a few times, press a few times, meditate for a while, and soon you can figure out what you want to know.
He is none other than Nangong Xu of Red Rock City, nicknamed "Mr. Shenxu".
Whether a person is dead or alive, married or unmarried, or where he is, for Shen Xu, it is as easy as finding out for something.
Immediately decided, Yun Chu decided to go to find Shenxu. As long as you calculate the location of Shui Wuying, find him, ask him for help, capture the monster and rescue Li Qiuling, it will naturally be no problem!
Bai Yan and the others looked for another strategy, planning to go to the black market to inquire about Shui Wuying's whereabouts. So he left, bought a manned beast nearby, and went to the black market.
This little beast is called "Big Black Dragon", which is artificially bred and is one of the means of transportation in the rotten land.
However, due to the high price of the best black dragon, and the slow speed of ordinary large black dragons, many cultivators did not choose to use it, but were instead enthusiastic about it by some businessmen and used it to transport things.
Time was pressing, Yun Chu didn't think much about it, so he bought a superb black dragon.
Ride this beast and rush to Redstone City. I have to say that the speed of this superb black dragon can be called fast. According to the map, in the afternoon of the same day, we arrived at Red Rock City, which was 500 miles away.
The weather here is unusually cool, the air is fresh, and there is no more earthy smell.
Yun Chu's depressed mood was a lot more cheerful, and in his eyes, the buildings in the city were all made of dark red stones, and under the illumination of the sun, they lined up a red light, which was full of fairy energy, which made people feel refreshed.
Eight young men in battle armor, armed with spears and mighty**, guarded the city gate. All those who enter the city are to be examined by them.
There were a lot of people in and out of Red Rock City, and Yun Chu was looking for people, so he went directly through the crowd and rushed to the city gate. hugged his fists and said: "Brothers, I have something important, I want to go into the city to find someone to help, please make it convenient, please!"
A bearded guard shouted: "No, go down and line up, no matter how important things are, you can't cut in line, this is the rule!"
Yun Chu wanted to take out some resources to bribe, but the other seven guards had already rushed over, and one shouted: "Hurry up and give it to me!"
Yun Chu had no choice but to follow the crowd, line up, and wait for the inspection. The crowd was like an army marching to war, there were so many people entering the city, and as time ticked by, he stretched out his finger and tapped the tip of his nose.
The guards checked very carefully, two people asked, and the other six blocked the way to the city gate, and only gave in and let them go after the first two had finished examining.
And those who go out of the city must also be scrutinized by them.
After some observation, Yun Chu found that not everyone can enter the city. After checking the three people, only one person entered the city, and two others were reprimanded a few words, and turned around to leave.
The distance is far away, and he can't hear the content of the inquiry clearly, Yun Chu has a bad premonition, I'm afraid it's not easy to enter the city, what are they checking?
In front of him was a middle-aged man, dark-skinned and wearing a cloak. Yun Chu opened his mouth and asked, "Big brother, what are they checking? Do you need a token to enter the city?"
The middle-aged man glanced at Yun Chu and said in surprise: "You are a stranger, right?
Yun Chu nodded and said: "The kid is a stranger, he came to Redstone City to visit relatives, and after many years in this city, he couldn't imagine that it would change so much, and he almost couldn't find it here." β
The middle-aged man saw that he was hearty, and he did not shy away from talking about the past to himself, and he also smiled, and his face became melancholy. "Yes, when I was your age, this Redstone City was still a desolate graveyard. At that time......"
Yun Chu scratched his forehead, I didn't want to hear you say this.
The middle-aged man talked a series of things, and seemed to be a little unfinished, and said: "Let me tell you, in the past few days, the city lord's 'Tuesday Master' has held a happy event in the mansion, but the city suddenly began to die inexplicably, and one or two died every day, and then it increased every day, and now it is ......"
A bald young man heard their conversation and said, "I heard that seven or eight people have died today, and the city lord is furious, but he has never been able to find out who the murderer is, so it will be like this." The strangest thing is the way those who died...... It's just weird. β
"Their deaths are very bizarre, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it is man-made......" The middle-aged man's face changed suddenly, and when he said this, he glanced around, as if he was afraid of being heard by something.
Yun Chuqi said: "How did they die?"
The bald young man said: "After they die, there will be a strange hole on the ground nearby, the strange hole is about 100 meters deep, the mouth of the tank is thick, the body of the deceased is at the bottom of the hole, it is said that only a pool of blood is left after death......
Yun Chu said: "Could it be that the demon beast did it?"
The bald young man denied: "I thought so at first, but I heard them say that in addition to a pool of blood and water at the bottom of the cave, there are only the clothes of the deceased, and there are no demon beasts at all." Could it be that when the demon beast eats people, it has to dig a hole and hide inside, and then come out after eating?"
Hearing this, everyone waiting to enter the city took a light breath, this incident is indeed very bizarre......
One person said in a low voice: "Listen to Mr. Shenxu say, this is the soul of the dead asking for his life, those souls are coming for the second master, but the second master is a deep cultivator, and the dead soul can't help him, so he can only attack the guests of the Zhou Mansion." β
Hearing the words "Mr. Shenxu", Yun Chu's eyebrows jumped, it seems that he is really in this Red Rock City, great...... A shocked voice sounded in his ears again, "How did Master Tuesday offend those dead souls?"
The bald young man said in a low voice: "Tell you, originally this Red Rock City was a large cemetery, and in order to build this city, Lord Tuesday destroyed hundreds of tombs, and those souls have been cultivating for several years in order to take revenge on Lord Zhou, and now they are collecting debts from him!"
Just as they were talking, the bearded guard appeared to the side, but seeing him with a dark face, he said in a deep voice, "What are you talking nonsense?"
The bald young man and the others were suddenly dumbfounded, lowered their heads and said, "No...... Nothing, we didn't say anything. β
The bearded guard said coldly: "If you dare to bewitch the crowd again, beware of your head." With that, he returned to the city gate.
At this time, there was a shouting sound behind him, and when he looked back, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old long-haired boy was walking this way. Six servants hugged him in the center and shouted, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
The people who entered the city gave way one after another, as if they were very jealous of each other.
The long-haired young man strode with his head held high, holding a folding fan in his hand, clearly without the intention of queuing, and came directly to the city gate.
"Young Master Han is here, you are also here to participate in the happy event of the grandfather's family on Tuesday, please come in!" The fierce color on the bearded guard's face disappeared, he bowed deeply, and said respectfully.
The long-haired young man showed an undeniable look, spread the folding fan in his hand, and said, "That's nature, thank you for your hard work." With that, he swaggered into the city.
At this time, a plainly dressed teenager complained: "Why can he go in without queuing?
It wasn't too loud to say it, but it came clearly into the ears of the bearded guard.
The bearded guard raised his eyebrows and said, "Who just said that?"
The bearded man's cold drink startled the plain-clothed young man, and he hurriedly held his breath. Yun Chu judged that the young man was about ten meters behind him.
"Which cheap life said it just now, stand up yourself. The long-haired boy came to the bearded guard and flicked the fan in his hand, a smile on his face.
The people lining up to enter the city looked at each other and remained silent.
Seeing this, the long-haired young man folded the fan in his hand, smiled evilly, and said, "Okay, don't you want to come out." In that case, I don't think you should go into the city!
Time passed minute by minute, and no one still said a word, perhaps out of disgust with the long-haired boy and unaccustomed to his bullying look. Yun Chu clenched his palms, damn it, does he want to consume it like this?!
"That's what I said. The plainly dressed boy stood up, as if he didn't want to delay everyone's time.
The long-bearded guard glared at him angrily and said in a deep voice: "Disqualified from entering the city, you get out!"
The young man in plain clothes thought that he was going to be beaten badly, but he didn't expect it to be so easy, and said, "Just go, I didn't want to go in anyway." After saying that, he left in a hurry.
"Stop. The long-haired young man sneered, shook off the folding fan in his hand, and said, "I didn't tell you to leave, you dare to take a step?"
When the plain-clothed boy heard this, he kicked his legs apart and was about to flee. The long-haired boy closed the folding fan in his hand and chased after him. I saw that he was as fast as lightning, and almost in the blink of an eye, he stopped the long-haired boy.
Yun Chu's eyes froze, and he secretly sighed at such a fast speed!
Knowing the noble identity of the other party, the plain-clothed young man showed a look of trepidation on his face, and said, "What are you going to do? β
The long-haired boy laughed, "That's your business, but I didn't let you go." What did you just scold, tell me again?"
"Didn't say anything. The plain-clothed boy turned his head.
The long-haired young man's face changed, and he said, "You didn't say anything? You and I am deaf? Why don't I invite your parents and let them educate you?" What do you think?"
"What's the matter with them?" the plain-clothed young man's face turned red, he knew that the other party would use this method, for fear of implicating his family, so he wanted to escape.
The long-haired young man smiled evilly: "You kneel down and kowtow to me ten times, and I will spare you." β
The plain-clothed young man gritted his teeth and said angrily: "We are all lining up here, why can you disobey the rules?
"What? do you want to compare yourself to me......? What kind of identity do you have, don't you know in your heart?, why are you so naΓ―ve?" the long-haired boy laughed.
Yun Chu nodded the tip of his nose and thought: "This plain-clothed young man is also upright, but it's a pity that he is not the opponent of the other party, if no one helps him today, he will be unlucky." β
At this time, the bearded guard came over and said, "Forget it, I'll just pretend that I didn't hear anything, just for the sake of the second master's face, bypass this kid." β
The long-haired young man waved his folding fan, clapped his hands, and said, "Okay, for the sake of Master Zhou, Young Master Ben will bypass you." Humble thing, don't you get out of here?"
The plain-clothed young man clenched his fists, turned his head, and left with hatred.
Afterwards, the bearded guard continued to check, and the long-haired young master entered the city.
Yun Chu observed the front, several people were rejected one after another, and one of them complained: "I don't go to attend the happy event of my grandfather's house on Tuesday, why don't you let me in?
The bearded guard said coldly: "This is the city lord's rule, do you have any opinions?
The man did not dare to say anything more, so he turned his head and left.
After that, only five of the dozen or so people entered the city, and Yun Chu didn't understand the reason, and soon it was his turn, thinking: "If they don't let me in, they will have to rush hard!"
Thinking like this, he saw the bearded guard look him up and down, and nodded, looking very strange. The other guard reached out and grabbed him, Yun Chu didn't know what he meant, and was ready to fight back whenever something was wrong.
The guard just patted him lightly and said, "Yes, yes, let's go in, don't be late." β
Yun Chumei's heart jumped, this ...... Why? They realized in an instant that most of them had recognized the wrong person! In order to prevent accidents, they immediately entered the city.
