Chapter 114: Yellowstone Town
The streets of Huangshi Town are deserted, and the cold wind makes this warm summer day like a depressed late autumn, with occasional people coming and going, but coming and going in a hurry, and there are no business people on the wide streets.
As a large village and a small town, all this seems normal, but it is strange everywhere and somewhat unreasonable.
This town is the closest town to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range within a radius of a hundred miles, it was originally a paradise for all kinds of monks, and the monks who enter and exit the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range will rest here to replenish their supplies, and now there is no figure of a monk in this situation.
The reason why Meron wanted to enter Yellowstone Town was also to take a rest, otherwise he would not delay the trip.
Regarding Hu Yan's reminder, Mei Long nodded slightly: "I'll pay more attention, find an inn to settle down in first." ”
No matter what weird things happen in this town, since I'm here, I won't leave like this.
If it has nothing to do with him, Meron will not meddle with rats, and if there are demon cultivators, it will be nothing, and he is still looking for them.
Meron walked most of the street without seeing anyone, and many shops were closed and not open, which made Meron a little speechless.
After walking for a few more minutes, I finally saw that an inn had not yet closed, but if it was a little later, it would be closed, and an old man was about to put a baffle on the inn, apparently also to close.
Meron hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "Wait a minute, old man, I want to stay in the hotel." ”
The old man was obviously startled when he heard Merlon's voice, and a fart squatted on the ground, looking a little flustered. However, seeing that the person who came was not something to be afraid of, but a normal person, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then got up from the ground, pulled Meron into the inn, and sped up the speed of the upper baffle.
"Young man, you should be a monk, why do you dare to come to Yellowstone Town at this time?"
After closing the shop, the old man found a chair and sat down, motioned for Meron to sit too, and then slowly spoke.
This old man looked like he was sixty or seventy years old, without the slightest fluctuation of Yuan Force on his body, and was obviously just an ordinary person.
"Well, I'm a monk and I'm going to go to the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range, so I've come here to settle down, and I want to take a break before I go. ”
Seeing that it was just an ordinary old man, and there was nothing suspicious about it, Meron relaxed his vigilance a little.
As for these words, Meron had already prepared them, and when he left the Dream Painting Academy, five crystal coins bought a map near the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, which not only contained the landforms of various known places, but also some brief introductions, and Yellowstone Town happened to be among them.
Hearing this, the old man didn't have any other ideas, after all, this place has a special geographical location, and people who enter and leave the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range usually come here to rest.
Although the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range is full of dangers, it is also full of opportunities, all kinds of heavenly treasures and demon beasts coexist, as long as you have the strength to take it away, it is a huge wealth.
There are more people like Meron who want to go to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, otherwise Yellowstone Town would not have changed from a deserted wilderness to a small town.
It's a pity that this was the original, not the present, and now it has completely changed.
The old man sighed slightly, and then continued to speak: "Hey, young man, I advise you not to enter the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, rest here for the night, and go back tomorrow as soon as possible." ”
Mei Long's eyes narrowed slightly, it seems that something really big happened in this Yellowstone Town, otherwise this old man would definitely not be like this.
"Old man, why do you say that?"
Listening to Meron's inquiry, the old man fell into a slight memory.
"Although Huangshi Town is not big, it is also very lively, but all this has changed now, from more than ten days ago suddenly haunted, now the people who can leave are gone, only we who wait for a few days to live, and do not want to die in a foreign country, so we stayed. ”
Listening to the old man's story, Mei Long knew what Huangshi Town had experienced.
Ten days ago, it was still bustling with all kinds of monks.
But one day, a strange thing happened in Yellowstone Town that changed all that.
A small inn with a lot of guests. After a night, the shop didn't open again, which made people curious.
There are inns here that don't close at night, but those that don't open in the morning never appear.
Some curious people wanted to see what was going on, but this curiosity, the two people who went to probe were frightened of physical incontinence on the spot, and it took a long time to return to normal, and they also said everything they saw.
In that inn, all eighty-one people died, and the death was extremely miserable, as if something had sucked the essence of the body dry, and turned into a dried corpse, it is estimated that if there is a fire, the corpse can be burned as dry firewood.
You must know that there are several Qi Gathering Period monks staying in this inn, and they all died unexplained and quietly.
What's more, this is not the end of the matter, it is just the beginning, and the next day sixty-four more people died, exactly the same as on the first day.
Then on the third and fourth days, people died in such a bizarre way every day, and the misery was exactly the same.
The people of the entire Yellowstone Town were panicked, saying that if there was a peerless demon here, the people in the entire town would be sucked up and die.
It's a terrible thing, no one dares to take it as a child's play, those people with lively minds began to relocate, until now the entire Yellowstone Town has become ten rooms and nine empty, and the empty wolves are crying out.
"And recently, there has not been peace in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, and before this happened, there were many monks who entered the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range and never came out. Even a few escaped occasionally, but they were all crazy, and they kept shouting that there were ghosts. ”
The old man was afraid that Meron would be young and vigorous, so he released another blockbuster bombshell.
Meron nodded slightly, but didn't say anything, but began to ponder in his heart.
This matter is too strange, the people of the academy have just reported that there are demon cultivators here, and this Yellowstone Town is haunted, this is simply too much of a coincidence.
It seems that it is not some ghost that caused all this, but the monk of the Demon Dao, but the demon cultivators have disappeared for many years, and many people have forgotten their existence, which will cause people to mistakenly think that they are ghosts.
"There are rooms upstairs, they are all empty, you can choose one to live in. If you are hungry, there is something to eat in the kitchen. ”
The old man looked at Meron in deep thought, and no longer bothered, he had already done his duty, and if Meron looked for death by himself, he would not be able to complain about others.
"Thank you, old man. ”
Meron didn't stop long, thanked him, and walked towards the second floor.
Although the second floor is uninhabited, everything is neat and tidy, there is no dust at all, and it is obvious that the old man will come to clean it every day.
After all, no matter what happens here, it is his home, his roots are here, and even if he is left alone, none of this will change.
"You kid pay more attention to yourself, since you choose to practice, you have to be careful, don't wait for me to remind you everywhere, that won't achieve the effect of experience at all." ”
casually found a guest room, and just as he was lying on the bed, the sound of Hu Yan Shougong came.
"Well, you old man can stay there wherever it's cool. ”
Mei Long could only show a helpless look, but he also knew that Hu Yan Shougong was like this, and it was also to train himself and prevent himself from becoming dependent, which would not achieve the effect of training at all.
