Chapter 43—"When Night Falls, Evil Spirits Emerge"
But before she can figure out how to get through these obstacles, she is now more interested in where these undead will be led by the sound of the bell.
The main thing now is that every time she moves forward, the streets change into something else, and the city seems to have a mind of its own, constantly changing.
Long Xuanxi didn't have complete confidence in breaking this illusion after illusion now, she needed to figure out what was going on in this city?
The dragon girl looked at the limping, rotten skins in front of her, with souls hanging in them, and said to herself: "The actions of these undead seem to be drawn by these bells, otherwise these undead souls would not suddenly all gather together and go to one place."
The dragon maiden mingled among the many undead, pretending to be drawn by the bell, and wandered in the direction of the city gate with the many undead.
The dragon maiden found that the closer these spirits got to the city gate and the closer they got to the bells, the more restless they became, and even the streets that were once full of goods changed completely.
Before the bell could be remembered, the street was not only full of goods, but also the crowd was bustling with all kinds of shouts, which was just a blink of an eye, and the rammed earth walls had also turned into a burning scorched earth and even some traces of cracking, and the well-behaved camels of the street were now like bulls and horses from hell, and the original brown soft hair turned black and tightly embedded in the skin and flesh, and the camels were also black and red with red light like a blazing fire. Even from a distance, it seemed that red blood could be seen flowing around the camel, and even the beautiful camel eyes that had been in the day were now blood-colored and neighing.
The most conspicuous thing in the whole street is the ancient waterway, the original gurgling and flowing spring has turned into a raging fire, like the erupting volcanic magma making a snorting sound, where is this fantasy city, it is obviously the city of hell.
The dragon girl mixed in with the many undead and looked left and right, and found that the original well-dressed people with different costumes had changed their appearance in an instant.
Passers-by who were originally dressed in gorgeous clothes, but in an instant, their kung fu also became ragged and dirty, some even lacked arms and legs, and their limbs were incomplete, and some even showed their white bones.
The dragon girl said in her heart: "Fortunately, these undead don't seem to have any consciousness now", while these spirits haven't paid attention to her, the dragon girl quietly retreated to the back of the team and walked to the waterway.
Xuanxi took off his robe and put it on the fire, and immediately became full of holes.
The dragon girl then buttoned her robe to the top of the city wall and tossed it for a while, and then rolled herself to the ground.
The dragon girl glanced at her current self and said, "Well, it's a bit similar now, wearing this body, isn't that the undead who just crawled out of the dirt?" ”
After the dragon girl finished the operation, she immediately lowered her head and hurried to keep up with the "army", and continued to move forward with the large army.
The dragon girl found that the closer she got to the city gate, the more lively the undead became, and her mouth also emitted some corpse words that the dragon girl couldn't understand.
"Click...", the crowd in front of him suddenly stopped, and the dragon girl was caught off guard and hit the evil spirit in front of her.
The dragon girl said in her heart: "What's the matter, why don't you leave, but it really hurts", Long Xuanxi touched his forehead and said: "It must be red."
The dragon girl looked up to see what had happened, but as soon as she looked up, she saw a grimace that was half rotten and half skeleton.
"Ah...", before the pronunciation of the word Ah was fully shouted, the dragon girl immediately covered her mouth.
It's not that she hasn't seen it, and she has never been afraid of it even more than this, but the soul that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes and stared at her really hasn't seen it, in the past, these evil spirits only had to run away when they saw her, and the dragon girl stared at the evil spirit with wide eyes, but she didn't know that her current appearance was not better than the undead in front of her, and the undead looked at the exaggerated appearance of the dragon girl but was so frightened that she took a step back, and then quickly picked up the eyeballs at the feet of the dragon girl and put it back, the undead looked at the dragon girl and shivered all over her body and immediately turned her head back.
"Is she disgusted by ghosts? But fortunately, it was not found at all? ”
As soon as the spirits reached the tower, the bell stopped, and after three bells, the spirits were completely awakened.
The dragon girl said in her heart: "It's no wonder that the downstairs of Daocheng suddenly stopped, but what's going on with this bell?" ”
The dragon girl guessed in her heart, "Could it be that the bell is announcing the hour?" Look at the sky, it is the time of day, it is the time of nightfall, the time when the spirits of the dead begin to emerge."
After the three bells rang, the gloomy night terror descended in unison, and the terrible cries of these evil spirits added a little chill to the blackness.
As if summoned, these souls began to become restless and let out a terrible ghost scream, and those undead who were originally like puppets raised their skeletal hands and continued to rush to the city gate, but there seemed to be something blocking the way of these undead at the city gate, and the undead were constantly bounced back.
The dragon maiden said in her heart: "What is it that is strange about this city gate that can make these souls so "go forward and follow"? ”
The dragon girl quietly avoided the undead and hid in the shadows to take a closer look.
The dragon girl said: "It turned out to be an enchantment, but outside the city tower is just a long stretch of yellow sand, why do these undead want to go out with the risk of their souls scattering."
"Amitabha", a deep voice sounded in the sky.
"Where's the voice?"
When the dragon girl looked up, she saw a dazzling golden light shining over the gloomy city.
The dragon girl took a closer look through her fingers and turned out to be a "little monk with an indifferent heart".
"Amitabha, when the time comes, the dead wake up, good and good."
When the dragon girl heard the little monk's voice, she still wiped her eyes unwillingly, and looked at each other carefully.
The dragon girl said: "Little monk, sure enough, it's you, it seems that my guess is not wrong, your little monk is deliberate, deliberately led her to the Moqing Temple, deliberately told her the origin of the Moqing Temple, and asked her to find the city lord, but if all this is done by the little monk on purpose, then what is it for?" ”
The dragon girl suddenly remembered a voice in her mind, "Huangquan Imprint", "By the way, it is the Huangquan Imprint, but she really doesn't have the Huangquan Imprint, and the firmament is impossible, even if so, why is this little monk?" She wondered, was it just because she was more likely? ”
The dragon girl looked at the little monk suspended above the desert city and his senior brothers and said, "What is this for?" ”。
The ten monks were back to back, their eyes shining golden light in each of the ten directions, which was exactly the same as before they entered this illusion.
"The World of the Ten Directions? It seems that although there is only one illusion, this city of the dead may not be? ”
"Amitabha...", these undead spirits attacked the city gate like crazy when they heard the Buddhist name of the monks, and these undead seemed to want to escape from here.
The dragon girl looked at these monks, and then looked at the actions of these undead spirits one after another, and she also guessed this matter.
The dragon girl remembered that the little monk had also said that it was the master of the city of illusion who brought them to this illusion, and it was the city lord here who helped them place these undead.
But this city of illusions is ancient, how long can it be used? No one knows, and the city lord has clearly informed this ancient realm that it is declining day by day, not to mention that it is a miracle that these undead have been attacking this illusory city day and night like tonight for so many years.
The dragon maiden said in her heart: "These undead are attacking the city gate like this, is this city gate an enchantment to the outside world?" If that's the case, it makes sense."
"Amitabha...".
The dragon girl watched the ten monks in the sky above the city of the dead and kept chanting the Buddha horn one by one, and as the Buddha horn became faster and faster, the undead in the city let out more painful ghost sounds.
The dragon maiden said in her heart: "No wonder these undead will attack this city gate even more after the first Buddha call, it turns out that the power of these undead will be weakened by the monks in the future."
The dragon girl looked at these monks with golden light in her eyes, her hands were folded, and her mouth kept chanting words, and suddenly ten people shot out at the same time and released a large amount of spiritual power in ten directions, and the entire city shone out a huge barrier that was almost transparent under the wrapping of spiritual power.
"How can there be such a huge barrier? No? This is not a simple enchantment, this is more like a huge formation, and the enchantment alone can't protect this city at all? ”。
The dragon girl looked at the movements of the monks in the sky above and should still be maintaining the magic circle of this city, while repairing the magic circle, it can be clearly seen that the subtle cracks in the enchantment of the city gate are more solid under the maintenance of the monks,
And the undead who swarmed away were bounced farther away, and their strength was constantly weakening, which was the inevitable result of strengthening the formation.
The dragon girl hid in the corner and watched everything in front of her. The dragon maiden, who thinks she is hidden enough to be hidden, will never be discovered by these undead, not to mention that she still has this bone whistle.
But she never expected that she would be discovered like this, and the undead who were originally struggling to attack the city gate suddenly turned their heads and looked at her in unison.
It's a pity that the current dragon girl doesn't have any thoughts on anything else, at this time the dragon girl just vigilantly looks at the evil spirit in front of her who wants to skin and tear her apart, where is this the enthusiastic and kind people in the daytime? This is clearly the Avenger who has returned from hell.
"By the way, bone whistle, the little monk said that if there is danger, you can blow it."
"Whew... Whew...", the sound of the bone whistle was extremely penetrating, and the dragon girl couldn't wait to plug her ears.
"No wonder it is said that as long as this bone whistle is in hand, you can pass the position", although this city is weird, but this territory is limited, and the sound of this bone whistle can penetrate this city!
But the bone whistle blew for a long time, and the monks did not react, but the undead got closer and closer.
It's not that these monks don't want to come to the rescue, it's just that every night they need to maintain the circle here to resist the night attacks of the evil spirits.
They had to stay in their place all night until dawn, and if they left their place, the barrier that protected the desert city and the space were at risk of collapsing, so even if they heard the dragon maiden's plea for help, they couldn't do anything, and any distraction was enough to plunge the world into an abyss from which they could never recover.
"This damn monk...", the eyes of tens of thousands of souls stared at the dragon girl, who knew that it was the eyes of the hunter on the prey.
"You..., you... Don't come here, my meat is not delicious, and you will not escape if you eat it."
"Run, run away", suddenly a voice sounded in the head of the dragon girl.
"Run, run...". The voice in my head sounded again
Only then did the dragon girl suddenly react.
"Yes, escape... Run...", the dragon girl ran two steps to the left and two steps to the right: "Run, escape... Flee, but where to flee".
Just as the dragon girl hesitated, the inexplicable force from before pushed her out again.
"Hey, can you not do this every time, can you communicate in advance next time."
The man appeared when he saw that Xuanxi was far away from this dangerous place.
The man shook his head and said, "This stupid girl really hasn't grown at all?" ”
