Chapter 264: Preparing for War
Of course, this does not rule out that those ghosts have revenge and complaint. After all, Lanling City has been closed for 50 years, and it is estimated that most of the influential people have been played to death.
In this way, after a long afternoon, although there was no big gain, it finally allowed Bai Qingwan and Sheng Jiaojiao to adapt to the environment here. Of course, in the face of the occasional sudden screams in the black air, everyone will inevitably be frightened. But the good thing is that everything is slowly getting used to.
In the evening, everyone got together and began to discuss the news that they had inquired about today. After all, fifty years have passed, and the ghost knows whether Fengxian Tower still exists, and whether anyone who knows the inside story is still alive?
However, it was only the first day, and they couldn't find out about the real news at all.
No, according to the news that everyone has worked hard to hear, I can barely summarize the following content.
First of all, this black air has been around since more than 50 years ago. When it first appeared, the black qi was not as gentle as it is now.
How so? Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles, you know? That's a great way to describe this.
Thinking back then, I don't know how many people's homes, overnight, the black gas surged, and all the doors were destroyed.
Of course, most of the dead people in this are not good people. There are those who are unkind to the rich, there are those who bully others, and there are villains who collect protection money.
In short, it's those who couldn't manage it before, and they can't sue it, and the one who dies is called a must. The only pity is that as soon as this black gas is shot, it will be a complete annihilation, and not even a cat or dog will be left, which is too cruel.
However, the worst are those nobles, who have large families and many people, so they are more likely to produce some moths. That is, since the time of the fight, the nobles of this Lanling City have moved and died. Most of the few remaining households are also extremely unprosperous.
Maybe that's the legendary blessing in disguise. The population is sparse, but the discipline is stricter, such as the family of the old city lord of Yu, who is passed down from generation to generation, and it is often easy for white-haired people to send black-haired people.
As for the formation of black gas, there are different opinions. Some say that it fell from the sky, some say that evil spirits came to the world, and there are even worshippers of black qi, saying that black qi is here to do the right thing for heaven.
Of course, the above statements are all from the young people of Lanling City. Mo Keke, who listened to it, couldn't help but sigh: "This imagination seems to be quite rich." ”
But if you want to talk about reliable news, there are actually some.
Among them, it is widely spread that a few rich children spoiled a beautiful girl, and then the girl turned into an evil spirit and came to take revenge. Presumably, most of the girls are fairies, but who is the rich man? Are you still alive now?
Thinking of this, Mo Keke is really a little irritable. After all, with this bit of news, isn't that as much as Master Jing Ci knows? But there is no way, who let Mrs. Jingci's age be there, no matter what, people should be considered to have had contact with Xian'er herself back then.
And right now, these young people in Lanling City are just spreading falsehoods. But if you want to find some old people, then I'm afraid you will get someone's home. Thinking about it this way, a group of people can't help but feel a little melancholy.
Time flickered, and it was the night of the third day. I don't know why, this night, Mo Keke only felt that his heart began to panic inexplicably. There is something I haven't handled well, but when I think about it, it doesn't seem to be anything important at all.
Anyway, in this heart, I just didn't come to be restless.
However, Bai Qingwan and Sheng Jiaojiao were also quite uneasy when they saw Coco's appearance. Fortunately, Cheng Shijia attaches great importance to his daughter-in-law's mentality, and feels that since his daughter-in-law feels uneasy, he will sleep less tonight and accompany his daughter-in-law to sit in the courtyard more.
If something really happens, then you can also take precautions in advance, if there is nothing to do, you should accompany your daughter-in-law, it's a big deal, you will get up a little later tomorrow.
Of course, the two of them are so restless, and the other people in this courtyard will naturally be uneasy. Although on the surface, everyone is resting separately, but in fact, everyone is also breathing a sigh of relief in their hearts.
After all, Mo Coco's luck has always been against the sky.
Sure enough, at midnight, the black gas from all directions suddenly began to pour up a steady stream of the house, looking like it was accumulating strength.
Coincidentally, at this time, Cheng Shijia and Mo Keke happened to be sitting on the wall watching the moon.
As soon as he saw this scene, Mo Keke was inexplicably relieved in his heart. And Cheng Shijia on the side also calmly began to beckon everyone to get up and prepare for the war.
At the same time, he was also full of pride in his heart, and said secretly: As far as my daughter-in-law's intuition is concerned, ordinary people really can't compare.
Of course, Cheng Shijia is not the only one who is proud, looking at the black gas coiling over the courtyard, this group of people also admires Mo Keke in their hearts.
As for what to think of black gas? That's not simple, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth.
Anyway, no matter how you look at it, this thing is probably evil. Coincidentally, on this trip, they brought the most black dog blood, peach wood swords, and of course, copper coin swords and black donkey hooves, which were also not a lot at all.
Seeing that the people were almost there, Mo Keke wanted to take an arrow first and explore the way. But who knows, before she pulled the bow away, the bow was taken away by Cheng Shijia.
In this regard, Cheng Shijia also smiled and said: "Good, you go down first, this kind of thing, your husband can come." ”
Hearing this, Mo Keke's heart was also warm, and he responded obediently, turned over and went off the wall.
After all, shooting a bird in the head is not a joke. Whoever opens this first bow first, I am afraid that in the subsequent battles, he will naturally be "special care" by the black qi.
It's just that as Cheng Shijia shot an arrow, the arrow went straight through the black qi and rushed into the sky. Yes, except for some slight dissipation in the center of the black gas, it did not cause any special effects.
And after a few minutes, the black gas converged again, as if nothing could happen.
Seeing this, Cheng Shijia didn't want to make rash moves. In this way, a group of people began to look at the sky silently and began to study what was going on with this black gas?
An hour passed, and the black air in the sky was still gathering, and it didn't seem to be any different from an hour ago. At this time, everyone's necks began to ache unbearably.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the black qi, they just have been looking up for too long, and their necks are almost stiff.
