Chapter 2022: Mission Failure
"With its dark red walls, the designer aesthetic of this city is really different. Lin Tian said strangely, although it looks more shocking like this, but the dark red color is very depressing, after living in such a place for a long time, will the ghosts here also become irritable?
Mu Yun stopped his horse in front of the city gate, looked up at the gloomy sky, and said faintly: "Blood Sea City was not like this, it is said that a long time ago, there was a bloody rain in the sky, and after the rain stopped, the city walls here turned dark red. ”
"According to the records of exorcism, the blood rain in the sky, the howling of ghosts and gods, this kind of vision of heaven and earth only appears when something big happens, what happened in the underworld at that time?" Zhang Lingyu's good-looking brows furrowed.
Mu Yun's eyes were confused for a moment, and he said, "I don't know, the time is too long, and many things that have been handed down are incomplete." ”
"Get out of the way, get out of the way......"
Just as a few people were talking, there was a rush of shouting, and six men, each dressed in leather armor and carrying a scimitar at his waist, rushed to the city gate.
Two of them were carrying a stretcher, on which lay a man, but the man was only half-cut off, his legs had been severed, and the broken wound was wrapped in rags, which were dyed black.
The man struggled in agony, his expression was hideous, but his hands and body were fixed on the stretcher, unable to move, and his mouth was sealed so that he could not shout.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way......" The person who came shouted urgently, and Lin Tian pulled the reins, drove the war horse aside, and made way out of the city gate.
The group passed quickly, and the guards at the city gate did not stop them, and even gave way out, and several people quickly disappeared into the city, and the ghosts who came in and out stopped to watch, but no one knew what was happening.
"The one with the broken leg is a Nakshatra. Lin Tian looked at Mu Yun and said in a deep voice.
Mu Yun nodded, with doubts in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"That person, oh no, that yaksha is so miserable, what happened?" Xiao Manxuan asked in a low voice, the little girl's face was already a little tired from the long journey, and at this time, a person who was only half of it was lifted, frightened, and his face was a little nervous.
The onlookers also saw the tragic situation of the Yaksha, and were too frightened to speak, and the city gate became dead for a while, strange and depressing.
"If they are scattered, they are all scattered, and whoever blocks the passage of the city gate again, they will all be arrested. The gate guards shouted and dispersed all the onlookers.
"Who are they, and why can they bring weapons?" Lin Tian looked in the direction of the city gate and asked strangely, he was naturally referring to the person who rushed in just now.
"Soul hunters, a bit like the bounty hunters of your human world, do things when you give money. There are some tricky things in the Underworld Mansion, and they will also hire them to do it, and these soul hunters may have encountered some danger just now. Mu Yun explained simply, but his voice was a little dull.
"They can't go to the sea of blood, right?" Xiao Manxuan said suddenly.
Hearing Xiaoniu's question, Mu Yun's face was not good, he was silent for a while, and drove his horse towards the city gate guards, Lin Tian didn't know what she was going to do, so he had to follow.
When the guards saw several people coming on war horses, their faces suddenly became serious, and their backs straightened, because they not only recognized the war horses, but also recognized Mu Yun's identity.
"I've seen Lord Impermanence. The guards saluted in unison, greeting each other, and the voices were loud.
The ghosts who came in and out all heard the voice of the guards, and they all subconsciously stayed away from Lin Tian and the others, probably frightened by the word "impermanence".
Whether in the underworld or the human world, "impermanence" is not a pleasant name, and its appearance is often accompanied by coldness and death.
"Hmm. Mu Yun snorted coldly, his face expressionless: "What happened just now?"
"Back to Lord Impermanence, it's been several times since those soul hunters failed in their missions. The little leader of the guard replied respectfully.
"What task?" Mu Yun didn't dismount, still asking condescendingly.
In the human world, if the superior was so high, he would be criticized, but the little leader of the guard took it for granted, and he was not dissatisfied, but replied with a smile: "Lord Impermanence, many evil spirits have recently appeared in the wild of Blood Sea City, which seriously threatens Blood Sea City, and the city lord sent troops to exterminate them, and achieved certain results." ”
"But for some reason, those evil spirits will corrode weapons, and the weapons of the city defense army are greatly damaged, and the spare weapons in the arsenal are almost depleted. The Forger plans to create a new batch of weapons that can resist the corrosive effects of evil spirits, including an ore called the Blood Spirit Stone. ”
"This kind of blood spirit stone is only produced near the sea of blood, because it is too dangerous there, the city lord's mansion issued a collection task and hired soul hunters to collect it. But there have been several groups of soul hunters who have failed, light ones like the ones just now, and serious ones that haven't returned. ”
The little leader of the guard carefully explained, his eyes trembled a few times when he spoke of the sea of blood, and he tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart in order not to make a fool of himself in front of the impermanent adult.
After hearing this, Mu Yun frowned deeply: "Although Blood Sea City is close to the Blood Sea, it has always been peaceful, why are there a large number of evil spirits nearby?"
"I don't know, I don't know, you can ask the city lord about this. The little leader replied respectfully.
Mu Yun's eyes flickered, and then she waved her hand to let the little leader retreat, and she turned her head to look at Lin Tian and the others: "It seems that we are going to go to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire about the news of the Sea of Blood." ”
"No problem, those soul hunters who have been to the Sea of Blood will bring back some information. Lin Tian agreed with her decision.
The four of them drove their horses into the city gate, and the guards watched Lin Tian and the others go away, with respect and envy in their eyes.
"Impermanence has appeared in our small place. ”
"Yes, there are a few others, the aura is extraordinary, and it is not simple. ”
The guards whispered, their tones full of amazement, they were respectful to Yipin Impermanence, not only because of their high position, but also because of Yipin Impermanence can fight and have high combat power, so they obey.
The streets of Blood Sea City are smaller than Fengdu City, and the buildings on both sides are not as magnificent as Fengdu City, which can also be seen that Fengdu City is the main city, but Blood Sea City is as lively as ghosts.
Lin Tian and the four of them rode war horses and walked on the streets of Blood Sea City, suddenly becoming the focus. Because all the ghosts in the streets were on foot, even the patrolling city guards did not ride horses.
The ghosts and spirits here do not float around as they imagined, but walk like normal people.
"We're big stars. Xiao Manxuan smiled, a little helpless.
Whether in the human world or the underworld, having a good mount will increase the chances of turning heads, just like driving a supercar on it, which will always be the center of attention.
Mu Yun stopped, Lin Tian looked up, and in front of him was a magnificent building, with three words engraved on the plaque in front of the door: City Lord's Mansion. However, compared to the City Lord's Mansion in Fengdu City, the gate is still a little worse.
The guards outside the door saw Mu Yun and hurriedly ran over to salute: "Lord Impermanence." ”
