Chapter 146: The Scarlet City in the Night Sky
Walking down the street wearing a mask?
According to the conventional routine, this kind of person is not ordinary at first glance. Want to - free - free - see - end - whole - version please Baidu search -
However, Mu Jiujiu only glanced at him and looked away. Whatever this person is, it has nothing to do with her.
At this time, the stall owner's mother-in-law also brought the grilled snow fish she had just served. The aroma was overflowing, and Mu Jiujiu's eyes suddenly lit up and stretched out his chopsticks.
I don't know if it's because she ate too much before or something else, this sherbet doesn't taste as good as she remembered at the beginning.
A sense of regret arises spontaneously.
Wen Yuan seemed to see what she was thinking, and said calmly: "The snow dew fish in the Drunken Immortal Residence is wrapped in green spirit leaves and roasted over a slow fire, and a special treatment technique is used, so it is normal for the taste to be different. ”
As soon as he said this, Mu Jiujiu suddenly remembered that when he and Wen Yuan first met, they were in the Drunken Immortal Residence.
She laughed when she thought about it, and said to Wen Yuan curiously, "How did you feel when you saw me for the first time?" ”
Wen Yuan snapped his fingers.
In fact, it was a pure coincidence that he came to the Drunken Immortal Residence at that time. The first time I saw her, there was no wave in my eyes, or even indifference. Even the encounter in the Yuehua Spirit Realm, he was mostly suspicious in his heart.
But although he is sometimes poisonous, he also understands that telling the truth at this time is a bit of a ruin to the atmosphere.
He didn't want to see a look of loss in her eyes.
While Wen Yuan was considering the words, Mu Jiujiu's attention had already been attracted by another place.
- The masked man sitting in the corner.
The reason why she noticed him was because she noticed that this person's gaze stayed on her for a while, and when she looked at the other person, he did not dodge, as if he was familiar with her?
Mu Jiujiu was suspicious in her heart, but the other party was wearing a mask, and she couldn't tell who he was.
She carefully looked at the other party's body and appearance, and could determine that this person was not Wen Wugui who was not the head and tail of the dragon, and it seemed that he did not have the memory of such a person......
Could it be that he knew the disciple of the Canglan Hall Master who was similar to her-Chi Qingqiu?
Thinking of this, she thought of the woman in the purple dress she met in the forest, and the words of the other party still echoed in her mind.
The bizarre death of Sheng Canglan and his apprentice......
Is this masked friend or foe?
Wen Yuan just wanted to speak, but saw her eyes staring at another place.
He looked over and saw a man dressed in fine clothes.
Although I couldn't see my face clearly, I could still see the knuckled hands and the touching corners of my lips.
Thinking of the first time they met, she also looked at herself intently for a while, and Wen Yuan couldn't help frowning.
Although I understand that there may be other reasons.
But at this moment, Wen Yuan keenly felt that his heart was a little uncomfortable.
Duan Qianxiao, who was innocently drinking soup on the side, suddenly felt that the temperature around him had dropped by a few degrees.
Sensing that the air suddenly became quiet, Duan Qianxiao turned his head to look at Mu Jiujiu, who was in a trance, and Wen Yuan, who had cold eyes beside him, and found that they didn't seem to be good people to chat with.
Looking diagonally across the street, Alec was drinking without saying a word, thinking of his language barrier......
Forget it, he'd better continue to drink the soup.
……
Mu Jiujiu was thinking about it here, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Wen Yuan's cold gaze, and he suddenly felt inexplicable.
"What's wrong with you?" She has always had the character of asking questions when she has something to say, and looked at Wen Yuan suspiciously.
"It's fine." Wen Yuan said lightly.
Your eyes, you feel like you're going to freeze all around, where do you look like you're fine? Mu Jiu Jiuxin said.
But she also understands the other party, usually when he puts on such a look, he just won't say anything anymore.
She had no choice but to smile.
At this time, the masked man got up and walked in the direction of Mu Jiujiu.
As soon as he got up, after taking a few steps, there was a strange wind around him, and he stepped on something slippery, and almost fell.
As soon as he stabilized his figure, a wind blade suddenly flew and hit his waist.
"Bang!"
The table was overturned, and the bowl on it toppled over and spilled on his robe.
Mu Jiujiu didn't see any of this, she heard the sound and turned around, only to see that the masked man had broken the bowl for some reason.
She thought, the other party is also a tall person, why is he so careless.
The masked man seemed stunned.
He glanced up at their table as if he had thought of something.
Then he turned around, paid the bill from the stall owner's mother-in-law, and left the place.
The person who saw the mask was gone, and nothing happened around, and Mu Jiujiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Duan Qianxiao glanced at the sky, it was not early at this time.
They called the stall owner's mother-in-law to pay the bill, and the stall owner collected the money and said with a smile: "A few noodle students, aren't they locals?" The night market here is very good, and you can go to see it in the evening. ”
When she said this, Mu Jiujiu suddenly became interested, and Duan Qianxiao was also a little curious when she heard it because she had been practicing swords in the Yue Sword Sect retreat for a long time.
Only Wen Yuan's expression was still faint.
Mu Jiujiu poked him, and seeing that he didn't react, he couldn't help but say cutely: "Let's go, let's go shopping together at night~"
Wen Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at her, but did not speak.
Mu Jiujiu really didn't understand why he was suddenly unhappy, thinking that there are so many days a month for women, maybe men also have a time when their mood is not high?
So she directly pulled the other party forward and comforted: "Wait a while, when you see something you like, I'll buy it for you." ”
Well, although she doesn't have any money, it's good to secretly borrow it from Brother Qianxiao later.
Wen Yuan glanced at her lightly, holding his hand, but he didn't object anything.
……
Night falls.
The starry sky dotted the boundless long night, and in the silence, a large and a small figure gradually walked in.
"Daddy, I see a city in the sky." A child bit the sugar gourd on the side of his mouth and pointed to the sky.
The adult who was holding his hand was surprised when he heard this, and he looked up and looked up at the sky.
The bright moon hung in the sky, sprinkling a faint moonlight. The silhouettes of the mountains in the distance gradually appeared, and they were reflected in a few hazy clouds.
Where are the cities?
"Don't talk nonsense!" The adult scolded the child.
The child blinked and pouted, "I'm not talking nonsense, it's true, it's still dark red." ”
When the adult heard this, he hammered the child's head.
"Every time I go to the school, I don't study well, and I don't cultivate spiritual power obediently, I always think about these strange things. If you talk nonsense, don't think about it next time! ”
"Oh." The child replied aggrievedly.
But there really is......
The figures of the two gradually faded away.
The overlapping gray clouds gradually moved, revealing the blood-red city hidden in between.
On the branch, a spirit bird tilted its head and flew over with its wings.
But it hadn't even touched the Blood City, and it didn't even have time to let out a long roar before it turned to powder.
……
Inside the Blood City.
There was no light, no wind. Ancient lamps with intricate patterns on them dimly illuminate the lobby.
Several men in dark robes with hoods walked in, standing still, as if waiting for something.
On the high platform, a burst of black gas suddenly floated, and a figure gradually appeared.
The moment he appeared, all the people around him leaned down.
This man is the "Herald", no one knows where he came from, he has always been mysterious, and he seems to have lived for a long time.
"Dou Wencheng is dead."
The "preacher" spoke in a light tone, without the slightest wave, as if he was saying something that did not concern him.
"Tell the Endless Lands to go ahead."
"Yes." The men responded in unison.
On the high platform, there is a coffin, and next to the coffin, there are dense strange patterns drawn, like an ancient totem.
The "herald" walked around the coffin, offered the table, and walked behind the high platform.
The heavy curtain was hiding something, and he raised his hand and lifted the heavy curtain.
It was a heart-wrenching scene, the thing had a human face and a beast body, and the light under its eyes flashed, as if it were alive. The lifelike wings are carved like obsidian, and it stretches out, as if it is about to spread its wings in the next second. Underneath are sharp claws that shimmer with a venomous glow.
The moment everyone saw this thing, a subtle and strange feeling rose in their hearts, as if it was a trembling and fear of the soul.
"The host has been found, let's get started."
"Yes."
There was a chant that seemed to come from afar, a rhythmic drum beating, the air seemed to change, and the ground shook slightly, as if something behemoth was about to wake up.
This game is too real
