238 In the ghost realm of the mountain
As the fog thickened and dispersed, Zhou Yi saw a majestic and gloomy archway, and the countless grimaces on it made him creepy and his scalp tingle.
The two ghosts stood under the torii and looked at him and Tanaka, who glanced at them fiercely and walked straight inside. Zhou Yi stiffened his head and followed closely behind.
"Strange, is the passage so easy to open now?" A ghost Ding was swept away by Tanaka's eyes, and he didn't dare to say anything until the other party disappeared.
The other ghost Ding was also afraid, and said: "Who knows, our level is too low, maybe people have some special means that we don't understand, so don't be nosy." ”
"It's said that this place has just been attacked, and anything strange may happen, so it's better to treat it as if you haven't seen it!"
……
About 20 minutes later, the fog outside the torii surged again, and the two ghosts looked at each other......
Luo Dan stood outside the tomb and whispered two words, a cloud of yin qi floated out of her chest, and she turned into her own appearance and made a few seals into the tomb, which easily activated the passage of the ghost world......
Lin Kai and Su Xiaoyue walked out of a distance behind the old ghost, and gradually figured out the environment here. It's an old-fashioned town with a two-kilometre radius, nestled between the mountains. The town is not free of ghosts, and they can occasionally be seen huddled in old houses, peering out as they pass by.
"Isn't there a day or night here?" Lin Kai saw that there was no sunlight in the ghost world, but it was in a bright state and could see normally, so he asked this question.
The old ghost didn't reply, and said: "There are, but it's the opposite of the outside world." During the day, it is dark and impossible to see. When it's night, it's daytime. ”
"No wonder, we came in at the time of the day, it's noon during the day!" Lin Kai was stunned. If you don't come in, you really won't ask these questions, and Diao Lao Ghost and Chen Fan naturally won't take the initiative to talk about so many things that are just daily rules in their opinion.
Even at noon, there was still gloom everywhere, for the sky was already a deep gray air, and everywhere was gray.
"The night here is not safe, on the contrary, it is far more terrifying than the outside world, especially in the wild, where many evil monsters appear and will attack and devour ghosts. Are we going to Zhongdu now? ”
As he spoke, he had taken the two of them out of town. When you see the barren mountains, all the plants are black, and the soil and rocks are also black, which is very desolate, and you can feel like ghosts haunting you at any time.
But in reality, ghosts are the normal residents of this place, and they need to face all kinds of sinister environments.
Lin Kai looked back at the dead and silent town, released the other ghosts to experience the environment here, and said, "Is there a map or a map of the distribution of forces!" ”
"No, but we all know the approximate distribution. The ghost realm of Bishan is only more than 400 kilometers away, full of mountains and wilderness, and there are few cities. Outside the ghost world, there is a vast life, and the ghosts stop. ”
"These hundreds of kilometers of ghost realm are controlled by the five ghost kings, and they are entrenched in these five ghost towns and rule the surrounding ghost towns." Diao Lao Ghost took a pipe and drew a simple orientation map on the ground. From here to the ghost town of Zhongdu, it is about 60 kilometers, but the nearest ghost town under the jurisdiction of Zhongdu is only about 20 kilometers.
"In the past, in peacetime, except for the powerful subordinates who were directly controlled by the Ghost King, all other ghosts could stay at will. But once there is war and turmoil, the ordinary ghosts of the middle and lower classes will be reduced to food reserves, and the situation will be very miserable. ”
"Even in normal times, some powerful and ruthless characters will plunder the weak ghosts and exploit their original ghost energy......"
Now that he has entered the ghost world, Diao Lao Ghost will tell him some information that he can't usually talk about by the way.
After all, the ghost world of Bishan is not the legendary underworld, nor does it have a complete social structure and ghost family, it is just a place where ghosts are concentrated. Most of the ghosts wander here with nothing to do, and the yin energy here is abundant for them to absorb naturally, so they don't need to find food, at most they simply build a low house to protect themselves.
But there are also some ghosts who are not willing to live in a muddy life, and exchange cultivation methods by helping powerful ghosts and ghost kings' subordinates, or being enslaved to do construction, or going to the wild to find useful materials.
It's not that there are no living people coming in and out here, and occasionally some cultivators still appear, as long as the strength is strong and can control the scene, they are not afraid of causing a siege by powerful ghosts.
There are not many materials that can be used to cultivate the Ghost Domain in the outside world, but here it is relatively rich. Lin Kai couldn't help but think, if he could solve the Ghost King of Zhongdu, maybe he would have the materials to help Ghost Ji refine the Ghost Domain Dojo.
It was difficult to get accurate information about the ghost king of Zhongdu here, so Lin Kai decided to sneak directly to the vicinity of the ghost city of Zhongdu.
More than thirty ghosts surrounded Lin Kai and Su Xiaoyue, and rushed along the mountain road to the nearest ghost town. A normal twenty-kilometer journey can be completed in two hours at most on their feet. But the road that the ghost walked was naturally not a broad avenue, and there were not many roads, no different from the wilderness, and the speed of Lin Kai and Su Xiaoyue was also greatly reduced because of this.
The black plants are generally low, and the ground is black and moist as if it had been watered with a layer of oil. The ghost didn't feel anything when he walked on it, but Lin Kai and Su Xiaoyue, two living people, felt very uncomfortable when they walked. He simply released the Yin Horse and rode with Su Xiaoyue, causing a burst of jealousy and trouble from the ghost queen.
After walking five or six kilometers, the ghost who was flying forward suddenly stopped. Lin Kai thought that she was going to make some trouble again, but he saw that a piece of ash suddenly spilled from her body and shot towards a bush nearby. The bushes shook violently, like something was struggling.
Lin Kai took a closer look and found that it was a long black snake with thick wrists hiding under the bushes, and at this time it was already wrapped in countless Gu worms. The long snake had one eye, and while twisting and struggling, it also emitted a vicious cold light and glanced at Lin Kai.
Two minutes later, the long snake had been devoured by Oni Ji's Yin Gu, and there was not even a scum left. In such an environment, she is like a fish in water.
There were no weaklings in the team, at least they were all at the level of demons, and after only an hour, they were outside another ghost town. These ghost towns have no walls and can be accessed at will, and they attract the attention of many ghosts as soon as they set foot on the streets.
The Yin Horse and the other spirits had already been put away outside, and let them follow along for a while, just to experience the environment here. At this time, Lin Kai and Su Xiaoyue were accompanied by Du Zhong and Li Youjin, as if the children of a cultivating family came to the ghost world with ghost servants to travel.
"There is no ghost market inn to entertain guests, and there are no restaurant goods, this mountain ghost world is just a pure ghost nest!" Lin Kai was a little disappointed, feeling that the ghost king here really didn't know how to operate.
"Even if there is a restaurant, do you dare to eat here?" Su Xiaoyue also smiled.
"After all, this is not a complete social form, the level of demand is not obvious, there is no commercial system, and the so-called dark currency is not in circulation......"
