Chapter 197: Scene of the Ancient City

As soon as Peng Zhuang heard his companion's words, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and immediately swore and said: "I did see it, it's true, what am I lying to you doing, there is indeed a giant hand stretched out from the grave." ”

"Really?" "The shepherd was overjoyed, he had come for the news, and he looked curious, and said, "What is that giant hand like? Is it scary, like a ghost hand or something?"

"It's not a ghost hand. Peng Zhuang shook his head and said, "I think that hand is very strange, and when the dark sky disappears, I think I also saw that hand retracted into the Peerless Wasteland." ”

"Suddenly stretched out a huge hand?" said the shepherd, like a curious baby, listening to a legend: "Such a giant hand stretched out, will not grab anything, do you see what he has caught?"

"This ......" Peng Zhuang couldn't help but think about it and said, "When you say this, I also feel like I have something to grasp." ”

"Peng Zhuang, don't talk nonsense here. At this time, Qiurong Wanxue, who was on the side, said in a deep voice: "Prepare all the things you need, and we will enter the ancient city of Xudu in a while." ”

Peng Zhuang immediately smiled, said nothing more, and immediately checked his things, preparing to enter the ancient city of Xudu.

Mu Ling sighed softly in his heart, it was obvious that Qiurong Wanxue was wary of him. At this time, Mu Ling suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him, and when he looked up, it was Qiurong Wanxue, and her beautiful eyes were staring at him.

The pastoral spirit smiled, bowed to Qiurong Wanxue, and said with a smile: "This is the first time the kid has come to the ancient city of Xudu, and if he doesn't understand something, he still hopes that the patriarch can give him some pointers." ”

Qiurong Wanxue looked at Mu Ling for a while, and finally didn't say anything, just said lightly: "You just be careful, don't cause trouble." ”

This may sound like a pun, as it seems to be both an exhortation to the pastor and an implication to the pastor.

And the pastor only understood the literal meaning, and said to Qiurong Wanxue very politely: "Then thank you patriarch." ”

Now he can be sure that nine out of ten of the Lost God Island is related to the Peerless Aratonic Tomb, but unfortunately, he can't be alone with Peng Zhuang for the time being, and carefully ask about what happened that day. However, now it is certain that the Lost God Island is related to the Musou Arataka, and the pastoral is not in a hurry, all he has to do now is to find the key to open the Musou Arataka.

When Qiurong Wanxue and the six young disciples were all ready, Zhi Lao spoke: "Patriarch, we are here to stay to receive you, if there is something to signal immediately, we will go in to pick you up immediately." ”

"Okay, Elder Zhi is also careful. Qiurong Wanxue nodded and said in a deep voice.

Although the ancient city of Xudu has always been yearning, for countless people, the ghost city of Xudu is full of temptation, but only young people can enter the ancient city of Xudu, of course, middle-aged people and the elderly can also enter, as long as they are not afraid of death. The whole city is full of evil spirits, and no one can say exactly what kind of evil spirits they are. Only the blood of young people is strong, just like the sun that has just risen, and the blood of the whole person is full of vitality, which can dispel the evil spirit of the ancient city of Xudu.

Middle-aged people or the elderly can't, no matter how strong the middle-aged person's blood is, it is also a profit and a loss, as for the elderly, not to mention, the longevity is weak. It is precisely because of this that the blood and qi of the middle-aged and elderly will be eroded by the evil qi of the ancient city of Xudu, which will accelerate the aging of the blood qi.

For example, a middle-aged monk, in terms of Taoism, may live to be six or seven thousand years old, but once he enters the ancient city of Xudu, his blood and qi are corroded by the evil qi of the ancient city of Xudu, then, he will accelerate aging, and he may only live to be three or four thousand years old, and the longer he stays in Huidu City, the faster he will age.

It is precisely because of this that for millions of years, the ancient city of Xudu has become a paradise for the younger generation, and there was once a popular saying in the holy world: go to the ancient city of Xudu when you are young, so that this life will not be in vain, otherwise, you will never have a chance when you are old. Therefore, for millions of years, no matter how powerful an existence is, as long as it is no longer young, it is no longer willing to set foot in the ancient city of Xudu, unless it is forced to do so.

"Are you ready? Qiurong Wanxue glanced at Mu Ling at this time and said in a deep voice.

In fact, as the head of the clan, she didn't welcome an outsider like the pastor very much in her heart, for her, a human race of unknown origin like the pastor was mixed in with them, which would bring them risks, but the pastor was cheeky and followed, and it was not easy for Qiurong Wanxue to expel him, unless the pastor had obvious unfavorable tendencies against them.

The pastor showed his snow-white teeth and said with a smile: "Patriarch, don't worry, I am ready to set off at any time." ”

"Let's go, let's go into town. Qiurong Wanxue took a deep breath and led the way in front after speaking.

The six young people of the Snow Shadow Ghost Clan couldn't help but be excited, they were all coming to the Ancient City of Xudu for the first time, could they not be excited? Peng Zhuang, who was straight-hearted, shouted excitedly: "Ancient City, we are here!"

Peng Zhuang and the six of them are the most potential young disciples of the Snow Shadow Ghost Clan, and Qiurong Wanxue brought them here this time, in addition to having other purposes, it is also to take them through training and experience, so that they can have a long experience. Stepping into the ancient city of Xudu, they didn't go far before Qiurong Wanxue took them into a very large town, and as soon as they stepped into this town, anyone felt a lively atmosphere rushing to their faces. The town was very large, the streets were wide and bright, and the streets were full of people, monks flying in the sky, monks running on strange beasts, and people hawkers shouting and peddling.

"The ghost stone of Xudu, you can ask the ghost road, there is only one piece, come and buy it. There were vendors shouting in the streets.

"Sanjiang soul water, can nourish qi, can be alchemy, a bottle of three-tailed fish, come and buy it, walk by, don't miss it." ”

"The ghost weapon of the drunken capital, the best choice of the ghost clan, sold, sold, as long as there are 3,000 fish, there is only one in the city, come and buy it." ”

..................

The city is bustling with activity, with countless vendors shouting and shouting, and many people coming and going. When standing in such a town, people who don't know still think that they are in an ancient city, and who would think that this is a ghost town.

As soon as Peng Zhuang's six young people stepped into this town, they were immediately attracted by the liveliness here, just like Grandma Liu's first entry into the Grand View Garden, looking around and looking around full of curiosity about everything.

"Is this really a ghost town?" said some young people, who couldn't help but wonder if the town in front of them didn't look like a ghost town at all. When it comes to ghost towns, everyone thinks it's ghosts.

However, there is no ghost at all here, but it is more like a big town in the mortal world, full of excitement and popularity everywhere.

Standing in the middle of this town, the pastoral spirit couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart, the ancient city of Xudu, he is here again, this is a place full of mysteries, this is a place where ghosts can live. To be precise, it is a gathering place of obsessions, not real ghosts.

"Open your heavenly eyes, and you will know whether it is a human or a ghost, no, it should be said that it is obsession. Qiurong Wanxue said.

Hearing the patriarch's words, the six young people all opened their own heavenly eyes, and when they opened the heavenly eyes, they couldn't help but be terrified when they saw this town.

If it is a big town that is very lively, then this place must be like a sea of blood, surging, endless blood can contain this world!

However, when people open the eyes of heaven, they will see that there is a yin qi here, and the people who come and go in front of them have no flesh at all, and even the street vendors seem to be just shadows.

Such a huge city, it turned out to be almost bloody, how can this not be creepy, this place is like a dead city.

"How can someone look like a real person. Some disciples couldn't help but be surprised, some of the people walking on the street looked like phantoms, and some people looked very real, if it weren't for the lack of blood on his body, he wouldn't have been able to see that they were ghosts.

"There are also strong and weak in the ancient city of Xudu, and the strong obsession looks no different from that of ordinary monks, except that there is no flesh, the weak obsession can be seen through under the eyes of heaven, it is just a phant. Qiurong Wanxue deliberately let Peng Zhuang and them have a long experience and explain patiently.

"Behold, those demons have flesh. Peng Zhuang suddenly pointed to a group of young people coming in the distance, and couldn't help but say.

Qiurong Wanxue hurriedly said in a deep voice: "Don't be rude, they are all monks who came in from outside, just like you. ”

Hearing this, Peng Zhuang couldn't help but laugh dryly in embarrassment, and hurriedly withdrew his fingers, not daring to be presumptuous.

In fact, there are many young monks who come in every day in the ancient city of Xudu, some come to see the excitement, some come for the legendary treasures of the ancient city of Xudu, and some come for the key to the legendary unparalleled desolate tomb in the ancient city of Xudu.

"Sell the stone talisman, the ancient talisman of the ancient clan, come and buy it. "Autumn Rong Wanxue led everyone through a street, and many vendors were shouting.

At this time, Peng Zhuang took a fancy to the stone talisman in the hand of a peddler, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "How much does your stone talisman cost?"

"Cheap, cheap, six-tailed fish. As soon as the vendor saw that there was business coming to the door, he immediately smiled and said very enthusiastically.

"Six-tailed fish, what is a six-tailed fish. When the other young disciple heard such a price, he couldn't help but be very curious, and asked hurriedly.

"The six-tailed fish refers to the Shouyang fish, and in the ancient city of Xudu, the common currency is not the spirit stone, but the Shouyang fish. Qiurong Wanxue shook her head at Peng Zhuang, and then explained.

Hearing this, Peng Zhuang had no choice but to give up, he didn't have any Shouyang fish at all.

"Patriarch, where are we going now? Without the Shouyang Fish, we can't buy anything here. Another disciple couldn't help but say.

"Go to Houhai, only Houhai can net Shouyang fish, we just pass by here. Qiurong Wanxue said.

"Hey, let's hurry up then. When Peng Zhuang heard this, he couldn't help but be extremely excited, and he couldn't wait to fly to Houhai now.

And Qiurong Wanxue is not the first time to come, and she is not in a hurry to rush to Houhai immediately, she intends to let Peng Zhuang and them open their eyes and gain more knowledge.

When they walked through a street corner, Peng Zhuang and the others saw a young man who was selling things there, and he actually used spirit stones to trade, which made Peng Zhuang couldn't help but be curious, and immediately leaned over and asked: "Didn't you use Shouyang fish in the ancient city of Xudu, why did you actually use spirit stones, what do you sell, let me see?" said and excitedly aimed at the goods on his stall.

And Peng Zhuang's excessive enthusiasm attracted the young man's fierce eyes, he glared at Peng Zhuang, didn't have the anger to drive people away, and said: "Lao Tzu is not a ghost, I am a human, wrong, I am a ghost clan!"

This young man's violent reaction frightened Peng Zhuang a lot, he hurriedly opened the eyes of the sky to take a look, only to find that the other party was not a ghost, which frightened Peng Zhuang extremely embarrassed, and immediately apologized and said: "Heh, heh, heh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought you were a ghost, no, no, no, it's an obsession, it's an obsession." So saying, he ran away in dismay.

Seeing this scene, the pastoral spirit who had been following the team couldn't help but wonder, Peng Zhuang's group of boys didn't know much about the ancient city of Xudu at all.

In fact, they don't blame Peng Zhuang, the Snow Shadow Ghost Clan is not a small clan, in the Snow Shadow Ghost Clan, ordinary disciples have no chance to come to a place like the Ancient City of Xudu, so it is normal for them not to know about the Ancient City of Xudu.

"There are a lot of people from outside who stay and do business in the ancient city of Xudu, and there are not only ghosts here, but also many young monks, who will see more people in the future. Qiurong Wanxue reminded Peng Zhuang of them.

"I see, they're not afraid to live with ghosts?" said a female disciple among the six young disciples, who couldn't help but feel a little creepy.

Think about the fact that the residents of the entire ancient city of Xudu are lifeless obsessions, living in such a place is no different from living in a real ghost town, the entire ancient city is full of ghosts, and it is creepy to think about it.

"In the ancient city of Xudu, as long as you don't mess with them, the ghosts of the ancient city of Xudu will not come to provoke you. It's best not to provoke them, there is no good end to being an enemy of ghosts in the ancient city of Xudu!" Qiurong Wanxue reminded them.

In fact, Qiurong Wanxue is right, the people who come to the ancient city of Xudu are either here to watch the excitement or come to seek wealth, they don't need to be enemies with ghosts at all, more often, they need to trade with the ghosts of the ancient city of Xudu, so the people who come to the ancient city of Xudu are not willing to be enemies with ghosts, or conflict with ghosts.

In the ancient city of Xudu, if you are an enemy of ghosts, I am afraid that it will be difficult to leave the ancient city of Xudu alive.

Qiurong Wanxue took Peng Zhuang and the six of them and the pastor to walk and watch, and finally it took two full days to reach their destination Houhai. If you want to have a harvest when you enter the ancient city of Xudu, then the first stop must be Houhai. Because the common currency of the ancient city of Xudu is not the spirit stone from the outside world, but the Shouyang fish, and the Shouyang fish is only available in Houhai.

Houhai is more of a lake than a sea, in fact, it is a very large lake, and when standing in front of Houhai, many people will be creepy. The sea water in front of you is actually black, and when you stand on the shore of Houhai and look at the whole Houhai from afar, it will make people feel gloomy, and the whole Houhai is like a huge evil ghost opening its bloody mouth, which can swallow people at any time.

"Houhai, I'm here, let's rush. As soon as they saw Houhai, Peng Zhuang and the six young disciples were not only not afraid, but they were extremely excited, especially Peng Zhuang, who couldn't wait to jump into the sea now to catch the Shouyang fish.

"Don't come nonsense. Qiurong Wanxue scolded Peng Zhuang and the six of them, and said in a deep voice: "Once you step into Houhai, you will never be able to get out again, and there will be no place to bury you." ”

Hearing the patriarch's words, Peng Zhuang and several of them were taken aback, and immediately stopped their steps, and couldn't help but be terrified, and a disciple couldn't help but say, "Really?"

"Houhai is a very dangerous place, and anyone who steps into the sea will die without a place to be buried, and will never be able to get out again, even if it is a great sage. Qiu Yixue solemnly warned Peng Zhuang and a few of them.

"Then how do we go about fighting the Shouyang fish? Peng Zhuang couldn't help asking.

"Looking for a ferryboat, only a ferryboat can enter Houhai. Qiurong Wanxue said: "If you don't cross the boat into Houhai, you will kill yourself." ”

"There—" A disciple's sharp eyes immediately saw a small boat parked on the seashore, but before they could react, they saw a dozen young people riding this small boat into the vast Houhai.
