Chapter 398: Epidemic of Epidemics
The time of the night is fleeting, when the first rays of sunshine in the morning sprinkled from the sky, Sun Wukong and others have woken up from their sleep, and with their respective luggage, they all appeared at the door of the inn.
After a night of recuperation, the tiredness on everyone's cheeks had disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a touch of energetic activity.
Moreover, in yesterday's conversation with Xiao Er, Elder Song Yan had also roughly deduced what the strange incident that suddenly occurred in Dragon Slaying City was the cause.
Therefore, at this moment, they must go to Dragon Slaying City to assist the city lord to deal with this terrifying incident, but before that, he must first settle the two of the Bai Clan.
During this period of time, Elder Song Yan had already figured out the strength of the two Bai clans, so instead of bringing two "burdens" that might cause unnecessary incidents, it was better to let them leave for a while.
"At the moment, the things we have to deal with will be more tricky, so I think you two brothers are still temporarily separated from us, go to a nearby place to settle down, and after we finish dealing with the affairs of Dragon Slaying City, Sun Wukong and I will come to meet the two of you, remember one thing, be sure to stay away from the east, away from the sea." Without any hesitation, Elder Song Yan hurriedly beckoned to the two Bai Clans beside him, and then took the opportunity to send a seemingly inconspicuous gem into the hands of the Bai Clan, and followed in a low voice.
Although the two Bai Clan didn't know exactly what Elder Song Yan's purpose was, after all, the other party was a well-informed senior, and what he said and did must have his own reason.
Therefore, after thinking about it clearly, the two Bai clans nodded to Elder Song Yan in unison, and took the gem handed over by Elder Song Yan: "Senior, don't worry, our two brothers are waiting for you." ”
"This is the teleportation gem, when we come to look for you two in the future, this teleportation gem will tell me your location, so, be sure to keep it, don't lose it, it's very expensive" Today's Elder Song Yan, when he spoke, his eyes had not been removed from the gem held in the palm of Baihai's palm for a long time, and he seemed to be very reluctant, but Elder Song Yan forcibly suppressed the palm he wanted to stretch out, and immediately controlled his body to walk in the direction of Dragon Slaying City, and Sun Wukong on the side, threw a soft smile at the Baishi and the others, and immediately chased after them quickly.
After watching Elder Song Yan and Sun Wukong gradually disappear from his sight, Bai Haifang smiled indifferently and explained to Bai He beside him in a low voice: "This senior, although he is superb and well-informed, his personality is very different from those predecessors we have seen in the past. ”
Sun Wukong and Elder Song Yan's pace was not too fast, and they had only walked half of the distance in the time of a stick of incense, but they were not deliberately killing time, but on the way, they asked passers-by about the situation in Dragon Slayer City and the nearby sea area, after all, the next two of them were about to devote themselves to the investigation and handling of the strange incident that broke out in Dragon Slaying City.
However, under their inquiry, the answer they got was very similar to the news told by Xiao Er, as if they had unified the caliber in advance, which really surprised the two of them, and in the process of walking, the two of them also clearly smelled a dull breath from the air, after this breath entered the human body, it would immediately make people feel a sense of weight like Mount Tai pressing the top, and even breathing became much more difficult.
"Master, these breaths that permeate the air are not quite right, if we are ordinary people, we will feel depressed, and it is okay to breathe poorly, but the two of us are spiritual monks, and we both have spiritual energy in our bodies to protect our bodies, in this case, we can still feel uncomfortable, isn't this too wrong?" After using the attribute aura in his body to eliminate the uncomfortable feeling on his body, Sun Wukong observed in the nearby environment with a surprised face, and asked Elder Song Yan on the side in the process of his gaze, although Sun Wukong didn't know exactly what the origin of this strange aura was, but this inexplicable depression had already made him feel that a crisis was rapidly approaching.
"This breath is colorless and tasteless, and I can't tell what its origin is, but what I can be sure of is that once this thing enters the body, it will definitely have a certain impact on the human respiratory system, and as for how big this effect is, it needs to be further deduced." After responding casually to a few words, Elder Song Yan quickened his pace, and raised his hand at the Dragon Slaying City not far away, which had gradually revealed its figure: "Sun Wukong, speed up your pace, soon we will enter the Dragon Slaying City, I believe that this aura is definitely not limited to the wild." ”
Hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately accelerated his pace, and after reaching a level of speed with the former, he gradually suppressed his pace frequency.
And at the moment when Sun Wukong walked past Elder Song Yan, a handsome side face suddenly came into Elder Song Yan's sight, and his face suddenly became a lot surprised.
Although the side face is undoubtedly the face of Sun Wukong, but at that moment, it is so illusory and so special, as if it is a flawless face of a god, giving people a somewhat false feeling of being handsome, and for Elder Song Yan, who is very familiar with this cheek, at this moment he is unable to bear the doubts in his heart, so he hurriedly asked him: "Sun Wukong, ask you a question for the teacher, what relatives do you have?" ”
"Yes, it's just that I live in the human world now, and I don't live in this Shura ruins, I miss it very much." Although Sun Wukong's answer was very indifferent, the crystal aura seeping out of his gaze expressed his mood at the moment without reservation.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, let's go." Without saying too many words, Elder Song Yan only frowned in surprise and quickened his pace again.
...
After entering the Dragon Slaying City, Sun Wukong and Elder Song Yan did not hesitate in the slightest, and hurriedly accelerated their pace and ran all the way in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
In the process of running, they also inadvertently saw the imposing Wanbao Pavilion auction hall, but it was not difficult to find that it was difficult to see anyone in the auction hall now.
After all, after the terrifying incident in the Dragon Slayer City broke out, the people of the Wanbao Pavilion Auction Hall immediately left the Dragon Slayer City under the escort of the guards.
On the spacious streets around it, there is a lonely scene of desertion, vaguely giving people the appearance of a dead city.
As for the corpses of the city's citizens lying on the streets, their bodies festering, and their deaths miserable, it undoubtedly added a bit of a strange atmosphere to this barren atmosphere.
And the gloomy aura that I had felt in the air outside the city before had become much stronger in the Dragon Slayer City at this moment, as if the gloomy aura was diffusing from inside the city.
However, all of this is just a guess by Elder Song Yan and Sun Wukong at the moment, what the result will look like, and only after understanding the matter in detail can we make a decision.
Soon, a majestic, solemn and tall building suddenly appeared in the sight of Elder Song Yan and Sun Wukong.
In front of this building stood two stone lions carved from black stone, and although their eyes were stone, the special aura that gradually flowed from their interior made those who were condensed in awe.
Behind the stone lion, the red pillars propped up a spacious front door building, so that the imposing front door could stand firmly inside it, like a darling that had not been eroded by the slightest sun exposure and wind and rain, and on both sides of the front door, there were five soldiers in armor and spears, although the soldiers were silent, but their solemn faces were unreservedly expressed.
"Master, the only place in the Dragon City where you can see a human figure is this City Lord's Mansion." In the process of coming, there were no human figures on the streets, and even wild dogs and small birds and other species were difficult to see, although Sun Wukong and Elder Song Yan still did not know what caused the appearance of this scene, but they guessed that this scene must be related to this strange gloomy atmosphere.
"It's this City Lord's Mansion that comes, and now the people who live in Dragon Slaying City must have been hidden in their respective homes, and there should be no danger to their lives at present, but in this City Lord's Mansion, there is a large population, and there are a lot of fish and dragons, maybe there will be some ill-intentioned people disguised as soldiers to blend in, so this must be the first place we need to know." After a few casual explanations, Elder Song Yan immediately led Sun Wukong towards the city lord's mansion in front of him, but who knows, before they could approach the front door, the way forward was blocked by several sharp spears, and what followed was the questioning words from the soldiers' mouths.
"Now that there is a sudden epidemic in the Dragon Slaying City, the city lord has an order, all the city residents will return to their respective homes, wait for interrogation, and all those who are close to the city lord's mansion will be killed, no matter what the purpose is, I advise you two to leave quickly, don't add to yourself." One of the soldiers closest to Elder Song Yan immediately explained in a muffled voice like thunder after stopping the two of them from moving forward, and as the words of explanation continued to float out, the sharp spear tips had also approached the direction of Elder Song Yan and Sun Wukong under the combined control of all the soldiers.
