Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Strange Army
The walls and gates of the vast city were full of dry bones, but the interior of the city was empty, and there was not a single corpse in sight, and for whatever reason, the three of them noticed the strangeness.
Yan Chutian's spiritual eyes were always wide open, and he slowly said while keenly looking at his surroundings, "Be careful, this may not be as simple as a dead city. ”
"Hmm. ”
The two women both nodded, silently operating the spiritual power in their bodies, their eyes scanning the surroundings, not letting go of a trace of wind and grass.
Walking past the dilapidated buildings, the road ahead gradually widened. As far as the eye can see, there seems to be a pitch-black tower towering up to the sky.
And the most unbelievable thing was that the three of them saw a little fire at the top of the black tower. Although the light of the fire was extremely faint, it was almost impossible to see it in the daylight at this time, but they were all sure that they were not mistaken, there was a wisp of fire burning on the top of the Black Tower!
For a moment, all three of them stopped, their eyes exchanged with shock. The light of the fire can't come out of nowhere, so there is only one possibility, something ignites the flame.
Whether it's a human or something else that ignites the flames, to exist in this strange dead city, everyone knows that it's not a simple thing!
"We... Do you want to keep walking?"
At this point, even Yan Ningzhu was very curious about everything, but he still subconsciously swallowed his saliva and said hesitantly. It was not easy to escape from the clutches, and she didn't want to die easily.
Hearing this, Yan Chutian glanced at Yan Ningzhu, and he was also a little hesitant at this time, and the sudden appearance of the fire made him even more uneasy. But if he wanted to give up like this, Yan Chutian was really unwilling, so in the end he could only speak, "Smoke girl, either you wait for us here, and we will go explore one or two and return as soon as possible." ”
Yan Chutian knew that Qiu Yu would always act in line with himself, so he directly said the word "we". And Qiu Yu's reaction was really to nod lightly with a smile, and then looked at Yan Ningzhu with beautiful eyes, waiting for her reaction.
Even if Yan Ningzhu is a cultivator, she is also as afraid as an ordinary woman, and now if she wants to wait in a strange dead city, it is better to directly follow the two of them to act together.
And seeing that Li Qiuyu was fearless, Yan Ningzhu didn't want to be compared to her, so she secretly gritted her teeth and said from an angle that the two couldn't see, "I'll go too!"
"Hmm. ”
Yan Chutian didn't think too much, and when he saw Yan Ningzhu nodding, he agreed, while Qiu Yu looked at her twice, and seemed to sense a hint of unyielding in the other party's reaction.
Anyway, the three of them continued to walk forward, getting closer and closer to the black tower. After a while, a huge black tower was completely revealed in front of the three of them, but at the same time, they could see that the black tower stood on top of a much larger square.
The ground of the square was pitch black, and when the three of them approached, they thought it was a special pigment at first, but after walking a few steps, they found that the pitch-black color did not cover the entire square, but was full of potholes, and there were some traces of drag on it.
Seeing this scene, Yan Chutian suddenly thought of something, and looked forward along these black trailing traces, his eyes approaching the Black Tower. And around the Black Tower, he finally saw the answer.
I saw that the corpses around the Black Tower were densely packed, and countless bones were piled up, and they were even half a foot high. At the same time, on top of the black tower, there were black chain-like objects spreading out, locking something and hanging quietly.
The hanging thing was nothing else, it was also a corpse, but as the years passed, it was impossible for those rotten bones to continue to hang, some of them fell off completely, and some of them were only some wreckage and were still locked.
Some are arms with white light, while others are skulls with the same white light.
Thousands of mutilated corpses, even if they had seen similar scenes, Yan Chutian and Qiu Yu still felt shocked. As for Yan Ningzhu, she had already been shocked by the situation in front of her, and obviously couldn't imagine who had done such a bloody massacre, killing the people of a city, and dragging their corpses here for arrangement.
"Jingle bell... Jingle bells!"
When the three of them were shocked, a crisp wind chime suddenly sounded from nowhere. The originally dead and silent environment suddenly sounded moving, which was extremely strange, and when the three of them followed the voice, a figure actually appeared in the direction from which the voice came.
Although the figure that suddenly appeared was not white bones, its head was actually at a perpendicular angle to its neck, and the figure was pale, its eyes were blank, and its mouth was open but it was not breathing, like a humanoid puppet.
And the jingle bell came from the wind chime he was carrying. Just take a closer look, and you will find that where he is carrying a wind chime, it is clearly a person's head!
The head carried by the silk thread opened its lips in a way that ordinary people could not do, and the size of the formation occupied two-thirds of the entire face, so that above it there was only a pair of eyes, which were now staring closely at the three of them with an inexplicable look.
The source of the sound was the crispness of the jingle of a wind chime, which came from the throat with a huge mouth, squeezing out of the throat...
"It's... What is this...?"
Seeing this scene, Yan Ningzhu finally couldn't suppress it anymore, and there was a slight tremor in the voice of the inquiry, that is, she was afraid. As strong as her, after all, she was just a woman, when had she ever seen such a strange scene, at this time, she even felt that it was better to stay at the entrance and fight with the two Seven Spirit Demon Flowers.
But for Yan Ningzhu's words, Yan Chutian and Qiu Yu couldn't answer, although the two of them were from the heavenly realm, they didn't know everything, and the heavenly realm also hid many secrets that they didn't know, or even qualified to know.
And the situation in front of me seems to have reached that level. Yan Chutian could see clearly with his spiritual eyes, the crooked head corpse and the human head wind chimes that suddenly appeared in front of him were clearly two corpses, and there was nothing to control inside, but it could actually walk, and the human head kept emitting a crisp wind chime sound, how could this be? !
"Stomp..."
When the three of them were shocked, the corpse with a human head and wind chimes on their foreheads and tilted their heads walked towards them step by step, and soon they found that there was more than one such strange appearance, and similar strange people kept walking out around the square. The things that carry them may be different, there are dead corpses of human beings, and there are also some beasts, but without exception, they are carrying a wind chime with a human head in their hands, and the crisp sound spreads and envelops.
"Jingle bell... Jingle bell...!"
"We scanned the surroundings just now, and there wasn't a single corpse, how could there be so many of them all of a sudden now...?"
Yan Ningzhu's beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings, and there was an extremely rare trace of panic on her pretty face, a strange thing made her scalp tingle before, not to mention that now almost the entire square is surrounded, and there are more strange armies constantly pouring in!
