Chapter Twenty-Three: Kirin Ghost City
The minotaur looked at it from afar, and for some reason, my eyes collided with it in mid-air.
At that moment, I felt like my head had been hit hard by a hammer, and with a thud, the whole person fell straight backwards and rolled into the mud.
My eyes darkened, and the last thing I saw was the contemptuous smile on the minotaur's face.
Yes!
I snorted in my heart, clenched my teeth and kept silent, the sharp pain that filled my mind with the sharp pain I had been firing at before.
It lingered, and it made me feel like crying.
But I didn't dare to make any noise, because I knew that the strength of those shadows was simply terrifying, and if I provoked these guys, I was afraid that it would bring misfortune to everyone.
I had to endure it.
Fortunately, at this time, the worm pressed my head, and a cool air flow passed through, and the pain disappeared a lot.
I subconsciously opened my eyes, and found that there was a burst of darkness in front of me, as if I had not fired the eyes before, and just when I was anxious, the worm held me down and whispered in my ear: "Don't move, this is only a temporary phenomenon, and it will recover soon - they noticed us, but they did not come, obviously acquiescing to our presence, but warning us not to approach Huangquan Road." ”
What, that avenue just now is Huangquan Road?
In other words, the mighty crowd is actually ......
I shuddered, didn't speak, lay tightly on the wet ground, felt a small worm crawling around the tip of my nose, couldn't help rubbing, I don't know how long it took, Jiang Bao suddenly said: "They're gone!" ”
I got up, and when I opened my eyes again, I saw that the heat had subsided, and I could see things again, and the flow of people had gone away like a slow dragon.
I took two deep breaths, then looked around, and found that the ugly Taoist priest was inferior to me, and he collapsed directly on the ground, with a cold sweat, his teeth chattered incessantly, and he trembled and said: "Those legends, are they all true?" In this world, is there really a bull's head? ”
The little demon said disdainfully: "The horse face is also true, but this bull's head may not be - that thing is called a shapeworm, it is a low-level form of the Nether amoeba, you look like a big one, but in fact, countless small insects are formed together." ”
The ugly Taoist priest said in disbelief: "How is it possible? ”
The little demon laughed and said that there are no wonders in the world.
The ugly Taoist priest began to wonder again, and said then how do you know?
The little demon said proudly: "Of course, I am from the other side of the flower, how can I not know about this matter of the Yin and Yang worlds?" ”
The ugly Taoist priest looked disgusted, and said it, just you, a fat hen who has eaten too much, are you embarrassed to say that you are a flower? Don't think that if you talk a sissy, you can pretend to be a girl!
The little demon was angry with this guy, and yelled, saying that you are talking a lot of nonsense, hurry up and find it, the next wave may come soon.
The ugly Taoist priest hurriedly took out the compass, looked at it carefully, and said on the other side, shall we go over?
Worm nodded and said let's go.
The group continued to set off, but this time everyone's mentality has changed, before, I always felt that this was just a black world, a dead place, there was nothing, but after the ugly Taoist priest was chased and killed, as well as this terrifying bull head and Huangquan flow, we finally understood one thing.
This is not a simple place, the strong are like forests, and the slightest mistake will kill here.
It's a brutal world.
We walked briskly down from the woods on the side of the hill, and when we came to the top of the Yellow Spring Avenue, we found that the road was very fast, almost as wide as eight lanes, and the top was very smooth, which was the weight measured by countless people with their souls.
We rushed almost across the Yellow Springs Avenue, and just as we had just passed, at the end of the road, there was the sound of rapid footsteps.
It was so fast that we didn't have time to go too far, and we hurriedly looked back, thinking that something was going to happen.
But this time it didn't, I saw a horse-faced man about two meters tall, he stopped not far away, glanced at us, and then a gentle smile appeared on his face, and waved at us.
I stiffened, not daring to make any movement, and the little demon waved his wings at the horse-faced man.
After the horse-faced man said hello, he walked away.
It wasn't until it disappeared that the frightened ugly Taoist priest trembled and said, "Uh, do you know it? ”
The little demon waved his wings and said disdainfully: "Of course! ”
The ugly Taoist priest is cheap again, saying that you are bragging, right?
The little demon ignored him and said proudly: "I don't have to talk to a layman like you at all, I really cried stupidly for you." ”
The appearance of the horse-faced man was just an accident, and we continued to walk forward, with a begging attitude, I called the little demon to come over and stand on my shoulder, and then asked in a low voice: "Why is that bull's head so cruel just now, but this horse-faced is so kind?" ”
The little demon was very satisfied with my respectful attitude, and said to me: "The bull head and the horse face are actually the aborigines of the Huangquan Road, but the bull head is not only a pawn, but also a soldier of the Youfu, it is said that the Youfu is not without enemies, and a powerful soul was born in the sea of blood, and the Youfu lost a lot of soldiers in order to fight against it, and because of the characteristics of the Youfu, the souls of these soldiers did not die, so they were attached to the bodies of those shapers to escort the Yin Soul. Because they are warriors and have died in battle, it is normal for these guys to be short-tempered; As for the horse noodles......"
She shook her head and said: "Ma Mian is weak, and he usually does some miscellaneous clerical work, and he is not angry, and because he is both indigenous, he has some incense love for each other, so if he can not offend people on weekdays, he must not offend people!" ”
I chuckled and said I understood, it turned out to be similar to a company or an institution, the bull head is buried in things, and the horse face is raised to be a man, right?
The little demon nodded and said that this is the truth.
I found that the little demon actually knows a lot about this Huangquan thing, and there is something to say, and he also lowered his posture at the moment, humbly asked, and asked a lot of related questions, some of the little demons answered, and some did not answer, but it was always able to solve a lot of doubts in my heart.
Unconsciously, he had walked a long distance, and at this time, the ugly Taoist priest suddenly shouted in a low voice: "It's here, it's here, it's in front." ”
I followed the prestige, but I saw that there was a valley with a sparkling light in it.
By the light, I could clearly see that there were many hedges at the mouth of the valley, and there was a tall archway at the main entrance, and beyond the archway, I could see a large area of low sheds, and behind the sheds were the streets, with houses and pavilions.
The further you went inside, the more densely lit the lights, the more ornate the buildings, and the streets were filled with people, and at the gates of the valley were guarded by tall soldiers in black armor.
Seeing this, the ugly Taoist priest was completely stunned, and only after a while did he say, "Ah, how can there be a town here?" ”
The insect also squinted at it, and after a long while, he said: "This should be one of the four ghost markets of Taishan Bo Huang Feihu, there are many miscellaneous sects and natives here, it is a market facing all races on the Huangquan Road, as long as you abide by the rules here, there should be no danger, let's go in?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and said Huang Feihu, what about the god list?
The worm smiled at me and said I don't know, everyone else says that, I'm just relaying.
The worms led us down the hills to the front of the valley.
As soon as we got to the bottom of the archway, we were surrounded by several soldiers in black helmets and black armor, and these guys did not say a word, but stood in front of us, some with spears and some with scimitars, and I looked under their helmets, but found that there was only a cloud of mist, and there was no face at all.
The insect pulled me and whispered, "These are Fu Ling Yin soldiers, don't look at their faces, otherwise it will anger them!" ”
I hurriedly bowed my head, and then the worm spoke, and said to the front, "We are here to exchange markets, and we are asking to enter." ”
A few minutes later, a man in a gray robe came from the town, looked at our group, and asked, "Where did you come from?" ”
Worm said White Mountain.
The man asked, "What are you going to sell?" ”
Worms say snake venom.
The man said, "What are you going to buy?"
Worms say eat and wear.
After answering the three simple questions, the man took out four delicately carved stone tablets from his pocket, handed them to us, and then explained: "Remember, in the ghost market, it is forbidden to fight, fraud and stealing, and there is no conflict with the management personnel. ”
We bowed down and said that we understood, and the man waved his hand, and these black-helmeted and black-armored rune spirit yin soldiers immediately made a way.
He smiled back and said to us, "Welcome to the Kirin Ghost Market, and I wish you all a great time." ”
How do you feel like you're in a casino?
We walked slowly, past the shantytowns outside, into the street, and found that it was bustling with people, like a prosperous town in ancient times, and these people were dressed in a variety of strange clothes, from modern suit jackets to ancient robes and horse coats.
The ugly Taoist priest walked to a corner where there was no one, opened the compass to look at it, looked left and right, and then pointed to a mansion not far away and said, "That's it!" ”
We followed his finger and looked over, and saw two words written on the gate of the mansion: "Huangfu!" ”
