Chapter 56: Shadow Corpse (4)
Ji Wuchen got up and looked around, and suddenly realized that at this moment, the world was strangely plunged into silence, leaving only Zhou Ting, who was constantly chewing and gnawing the shadow corpses like beasts, and those shadow corpses who were supposed to be frantically attacking the light curtain suddenly stopped in place for some reason, as if they were frozen, no sound, no movement. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although he didn't know why, Ji Wuchen didn't think too much about it, and stayed a little away from Zhou Ting beside him, and then sat directly on the ground, letting his mental choice relax a little.
At this moment, something flashed through his mind, and then he seemed to think of something, and quickly got up from the ground and turned around.
From the very beginning to the present, because his spirit has always been in a tense state, he doesn't seem to have taken a good look at the black ancient city at his feet.
Ji Wuchen was now standing in the center of this pitch-black city, with the pitch-black ancient tree behind him, and in front of him were the shadow corpses with only one skin left on the outside, their hands and feet twisted, and their expressions hideous and motionless, and the faint light curtain that shrouded them and was about to shatter but was now recovering step by step.
It's just that although these light curtains did resist the fact that those shadow corpses couldn't attack them, but now they directly blocked them inside, and they couldn't get out at all, after all, they couldn't really rely on the number to make a hole and let themselves escape like those shadow corpses.
Therefore, their current situation is just like what Jiang Shishi said after discovering that he couldn't leave, as if they were waiting for death, and the difference is only whether they die early or late.
At this time, I saw Ji Wuchen squinting at this ancient city, which could be regarded as both strange and familiar to him.
Before, it may be said that in that real-like fantasy world, Ji Wuchen only stood outside this black ancient city and watched from afar, and never really entered the city.
At that time, he only saw a group of knights wearing black armor and masked heads passing straight over his body, and the black armored knight who was supposed to not be able to see him stopped at the end, and the last black armor leader turned his head and seemed to be looking at him fiercely, all of which made him feel very impressed.
However, in the end, when he slowly approached the black ancient city in front of him and walked into the ancient city gate, he actually returned directly to reality from there.
In a hurry, I only saw these "people" who behaved strangely, as if they had suddenly suffered a catastrophe and died in a hurry, as well as the dark ancient trees that had just broken through the ground and were now emitting a ghostly light behind them.
No, at this moment, he chuckled in his heart, and his body froze in place.
He closed his eyes and tried to remember, then opened his eyes to look at the shadow corpses around him, closed them again, opened them again, and as the number of times and the time passed by second, his hands became tighter and tighter, and the sweat in his palms began to increase more and more, and his throat felt more and more difficult.
Because he was shocked to find and was extremely sure that the "people" he saw at the moment he walked into the city were clearly the shadow corpses that surrounded them and blocked them here, or rather, they should be the same, because his mind had always been a little confused, so when he saw those shadow corpses, although he seemed to have a faint sense of inexplicable familiarity, he couldn't remember anything.
He didn't remember it until now!
It's just that, according to what he saw, these shadow corpses should obviously be in this ancient city, and they shouldn't have appeared with the strange black mist that suddenly emerged from the abyss and devoured those python monitor lizards directly.
Although he felt a slight tingling of his scalp, Ji Wuchen still forcibly pressed it down, at that time he was standing outside the city, and now he was standing inside the city, and it was like the center of the dark ancient tree, so he could see more things here than before.
In his eyes, he saw that although the city was not very distinct, it could still be seen that its pattern was still very large.
This ancient city is built of black stones of unknown material, even on the ground, if you look at it from a distance, it almost merges with the night, like a giant beast, crawling in this silent night, waiting to choose someone to devour.
And in the city, under his feet, you can see a variety of street layouts, extending in all directions, but there is a common destination, that is, the pitch-black ancient tree located in the center of the ancient city under his feet, as if this pitch-black ancient tree has a special meaning for the city.
But although the city exudes an ancient, majestic feeling from top to bottom, it is not old at all, but like a new city.
It's just that soon, Ji Wuchen's eyes fixed on one place, and his expression was a little strange, that is, he clearly found that on every house in this ancient city, there was a white cloth, although it was not very clear at night, but it could still be distinguished slightly.
"None...... Dust-free, you ...... Look there......"
Just when Ji Wuchen was stunned, Jiang Shishi's shaking beside him woke him up.
He looked in the direction of Jiang Shishi's finger, and when he looked back, he saw that there was an unknown distance stretched behind the pitch-black ancient tree.
It was also the end of this black ancient city, and I saw that it was shrouded in a huge shadow, like a tall mountain, and this ancient city seemed to be embedded in this huge mountain.
Under the bleak moon of the faint blood moon, although the end of this ancient city is not very clear, you can still barely see a group of extremely towering, exuding a majestic atmosphere, and the dark ancient trees swallow the ghostly light, just like the ancient Chinese palace, which makes people feel awe.
It's just that what really caught Ji Wuchen's attention and felt strange was that there was a long black stone path in the direction that led to the building that looked like a palace, and there were no other superfluous buildings next to it.
On both sides of the road, in the distance, starting from the pitch-black ancient trees, leading all the way to the suspected shadow palace, erected stone statues of tall warriors and alien beasts dressed in armor, with solemn faces and various weapons in their hands.
Suddenly, like a thunderbolt from the sky, Ji Wuchen stood on this road, he glanced at the dried corpse again, and then looked back at the dark palace in the distance, and couldn't help but gasp.
