Chapter 504: Ghost Shop (1)
We walked all the way north, from night to dawn, to a small bazaar.
I had a casual meal at the little bazaar, bought two good horses, and continued on my way.
Riding on horseback and moving forward, Su Luoxi, who didn't talk much, suddenly asked me: "Brother Gong Nan, do you know who the murderer of Aunt Yueru is?" ”
I looked back at her and said, "Why are you asking this?" ”
She had a firm expression and said, "I want to avenge Aunt Yueru!" ”
I smiled faintly and said, "I have already avenged Aunt Yueru." ”
She was a little incredulous.
I said, "The murderer is that Niu Ling, and he is now killed by me." ”
Su Luoxi looked at me with a puzzled expression, it seemed that she was a little unconvinced.
I said, "Actually, when the bat god came to my barracks to tell me that Hong Bing was killed by him, he privately informed me that there were undercover agents with me, and that Hong Bing had already submitted to us. I wanted to kill him at that time, but I was worried about the safety of you and Aunt Yueru, so I ignored him and hurriedly ran to Su Mansion to see you.
After I took Aunt Yueru's corpse and you back to the barracks, the Niu Ling manipulated Aunt Yueru's corpse in a vain attempt to kill you, that is, at that time, I killed him, and then the Bat God pretended to be Niu Ling's appearance, and Hong Bing pretended to be you, and the three of them went out together to deal with the Dao of Destruction. ”
Su Luoxi didn't seem to understand, still confused, but nodded slowly.
I said: "Luo Xi, you don't have to worry about me killing the wrong person, before Niu Ling died, he had already admitted what he had done, and I had already avenged Aunt Yueru." ”
Su Luoxi asked again at this time, "Are we going to look for your friend now?" ”
I said, "That's right." ”
Su Luoxi said, "But do you know where he is? ”
I laughed and said, "Fool, if I knew where he was, would I still need to look for him?" ”
"It's ...... too," Su Luoxi smirked and scratched her hair a few times, "Do you think we'll meet Sister Lan?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I don't know." ”
Su Luoxi said: "I remember that before she left, she said that she would help you find your friend, and you said that if she found it and returned to Yin City, but couldn't see us, what would she do?" She's going to be in a hurry. ”
I said, "If she returns to the Netherworld, the Bat God will tell her that we have left all the way north, and that she will definitely find us if she chases her north." ”
In fact, I knew in my heart that Li Youlan was suddenly in a hurry to leave Yin City at that time, not to find Lao Dao for me, looking for Lao Dao was just an excuse, she should be doing something very important to her, and this matter, I guess, is related to Mojing.
In other words, if we want to find Li Youlan, as long as we go to the northeast and go all the way to Mojing, we should be able to find her.
But what's the use of finding her? Now I'm looking for Lao Dao, and it's not too late to find her when I find Lao Dao.
Therefore, we did not go in the northeast direction at this time, but went in the northwest direction, and the northwest direction, all the way, is the evil capital.
Since Lao Dao is not in Yin City, and Li Youlan is near Mojing, if Lao Dao is in Mojing, Li Youlan will find him, if he is not in Mojing, then he can only be in the evil capital.
Therefore, going in the direction of the evil capital is by far the wisest way.
Along the way, I was still wondering, is it the old way to destroy the Dao?
The death of the Extinction Dao is too easy, and it is a little weird to be so easy. I always felt that he was not dead.
And we, all the time, thought that we were all planning for the extermination of the Dao and completed a beautiful counterattack, but maybe the Annihilation Dao will be calculated for us, and another will be calculated.
I have a vague feeling that Yin City is now more precarious than before.
We walked for another day, until the sun went down and even the last scarlet on the horizon was wiped clean by the night, and we stopped.
Ahead, there is a vast desert, and we are now at the junction of the desert.
Just at the junction of this desert, there is an inn.
Su Luoxi and I planned to rest at this inn for one night, and continue our journey early tomorrow morning.
The inn on the edge of the desert, under the cover of night, seemed very small and unreal, like a stain on the edge of a yellow piece of paper.
The cold wind, covered with dust, whistled and blew the lonely inn "squeak-squeak-squeak-" sound, like grinding teeth in the sleeping night.
The green flag hanging high in the inn danced wildly in the muddy dust, "crackling", like a beast that had been caught in a trap and kept struggling.
The windows of the inn flashed with bright spots that were about to be hidden.
From a distance, this inn looks like a haunted house.
Haunted houses.
The thought of this word made me feel a sense of resistance to the inn.
But then I thought, in this ghost domain, ghosts originally exist openly, and when I see a haunted house, what's so surprising?
Well, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Su Luoxi and I both dismounted, then took the reins and walked slowly towards the inn.
The wind was still howling, and I don't know if it was because of the wind and sand, but the two horses were reluctant to move forward, and we pulled the reins so hard that they slowly followed.
Finally, we pulled the two horses to the door of the inn.
The door of the inn is closed, probably to hide from the wind and sand, but I don't know why, I always feel that this door is closed, there are other reasons.
I suddenly remembered the scene when I met Chen Yueru in the desert before.
This is not a good hunch.
I knocked on the door and shouted, "Is anyone there?" ”
After a long time, there was no sound inside.
I knocked again and shouted, "I'll bang on the door and go in when no one is around." ”
At this time, a voice came from inside: "No one, only ghosts!" ”
When I heard this, I subconsciously chuckled in my heart.
"Squeak......" The door opened.
Sure enough, a skinny, dried corpse walked out, and with every step he took, there was a "gurgling" sound on his joints.
The dry corpse's eyes were sunken, like two craters on the moon. His skin was dry, I guess it was as crisp as potato chips, and when I reached out and pinched it, it would "click" and break into a hole.
The cadaver looked me up and down, Su Luoxi and I glanced a few times, and said, "What are you looking for?" I'm here in an inn, there are demons, demons, ghosts, monsters, but there is no one, you go to the market to find someone, there are many people, living and dead. ”
I listened to his words and smiled bitterly a few times, this guy is right, in the ghost realm, humans are the most marginal species, and they are also used for food like chickens, ducks, geese and pigs.
The first time I came to this ghost realm, I was terrified by this situation.
I just said, "Is anyone there?" out of habit, and I was definitely not used to knocking on the door and saying, "Is there a ghost, is there a demon?"
At this time, the dry corpse suddenly showed a strange face, smiled "hehe", and said, "The two of you are going to live in the hotel, right?" All came in, and there were just two rooms left. ”
With that, he turned and walked inside.
