Chapter 319: Tiny Small Nation
Ling Xiao hurriedly told me that Qianmo didn't remember a lot of things, so I didn't ask again.
I said to myself, "Okay! I thought the two of them knew. I didn't ask Guan Lao, I knew that at least let Guan Lao point in a direction. We're in a dark spot now, and we can only ask for more blessings.
Yujie asked Snow Maiden a lot of questions about the evil ghost world, and I also learned that there are actually seven major countries in the evil ghost world, and there are many small countries, and there are wars and alliances between the seven countries, and they restrain each other. There were also frequent wars, battles for population, territory, and annexation of small nations.
Small countries will pay tribute to large countries, but all countries are subject to the ghost town of Fengdu, and at a fixed time, the ghost town of Fengdu will send emissaries to collect taxes.
I found that it was actually very similar to the Spring and Autumn period, where there were melee battles and alliances between the vassal states.
"Then how to get to the ghost city of Fengdu, someone here must know, right?"
Snow Girl said that a small number of people had indeed been there. She went as a messenger, and her snow country is a small country, and she is not qualified to send an envoy directly to the ghost town of Fengdu.
After speaking, she smiled again, "Four Tigers, you should improve your ghost qi here, and then make more friends with the envoys of the great powers or something, that will definitely be more helpful for you to go to the ghost city of Fengdu to save your milk, because only they know how to go." ”
Looks like I'm going to have to learn some diplomacy in the future, so far we haven't learned the power of the demon world, and I'm wondering if it's too comfortable.
As soon as I thought about it, I heard the sound of beating sticks and the whining sound around me, a bit like the feeling of a primitive tribe.
We've all been vigilant. That voice also made us panic, this level always threw us somewhere! Did you still encounter wild people, no, it should be wild ghosts?
The voice grew faster and closer, and suddenly a large net fell from the sky, and we were all caught in the net. I don't know what the net is made of, and we all lie on the ground, and we can't get out of it at all.
After we were trapped, several demons appeared, dressed a bit like Indians. They were muscular but not tall, and the two demons muttered for a long time, and then one of them suddenly smiled and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth.
They started dragging us along, and I thought to myself, is this going to eat our rhythm? I just came to the demon world. Is it going to be eaten?
We were taken to an altarpiece-style place, but it was magnificent, with a long stone staircase leading up to the top, and everywhere I could see, it was all about this style of architecture.
As soon as we arrived, except for the strange cows and crocodiles, the nets were removed. They tied the six of us with ropes, one after the other, as if they were threading beads with ropes, and marched forward in two lines.
The place seemed to be divided into many areas, the first of which was the training area, with strange weapons on the racks, halberds, bows, and swords that I could recognize.
The big head pointed to one of the soldiers and whispered to me, "Fourth brother." You see, that guy's head is not big, but how can he have so much strength, splitting a big rock and playing with it, no matter how powerful my head is, I can't guarantee it. ”
I also noticed when he said this, these soldiers who are practicing are all infinitely powerful, and they are not like the kind of hard qigong in Shaolin Kung Fu, they can easily emit very powerful power.
I hurriedly asked the Snow Girl if she knew what was going on in this place, and she said that she hadn't been here either, but the evil ghosts we saw with infinite power should not be simply powerful, but using ghost qi to control their bodies and use their consciousness to exert force.
Isn't that telekinesis? Could it be that all the people in this demon world are so powerful? The so-called telekinesis, in fact, is the super control of one's own ghostly energy, not simply retracting and releasing freely, but also using ghost qi in different ways.
But as long as they don't want to eat us, it's okay to say anything, maybe we can learn a trick or two from them, as long as these barbarians have patience
Further up was the civilian rest area, where I could see improvised tents and bonfires roasting one of the thighs of some kind of animal.
As soon as the strange cow saw the roasted meat, he became agitated, as if he was very angry, could it be that the thigh meat was from their close relatives?
And those male demons who are resting look more ordinary. They stared intently at Yujie, Snow Girl and Qianmo, all of whom began to droop, looking like they had never seen a woman.
In fact, there is no shortage of women in this place, but there are almost no fair-skinned and well-established figures, so it's no wonder that these evil ghosts are like this.
If the leader takes a fancy to them later, it will be troublesome, and it seems that I will have to learn disguise or something in the future to change their appearance.
Next to the civilian area is the trade area, and they are also a way to trade goods. The things that are sold are called a disgusting, except for the things that are used normally, what is eaten is the intestines and the heart.
There was also a dirty thing, a black, stinky thing hanging in a transparent bag, I don't know what it was, but it seemed to be the most appealing. It's amazing!
The stairs seemed to never come to an end, and the stone platforms and pillars on both sides of the stairs were painted with the faces of menacing people, and two demon guards were guarding them at intervals.
"Fourth brother, I think this is a country." Ling Xiao whispered to me.
Actually, I agree with what he said, although it is not a big country, but it is indeed a miniature country, and if I am not mistaken, after this staircase, you will reach the king's area.
We were still the last step away from the top, and we were pushed directly to the platform between the steps, and we were not allowed to go any further.
"TMD a bunch of waste, let you go and catch the deer, why did you bring back a four-headed! And what about these people? ”
I looked at it from afar, and a fat demon was standing on the edge of the steps and shouting, probably the king. He wore a large mask on his face, the same as the face painted on the pillar, and nine times out of ten it was the god they worshipped.
"King, don't worry, the smell of these people is different, if you peel them off, it shouldn't be worse than the taste of the divine deer."
Groove !! You're really going to eat us!!
The big head was going crazy when he heard it, "This group of ugly monsters still wants to eat grandpa me, I want to let them taste my awesomeness." ”
After the big head finished speaking, he launched a ghost qi, and I couldn't stop it. One of the guards beside the king ran directly over and kicked the big head in the stomach, so painful that he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Fourth, fourth brother, this evil ghost's telekinesis is very strong."
The big head is not just praising others, nor is it so easy to be frightened, it is indeed very strong. So even if we want to escape later, we have to weigh our abilities and plan well.
The king walked down the steps and looked at us carefully, "No, these people have just come from the Ghost Realm!" Then he suddenly laughed and praised his subordinates for a good job!
"King, do you still want to eat it?"
"Eat you big-headed ghost!" The king was furious again, as if he was a nervous disorder, "The ambassador will definitely reward me well for catching these things, and you will wait to follow me to the ghost city of Fengdu to enjoy the blessings!" ”
Could it be that we are still wanted in the demon world? But the king doesn't seem to recognize me, he just wants to catch some powerful ghosts to ask for rewards.
If we really give it as a gift to the ghost town of Fengdu or other countries, it will definitely be a goof, and then it will be a dead end. Ling Xiao told me to calm down, take a calm look first, and run away as soon as I find an opportunity.
The king had us taken to a broken cell, a place nailed with a wooden fence, but he left Yujie and the Snow Maiden behind. Qianmo is also good-looking, but I don't know why the king let her go.
The Snow Girl smiled at me, she looked cool, meaning don't worry, in fact, the fact that the Snow Girl can control ice and snow is really powerful, but now that she has reached the demon world, everyone looks like a master, can she still deal with it? Fork mark Laiba.
And Yujie doesn't have any ability, she is now looking for me underground, no matter what she has done before, I can't ignore her safety.
Staying in that cell, I was very worried about their situation outside, Qianmo seemed to see my thoughts, and actually took the initiative to talk to me for the first time, Ling Xiao was also stunned, "Four tigers, you don't have to worry, she is the princess of our country, and the king doesn't dare to do anything." ”
"But Yujie is not a princess!"
