Chapter 30: Monsters

The streets of Hongcheng are crowded with people, and the noon sun is warmly sprinkled on people, plating everyone's clothes and hair with a thin layer of broken gold, like gold leaf, gentle and comfortable.

A depressed man fell heavily from the top of a carved jade building, dragging his tired body, one hand covering his shoulder, blood coming out from time to time, looking very painful, but there was a little more perseverance and composure in his eyebrows, and the previous pride disappeared without a trace, like a child who made a mistake.

This inconspicuous figure disappeared into the corner of the street like a ghost, without the slightest speciality, and naturally no one paid attention to it, so it was forgotten with the surging crowd, which seemed very sad.

"Did you see anything from that woman?" Zhong Sheng withdrew his gaze from the figure and glanced at Ye Yu beside him.

"There was something strange about that woman, who was so agile and agile, but she did the stealing, most of it was intentional. Ye Yu groaned slightly, feeling that this woman was a little unusual.

"Then what power did she have just now?" Zhong Sheng continued to ask, although he also saw that it was unusual, but he always felt that it would not be so simple, and wanted to ask Ye Yu's opinion.

"It's not the same path as us! No, it should be said that it's different from the path everyone else has taken, she has neither used the power of the contract, nor has she internalized the rudimentary form of the world, could it be another method or other cultivation path?" Ye Yu was thinking and muttering.

The three of them discussed and speculated, but there was no result, so they stopped, and didn't think about it anymore, there are so many strange things in this world like stars in the sky, how can the three of them understand it?

Ye Yu continued to walk aimlessly, time was passing rapidly, the sun gradually set in the west, and the color of the glow changed from brilliant golden to dull red, dusk came, the sunset burned like a flame, covering half of the sky, and the air nearby seemed to be particularly clear, like glass.

The three of them stepped on the hazy and faint sunset, casually went to a restaurant, ready to rest for the night, and then rushed to Nanshui tomorrow, but when they approached the tavern, they found that they had left too hurriedly before, and they didn't bring stone coins on their bodies!

"What can you do, brother, have you brought some desolate beast bones or fur from the Great Wilderness? Didn't you hunt some desolate beasts? It would be better to go to the nearby textile market to exchange some money!" Qi Tian asked with an anxious look on his face.

"I left in a hurry, just thinking about traveling lightly, where do I remember to bring these things?" Ye Yu also smiled awkwardly, scratching his head, not knowing what to do.

"Could it be that the three of us are going to sleep in the wilderness today, and be accompanied by heaven and earth?" Zhong Sheng teased.

"I still want to taste the food in this Hongcheng!" Qi Tian said to himself.

"Why don't you go around other places and see if there is any place where you can get stone coins?" Ye Yu seemed to have an idea, and said with a smile.

"What do you want to do?" Qi Tian looked at the glint in Ye Yu's eyes, and felt that there was a conspiracy.

"Just follow it, what are you afraid of?" Ye Yu smiled ill-willedly, as if he had a ghost in his heart.

Qi Tian looked at Ye Yu and smiled a little infiltration, not daring to compliment.

But in the end, the two of them still followed behind Ye Yu and walked into the distance, and the sound of rustling was like the howl of insects, and gradually disappeared into the darkness.

......

In the southernmost part of Hongcheng, on top of a ruin, there are several houses left behind, which have been uninhabited for a long time, and are gloomy like haunted houses, like ghost dwellings.

Several dilapidated houses stood abruptly, low and dilapidated, the houses were dark and damp with no sunlight all year round, and the walls had long since peeled off and were uneven.

The tiles on the roof are as dense as fish scales, and even the Tianhe Breach will not leak in a bit, which looks very strange and terrifying.

Looking closely, there seems to be a faint yellow candle flame lit up, faintly like starlight and moonlight, and in this treacherous atmosphere, it adds a bit of coldness.

The dark night, the silence was gloomy and gloomy, the wind outside howled coldly, and from time to time you could hear the rustle of the leaves in the wind, the silence was terrible, as if the darkness was going to swallow everything, like a devil, and the two dim lights were like the devil's eyes.

An inopportune voice sounded suddenly, crisp and pleasant, like a fairy bell, immature with a crying voice, "Sister, are you really leaving?"

In a remote room, the lights were dim, and several people were gathered together, men and women, old and young.

One of the women was not stunningly beautiful, but she was very coordinated, with a heroic spirit in her long and narrow beautiful eyes, she touched the head of the little girl in front of her dotingly, and said softly: "Well, there are some things I have to do, otherwise I will not only be sorry for the adult, but also sorry for my sister." Speaking of this, her body revealed a majestic momentum, and her eyes were more heroic, like a sharp silver spear.

The man in front of him suddenly reproached: "Don't do that kind of thing in the future, why rush for a while, there will be time in the future!"

The woman nodded reluctantly, and then said with some fear: "Today I met three people in Hongcheng, their strength is very strong, if they make a move, I may not be able to leave." ”

The man's face was full of disbelief, and he said: "This big grand city, who is your enemy in the mortal realm? You are the real monster in this world, okay!"

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, without denial, just looking outside, stretching out her jade hand, dotted with stars, wrapped around her fingertips, pure and transparent like glass.

A blue moon was embedded in the black screen-like night sky, the bright moonlight poured into the world, and the black world was plated with a layer of silver light veil, and at this moment, a figure swept through the sky like a ghost, sliding on the roof!

The whole process of sliding down is like flowing water in the same way, without making the slightest sound, in one go, as if it has been rehearsed countless times.

And at this moment, the woman's body seemed to have some kind of induction, and she sensed the slightest fluctuation, and shouted: "Who?" The look of vigilance in her eyes rose.

"There may be someone, you must be a little too cautious!" the man said, shrugging his shoulders.

"No way, there are definitely people, I can't be wrong!" the woman affirmed, her eyes clear and flashing like lightning.

Two more figures cut through the sky and landed steadily on the roof, but no dust was raised.

It's Qi Tian, Zhong Sheng, and Ye Yu!

"Is it really good for us to be like this? it always feels sneaky!" Qi Tian used the power of Xiao Tiandi to transmit sound, forming a temporary vacuum belt around him, and all sounds were isolated.

"It's okay, don't worry, we don't have any malicious intentions, and we're not afraid of shadows. Ye Yu said calmly.

"Then why are you hiding?" Qi Tian wondered.

"What if there are other masters, if we swagger over, and they fight us indiscriminately, then we won't be able to do anything!" Ye Yu said.

"How did you know she was here?" Zhong Sheng asked.

"You think, she has been running north since she was chased by the guards, who would be stupid enough to run to her place of residence? So I judge that her place of residence may be in the west, and she will definitely not live in the core area, after all, there are many people, there are always people who can see through the disguise, a wanted criminal like her, collecting daily necessities must rely on other people, and the entire Hongcheng is the only deserted land that can accommodate so many people. Ye Yu said in a deep voice, "But I wasn't sure before, but now I'm sure." ”

Ye Yu seemed to be wandering around in Hongcheng, but in fact, he had penetrated every place and obtained a lot of information.

Qi Tian thought for a while, and then understood a little, and said, "Then we are now?"

"Wait for her to come out! We're just asking her to borrow some coins! Don't worry. After speaking, Ye Yu removed the vacuum barrier, and the soft moonlight like snowflakes reflected on the three of them, slightly cool.

Inside the house.

"Stay in the house, if the situation is not right, run immediately, leave me alone!" The woman's eyes revealed firmness and determination, and before anyone else could respond, she pushed open the door and walked out, her body tense and not daring to be careless.

"Hey, you're out!" a voice rang out, deep and magnetic.

The woman was like a frightened bird, Huo Ran turned around and saw the three people on the roof, her eyes were full of alertness, they were actually the three 'monsters' she had seen during the day.

"We didn't have any ill intentions, we just wanted to borrow some stone coins, and we came out in a hurry and had nowhere to live. Ye Yu explained, looking helpless.

For some reason, the feeling that these three people brought to her was very simple, like the moonlight like frost and dust in the night sky, there was no malice in her words, she couldn't feel the murderous aura in the air, and her hanging heart gradually relaxed, no longer as nervous as before.

Since she already knows who it is, then she has self-confidence, even if she is one against three, she will not be defeated, this is her confidence, invincible in the mortal realm, no matter what kind of monster the other party is, it is the same for her.

"Are you going to the 'Land of Contention'?" the woman didn't answer Ye Yu's question, but asked rhetorically.

Ye Yu thought that this guy was really vigilant, and he also nodded, after all, there was nothing to hide.

The woman pondered for a while, thinking in her heart, such a powerful mortal realm person Hongcheng had never had it before, and looking at these people didn't look like they were lying!

"Don't you want to arrest me?" the corners of the woman's mouth curled, "If you catch me, you should be able to go to the City Lord's Mansion to exchange a lot of stone coins!"

Ye Yu fixed his mind and said: "I won't be like that fool at noon, and we have no grievances and no enemies, and it is best to make friends." ”

"It's hard to tell the difference between good and evil, isn't it?"

After hearing this, the woman's body seemed to tremble slightly, and she didn't answer, but there was a turbulent wave in her heart, how did he hear it?

When she was talking to the man at noon, she specially covered her mouth with secret power, and naturally her voice was dissolved, who was the other party? It was terrifying to be able to see it from such a distance, and it was incredible to the extreme!

She saw Ye Yu's smiling and groaning expression, she was a little uneasy, this person seemed to be a little interesting! Could it be a monster like her?
