Chapter 832: A Group of Portraits
Xue Sukite is a man of action, saying that he will not go further if he withdraws from the locust forest, and the whole person is extremely cautious, and he exits the ghost town with Yenong, but as soon as he walks to the mansion, he sees a figure.
That's the Nianjin Book.
"What a coincidence!" Nian Jinshu greeted them with a smile in a long black dress, and the soul bell had turned into a small bell hanging from her waist, she looked like she was traveling and shopping, and she was not surprised to see Xue Su Kite and Ye Nong.
Yano was startled, "Why are you here?"
"I came after you. Nian Jinshu smiled and said, "Su Kite, Ye Nong, you are not interesting enough, you found such a big thing, and you didn't tell me, if I hadn't followed you, I didn't know that the gate of this ghost city would have been opened a long time ago." β
Xue Suyuan was a little weak-hearted, "I don't know what the situation is in the ghost city, it's hard to tell you, besides, ghosts are not welcome in the ghost city, if it is like more than thirty years ago, the ghost town is closed again, the gains outweigh the losses." β
"Don't worry, I let the Soul Resurrection Bell hide my traces, the ghost can't feel the taste of the soul on my body, it's been more than thirty years, and the Soul Resurrection Bell has long been promoted, not as weak as it was back then. β
"The main thing is that we don't know what's going on in the ghost town, and if there's anything that you can't accept, we're doing it for your good." β
Nian Jinshu just followed behind them, she had already heard their conversation with the ghost, Ah Lan's matter, she also heard it clearly, Nian Jinshu did not accept the news of Xue Lan's death, but if it was true, Ah Lan had died in the ghost town, and had been dead for many years, she had no choice, she understood Su Kite's kindness, she was afraid that Xue Lan would have died in the ghost town a long time ago, and she and her eldest brother couldn't accept the facts, so they came to find out the truth first.
Nian Jinshu figured it out.
Either way, she wants the truth.
A solid truth.
Whether Ah Lan is alive or dead, she has to know.
A few people were already in front of the mansion, and Xue Sukite said, "Since you're here, let's take a look first, no matter how big the ghost town is, we also have time to find out." β
"There is a small courtyard in the locust forest, where a woman lives, I have seen it, her name is Nalan Guo, she also said that Ah Lan is dead, but what is the specific matter, she didn't say, I knew that the last time I asked thoroughly, if it is different from this group of ghosts, I can still know whether it is true or false. Nian Jinshu is quite regretful, she is too soft-hearted, so she shouldn't let go of Nalan Guo.
"Knock on the door. Xue Su Kite said.
Yano stepped forward and knocked on the door.
This mansion is no different from the house of Wanping City, the black gate, there are two locust trees that look like some years old are planted at the door, the locust trees are very, very dense, as if hiding countless ghosts, this kind of ghost tree is naturally gloomy, it is prohibitive, Nian Jinshu looked at them, and remembered the locust forest.
The place made her uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?" asked Xue Sukite.
Nian Jinshu shook his head.
Knock knock!
There is no pattern in the sound of knocking on the door in the night, and the person who is very angry when he hears it knocks very hard, but after knocking for a long time, no one opens the door, and there is not a single ghost.
"Are you relieved? There isn't a ghost here. β
This is the largest and most luxurious house on the street today.
Nian Jinshu said, "In the ghost city, there is seniority, if I remember correctly, Ah Lan is the lowest level of ghost cultivation, all the ghost cultivation abilities are above the ghosts, in the ghost city, the best position is occupied, the place where Ah Lan lived back then was a small attic, and this mansion can not be compared at all, whether it is in the world or in the ghost town, there is a set of rules, the strong are respected." β
Only the strong will have the best resources in the world, the best everything, when Ah Lan first came to the ghost town, she was just a fragile ghost, weak in strength, she was not qualified to live in such a luxurious mansion.
On the way to the locust forest by Xue Su Kite and Ye Nong, Nian Jinshu has already taken a turn in the ghost town, and this mansion is the most luxurious house in the ghost town.
A ghost town is a city, and this city is very big.
However, the spiritual power hit the central area of the city, and the ghost cultivators would not be too far away from the central area of the ghost city if they wanted to cultivate, so whether it was a ghost or a ghost cultivator, they all lived in the city, and no one chose to live in a place where the spiritual power was weak in the suburbs.
Those places, unless they are places where ghosts have cultivated to a certain point and are in retreat.
What's more, the most powerful ghost cultivator would not give such a residence symbolizing status and power to others, he would rather not live than take it for himself, this is a symbol of his strength.
Xue Su Kite and Ye Nong also have this meaning, the best place for the spiritual power of Wanping City belongs to the fairy gate of Wanping City, the most magnificent building, and it is also the fairy gate of Wanping City.
Youzhou City is also, the Demon King Palace is the best, the most beautiful, and the most brilliant building.
This is true of every city!
This is the case in the world, and what about ghosts.
This group of ghosts were all human beings in their lifetimes, so naturally there will be human rules.
Ye Nong knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
Xue Su Kite narrowed her eyes and said lightly, "Let's go in from the side." β
Nian Jinshu and Ye Nong also agreed, and a few people flew up and entered the wall, fortunately, this mansion, there is no enchantment, there is no enchantment, and no one usually comes, but if you want to restrain yourself, all the ghosts are either afraid of this place, or respect this place.
The mansion was gloomy and dark.
In the whole ghost town, there is a red lantern hanging in front of the door of every house, or a lotus lantern is lit, and it is placed in front of the door, and there are also two red lanterns hanging in front of this mansion, however, it is empty inside, there is nothing.
"Let's look separately. Xue Sukite said that several of them were very bold and profound, and there would be no danger in exploring separately, and the three of them were just about to separate, when a black shadow floated in and stopped them.
Nalan fruit.
She looked at the three women in front of her indifferently, and said mockingly, "People and ghosts have different paths, this is true, but I didn't expect that people would be so rude and trespass into other people's homes, every mansion in the ghost city has a master, and you come uninvited, destroying the balance of the ghost town and the rules of the ghost town." β
"It's you. Nian Jinshu recognized Nalan Guo, this time Nalan Guo and what she saw in the locust forest were different, her eyebrows were full of anger, and she looked much more vivid.
Draped in long hair that almost mops the floor, just draped indiscriminately, no makeup, cold and white, so thin that it is almost out of shape, it is really not good-looking, but the eyebrows are heroic.
Nian Jinshu said, "Miss Nalan, isn't your home in the locust forest? We didn't trespass on your house, why did you come here?"
Nalan Guo said lightly, "This mansion belongs to Lin Bubad, it is his home, I am ordered to guard his mansion, and the ghosts in the city will not trespass on their own permission, please leave!"
Nian Jinshu chuckled, "The last time I was in the locust forest, your words were inconsistent with the ghosts in the ghost town today, the gate of the ghost city had already been opened, and Lin Bu Bad would have left a long time ago, and he would not return to the ghost town, but you lied to me." β
Nalanguo sneered and said, "You also believe the ghost story, it seems that you are indeed naΓ―ve, the memory of the ghost is not good, decades have passed, and I can't remember many details, I don't tell you that the gate of the ghost city has been opened a long time ago, but I want the ghost town to return to peace, our ghost city has been fighting for many years, and it is not easy to get peace, everyone does not want to make trouble, and we do not welcome the living." β
Nalanguo almost engraved the words "please have self-knowledge" on the door of his head.
Xue Sukite and Nian Jinshu both came to the ghost town, so naturally they didn't want to run in vain.
"Then you come and tell me the truth. β
"The truth is that Xue Lan is dead, no matter how unwilling you are to admit it in your heart, this is a fact. Nalan Guo said, "She is a princess of the demon clan, in this world, there will be no more Xue Lan, and in the next life, there will be none, she has completely disappeared." Nianjinshu, Xue Su Kite, you must learn to accept the facts. β
A touch of pain flashed in Nian Jinshu's eyes.
This sentence is too poignant.
She just didn't want to accept the facts, so she appeared in the ghost town, hesitant, uneasy, and aggrieved, she wanted to see Xue Lan, and she obviously said that she would grow old together, and Xue Lan would be alone.
Nian Jinshu held Fang Fei in his hand and looked at the mansion that was close to Chi Qi, "I want to go in and take a look." β
No one could stop her.
Today, even if the wild goose is back here, and Xue Yongye is inside, she can't stop her.
Nalan Guo's eyes narrowed, a little gloomy.
The two are evenly matched, ready to go, and if they don't agree, they will leave and fight the earth, no one doubts that at this moment, Nian Jinshu has only one thought in her heart, she wants to go in!
She wanted to enter this mansion to see if it was Xue Lan's residence.
If this is Xue Lan's residence and there are Xue Lan's things in it, then they are all lying.
"Why are you trying so hard to stop me?" asked Nian Jinshu coldly, his voice was surprisingly deep, and in this atmosphere, no one would touch her moldy head.
"You're not welcome, it's as simple as that. Nalan Guo said, "Because of you, our ghost city will be closed, how many ghost cultivators are blocked, they can't get out of the ghost town, they will fight in the ghost town, our internal friction is so serious, it's all because the city gate is closed, in the final analysis, it's because of you, because of Xue Lan, so, Xue Lan is the enemy of the entire ghost city, the ghost cultivator can't get the blessing, the ghost can't fulfill his wish, all the anger and hatred will be transferred to Xue Lan, this is the fact you want, understand?"
I don't understand the Nianjin book, and I don't want to understand it.
They never thought that it would cause such serious consequences, for them, they just wanted to accompany Xue Lan, if the ghost road gave a warning earlier, they couldn't appear in the ghost city frequently, otherwise the ghost city would be closed, then they would be longing back then, they wouldn't be close to the ghost town, and no one wanted this to happen.
"Since that's the case!" Nian Jinshu pulled out Fang Fei, "Then let's talk with strength, I haven't fought with a ghost cultivator yet, your days as a ghost cultivator are longer than the days when I was a human being, then please give advice, today, whoever stops me will die!"
Nian Jinshu's aura was full of aura, Nalan Guo gritted her teeth, and also drew out her long sword, her sword was a soft sword, Nian Jinshu mocked, "What?
Nalan Guo's face did not change, and he secretly thought in the night, if you want to fight, hurry up and fight, what nonsense?
Nian Jinshu said, "Miss Nalan, I also want to have a good fate, I just want the truth." β
"The truth is that Xue Lan is dead, and you don't believe it. β
"Then you get out of the way, I'm going in. Nian Jinshu sneered, "What are you stopping me from doing, if you stop me, I won't believe you." β
This is not a multiple-choice question, Nian Jinshu knows it, and Nalan Guo also knows it.
Just as they were about to burst, Xue Su Kite burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Narango.
"Listen to you, you also hate Xue Lan?"
"In this ghost city, who doesn't hate Xue Lan?"
Xue Su Kite nodded in understanding, "In that case, how do you know that my name is Xue Su Kite? β
Nalan Guo was stunned, and Ye Nong also reacted.
yes, how do they know that this is a snow kite?
"You...... You ......" Nalan Guo was obviously panicked, and he didn't know how to explain it, Nian Jinshu's eyes changed, and he came up with a sword and slashed at Nalan Guo.
This sword went down, Nalan Guo avoided it, the soft sword and the Nian Jinshu fought together, in the ghost city, it seems that there are often such fights, and the ghosts are used to it.
This fight didn't even alarm the ghosts in the ghost town.
Nian Jinshu's eyes were extremely cold, he sealed his throat with a sword, and every move was rushing to kill, a quick solution, anyway, the ghost cultivators had died, and they were not afraid of dying again, there was no special way to kill the ghost cultivators, it was better to solve it as soon as possible, so as not to waste time.
Yano asked, "Shall I help?"
"Look. Xue Suyuan said lightly, and didn't help, it seems that the Nianjin book is right, it's just a trivial matter, and there is no need to help, and the Nianjin book doesn't need help.
"Do you think her sword moves are familiar?" asked Yano.
Yano shook her head, she didn't know much about the sword moves of the ghost town.
Xue Sukite asked again, "Is it like the style of the Xizhou Continent?"
Ye Nong suddenly realized, "It's a bit like, but I've never seen this kind of road, it's a bit evil." β
"Perhaps, it's improved. β
Nian Jinshu didn't want to waste time, at the same time as Fang Fei stabbed out, the soul bell also turned into a teenager and attacked Nalan Guo together, Nalan Guo heard the sound of the soul bell, his mind was in turmoil, and he was accidentally pierced through the heart by Nian Jinshu, and the whole person disappeared into the house immediately, and everyone didn't have time to react, Nalan Guo was not far away, and his body was condensed, and he looked unharmed.
Nianjinshu, "......"
Snow Kite, "......"
After all, they had never done anything with the ghost cultivators, and they didn't know how to kill the ghost cultivators.
The soul returning bell said lightly, "It's really an evil sect." β
Nalanguo said, "You can't kill me, don't waste your efforts. β
Nian Jinshu sneered, "I can't kill you, but I can entangle you, Su Kite, you come." β
Xue Su Kite, "Good!"
Xue Su Kite's Fengqi Wutong made a move, and Nalan Guo's face changed, "Fengqi Wutong?"
"You're pretty well-informed. "Xue Su Kite and Feng Liang Zheng do not share a Fengqi Sycamore, but today when I came to the ghost town, Xue Su Kite specially asked Feng Liangzheng for the Fengqi Sycamore, saying that it was to study a new exorcism song, so Feng Liangzheng gave her the Fengqi Sycamore.
Nalan Guo also seemed to notice that he had revealed a flaw, extremely displeased, Fengqi Wutong's killing move followed, Xue Su Kite is different from Nian Jinshu, Nian Jinshu's strength is stronger than her, but Fang Fei is a single killing move, Fengqi Wutong has always been a group skill, the sound of the piano turned into countless sword shadows towards Nalan Guo, even if the strength is weaker than Nian Jinshu, it is enough for Nalan Guo to eat a pot.
Nalan Guo quickly retreated, Fengqi Wutong's exorcism song also had an effect on ghost cultivation, although it was not as powerful as the effect on the Xizhou Continent, but in the past thirty years, the killing moves they had studied were not just exorcism songs.
Feng Liangzheng seems to have a premonition that he will fight with the ghost cultivators in the future, and he has been improving the exorcism song, hoping that Fengqi Wutong can also hit the ghost cultivators hard.
The two of them practice together, Feng Liang Zheng will know, and Xue Su Kite will naturally do it.
Nalan Guo was entangled by the snow kite, unable to get out, the Nian Jin Book asked the soul regeneration bell to be outside in case of accidents, she strode towards the depths of the mansion, this mansion is very large, she played a fire charm around, lit the oil lamp in the hall, and soon the layout of the hall was in front of her.
A person's preferences, even after more than 30 years, are difficult to change, and there are some habits that have long been innate and can no longer be erased.
This hall is what Xue Lan looked like when he was in Donglinburg.
Although it is not exactly the same, but in terms of layout, there is no big change, just some details are different, it seems that someone has moved here, nondescript, but because of the rush of time, it is too late.
Nian Jinshu looked at the wall, and the reason why she noticed the wall was because there was a very regular row of nails on the wall, and Nian Jinshu was not very familiar with these nails, but she remembered one thing.
She hung a painting in the bedroom, and when the wild goose didn't come back, she hung it herself, using this kind of nail, hanging the painting, and then using triangles to fix the position of the painting.
There should have been a lot of paintings hanging here.
Nianjin stroking the nails on the wall.
The hall was almost cleaned up, nothing special, and Nian Jinshu gave up continuing to investigate, wanting to take a look at the bedroom, but as soon as he took a step out, he looked back at the large vase of his height.
In the corner of the hall is a large vase of equal height.
Such a vase appeared in the hall, which was particularly abrupt, and Nalan Guo seemed to be deliberately entangled with them outside, dragging out time, if there was anything in this hall, it would have been cleaned up.
But what if it's too late to collect it?
Nian Jinshu squinted his eyes and walked to the vase, this vase was too heavy, she couldn't drag it at all, Nian Jinshu didn't do anything, pulled out Fang Fei, and slashed it with a sword.
No matter what the mystery of this vase is, and no matter how expensive the vase is, he directly smashed the vase, the vase was shattered, the porcelain pieces were scattered, and several paintings also rolled to the ground.
It was a self-portrait of Nian Junyao.
The portrait of her eldest brother will appear in the ghost town, there is only one possibility.
Painted by Alan.
Nian Jinshu squatted down and looked at the painting with tears in his eyes, the words of Nalan Guo and those ghosts contradicted themselves and deliberately misled them, what happened to Ah Lan?
Why didn't Nalanguo or those ghosts tell the truth?
If you open the Nianjin Book, in addition to Nianjun Yao, there are also Nianjin Shu, Feng Liangzheng, and Xue Haoran...... There is also a group portrait painting.
