Chapter 60 Climbing the Wall

After joking, the two returned to business, and by the faint light of the night pearl above, they chose a direction and headed for the "palace in the city".

However, this piece of baggage logistics also occupied a lot of places, and it took a quarter of an hour to completely pass through this area.

When you walk through here and go inside, you will feel that the surrounding architecture has changed from one to another. What catches your eye is no longer the messy hoarding of goods, but the neat barracks that you saw before.

These barracks are neatly sized and lined up, and they are made of solid black rock, and they are imposing from a distance.

On the west side of the barracks, there is a large stable, but it is unusually quiet, and the ghosts, horses, corpses, and beasts inside are estimated to have died tragically for many years. There was also a pass in the far southeast, and from a distance, the guards above were slumped, probably as dry corpses.

"Shall we enter the barracks and have a look?"

Chu You said as he walked towards the nearest military camp.

The entrance to the barracks was not locked, and it was opened with a push of the door. However, although the push was very light, the door that had not been moved for a long time still made a "squeak" sound. In this empty and silent dungeon, it was abrupt and harsh, and the ears of the listeners were sore.

When I entered the camp, I saw that it was also simple to give alms, except for some swords and weapons, there were tables, chairs and benches, and the only eye-catching thing was leaning against the long row of kangs in the south.

When he stepped forward, he saw twenty or thirty corpse soldiers lying on the kang. But they were all dead, like all the corpses they saw on the road, they were all skin and bones without a trace of moisture.

"Why is that?"

"The whole city is full of corpses that died tragically, even if you want to make a military life to accompany the funeral, at least you have to put it neatly!"

Chu Yu was puzzled.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't find any explanation in my heart. In the end, it had to be attributed to the tyrannical nature of the ghost emperor, who used great magic to kill everyone and bury them.

However, there are also unreasonable points, such as why the dead people who accompany the funeral are all horizontal and vertical, shouldn't they be stacked neatly.

"Let's go to his "Ghost Emperor Palace" to have a look! If he looks like a dry corpse like this, then it will be cheaper for us. ”

Chu You was thinking about it, but was interrupted by the voice of the fat ghost. When I looked back, I saw greed in his eyes!

"The monks are still so greedy for things outside their bodies?"

"Poor monks are robbing the rich and helping the poor, and upholding righteousness! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. ”

“.....”

There weren't many clues in the barracks, and the two of them retreated after seeing it.

As soon as he came out, Chu You pointed to a slightly tall building in the north and said, "It looks like it's a 'Chinese military account', should we go and search it?"

"Look at your lack of ambition, listen to me and go directly to the Ghost Emperor Palace! ”

The fat ghost's eyes never left the palace for a moment, and he couldn't wait in his heart.

Seeing this, Chu You no longer argued. The two of them immediately left the barracks, and with the faint light of the pearl above their heads, they went straight to the palace!

At this time, the two of them had already determined that this was a dead city, and they no longer had any scruples about acting, and they were moving at an extraordinary speed.

However, Rao still wasted a lot of time passing through this large and small barracks. I don't know how huge the number of these corpses would have been if they hadn't died. After all, each of the corpse soldiers here is equipped with a full set of armor weapons, which is much better than on the ground.

Thinking like this, before they knew it, an hour had passed, and Chu You and the others had also come to a thick and atmospheric city wall.

"This is the inner city wall, and through here is the palace!"

The fat ghost said excitedly.

However, the walls are very high, and the palace is built on them, and you can only barely get a glimpse of it if you look up. The two of them are still low in cultivation and don't know how to take off. The walls are smooth and solid, and there is really nothing to be done for a while.

"That's all there is to it!"

Chu You's face turned pale after looking at the city wall for a long time. When he lifted the heavy sword, he slashed at the hard, hoping to cut some holes and climb up.

However, although the sparks were full of sparks, there was nothing on the city wall except for a few white marks. I wiped the chop with my hand, and it was warm and smooth as before, and it was actually made of obsidian.

"I said the walls were so black, they were made of obsidian!"

Chu You lost his voice and said: "Obsidian is not comparable to an ornament like gold, its texture is hard and good at conducting energy, it is the only raw material for making the teleportation array. It's not rare, but it's also a precious object, and it's too extravagant to be built into a city base!"

"His grandmother's, if this is not the masterpiece of the Ghost Emperor, Lao Tzu will not believe it if he dies!"

The fat ghost glared at the city wall viciously, and scolded this extravagant style again.

.....

After a lot of angry scolding, I finally got tired of scolding. Finally, he sat on the ground and stretched out his hands to Chu You and said, "What should I do now?"

Chu You also had no choice, and after squatting on the ground and drawing with his fingers for a long time, he sighed: "Maybe it's time for us to think about it in the long run." ”

After that, the two of them discussed the total again, got up and decided to go back to the baggage logistics to find a way.

....

After returning to the baggage area, the two went their separate ways.

Over the next two hours, the two men found two sturdy crowbars. And in a blacksmith's shop, they were twisted together with brute force with a hammer. Then he tore down several large flags in the barracks, pulled out their ropes and joined them together to form a long rope.

Finally, he returned to the bottom of the city wall, attached the long rope to the four-clawed crowbar, and threw it upwards together. I don't know how long it took to get stuck on the city wall.

After everything was done, the two of them sat on the ground together. Counting carefully, it was busy for five hours. Several trips back and forth added together, running dozens of miles.

"It's okay, if something goes wrong, I won't do it!"

The fat ghost sat on the ground and gasped.

Chu You on the side was also tired, and after resting for a long time, he said to the fat ghost: "After a while, I said that I would go first." You're too heavy, and if the rope breaks, no one will be able to get up. ”

"Okay, well, listen to you! Whoever falls in love with it!"

The fat ghost said impatiently: "Are you annoyed, don't stop the poor monk from resting!"

...

The two of them rested for half an hour.

After recovering his strength, Chu You walked to the city wall and pulled the rope, and his heart was quite strong. Jumping up, you reached the city wall in a few moments.

After going up, he took off the crowbar again and tied the rope to one of the thickest posts. It was okay to pull and pull many times before signaling the fat ghost to come up. And the fat ghost is also competitive, and even people with iron rods weigh three or four hundred pounds. Under Chu You's drag, he actually came up.

The most amazing thing is the rope. After all, I don't know how long it has been placed, but I can still bear the weight of the fat ghost.
