Chapter 26 The City of Bones

After this episode, I walked for three whole days, and it was not until the early morning of the fourth day that I saw the legendary city from afar.

However, the distance was too far, and it looked like rice millet with his eyes, and he could barely see it clearly after walking for two hours.

Looking up, I saw a huge ancient city in the distant desert. I used to look at the road and only look at the rice millet, but after getting a little closer, I found that it stretched for nearly a hundred miles.

Although dilapidated, in terms of size alone, it is enough to look down on any imperial palace in the world.

"Worthy of the city under the Blood Demon!"

Looking at this huge building complex, Chu Yu felt a little strange pride, as if he also had a share of the honor that belonged to the corpse king!

However, as he spoke, his footsteps did not stop, and he continued to walk towards the ancient city.

Maybe this city is really too huge, which actually makes him feel like he is running a dead horse in the mountains, and it took half an hour to walk under the city gate.

When I got closer, I felt a sense of vicissitudes and decay rushing towards me before I looked closely.

Looking up, I only feel that this city is huge and indescribable, full of the majestic and oppressive feeling of "black clouds crushing the city and wanting to destroy it". As if he was just an ant, he stood trembling beside a giant elephant.

Of course, describing this ancient city as a giant elephant is not an exaggeration at all. The large body and the simple style form a different harmony.

I saw that although this quaint and dilapidated city tower is nearly 100 zhang high, there is no decoration on it, only a bone plaque hangs on it, which adds a bit of ancient city charm.

The bone plaque is also dilapidated, but the three ancient seals with the words "Burial Bone City" on it are impressive. The dark red handwriting seems to be poured with animal blood, and it is still vigorous and powerful even if the years go by, simple and generous.

"I don't know what kind of beast's blood is used on this bone plaque, and who inscribed it. ”

Chu You looked at the bone plaque and sighed softly, but he didn't dare to speculate. just shook his head silently and said, "I'm afraid that all of them are terrifying existences." ”

Beneath the Bone City, a moat stretches for hundreds of miles around it, like a scarlet ribbon. It's just that the blood and water are tumbling and the waves are turbulent, and you can faintly see the scales and half-claws of the huge evil beast. If you fall into it, I'm afraid that the immortals will also have to hate it, and they will not be able to return to the sky.

And when he continued to walk, he saw that although the tower was large, there was no gate, and the great gate was open for people to enter and exit. There were no guards at the door, only two dry bones sitting on one side on the left and one on the right.

Chu You glanced at it, and saw that the two dry bones were covering their heads and faces with gray rotten robes, leaning against the wall and motionless, as if they had been dead for many years. If it weren't for the faint smell of the corpse on his body, I'm afraid it would really make people think of the dead on the side of the road.

This dry bone did not move, nor did it stop it, and Chu You didn't want to disturb them with his own boredness, so he walked into the city silently.

After walking less than 100 steps in the city, you will arrive at another world, which is not only full of death, but also extremely noisy "dancing demons"!

The city is huge, and there are a lot of necromantic ghosts. Looking around, I saw countless huge corpse beasts running and rushing, and bone birds gliding and neighing. Corpse leopards crouched around on the left and right, closing their eyes and resting. The ghost trees and sand grass swayed around far and near, laughing and screaming. Tens of thousands of skeletal walking corpses walked numbly like puppets on the road, and large and small bone snakes shuttled through the lazy sleeping ghouls on the roadside, burrowing in and out of their bodies.

There is even a team of ghost soldiers straddling corpse horses running around the city, just like human officers and soldiers. But it can't be far from this noisy picture.

Of course, they are also part of this noisy ghoul, and they just enjoy the spirit of riding horses, and never really care. It's not that they're negligent in their duties, it's the nature of the Hungry Ghost Dao, and their role is just to maintain the most basic order, warning the ghouls and preventing large-scale fights.

However, seeing this, Chu You was even more curious about what the Burial Bone City relied on to ensure the stability of the city. The ghosts and demons in this city are crazy, even the demons of hell are not far behind.

Looking at these crazy and chaotic scenes, Chu You only felt that his eardrums were shattered. After staying for less than a moment, he began to get restless and bored, and walked deeper into the city with his head down.

Chu You paced slowly, but there were always ghouls crashing into him without a head, and there were even some people who didn't have long eyes and yelled at him. However, fighting rashly in this unfamiliar environment, Chu You was also afraid of being sanctioned by a sudden master, so he has been putting up with it again and again.

Of course, these are all small things, and you can pass it with your eyes closed, so why be too angry.

As you walk, the surrounding buildings gradually begin to increase. It's just that although the buildings on the side of the street have their own characteristics, most of them are ruined. I'm afraid that even the most basic functions of shelter from the wind and rain may not be able to do it, let alone have the appearance of a home.

As soon as he remembered that the weather here was either full of yellow sand or torrential rain, Chu You was a little embarrassed. How can a broken house like Xindao resist.

Of course, he selectively forgot that he didn't even have these houses at the moment.

I walked around the city for an unknown amount of time, but I only knew that even his body felt tired.

If the land within a radius of 100 miles was in the previous life, it would be enough to establish a state and county, but here it is only a larger city. When I walked out of the mountain village, I was overjoyed to see a large family, thinking that I had seen the whole world. But now it seems so ridiculous...

Of course, the cultivation of his previous life was equivalent to the whole world, but here he would only be killed by the Blood Armor Corpse King he met that day. And there are probably countless corpse demons here that are more powerful than the Blood Armored Corpse King, so it seems just as ridiculous...

When he is bored, he loves to think crankily, which is Chu You's consistent problem. Of course, there are some things that are not destined to be boring, such as the billowing death gas gushing from the deepest part of the city...

From afar, the pitch-black dead air in the distance gushed up to the sky, like a living spring, endlessly. And that majestic dead air was only twenty or thirty miles away from Chu You, and it was the center of the city.

Seeing this, Chu You immediately quickened his pace, wanting to go and find out.

The continuous walking had exhausted him, but a strong curiosity tended him to walk harder. Finally, half an hour later, I walked through the ruins and houses and came to the center of this legend. However, as soon as he arrived, he was stunned by the sight in front of him.

It turned out that in the middle of the city was not some mountain range Lingchuan, but a pile of huge bones!
