Chapter 1303: Dry Corpse

The area of Little Shura City is not very large, and this is the most cutting-edge outpost in the Demon Realm. Since the Second Immortal and Demon War, in order to protect the safety of the Demon Realm, a total of one hundred and eight border cities like this little Shura City have been built at the border, and the army will be stationed in rotation every once in a while.

The city of Little Shura is the most prominent of them all, the outermost one. At the beginning, it was the most elite border army of the Demon Sect that was stationed here. Now that so many years have passed, the border city has been swallowed by the desert, and as for those border troops, either they have left, or the border city has dried corpses buried under the desert.

"I came to Little Shura City once a long, long time ago, when it was still very busy. Although the city is not large, it is very lively. I think the location at our feet was probably the main street, and there were shops on both sides selling everything. ”

Da Tianlie reminisced as he walked, his eyes full of sadness.

He hadn't returned to the Demon Realm for too long, and when he came back, he saw such a barren world, how could he feel good.

"When I saw the dried corpse just now, I was still wondering, did I know him when he was alive? It's so small, there are only five hundred and sixty-six soldiers in the garrison, one general, two adjutant generals. I've only been here once, but I can name each and every one of them. ”

Da Tianlie stopped and pointed to his feet: "If I didn't make much mistake, we should be the Little Shura City General's Mansion below, and the treasury is in the General's Mansion, the specific location is not easy to find, so we have to dig for a while." ”

Du said thinly: "I'll just come here for this kind of strength work, Da Tianlie, you go to the side first and slow down, I think you are not very comfortable." ”

Da Tianlie was silent for a moment: "You guys dig first, I have to go back and go to the teleportation circle, then we just dug up the dry corpse and bury it again." He slept well, and we disturbed me, and I had to go back to him for a while. ”

"I'll be with you. ”

Chen Shaobai could see that Da Tianlie was in a bad mood, so he nodded to An Zheng and kept up with Da Tianlie's pace.

An Zheng and the others began to clean up the sand in this place, which is actually easy to say, but it is not an easy task to do. The sand is fluid, and the sand layer is so thick. If you dig in this place, the sand around you will flow like water.

An Zheng scattered his Reverse Scale Divine Armor to form a hundred and eight separate layers, which were deeply inserted into the sand layer, and then several people cleared the sand out of the fenced place. It's not that complicated for them, and if they were ordinary people, they would be difficult to complete.

In about six or seven minutes, the roof of the General's Mansion was already exposed, but fortunately no more dried corpses were found, otherwise Da Tianlie would have been in a bad mood when he came back and saw it in a while. Although Chen Shaobai is the reincarnation of the demon lord, he no longer has the memory of that era, and he does not have such deep feelings for the demon world, so emotionally speaking, he is far worse than Da Tianlie.

At this time, Da Tianlie and Chen Shaobai came back, and their faces were a little wrong.

"Anzheng, something is not good. ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's gone. ”

"What's missing?"

"The dried corpse we dug up just now is gone...... We originally thought that it was swallowed by quicksand, but Da Tianlie was not at ease, and after digging for a while, there was still nothing. Then we saw footprints behind the dunes, which were heavy and not the footprints left by normal steps. There are footprints about a dozen meters away, and the two feet are side by side, which means they are jumping and walking......"

As soon as Chen Shaobai's words were finished, Du's thin face turned white. Although he is notoriously bold, he is still sensitive to this kind of thing.

"No...... No way. ”

Du Slender looked surprised: "Are you mistaken, those are the footprints left when we came." ”

"You're walking in a tight way?"

Chen Shaobai asked rhetorically, and then said, "We didn't go far at all before, and we left the teleportation circle and came here directly." And with our cultivation, it is impossible to leave such deep footprints. ”

"Be careful, everybody. ”

An Zheng pondered for a while and said, "We need to find the magic stone to restart the teleportation circle, so the treasury must be dug out. Before that, no one should leave, and you must not be left alone. In this way, Du Slender and I continued to dig. Xuanting monk, monkeys, you are on guard on the left in a group of two. Shaobai, you and Da Tianlie's group are on guard on the right. No matter what happens, don't leave the people around you. It's not like we've never encountered this kind of strange thing, as long as we don't mess up, there won't be any big problems. ”

Everyone nodded, divided into two groups of guard, two people next to each other, lest something happen.

"Dig into the door. ”

Du Shou straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief, because the age was too old, neither of them dared to use too much cultivation power. The house here may not be as sturdy anymore, and the slightest carelessness can destroy it.

"It's strange how the house is empty. ”

"What's strange about the house being empty. ”

"I mean, why isn't there a grain of sand in the house. ”

Du stood there and glanced into the room, then quickly retreated, and his face instantly turned pale: "There are people inside!"

An Zheng immediately swept over to block in front of Du Shousian, and the eight-fold black ruler had been summoned to block the road ahead. But after waiting for a while, there was no response, and he placed eight times the black ruler in front of him and leaned forward cautiously.

"Be careful, I just saw a chair in the room, and there was a person sitting on the chair, still smiling at me. ”

An Zheng snorted, looked inside vigilantly when he walked to the door, and then said, "It's okay, it's a dry corpse, obviously it's been dead for a long time." Fat man, are you scared silly......."

Du Slender leaned over to take a look and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "But I obviously saw him smiling at me." ”

An Zheng patted him on the shoulder, turned back to Chen Shaobai and shouted. Chen Shaobai and Da Tianlie came down first, and the monkey and the Xuanting monk broke off. This is the main entrance of the General's Mansion, and the house is considered a gatehouse, and it has not yet entered the courtyard. An Zheng pushed open the door in front and entered, and the eight-fold black ruler blocked the front in case something unexpected happened.

After entering the gatehouse, he found that it was a dry corpse sitting upright on a chair, and he was wearing the special armor of a demon soldier, and he could be sure that he was a qualified soldier from his sitting position, and his body was straight when he sit.

He held the long knife in both hands, the tip of which was pressed against the ground, and died like this. Apparently at the moment of his death, he probably didn't know that something was going on. If it was suddenly swallowed up by the desert, it was impossible for him to remain seated.

"Something is wrong, you probably guessed it, the people here have been attacked before. ”

Chen Shaobai took a closer look: "There are no wounds, and this person didn't even react at all when he died, obviously he was attacked suddenly." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a monkey shout behind him: "What man!"

As soon as he turned around, he saw that the monkey had chased him out. An Zheng screamed, but the monkey had gone far as if he hadn't heard. An Zheng asked them not to move in the room, and rushed out one after the other with the Xuanting monk.

I thought that the monkey would rush out a long way, but when I got to the door, I saw that the monkey had returned, and I was surprised.

"I saw someone. ”

The monkey frowned: "But when I came out, I didn't see anything." ”

"Someone has been here......"

An Zheng's hand pointed to the ground behind the monkey, and there was a layer of sand on the ground, so the footprints were clear....... The two feet are side by side, more than ten meters away. So, there are people who have been here, and they have been bouncing around.

"Damn, it's evil. ”

Even the monkey felt a little terrifying, and subconsciously glanced at the Xuanting monk.

"I'll cut it off. ”

The Xuanting monk clasped his hands together and chanted words in his mouth, and after a moment, a white lotus flower appeared above his head, glowing softly like a lantern. The white lotus flower flew higher and higher, and then hung over the entire General's Mansion, illuminating the General's Mansion. In the place shrouded in white light, there was a peaceful and warm atmosphere.

"If anyone comes near, I'll notice. ”

The Xuanting monk walked to the courtyard and sat down cross-legged: "You go and look for it, try to be as fast as possible, my cultivation has not fully recovered, and the scope that can be protected is not as large as before." ”

The monkey said, "I'll accompany you, you go find it as soon as possible." ”

An Zheng snorted, and Chen Shaobai and they returned to the General's Mansion to prepare to find the magic stone. After entering the door, An Zheng suddenly stood again, and his face became even more difficult to look at. Chen Shaobai pulled An Zheng by the hand, and found that An Zheng was looking at the side motionlessly. Chen Shaobai took a step back and looked at An Zheng's line of sight: "What's wrong?"

After asking, Chen Shaobai knew what was wrong...... His face instantly turned ugly. The place where An Zheng was standing was the gate, and next to it was the porter, that is, the place where a dry corpse sitting on a chair was found just now. The door didn't close when they rushed out, so they had a good look...... There was only one chair left in the room, and the dried corpse was gone.

Du Slender looked frightened: "I don't want to stay here for a second now." ”

Chen Shaobai said: "What are you afraid of, with your and my cultivation, you will be scared by some dried corpses!"

He snorted: "If you don't come out, it's fine, I want to see what can happen." ”

Then he suddenly reacted and looked at An Zheng: "Have you seen Da Tianlie?"

Everyone was stunned at the same time, and then their scalps exploded at the same time. Da Tianlie was still by their side just now, and he didn't pay attention after chasing them out. At this time, look at it, where is there still the shadow of the Great Heavenly Flame around. An Zheng looked around and found that there were more footprints on the ground, some of which were side by side and not separated, and a string of normal footprints led to the distance, which was inside the General's Mansion.

"Chase!"

Chen Shaobai was the first to rush out, after all, Da Tianlie was his most loyal attendant. And at this moment, An Zheng discovered something even more numb.

In the middle of the courtyard, the Xuanting monk sat cross-legged and maintained the magic circle, and the monkey stood beside the Xuanting monk to protect. And behind the Xuanting monk, there stood a dried corpse that bent down and looked at the Xuanting monk....... So close, so close.
