Chapter Seventy-Three: Xue Cheya
"Come, please use tea. ”
Three white ancient porcelain cups filled with warm tea and placed them in front of the three of them one by one.
The three of them sat around a round table, and it was the girl who had seen them before.
The girl's hair color and eye color are very bizarre, but they give people a very comfortable feeling.
"Thank you, hello girl, we are travelers who have come to the Far North to explore, and we happened to pass by here, and we don't know where this is?
Meng Qianji exchanged glances with the two of them, chatted with the girl, and secretly tested the tea with his soul power, and found that there was no abnormality, so he nodded with the two of them, indicating that they could drink it.
The tea was no problem, they had already been thirsty all the way, so Shen Tian and Yan Qingwan took the tea and drank it.
Hearing Meng Qianji ask, the girl said slowly:
"This place was built in recent years, we are the outcasts of Longyearbyen, pregnant women and old people who are about to die are brought here every year, because Longyearbyen's city does not allow birth and death, so we are taken out, we have nowhere to go without the city, so we built such a town ourselves. ”
"Every year there are births and burials of old people, and the birth and death happen at the same time, so we call it Urato. ”
"My name is Xue Cheya, my mother gave birth to me and lived in this town, I don't know who my father is, and then my mother died because of an accident, so I lived on my own. ”
Xue Cheya quietly tells the story of this place, as if telling a calm story, and the tea is pouring hot from the pot into the cup, and the sound of snoring sounds.
"I see, births and deaths are not allowed, so are pregnant women and the elderly driven out of the city?"
A touch of anger appeared on Meng Qianji's face, and this kind of approach was indeed quite resentful.
"After all, Longyearbyen is also a cursed city, the dead and the born in Longyearbyen's city will be used as food for the city guards, the city guards only eat the newly dead and the born, and people don't want their wives and families to be eaten by the city beasts, so they all give them out. ”
"It's not so much that the Guardian Beast is guarding Longyearbyen, it's that the young men in Longyearbyen are worshipping the Guardian Beast, and the people in Longyearbyen's City are doing the same work every day. ”
"What job?"
"Cast knives. ”
"Cast Knife?!"
"That's right, it was hundreds of thousands of people who forged a knife, the name of the knife is Ice Raccoon Snow Tail, and it is the knife of God. ”
"The city defender beast is a snow-tailed ice raccoon dog with 100,000 years of cultivation, a fox with fluff like ice and snow, and six big white tails, the raccoon dog tail is sharp, it is its weapon, it is rumored that it is the mount of the god of the god realm, because the god realm is not suitable for casting knives, so it was sent to the Douluo Continent to cast knives with the hair dropped from its tail, and when the artifact casting is completed, it will return to the god realm. ”
When Xue Cheya told this, she was still very calm, as if she was just telling an ancient myth, but the actual situation was that near Longyearbyen City not far away, there was a creature with a hundred thousand years of cultivation that was at the immortal level among soul beasts! It lay on its claws and looked at Longyearbyen as if it were its own toy, and the people in it were forging a knife that could be forged at some unknown time and year, and these people were like ants to it that could be crushed to death at will, and once someone cleaned it, it would erupt with terrifying anger and combat power!
Meng Qianji's hand holding the teacup trembled a little.
"Uh, may I ask Miss Xue Cheya, is there any other way to enter the Far North?"
"The Star Luo Empire is closer to the Extreme North, and it only needs to pass through a sea of ice, and people who want to enter the Extreme North will go to Dongyang City of the Star Luo Empire to take a boat, even the people of the Heaven Dou Empire are no exception, few people go from Longyearbyen's side, a few people should not have taken the initiative to come here, I guess you fled here in a hurry." ”
Xue Cheya looked at the three of Meng Qianji with a pair of blue eyes, and the three of them were shocked when they heard this, and the dark sky and Meng Qianji were ready to make a move at any time.
"Don't be so wary of me, I just want to live here peacefully, you spend the night here, if you still want to go to Longyearbyen, go there, the far north is very dangerous, if you don't want to go, it's too late for you to turn back." ”
"Guys, I'm going to prepare dinner for tonight. ”
Xue Cheya bowed her head slightly and nodded, but she no longer paid attention to Meng Qianji and the three of them leaving.
"Master, this ......"
"Is she true or false?"
Shentian looked at Meng Qianji and asked.
Meng Qianji's voice trembled a little at this time, and his face was frightened.
"It's true, when I followed your Holy Spirit Sect Leader to Longyearbyen, I was faced with a snow-white creature like a fox and a raccoon dog, its six long tails were very sharp, we were not opponents, the Holy Spirit Sect suffered heavy losses in that battle, and in the end less than ten people escaped. ”
"Then Master, can you still beat it now?"
"It's hard to say. ”
Meng Qianji grunted, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and drank all the tea in the cup.
The Far North is in a state of eternal daylight, but it is still some distance from the Far North, and there are four hours of night every day, and after the night has passed, there are twenty long days.
After eating, Meng Qianji, Shentian, and Yan Qingwan were settled in a room by Xue Cheya, where she lived was very small, there were not many rooms, and there was no one else in this village to take them in.
Meng Qianji lay on the ground thinking about things, Yan Qingwan lay quietly on the bed and fell asleep, looking out the window, worried.
"Master, have you slept?"
"No, no. ”
"What's wrong?
"I think there's something weird about this town, and that Xue Cheya seems to be hiding something from us. ”
Shentian looked at Meng Qianji and said.
"Well, I've noticed that most of what she said is true, but there must be something hidden under the truth. ”
"How about it? Would you like to go to the town and take a look?"
"Now?"
"Well, it's okay, just let me go, Master, you take care of Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan can't be without a strong person around to take care of her, once you notice that something is wrong, I will withdraw immediately." ”
Shentian looked at Meng Qianji and said.
"Okay, be careful. ”
"Dream Demon!"
"Wow!"
The Dream Thousand Machine Soul Seal was released, and his martial soul Dream Demon appeared in a small room.
"Follow the Underworld, protect him, and come back as soon as there is danger. ”
"Woohoo!"
The dream demon nodded at Meng Qianji, motioned for the dark sky to sit on his back, and the dark sky sat on the dream demon's back, and the next moment he rushed out of the window and came to the street.
The streets were silent, everyone was asleep, and the scarce moonlight peeked out of the clouds and sprinkled on the streets.
The dream demon carried the Stygian Heaven, sniffing and moving its nose, as if it had discovered something.
"What's wrong?"
Styx asked the Dream Demon. The dream demon didn't speak, and walked towards a corner with the Stygian Heaven.
Through the moonlight, Shentian saw that it was a little child, the little girl who Yan Qingwan asked for directions during the day!
It's strange, how could such a young child, who is not good at staying at home, appear here?
Stygian and the Dream Demon cautiously approach the child and find the child crying.
Goosebumps instantly rose in the dark sky, in the middle of the night, in the mysterious town, crying children, how weird they thought!
His heart is also a little hairy, what is the situation?
He's just a kid, and he's scared of horrors.
Styx swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but still quietly approached the child with the dream demon.
The child noticed that a big creature was approaching her, and when she looked up, she saw the Dream Demon and the Stygian riding on the back of the Dream Demon.
"Ahh
The little girl screamed in fright, and sat down on the ground and tried to run.
"Shhh ”
Stygian boos said to the little girl, stretched out his hand to her, and asked:
"What's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Why are you alone?"
The little girl looked at the dark sky, her eyes gradually became happy, and then she was frightened, and cried out:
"No, get out of here! they'll kill you! Run!"
"What are they?"
"Yes......"
Before the little girl finished speaking, in the shadows behind her, a strange puppet-like creature raised its spiky arm and stabbed the little girl's neck with an expressionless face!
"Pop ......"
Blood flowed from the little girl's neck, and she died in front of the Styx, and in front of the Stygian, something that looked like a puppet and a puppet was clucking and opening its mouth, as if mocking, expressionless, extremely weird......
