Chapter 342: Rain Street City: Golden Seal Lock
The rain that falls from the sky is gray, and the dripping on the body is not washing, but staining. The perennial rain has left the city rusty as if it were a dilapidated old city.
Yujie City, Zhang Haotian's final destination is a city shrouded in rain all year round, and it is precisely when they see this vision that Zhang Haotian and they will have a real sense of approaching the Dao realm.
The horse's iron hooves stepped on the water-soaked pavement, making a unique sound of metal colliding in the water, Zhang Haotian glanced down at the road and the surrounding buildings, the pitch-black surface was with yellow-red rust spots. This eerie city seems to have been made entirely of black iron.
Zhang Haotian has also seen a similar city, but he has not looked at its whole picture, Qiyan City and Yujie City are quite similar.
But unlike the comfortable refreshment of Qiyan City, all Zhang Haotian could feel in Yujie City was a thick depression, the depressing rain, the endless sound of striking iron, and the gray sky, all of which made people so unpleasant.
And what made Zhang Haotian feel most uncomfortable was not these, but the Daofan connection point in Yujie City.
The Daofan connection point stood in the center of Yujie City, huge and conspicuous, before entering the city, Zhang Haotian and they had already seen the existence of the Daofan connection point from a distance.
It was as if there was a piece of the sky missing, there was nothing in that place, not even the rain, but the huge square gray pillars stretched into the hollow, twisting into indescribable shapes at the top, stretching to the other side where they could not see.
Do they really want to go back to the Dao Realm through such a thing? Zhang Haotian was a little incredulous, but Wu Hao was sure that he had come to the Mortal Realm through this Dao Fan connection point back then.
Although the atmosphere of Yujie City is depressing, Zhang Haotian and Wang Zhao still have a faint sense of peace of mind when they come here. They are people from the Dao Realm, who have been walking in the Mortal Realm, and they are more or less uncomfortable with people and things that have never been seen in the Dao Realm.
But in Yujie City, it's different, as the connection point of Dao Fan, a considerable number of talismans live here, and the style here has more or less the flavor of the Dao realm. For Zhang Haotian and Wang Zhao, who had been running around in the mortal realm for two months, this sense of familiarity was very precious.
However, in comparison, Wu Hao is not so comfortable, he knows Yujie City better than Zhang Haotian and Wang Zhao, knows the real darkness behind it, and has personally experienced that kind of discomfort.
The carriage kept moving in the direction of the Daofan connection point, and it was very coincidental that the ghost spirit they wanted to purify on this trip happened to be in the area of the Daofan connection point, so they simply solved the ghosts, and then returned to the Dao realm from the Daofan connection point with peace of mind, Zhang Haotian thought it would be such a simple thing at first.
But the reality will never be as smooth as the ideal, when the carriage was stopped by a group of people, Zhang Haotian realized that in Yujie City, they were afraid that they would only encounter more troublesome things than before.
"Where did you come from, what did you do at the connection point of Dao Fan in the past?" The strong man with dark skin and a meaty face among the four walked out and asked in front of Zhang Haotian.
Compared with him, Zhang Haotian is simply a petite head and weak. Among the people Zhang Haotian met, probably only the hall master Chen Chu had such a burly figure.
"We are the Soul Purifier who came from the Pure Heart Hall at the invitation of the owner of the Nimbus Pavilion to purify the soul. Wu Hao lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to the strong man.
Originally, self-reporting should be a matter of course, explaining the origin, it should be better to speak, but today it is not used. The closer they got to the way back, the more trouble Zhang Haotian and the others encountered.
As soon as he heard the words "Soul Purifier", the faces of the people in front of him immediately changed greatly, Zhang Haotian saw the hostility on their faces, and just wanted to drive the Snow Word Shield Sky, but those people were faster than them.
"Gold sigils, bundle locks. ”
The Golden Seal of the Six Crowds. Four people, the four golden seal locks directly hit the hands of the four people, making their palms unable to move at all, and they couldn't take out the Dao talisman to cast spells.
It is very difficult to accurately hit the hand, but they are too close, and these four people are probably always ready to move, Zhang Haotian and they did not have any preparation, so they fell into their trap all of a sudden.
"What are you doing? We're here to purify the soul!" Wu Hao shouted excitedly.
"What are you doing? It's just you soul purifiers!" the strong man pushed Wu Hao viciously, and Wu Hao overturned on his back on the carriage.
"Obviously your people called us over, why are you treating us like this now? We haven't done anything!" Zhang Haotian argued.
"I want to know, it's you soul purifiers, I didn't expect to shake your wit, pretend to be big-headed ghosts, not only can't deal with ghosts, but also killed the hall master, and now the young master has killed all the previous soul purifiers, and now you are the same. The strong man scolded.
Zhang Haotian simply felt that this was quite unreasonable: "If others can't do it, it means that we can't do it, and besides, we haven't done anything, and we didn't kill people." ”
"It's you, how long have we been entrusted by the Pure Heart Hall, it took more than two months to get here, all the dishes are cold, in order to solve the urgent need The pavilion owner invited the nearby Pure Soul Master, but none of them succeeded, and the harmful pavilion owner lost his life, and now the Daofan connection point can not be used, we have so many talismans here, we can't even go back to visit relatives. ”
The strong man scolded and explained everything to Zhang Haotian. Wu Hao didn't expect that so many things had happened in the two months that they had been on the road, and what Zhang Haotian said to comfort him that day had become empty words.
However, Zhang Haotian did not give up the struggle: "Isn't it that you didn't wait for us well, and privately invited a third-rate soul purifier to suffer the bitter fruits? If you obediently wait for us to come over, there will be no such thing at all, and Master Chen Sanshun will not misestimate the situation of the ghosts." ”
What Zhang Haotian said was just his own speculation, and there was no basis, but at this time, he still had to make himself right, and he was very concerned about the situation of the Dao Fan connection point, if it couldn't be used, then they wouldn't be able to go back to the Dao Realm, which couldn't be helped.
"Unload all the talismans from them. The strong man shouted at the people behind him, one by one, and searched up and down for the talismans on their bodies.
All the objects suspected of being talismans on their bodies were unloaded, especially Wu Hao, whose whole body was stripped clean, and none of the purifiers were left on their bodies.
However, the snowflake pie rune made by Zhang Shui is too confusing compared to ordinary runes, and Zhang Shui does not like to add too many patterns to the runes, and will only leave a snowflake pattern. So they landed two talismans on Zhang Haotian and did not confiscate them.
The Snow Word Shield and the Snow Word Drive, these two look like good-looking wristguards and a rag stuffed around the waist, which did not attract the strong man who searched at all, Zhang Haotian was silent, not wanting the strong man to notice.
"Where's your talisman? How could a talisman master not have a talisman to store the talisman?" Unable to find the talisman on Zhang Haotian's body, the strong man couldn't help but be suspicious.
Zhang Haotian pretended to be embarrassed: "I can't use the Dao Talisman, so I don't have that kind of thing, just put the luggage on other people." ”
"I don't know how to use talismans?Do you think I'm so easy to deceive?How can a self-proclaimed soul purifier not use talismans?" The strong man was obviously not that easy to fool, although Zhang Haotian really couldn't use the six talismans.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it!" Wang Zhao said more, obviously unconvinced.
"How could we possibly put the Dao Talisman in your hands again. The strong man felt that Wang Zhao was fooling him.
Zhang Haotian calmly explained: "As long as there is a Dao Spirit, you can use a talisman, even if you can't use a Dao Talisman, the Purifier is a kind of talisman, why can't I be a Soul Purifier?"
In the face of Zhang Haotian's explanation, the strong man really couldn't think of any answer for a while, and stood in place, speechless.
"Captain, don't talk nonsense with them, take them back and explain to the young master. Another thin man leaned over to the strong man and said.
The strong man widened his eyes, pointed at Zhang Haotian and scolded: "I'll take you to the young master, see that you are still here with a hard mouth, we can't kill you?" ”
The four of them pulled the carriage and walked in the direction of the Nimbus Pavilion, and Wang Zhao sat obediently in the carriage, waiting for these guards to take them to the Nimbus Pavilion.
On the contrary, Wu Hao was not as calm as them, and he was so anxious that he wanted to scratch his head, but his hand was locked by the golden seal, and he couldn't even scratch his head.
"Why aren't you in a hurry, we're going to be arrested and executed, and we might die. ”
"Die, die, you can't go back to the Dao Realm anyway, it's all the same. Wang Zhao looked up and leaned against the carriage, as if he had completely given up struggling.
Wu Hao couldn't understand this mentality of waiting for death, but Wang Zhao actually didn't sit still, he noticed that Zhang Haotian's snow shield was still there, and Zhang Haotian didn't take any action to indicate that he had an idea in his heart, but it was just inconvenient to say it.
So Wang Zhao decided to accompany Zhang Haotian to perform this play, and he believed that Zhang Haotian's actions must be meaningful.
Poor Wu Hao was still in the dark, but Zhang Haotian didn't plan to remind him, which would alleviate others' suspicions of them.
The carriage was constantly shaking, and Zhang Haotian looked at the Daofan connection point outside, which was huge and eye-catching. The way back is imminent, but they want to go around here, and maybe even the road ahead is different, and they have to start all over again.
They couldn't afford to waste any more time here, and it had been two months since they left the Dao Realm. The time to kill the blood is getting closer and closer, and if you can't go back, then all your previous efforts will be in ashes.
Zhang Haotian hopes to convince him in front of the young master and let him let them go, now that the ghosts have not been solved, the risk still exists, and they should need a soul purifier to deal with the ghosts.
