To the east of the Living Continent, to the west of the plain where the ocean currents have bounced, the junction of the Iron Empire and the Longze Empire is a mysterious mountain and forest. At the foot of the western entrance to the mountain range lies a tavern with a quaint architecture.

Due to the mountains, the sun only shines near noon, so the owner of this tavern named the tavern "Dawn Dawn", hoping to warn people that if they pass through the mountains behind them, they will see the real dawn.

Qin Tao, Tang Xuexin, and Ling Shan were suspended in the sky opposite the tavern, and the nearly one-day flight had already made their faces show a hint of exhaustion.

Tang Xuexin finally chose to go with Qin Tao according to her own heart, and as for the opposition of her father and grandfather, she couldn't shake the love in her heart.

At this time, there was no sunlight in the tavern, only a dim candlelight, and several burly men at the round table in the center were drinking excitedly, seemingly not caring about the light of the tavern. In a dark corner, a young man whose face could not be seen was sitting quietly, and it was impossible to tell whether he was napping or awake because of the darkness.

Behind the bar full of fine wines stood a beautiful woman, whose face was covered with heavy makeup, but her own beauty was not hidden by these external objects. Undoubtedly, this beautiful woman is the most beautiful scenery in the tavern.

Seeing Ling Shan, the beautiful woman took the lead in greeting warmly: "Yo, Lord Ling, what kind of wind has blown you here!"

The beautiful woman's voice is very soft, and it is easy to make people think about it when you hear it for the first time. Even Qin Tao was inevitably disturbed.

Tang Xuexin took Qin Tao's hand, looked at the beautiful woman and leaned towards Qin Tao's side at the same time, and the beautiful woman glanced here and then restrained her soul-stirring voice a little.

Ling Shan stood by the bar. He smiled and said to the beautiful woman, "Rose, don't come unharmed." ”

The beautiful woman fiddled with the shiny wine glass in front of her and said, "People are not like you, they are very leisurely." ”

Ling Shan's smile was still the same, but his voice was lowered: "Let's get down to business, Rose, I came today to let my apprentice enter the Sea Killing Purgatory. ”

"Oh?" the beautiful woman glanced at Qin Tao and Tang Xuexin. Then he said, "Don't you know the rules here, I can't do it with two people." As he spoke, he turned around and put a bottle on the wine rack behind him.

"I'll only send one apprentice in. Ling Shan hurriedly said.

Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman actually laughed. teased: "Is the other one willing?"

Ling Shan shook his head: "We've already decided, you don't have to worry about it." ”

The beautiful woman took a muslin and wiped it on the shiny glass, and said, "Which one is going?"

"Boys. Ling Shan replied simply.

"Oh. The beautiful woman stopped what she was doing, and then moved a little closer to Ling Shan. smiled and said, "You look a little handsome. You might as well stay with me. ”

Smelling the seductive fragrance emitted by the beautiful woman, Ling Shan hurriedly calmed down and refused: "Blood Rose, don't beat me for this futile idea, otherwise you won't blame me for not reminding you." ”

Blood Rose "cut", then picked up the muslin and continued to wipe the wine glass, while saying, "Who is rare...... Okay, I'll give you some time to separate. ”

said. Blood Rose pushed a bottle of wine over and said, "I gave you this wine." Let's separate well. ”

Ling Shan smiled and said, "There is no need for wine, thank you first, Rose." ”

The three of them sat down at a round table, and Ling Shan said straight to the point: "Tao'er, this is the intersection of the Sea Killing Purgatory, and the one at the bar is the owner of this tavern and the gatekeeper of the Sea Killing Purgatory, known as the 'Blood Rose'. ”

"Could it be that the Sea Killing Purgatory is in the mountains behind?" Qin Tao exclaimed.

Ling Shan shook his head: "No, it's underground, and the tavern has a passage to get there." However, there is a rule to enter from here, which is that only one person can enter the tavern before the sun hits the tavern. ”

Qin Tao had already explained to Tang Xuexin about entering the Sea Killing Purgatory alone, so now that he heard Ling Shan say this, Tang Xuexin didn't show too much surprise.

"And. Ling Shan continued: "Tao'er, the Sea Killing Purgatory is full of blood and killing, everyone lives a life of licking blood from the knife's edge, and it is possible to be killed if you are not careful, but only in this way can you cultivate the killing qi, you have to remember." ”

"Well, Grandpa, I understand. Qin Tao nodded in agreement.

"Okay, Tao'er, the young master and I can only send you here, I hope to see you again soon. With that, Ling Shan stood up and walked to the bar.

Tang Xuexin's eyes were a little moist and threw herself into Qin Tao's arms, hugging the lovers who were about to separate.

Qin Tao hugged Tang Xuexin and comforted: "Don't worry, Xuexin, I promise you that you will come back safely." ”

There may not be so many words between them, but a gesture and a sound of comfort are enough to satisfy them, because their hearts have already met.

Tang Xuexin wiped her reddened eyes, and said to Qin Tao with a smile: "Brother Tao, I am waiting for you in the barbarian territory." ”

Holding Tang Xuexin's slender jade hand and standing up from her seat together, Qin Tao nodded vigorously and said, "Wait for me." ”

Coming to the bar, Blood Rose looked at Qin Tao and asked with a smile, "Ready?"

Qin Tao nodded vigorously and replied with a "hmm".

"Come with me. As he spoke, the figure of the Blood Rose flashed in front of a small door in the corner.

Qin Tao looked at Ling Shan and Tang Xuexin, nodded slightly, and then followed without looking back.

Entering the small door, passing through a long dark passage, when he could see a glimmer of light, Blood Rose suddenly stopped, and said to Qin Tao: "Going out from the light is where you are going, good luck!" After speaking, Blood Rose disappeared in place.

Qin Tao walked forward alone, and soon reached the place where the light came from.

The magical underground turned out to be bright, as if the sun would shine all day long, and what surprised Qin Tao even more was that this sea-killing purgatory turned out to be a city, a city buried deep underground.

Entering the city from a small road, everyone on the street was dressed in the most ordinary clothes on the mainland, and their appearance was no different from that of the people on the ground, but their eyes were full of a cold indifference.

As he walked, Qin Tao saw several strong men fighting in the streets, some bloody corpses lying horizontally in the middle of the road, and a few people were even using knives to cut off the dead flesh that had not yet rotted.

These scenes seem to be a commonplace thing for the people here, but they are still a little unacceptable to Qin Tao, who came here for the first time.

Enduring the pain of nausea, Qin Tao hurriedly fled into a tavern, and at this time he most hoped for a pot of spirits to suppress his shock.

The people in the tavern were all sitting alone, and as soon as Qin Tao entered the door, he encountered several unfamiliar cold lights, and from these eyes, Qin Tao even sensed a trace of murderous aura.

The tavern owner behind the bar was a kind-looking middle-aged man, and after seeing Qin Tao gulping down a pot of spirits, he asked with a smile, "Little brother is here for the first time, right?"

His mind stabilized a little, and with the strength of the wine, Qin Tao responded: "Yes." ”

"Little brother, I see that you are new here, and you don't know a lot of things, so it is better to stay with me for one night, so that I can tell you in detail. The man's smile was still on his face, and he said gently.

"It's good, it's good......"

The liquor made Qin Tao's mind a little dizzy, and he unconsciously felt sleepy, so he didn't think about anything carefully, so he agreed to the boss's suggestion in one gulp.

As the man entered an upstairs guest room, Qin Tao, who was a little dizzy, immediately fell into the soft futon and fell unconscious.

"Little brother, little brother!"

The middle-aged man tried to scream a few times, and at the same time touched Qin Tao's body, and when he confirmed that Qin Tao did not react, he smiled evilly, and then closed the door from the outside.

However, the moment the door closed, a black figure suddenly appeared in the room...... (To be continued......)
