Chapter 263: Half-Human, Half-Demon, Demon Monarch! (Ask for a commuter pass!) )
Li Ran stared at the place where the black mist collided with the white mist.
Because soon, the pick-up procession will collide head-on with the funeral procession.
The road is not wide, but narrow but not narrow, and can be passed by a horse-drawn carriage.
Eight sedan chairs and coffin carriages, if they meet, who will let whom?
Generally, when the wedding and funeral are married, the gongs and drums can be heard far away for the funeral, and the team for the happy event will choose to detour or avoid, but there is a road in front of you, two hundred years of copper drums are ringing in unison, mourning music is played together, and the picture of red and white is about to collide is more weird and weird.
But just when Li Ran thought that neither of the two completely different teams would let anyone give way, the two teams stopped at the junction line at the same time.
The two teams didn't collide with each other.
While the suona drums are ringing in unison, there is the sound of mourning gongs.
On one side is an eight-lift sedan chair, and on the other side is a red lacquered wooden coffin.
The black fog surges, and the white fog spreads.
Hiding in the bushes, Li Ran looked at the extremely strange scene in front of him in disbelief.
Suddenly, the sound of gong mourning and crying and suona drum music came to an abrupt end.
Both sides stopped, as they were commonly called.
"What is this?" Li Ran was puzzled.
The phoenix butterfly on the back of his hand was still trembling, and he didn't dare to continue flying.
This means that there is something in the area that is very frightening to it.
Is it in the eight-carried sedan chair, or in the red lacquered wooden coffin?
In Li Ran's eyes, whether it is the linen and filial piety team under the black fog, or the festive red kissing team in the white fog, all of them exude a terrible sense of death and weirdness.
Because of the thick fog, he couldn't see the appearance of everyone in the two teams, let alone the bride sitting in the sedan chair.
But even if he couldn't see it clearly, Li Ran could be sure that the figures in these two teams were not alive.
He sensed that the teams on both sides were full of dazzling Chenguang, indicating that these were all weird.
It's all ghosts!
"Oh, I thought I met a Yin soldier to borrow the way, but I didn't expect to meet the two Yin Soul teams for marriage and funeral." Li Ran was inexplicably stunned in his heart, he didn't dare to breathe now, and his face was extremely solemn.
Suddenly, the figure at the head of the funeral procession laid down a red cloth in the middle of the road.
The sound of the bride crying came from the eight-lift sedan chair.
Just as he was shocked, the woods in front of him suddenly retreated in both directions, and a gloomy path appeared in the woods.
Then, the two teams marched mightily down the path.
The two teams marched in unison, beating gongs and drums, and the sound of suona drums sounded.
Seeing such a scene, Li Ran was stupid.
What's going on?
Black and white fog poured into the gloomy path of the bamboo forest.
In the mist, there are many ghosts.
What's even more terrifying is that in addition to the figures of the White Soul Banner and the Red Umbrella, there are also huge and deformed Horror Shadows behind the two teams, and even a hill-like Horror Shadow follows the two teams into the gloomy path in the bamboo forest.
The wedding and funeral procession seems to have opened a passage to a mysterious place, attracting countless shadows to enter it.
Li Ran noticed that around the forest, more and more shadows in the black fog and white fog followed the two teams.
Some of the more terrifying figures had no lower limbs and walked only on the support of their slender arms, some were shaped like giant cats, with two tails and human heads, and even ghost women in ancient costumes followed.
"Baba, go there, go there." Xiao Yusu excitedly pulled Li Ran's finger and pointed to the gloomy bamboo forest passage and said.
Only then did Li Ran discover that Xiao Yusu's basic power value had increased from 8600 to 8800, and it was still increasing automatically.
This means that the concentration of dark aura in this area has reached the point where Xiao Yusu can automatically increase the value of the treacherous power, which is like an immortal cultivator coming to a place where the aura is extremely strong, even if he does not need to cultivate, his cultivation can automatically increase.
"Ghost card owner!"
Li Ran felt the need to change his breath.
His current human breath has broken into it, and he may have attracted a hundred ghosts.
When the owner of the ghost card is opened, the aura on his body has changed, turning into the aura of a ghost.
When the funeral procession was far away, Feng Caiwei flew up slowly, guiding Li Ran towards the passage deep in the bamboo forest.
"Is there treasure in there?"
Li Ran got out of the bushes and followed the little butterfly.
Along with the eerie path of the bamboo forest, there are many strange monsters that appear from all around.
It felt like a mysterious city gate had opened to Li Ran to welcome visitors from all over the world.
It's just that most of these visitors are from the Netherworld and Demon Clan's territory.
The road in the forest was dead and gloomy, as if there was a gloomy black mist shrouded in the depths of the end, the deeper he went, the wider Li Ran found that the road was wider, and in the dense fog, he could see the strange shadows around him walking forward together.
A three-tailed monkey, a muddy monster, a child with three figures stacked on top of each other, a headless man......
Li Ran wanted to see the appearance of the strange shadows around him, but he found that he could only see their outlines, and the concentration of the mist was far beyond his imagination.
The deeper you go, the more and more strange demons and monsters of all kinds, like rushing to a market, crowding the roads in the bamboo forest.
Walking on this gloomy road, Li Ran was like an old grandmother entering the Grand View Garden, and she was dazzled.
"With such a large scale of demons and monsters, isn't there a ghost town at the end of the road?"
The wider the road, the more shadows there are, and even the shadows at your feet are running shadows.
I don't know how long it took, but he couldn't hear any sound from the wedding funeral procession.
After passing through a large gray mist, the vision suddenly became clearer.
Li Ran raised his head and stared at the night sky with countless lights floating, his face full of disbelief.
"Am I in the secret realm again?"
You must know that before you get to this forest, the outside time is noon.
In front of me, it was night, and the lights in the sky lit up the night sky.
A red rope bridge appeared in front of him, and Li Ran and countless shadows came to the cliff in front of the red rope bridge, overlooking a red demon city on the opposite cliff.
The red rope bridge is 100 meters long, under the bridge is a thick fog filled with abyss, on the opposite side of the rope bridge, a red light filled with ancient city is built on the edge of the cliff, the rope bridge is connected between the buildings, the cliff edge is the red rope wooden plank road winding on the cliff, but whether it is the red rope plank road or the rope bridge will eventually lead to another red rope bridge, the end of the rope bridge is a red tile palace on a huge reef of optimus.
Li Ran looked at the red palace on the cliff of the optimus sky, his eyes narrowed slightly.
(The Red Mansion of the Demon King: Legend has it that if you wear your cherished things, you can exchange them for everything you want.) )
"What is the Demon Lord?" Li Ran said in a low voice.
At this time, a child's voice speaking in adults sounded under his feet: "The demon monarch is the king of the demon capital, I don't know this, and I dare to come to the demon capital?" ”
Li Ran looked down, and a one-eyed toad at his feet looked at Li Ran with disdain.
"Why is there a demon capital here?" Li Ran asked suspiciously, but for fear of being suspicious, he hurriedly explained: "The first time I came here, I was brought in by my friend, but now I am separated from my friend. ”
The toad spirit at his feet jumped onto Li Ran's shoulder, and looked at the mini nine-tailed demon fox on the other side of Li Ran's shoulder suspiciously, its eyes widened and it was slightly surprised: "You even have a nine-tailed demon fox, but you don't know the demon capital?" ”
Seeing that Li Ran was still dazed, the toad spirit said: "In order to restrain the intensification of the contradiction between the Netherworld and the Demon Realm, the two worlds have built a city where demons and monsters coexist at the junction, and the person in charge of this city is the Demon Monarch. ”
"The demons and monsters who come here can go to that palace to meet the demon king in exchange for what they want as long as they hand in their cherished treasures." The toad spirit pointed to the palace on the cliff of the Optimus Sea and said.
"Is the Demon Monarch Netherworld or the Demon Realm?" Li Ran asked curiously.
The toad spirit sat on Li Ran's shoulder, hugged his chest with his paws and said with a solemn expression: "Half demon and half ghost!" ”
Li Ran's brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.
I've heard of demigods, half-demons, half-demons, half-ghosts, but I've never heard of half-demons and half-ghosts.
"So is this a demon cheating, or is a ghost crossing the line?" Li Ran said with a smile.
"Hmph, the demon monarch is not allowed to blaspheme, put away your smiling face, if the demon monarch knows, your life will be in danger." The toad mirror glared at Li Ran, then jumped off his shoulder, jumped in front of the red rope bridge, and said to Li Ran: "For the sake of your newcomer, the first rule when you come to the demon capital must be incomplete." ”
After saying that, the toad spirit jumped towards the red rope bridge.
"Incomplete? What do you mean? ”
When Li Ran came to the Red Rope Bridge, he did not rush to cross the bridge, but looked at the demons and monsters who crossed the bridge.
He found that the monsters were more or less mutilated.
The three-armed Netherworld Shura with one arm in his hand, the centipede monster with asymmetrical legs on both sides, the bull's head with a broken horn, the horse face with one leg missing, and the fierce ghost and resentful spirit with one eye are everywhere here.
Li Ran remembered the toad essence just now, and he was also missing an eye.
"Do you need to be incomplete to cross the bridge?" Li Ran guessed in his heart.
"Red pupils, Yu Su, you go back first."
He took the two small points back into the summoning space and took out the magic knife himself.
"It seems that there must be something missing to cross this bridge."
He used a magic knife to cut off the palm of his left hand, then took the palm of his left hand with his right hand and stepped into the red rope bridge.
Limbs cut off with a magic knife do not lose vital signs and can last for five minutes.
If the severed limb is not assembled within five minutes, it will quickly lose its vital signs.
Like most demons and goblins, he walked across the Red Rope Bridge with his palm.
The butterfly slowly flapped its wings on the back of his hand and continued to fly forward with him.
Li Ran felt that the difficulty of this treasure hunt was much higher than going to the Netherworld Dungeon.
After crossing the red rope bridge, he found that the demons and monsters had put back their mutilated limbs or eyeballs, and continued to walk forward as if they were fine.
He also took back the severed palm, and followed the large army of demons and monsters into this demon capital built on the cliff by the sea.
"Looks like it's forbidden to fly here."
Li Ran noticed that many flying demons and monsters had changed to walking when they arrived, and no one dared to use their skills indiscriminately.
Li Ran summoned Xiao Yusu out and let her absorb the dark aura in the demon capital to her heart's content.
In just such a while, Xiao Yusu's basic power value increased by another hundred, reaching 8900.
"Baba, there are so many fun things here, can I buy this balloon?"
Xiao Yusu ran to a stall on the side of the street, grabbed a balloon and said.
Li Ran looked at it and almost rolled his eyes directly.
Nima, what a balloon, it's clearly a floating human head.
Xiao Yu saw Li Ran's face pull down, stuck out his little tongue, and then ran to the stall in front of him and said, "Baba, can I eat ice cream?" ”
"No way!"
Li Ran pulled Yu Su to his side, and said fiercely: "Without my permission, you are not allowed to eat and run around, otherwise Baba will be angry." ”
"Okay, Baba, don't be angry." Xiao Yusu floated up and touched Li Ran's head.
Li Ran glanced at the ice cream on the stall and saw an ear in the jar of ice cream that had not completely melted.
"Baba, shall we go to that palace too?" Yu Su asked.
"Hmm." Li Ran nodded.
Feng Caiwei Butterfly slowly flew up, guiding Li Ran forward in front.
Look at the direction of the butterfly's flight is the palace on the sea cliff.
Come to the red rope plank road on the cliff, follow the little butterfly on the undulating sea cliff plank road, overlooking the sound of the waves hitting the reef below, but you can't see the waves below, you can only see the thick gray fog.
Looking up at the night sky, the night sky is unusually clear, which is very strange.
Walking on the red rope plank road, Li Ran noticed that many demons and monsters would hold a brocade box in their hands, which was delicate and beautiful, and there would be a big gift flower tied to it.
"Little Butterfly, Little Butterfly, the treasure won't be in that palace." Li Ran shouted in his heart.
He didn't want to see the half-demon, half-demon demon king, he just wanted to quickly find the treasure and leave this ghost place.
But the little butterfly guided Li Ran to a pillar of optimus sea cliffs, and when he looked up, he could see another rope bridge connecting the cliff and the palace.
"Is there a rule on that rope bridge?"
I was really afraid of something, and after walking for a long time, I finally came to the rope bridge leading to the palace, and Li Ran found that the demons and monsters all walked onto the bridge in a strange posture.
It is a twisted posture of crawling on the ground with hands and feet, especially the hands and feet, which have to be completely turned and twisted, and people can't do it at all.
"Baba, are we going to climb over like this?"
Li Ran looked down at Xiao Yusu, leaning on her back, crawling on all fours on the ground, her head twisted three hundred and sixty degrees.
"It's a pity that you can't get by." Li Ran was so surprised that his jaw almost hit the ground.
Xiao Yusu got up and returned to his normal appearance, poked his two little fingers aggrievedly on his little face and said, "But people want to go over and have fun." ”
"Where did you get the promiscuous guy!"
Suddenly, a sharp sound came, and the bat spirit crawling on the bridge was dragged up by a mysterious force, and was thrown into the dense fog under the bridge before the bat spirit shouted for help, and then, there was a terrible scream from the thick fog.
All the demons and monsters stared at the dense fog below with palpitations on their faces, and they could vaguely see a hideous and lengthy terrifying shadow flashing in the thick fog.
"It's no fun, the old man can't get by."
Li Ran noticed that by the bridge, the one-eyed toad spirit who had talked to him earlier was shaking his head and lying on a stone.
"What is this level?" Li Ran asked curiously.
When the toad spirit saw that it was Li Ran, he was very surprised, he was able to pass the first level, and there was nothing missing from head to toe.
The one-eyed toad spirit jumped onto Li Ran's shoulder, pointed to the top of the red rope bridge and said, "Do you see the man in black hanging?" ”
Li Ran followed the prestige, and then noticed that there was a man in black hanging fifty meters away from the red rope bridge, the limbs of the man in black were very strange, as if they were made of rotten wood, and there was a devil's face on his head.
Seeing this scene, Li Ran suddenly realized.
"To cross this rope bridge, you need to completely copy the movements of the man in black, even if the movement and posture are wrong, it will not be considered to pass, and if you are found to be thrown into the sea to feed the terrible monsters." The one-eyed toad spirit said.
"No wonder there are fewer people crossing the bridge here." Li Ran said.
"That's for sure, the man in black has a humanoid structure, many demons and monsters here don't have a human form, and they can't complete that set of actions at all, not to mention the twisted movements of anti-human crawling, a body structure like mine, it's impossible to kill it." The toad spirit shook his head with regret on his face and said, "It seems that I won't see the demon monarch this time." ”
"Will the movements of the man in black change?" Li Ran asked.
"Three hours change, if you have time to wait, just wait, maybe the next move of the man in black is something we can do." Toad Essence said.
Li Ran understood, no wonder there were so many demons and monsters gathered here.
There are very few who can pass the red rope bridge, and they are not without intelligence, and they don't try the actions they know they can't do, but there are still some who are willing to challenge, thinking that they can do it, but they are determined to be unsuccessful, and are thrown off the cliff by the mysterious power to feed the monsters.
This level is not like the rope bridge in the first level, incomplete body rules For many demons and monsters, some tricks and witchcraft can easily separate the body, cut off hands and feet, and pick out eyes or something, which is not difficult for them at all.
Of course, some ruthless demons and monsters are really willing to sacrifice their limbs in order to see the demon king, without a magic method.
And the rope bridge in this second level makes it difficult for many animal monsters to make twisted and reversed crawling actions.
There are some soft body monsters with strange limbs, and it is very easy to pass this level.
Although Xiao Yusu can pass, Li Ran can't.
However, Li Ran felt that this level would not be difficult for him.
He stared, quietly took out the [String Puppet] from the storage space, and immediately, shot a shadowless divine needle towards the black-clothed man above the rope bridge.
Hitting the target at a distance of fifty meters is not at all difficult for Li Ranyan now, even if it is a flying fly thousands of meters away, the shadowless divine needle he ejects can also hit with incomparable accuracy, so that it can truly penetrate the yang in a thousand steps!
The Shadowless Divine Needle landed precisely on the back of the black-clothed man in the sky.
Then, Li Ran took out the puppet and fiddled with it.
"Wow!!"
The demons let out a cry of surprise, and they noticed that the movements of the men in black in the sky began to change.
