Chapter 264: The Old Man

The guidance of the sealing order in his hand is getting stronger and stronger.

Chen Jiu's face did not change and walked towards the depths where the ghosts gathered, the ghosts on both sides looked extremely hideous and terrifying under the illumination of the sun, moon and stars, and even some ghosts gradually showed some signs of awakening, as if they were about to wake up from that confused and wooden situation.

"Is this the trouble of sealing the Demon Tomb?" Chen Jiu's eyes froze, looking at these ghosts thoughtfully.

When he entered the Sealed Demon Mound, he saw many terrifying and powerful ghosts along the way, but from what he saw, those ghosts were all in a powerful seal, and they could not break free from the seal in the short term.

Although these ghosts in front of them are not powerful, they are superior in number.

And quantitative change will cause qualitative change, and it is difficult to say whether the ghost here will cause a terrifying chain reaction if there is a problem.

If the task of himself and others is to solve the problems here, then there is a great possibility that it has something to do with the large number of ghosts in this space.

Suddenly, as if Chen Jiu had all the senses, his feet sped up, ignoring the people behind him who walked quickly towards the portal.

In front of the portal, there stood a figure standing quietly, wearing a simple black gilt robe, and the cloak obscured his face, making it impossible to see what he looked like under the cloak.

However, if you look closely, you can see that his robe is very torn, and there are many tears on the surface, and it is covered with a thick layer of dust.

The figure seemed to be struggling to recover his body, and almost every second that passed, his parched body would recover somewhat.

Chen Jiu's arrival did not make this figure fluctuate much, he just took a step forward slowly.

"Finally someone is coming."

The black shadow slowly took off the cloak that covered his face, revealing his face.

It was an extremely old face, withered and emaciated, the whole cheek was like a thin layer of skin attached to it, and the whole body was like an old man in the last years.

Chen Jiu's eyes froze, and he looked at the old man in front of him carefully, until he saw the two embroidered small characters on the old man's robe, and his expression moved.

"Are you from the City God Temple?"

The old figure nodded slowly, to be honest, if it weren't for Chen Jiu's eyesight being good enough, he wouldn't have seen the old man's movement at all.

However, according to Ye Qingxuan, the Demon Sealing Cave has been closed for hundreds of years, and no one has entered at all during this period.

Unless the other party has entered the Demon Sealing Cave hundreds of years ago, he has not come out.

"But how is that possible?" Chen Jiu couldn't help but be a little surprised by his bold conjecture.

How can there be a person who lives for a hundred years without eating or drinking, not to mention that people can't do it, even superhuman people can't do it.

For example, now, even if his physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, in such an environment, he can only live for a month at most.

After a month, he would starve to death because of the weakening of his physical functions.

After hearing Chen Jiu's words, the old man paused, glanced at it slowly, and did not directly answer Chen Jiu's question, but looked at the Demon Sealing Order in Chen Jiu's hand, and only after a while did he speak with some difficulty: "Isn't there anyone else in the City God Temple?" ”

When Chen Jiu heard this, he shook his head, "There are no other City God's people in the City God Temple, and even me, I am not a person in the City God Temple. ”

The city god in Haicheng didn't know for some reason, he didn't show up when he greeted Xiangrui, and he didn't even show up until Chen Jiu and they entered the Demon Sealing Cave, but I think it was also dragged by the group of disciples who claimed to be the Three Holy Sects, and finally this situation appeared.

After all, the other party has been preparing for so many years, and it is impossible not to take the city god in Haicheng into account.

"It seems that you are not from the City God Temple, but why do you have a demon sealing order?" The old man pondered for a moment, his eyes looked deeply at Chen Jiu, and a dangerous aura emanated from his body.

Chen Jiu shook his head and explained, "My Demon Sealing Order comes from some special places, I can't explain the specific reason to you, as for the City God's people you said, they should be held back by some reason, so there is no way to come here, but I have the same purpose as them, and they all came here to solve the problem of sealing the Demon Tomb." ”

At this point he is not lying.

If the other party is really an old monster who has lived in the Demon Sealing Cave for hundreds of years, his own concealment will only lead things in an unpredictable direction.

"You're here to solve the problem of sealing the mound?" The old man glanced at Chen Jiu deeply. "Then you can just hand over the demon sealing order to me, and then you can leave."

He seemed to have some disbelief in Chen Jiu's words.

is ready to directly ask for the magic sealing order in Chen Jiu's hand.

With that, he slowly stretched out his hand, and a vague traction came, as if he wanted to take away the demon sealing order in Chen Jiu's hand.

"Why do you want to rob me directly when you see that I'm not from the City God Temple?" Chen Jiu sneered and tightened his grip on the Demon Sealing Order in his hand.

No matter who the other party was, or the previous generation of Chenghuang, it was impossible for him to easily put such an important thing in the hands of another person.

"First of all, this thing is mine, and I'm not a city god, so there is no need to obey your words, and secondly, you are sneakily hiding in the Sealed Demon Tomb, who knows if you are in league with these ghosts."

The old man silently withdrew his palm, and he could see that Chen Jiu in front of him did not look like a good talker.

And in the distance, there are more Taoist figures walking this way.

"Those are your accomplices?" The old man asked slowly, but there was some coldness in his tone.

Chen Jiu didn't rush to answer his question, but looked at this huge portal curiously, an old man who didn't know how long he had lived, and a portal that didn't know where it led, this combination was really more interesting than the quest itself.

"Why don't you tell me where this portal leads, or how I should use the token in my hand?" Chen Jiu smiled, "In this way, I will solve my problem, and it will not bother you, and you can continue to sleep here for a long time, why not?" ”

The old man shook his head and said indifferently: "You are not a city god, you are just a commoner with better luck, why do you dare to disobey me?" ”
