Chapter 19: Our Lady of the Devil
Perhaps infected by the smile of survival, the black-robed monk nodded and made an expression of 'I am willing to cooperate with anything'.
Cheng Sheng said: "What is your name?" ”
"Boss Tong."
The black-robed monk brother blurted out.
But when he saw the displeasure on Chenghuo's face, he immediately changed his words: "That.... My original name was Tong Ergou, and because I was the boss of the Flying Sand Gang, everyone generally called me Tong Boss. ”
"Ergou, right?" Cheng Huo nodded.
He glanced at the crowd of mortals in shackles and shackles, and said, "Where are you going with these people?" ”
Tong Ergou didn't think twice: "Go to the ghost mother city." ”
As he spoke, he also glanced at the mortals in the convoy: "These people are all slaves who are going to be sent to the Ghost Mother City. ”
Slave traders....
Once you understand the situation, you won't have to say anything more.
He stretched out his right hand to Tong Ergou and clenched it into a fist.
The latter realized that something was wrong, and instinctively wanted to turn and flee, only to feel a huge force coming at him from all directions.
'Click'!
After a soft sound, Tong Ergou's head tilted, and he stopped breathing on the spot.
Seeing that Tong Ergou was crushed to death in an instant, all the mortal slaves showed a look of horror.
They lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with Chengsheng.
Seeing this, Cheng Huo smiled kindly: "Don't be afraid, I'm really not an evil demon. ”
The crowd bowed their heads and remained silent.
Cheng Sheng was helpless, and said: "If any of you want to leave, you can go to Tong Boss to find the key to the shackles." ”
No one dared to move.
In fact, these mortal slaves are not willing to leave the team, but it is understandable:
In addition to immortal cultivators in this world, there are also all kinds of monsters and ghosts in the wild.
For example, the evil demons who exude a black evil aura all over their bodies, the 'immortals' who come out of the white mist, and the villagers who mutate into monsters, etc.
It is precisely because of this that mortals can only cross the barren mountains and mountains alive under the escort of immortal cultivators.
Since the mortal slaves in front of them can't go back to their respective homes....
With this in mind, Cheng Sheng pointed to a tall and seemingly best-looking slave in the crowd and said, "What's your name?" ”
The tall slave stepped forward and said in a respectful tone, "Yuan Hu." ”
"Yuan Hu, right?" Cheng Huo said: "Have you been to the Ghost Mother City before?" ”
Yuan Hu had a strange expression: "I've been there, I've been here for a while." ”
Cheng Huo continued: "Then let me ask you, if I pretend to be Tong Boss with you, and the one in the black robe, and then take the rest of the people into the Ghost Mother City, impersonating the gang of the Flying Sand Gang, is it possible that someone will find out about this operation?" ”
"This...."Yuan Hu was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "It should be, it won't be discovered!" ”
As he spoke, he added, "Because as far as I know, there are only two people in the Flying Sand Gang, Tong Boss and the black-robed monk. ”
Two people in a gang?
Listening to his answer, a look of doubt flashed in Chengsheng's eyes.
Seeing this, Yuan Hu hurriedly said: "I only found out about listening to Boss Tong and the two of them chatting on the road." ”
Cheng Sheng nodded, no longer dwelling on this: "Then let's go!" ”
After that, he took the storage bag around the waist of the black-robed monk and Tong Ergou, and changed into the black robe worn by the black-robed monk.
Yuan Hu untied his shackles and shackles and changed into Tong Laoda's gray robe.
The group continued to walk up the official road until dusk, and then arrived outside the south gate of the ghost mother city.
Before entering the city, far away, Chengsheng saw a notice posted on the south city gate.
The bulletin reads.
[Notice: There are evil demons in the border of Xingzhou, spitting out people's words, extremely dangerous, all gangs and factions need to be cautious! 】
Demon?
Seeing this announcement, Chengsheng's heart sank, and he immediately thought of the iron bull that he hadn't seen for more than a year.
Could it be him?
Thinking like this, Cheng Sheng looked at Yuan Hu on the side again: "So, the Ghost Mother City is within the boundaries of Xingzhou?" ”
"Hmm."
Seeing Chengsheng staring at the notice in a daze, Yuan Hu couldn't help but think of Chenghuo's appearance when he was shrouded in 'black evil qi'.
He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart: "In addition to the Ghost Mother City, Xingzhou also includes more than a dozen large and small sects such as Xuantian Sect, and as for villages and towns, there are even more. ”
At the entrance of the city gate of the ghost mother city, there are guards checking the passers-by.
But maybe it's because of the recognition of the Flying Sand Gang wagon, or maybe it's because of the large group of mortal slaves that follow behind the wagon.
The guards of the Ghost Mother City just rushed to live, Yuan Hu and the others nodded, and directly let everyone enter the Ghost Mother City.
Cars and horses are strictly forbidden to pass in the ghost mother city.
After parking the carriage and walking into the city, Cheng Huo and the others had not gone far when they heard a burst of shouting from the street not far away.
The voice shouted: "Ghost mother, idlers evacuate!" ”
As soon as the words were finished, I saw the pedestrians on the street consciously falling on both sides of the street and kneeling on the ground.
This naturally includes Cheng Sheng, Yuan Hu and others.
"The ghost mother refers to the Devil Mother."
Seeing that Cheng Huo was puzzled, Yuan Hu on the side hurriedly explained: "The Holy Mother of the Devil is the city lord of the Ghost Mother City, and all the families in the city are under her control. ”
Cheng Sheng lowered his voice and said, "Is there any meaning for the name 'Our Lady of the Devil'?" It sounds a little weird. ”
"I don't know."
Yuan Hu also lowered his voice and said: "In addition, it is said that the Holy Mother of the Devil doesn't like others to talk about her behind her back, so my lord, be careful!" ”
"Well, let's not talk about it."
Cheng Huo nodded in understanding.
While the two were talking, they saw a chariot surrounded by more than a dozen mortal slaves slowly approaching from the street in the distance.
On the chariot, a girl wearing translucent white tulle, with a slender figure and an otherworldly temperament, was lying on a soft seat.
This girl was born extremely beautiful.
In addition, the clothes she was wearing couldn't cover her graceful figure at all, so Chengsheng couldn't help but look at her twice.
In fact, it is not only one person who is attracted by the beauty of the Devil Lady.
At this moment, the eyes of the mortals and monks, all men, who were kneeling on both sides of the street, were attracted by the chariot of the Virgin.
Since everyone is like this....
After observing the reactions of the people around him out of the corner of his eye, he no longer had any scruples, and simply raised his head boldly to admire the beauty of the Virgin.
But at this moment....
The Devil Virgin, who originally had an extraordinary temperament and was so perfect in appearance and posture that it was almost impeccable, inexplicably turned into an inverted triangle monster that was bloated and stitched together by countless flesh and blood.
On the surface of the monster's body, you can even see the marks left by the stitches that passed through its skin.
Under the scarred epidermis, there are dense thick blood vessels, like evil spirits coming out of hell.
This monster just lay on the chariot, doing nothing, and exuded a terrifying aura all over its body.
Chengsheng just knelt on the ground and looked at it, and an indescribable sense of oppression surged out of his heart.
Sweat oozed from his forehead, and he showed a frightened expression, only to feel that his whole body was going to suffocate to death from this sense of oppression.
And just when Chengsheng felt almost out of breath, the monster on the chariot turned back to the appearance of a girl with an extraordinary temperament and an unbelievably beautiful temperament in an instant.
At this moment, if you look at each other directly, the terrifying sense of oppression will disappear without a trace.
Survival no longer feels suffocated.
