Chapter 267: The Desert Is Weird

The climate of the border pass is boring and barren, and from time to time, a touch of yellow sand will be rolled up, and under the action of the breeze, it will rise and move under the influence of Xuan'er.

And at the border gates, the so-called entertainment is even rarer.

Even the city closest to the border gate is not as lively as an ordinary prefecture-level city, and it seems much more deserted.

At this time, the border pass is even more solemn.

The soldiers were armed with weapons and stood aside with serious faces, not allowing outsiders to approach.

From time to time, the people passing by looked up, and then moved their eyes to other places, as if they had not seen them, for fear of taking more looks, and they were arrested.

In front of the soldier, at this moment, there was a corpse lying on the ground.

Above the corpse, wrapped in a white cloth, only a rough outline can be seen.

Although wrapped in a white cloth, the impact of so many corpses on the ground is also extremely strong.

One of the corpses had an uncovered arm that peeked out from the white cloth.

The whole arm is as dry as wood, and if you look closely, you will find that there is only a layer of skin wrapped around it, which looks terrifying.

The palm of the hand is in the shape of a chicken claw, and the bones on it protrude, as if he had suffered great pain before his death.

The soldiers who were waiting for the battle suddenly moved out of the way.

Two young men walked through the middle of the soldiers and came to the corpse.

One of the young men, dressed in armor, had a flask hanging from his waist with the word "Lie" written on it.

The other young man, holding a woman in black with a forbidden beauty in one hand, and the other hand was free, and the ring on his middle finger shone with a dark light, which was extremely conspicuous.

"How long does it take to happen?" Zhou An lifted a white cloth, looked at the charred and withered corpse under the white cloth, and frowned.

As soon as he arrived at the border pass, the eldest prince hurriedly came over and told him everything.

Something happened at the border, but it's still a big deal.

Every day, people die mysteriously, and the appearance of death is extremely terrifying, as if the blood has been sucked alive.

This is the border pass, and it is also within the reach of the Zhenwei Division.

After something happened, the eldest prince immediately went to check it himself, but after checking for a long time, he still didn't get anything.

Subsequently, the eldest prince reported the matter to the capital.

The capital has spoken, and the town commander will be sent to come immediately.

But it takes about ten days to get from the nearest city, and this kind of time is extremely anxious for the eldest prince.

Because every day, a people will die, and every death of a people will plunge him into pain.

Guarding the border, but unable to protect the people, the eldest prince is worried a lot every day.

And today, Zhou An arrived, making the eldest prince come to the spirit.

If you want to say that the most legendary young generation in the Great Chu Kingdom today, it must be Zhou An.

The eldest prince didn't pay attention to any face, so he came to Zhou An for help as soon as possible.

If it can be solved, it can be much sooner and save many people from worrying about their lives.

So the face is really not important to the eldest prince.

"About three days ago, I couldn't find any clues, and I tried a lot of ways, but I couldn't do anything."

The eldest prince clenched the wine jug on his waist, and the green tendon in his right hand appeared: "I have used a lot of methods, and even every household strictly guards it, but every next day, there will be strange deaths of people." ”

Speaking of this, the worry in the eyes of the eldest prince deepened.

This will happen even if you are guarding day and night, or even looking at the other side.

He still remembers that he personally went to one of the people's houses to watch them sleep.

But he watched, watching this people, die before his eyes, and he couldn't even save them.

"So weird?" Zhou An touched his chin and continued to inspect the corpse: "Have you considered the possibility of a nightmare?" ”

Nightmare, Zhou An once encountered, this thing is the most outrageous, killing people through dreams.

If the death of the people is extremely bizarre, it is somewhat similar to this nightmare.

The eldest prince smiled bitterly: "I've tried the dream incense, it's not a nightmare, and the people haven't dreamed at all." ”

Zhou An nodded and continued to think.

At the beginning, when dealing with nightmares, I also used dream incense.

Now it seems that nightmares can indeed be ruled out.

"Zhou An, you are the Si Jing of Huaixi Jing, I thought, you should be in charge of this business, maybe there is a way."

The eldest prince held the flask at his waist and loosened it slightly.

During this period of time, the mental state has finally eased a little.

"I'll try." Zhou An nodded.

The eldest prince is a smart man, he must have thought of countless ways, but none of them worked.

Therefore, the conventional investigation method is actually useless, because the eldest prince has already used it once.

But Zhou An is different, he uses not conventional means.

Thinking of this, Zhou An raised his right hand, activated the Qi in his body, and pointed slightly towards the void in front of him.

The next moment, Qi surged out, and the Qi in mid-air gradually condensed, and finally turned into a golden gossip, which appeared in front of him.

After the golden gossip appeared, Zhou An immediately used the golden gossip as a guide and began to calculate the root cause of the matter according to the clues provided by the eldest prince.

In mid-air, the golden gossip continued to rotate, and the silk threads that could not be seen by others spread out along the golden gossip and connected to the corpses on the ground.

Subsequently, the golden gossip rotated faster, and the mysterious information continued to enter Zhou An's mind through the golden gossip.

After a long while, Zhou An waved his hand and completely dispersed the golden gossip in front of him.

"Weird." Zhou An said two words lightly.

When the eldest prince heard this, he asked eagerly: "What kind of weirdness is it, can there be clues now?" ”

Zhou An shook his head: "There is no clue, I just know that it is weird." ”

Just now, the golden gossip conveyed a message telling him that this was done strangely.

But more clues are gone, including the source of the weirdness, all of which are unknown.

"This weirdness, why haven't I even seen it?" Zhou An's brows furrowed, and he slowly rubbed the gold ring.

Now he has a reserve of knowledge that is no longer comparable to what he was at the beginning.

He is the Si Jing of Huaixi Jing, and the current knowledge is enough to match the position of Si Jing now.

There are many types of weirdness, Zhou An has long known it, but this kind of weirdness that can't be found has never been seen.

"New variety, or something else?" Zhou Anxin thought.

On the eldest prince's side, looking at Zhou An, he couldn't find clues, and the sorrow in his eyes resurfaced again.

He knew in his heart that if even Zhou An didn't understand, this matter would be absolutely tricky.

At this moment, Zhou An turned his head and looked at the eldest prince.

"Your Highness, I'll stay here for a day to see if any weirdness reappears, and see if I can find clues." Zhou An said.

The golden gossip can't be deduced, Zhou An guesses that it has something to do with the fact that there are too few clues today, and if you can take a look at it on the spot, maybe there will be new gains.

The eldest prince was originally a little worried, but after hearing Zhou An say this, his eyes immediately lit up.

"It's feasible, if you have Zhou An, you will definitely be able to solve it!"

With Zhou An's reply, the eldest prince felt that his mood was like a roller coaster, good for a while and bad for a while.

"Let's go, let's go guard first." Zhou An said.

The eldest prince didn't say anything more, and immediately walked with Zhou An towards the city closest to the border pass......

……

Time passed gradually, and in the blink of an eye, it was already nighttime.

Huangsha Mansion is the place where Zhou An passed before he came, and it was named because of the yellow sand in the sky here.

At this time, it was already approaching dusk, and the sunset in the sky was like a red cloth, enveloping the yellow sand.

The people returned to their homes, and at the end of the day's work, the smoke of the cooking rose from Nana.

Even if the yellow sand blows from time to time, the climate at the border is not very good, but the people here are still as usual, except for walking, there is more fear.

The horror comes from the recent murder case in Huangsha Mansion, which makes people panic, as if there is a mouse in their hearts.

Chang Da Niu is one of them.

Being in Huangsha Mansion, although facing a not good living environment, in fact, life is still very comfortable.

The vast majority of the people in Huangsha Mansion make a living by setting up stalls here, and even have a little money to spare.

Because in this environment, most of the people who can go abroad through the border are rich families.

Approaching the border gate, buy some border gadgets, and don't even care about the price, so that the people at the border pass have benefited a lot.

This has become the reason why they have been here, even the main reason.

But now, Chang Da Niu is a little worried, and when he walks home, he feels as if someone is always following him.

"Too many people have died lately."

Chang Daniu pushed open the door, looked at the dim room, lit the oil lamp, washed his face, and wiped the dust on his face.

The more it was at night, the heavier the dust became, and when he came back to wash his face, Chang Daniu even felt that he was lighter.

He was the only one in the whole house.

Now, Chang Daniu has reached the age of marriage, and yesterday he asked the matchmaker to talk about a woman, which is said to be a good family not far from the next door.

He already has some longing for the scene of marrying a wife, having two more big fat boys, and having a happy family.

"Let's make some food."

Chang Da Niu, who has no parents since he was a child, is very skilled in making a fire and cooking.

Like the rest of the house, the smoke of his house was slowly wafting up.

It's easy to eat, but Chang Da Niu also eats very comfortably.

After eating, Chang Da Niu stretched his waist and rested early.

He has to set up a stall tomorrow, he must keep his spirit intact, besides, a single man has no entertainment at the border, so it is better to rest early.

Lying on the bed, Chang Da Niu put his hand under the pillow, where there was a firewood knife.

Recently, there have been so many lives happening that he has to be careful.

Holding the firewood knife made him more comfortable.

In this way, Chang Daniu gradually fell asleep with a tired body......

After falling asleep, Chang Daniu was very quiet, only a slight snoring sounded in the room.

Outside the house, an old tree is facing Chang Daniu's room.

Above the old tree, there was a black crow with blood-red eyes.

The crow's mouth opened slightly, and a trace of blood that ordinary people could not see, was pulling away from Chang Da Niu's body in an extremely secret route.

The muscles on Chang Da Niu are slowly decreasing.

The crow stood on the pitch-black tree, its eyes bloodthirsty and tyrannical with inhumanity, as if it wanted to kill all living people.

The absorption of blood gases is accelerating.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and covered the crow.

The crow's absorption of blood gas slowed down, and after being caught by the big hand, it struggled frantically, and kept pecking with its beak.

But on this hand, a layer of golden light appeared, as if the holiness of the Buddha, people couldn't help but bow and worship.

A calm voice sounded in the dark street.

"I see, it's a bird, no wonder you haven't noticed."

Zhou An was covered with the golden light that cast his body, and in the golden light, he was like an ancient Buddha, and his smile was looming, adding a bit of mystery.

The hand strained slightly, and the crow immediately turned into a lump of flesh in his hand.

Due to the reason of casting his own body, it was not stuck in Zhou An's hands.

Zhou An shook his hand casually and shook off the meat puree, as if it had never been.

Next to him, there stood a bunch of soldiers, as well as the eldest prince who was leading the team.

The eldest prince was slightly stunned: "So that's the case, no wonder we didn't find out." ”

He knew that he had calculated everything, but he really didn't expect that it was a bird that did these things!

Who the would think that a bird can do things, or a crow that is too ordinary to be ordinary!

"Wait, Zhou An, isn't it weird, although this crow has a weird aura, it's not weird." The eldest prince asked.

He is also a person in the industry, although he guards the border all the year round, he has seen a lot of weird things.

What's more, the prince of the Great Chu State certainly knows more about these.

Zhou An looked at his right hand and said with a smile: "Of course it's weird, this crow is a weird means." ”

The eldest prince's brows furrowed slightly.

Zhou An continued: "The so-called weird people, caused by resentment, flowers and trees, heaven, earth, rivers and seas are all possible. ”

"Let's not talk about the rest for the time being, just talk about the weirdness that changes after the death of a person, if it is a person in the line, the strangeness will inherit the methods of the person in the line."

"For example, if the knife dies, the strange will make the knife kill."

The eldest prince listened with relish, and after listening to it, he suddenly became enlightened: "Before Wei Wei was born, he should have been proficient in this type of imperial beast." ”

"Hmm."

Zhou An nodded, and then turned the Qi in his body to the void.

The next moment, the void changed, and the golden gossip resurfaced.

Zhou An narrowed his eyes, this time, with new clues, he could make calculations again.

Thinking of this, the golden gossip began to rotate continuously, and only a moment later, silk threads emerged from the golden gossip and pointed in one direction.

"Found it." Zhou An pointed in one direction: "Follow me to see, what dares to make trouble here!" ”

The eldest prince nodded, and then took Zhou An and left quickly in the direction pointed by the golden gossip.

……

In a desert not far from Huangsha Province.

At this time, the night had completely fallen, and it was dark.

In the sky, a bright moon shone brightly, shining under the night sky.

The convolution of yellow sand casts a faint gray-yellow color over the night sky, making it look dull and dull.

Zhou An held the black jade, held the long knife in one hand, and slowly walked into the land of yellow sand.

Everything around, including the yellow sand in the sky, hung around Zhou An.

A layer of golden light wrapped around Zhou An's body, cutting off all the yellow sand.

Zhou An looked at the golden silk thread in front of him, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

At this moment, he stopped, looked at the yellow sand not far ahead, and narrowed his eyes.

"The land covered with yellow sand is the root of this trip." Zhou An slowly raised the long knife.

Behind him, the eldest prince and the others looked excited, and they all pulled out their weapons.

Finally, the curtain can come to an end on this matter, and the eldest prince feels that he is really depressed during this time, and now that he can solve it, it will be much easier.

The dark blue sword light appeared in the air, expanding in an instant, changing into a terrifying sword light.

After the sword appeared, it immediately fell in mid-air, turning into countless raindrop-sized sword lights, which fell fiercely on the yellow sand.

The yellow sand began to splash continuously, the ground began to settle, and deep pits slowly appeared in front of Zhou An's eyes.

When he saw the situation under the yellow sand, Zhou An's brows furrowed.

Beneath the yellow sand was a huge coffin, the lid of which had long since turned into decay and was in tatters.

This entire coffin is actually made of yellow sand condensation, Zhou An estimates that this thing is condensed by instinct after the strange formation.

And under the lid, there is a dried corpse.

The dried corpse was rotten and twisted, but it was still preserved after the ages.

In addition, next to the dried corpses, there are the corpses of various animals.

The carcasses of the animals were also as dry as wood, and the blood was long gone.

"It's him!"

At this moment, the eldest prince suddenly shouted out in surprise.

Zhou An was slightly stunned, then turned his head and asked, "Do you know?" ”

The eldest prince nodded, and his face gradually became solemn: "A miscellaneous person from the previous dynasty, a beast master." ”

"At the beginning, the army of the Great Chu State and the previous dynasty was fighting at the border pass, and this beast master brought us great trouble at that time."

"He is alone, harnessing a great number of beasts, and on the battlefield, bringing terrifying killings."

"It took a lot of effort to kill him, but I didn't expect it to become weird."

The more Zhou An listened, the more he felt that this time was not as simple as he thought.

Just when the two were communicating like this, the coffin made of yellow sand finally appeared abnormal.

The yellow sand coffin is like fire meets water, which is rapidly disappearing.

The speed of dissipation was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, the huge yellow sand coffin disappeared.

The emaciated dried corpse sat up in an instant, and an ancient and terrifying momentum continued to emerge on the dried corpse.

When this momentum appeared, the gaze of the dry corpse immediately swept towards Zhou An.

There was bloodthirstiness and coldness in that gaze, as if he wanted to destroy all living beings.

The yellow sand stopped suddenly, and the next moment, pieces of yellow sand condensed into the appearance of fierce beasts, and there were tens of thousands of them.

These beasts condensed by yellow sand, even those in the middle of the line, will find it shocking.

Zhou An let go of Heiyu's hand and brushed the blade of the long knife with his fingers, inch by inch, moving slowly.

As Zhou An brushed the long knife, behind Zhou An, the light of the Holy Spirit Demon Body condensed, and a ten-meter-tall giant appeared.

The giant also brushed the long knife and did the same movements as Zhou An.

"If it's dead, it's dead."

"Those who come back to life are not human beings after all."

Zhou An took a step forward, and the long knife dragged across the desert and splashed a patch of yellow sand.

"I'll give you a ride."

The dark blue sword light appeared, and under Zhou An's manipulation, it changed from erection to sweeping, with Zhou An as the center, like a lake that was stirred up by water waves, spreading rapidly.

In just an instant, the sword light came in the blink of an eye.

Everywhere they passed, the beasts formed by the condensation of the yellow sand turned to ashes in an instant.

The dried corpse on the ground jumped up from the yellow sand, and various parts of the body grew heads like beasts, wanting to bite Zhou An.

Zhou An took another step forward and stabbed straight away.

This knife enveloped all the yellow sand in the sky, and passed through the middle, and the dried corpse was divided into two.

The parts that were separated turned into countless ashes, and disappeared with the yellow sand in the sky.

"Solved?"

The eldest prince and those soldiers couldn't help but be on the spot when they saw Zhou An showing his might here.

They were ready to help, but now it seemed that there was no need to help.

Because Zhou An alone is worth all of them, only Zhou An is needed, and it is enough.

"It's not that simple."

Zhou An stuck the long knife on the yellow sand, looked at the void not far ahead, and said slowly.

The golden gossip continues.

More golden threads stretched out from the golden gossip and fell inch by inch into the yellow sand on the ground.

"It's just an introduction, maybe more of an appetizer." Zhou An said lightly.

As he finished saying this, the yellow sand in front of him changed.

Pieces of yellow sand collapsed in front of Zhou An, and the speed of collapse was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, one by one, strange condensed by yellow sand appeared in front of Zhou An.

Each one is weird, with an extremely strong momentum, which makes people desperate at a glance.

Zhou An narrowed his eyes, looked up and down, and said, "Something." ”

He looked at it roughly, and he couldn't see the end at all, so there was no need to count it at all.

"These, how could it be them!"

The eldest prince exclaimed again, and the liquor on his waist was almost gone.

Zhou An turned his head and said, "What?" ”

"These are those who died in the former dynasty!"

The eldest prince said uncertainly: "But at the beginning, the means to dissipate grievances have been made, how can the dead people of the former dynasty at the border pass be resurrected!" ”

When Zhou An heard this, he fell into deep thought.

He listened to the meaning of the eldest prince, but in fact, in his heart, he already had different ideas.

How was it resurrected?

It seems that this is a very complicated issue, but if you contact Zhou An's recent information, then it is not complicated.

"Perhaps, the more the cracks accumulate, and the dredging of the psychic space can't keep up with the speed."

Zhou Anxin thought: "This kind of large-scale strange situation has been caused. ”

"So...... Maybe the hunt will be advanced. ”

The hunt was originally to reduce the pressure of the psychic space, but now that the pressure has appeared, it is estimated that the hunt will come as promised, and it may not take more than three months.

"Now is not the time to think about that."

Zhou An said slowly: "Before the real weirdness appears, you leave this desert." ”

Really weird?

When the eldest prince and the others heard this, they all looked at each other.

Ahead, the weirdness that has no end in sight has all appeared.

But at this time, Zhou An suddenly said something really weird, which made them a little confused.

"What's really weird, isn't that count?" The eldest prince asked subconsciously.

Zhou An pointed to the yellow sand below and said: "This desert is weird. ”

The eldest prince bowed his head suddenly, and then his face became extremely ugly.

"Withdraw!"

The eldest prince did not hesitate, waved his hand very decisively, and withdrew from the desert with his soldiers.

If it is really as Zhou An said, then this is really not something they can play with.

The whole desert has become eerie and terrifying.

After the eldest prince and the others retreated, Zhou An turned his head.

Before he could speak, the black jade obediently entered the shadows and quickly disappeared.

Zhou An used the flying dragon body technique, like a swimming dragon, and came to the sky in an instant.

When you look down from above, you can see the truth of this desert and see it more clearly.

Zhou An looked around, his gaze solemn.

This desert is trembling rapidly in an irregular state.

Looking through Zhou An's perspective, he could see that in the middle of the desert, everything as far as the eye could see, the weirdness was gradually increasing.

At this time, those weird people condensed by the yellow sand suddenly raised their heads and looked at Zhou An with a cold gaze.

"Boom!"

There was a roar.

The yellow sand began to spin, flying away from the ground, and in front of Zhou An's eyes, it converged into a huge and terrifying weirdness.

100 meters tall, covered in yellow sand, and without facial features, Zhou An felt a terrifying and eerie feeling of being watched.

"Boom!"

Zhou An didn't say half a word of nonsense, because he didn't understand it, and he didn't bother to say it.

The long knife was stabbed out by Zhou An in an instant, and a crisp sound came out in mid-air, and countless dark cyan knife lights poured down with this knife.

The Holy Spirit Demon Body looked a little small in the face of this hundred-meter-high yellow sand, but for Zhou An, height did not mean strength.

The dark cyan knife light touched the yellow sand weirdly, and the yellow sand was weird and was cut in half in an instant.

But the next moment, this yellow sand was weird like invisible water, and the part that was cut off frantically rushed towards Zhou An, enveloping Zhou An in an instant.

Just in the blink of an eye, Zhou An's figure completely disappeared in front of him.

The eldest prince and others, far away from this desert, were observing from afar.

When the yellow sand appeared strangely, the terrifying aura made the eldest prince and those soldiers feel trembling.

Only then did they realize that the weirdness this time was by no means as simple as they imagined.

And Zhou An's knife brought vitality and hope.

But this hope disappeared without a trace as Zhou An was swallowed up.

The eldest prince's face was heavy, and he silently pulled out the weapon on his waist and drank the liquor: "Everyone, go with me." ”

Zhou An was gone, and was swallowed by the yellow sand weirdly, and the yellow sand weird was taking steps in the direction of the Huangsha Mansion.

As the guardian of the border pass, the eldest prince is not allowed to step into it strangely, even if there is a huge disparity between friend and foe.

The soldiers fell silent, and then, silently, took the wine from their waists and poured it down in a few sips.

As the wine was poured down, the flask marked with the word "Lie" was thrown to the ground by the soldiers, who silently drew their long knives and followed behind the great prince.

In their opinion, Zhou An was swept by the yellow sand, and there was more than one luck.

Well, now only they are left.

If they retreat again, there will be no retreat, because behind them is Huangsha Mansion.

The eldest prince casually pointed to a soldier: "You go back, inform Huangsha Mansion, evacuate the people, the farther away the better!" ”

The soldier was slightly stunned, and then arched his hand: "Yes!" ”

The military order is like a mountain, there is no love for children, and there is no so-called necessity to stay here.

As long as the military order is issued, even if it is to die, the order must be completed first.

Soon, the soldiers who received the order disappeared into the yellow sand.

The eldest prince took a deep breath, held his weapon, and led the soldiers towards the yellow sand in front of him.

The soldiers behind him also followed behind and did not look back......

……

The closer you get to the yellow sand, the deeper the sense of oppression.

At this time, the distance between the two sides is shrinking.

At this time, Zhou An still did not move, and the eldest prince believed that Zhou An was already more than lucky.

"At the beginning, I shouldn't have asked Zhou An to come, but now, my Great Chu Country has lost another pillar of talent."

The eldest prince was a little uncomfortable.

If it weren't for Zhou An, Zhou An would not have fallen into death, all this, the eldest prince believed, was all caused by him.

"That's it, it's also a good thing to die with Zhou An."

The eldest prince thought to himself: "If you can stop the weirdness, you can also give Huangsha Mansion a chance." ”

Thinking of this, the eldest prince has come to the strange distance of less than 100 meters in the yellow sand.

"Come on! Dog stuff! Your grandpa is here! ”

The eldest prince laughed and pointed at Huangsha weirdly: "If you want to cross Huangsha Mansion, you have to go over your grandfather's corpse!" ”

At this moment, the great prince of the Great Chu State showed the momentum of the border guard.

The soldiers did not speak, but they all expressed their attitude with their actions, and each of them held the weapon with a steady hand.

They are ready to die.

But who would have thought that the yellow sand stopped strangely, motionless like wood.

"What's the situation?" The eldest prince was slightly stunned.

It stands to reason that this shouldn't be right, because when you see a living person strangely, it's a fatal flutter.

It's impossible to stop, it's right to give them a chance to survive, it's not reliable.

In such thoughts, the doubts in the heart of the eldest prince have become more and more.

That's when the anomaly appeared.

At the strange body of Huang Sha, cracks suddenly appeared, and in the cracks, there was a flash of light.

This light, with a dark blue color, is especially conspicuous in the darkness.

In the hearts of the eldest prince and the soldiers, an outrageous idea suddenly appeared.

"Even if he was coerced by the yellow sand, Zhou An didn't die!"

The idea just appeared, and soon, it was confirmed.

A voice sounded leisurely in the darkness, and even the yellow sand in the sky could not suppress the sound.

"It's really hard to kill, but it's okay, I can kill." (End of chapter)
