Chapter 652: Underground Dark City
The results of Deacon Li's report made Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao stunned for a moment.
"Yan'er was captured in a ruined manor?"
"I wasn't even caught in the Shadow Palace, what did the Duanmu family want to do?"
The two looked at each other suspiciously, and hurriedly got up and left the secret room and rushed to Heiyun Lane.
Deacon Li originally wanted to send a team of spies to protect the two of them, but Ji Tianxing refused.
"Most of the secret agents of the Cloud Hidden Pavilion are the strength of the Yuan Dan Realm, and they can't help at all.
Deacon Lee, all you need to do is send an agent to guide us. ”
Since Ji Tianxing had spoken, Deacon Li of course did so, and sent a shrewd and neat young spy to lead the way for Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao.
The three of them left the Cloud Hidden Pavilion branch and rushed to Black Cloud Lane as fast as they could.
Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at Black Cloud Alley.
When Ji Tianxing saw the situation in the alley clearly, he only felt incredible.
It is a dirty, old alley, lined with low mud houses and wooden sheds, and the ground is potholed and covered with muddy muddy water.
Walking in the alley, Ji Tianxing successively saw more than a dozen ragged warriors, unkempt and unkempt in the shack on the side of the road, under the eaves.
There were also a few warriors in tattered armor, who came out of the depths of the alley, limping through the muddy water with staggered steps.
Before the people got closer, there was a smell of alcohol in the nose, which was eye-catching, and it was obviously a few drunks.
Ji Tianxing couldn't believe that there were such dirty and bad streets and alleys in the prosperous city of Zhongzhou.
If Yun Yao hadn't told him that the depths of Black Cloud Alley were the entrance to the underground city, he really doubted that he had entered the slums.
The three of them walked through the alley in a low-key and calm manner, walked thousands of meters away, and came to the end of the Black Cloud Alley.
In front of him was a low, old mansion, with a dilapidated gate stained with dark red blood.
Two large red lanterns hung in the doorway, and the lights were dim.
Ji Tianxing walked into the courtyard, turned the rockery and pool in the courtyard, and came to the dimly lit hall.
An old man in a black robe with a rickety body and white hair appeared silently behind the three of them.
"Young man, this is not the place for you. ”
A low, hoarse voice sounded, containing an eerie ghostly aura that sent chills down the back.
Ji Tianxing turned his head and couldn't help frowning when he saw the appearance of the black-robed old man clearly.
The black-robed old man was hunched over his waist, his pale and bloodless face was missing an eye, there were several hideous sword wounds, and his ears were bare, as if they had been cut off.
Such a clumsy, shriveled old man with skin as dry as tree bark, and a terrifying face, looked like a dried corpse crawling out of a grave.
But Yun Yao told Ji Tianxing that this black-robed old man was the legendary ghost servant, one of the gatekeepers of the underground dark city.
No one knows the strength realm of the ghost servant, and he only has an eerie ghost aura all over his body, which seems unfathomable.
However, even the sixth- and seventh-level powerhouses of the Tianyuan Realm would never dare to make a mistake in front of the ghost servants.
"Senior, we have something to enter the dark city, please be accommodating. ”
Ji Tianxing bowed to the ghost servant, and after explaining his intentions, he handed over three spirit stones.
The ghost servant's hollow eyes glanced at Ji Tianxing, and grinned at his big mouth with sparse teeth.
"Hehe, the little guy knows each other very well. ”
He stretched out his hand that was as dry as a chicken's claw, and took the three spirit stones and put them into the spatial ring.
Then, he took Ji Tianxing and the three of them out of the hall and into a dark secret room.
On the ground of the secret room, there is a formation with extremely complex and mysterious patterns.
When the ghost servant opened the formation, an underground passage appeared on the ground.
The entrance to the cave was pitch black, and there was a cool breeze braving, apparently leading to the underground city.
Ji Tianxing, Yun Yao, and the young spy entered the underground passage in turn, and walked down the dark and cold passage to the underground.
The passage winds and turns, and I don't know how far it extends underground.
It wasn't until an hour later, when a bridge appeared in front of the passage, that there was some light around.
Ji Tian walked to the dark stone bridge and saw the surrounding scene clearly, and couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
At the foot of the bridge is a black arch bridge hundreds of meters long, and under the bridge is a hundred-meter-wide river, in which the turbulent black water rushes endlessly, making a rumbling sound of water.
Above the head is a dome thousands of meters high, which is the rock layer under the city of Zhongzhou.
In the distance, there was an empty, dark sky, suspended by a dark red moon, sprinkling a faint reddish light.
The distant land was desolate, with collapsed walls, attics, and halls, crumbling houses, and huge statues half-hidden in the earth......
The various scenes you can see show how glorious this abandoned ancient city once was.
Ji Tianxing stood on the arch bridge and watched for a while, then crossed the stone bridge and walked to the depths of the underground dark city under the leadership of the young secret agent.
Along the way, he saw ruined palaces and pavilions in all directions, and there were constantly mysterious warriors coming in and out.
Most of them act alone, wearing voluminous robes and cloaks that cover their faces.
Even if you don't have a cloak, you will wear a mask.
Everyone is in a hurry, and they never talk to strangers.
And in those ruined and dilapidated buildings, there are lights and lights, and there are many places for people to trade.
While hurrying, Yun Yao said to Ji Tianxing with a spiritual sense transmission: "Tianxing, although the underground dark city is eerie and terrifying, full of darkness and violent killing.
But there are strong people of all races gathered here, which can be described as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, so you should be cautious here.
Although it is full of a large number of evil and evil things that are strictly forbidden to circulate, it also gathers many rare and rare treasures, and some rare treasures often appear.
The powerhouses of the major forces in Zhongzhou City will also change their disguises and quietly come here to search for treasures, or buy rare materials, etc......"
On the way, Yun Yao gave Ji Tianxing a detailed introduction to the situation in the underground city.
Ji Tianxing kept her words in mind, thinking that it might be useful in the future.
Half an hour later, the young agent led the two to the outside of an old and dilapidated manor.
Covering an area of two thousand meters, this manor was supposed to be a magnificent and prestigious mansion.
However, the great war in antiquity destroyed half of the mansion.
Many of the houses and palaces had collapsed, turning the ground full of dirt and rubble, revealing fragments of ruins.
The ground was paved with black stone slabs, cracked into dense ravines, and many piles of rubble were scattered.
The whole manor was silent, dark and lightless, without the slightest light, like a lifeless dead place.
But the young spy said very firmly: "Miss, Ji Gongzi, we have investigated and Yan'er was arrested here. ”
