Chapter 463: Fengdu Ghost City
The heavy ghost aura made Fang Heyu and He Xuru extremely uncomfortable, and the two of them quickly took a few more pills to resist, and then got into the cabin, although it had no effect, but at least it made them feel more comfortable from the senses.
The boatman still had his back to them, slowly propping the boat with the pole, and led them towards the center of the lake. Fang Heyu didn't try to talk to the boat supporter, everything here is so weird, since the other party doesn't speak, he also has the idea that more things are better than less.
After He Xuru was worried at the beginning, she had gradually relaxed, although the strong ghost aura made her extremely uncomfortable, but with her cultivation, she was still able to resist. However, she also calculated in her heart that this kind of rich ghost qi might not be able to withstand it if she was replaced by an ordinary immortal master, of course, Fang Heyu was not among them.
"Brother Yu, look, this boat seems to be made of ordinary wood, at most this kind of wood is rare......"
"Ru'er, you're still in the mood to pay attention to these, if you have the energy, you might as well think about what we will encounter, don't forget that this is a ghost realm......"
"People just wonder why this boat can walk safely on a weak lake?"
"It must be some kind of special wood......
Fang Heyu was also very strange, and asked Gong Ling, who said that he didn't know either, but everything in heaven and earth was strange, and it was not too unusual to have wood that could resist weak water toxicity.
After the initial worry, vigilance, and vigilance, the mood of several people slowly relaxed, because there was really no danger on this boat. The movements of the prickly bearer are like a machine, and even the range of movement is almost the same every time.
The ferry moved forward slowly, the sound of the water was endless, and the five of them gradually became sleepy because of the relaxation of their mood and the influence of the sound of the water for a long time, and He Xuru even fell asleep in Fang Heyu's arms.
Fang Heyu knew that in the sea, the golden villain trembled slightly, instantly dispelling his sleepiness, and then he smiled and said to the three girls of Zixin: "Three girls, if you are also sleepy, just sleep for a while, I will help you guard it." ”
The three girls of Zixin did feel sleepy because of the influence of the environment and the sound of water, but of course they would not sleep like He Xuru.
"Childe, let's hold on, and if something happens, we can take care of it. ”
"It's okay, you are a ghost, and my pill is not easy for you to take, by the way, will ghosts also be sleepy?"
Lan Lan smiled and said: "Strictly speaking, we can't be completely ghosts, at most, because of the special environment of the Seven Ghost Space, let us borrow our own corpse to return the soul, in fact, I have always thought that I am still a human being, and it is normal for me to be so sleepy if I am a human being." ”
Hearing this, Fang Heyu thought for a while and said, "Maybe I can bring you back to life, but I have to leave here first." ”
"Oh?" The eyes of the three girls lit up at the same time, and Zixin said with some excitement: "Childe, can you really bring us back to life?"
"Seventy percent sure, your cultivation is strong, you can recondense your soul in the corpse, and your corpse is affected by the ghost qi, not only is it not rotten, but it is more solid, I just need to inject a strong vitality into your body to expel the ghost qi, you can return the yang, of course, this process is still a little dangerous, and we will study it carefully when we leave here." ”
Lan Lanjiao smiled: "Childe, if you can let the slave family return to the yang, the slave family is willing to make you a cow and a horse, after so many years, this appearance of no one or a ghost really makes the slave family extremely painful......"
The corners of Fang Heyu's mouth twitched for a while, and said, "Miss Lan, how come I can't see any pain in you, it seems that every time you speak, you are smiling......
Zixin said: "This is Lan Lan's character, it's just that the pain in her heart is hidden, Childe, what Lan Lan said is what the slave family wants to say, if you can really be a new person, then let us be willing to do anything......"
"I don't have much for you to do, after all, you are also victims, let's talk about this after we leave here, now we have to work together to find a way to escape from this ghost realm. ”
The three girls chatted with Fang Heyu for a long time, and said some things about their back then, and Fang Heyu also briefly told them about their own situation, and in the end, the three girls couldn't bear the sleepiness, and they all fell asleep against the bulkhead.
Fang Heyu's spiritual power was extremely powerful, and although he was in this monotonous and boring environment, he still remained sober and vigilantly guarded everything around him.
The sound of the rushing water continued, I don't know how long it took, the sound of the water weakened, and then the hull of the ship shook slightly, Fang Heyu looked up, and through the gap in the cabin curtain, he saw the long-lost land.
"Ru'er, wake up......"
During this time, He Xuru was frightened and tired, Fang Heyu gave her a calming pill after she fell asleep, so that she fell asleep all the time, and the three daughters of Zixin had already woken up.
He Xuru slowly opened his eyes, and said sleepily, "Brother Yu, what's wrong?"
"It's time for us to get off the ship......"
The five of them got off the ferry, and then He Xuru subconsciously glanced at the boat supporter, and was shocked to find that in the black cloak, there was no person at all, but a skull.
"Ah......" He Xuru let out an exclamation, Fang Heyu hurriedly pulled her into his arms and said, "Ru'er, what's wrong?"
"That'...... That's ......"
Fang Heyu and Zixin didn't see all this, in their opinion, they had already disembarked anyway, and they would never have anything to do with this boatman, and it didn't matter if they looked at his appearance or not.
Whew...... , The ferry went offshore again and disappeared into the thick fog, He Xuru came to his senses and said, "That's not a person, it's a skeleton ......."
"What?" said the four.
"I saw his face, it's a skull......"
Fang Heyu and the others all felt numb in their scalps, this boat holder turned out to be a skeleton, and the five of them had been in close proximity on the same ferry for so long, although nothing happened, but it was also creepy to think about.
"Ahh......h
After all, He Xuru had also seen the world, so he quickly calmed down and said, "Brother Yu, if this is the center of the ghost domain, then it may be a ghost town, according to the legend of Huaxia Kingdom, will there be a Hades Hall or something?"
"It's really hard to say, but how can the legend of Huaxia come here?"
The shore here was still overgrown with artemisia, and of course the people did not fly forward, but still walked on foot, and soon they saw a majestic city through the grass.
The height of the city wall must be hundreds of zhang high, and the city gate is also extremely huge, Fang Heyu must have a height of thirty zhang by sight, and above the city gate is engraved four big characters - Fengdu Ghost City.
Seeing these four words, Fang Heyu was taken aback and said, "It's really Fengdu City......
Zixin frowned slightly and said: "Childe, look, there are people guarding the city gate, no, it should be said that it is a ghost, because everyone here is a ghost......"
The huge city gate was indeed guarded by more than a dozen soldiers, but of course no one entered or exited the city gate, and now it seemed that the people who wanted to enter the city were the five of them.
Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, Fang Heyu said: "Let's go, let's go into the city to have a look, since there is a boat to pick us up, I don't think those soldiers will stop us from entering the city." ”
Sure enough, when the five of them passed through the city gate, a dozen soldiers glanced at them a few times, but no one said anything to stop them, and the five entered the city in this way.
In Fengdu City, there are all kinds of buildings, if it is not full of strong ghost atmosphere, this is a big city scene at all.
Fang Heyu did not restrain the breath of a living person walking on the streets, and there were also many pedestrians on the streets of the city, and they were all ghosts. There are also shops on both sides of the street, selling all kinds of goods, including food, clothing, daily necessities, etc., which is almost like a city on earth.
"Brother Yu, why is this like this?"
"What should that look like?"
"You see there are still barbecue sellers, I don't know what kind of meat it is, can I eat it?"
"Hehe, let's find a place to stay first, at least find out the situation here first, and think about eating meat. ”
The five of them found an inn to live in and opened two rooms, one for Fang Heyu and He Xuru, and one for Zixin and the three daughters. After settling down, Fang Heyu summoned the three girls, and then said, "Ru'er, three girls, although this place is called Fengdu Ghost Town, it is not a real ghost town. ”
Zixin and the others were slightly surprised: "Why?"
"I just took a closer look on the street, although my field is not spread out too much, but I can still investigate the range of more than ten zhang nearby, I swept through the field, those people on the street, whether they are pedestrians or businessmen, are people, not ghosts. ”
"Brother Yu, how can you be so sure?"
"Because they all have the breath of life on their bodies, although they are covered by the ghost qi, they still can't escape the detection of the power of my realm. ”
"How is it possible, how can people survive in this hellish place?"
Fang Heyu frowned, and said, "I don't know how this place was formed, the ghost aura is so strong, even if it is a powerful human being, if it is infected here for a long time, it will become inhuman and ghostly." ”
"So what do we do?"
"Ru'er, you go and call the shopkeeper, let's inquire about it......"
He Xuru soon called the shopkeeper over. The shopkeeper is a young man in his early twenties, very dexterous, knowing that Fang Heyu and the others have just come to Fengdu, they came over, and it is obvious that there seems to be oil and water to be fished.
Fang Heyu smiled and let the shopkeeper sit down, and the fourth girl stood behind him, and the shopkeeper said: "This son, I heard that you and a few ladies are coming to Fengdu for the first time, hey, it's too right to choose our inn, the little one is not bragging, there is nothing I don't know about this Fengdu City." ”
"Then bother the little second brother, dare to ask the little second brother, the first and most important question, the common currency of this Fengdu City is ......"
"Underworld coins, but don't worry, Childe is either rich or expensive at a glance, there is no underworld currency that can be exchanged for things, it's very simple, we can accept everything in abundance, such as food, such as metal, iron, all kinds of spiritual treasures used by human masters, and what kind of crystal nucleus elixir and the like, those who come do not refuse." ”
Fang Heyu said curiously: "The medicine is also accepted, and you people also take medicine?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Childe, this involves the secrets of Fengdu City, you see ......" The shopkeeper said and raised his right hand, rubbing his thumb and index finger and middle finger gently, the meaning was already very obvious.
Fang Heyu took out a bottle of Jing Yuan Dan from the space ring and handed it to him, saying, "This bottle is enough, right?"
The shopkeeper took the medicine bottle with great joy, opened the cap and smelled it, and said with a smile: "The son is really generous, and the little one will say everything." The reason why the pill is needed is to continue life, presumably the son has already seen that the people of Fengdu City are real people and not ghosts, so if you want to live without being completely infected by ghosts, you need to take in energy, the energy of ordinary food is too weak, although it can also have a little effect, but it is far inferior to the pill, so the pill is the most precious in Fengdu City. ”
"I see, then if you are completely infected by the ghost qi in the end, what will be the end?"
"If you are completely infected by the ghostly energy, you will become a walking corpse, and you will finally enter the inner city in a daze. ”
"Inner City, what is that place?"
