Chapter 17: Blood Splattered Jiuhua Building
After separating from Xin and Shun, Lingxi and Bai Junqian also walked forward.
In the process, there is really a green building - "Yo! The two sons who are so handsome, and the female demon cultivator is specially sitting, why don't you come in and sit down, and then ...... Lie down again. "The meaning contained in the language is disgusting.
Gambling house - "Buy and leave! Buy and leave! Ladies and gentlemen, hurry up and place a bet at the right time, this demon cultivator was just caught yesterday, and it will be opened if you don't hurry up!" a rough voice came.
There are also restaurants..... Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are all shown here, and the outside world is just a gimmick from here, Demon Cultivation.
Immediately, what attracted them was an unusually gorgeous-looking building, "Jiuhua Building".
It seems to occupy the most central position on this street, and the appearance looks comparable to the palace, it has a total of five floors, unlike the others, each floor here is hung with white lanterns, but faintly red light, and people are coming and going one after another.
"Lingxi, it looks like we need to go inside. Bai Jun said.
"Oh. After Lingxi finished answering, he silently followed behind Bai Junqian. She had no way to stop Bai Junqian now, so she could only go with the flow.
When they walked into the building, they looked closely, and in the center was a vermilion lacquer square platform about two meters high, on which stood a man wearing a pure white mask and wearing pure white clothes...... Look at the figure and the tone of the voice, they are all men.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this first floor is for the bounty building, please come here to receive the wooden plaque, exchange it with the equivalent of what you are about to offer, and give it to me, the number shown on the wooden plaque means that you can go to the floor. Please do not cross the building, those who are found will do so at their own risk. β
This sentence has been repeated, as if this person has not stopped talking, and in front of the vermilion lacquer square platform where he is standing is lined up in a neat line, everyone is not visible, but from their limbs can see their unusual excitement.
The sandalwood lit on the pedestal was smoky. In a huge place, greed seems to have corrupted human nature.
"Master, are we going to line up there too?" Lingxi asked.
"According to the man's words, we had to go there and line up to see what was hidden in this palace-like building. β
"But Master, we don't have anything to barter. β
"Well, this ......" Bai Junqian was silent for a while, then stared at the team again, and found that there was everything used to exchange-
For example, if a drawn charm, a second-level or higher charm, even if it is not used by the caster himself, others can use it.
And the Spirit Sword. A fat man wearing a pig-like mask took a sword with a golden dragon carving handle from his waist, and when he looked at the scabbard, it was also golden, and there were several dazzling gems on it.
So all the dots on the wooden card that this person got were Wu, and it seemed to be the fifth layer.
Of course, there are people who take the coin directly, but the number he gets is two.
...... It's weird, and there's all sorts of things. There are also things that have been rejected.
INTERVIEWER I always feel that this time things are going in a more and more complicated direction.
"Let's go over. Bai Junqian didn't say a word, and pulled Lingxi to walk towards the place where there was a queue.
In the process, Lingxi bumped into several people, and she felt extremely uneasy and disgusted.
"Spirited ......"
Hearing Bai Junqian call her, she raised her head. As a result, Bai Junqian actually protected her in his arms and slowly led her forward.
By the time they reached the group, Lingxi's ears were a little red.
"Look, Lingxi, that's what I traded for. Bai Junqian said as he took out a few charms from his arms, "I didn't expect that the charms brought out by Xia Shang this time were actually used on this." β
"......" Lingxi was dumbfounded.
After a long time, when it was their turn, the man in the white mask who seemed to be high above stretched out his hand.
The strange thing is that he finally stopped repeating the previous words, but said to Lingxi: "This son, your eyes are so beautiful. β
A completely inexplicable and wonderful word. However, because of this, Lingxi felt that this voice was extremely beautiful, even in such a noisy environment around him, this voice was extremely clear.
Immediately, the hands approached like Lingxi, and Lingxi couldn't move his body for some reason.
The next moment, Bai Junqian pulled Lingxi behind him and handed over the second-level charms in his hand to the man with a white mask.
"Please hand over the wooden sign. Bai Junqian's tone revealed a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Wait a minute. Before he finished speaking, the man in the white mask took one from the second row of the four rows of wooden cards neatly arranged on the table, and handed it to Bai Junqian, which was engraved with three, that is, the third layer.
After Bai Junqian took it, he lifted it up and looked at it, shook it in his hand, and said, "Thank you." β
"No thanks. The man in the white mask replied.
Then she was led by a small mustache to the place where the black strip of cloth was hiding in the corner, Lingxi was still apprehensive when she first walked in, but all that appeared before her eyes was a staircase.
It's a little dim, but it's okay.
Slowly stepping up, the slightly heavy steps and the wooden plank made a muffled sound, but after only a few steps, the sound in my ears suddenly changed, and a burst of female voices and the sound of various musical instruments came into my ears.
When they thought they saw a beautiful light gauze curtain, with red shadows, Lingxi and Bai Junqian, what they saw was a gambling house.
And it doesn't look like it's on the third floor of the building, there's the columns, the roof, and ...... It's like a separate building, and it also gathers the characteristics of the shops on this street, but it is even more eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
With the palatial red as the keynote, there is also a gorgeous carpet on the ground, and the voices are full of people, extremely lively, listen carefully-
"Buy and leave...... Come on...... Kill him...... Why is it so useless...... Lost ......"
A circle of people gathered together, and it seemed as if there was an iron cage in the center of their enclosure.
Bai Junqian and Lingxi looked at each other, didn't say anything, and walked over together.
The unusually spacious place was still crowded, filled with all kinds of clamours and roars, and the fierce smell of blood.
After a long time, when I walked to see it, what caught my eye was a huge iron cage surrounded by a defensive enchantment, and the two demon cultivators inside were fighting to the death.
A demon cultivator in the cage, who was already hanging a broken arm, begged for mercy with pain and blood on his face: "Let me go, let me go......"
"What are you begging for, hurry up and fight!" shouted the man outside the cage.
Then the other looked crazy and was about to reach out and make a final move, he jumped forward, sent his body off the ground, and kicked at the neck of the demon cultivator opposite him, and the mana represented by the evil qi was also injected.
There was a "click", and the smell of blood in the air became even stronger.
One lives, one dies.
"Please ask the guest officer who just bought this magic cultivator to come and receive the return. As soon as these words came out, there was an instant of applause.
"It's right, it's right! It's a big deal!" someone shouted happily.
"His grandmother's, it's really bad luck today! I'm blind!" Some people cursed incessantly, beating their chests.
This is gambling, gambling on life and death.
But seeing their reactions, Lingxi only felt uncomfortable, gambling on the lives and deaths of others, she couldn't accept it, and her anger rose faintly.
Bai Junqian was on the side, and he was also resentful.
"The fifth, please bet! One was in the Yuan Infant Stage before, and now he has just fallen into the Demon Dao, and the evil spirit is flourishing. One is a demon cultivator who has fallen into the Demon Dao for fifty years from the Jindan stage and has killed countless ordinary people......"
The next moment, when they came out of the dim passage, there was a completely ordinary person who looked like an ordinary person, dressed in tattered black. The other was terrifying, with a face covered with ravines.
I thought they would start fighting immediately, but they didn't, the two looked at each other for a long time, and they didn't say a word for a long time.
Untilβ
One said: "Brother Jade." β
Another said: "Brother Yunlan." β
The two said in unison, "I'm sorry." β
The terrifying-looking demon cultivator drew a spell in the air, and the spell was faintly glowing with black gas. At the time of the quick completion of that last stroke, countless black vines rushed towards the other demon cultivator.
This kind of bondage spell, in the case of a similar realm, once it is entangled, the other party has no chance to break free at all.
The ordinary-looking demon cultivator was not flustered at all, watching dozens of vines coming towards him, he just drew a spell in the air, and then a defensive enchantment glowing with black gas quickly unfolded.
Bai Junqian observed that the defensive enchantment seemed to be more than that.
At this time, when the black vines attacked, they were immediately shaken by the defensive barrier, and even a few vines were shattered by the shock, and the smoke and dust drifted, covering most of the vision of the iron cage.
"Sure enough......," Bai Junqian thought.
In the next moment, "Quick!" The two demon cultivators shouted loudly and pulled each other from the side. Immediately afterwards, with a "boom", the iron cage exploded, the air distorted, and cracks appeared in the enchantment that covered the iron cage.
"Ahhh......h
"Please be calm, they can't come out, our owner will solve it. Just when everyone was puzzled, suddenly a dazzling golden light attacked towards the two demon cultivators.
By the time they opened their eyes, the two of them were already a blur of flesh and blood, and blood was all over the ground.
"......" made Lingxi feel a little sick to his stomach for a moment.
But the surrounding crowd seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said one after another:
"Luckily. β
What kind of world is this that causes such a cold-blooded character.
Bai Junqian found the person who cast this powerful spell.
And the immortal cultivator who can cast such a powerful spell, the realm is not much to say, it is already in the late stage of the Yuan Infant, and it may or may not be higher.
And the "owner" that the little mustache said...... Bai Junqian suspected that this person was likely to be the owner, and if he was not the owner, he would definitely have a close relationship with the owner.
Coupled with the current situation, the only way to find out the owner is to rescue the demon cultivators here.
"Stop!" As soon as this voice came out, it immediately disappeared in the crowd, and only a few people around Bai Junqian turned their heads sideways.
Bai Junqian pulled Lingxi and prepared to catch up, but he never thought that Lingxi's mask fell off at this moment.
