Chapter 242 Hinterland Soul City

The bearded man was surprised by Xue Zhongzhu's answer, the cultivators who were able to come here were basically for the relics of the gods, looking for the treasures left by the ancient gods. No one comes here to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

The hinterland of Wanyuan Mountain is known as the land of death, and I don't know how many cultivators have entered here since ancient times, and very few may have made it out alive. Cultivators who come here without a purpose are almost always strayed or coerced.

And Xue Zhongzhu's answer was calm and calm, and it was not to look for the treasures in the miracle, how could this not be surprising, could it be that there was nothing to do here to seek death and play.

The bearded man looked at the snow carefully, then looked at Zhou Feng sideways, and pondered for a moment with an expressionless face, "Can you tell me the purpose of your coming here?"

"Find someone. Xue Zhongzhi replied briefly, his expression still the same.

"Find someone! Since you can come here, you must have heard the legend about this place, and a few people who came in are still alive, and if you find someone, it will be a pile of bones, or a lonely ghost. The bearded man looked at the snow again, his empty eyes confused.

"But you can come with us, and there may be someone to look for. The bearded man put away his bone knife and made a gesture of please.

The other half-yin people were all grinning and their expressions were stiff, but they seemed to be very excited, holding grasshopper meat in their hands and staring straight at Zhou Feng and the others.

Zhou Feng couldn't help but shudder when he looked at the strange expressions of these people, and in his heart, this half-yin person was even more panicked than that evil ghost. He involuntarily tugged at the placket of his shirt in the snow, hoping that this benevolent brother would think twice.

Xue Zhong turned his face to Zhou Feng and smiled: "Little madman, this big brother is so gracious, let's go and have a look." ”

At this time, the eight or nine-year-old boy suddenly ran over and went to pull Zhou Feng's hand in the snow very affectionately. Although the child in front of him didn't look cute, out of politeness, Xue Zhongzhu still stretched out his hand, and his small hand exuded a trace of coolness.

When the little boy's hand touched Zhou Feng, he hurriedly shrank back, his deep and empty eyes were full of fear, and his small body involuntarily dodged out.

Zhou Feng grinned, he understood the reason, his own yang energy was too strong, which made these semi-yin people a little jealous.

The little boy's actions once again attracted the bearded man's attention to Zhou Feng, and he took a deep breath and asked, "This little brother has such a strong yang qi, but he is born with it. ”

"No, this is the result of my brother's acquired cultivation. Without waiting for Zhou Feng to answer, he rushed back in the snow.

"The two of them are really good, one cultivates the method of extreme yin, and the other cultivates the method of extreme yang, complementing each other, it can be described as a natural pair, rare in the world!" said the bearded man with a smile, sighing that there are many geniuses in the world.

Xuezhong's cheeks were slightly red, and this half-yin person should have seen that she was a daughter.

Zhou Fengmuna, who didn't know the meaning of this half-yin person's words, scolded him in his heart for not having long eyes and talking nonsense.

Several half-yin people led the way in front, Xue Zhongzhu and Zhou Feng followed closely behind, and the little boy tilted his head next to him and moved Zhou Feng and Xue Zhongzhu's faces from time to time, and his small mouth opened to smile.

In the snow, he doesn't like to talk, he smiles all the way, walks leisurely, and is chic and natural.

Zhou Feng was a little boring, and when he saw that the little boy kept peeking at him, he quipped: "Little brother, who do you think is handsome, me or this brother?"

The little boy seemed to be frightened when he heard Zhou Feng talking to him, he hurriedly hid in the snow one by one, poked out half of his face, and said timidly: "People are a girl, what are you shouting nonsense." ”

A crisp and tactful but delicate voice came into Zhou Feng's ears, and it sounded like a big girl's voice.

Zhou Feng scratched his head, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and asked the little boy in disbelief: "What you said just now?"

The little boy nodded and said, "It's a sixteen-year-old girl, and it's okay if you call me sister." ”

Xue Zhongzhu couldn't help but look down a few times when he heard the little boy speak, and his eyes showed pity and sighs.

Zhou Feng was speechless for a moment, and swallowed back the words in his stomach, you can't joke with a big girl at will, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, this is what he has personally experienced.

"Girl, let's say a few words. The bearded man glanced back at the little boy, his tone full of loss.

Quietly along the way, except for the swing of blades of grass, there was a panicked escape of various flying insects.

Unconsciously, Zhou Feng and Xue Zhongzhu followed those half-yin people out of the tall meadow, and the sight in front of them made the two of them stunned and unbelievable.

I saw that the space in front of me suddenly opened up, as if I had entered another world. The mountains and rivers are undulating and cascading. The fog is rolling between the top of the mountain, surging and churning, like an upside-down ocean, majestic and boundless.

Between the mountains and the big grassland is a ditch, ten miles wide and a hundred miles long, which just separates this big grassland.

On the slope near the big grassland is a dense loess cave, and from time to time there are figures shaking. On the other side of the ditch, however, the dirt slope was bare, and there was not a single figure in sight.

"This is our current home, and everyone named it Earth Soul City. There are more than 20,000 semi-yin people living here, and more than 1,000 living people. The bearded man pointed to the dense caves.

"There are living people?"

Xue Zhongzhu and Zhou Feng asked at the same time.

"Well, they're treasure hunters who survived. The bearded man replied gloomily.

"Then why don't they leave here?" Zhou Feng asked curiously.

"Who doesn't want to go out, including us half-yin people, there is not even a place to reincarnate here, and the souls of the dead can only survive by holding corpses. There is an enchantment of the ancient gods at the gate of the earth, and those who enter have been wiped out, and even the yin soul cannot escape, so they can only stay here to fend for themselves. At this, tears fell from the bearded man's empty eyes, and the tears were pale green.

Zhou Feng was just about to open his mouth to say that the secret passage could go out, but he was stopped by Xue Zhongzhu's eyes, which meant that he couldn't say it yet.

Yes, these are more than 20,000 half-yin people, and if they return to the realm at the same time, I don't know what chaos will happen. Moreover, there are not many dangers in this hinterland, if they also take the opportunity to escape to the earth, they may be ruined, wailing all over the wilderness, and even destroying the existing species, and then it will lead to a catastrophe in heaven and earth.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the city lord, he has the names of the half-yin and living people in the whole city, and you will know if there is anyone you are looking for when the time comes. The bearded man motioned for the others to go back, and he wanted to take Zhou Feng and the others to meet the city lord.

The little boy always pulled the snow and refused to let go, and seemed to have a love for this one.

The bearded man shook his head and mourned as he walked, "This child's name is Yimei, and she followed her parents here hundreds of years ago to hunt for treasures, and the whole family was unfortunately killed. Her parents' souls were eaten by the Soul Eater, leaving this girl to escape from Soul Eater Mountain, but only a Yin Soul remained. I saw that she was able to find a few corpses that had just died, so that her soul barely survived. ”

Zhou Feng turned his head to look at the little boy named Yimei again, expressing sympathy.

"Now, there are fewer and fewer cultivators in the hinterland of Wanyuan Mountain, and there are very few corpses for us to parasitize, and in a few hundred years, we half-yin people will completely disappear here, and you living people with superb cultivation will be replaced by you. The bearded man sighed as he spoke.

"By the way, how did you enter the hinterland of Wanyuan Mountain?" Zhou Feng always felt that something was wrong, if there was an enchantment in the underground gate, how did these people who didn't know the secret path get in.

"We all entered through the ground gate, did you come in from another passage?" Hearing Zhou Feng's words, the bearded man wondered.

"We also entered through the underground gate, just wondering if there was any other entrance to the hinterland of Wanyuan Mountain. Zhou Feng hurriedly replied, it seems that this gate has a setting that can only enter but not exit, these old guys who have laid down the enchantment are really ruthless.

"I've heard rumors that there is a secret passage in this hinterland, or someone would have escaped, but no one has found out where the secret passage is. The bearded man said dejectedly.

Zhou Feng and Xue Zhongzhu didn't say much, and silently followed behind the bearded man.

By this time, they had walked through the path between the caves.

The arrival of Zhou Feng and Xue Zhongzhu attracted the attention of the half-yin people hiding in the cave, and their empty eyes moved with the figures of Zhou Feng and the others.

"That high cave is the residence of the living, all of them are cultivators, our city lord is also one of the living, the cultivation is extremely high, if he didn't control the order here, the earth soul city would have ceased to exist a long time ago. "The bearded man is a talker, chattering along the way.

In front of it is a high slope, and the cave above looks relatively wide, and the entrance of the cave is planted with flowers and plants. Zhou Feng recognized at a glance that these flowers and plants were all high-grade spirit grasses, rare things in the world, but they were everywhere here.

Entering the living living quarters, there were many cultivators of the Immortal Wind Dao Bone who cast a flat glance at Zhou Feng and the others, as if they felt that it was very common for someone to come here.

Seeing the living people, Zhou Feng was in a good mood, and he couldn't stop nodding to those people with a smile, but in exchange for indifferent eyes.

The bearded man who loved to talk stopped talking, stared straight ahead with a vacant gaze, and walked briskly, looking extremely cautious.

In the snow, Imei still smiled, ignoring those who were alive. And Imei clutched the hand in the snow tightly, looking frightened.

Zhou Feng could feel that the half-yin people should be very jealous of these living cultivators.

"Old empty man, where did this living man come from, he didn't understand the rules at all?" a stocky Humpty Dumpty man and two middle-aged men blocked the bearded man's path.

The three of them all looked to be in their forties, wearing blue robes and a small yellow gourd tied around their waists, and it seemed that the three of them were in the same family. It's just that seeing the expressions on their faces, it should be the one who owes the beating.

The small flame in Zhou Feng's heart was ignited in a flash, and he was used to this kind of master, so he could only speak with his fists.
