Chapter Fifty-Six: Whoever is looking forward to come, can't stand the chatter
There are many pedestrians on the main road of Shanghe City, rubbing shoulders. Changning and Lu Ming walked side by side in the crowd, moving slowly with the crowd.
The anxious state of mind of the two before entering the city, after they were really in the city, gradually settled down.
The city defense array is running slowly, and there are so many merchant martial arts halls, many of whom are wealthy, and they also spend a lot of money to invite cultivators to protect themselves as offerings.
The two of them had only been on the street for a quarter of an hour or so, and they saw no less than five cultivators of different realms Shi Shiran passing by, although it was only a step-by-step cultivation, compared to the disciples of the Sword Shrine, they were not at all in the stream, and their qualifications were ordinary, and their potential was almost exhausted, but they were also genuine cultivators, and there was no ambiguity in the actual fighting, which was really a world of difference compared to ordinary martial artists.
What made Changning even more stunned was that one of the waves did not know who the son was, one of the ordinary people, and the two three-step female cultivators who were hugging each other left and right, passing by under the crowd of house slaves in a high-spirited manner.
When Changning overlapped with the two three-step female cultivators, he obviously felt a charming atmosphere. Look at the blue and black in the eyes of the boy's brother, and you can know that he is indulging in this endless gentle countryside and cannot extricate himself, I am afraid that sooner or later the family business will be ruined.
The water waves in the eyes of the two female cultivators flowed, but this autumn water did not look easy, Changning still had something to do, so it was naturally impossible to meddle with it.
The cultivators who are walking outside are still like this, and those who are hidden in the deep mansions and compounds of the city must be only a lot more, although the realm is not very high, but it is better than the number. There was a change somewhere in the city, and even if the Great Array didn't check it, these cultivators wouldn't necessarily be able to sense it.
However, it was precisely because of this that Changning and Lu Ming were even more confused.
Because from any point of view, Shanghe City is definitely not a suitable place for cultivators to commit murder. Even if the murderer secretly laid out a great array of confusing souls, there will always be some flaws in the long-term operation, whether someone is inexplicably missing, or the abnormal collection of Dao power, it is enough to arouse people's vigilance.
In this kind of sealed city, the Soul Confusion Array devoured more than a hundred people at most, and it was not even efficient to put them in the wild and capture the people in the village settlements.
What is the purpose of choosing the Shanghe City formation?
Moreover, the cold malice in Changning's feeling never appeared again. The clue was abruptly broken in mid-air, Changning couldn't kill it in a big way, and it was directly publicized that someone wanted to be unfavorable to Shanghe City. Even if he has the identity of a disciple of the Sword Shrine, I'm afraid no one will believe him.
After Qing Si Seng entered the city, he didn't know where he went, Changning looked around for a long time, whether it was a hat or a bald head, he didn't see a single one. However, looking at the posture of the crowd on the street, I thought that even if Qing thought waited for the two of them somewhere, it would only be a moment to be dispersed by this crowd.
Changning and Lu Ming simply stopped looking for him. Anyway, before entering the city, the three of them had already discussed the secret notes, and they could always get together with a little attention.
Lu Ming took out the Zhiyou Pearl, crossed the Dao Force and entered, and then the surface of the bead slightly emitted light.
The two of them glanced at each other, knowing that this was a sign that the Netherworld Power was looming nearby.
Turning left and right, the two finally broke away from the most crowded streets and walked onto a sparsely populated path. After walking down a few streets, the Zhiyouzhu always maintained the appearance that it seemed to be extinguished at any time, but it was able to maintain the last bit of light. It wasn't until they detoured into this unknown trail that the brilliance of the Zhiyou Pearl slowly stabilized.
The trail looks like it has been sparsely maintained for a long time, and there should have been some small shops on the side of the road in the early years, and now it is closed, and it is still open. Some of the masonry on the ground was broken and broken, and it was not repaired, and it was loose and unsteady when stepped on. The small buildings in the middle of the corridor obscured the sky, and even though it was afternoon, there was hardly any sunlight in. A cold wind from nowhere slowly passed through the path, and people couldn't help but feel a thrill.
Lu Ming looked at Changning, his face mixed with nervousness and doubt. She can kill all sides in a group of living golems without changing her face, but this kind of eerie scene is too lethal for a girl.
Changning's shoulders sank, his arms relaxed, and he held the scabbard weakly, ready to draw his sword at any time.
"Your Excellency has led you all the way here, and now you can come out and see you?" Changning said in a deep voice.
An old voice sounded behind the two: "The old man is here." Two, the road is narrow, can you borrow it?"
When I turned to look, a rickety old lady was on a thick wooden crutch, dressed in coarse linen clothes, looking ordinary, no different from any old lady basking in the sun and knocking melon seeds on the street.
But when the old lady lowered her head with a smile on her face and took a step forward, Zhiyouzhu suddenly shone brightly.
Changning and Lu Ming flew back along the trail almost immediately.
The cold breath that erupted from the old lady's rickety body instantly froze the ground and walls of the trail.
It was obviously summer noon, but the cold was even worse than the harsh winter.
The old lady approached slowly. She was thin and clumsy, but in terms of her intimidating momentum, she was more obscured than any of the small buildings around.
"This is the sealing array, which can block the twenty-four breaths of the great array of the city. The two young men have done a few tricks with the old body, and the old body will tell you, how about the clues to what you are looking for?"
Changning frowned.
He could hear what the old lady meant.
If you can't survive these twenty-four breaths, your life is not guaranteed, so naturally it doesn't matter if you have clues or not.
Without waiting for Changning to answer, an ice pick struck him head-on, without making a sound. Before the ice pick arrived, Changning's eyebrows could feel a sharp pain!
The long sword stood up, and with a clang, it was a good ice pick.
And Changning only felt that the hand holding the sword became extremely sore with this impact, and a more cold feeling was slowly spreading upward along the hand holding the sword.
Dao power rushed recklessly, and forced this chill out with difficulty.
