Chapter 187: The Undead

A firework exploded overhead, and many of these short brown people suddenly poured out from the long corridor where the palace lamps were lit. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

These people are not very old, and they all look like they are just teenagers and girls, but their faces that should be vigorous are dead ash at the moment, only their eyes are flexible and vivid, and their movements, more like old men, have been slowed down several times.

The men, armed with machetes and ropes, wanted to arrest the two outsiders.

Mu Changning and Li Xiao didn't waste any more strength and time to kill the Quartet, after all, although the number of this group of people was the majority, they were slow, and the threat posed to them was not great, they only needed to remove a few people who stood in the way and find another way to survive.

The sword fell, and the blazing sword cut off the head of the young man in front of him who lifted the machete, and there was no unexpected blood splashing, and even the other party didn't even make a sound, and his expressionless face didn't seem to feel any pain at all.

Mu Changning looked at the head on the ground, and couldn't help but be shocked at this glance.

At the severed neck, there was no flesh and bones, only a layer of skin wrapped in a large gray-black object, and they just came out of the stone man array knew very well what the gray-black object was...... Stone people, these teenagers and girls, they are all stone people!

Yes, they were all dressed in the same short brown, but they were different from the stone men they had just met, they were still wrapped in a thin layer of skin and flesh, and they looked no different from ordinary people on the outside.

The severed head rolled back to the young man's side, and the young man lifted the head and put it on himself again, and he was alive again.

Mu Changning felt a chill down his spine for no reason.

These things, whether they are people or stones!

They have no spiritual power fluctuations on their bodies, they are not goblins and ghosts, but they still have the breath of life on their bodies, and they are really alive!

Looking through is not there, just based on her knowledge and cognition, she can't figure out the trick.

Li Xiao was also greatly surprised when he saw this situation, they have a corpse puppet hall in the Heavenly Demon Palace, refining walking corpses and making puppets, every excellent and successful product can be defeated by one enemy, and it is a good helper when going into battle to kill the enemy.

But no matter how good the walking corpse, no matter how delicate the puppet, they are all controlled by people, they have no thoughts, they can't communicate, no matter how tough their appearance is, there are times when they are damaged, they will never be like these things, neither dead nor disabled!

And if you talk about these skin-like stone people, the only thing that is lacking compared to those walking corpse puppets is that they are slow to react and move stiffly......

The cloister was full of such slow-moving skinned stone figures, and in the room next to the cloister, there was a heavy breath one after another. Through a door, you chase me outside, and the inside is fragrant.

What the hell is this place!

Mu Changning kicked away a skin-like stone man blocking the way, Li Xiao saw that there were more and more of these things, and by the dim light of the palace lamp, he saw a faint sparkling wave outside the fence on the side, which seemed to be a lake......

"If you continue to fight, you will return to the Stone Man Formation. He shook his head and said decisively, "Jump into the lake!"

After Li Xiao finished speaking, he jumped into the lake, and Mu Changning immediately followed without saying a word. The water of the lake was so cold that it trembled and its blood congealed.

Those skin-like stone people did not go into the water, if they were really made of stone, they would not be able to swim in the water at this time, Mu Changning and Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, did not dare to pause any longer, felt the direction of the water, and swam into the distance.

Both of them had little physical strength left, so they could only support each other and struggle to move forward in the night.

Stretching out her hand, Mu Changning seemed to have found a reef, she grabbed the reef with one hand and Li Xiao with the other, and the two of them leaned on this reef for a while.

The miserable white moonlight sprinkled miserably, the lake water shimmered, and Mu Changning's lips were frozen bloodless.

She looked up at the full moon, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly, "That's not right, when we just jumped into the stone well, it was still noon, and it was only after such a while, why is it already night?"

Li Xiao exhaled deeply, leaning against the reef and gasping, "Chaos divides yin and yang, you and I were on the yang side when we came, the sun was shining on the sky, and at this moment it must be on the yin side, and this is when the cold moon hangs high." ”

"And what about those people just now?" she asked, "is it a man or a stone, or is it a mountain spirit or a ghost?"

Li Xiao looked at her with a smile, "How does this seat know?" He paused slightly, and his expression suddenly became gloomy: "It's really miserable, and when this seat goes out, I will have to break that person's body into ten thousand pieces!"

The person who said this is naturally Yongmei Zhenren.

Mu Changning rolled his eyes, "Let's go out first......"

Both of them were silent at this time.

After coming to this place for so long, apart from the few white-robed people I saw in the blood pool, there were only those skin-like stone people I had just met and the men and women who were upside down in the house.

The stone man chased and killed them, those men and women didn't seem to have any senses, and the only white-robed man who looked relatively normal had never encountered it again, not to mention, in this place full of weirdness, who could say that the white-robed man would not do anything to outsiders like them?

How to get out, this problem is not solved at all.

Mu Changning thought that maybe he would find something, but he was not here now, and everything had to be done by himself first.

I don't know how long it took, the two of them felt a little stronger, so they let go of the reef and continued to swim forward, they seemed to enter a long river from a lake, and felt that there was no one around, and the two went ashore wet.

The body has long been frozen unconscious, coming out of the ice water, and then blowing by the cold wind, the two of them who have not invaded the cold and heat for many years can finally understand again what is called the number nine cold winter.

There was a stone bridge not far away, and the sound of heavy and dragging footsteps sounded, and the two of them looked at each other, and they both hid in the bridge hole, and they clearly felt how these footsteps trembled overhead.

It was a stone man patrolling the night......

When the night watchmen left, the two waited for a while, looked at each other, and decided to go up and have a look.

However, as soon as they landed, as far as the eye could see, there was a corner of white robes.

Mu Changning "chuckled" in his heart, slowly raised his head, and sure enough, he saw a white-robed man standing quietly in place, silent.

"The master wants to see you. His voice was as undulating as his expressionless face.

The master of the white-robed population should be the supreme leader of this place, there have been too many strange things in this period of time, and they also want to know what is going on in this place, not to mention that their current physical strength and energy have reached the point of the end of the crossbow, and if they continue to hold on, the result may not be much better.

This white-robed man was obviously different from the men and women in the room, his mind was very clear, and unlike those skin-like stone people, he was flesh and blood, his movements were agile, and his face was not stiff, but this white-robed man had no breathing, no heartbeat, and no life on his body.

The white-robed man led them into a pavilion.

"The host was inside. He glanced at them and said respectfully, with a little awe in his tone, but the eyes he looked at them were full of fragmentary glimmers.

Mu Changning suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, nodded and said, "Thank you." ”

"Thanks?" The white-robed man was slightly stunned, Mu Ne's eyes lit up slightly, and he shook his head very excitedly: "No thanks, no thanks." ”

Li Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth, he was impatient to continue to consume, and took the lead in the pavilion, Mu Changning turned around and looked at the white-robed man strangely, and also walked inside.

The interior of the house is extremely luxuriously decorated, and the glazed palace lamp illuminates the whole house brightly, but the beautiful house, because it is not popular, still looks cold and empty.

Climbing up the stairs to the top, where the lights were dim, a girl in red looked at them. The girl looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, and her face was delicate and lovely, but her face was a sickly pale. Like the white-robed man in Fangcai, there was no one on the girl's body.

"You are from the outside world, you are not from here. The girl looked at them and said in the affirmative. Her expression was calm, and she sighed softly: "No one has been to this place for many years......

That sound really like an old man who has been through the vicissitudes of life, with a kind of dead silence and despair.

Li Xiao didn't care how long no one had been to this place, he only cared about how to get out!

"Girl, I have no intention of breaking into this place, I have to disturb a lot, and I hope that Haihan, as long as the girl tells us how to leave, we will definitely go far away, and will not say a word about this place to anyone. Li Xiao said sincerely.

For him, it is rare to be able to lower his posture like this, this is not the cultivation realm, let alone the Heavenly Demon Palace, here, no one will buy their account, the one who knows the times is Junjie, Li Xiao has always understood this very well.

The girl's gaze was far away, and it fell lightly on Li Xiao. She tugged at the corners of her mouth and smiled softly, "If I can get out, why should I stay?"

Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, and pursed his lips tightly: "What do you mean?"

"Do you think I'm a native of here?" the girl scoffed, "and like you, I only got here by accident. Haven't you been able to get rid of it for thousands of years?"

Everyday!

Mu Changning and Li Xiao were taken aback.

In this world, except for the god monk, who can live for thousands of years! This girl, she, she ......

The girl laughed eatingly, and a pair of vicissitudes of life showed a few fluctuations in her quiet eyes, "You are all monks, you should know that this place is full of chaotic qi, if I am really a god, I don't wait to react, I am afraid that I will be strangled by this chaotic qi on the spot." ”

Since she is not a god, how can she have such a long life?

"Would you like to hear the story here?" the girl smiled.

By this point, they simply had no other superfluous options.

The three of them sat across from each other.

The girl's name is Ake, a turmoil 10,000 years ago, so that she, as a Jindan monk, and a group of servants came to this area, and the chaotic qi destroyed their bodies in all directions, like Mu Changning and Li Xiao, they immediately chose to close their cultivation and live like ordinary mortals.

But having experienced the extraordinaryness of being a monk, who would be willing to revert back to being ordinary?

"For the first 100 years, I was crazy looking for a way to get out, and for the next 100 years, I dreamed about how I could go back, and then I thought that it would be good to be able to go back again in my lifetime, and finally, I recognized the reality and stopped doing these useless ......"

Ah Ke had no sorrow or joy, and slowly narrated the story, but Li Xiao's face became darker and darker when he heard it.

Can't get out? Could it be that he can only be trapped here for the rest of his life?

Mu Changning's mood was also a little heavy, but at the same time, she was still full of doubts, "Since the predecessor was just a golden pill, why is it that thousands of years have passed, and now the life is still unfinish......ed?"

Ake looked at them calmly: "This is an immortal city, a city that I created single-handedly, as for why I am still alive, it is because I am now an immortal." ”

She smiled, but her smile was full of loneliness.

Immortal City?

Mu Changning and Li Xiao looked at each other, and Li Xiao asked, "What is an immortal?"

"You came from the immortal dwelling, haven't you noticed it all the way? Those people who are chasing you are immortal and immortal, and they will live forever, this is the immortal. ”

Immortal and immortal?

Mu Changning thought of those stone people, it is true that they can't be killed or broken no matter how they fight, but those skin-like stone people are different from Ake.

Ah Ke shook his head slowly, "Those are all failures, including those in the Immortal Residence, all of them are failures, and the real immortals are the same as me and those in white robes." ”

Mu Changning suddenly had a bad premonition, and a strange smile appeared on Ake's face, "You have come all the way from the Holy Pool, you must have also witnessed the blood sacrifice and holy baptism, right? The men and women of the Immortal City, when they reach the age of fifteen, must undergo holy baptism, and if the holy baptism is successful, they can become an immortal like me and have an endless lifespan, while the loser has only two results......

"Petrify, or, become an idiot. Mu Changning continued.

"Not bad. A hint of appreciation flashed in Ake's eyes, "Holy baptism is the transformation from the soul to the body, those idiots have been eliminated when the soul is quenched, their role is only to nurture offspring and add fresh blood to the immortal city, and those stone people have completed the refining of the divine soul, but the physical body refining has not been able to break through, and they are slowly petrified from the inside out, and they can only become the defenders of the immortal city." ”

Mu Changning felt a chill down his spine, those stone people, and those men and women who had no sanity and only cared about happiness, were all just failures of experiments! Turning a living person into such a person who is not a ghost or a ghost, and never tires of it over and over again, this person is simply a psychopath!

Li Xiao can understand Ake's behavior, if he researches a new poison, he will also test the effect on countless people, Ake, like him, is a madman to some extent.

Looking at the very different reactions of the two people in front of him, Ah Kehun didn't care, "Changsheng, isn't it good?"

She slowly stood up, picked up a cup on the table, took a sip, the bright liquid stained her pale lips, and Ake smiled lowly, "Accompany me to live forever, okay?" (To be continued.) )
