Boom!
A loud thunderclap in the dark night, like a mountain collapse, shattered the earth.
After the thunder, a heavy rain poured down, the sound of the rain was like a big river bursting its banks, overflowing onto the shore.
On a cold and rainy night, the ghost lanterns in the sky above Fengdu City did not extinguish at all, still shining dimly to illuminate this city.
A palace-sized flying sedan chair arrived at the Wan Gui Market just before the heavy rain came down, and flew into the ancient tombstone in the auction house.
Hua Er Lou's body seemed to have more fat, changed into a new set of clothes, sat in the largest room of the auction house, which was golden and magnificent. He held a bowl of steaming hot soup in his hand, smiled on his face: "You two say it, what was the situation at that time?"
Jing Jing and Lao Zhuren both knelt down weakly, listening to Hua Er Lou's words. Jing Jing spoke first: "Guo Gongzi came to the auction with a very beautiful girl, they left one hour ago."
"I've heard all this before, what I want to know is why my elder brother and Liu Niang left one after another instead of leaving together." Hua Er Lou explained patiently as he slowly drank the fragrant soup.
The old master carefully told the whole story from beginning to end, telling it to Hua Er Lou without missing a single word.
"It turned out to be like this." Hua Er Lou put the bowl on the table, stood up, and walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. Suddenly, he stopped and said: "You're saying that Liu Xianzi said a sentence and scared my eldest away. Say that sentence again for me."
"This I know." Jingjing learned to speak in the tone of Liu Yanran: "Liu said, there are more than 100 blue crystal cards on my body, all of which were given by others. The blue crystal card you have is the one with the least money, and it was given to this poor boy."
Hua Er Lou clapped his palm and burst out laughing, with a look of loving saint, saying: "I understand, boss! Boss. I said you're an emotional idiot, and you really are an emotional idiot. It seems that you actually fell in love with my cheap sister-in-law, but dare not admit it, haha!"
"What made Master Guo get angry and leave?"
"There are two reasons. The first, and also the main one, is that my elder brother suddenly discovered he had fallen in love with my sister-in-law, but his heart actually belonged to another woman. He couldn't get over this hurdle, so he could only choose to escape."
"Secondly, it's because of my sister-in-law. She's also emotionally numb. Who knew that even a fairy like her had a mortal heart? She actually brought up a forbidden topic with a man." Huā èr Lóu analyzed.
"What taboos?"
"She shouldn't have mentioned someone else giving her a blue crystal card in front of my brother. What's a blue crystal card? Each one is a huge sum of money. If a man knows that the woman he loves has received money from another man, it can't help but trigger his imagination, and sometimes a man's imagination can be terrifying!" Hua Er Lou said with a smile.
"How terrible is it?" Jingjing asked.
Hua Er Lou looked at Jing's delicate appearance, licked his lips, and with a lewd smile, grabbed her small hand, saying: "How about becoming my nineteenth wife?"
"Ah! As expected, it's quite terrifying." A woman's scream echoed through the rainy night.
Endless rain night, piercing cold wind, rapid pursuit.
This night's Fengdu City is no longer peaceful, with countless killing intentions hidden, waves of breaking wind sounds sweeping over the city, and then quickly disappearing tens of miles away.
"Damn it, it's midnight, don't you people want to sleep?" A bald-headed old corpse climbed out of the coffin and scolded loudly at the roof.
"Boom!"
A man with a scar above his left eyebrow kicked the roof, burying the bald old man underground, then turned into a wisp of blue smoke and continued to chase forward.
"Damn it, you're in a hurry to hang yourself!" The bald old man crawled out of the rubble, and before he could stand firm, another black shadow flew over the empty roof above, with a pair of seven-meter-long wings flapping on its body.
The bald old man touched his bald head, muttering to himself: "What's going on tonight, so many masters are shocked, even the top-ranked eighth of the Southern Ridge's young generation, the invincible Shura Bat, has been startled. I'd better go take a look too."
The bald old man worked underground for half a day, digging out a corpse that looked exactly like him, and then his hands formed 99 finger prints, which he slapped onto the corpse. Suddenly, a pair of bony wings grew on the back of the bald corpse.
"Bony Wings Corpse King, fly! Ah, don't shake, you'll fall off!" The bald old man climbed onto the neck of the bald corpse and shook it back and forth as they took to the air, chasing into the darkness. It looked like they might tumble out of the sky at any moment.
At this time, eight hundred miles away, a figure was rapidly flying in the sky, the bloodstains on his body had been completely washed away by the night rain, his feet stepped on the raindrops, each step treaded out three zhang far in the void, just like stepping on flat ground.
He is Guo Yi!
Guo Yiwang glanced back at the pursuers getting closer and closer, then looked at the black dead city a hundred miles away. A cold smile appeared on his face as he said, "I wonder if you have the guts to chase me into the Black Dead City, haha!"
Bǎo Dū City, divided into Bǎo Dū Ghost City and Bǎo Dū Dead City.
No one knows how big Pundu City is. No one can walk from one end of the city to the other, all because of the existence of Pundu Dead City.
The Ghost City is just a general term for the outer suburbs of Fengdu City, and within ten thousand miles is the territory of the Dead City.
The Dead City of Fengdu is located in the very center of the city, this is an absolute dead zone, and few people can walk out of the Dead City. 100,000 years ago, a lord of Fengdu Ghost City once stepped into Fengdu Dead City, walking along one direction, walked for millions of miles without leaving the other end of the Dead City, almost died in the Dead City, spent more than 1,000 years to escape, and then left Fengdu City never came back.
The old master of Fengdu City left a sentence before he left: The territory of Fengdu Dead City is vast and boundless, with millions of miles of continuous ghost houses and mansions, and there are also ghost palaces outside the city. There are countless terrifying existences in the dead city, and cultivators must not step into it.
The black city wall is right in front of us, and inside the city it's pitch black and eerily silent, a truly dead city.
"Whoosh!"
Hei Kū Lóu was the first to catch up, holding a black bone stick in his hand. The bone stick had nine different word patterns carved on it, which shone with a dazzling dark light, as if they were about to fly out of the bone stick.
Guo Yelooked coldly at the black skull blocking his way and said, "Get out of the way."
The black skull moved its bony body, making a creaking sound, then rubbed its chin and said: "What are you running for? You're exhausting me. I just want to ask you, why did you beat that old guy Ouyang Wude to death? Don't you know he owed me money? Now that you've done this, who am I supposed to go to for my money? You have to give me a clear explanation..."
Guo Yishuang's ears twitched, and he turned his head to look back. He saw nine blue ghost lotus flowers blooming with blue ghostly light on the horizon, rapidly approaching. The Confucian-robed noble young master had caught up.
"Never seen a skull with so much nonsense!"
Kuang Ye clenched his fists, and a black ghost flame ignited on his body, transforming into a ghostly light. With one slap, he sent the Black Skull flying, then leapt towards the Dead City, shooting forward like a launched divine bullet. He jumped onto the thick city wall of the Dead City, which was over 300 meters high, and then entered the Dead City without looking back.
"Damn it, this is absolutely a sneak attack, how did two of my ribs get cracked?"
"Boom!"
The black skull flew up from the ground, searched for half a day on the ground and finally found two black ribs. After putting them back, he thought for a moment, then took down the two ribs again, facing the direction of the dead city with a cold tone: "How stupid I am, this is evidence, I must find him to ask for compensation for bodily injury."
Hei Lao's hand grasped two black ribs and also rushed into the dead city of Fengdu, going to extort money from Guo Yao.
"Do you think I'm afraid just because it's the Dead City of Pundu?" The noble young master in Confucian robes stepped on the blue ghost lotus without hesitation and chased into the Dead City.
Looking at the various experts constantly rushing towards the Dead City, the bald old man riding on the bald corpse scolded: "Crazy, this group of people are really rushing to hang themselves." After finishing speaking, he also drove the Bone Wing Corpse King to fly into the Dead City.
Few people dare to enter the city of death, even those with high cultivation only dare to walk around the outskirts of the city, not daring to step within a hundred miles.
In the dead city, all are old houses, no one knows what kind of people used to live in these houses, they have been standing here for tens of thousands of years, but still not rotten, time seems to be unable to erase them.
In the dead city, it was pitch black and there was no corpse oil lamp to illuminate, only some ghost houses would occasionally emit a phosphorescent glow.
Kuo Yi entered the dead city and did not dare to fly in mid-air again, nor did he dare to enter those dilapidated haunted houses. It seemed that some of the haunted houses emitted sounds of devouring corpses, and there might be unknown creatures inside.
"Could it be that the masters of these dilapidated mansions have not yet died completely, and what do they feed on? How can such a large city become a dead city for thousands of years?"
Treading on the pitch-black street, Guo Yi was like a blind man, and could only roughly detect the path ahead with his spiritual sense. He had wanted to summon the Taiji Xianyin to illuminate the way, but feared it would attract even more powerful experts to surround and kill him.
"Whoosh!"
A powerful figure was chasing and killing in the sky above, holding a giant corpse oil lantern to find Guo Yao's trail.
"Ah!"
A gust of dark wind swept through the ghostly mansion, instantly extinguishing the corpse oil lamps. After the lights went out, a strong man's mournful howl was heard, his cries echoing throughout the dead city, sending chills down people's spines. It was unknown what kind of terrifying creature had attacked him.
The screams stopped, Guo Yi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Fortunately, I wasn't flying in the sky, otherwise it might have been me who died. Who knows what kind of creatures or dead things are living in these haunted houses."
There are other pursuers in this area, and they all heard the miserable cry of that expert struggling. At this time, these strong men who have reached the peak of their cultivation do not want to stay in the city of death anymore, thinking it is an unlucky place. Some people have already begun to quietly exit the city of death, but some still have not given up.
