The fast travel is too late

Chapter 262 She Is the Man in the Shadow (18)

"Is that so!"

Liang Xiu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, which made him have the urge to refuse to go to the two towns.

Xin Wu's eyelids moved in the shadow space. After waking up from the dream, he subconsciously wandered around outside, and saw the faint hesitation on Liang Xiu's face.

"Haven't you found two towns yet? Would you like me to help you!"

This was the first time Xin Wu had spoken to Liang Xiu since the last time he got angry.

Putting aside the bad premonition in his heart, the corners of Liang Xiu's mouth curled up, "I can't say that, if you wake up later, maybe I have already arrived in two towns."

"But when I woke up, you hadn't arrived yet, so of course it should be classified as not found!"

Xin Wu chattered with him, unwilling to admit defeat at all.

Unclear that the person who asked him to tell the rumors in the two towns had lost his mind, the old beggar took a sip of his tea, paused for a moment, and said again: "I don't know who you are, but the shopkeeper treats you respectfully." , you must be a monk! I have been here for many years, and I know a lot of things. For example, the shopkeeper of this restaurant has a special way to identify monks. Every time I see a monk, no matter how high or low he is, He will go up to entertain by himself, instead of letting his family's second child go, so you should be a monk!"

Liang Xiu looked at the old man opposite him with scrutiny. Do beggars know so much now?

He didn't deny it, and still looked at the old beggar silently, waiting for his next words.

Xin Wu's consciousness circled around the room, regretting that she woke up at the wrong time, if she could have woken up earlier, she could interject at this time, really wanting to know what the old beggar would do!

The old beggar didn't keep them waiting too long.

His voice was low and hoarse, like the sound of a knife scraping across a grinding stone, it was indescribably harsh.

"I'm already an old bone, I won't live long, and the biggest wish in this life is to return the fallen leaves to their roots, so hey! After I show you the way, can you take me for a while and take me to the two families?" to town."

"Since you know the way, why don't you go by yourself?"

"The reason why the two towns are called ghost towns is because ordinary people can only listen to the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling outside the town, and they can't enter the town at all."

What he said is indeed reasonable, mortals cannot enter, this reason is very good.

Liang Xiu maintained a skeptical attitude, and it was only suspicion, not confirmation.

After asking the old beggar if he was afraid of heights, and getting a negative answer, Liang Xiu led his men onto the flying sword, and flew all the way along the route dictated by the old beggar.

It has been a long time, and the barren hills around the two towns have been planted with locust trees. I don’t know what the people who planted the trees thought. There are so many tree species in the world, so choosing such a name or practical application All of them are trees with supernatural effects.

The trees are shaded, and they grow very densely, so Liang Xiu stepped on the flying sword and flew over this forest many times, but he didn't find the villages and towns hidden in the tree net.

They landed at the gate of the town. According to rumors, the people of the town were all bleeding here.

There were indeed large pools of blood on the open ground, not nearly dry reddish-brown, but fresh, blood red as if it had just splashed on the ground, so even if there were no corpses at the gate of the town, these bloodstains alone were already very scary.

The old beggar who said that he was not afraid of heights and only wanted to return to his roots, fell asleep the moment Liang Xiu put him down the flying sword. At the same time, Xin Wu condensed into shape behind Liang Xiu.

The toes landed on the open space at the entrance of the town. When walking, be careful to avoid bloodstains, and make sure to step on the clean ground with every step. Carving lions and unicorns, or bixi carrying stone steles, but the stone carvings outside the two towns do not belong to any of the above.

The sculpture here is a fish, which is very common. It is the kind of carp that people often eat. It is on both sides. The shape is the moment when the chubby carp jumped out of the river. There is a splash of water under the fish. The originally lovely stone sculpture, after being splashed with blood, the fish eyeballs are shining red, which is not very easy to get along with.

Xin Wu turned her head and looked at the stone-like man who was silent when he got there.

Liang Xiu looked at a point in the sky without moving, and Xin Wu followed his gaze, only to see that there was no one but blood-stained open space, but in Liang Xiu's eyes, there were many people lying on the ground, men, women, children, all Being tied up with a rope, he found that the tied rope looked very familiar, like the rope he exchanged in the Qingyangmen Square Market, and there was a Qingyangmen logo inside the rope.

His line of sight seems to be shifted to the left, there is a monk in blue who is casting a spell, and there are no less than a dozen corpses piled up beside the monk.

The monk in blue turned his back to Liang Xiu, which made Liang Xiu feel a little familiar.

After a while, the friar in blue didn't seem to wait for what he wanted to appear, so he walked to the edge of the open space, dragged a child out of the crowd, grabbed the child's neck, and walked to the original place. He said something, but Liang Xiu couldn't hear him.

He stared at the clothes on the child's body, feeling increasingly empty in his heart.

The light flashed, and a golden carp appeared out of nowhere in the town, with a chubby body and its mouth opening and closing, as if talking.

The friar in blue threw away the child in his hand, and started fighting with the fish that appeared with his sword. The fighting was a bit loud, and the fainted people in the open space woke up one after another. They opened their mouths to ask for help, but no one came to save them.

The child in Lanyi who was thrown away crawled and hid behind the stone sculpture, praying to God with his hands clasped together.

However, the way of heaven regards everything as a humble dog, how can it care about the demands of a small human being!
The golden carp was very strong and easily stopped the monks outside the town.

But the residents of the small town outside the town also distracted it, and the blue-clothed friar also seized its opening. He turned his wrist and stopped attacking the carp. Some people died in a mess, and the corpses were incomplete.

The more the townspeople die, the less powerful the carp becomes.

When there were only a few yellow-mouthed children left in the open space, the blue-clothed monk showed a ferocious face again, and pointed his sword at the fish in the town again.

The carp wants to save the people outside, but it can't do it. No matter how powerful a fish is, it can't compare to the vicious human beings. Often it runs to the west to save people, and the monk in blue goes to kill the people in the east. The cycle goes on and on, not only did it fail to save anyone, but it also suffered more and more wounds on its body.

Then, there was the scene that Liang Xiu had seen, the child in Lan Yi was standing in a pool of blood, the carp gave him a golden bead, when the bead melted into his body, the carp had already rushed out, and the boy in blue clothes It's all over.

Only this time, he also saw the follow-up.

Before the blue-clothed cultivator died, he sent out a sound transmission for thousands of miles.
