Youjia Inn
Chapter 46
Meicheng is located at the junction of Liangzhou and Tongzhou. It has a wide terrain and is surrounded by the Lanjiang River. It has been prosperous since ancient times, and it is located in a dangerous place.
900 years ago, the feudal lords ruled all over the country, and wars broke out everywhere.Legend has it that the Red Turban Army and the Southern Army fought in Lanjiang, resulting in over one million casualties.
In just a few days, millions of lives were filled in the Lanjiang River, causing a bloody wave.
After the war, dark clouds overwhelmed the city, and without the light of day, the floating corpses lingered on the river for several days. Crying and killing could be heard from the river every night, and the Lanjiang River turned from clear green water to turbid black water.
Until the first sunny day after January, the sun shredded the haze, and the floating corpses dispersed. Everything was on the right track, and people began a new round of self-cultivation. No ghosts were heard crying at night, but this river Bishui never went back.
"No, there is Meicheng in front of you. Look at the water. It's black. Let me tell you. In Meicheng, don't buy local fish. Don't look at the fish fat. Haha, you might eat it. grown up."
The boatman hooked a bamboo pole to a wooden stake in the water, and quickly tied a rope half the thickness of his wrist to the wooden stake.The boat touched the shore lightly and stopped firmly.
"I know that you country folks like to exaggerate, how can this water be so evil, I see, I see, it's not black so vomit, vomit."
After all, Wang Xue couldn't hold back the desire to vomit up from his stomach, and lay down on the side of the boat like a collapse, vomited two big mouthfuls of viscous acid water, a few obese fish thought there was something to eat, and swam up with their heads and tails wagging , swallowed a few mouthfuls of unknown liquid.
Wang Xue knew that no matter whether the fish was edible or not, he would never touch it anyway.
After wiping his mouth, Wang Xue continued: "Isn't it darker and darker than ordinary water? You see, the fish are alive and well. If there are really millions of souls, it should be vomit. There is nothing. .”
"Brother, alas, the old man is not blowing, but the water was as black as ink a few days ago, and it has become a little cleaner these days."
"I said, you, it's okay to make up legends to scare children, but millions of people will die, that, that."
"Okay, you don't have to say a few words." God of War handed the boatman a small piece of silver. "There is a boatman."
"Thank you, guest officer, thank you, guest officer." The boatman took the money with a smile on his face, stuffed it into the cloth pocket on his waist and put it away, and then said, "Guest officer, you should be careful when you go to Meicheng, I don't know what's going on. , this Meicheng has been very spooky recently, people have never come out after entering.”
"Thank you for the boatman's reminder." God of War looked at the lingering black air around the enthusiastic boatman again, and couldn't help but said, "Boatman, business in Meicheng is not easy, so go home while it's still early go."
"Tsk, sir, do you also think that something is wrong on the Lanjiang River? I think so." The boatman rubbed a layer of goosebumps on his body, "It's cold and cold."
"If there are conditions, the boatman should not take the ferry on the Lanjiang these days."
"Okay. I also think it's time to rest. My head hurts a little these two days."
"Drink some water boiled with grapefruit leaves, and it will almost heal."
"I would like to borrow your good words. Guest officer, go slowly."
Holding up the vomit with one hand until he was lying on the boat and kept rolling his eyes Wang Xue, God of War took a step with his long legs and landed steadily.
"A flat boat travels between lakes and seas; topping stalks, couple gulls and herons." The boatman shouted an unknown song, and with a bamboo pole, the boat broke through the black water, swaying layers of ripples, and slowly sailed to the distance.
Wang Xue, who stepped on the rocky ground, finally came back to life: "Oh, my mother, this place is so damned, it really killed a god, next time I will definitely not take a boat."
God of War looked at Wang Xue, who was still a little floating when he was walking, and said mockingly, "If you can get rid of the ghost world in Meicheng, then I miss you, and you can fly when you go back next time."
"Cut, how can I not be able to handle it." Wang Xue put his hands on his hips and laughed three times, "Isn't it just a small plum city, even if there are thousand-year-old ghosts in it, can they escape from the palm of me, the King of Hades?"
"Heh, from the moment we entered the barrier, your mana and I have been suppressed, just like ordinary people." God of War poured cold water on Wang Xue in time.
"Uh, uh, haha, don't you still have your big brother with explosive combat power? Even if your magic power is blocked, you are still the God of War who can kill the world." Brother Wang Xue went to pat the God of War's chest, and stopped halfway through. Instead of patting the shoulder.
"Heh." God of War glanced coldly.Wang Xue smiled and pretended to be slapping ashes, took two more slaps, and stopped.
"By the way, God of War, what's your name? We went inside. You and I must have a normal address so as not to attract attention." Wang Xue asked with a smile.
"Su Qingchen." God of War floated out three words lightly.
"Puff." Wang Xue didn't frown, and was happy.
"What? There is a problem." God of War raised his eyebrows, showing his vigor.
"No, no, such a dusty name is worthy of such a dusty person. Isn't it Miss Su, Su Meiren?" Wang Xue desperately began to tease the God of War with a dark face in front of him.
There was a sound of breaking through the air.
This time Wang Xue was smart, he knew God of War would make a move, he took a side step, and slipped away like a loach.
"La bla bla bla—" Wang Xue stuck out his tongue and made a face at God of War.
"Heh, childish." Ignoring Wang Xue's provocation, God of War walked towards the city gate with his long legs.
Wang Xue, who stayed behind, shrugged and followed God of War.
The city wall of Meicheng is towering, the city gate is wide open, and there is a team of guards standing at the gate of the city, standing straight and solemn.
No one entered the city, and no one left the city. Except for this point, everything looked the same as a normal city-state.
The two walked forward side by side.As expected, the two guards waved their spears and crossed in front of them, blocking their way.
"The two of you have thought it over. Now that Meicheng is in and out, if you want to come out, you have to wait until the younger sister of the ninth city master gets married."
"Brother, what's the reason? Your old sister of the city lord is married and won't be let out?" Wang Xue asked.
A guard said impatiently, "Whether love comes or not, get out!"
Another guard nudged the previous soldier's arm and gave him a wink.
The first guard immediately moved his head closer, and the second soldier whispered softly: "You have a bad temper, wait a minute and don't interrupt!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this little brother stood there for two hours, and his temper was a bit off. It's like this. Our city lord is very hospitable. I also hope that my only sister's wedding can be grander. She can come to our Meicheng in the near future. It's all predestined relationship, if you have nothing to do, stay for a glass of wedding wine, if you two have other matters, we won't stay."
The big brother guard smiled, he was pretending at first glance, he was as enthusiastic as the peddler who tricked you into buying fake products.
Is there any way, if you know it is a pit, you still have to jump, who told us to come and try how deep the pit is.
"Oh...so that's the case." Wang Xue pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "Then the two of us are fine these days, so it's okay to ask for a cup of the city lord's wedding wine."
"Refreshing." The guard smiled and handed over two plaques. This time he really smiled, and the forehead tattoos piled up three times.
Wang Xue and God of War took it respectively and looked at it carefully.
The sign is the simplest wooden sign, log color, unpainted, with one or two rough spots that have not been scraped clean, tied with a red rope that is not delicate but strong enough.
The number on the card is only ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine ninety-nine and ninety-nine for Wang Xue, and ten thousand for the piece of God of War.
There is nothing strange about it, it is a piece of rough and ordinary workmanship that cannot be used in ordinary digital waist cards.
"This is?"
"It's just a waist card, which is your pass in Meicheng. You can also use it to receive wedding candy, money, wedding wine and so on on the day of the city lord's wedding. Don't lose it. If you lose it, it will be troublesome."
The guard handed over a thick booklet and a writing brush, "Both, please register your name and time when you entered the city."
Each page of the booklet is divided into five columns, each column has a corresponding name and the time of entering the city, there are all kinds of fonts, square, long, chic, rigid, and there are probably some who do not write, the names are all Goudan, Ermao and others, relied on others to write for them, and pressed a red handprint under the word.
The two registered and signed under their vertical column as promised.
The guard put away the booklet, "Please, both of you."
When the two stepped into the city, they discovered the unusualness of Meicheng.There are so many people on the street as if it was a New Year’s festival.
It stands to reason that a place with so many people should be extremely popular, but this Meicheng is just the opposite. A thick layer of Yin Qi has gathered in the sky, and even the temperature of the sun has changed. This Yin Qi is still slowly rotating. , forming a less obvious vortex.
The center of the vortex is just right in the center of Meicheng.Generally, people who live in the center of the city are either rich or expensive. This is good, the closer you are to the center, the more unlucky you are. See if the center is several degrees darker than the edge.
The most amazing thing was Wang Xue. Everyone the God of War saw in Meicheng was surrounded by black energy, no matter if it was a frail old man or a strong man, no one was spared.
The black energy on these people is obviously much stronger than that of the boatman they met before, and it cannot be solved by grapefruit leaf water. If it is not stopped, people in this city will probably die in vain within a year.Who gave birth to such a poisoned heart, asking the people of this city to die?
"At the beginning, when the two of us entered Meicheng, our mana was suppressed. I knew that this trip was dangerous. I had the mentality of not entering the tiger's den, so I wanted to go to Meicheng to find out. For the two of us, it shouldn't be a big problem to fight for a seal, at worst, it will be dishonorable.
But look at the yin energy, this trip is not to enter the tiger's den, but to step into the underworld, and it's not the one that leads to my house. "
Wang Xue smiled bitterly, "If this yin energy does not dissipate, how long does it take? This plum city will separate from the human world and form a new ghost world. Before it leaves the human world, let's go now and lead our troops to attack from the outside. !"
900 years ago, the feudal lords ruled all over the country, and wars broke out everywhere.Legend has it that the Red Turban Army and the Southern Army fought in Lanjiang, resulting in over one million casualties.
In just a few days, millions of lives were filled in the Lanjiang River, causing a bloody wave.
