Chapter 1371 Ghost Street
As night falls, countless lights are lit up in the Ice and Snow City. Looking down from the sky, there is also a beautiful feeling of being as bright as the Milky Way. However, because the weather was too cold, no pedestrians could be seen walking on the streets and alleys when it was dark. Occasionally someone walks, but it is also in a hurry, and I don't know what kind of emergency they encountered.
A young man came out of a clothing store, wearing a thick padded jacket and a black hood on his head, with only a pair of eyes exposed from head to toe.
The owner of the clothing store stood at the door and waved at the young man: "Friend, next time you come to Ice and Snow City, remember to come and drink with me."
The young man didn't look back, he just waved his hand and walked away in a blink of an eye.
This young man was Ning Tao who paid a cent to hitchhike back to Ice and Snow City. After seeing off Shenzhou, Ci Xin and Song Qingyin, he followed the owner of the clothing store back to the clothing store, bought the cotton-padded jacket he was wearing, and returned to the clothing store. Had some drinks with the boss and didn't go out until dark.
Considering that the weird things that happened in Ice and Snow City are very likely to be related to the goddess of wisdom Shemea, he has to be careful. The reason why he chose to act at night was because the fairy catcher couldn't move at night. Even if the goddess of wisdom Himia came down, he would not be afraid of her without the help of the fairy catcher.
It snowed suddenly in the sky, and the snowflakes like goose feathers fell down one after another, and the street lights on the street became dimmer. In this kind of weather, for ordinary people, it is invisible from a few meters away.
Such weather is suitable for doing some secret things.
Ning Tao continued to walk in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Could that Wu Sheng have already been controlled by the Goddess of Wisdom, Shemia? I'm going to go into his head later to see what happened to him." Ning Tao was thinking about his plan as he walked.
The City Lord's Mansion is getting closer.
Suddenly there was the sound of neat footsteps in the wind and snow.
Only the march of the army can be so neat.
Ning Tao's feet touched the ground lightly, leaving no traces on the snow, but he had already flown onto the roof of a house on the street.
As soon as he climbed down from the roof and shielded his breath, a group of city guards with hundreds of people passed through the street in front of the house. Those city guards were all wearing white fairy armor, holding battle axes and shields, and they all looked mighty.
The army of Ice and Snow City did not participate in the war between the Buri Dynasty and the Kingdom of Heaven and the Nanwu Swamp, and Ning Tao knew very little about the city.
Right now, this is the first time I have seen an army of 100 people in Ice Snow City. As far as he observed at a glance, the strength, equipment, and aura of these immortal martial arts were all very good, not inferior to Zhi Xian'er's Divine Crane Squad at all.
The leader of the team was an immortal. He walked beside the team and lectured: "Cheer up, all of you, all of you. Haven't you eaten yet? Tell me, who are you!"
One by one, the immortal warriors shouted loudly: "We are Frost Warriors! Our mission is to defend the Ice and Snow City—haha!"
This is obviously a slogan they often use, and the last roar is even more domineering. If it is on the battlefield, it may also have the effect of boosting morale and deterring the enemy.
Of course, this is only for Xianwu of the same level. If it is against the gods, not to mention slogans and roars to boost morale, even fighting chicken blood is useless.
The immortal who led the team said again: "The city lord has ordered that some suspicious people may have sneaked into the Ice and Snow City in the near future, plotting to do something wrong. Keep your eyes open and don't miss any suspicious person!"
"Hoha!" Hundreds of Frost Warriors roared again.
Ning Tao secretly said in his heart: "Suspicious person? Could it be me? If it was me, then Wu Sheng, the lord of Ice and Snow City, might really have something to do with the matter in front of him."
who is he?
He is the king of Mortal Immortal Land. He used to be the Immortal King, but now he is the God King.
That Wu Sheng knew he would come, so instead of arranging for people to welcome him, he imposed martial law on the whole city. Doesn't this make it clear that he, the god-king, is not the king?
Ning Tao didn't really care much about this, but the mysterious sand of death appeared in the minds of hundreds of thousands of people in the Ice and Snow City. If this matter had something to do with Wu Sheng, then he really deserved to die.
The hundred-man patrol was gone in a blink of an eye.
Ning Tao got down from the roof and continued to sneak towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the way, he encountered two teams of Frost Warrior patrols, but this obstacle did not exist for him at all, he avoided it easily, and then came to the center of Ice and Snow City, where Wu Sheng's City Lord's Mansion is in the center In the urban area, at the point where several streets meet.
Entering the central city, Ning Tao felt something was wrong.
There is not even a single light in the huge urban area, and there is no pedestrian on the street, and there is no other sound except the sound of wind and snow. This place is like a place where all people have died.
Ning Tao walked against the wind and flew towards the City Lord's Mansion without touching the ground, while observing the surrounding situation with his divine eyes.
There was no one in the houses on both sides of the street, to be precise, there was no living person. Judging from the features of the dead air he saw with his divine eyes, most of the houses were filled with people, but none of them were alive. The immortals in the central city were all dead.
Ning Tao couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart. He stopped in front of a house, then shook the door open and walked in.
The room was quiet, and through the main room, he came to a bedroom.
There are two immortals lying in the bedroom, a man and a woman, both of them look young, they seem to be a couple.
The young couple had already died, but the death was not normal at all. The couple's skin was dark and shiny, and they were dead.
Ning Tao came to the bedside and reached out to the male host's forehead. The tentacles were icy cold, and the dead breath from the corpse crawled up his hands like poisonous insects, trying to get into his body.
Ning Tao ignored it directly, and with a movement of his divine sense, a trace of the power of good fortune got into the head of the male host.
The scene in the male master's brain appeared in his mind.
It was a dead brain without any thought activity. The brain cells that were supposed to be white also turned pitch black, like coal particles.
In the end, his divine sense once again came to the sand of death, and this sight surprised him immediately.
That grain of sand of death is like a seed, it takes root in the brain of the male host, takes root and sprouts, some black energy roots have spread into the brain of the male host, and it also has a slightly cracked sign.
Is it really a seed?
Ning Tao's spiritual thoughts invaded into the cracks in the grain of death sand.
But before his divine sense could enter the crack and take a peek inside, the micro-carved runes on the sand of death suddenly lit up. A powerful death energy rushed towards him like a poisonous snake. At the same time, the host lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes. There was no white in the eyes, just two black eyeballs, exuding horror. The divine light of man!
"Fake corpse?" Ning Tao snorted coldly, and his divine sense drove that ray of good fortune to lock the grain of death sand, and pulled it out of the male master's brain alive.
The plucked sand of death carried its energy roots, and the micro-engraved runes shone with a divine golden light. It was imprisoned in the void by Ning Tao's power of creation, and it kept struggling, trying to return to its host's body.
With a movement of Ning Tao's divine sense, another ray of good fortune flew out, and plunged into the crack of the sand of death.
A strange scene emerged in Ning Tao's mind.
The soul of the hero is imprisoned in the sand of death, and he is fused with the runes micro-engraved on the sand of death. He struggled, but he couldn't get rid of the rune that wanted to refine him. The inner space of the sand of death is full of his resentment and hatred, as well as death energy.
The male master's body is like a nutritious soil, from birth to death, constantly providing death energy to the sand of death. The soul of the hero is the nutritious soil of the mysterious rune carved on the sand of death. The rune devours the soul of the hero, lights up itself, and then evolves into a rune with a soul!
Ning Tao suddenly remembered what he saw in the brain tissue of the two rock gods. The souls of many gods were imprisoned in the brain tissue like a golden soup, and they were all refined into runes.
At that time, he couldn't figure out what was going on, but now he finally understood the origin of those runes!
The gods of Shenshan fell, and the souls of the gods did not go to the Wuling Hall to drink and sing, but were refined into runes by the sand of death!
Of course, the sand of death for refining the souls of the gods would not be the ordinary sand of death in front of him, it should be a higher-level sand of death, that is, the golden soup-like substance he obtained from the heads of the two rock gods !
After he obtained the two lumps of golden soup from the heads of the two rock gods, those two lumps have been bothering him, and he couldn't decipher it, but he didn't expect an ordinary corpse to help him solve it. Haunting his secret!
Sometimes the truth is actually in an obscure corner, wearing an ordinary coat.
The sand of death suspended in the void is still struggling, and the body of the male master lying on the bed is also trembling, as if he will get up from the bed and bite someone at any time.
"I will save you." Ning Tao stretched out his hands, pinched the grain of death sand with his thumb and forefinger, and squeezed hard.
The sand of death broke and turned into a little powder, and the runes that had been lit also disappeared. A ray of soul energy flew around Ning Tao, and then disappeared.
Ning Tao's palm dropped a ball of divine fire, and the host's body instantly turned to ashes and disappeared completely.
At this moment, the hostess who was lying on a bed suddenly opened her eyes, and the eyes that were as black as ink released a stunning divine light. Ning Tao is a god, but she was not afraid at all. The next second she opened her eyes, she stretched out her hands to pinch Ning Tao's neck.
Ning Tao slapped it with a slap, and the divine fire burned, and the hostess' body turned into a cloud of ashes.
He opened his mouth and blew, revealing a grain of death sand, the energy roots wriggled, as if they were looking for the host's body,
He pressed down with one finger.
This sand of death was also crushed.
He exited the house of the couple, and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion against the wind and snow.
There was not a single light in the City Lord's Mansion, and it was shrouded in darkness, like a castle of ghosts.
