431, Endless Train 35
After queuing for a long time, it was finally their turn. When they were about to enter the city gate, Zou Ling suddenly said: "It seems that we have not been attacked again since Gu Minglei got on the bus."
No one answered him, everyone was thinking.
"Please, please—"
In front of them were a group of white paper umbrellas that Yu Heng was very familiar with. They were all folded and standing upright, with pale shadows of ghostly heads emerging from the umbrella handles. Among that group, only one seemed to be allowed to enter the city. , the ghost umbrella took a bead and ate it, instantly turning into a young woman holding an umbrella. It screamed in surprise, rushed into the city, laughed and danced with the umbrella in its hand, spinning, spinning, spinning! As happy as a butterfly.
The residents living next to the city gate are used to it, and they only glance at it and continue to do their own things.
"Sir, what about us?"
"Oh? These things are only enough for a ghost to get in. You guys, just go back to where you came from."
Kisame made a loud noise, begging for mercy and threatening, crying for help from the only Kisame who entered, making the Taoist priests and armed policemen in the car, who were essentially human beings, scream. What made their heads buzz even more was what was to come.
The city gate guards saw that the Kisames were so noisy that they ate them all.
In the true sense of eating, the gate guard's body shape remained unchanged, his mouth opened into a black hole, and he ate all the ghost umbrellas in one bite or two. Kisame's shrill screams in fear and struggle shocked an armed policeman in the car to the point of bleeding, and Yu Heng hurriedly protected him.
"Next one." The city gate guard's mouth closed back to its original shape, he burped comfortably and waved to Yu Heng's car. Taoist Master Xunchuan said to Yu Heng, "Take good care of him." Then he drove the car away. past.
He opened the car window and asked, "We are from Damai City next door. Here are these for you." He threw a bag down and stepped on the accelerator to get in. Gu Minglei said, the more arrogant and tough you are, the city gate guards will think you are some kind of evil spirit and generally won't dare to stop you by force. This ghost town seems to have rules everywhere, but it is actually the most unruly place.
The city gate guard took the bag and saw that the driver was an old ghost who was so evil that he was frightened. As expected, he didn't dare to say anything. Such a powerful old ghost is only the driver, so how powerful must the other ghosts in the car be?
The car drove into the city gate, and suddenly it opened up. The sun was shining down from the sky, and countless noisy shouts poured into my ears. Looking around, it was clearly the most common modern bustling urban scene. Pedestrians and cars flowed like a dragon, and it was incredibly lively.
Xunchuan breathed a sigh of relief, it would be great to sneak in.
"Hey, you're back? How do you sell this car? The things outside are good, and it looks so nice. Hey little brother, how do you sell it?"
As soon as the car entered the city, it was quickly surrounded. Because of Gu Minglei's reminder, Yu Heng and the others were not frightened. He shouted out the window: "Get away! This is a good thing I just got. I haven't fucked enough yet! Walk around and don't block the road! Stop rubbing your rotten breasts against my car. Give it to me." It’s ruined!”
"Good brother, I won't rub against your car, but I can rub against you."
"Get out of here, I can't stand your naughty behavior. If you find it ticklish, I'll give you a stick."
Gu Minglei said: In the center, you can speak no matter how rough or dirty you want. If you are too polite, you will be out of place.
Zou Ling asked innocently at that time: What is rough talk?
Yu Heng held his forehead, what kind of harsh words did Gu Minglei teach Zou Ling? Why do you look so alive and well adapted to it? Everyone else in the car was frightened by Zou Ling's performance. After driving away the female ghosts blocking the road, the frivolous and vulgar temperament on Zou Ling's face disappeared the moment he turned his head, and he grinned: "How am I doing?"
Xunchuan held his ear with a look of regret on his face: "Please shut up your voice. I'll do it next time! In that case, don't learn anymore, don't be a bad example!"
"Senior Brother Xunchuan, you can't tell me, right? Don't worry, I'm just acting, I won't get too deep into the drama and be unable to extricate myself."
The city is very lively, and it has everything that human society should have. Houses, buildings, streets, shops, and markets, if you turn off the Yin and Yang Eyes, everything will be extremely bustling and lively.
"Those people don't look like ghosts at all." The armed policemen who couldn't open their Yin and Yang eyes all showed surprised expressions. Obviously, all this exceeded their psychological expectations. "Are these really ghosts? Not some lost city?"
No wonder they asked, the Taoist priests were also extremely surprised. According to the information left by Qing Sui's ancestors, there are indeed towns in the center of Guixiao, but they are just like the ancient times. No matter how prosperous they are, they are not like now, where there is a lot of traffic. Bujue is basically a developing modern city, and it feels too inconsistent.
Song Li also turned off the yin and yang eyes, and rubbed his eyes: "Anyway, everyone should be careful. No living people have been found so far. This is a ghost town. Don't eat the food here, they are all fake."
"Actually, I have always been curious, why are there such ghost towns? They are all dead, why do they still pretend to be human beings? Does this make sense?" Zou Ling lay on the car window and looked at the stalls on the roadside outside. The vegetable vendor was bargaining with the customer, but neither of them was willing to compromise, and they were red-faced and neck-deep fighting over a few cents. "Does that make sense?" he asked again.
"For them, this is meaningful." Yu Heng suddenly felt, "Otherwise, what should we do after such a long time." Therefore, there is economy, class, and politics, so a ghost town Just established like this, no matter it is five hundred years ago or five hundred years later, they are among the ghosts, avoiding the guidance of the rules of heaven and earth, forming a world of their own, giving birth to their own rules, and accumulating strength. Five hundred years later, Today, a war of aggression was launched.
Yes, it is a war of aggression. Right or wrong no longer matters, what matters is the stance. Human society is destined to be at odds with the evil forces.
According to the information left by the ancestors of Qingsui Mountain, Yu Heng and the others need to find the core of the ghost in this prosperous ghost on the surface before their disguise is exposed. That year's ghost core was gear-shaped. However, it is unknown where the core is and what kind of ghosts it will be kept in. Five hundred years ago, the generation lived on the emperor in different ghostly palaces, on a child playing with mud in a ghost town, and on a certain tree. Wait on a stone and find the gear.
For them, time is tight and the task is daunting.
If they cannot lock the location of the core of the ghost and complete the sealing plan before the National Day, then their operation on the ghost is likely to fail.
"The ghosts compete with and interact with each other." If one is missed, it will disappear after sensing the danger, and then devour those ghosts that have lost their core, and can expand hundreds of times in an instant. In this way, After only a few years of recuperation, he can come out to make trouble again.
What exactly is the ghost core?
Yu Heng saw in the information that the ancestors of Qing Suishan explained the core of ghosts as: a controlling force. However, he felt that “rules” would be a more appropriate description. The rule is to build a city in the center of the wilderness. As long as this rule is broken, the ghost city will collapse back to the period of chaos, and there will no longer be a dominant force for external aggression.
Yu Heng and the others searched almost the entire ghost town and found nothing. In order to improve efficiency, we were divided into three groups and searched without any rest. The yin and yang eyes were always open, which made all the Taoist priests feel dizzy and their eyes turned red, but they didn't, and still didn't. Wearing the camouflaged magic weapon riddled with evil spirits for a long time puts a heavy load on everyone's bodies.
Seeing that the National Day is approaching, it is impossible not to be anxious. Most of the disciples of Taoist Master Xunchuan were destroyed by the ghost king's illusion. The master also regretted the pain deeply. After waking up, he vomited out a few mouthfuls of his heart's blood. He was twenty years older and looked like he had not much time left. . How could he not hate these? He will lead the team in the Fancheng operation this time. He has made up his mind to die and will only succeed and not fail!
"In this way, let's go look for it separately." Taoist Master Xunchuan was trembling as he spoke. The evil spirits had finally entered his body. He looked at the other Taoist priests with firm eyes, "We need to go and find out about the ghost king inside the ghost city. , not only the Ghost King, but also the manor where the Ghost King lives, we have to explore!”
"clear."
As tourists from Damai City, they got news about the Ghost King of Fancheng. I heard that it was a female ghost in the form of a girl. She was very beautiful and looked like a real person.
It seems like a real person, which is very rare among ghosts.
"Oh my, Mr. Shulan's fiancé escaped from marriage a while ago. It's such a big news. Have you heard this news in Damai City?"
Facing the old female ghost who was gossiping, Yu Heng nodded: "We came to take a look just after hearing the news. After all, you, Master Shu Lan, are so beautiful and famous in our area."
The female ghost showed a proud expression: "That's for sure. Didn't your Phantom King of Damai City use the souls of many Taoist priests to propose marriage a while ago? Ouch, I saw it on the road. It looks so delicious. Ah, it’s a pity that our Lord Shulan doesn’t like you. Hey, let me tell you, you Phantom King is indeed not masculine and girly. Let me tell you, we, Lord Shulan, like that kind of strong man. Shape..."
Yu Heng listened to a lot of gossip, but when he left, he thought of Gu Minglei. He is also a fiancé, and he is also running away from marriage. What is the relationship between these and Gu Minglei?
There is no point in guessing, the most important thing now is to sneak into the manor of Ghost King Shulan.
There are only one day and twenty-one hours left before National Day.
They all withdrew from the ghost town and spent five hours recuperating outside before reopening the Yin Sha disguise pendant and entering the city again. As a result, this time we entered the city with lanterns and colorful lights everywhere, and firecrackers were hung everywhere. Yu Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly went to inquire, and found out that Lord Shu Lan was getting married, and the wedding would be held now.
He asked, "Who is the groom?"
"I don't know, but the manor is open today, and we can all go to watch the ceremony. Handsome man, will you go? I can be your female companion!"
Yu Heng thanked him and pushed away the cold and slippery hand wrapped around the female ghost. He told Taoist Master Xunchuan and others about the information he had learned. Taoist Master Xunchuan clapped his hands and said, "It took no effort at all! This wedding So timely!”
"But it's just too timely. I always feel weird. We got married just when we were about to sneak in to check there. Is it really okay? And we went out of town to rest and didn't see Gu Minglei."
"If you have any questions, you have to go. We don't have time." As soon as Xunchuan said this, everyone else fell silent, and the plan was launched as usual. They followed the others to the manor. The manor looked very majestic from a distance, with lush forests. It is surrounded by greenery, and when you enter, you can see the carved railings, painted buildings and pavilions, which are very beautiful and exquisite.
"Isn't this the Daqing Palace?" Zou Ling exclaimed in surprise.
A male ghost next to him said: "Yes, I heard that it was built after the one outside called Daqing Palace. Everything outside is good, even the houses are beautiful."
Zou Ling: "..."
The wedding ceremony hasn't even started yet, and countless ghosts are crowding in this fake Daqing Palace, eating delicacies they can't usually eat. Yu Heng took a look at it with his yin and yang eyes and found that these delicacies were really "delicacies".
Torn souls, soups made from corpses, snacks and drinks, melon and fruit platters...
It was indeed delicious. Yu Heng and others stood far away, feeling really uncomfortable.
"Let's disperse first and check the manor. Pay attention to safety and not to be exposed." Taoist priest Xunchuan warned: "If there is any problem, run away first. Be sure to pay attention to safety."
After checking hurriedly and nervously and carefully, nothing was found. At this time, the wedding ceremony finally started. First, the fireworks burst into bloom, making the manor as beautiful as a fairyland. The graceful dancers spread flowers to clear the way in front of them. Yu Heng saw the legendary ghost king Shulan for the first time, and the groom holding its hand and walking from the end of the red carpet.
The groom's gaze accurately fell on him through the crowd, and he smiled at him. Yu Heng's pupils shrank, and the hairs all over his body stood up.
