king of black mist.

Chapter 401 Farewell to Life and Death
After a brief silence, Della winked at several waitresses hiding in the bar, signaling them to take down the kettle.

Then, amidst the squealing of the kettle, she walked aggressively towards the child at the door.

Holding the hem of the skirt with both hands, he kicked his head out of the door with a bang, and then turned around suddenly and walked towards the bar.

"If you want to come in, come in and close the door for me!"

The kettle was finally taken down, and the atmosphere in the tavern melted slightly, and the flames that burned the corpses on the ground also disappeared.

Everyone lifted up the table and chairs, while half complaining and half earnestly calling for the owner of the tavern to compensate for the loss just now, they started chatting again.

"Ouch~" Andy pinched his throat.

"Brother Andy, what's wrong with you?" Tully asked curiously.

Andy pinched his neck with his left hand, picked up a glass with his right hand, and stared at the water in the glass with despair: "It's fine if you step on horse manure. If there is a human head, it's still a man's head."

"The head of a man who hasn't bathed in half a month." Another soldier of the shadow team picked up the kettle, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it down.

"Yate—you bastard, I'm really going to throw up!" Andy put on a face, making Tully giggle.

The girl's laughter made Andy more energetic, and he kept describing the oily hair of the man who hadn't bathed for half a month, and how wonderful the oily hair was wrapped in snow, which made Tully complain again and again, and couldn't drink the water.

A group of children walked into the tavern. Relying on the strength of the crowd, they drove away a table close to the fireplace and occupied one of the warmest places in the tavern.

The old man poured water for Li Changzhou, and at the same time glanced at the child calmly.

Li Changzhou nodded silently.

Old men, children, and women all gather in this weird tavern that uses guests' kettles on a snowy night. Not to mention experienced players, even ordinary people will pay attention.

Just when the atmosphere became lively again.

squeak--

The door was slowly pushed open!

A shoulder pressed in through the crack of the door.

The cold wind was biting, whipping the body that had just warmed up, and everyone shrank their shoulders in unison.

"Damn it!" One after another, this time even Della couldn't help cursing.

This time there was only one person, up and down, dressed invulnerable to the wind and snow, with a kerosene lamp in his hand.

Amidst the loud "welcome" (swearing), the visitor closed the door with his shoulders again, and picked a table closest to the fireplace without conflicting with the first comer.

Coincidentally, if Li Changzhou and the others were sitting on the black side of the chess position, then this person was sitting on the red side's position, forming a perfect symmetry.

Della walked up to the man.

"Dining? Staying in a hotel?"

The visitor nodded.

"Can I borrow the fire?"

The visitor nodded again.

"12 yuan for solid ice."

Because of the cold, the visitor slowly took out a handful of solid ice from the animal bag, put it on the table, counted it with his eyes, and then dialed out 12 yuan with one finger.

"Melly! Serve this table a pot of horse bone soup first, so that my guests don't freeze to death!" Della shouted, and quickly accepted the 12 yuan ice, and dropped a house number.

Everyone, soldiers, children, old men, including Li Changzhou, all looked at the person who came.

Walking alone, thin body, ignorant of the market, rich in money.
Everyone - fat sheep?
The old man—a trap?
Li Changzhou - Yang Qinglan?

The atmosphere became weird.

"Captain," the old man frowned and said in a low voice, "the situation is not right, it's best not to stay overnight today, and use the fire to continue."

"Stop joking, old man!" Andy gnawed on a piece of horse meat, "You want us to give up our lives and go out and freeze to death?"

"Fool! You are giving up your life by staying here!" the old man cursed.

"Of course I know that something is wrong with these people, but we have a captain, who is the most dangerous here." Andy laughed slyly.

The wrinkles on the old man's forehead doubled. Although the other four people in the team didn't speak, their expressions showed that they didn't want to go out. It was too cold outside.

"Captain?" The old man looked at Li Changzhou, now only orders can make everyone act.

In dungeons, danger cannot be avoided.

The last time Li Changzhou practiced in Journey to the West for six years, the premise was that he survived in the hands of the queen mothers—the two queen mothers, although this is their guess, but according to the rule of equal risk and opportunity in the value game, there is a high probability that it is true of.

It may be risky to stay, but if you choose to avoid it, it may not be impossible to go out.

What's more, it was really cold outside, and the old man was getting old. If anyone among the seven people would be frozen to death, he would be the first one.

"Everyone sleeps in the same room tonight, two groups take turns to watch the night, the old man and Tali rest." Li Changzhou said.

"No problem, boss!" Andy replied with a hippie smile, and raised his eyebrows at the old man.

The old man ignored the boy, frowned and said, "You can stay, but I will keep watch at night."

"Old man, this team needs me as well as you. There are so many things you have to worry about. This night is not bad." Li Changzhou tore off the horse meat, dipped it in unknown dry ingredients, ate it slowly, and looked at it. The lone traveler on the opposite side.

"Long live the boss!" Andy passed the cup to the middle.

"Long live the boss!" Yate and others toasted with boiled snow water.

Even after entering the tavern, the lone traveler still wrapped himself tightly, although his eyes were exposed, but his head was lowered.

A little meat is eaten, and the lips are completely covered while eating the meat.

On the side, the mist of horse bone soup in the kettle was always lingering on her face.

He was about the same height as Yang Qinglan, but his figure couldn't be confirmed because of his clothes.

"Cough! Cough!" Li Changzhou coughed twice.

"Honey, are you choking?" Della heard the sound of coughing and walked over, she twisted her slender waist and sat down with her plump butt rubbing against Li Changzhou.

"Della!" shouted the warrior at the other table, "Call me husband, a piece of solid ice!"

Della raised her eyebrows with anger on her face: "Ten yuan!"

"Up to two yuan!" The bidder was another person.

Everyone laughed, and with the addition of the beautiful tavern owner, the atmosphere became more active.

Della was also willing to accompany them. When these soldiers were in a good mood, their appetites improved. She didn't need to call her husband to make money by selling horse meat.

So, she sat beside Li Changzhou, laughing and cursing with the soldiers. All the soldiers she scolded laughed like kisses, and they were extremely proud.

Not to mention Andy, Yeter and other young people, the old man said a few words.

Since he couldn't leave, Li Changzhou arranged for everyone to sleep in another room. He also put the danger aside and had fun in time - on the way back, if he came to this tavern again, it might be his dead body.

"Little girl, stay with me tonight, 20 yuan ice." The child who kicked his head like a ball before said.

"You? Is the hair all grown? Take it off and show me, and we'll talk about the price when it grows!"

"Tutuotuo!" the others shouted.

The child sneered, jumped onto the table on the spot, and took off his pants.

"Hahaha!" The crowd burst into laughter.

"My god!" Andy slapped the table and laughed, tears streaming down his face, "I've never seen such a small one!"

Tully was holding back a laugh, too.

Amidst the laughter, Delala said loudly: "I don't want to breastfeed!"

The next moment, she roared and shouted, "Don't pee in my shop!"

The laughter grew louder, and the room seemed to shake.

Even the kid's teammates were laughing, they didn't seem to know each other before, but walked together halfway.

There were only two people in the tavern who did not blend into the atmosphere, Li Changzhou and the lone traveler.

Li Changzhou looked at the lone traveler. The lone traveler kept his head down, indifferent to the bustle, eating horse meat like a caterpillar eating leaves.

'Is it Yang Qinglan? He guessed from the bottom of his heart, and didn't dare to go up to test.

If not, then he must be a master—from the player's experience, he would not believe that someone is so stupid as to commit suicide by walking alone and revealing his fortune.

Now he still doesn't know anything about the 'great power', so he acted rashly. If the opponent wasn't Yang Qinglan, he wouldn't know how he died.

"Where am I so young?!" The child became angry with embarrassment.

A big man with tattoos on his face stood up: "Here, here, here is small!"

Like teasing an earthworm, he teased the child with his hands.

Amid the roar of laughter, the child's face turned red and hot.

"Angry! He's angry!"

"Why are you angry? You're shy!"

"Hahaha!"

The child stared at the big man, raised a childish finger, pointed at him suddenly, and let out a very sharp voice:

"Life-death-never-farewell-"

The bright green light flashed, dyeing everything.

Seen from the outside, the tavern, which was originally soaked in orange fire, suddenly turned into a haunted house with holes in green light.

When the green light disappeared, the big man fell to the ground stiffly with a thud, his complexion pale like a sculpture.

In the fireplace, the bright yellow flame flickered tentatively. After confirming that it was safe, the light was released again, and there was no sound in the tavern.

After a long time, the voice trembled and said:

"Great, great power!"

"Aren't you young? Still laughing or not!" The child pointed at everyone, and the person who was pointed fell down in horror, and hid under the table with hands and feet.

Amidst the panicked screams, the old man grabbed Andy and Tully, and before he could point his fingers, he was about to slam into the bottom of the table.

At this time, Li Changzhou got up, kicked out, and with a bang, the table rolled up and turned into a dam, trying to stop the terrible green light.

The seven of them hid behind the table, and Tully breathed heavily, her expression so tense that she almost lost her mind.

When the sound of moving the tables and chairs ended, only the child was left standing on the table in the room.

The sound of tense breathing and anxious swallowing came one after another. Everyone was like a field mouse hiding in a cave, and the child was a goshawk hunting on the top of a tree!
With his gaze, everyone's internal organs would twitch!
None of this group of warrior hunters who could fight against the dead dared to resist at this time.

very scary.

Li Changzhou couldn't help but change color.

Killing a person with one finger is nothing. If mana is still there, he can destroy a city with one finger.

In that bright green light, there is a strange yet familiar force, or a rule - whoever meets must be killed, and whoever sees must be killed.

It seems that the power is not great, and the attack range is small. Once hit by the green light, the living body will undoubtedly die, without any accidents!

After a long time, Della said slowly, "Okay, okay, the night is getting dark, this is the end of chatting, everyone go to bed."

Through the wooden cracks of the dining table, Li Changzhou saw the child slowly put down his hands, and the violent chest heaving gradually subsided.

The child lifted his pants and kicked the soldier who came with him: "Go!"

"Yes, my lord!" Those soldiers nearly prostrated themselves.

Judging by their expressions and postures, they were pretending not to know each other before, and they were originally the child's subordinates!

The sound of the wooden stairs being trampled sounded and then disappeared. At this time, there was the sound of moving tables and chairs in the lobby. It was very soft and slow, for fear of disturbing a hair on the ground.

Everyone poked their heads out from under the table, put down the stools they were protecting from, and removed the kettles that covered their faces.

"Unlucky! I give up this exploration!"

"What are you afraid of! I want to continue!"

"You don't want to die?"

"Even the holders of great power have come, it seems that the rumors are true this time!"

In the tavern, everyone whispered.

"Okay, let me go upstairs to rest!" Della shouted standing in the middle of the lobby.

"Listen! Don't fight in my store! Don't leave your room at dawn! There is only one light in each room, fools who want to be killed by the ice soul, just try!"

"In 5 minutes, I will turn off the fireplace on the first floor!"

Everyone started to pack their things, left the first floor one by one, and went to the bedrooms on the second floor.

Li Changzhou saw Della instructing the tavern maid to put away the kettles of the dead soldiers. Tomorrow, he might see them on the fireplace.

If these people came on horseback, horse meat would also appear on the dinner plate.

Li Changzhou counted the time in his heart, and glanced at the lone traveler from the corner of his eye. The other person moved in an orderly manner, and he walked to the stairs in 4 minutes.

He followed the other party with people.

The second floor is a long corridor, the rooms are distributed on both sides, and it is completely dark. The kerosene lamp in the tenant's hand is like a candle floating in the Black Sea. Only tiny lights can be seen, and no one can be seen.

When he was about to walk out of the stairs and step onto the corridor.

"Cough cough." The lone traveler coughed lightly as if he was sick.

Li Changzhou slightly raised his eyelids, then put them down calmly.

The shadow team asked for three rooms, and Andy and Shi Quan, who had led Li Changzhou's horse before, quickly brought over the bedding and kerosene lamps from the other two rooms.

Seven people crowded into a room.

Not to mention sleeping seven people, two people lying on the bed, as long as one person turns over, the other person must turn over, this is still the case with Tully.

If Tully is replaced by a male, both of them can only sleep sideways.

The old man made arrangements in a low voice: "Boss and Tully sleep on the bed, me, Andy, and Baz sleep on the floor, Stone Fist and Yate, you stay on guard until midnight, don't open the door if there is any movement outside, and call us immediately if there is any situation."

Tully looked at Li Changzhou with some shyness.

"Go to sleep first." Li Changzhou said to her.

".Um."

Everyone didn't take off their clothes, and directly covered their bodies with quilts. The old man's snoring sounded first, so loud that it shook the ceiling.

"Oh." Andy, who was next to the old man, put his hands behind his head, and sighed almost in despair.

Tully tossed and turned on the bed too.

But after a while, exhaustion overcame the noise, and all the people lying down fell asleep.

After waiting for another half an hour, Li Changzhou stood up and whispered to Shiquan and Yeter, "I'll go out for a while."

Shi Quan got up subconsciously.

"You stay here, I'll be back soon!" Li Changzhou ordered.

Because there are three rooms open, there are three kerosene lamps in the house, he picked up one, gently opened the door, and merged into the dark night.

After the captain went out, Stone Fist and Yeter became tense at the same time, holding the weapons on their knees tightly.

The corridor was pitch black. In order to confirm how dark it was, Li Changzhou raised his hand and tried it—unless he put his hand within five centimeters of the kerosene lamp, he really couldn't see his fingers.

When Della threw the key on the Lone Traveler's table, he memorized the other party's house number, and at this moment he raised the kerosene lamp and looked from room to room.

In the sticky darkness, he looked at the blurred silhouette of the door, like death looking for the dead.

squeak~~
The sound of something heavy on the stairs!

Matter darker than darkness swept up, tightly wrapped Li Changzhou and the kerosene lamp, and completely merged into the night.

In the darkness, the black matter parted slightly, revealing the pupil of Li Changzhou's dark right eye, which stared at the stairs without any emotion.

The fireplace on the first floor had already been extinguished, and it looked like a deep black sea from the stairs.

squeak!squeak!squeak!
Step by step, someone came up.

I could only hear footsteps getting closer, but I couldn't see anything in my field of vision.

Squeak~, the approaching footsteps finally disappeared, and after walking all the stairs, the other party has come to the corridor on the second floor!

Li Changzhou kept his composure and visualized "The Thunder Eye of the Nine Heavens". After two attempts, the robbery clouds began to roll in his mind, and the purple lightning dragons were like a dragon in the robbery clouds.

boom!
The thunder struck the lightning, and the purple flood dragon rushed out of Jieyun and smashed into his right eye.

There was a faint purple light flashing past the right eye, which seemed to be just an illusion.

Li Changzhou stopped breathing!
There is a pair of eyes, which are firmly attached to his right eye!
