Big sister, she changed schools

Chapter 396 Remains of Zhou Jiang (8)

Soon, they arrived at Xu Cheng.

Unexpectedly, Xucheng was very lively, with many "people" in ancient costumes walking around on the streets, and the sounds of hawking and soliciting customers could be heard all the time.

Li Xiu just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Tao Zi with a gesture. At this time, a "person" holding a child passed through him and walked towards the candied haws stall behind him.

Cheng Wuchou sent a message: "Azi, what's wrong?"

Li Xiu also looked at her in confusion. After all, these "people" were ghosts, and it was not unusual for them not to be touched.

She shook her head, with a solemn expression, and sent a message to the two of them: "These ghosts are looking for opportunities to attack."

The two were stunned.

The kid in Tao Zi's sea of ​​consciousness was even more nervous than these two people: "Tao Zi, you must leave here immediately!"

"You can't leave now, please wait a moment."

The kid's scream was so loud that it shook the sea of ​​consciousness: "Are you waiting to die? The ghosts here are all thousand-year-old turtles! The killing intent on them is so strong that only you living people can't tell it!"

Tao Zi was silent, they should have thought of it earlier, even General Zhou was going crazy, let alone these brats who were ordinary people during their lifetime.

The brother and sister looked at each other and moved two steps in unison, keeping Li Xiu in the middle.

The "people" still pretended not to see them and lived the same life as they did 3000 years ago.

Until another pair of people rushed in recklessly.

Tao Zi looked over. Judging from their clothing, those people seemed to be disciples of a middle-level sect in central China.

Those disciples were even more out of control than Li Xiu. As soon as they came in, some disciples spoke up, and Cheng Wuchou didn't even have time to send a message to remind him.

"It's so real here."

As soon as this sound came out, the peddlers, those holding children, those walking, and those sitting chatting all fell silent. They all turned to look at the pedestrians, their eyes becoming increasingly black and even tending to get bigger. The street suddenly became eerie and eerie.

The pedestrian froze.

Some disciples' bodies froze, but their mouths could still move: "Hey, those three people over there, what on earth is going on?"

Tao Zi and Cheng Wuchou looked at each other and pretended not to hear the words in a tacit understanding. As the one who needed the protection of his companions, Li Xiu did not dare to speak without permission.

I don’t know whether the disciple’s courage was big or small. His voice was obviously trembling, but he still had the courage to speak: “I’m talking to you, didn’t you hear me?”

One of the "people" laughed twice and said, "You are the only ones here, where are the three of you?"

A chill rose up from Tao Zi's back, for no other reason than because this "person" was looking at the three of them when he spoke.

The "man" eating the noodles slowly stood up and said, "We don't welcome living people here."

Countless "people" flocked to them.

The pedestrians finally reacted and ran towards the city gate, but unfortunately their speed could not match those "people".

Those "people" surrounded them, and they heard only a few miserable wails and then silence.

All the "people" on the street slowly returned to their original positions, and their dilated eyes returned to normal. Except for the few corpses on the street, there was nothing else out of the ordinary.

Tao Zi's heart sank. He took out the teleportation talisman and saw that it was on, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Cheng Wuchou made a gesture to her, she nodded, and he walked towards the dead man, touched all over his body, and then took out storage rings and other things to search for them one by one.

After such a search, he stood up and shook his head.

Without the teleportation talisman, these people should have come in by themselves.

Li Xiu also saw what they meant and secretly relaxed. If he couldn't even use the teleportation talisman, then this trip would be really troublesome.

Cheng Wuchou sent a message: "Go out first and wait for Xi Jing and the others?"

Tao Zi nodded.

The three of them walked towards the city gate, but ran into an invisible barrier.Cheng Wuchou took a step back, stretched out his hand and touched it, his eyes dim.

The kid's voice sounded in her mind again: "It's over. If you can't get out, just wait to die."

Tao Zi was indifferent and didn't even bother to answer.

The three of them thought about it for a while, and Li Xiu made a gesture. Cheng Wuchou couldn't understand it, so he turned to look at Tao Zi.

Tao Zi nodded in agreement and explained by the way: "Lixiu said he would go to the inn first."

He thought for a moment and understood, and said: "This time, General Zhou invited us in. It doesn't seem strange that we have a place to stay."

The three of them walked towards the center of the city and actually found an inn. The door was tightly closed, but the plaque hanging on it read "Living Man Inn".

So direct.

Tao Zi wanted to knock on the door, but she was worried about making any noise, so she tried to push the door open directly.

At this time, Cheng Wuchou reached out to stop her, stepped forward before her and gently pushed the door open.

With a click, the door slowly opened.

Inside stood an old man with fine lines on his face. The old man said in a hoarse voice: "Dear guest, please come in."

As soon as the three of them walked in, the door closed immediately.

Cheng Wuchou became alert. The old man raised his head and glanced at him, then at Tao Zi. His tone suddenly softened and he said, "This is the Living Inn. We rest during the day and move at night. Please pay attention to the time."

Tao Zi tried to speak directly: "Old man, how much silver do I need for a day?"

The three of them waited for a while, but saw nothing strange, only the old man's answer.

"No silver required, only spiritual stones."

Li Xiu decisively took out a large bag of spiritual stones.

The old man's tone became gentler and he said: "Please come to the Tianzi room on the left side of the second floor."

Before they went upstairs, the old man's hoarse voice sounded again: "Dear guest, please rest and be sure to stay awake at night."

The three of them were stunned and no longer took these words lightly.

When they arrived upstairs, the doors of the two rooms opened slowly. Li Xiu was confused and said, "Didn't the spirit stones I gave you enough? Or do you want one more room?"

Tao Zi raised her hand to stop him, and the old man's voice happened to be heard at this moment: "Brother and sister share a room."

Li Xiu suddenly felt very insecure, but at this time, no one wanted to challenge the rules of this inn, so they could only obey them honestly.

He gave Tao Zi a depressed look and entered the innermost room.

The brother and sister walked in and closed the door.

Cheng Wuchou cast a soundproofing spell and then said: "Everything here is strange, especially the sentence about resting during the day and active at night."

Tao Zi sat on a chair and gave his guess: "Xucheng is a ghost town. Their day may be our night."

He thought for a while and agreed: "It is indeed possible, but if this is the case, what is the point of staying awake at night?"

She didn't understand either.

Cheng Wuchou cautiously gave a guess: "Do you think it's because this inn can only keep us safe during the day?"

"It's possible. In this case, it's better to rest."

The two of them lay on the bed and closed their eyes to rest, waiting for the night to come.

At the same time, a person in the inn on the second floor opened his eyes and whispered: "Brother Yue, it seems that someone is coming."
