Folk custom: At the beginning of the wedding, the bride takes off her painted skin

Zhou Yaya's physical fitness is not much better than that of ordinary people, and her only miraculous ability is the ability to control some relatively light objects.

As for Tan Tao Chang... this is even more true.

So letting the two of them fight against these magic puppets at this moment is simply risking their lives!

Zhou Yaya stood in front, wielding a stone sword in her hand to resist these puppets.

Taoist Tan hid behind her, taking the opportunity to check where the life gates of these magic puppets were, and whenever he found one.

Zhou Yaya will stir up a piece of gravel and hit its life gate, making it lose its ability to resist.

But despite this, the two of them were still bruised and swollen by these stone craftsmanship.

So when Tanxiao saw that the matter with Li Daoxuan was over, he naturally called for help immediately.

Li Daoxuan came to their side in a few steps, picked up a stone gun that fell on the ground, and shot out like a dragon.

With his joining, the pressure on Zhou Yaya and the two of them was suddenly reduced a lot.

But during the tea time, these magic puppets were finally emptied, and even if there were none, they all returned to the sarcophagus and lay down.

After passing the stone room, the three of them came to a cliff.

Entering through the stone gate on the opposite side of the cliff is the main tomb chamber. If you want to go to the other side, you have to pass two huge chains.

Zhou Yaya was the first to bear the brunt, followed by Tanxiao and Li Daoxuan.

But after they both passed by, and when Li Daoxuan climbed up the chain, the tombkeeper appeared.

He cut off the iron chain and saw that Li Daoxuan was about to fall into the endless abyss. At the critical moment, he used all the almanacs and forcibly pulled the iron chain back to its original position.

The tombkeeper didn't expect Li Daoxuan to be so strong and wanted to run away, but couldn't.

Li Daoxuan caught up with him. He said that he was the only one left in the tombkeeper clan. If he were to be killed, Li Daoxuan and the others would stop trying to get the treasure.

Li Daoxuan was the most threatened in his life, so he chopped off his dog's head. Before he died, he closed the door of the main tomb.

I thought the matter would end here, but Tanxiao said that the key to opening the main tomb chamber was to use the blood of the tombkeeper family.

So Li Daoxuan killed him, just right.

Immediately, they collected the blood of the tomb keeper, talked and laughed on the door of the main tomb, and used the blood as a talisman. Finally, they opened the door of the main tomb, and the three of them successfully entered the main tomb.

Here, they got the second door of Lou Gu Kingdom.

At the same time, buried here is the Hundred Insect Official of Lou Gu Kingdom.

The three of them got a piece of blood jade from the coffin of Bai Chongguan, and were recognized by Tanxiao. This piece of blood jade was used to control the python outside.

In the end, they negotiated to let Li Daoxuan take control, and then the three of them grabbed the treasure and went out, but Shi Ji was never seen again.

After coming out, he accidentally found that Mr. Qi had been bitten to death by a poisonous snake. In desperation, Li Daoxuan had to bury him in a hurry.

After returning home, they talked and laughed and told Li Daoxuan about the seasonal customs of the Lantern Festival and the Beginning of Spring.

And they made an appointment to continue collecting the secrets of Lou Gu Kingdom.

After going back to spend the Lantern Festival, the Beginning of Spring, the Warehouse Filling Festival, the Spring Dragon Festival, and the Flower Festival, finally on the day of the Spring Society, Tanxiao came to my door again to tell the news.

Said that he found the location of Lou Guguo's tomb again.

The three hit it off and set out again.

The three of them came to a place called Bishui Lake and talked and laughed that the tomb was at the bottom of the lake.

Li Daoxuan took the python into the water, and found that there was another strange beast at the bottom of the lake. Li Daoxuan teamed up with the python to kill it.

The python swallowed it and refined it. The python's belly bulged and began to show signs of growing legs.

In the end, Li Daoxuan successfully found the stone door of the cemetery, and the python knocked it open. The three of them rode the python into the tomb.

Here again I ran into Hu Wei and Dusk who came to rob the tomb (the World of Seasons - Chapter of Little Red Mansion mentioned that the ascetics in Dancing Girl City were also promoted to the fifth-rate grain eaters after entering the Evil Suppressing Tower. They were extremely ruthless and killed. cut decisively).

Hu Wei felt that everyone here was an ordinary person, and felt that he was good again, so he teamed up with Huang Wan to kill Li Daoxuan.

As a result, I didn't expect that Li Daoxuan had Huang Li and Python Jiao, and his own strength was also extremely strong.

In desperation, Hu Wei ran for his life again, and Li Daoxuan cut off an arm in the evening.

After some twists and turns, the three of them came to the main tomb chamber again, only to find that the small door of Lou Guguo had been taken away by a mysterious man.

After talking and laughing, they found that when they came in, there was another person following them in.

But that person was proficient in disguise and invisibility, so he never noticed it.

After mentioning it, the three of them thought about it and found that something was indeed wrong along the way.

But I didn't realize it at all at the time, and I only remembered it now.

They joked that this was also the method of the mysterious man.

There is nothing to do now, Li Daoxuan said, the mysterious man will probably show up in the next tomb, and then he will be asked to pay back his capital with interest.

Prepare well in advance.

As a result, just after he came out of the tomb, Li Daoxuan's panel prompted that the man was still waiting here, disguised in the jungle.

Li Daoxuan pretended to relieve himself and forced him out with a knife.

The man threw her out of the small door and fled. At the same time, Tanxiao also recognized her legs.

He is a character who has previously appeared on the second-level almanac world ranking list - Yue Yue, who is also a reincarnation of the middle-level ninth-level world, and is mostly a member of a ghost thief family.

After solving this matter, go back again.

The waiting time was very long this time. It was not until June 6th that I received news from Tanxia again and found the next tomb.

It is still the tomb of Lou Guguo, in a place called Guichoujian.

After arriving here, I found that the tomb had been opened. Someone had got in first, but they hadn't come out yet.

The three of them happened to enter. After entering, they found that there were many ghosts in the tomb.

There are ghosts unique to these three levels. If you believe it, there will be none. If you don't believe it, there will be. Moreover, there are many hidden weapons. If you are not careful, you will be tricked.

This tomb was also the most difficult tomb they had ever experienced, and it was still delayed until the Ghost Festival.

Here, they met another group of tomb robbers. In fact, there was only one person, Ge Yue.

She didn't get the key to the previous tomb, so she had to come here.

But she underestimated the horror of this tomb and had no way to go to the main tomb, so she had to show up to seek cooperation.

She suggested that Li Daoxuan and the three of them attract all the ghosts in the tomb, while she went to get the small door of the Lougu Kingdom in the main tomb, which was the key.

Li Daoxuan refused immediately and wanted to kill her.

Tanxiao proposed to join forces, and after some dialogue, they agreed. The three of them became four, and they continued to set off...

The flow rate of time in the Evil Suppression Tower is different from that in the outside world. The gap is very large. For example, it takes a year to reach the third floor of the Evil Suppression Tower, but only one day has passed outside.

……

at the same time.

On the top floor of the Divine Witch Tower in the Divine Witch City, Menmenwei and Qiu Wuming sat opposite each other again, but this time there was nothing to eat in front of them, only two cups of tea.

The door monster was shrouded in black robes. He played with the teacup in his hand and said softly:

"On February 2nd, the dragon raises its head...it's a good day."

After saying that, he looked at Qiu Wuming next to him meaningfully.

The latter said with a carefree smile: "There are many good days, but there is no way I can choose this day."

He didn't hide it either. After all, he knew almost everything he should know now.

Originally, Qiu Wuming had decided that on February 2nd, the ceremony for promotion to the second-rate head catcher would be held in Guiweiling Ridge, but he never thought that the people who entered the Evil Suppression Tower this time would not come out.

The few who came out occasionally only brought out one piece of news.

A man named Li Daoxuan and a man named Qixuan joined forces inside and went crazy.

However, judging from the current situation, it may not be possible to achieve promotion and breakthrough on February 2nd.

At that time, neither his direct disciple Hu Wei nor Li Daoxuan had time to come out.

"Oh? Then if this good day is finalized, City Lord Qiu will have to invite me to watch the ceremony in advance."

"This third-rate person was promoted to second-rate person... I heard that there was an auspicious sign, but I've never seen it before."

You can't see Menmenguai's face, but you can tell from his voice that he is smiling.

But Qiu Wuming felt that he was just laughing.

"We will, we will. Once the date is determined, we will definitely notify General Men as soon as possible."

Both of them were laughing, but Menmen Monster suddenly changed the topic and said: "Shaking Shadow River Hemu... It seems that the day is coming soon, right?"

When Qiu Wuming heard this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He slowly turned around and looked south.

"Soon... soon."

When the door monster heard this, he said: "I'm just curious. When the river mother revived for the first time, you clearly had the opportunity to kill her. Why didn't you do it then?"

"Even if I can do it now, the price will be much higher, right?"

When Qiu Wuming heard this, he was not in a hurry to answer. He folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen and was silent for a long time, seeming to be organizing his words, and also seemed to be thinking about how to answer the question from the monster.

"Indeed, when those sixth-level grain-eaters called me by my true name, I could indeed physically go over and kill the stowaways who came down from the ninth-level, but..."

Qiu Wuming changed the topic as he spoke, and he also turned around and turned to look at the door monster. He said with a serious face: "If I can kill her, should I kill her?"

"You might say that if I don't kill her, she will kill many innocent city residents, but... what does that have to do with me?"

Qiu Wuming spread his hands and laughed.

Sitting on the God-Witch Tower, he pointed to the sky without any scruples and said: "They sit cross-legged in the void, harvesting the flesh and blood of the world unscrupulously."

"Even if all the people in our lower world are completely dead, they are still sure that in less than a hundred years, everything will be restored to the original state."

After saying that, he shook his head, "Living in this world is the biggest joke. I can't stand such a joke, so... I will die if I die. I just want to be promoted to the first class, and then live a good life in the world of the middle and ninth class." once."

The door monster just listened and didn't rush to speak. Only when he was sure that Qiu Wuming had nothing to say, he said: "As expected of City Master Qiu, his unique vision... is truly the best in the world."

When Qiu Wuming heard these yin and yang words, he sneered without any scruples: "If you want to say that I am evil, just say so, but General Sect... let alone the second brother."

"hehe."

The door monster responded with a smile, stood up immediately, and stepped forward, and a portal appeared in front of him.

He disappeared.

Qiu Wuming was not surprised by his departure, nor did he get up to see him off.

He sat in his original position, tapping his knees with his fingers, and chanted: "The shadows are falling for three autumns. Where are the maple leaves then?"

"Where is it now... now."

……

"What? Now?!"

After hearing Zhou Xu's words, Fang Jie's eyes were shocked.

Because Zhou Xu had just told him that Hemu had recovered, and it was now. According to Fang Jie and Bai Jun's calculations, there was still at least half a month before Hemu would truly recover.

"But how could it be now?"

"I don't know."

Zhou Xu's face was equally ugly, "According to Hu Yue, there should be many corpses floating on the Yaoying River suddenly, the corpses of black dogs, and they were not bled, so the yang energy was extremely strong, thus This river mother woke up early."

"Damn it, couldn't Hu Yue bring those corpses to shore in advance?!"

Fang Jie cursed in a low voice.

But having said that, he also knew that Hu Yue was really not to blame for this.

Because ever since Hemu began to show signs of recovery, the entire Shadow River has completely lost control.

Even if it is the section that flows through Shouwu City, it stands to reason that this section of water transport should be controlled by Huyue.

But alas, no.

In the words of landscape gods, there can only be one righteous god in the Yaoying River, and that is the River Mother of the Yaoying River, and there is no other.

Even sitting aside is not enough.

"Have you contacted Huyue? Everything will proceed according to the process we discussed previously. First, move the people in the city to the caves in Kuyue Mountain."

Fang Jie said quickly: "Zhu Ye has made arrangements in advance. The lucky ones and the grain eaters below the seventh rank will all go there."

"We have prepared enough food and various supplies there beforehand, enough for them to live there for a month. If we can't get rid of Hemu in a month...then it won't matter whether they have anything to eat or not. ”

After saying that, Fang Jie stared blankly at the beams on the roof.

What he said was the result of what they had deduced countless times these days, and he also silently calculated it countless times in his mind.

But when things came to pass, he still felt that his shoulders were extremely heavy.

After all, these are the people of the entire Shouwu City, and tens of thousands of lives are all on his shoulders. It is impossible to say that there is no pressure.

'It would be great if Brother Li was here. '

Fang Jie thought in his heart.

But he can think it, but he can't say it. Anyone can say it, but he can't at this moment.

Zhou Xu also knew how Fang Jie got here during this period, so he was not surprised when he saw his expression at this moment. He just said calmly: "Everything is going on in an orderly manner."

"Hu Yue and other low-level grain eaters are already moving the people, while Bai Jun and Zhu Ye have already gone to the southern city."

After hearing this, Fang Jie wiped his face, took another deep breath, and forcibly cheered up.

"Let's go, let's go too."

"Ah."

After the two of them finished speaking, they came to the door. At this moment, the morning smoke in Hand Witch City had not yet dispersed, and the morning sun had just emerged from the horizon.

The bright spring morning means that everything still has hope.

But it happened to be this season that Hemu revived again.

The sun rose from the east, and Fang Jie's figure shone in the west. He took Zhou Xu and stepped out to the door covered by shadows.

At that time, all the people in the city were running frantically towards the north gate.

No matter how much you have said in advance, don’t worry and listen to the arrangements.

But after a few months of peaceful life, they wanted to live more than anyone else, they didn't want to die, they just wanted to run to Kuyue Mountain as quickly as possible.

Kuyue Mountain is in the north of Shouwu City, and the Yaoying River is in the south of Shouwucheng.

So when all the people were walking north, only Fang Jie and Zhou Xu were walking south.

The shadow can only cover the west, so if you want to go south, you still have to walk on your own.

But the further he walked, the more Fang Jie felt... desolate?
Because He Mu hadn't appeared yet, he saw that several people had died. Without exception, they were all trampled to death after being pushed or falling down.

But even so, no one cared. Even his relatives turned around and left after seeing that they could not be saved.

It was very real, and it made Fang Jie a little... numb.

So in order to prevent himself from becoming more numb, Fang Jie quickened his pace. He walked very fast, even with a touch of tackiness.

In just half a stick of incense, he had already crossed the city and arrived at the foot of the city wall.

At this point, his shadow was enough to reach the top of the city. He stepped forward and reached the city wall with Zhou Xu.

There were only four of them standing on the huge city wall at the moment.

Bai Jun looks better than snow in a white dress.

Zhu Ye, the head of the Zhu family, is slightly stooped, but looks younger than before.

At this moment, he was wearing a splendid robe, and even had a mahogany-carved snake-head crutch on his hand.

He was leaning on crutches with both hands, his eyes full of pride, "I never thought that I, Zhu Ye, would be standing on this wall protecting the people of this city."

Zhou Xu was wearing a simple green shirt and her hair was tied into a ponytail. She put her hands in front of her body and looked at the Yaoying River in the south expressionlessly.

As for Fang Jie, he is still wearing the black white shirt.

I don’t know how he wears it. He always likes to wear white shirts, but he can always wear white shirts that turn black in one day.

At this moment, all four of them were looking at the rolling Shadow River to the south.

The Yaoying River, which was supposed to be clear and dark green, now turned gray and black. In many places, the water seemed to be boiling and kept rolling.

If you look closely, you can still see severed hands, rotting corpses and trembling human heads in the rolling river water.

Fang Jie glanced around and found that there were more than a dozen places within the range he could see.

"What is that place?"

"Is there someone burning a boiler down there?" Zhu Ye, who was leaning on a cane with both hands, said with a smile.

Fang Jie straightened up and stretched, "Wouldn't you know if you take a look?"

After speaking, he glanced at his master Bai Jun.

The latter nodded calmly.

Fang Jie no longer had any scruples. He turned sideways and looked at his shadow on the river and smiled.

The next moment, his shadow lying flat on the river suddenly stood up and stood on the river.

It directly reached into the water with one hand and fished it out suddenly. Its huge black hands fished out countless rotting corpses.

Fang Jie frowned, "Come back."

The shadow lay down on the water and returned to its original state, without any supernatural appearance.

But then, a big hand reached out from the water and struck his shadow heavily.

Bai Jun said at the right time: "The river is pouring back."

"Zhou Xu, where is the restriction?" (End of Chapter)
