Above the gray fog

In his drowsy consciousness, Lin Shan felt a slight vibration, and the voice of the conversation woke him up.

He wanted to open his eyes, and repeated the action of opening his eyes many times, but failed.

He continued to try, and finally, Lin Shan felt that something was opened.

It was definitely not his eyes anyway.

He could see things outside through this thing like his eyes.

The dim light was projected from above, and the light was particularly dim here, swaying like an oil lamp.

Lin Shan's vision gradually focused, and the scene he saw was like a nightmare.

He was lying on a wide chopping board, with only a wide skeleton left on his body.

There were some blood and meat shreds on it.

Next to the chopping board, there was a pile of randomly piled pieces of meat. They used to be his flesh and blood, but now they were scattered like the residue of a slaughterhouse.

The air was filled with the smell of rusty blood.

Lin Shan struggled hard to break free from the shackles tied to his body.

After struggling for a few seconds, his head only shifted slightly.

His current state is a bit like what people often call sleep paralysis. He feels like something is pressing on his body, but no matter how hard he tries, it's like hitting cotton, and his body just won't listen to his commands.

The shift of his head allowed him to see the scene next to him.

There were many cutting boards next to him, which were like operating tables. There was a toolbox next to the bed with various knives.

There was a skeleton lying on each cutting board. The skeletons were different in size and color. There were two white bones, one black bone, and two gold bones. The shape of the skeletons was all the same human shape.

Five skeletons, all dead.

One of the white bones was covered with a terrifying aura of the dead.

Lin Shan continued to shift his head and kept scanning.

He should be in a large room now, a bit like a warehouse.

The whole warehouse was filled with a gloomy and deadly aura, and pieces of meat and blood could be seen everywhere.

Lin Shan released his perception and wanted to see farther, but found that his perception penetrated his body and could only explore within a range of one meter.

After his continuous efforts and struggles, he finally caught sight of the two creatures talking in front of him.

Under the dim light, a burly man stood in front of a chopping board that was dripping with blood. He held a heavy kitchen knife in his hand, and the blade reflected a cold light in the dim light.

He wore a black apron with spots of blood on it.

The man had a broad and strong chest, clear muscle lines, a rough face, and a beard that grew like weeds, covering most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes, which revealed an unruly wildness and chilling sharpness.

His hands were steady and powerful, and he was cutting an unknown object on the chopping board with a terrifying rhythm.

Seeing this man, Lin Shan couldn't help but feel cold in his heart. This was definitely not an existence he could afford to provoke.

Look at the man next to him.

Rubin!

He has a really dark heart.

A wave of anger spread in Lin Shan's heart.

Seeing him talking and laughing at this moment, what else did Lin Shan not understand?

The doubts that had been hidden in his heart before were also solved.

The reason why he did not find any lookouts was because Rubin did not bring him to the side of the small world.

This bastard has always been targeting him!

Hearing the sound of bones rubbing, the big man's eyes suddenly tilted and glanced at Lin Shan lying on the chopping board.

"Alive, according to the rules, you can go." His voice was very light.

Rubin also looked at Lin Shan, and saw that Lin Shan was still breathing, his face instantly became ugly.

"Bad luck!" He cursed inwardly, turned around and pushed the door, and left in one go.

Lin Shan saw that it was pitch black outside the door, without a trace of light

After Rubin went out, he merged with the darkness and disappeared.

After Rubin left, the burly man stomped on the spot for a few minutes, and then walked towards Lin Shan with a knife.

Regardless of Lin Shan's movements, he chopped a few times beside him.

Lin Shan thought the big man was going to chop him, but he found that after he chopped him, his body could move.

Lin Shan sat up suddenly.

"Where is this?"

"The flesh and blood next to it is yours. If it is not enough, get some from the table next to it." The big man pointed at the meat next to him and said something, then he ignored Lin Shan, walked to the chopping board in front of him, and continued to chop.

Lin Shan looked at the pieces of meat next to him, which were already bloody and muddy, with few intact pieces.

Under Lin Shan's gaze, the pieces of meat became like living things, climbing along his arms and covering his whole body.

Lin Shan used the origin of the strange body to repair the missing parts.

After all the pieces of meat were in place, the blood continued to grow under the nourishment of vitality until it could supply the whole body.

Since then, he has recovered as before.

He covered his body with blue as a robe.

Lin Shan walked down the chopping board, first observed left and right, and then walked straight to the big man.

He was chopping a thigh bone, a human thigh bone.

After chopping the bones into powder, he put them into a black earthenware jar, making it into real ashes.

Lin Shan watched the whole process from the side.

After he chopped the thigh bone into pieces, he took a piece of white cloth to cover the mouth of the jar, and finally tied it with a red rope.

"Put it on the counter over there for me." The big man pushed the jar to Lin Shan.

Then he walked to the counter at the back, ready to bring another skeleton to chop.

Lin Shan followed his instructions and carried the urn to the counter next to him.

There were two rows of urns on the counter, ten in each row, a total of twenty, and the one in his hand made twenty-one.

Just as he put the ashes on the third row of counters, Lin Shan heard the sound of "bang, bang, bang!" of a knife chopping bones and chopping boards.

Lin Shan ignored the sound behind him and looked at the urns carefully.

Each urn was sealed with two lines of words that Lin Shan did not recognize.

There was no difference in shape and size.

After looking for a few seconds, Lin Shan came to the side of the burly man again.

"Where is this? "Lin Shan asked. Lin Shan was not worried about his own safety at the moment.

He found that although the big man looked like a human, he was not a human, but a void creature.

After so many twists and turns, Lin Shan was not afraid of void creatures now. Void creatures that did not attack him at the first time were most likely not hostile to him.

It was really ironic. When he was on the Giant God Peak, Robin and he were both world creatures, and he even felt a little friendly to Robin.

As a result, the one he was hiding from did not mean to hurt him.

The one he approached tricked him into such a place.

It was obvious that the other party wanted his life, but for some reason he did not die.

Compared with the world creatures, void creatures can be described as pure. They all have their own pure stance. Good is good, and bad is bad.

They will not hide themselves very deeply and let others guess.

"Where is this?" Seeing that the big man ignored him, Lin Shan asked again.

"Scale 244." The big man did not stop his hand movements, but answered Lin Shan's question.

"So deep? "Lin Shan took a deep breath, the scale was 244, and he was 243 layers away from the surface of the void.

"I don't think you have any hostility towards me. Can I know what happened?" Lin Shan continued to ask.

"The creature that just escaped said that you were his prey and wanted to sell you to me. I have a rule here that I don't accept living things. Since I didn't pay, you are free." The big man wiped the knife on his apron, then shoveled up the ashes with the back of the knife and put them into the jar.

"Can I leave?"

"You can do whatever you want."

Lin Shan didn't say anything else. Even if he could leave now, he couldn't go back to the Lookout, let alone find the location of the gray fog universe.

"How to return to the surface of the void?"

"You need to upgrade to another level of life. You can't go up or down now."

"It's still the same position. "A pitch-black jar was pushed in front of Lin Shan.

The big man continued to pick up new skeletons.

Next, he quietly waited for the big man to knock all the skeletons, without saying another word.

After Lin Shan carried the last jar to the shelf, the big man appeared behind him, holding a stack of seals with words in his hand.

"Stick it on." He said.

Lin Shan imitated the seals on other urns and stuck them crosswise.

The big man watched from the side, and only turned and left after seeing Lin Shan stick all the seals on. He took off his apron and put it on one of the counters while walking.

He walked to the counter where bones were chopped, took out a large black windbreaker from the cupboard below and put it on.

"Do you want to go back? I mean, go back to the boat you were on before." The big man looked at Lin Shan and asked.

"Do you know the lookout?" Lin Shan looked strange.

"I don't know what the lookout is. If you want to go back, just help me watch the store here for a year, and after a year, you can go back. "As he said that, the big man picked up the kitchen knife on the chopping board and kept sharpening it on the grindstone next to him.

"Okay." Lin Shan nodded in agreement.

Under the premise of knowing nothing, he can only gamble on luck and rely on self-consciousness.

At this time, if he walked out directly from here, God knows where he would go.

According to Lin Shan's intuition, this big man is still a good person. In fact, he can intuitively see that if he wanted to do something to himself, he would not have untied the restraints just now.

If this big man is a creature of the world, Lin Shan may still suspect that there is a routine, but this big man is a void creature, the situation is a little different.

Although I am a little confused about the situation, since the other party promised to let me go back in a year, I can only gamble, which is better than having no way out at all.

"Well." Seeing Lin Shan agreed, the big man nodded lightly, and took out a smaller meat cutting knife from the knife rack, "This is for your self-defense. "

Lin Shan took the knife, which was narrow in front and wide in the back, half a meter long, and felt heavy in his hand.

This knife was not simple. Lin Shan had this feeling the moment he held the knife.

"You can only use this knife. Don't touch other knives." The big man buttoned up his windbreaker and pushed the door to go out.

"Is there anything I need to pay attention to?" Lin Shan called him.

The big man buttoned up the last button, "It's all here, you can sort it out yourself."

A light ball emitting faint fluorescence flew out from the big man's forehead and sank into Lin Shan's forehead.

Lin Shan closed his eyes and digested the extra information in his mind.

He roughly understood what this store was selling and what he was going to do next.

When you have nothing to do, just stay here.

In addition to this information, there is no other additional information.

There is also a special reminder, don't go out of the door unless it is necessary.

Lin Shan touched his wrist and neck.

There is no doubt that the Zhulong Ring, the storage bracelet and the storage necklace were all taken away by Rubin.

The storage necklace is okay, the things inside are not valuable to him now, but the storage bracelet is a celestial relic, and it also contains a lot of his collections, so Lin Shan still feels a little distressed.

The most important thing is the Zhulong Ring. Let’s not talk about the secrets of the Zhulong Ring for now, but the Zhulong Ring contains Si Yin.

More than a thousand years ago, Si Yin had the strength of Sequence 1. Lin Shan is not worried about her safety. If Rubin really lets Si Yin out, he will probably be the unlucky one.

"I shouldn’t have brought it with me if I had known." The Time Spear slowly emerged from Lin Shan’s palm.

"Isn’t it hidden in the flesh and blood? The special space in the body?" Lin Shan looked at the Time Spear and said a few words to himself.

After thinking about Rubin for a while, Lin Shan put the Time Spear back into his body, lay on the chopping board where he woke up at the beginning, and closed his eyes.

Feeling the rapid flow of time, finally, this urn shop welcomed the first customer.

A figure walked in slowly.

When Lin Shan heard the noise, he quickly stood up and greeted the incoming customer.

As far as he could see, there was a beautiful girl who looked like she walked out of a painting. Her face was delicate, her skin seemed to be shining, and her smooth hair was gently hanging down, like the softest starlight in the night.

However, Lin Shan's heart was stirred, and his intuition told him that the appearance of this beautiful girl was just a cover.

As Lin Shan continued to look at her, in Lin Shan's eyes, this seemingly innocent beautiful girl instantly turned into a fat and big-eared demon.

Her delicate facial features became distorted, her originally slender jaw became bloated, her playful little ears swelled into disgusting large earlobes, full of blood vessels and fat, her originally clear eyes now flashed with greed, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes piled up, like the traces of sin left by the years on her face.

Her petite body swelled into a disproportionately fat body, and the beautiful dress turned into a tattered cloak, covering the twisted flesh, unable to hide the ugliness inside.

Lin Shan blinked again, and the girl returned to her original state.

Lin Shan took a deep breath.

Asked: "Guest, what do you need?"

"World creatures?" The girl blinked, "It's not polite to keep staring at people."

Lin Shan's mouth twitched, and said, "This beautiful lady, I am offended."

"Excuse me, what do you need?"

"That's right." The girl covered her mouth and chuckled.

The occasional scene in front of her made Lin Shan a little uncomfortable.
