"This place is weird, don't stay for a long time——"
Facing the deserted town and the strange scene, Wen Gui left in a hurry without Ye Ye's instructions.
Everyone walked south along the street.
No matter how weird the town is, just leave. It was bright now, so I wasn't afraid of ghosts.
A group of figures hurried.
On both sides of the end of the street, there are a few crooked old trees with twisted roots and scattered dead branches.
Passing under the trees, the streets stretched out unexpectedly. The houses, courtyards, and shops seemed familiar, but the deserted scene remained the same.
Everyone sped up their castration.
After a while, several old trees appeared in front of us. The gnarled roots and cracked trunks seemed to have not changed at all...
Wen Gui stopped suddenly.
Yu Ye, Qiong Shan, Guo Xuan, and Sheng Huaizi couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
"Come this way-"
Wen Gui raised his hand and waved, turning around and running towards the nearby alley.
The crowd followed closely behind.
While Yu Ye was surprised, he did not forget to look around. As his eyes flickered, the black and white light flickered in and out of his pupils...
The alley is only a few dozen feet long, leading to a forest at the foot of the hillside.
Wen Gui just walked through the alley and suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, a ghost is hitting the wall..."
Several companions stopped one after another.
The forest disappeared, and there was another street in front of me. In other words, it is a street that has just been passed. The old trees and empty shops at the street corners remained unchanged. There were only five people staring with solemn expressions on their faces.
"The so-called ghost hitting the wall is a common term, but it is actually the psychedelic technique of ghosts!"
"And being weird in broad daylight is probably not simple!"
Wen Gui, Guo Xuan, and Sheng Huaizi were experts in the immortal sect. They had already noticed the abnormality and did not want to respond in time, but they still could not get out of the town.
"There are a few wandering ghosts, what's there to be afraid of!"
Qiong Shan was from the demon clan and was not afraid of the ghosts' magic. He had not seen any ferocious zombies, so he flew up confidently and went straight to the old tree at the entrance of the village. His escape was so fast that he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Several companions were still watching, then suddenly turned back.
The disappeared Qiong Shan unexpectedly appeared on the street behind him, staring with yellow eyes, spitting bitterly, and jumped into the air. However, he could not fly more than ten feet high and fell into the sky with a "bang". He took advantage of the situation and escaped underground, only to reappear on the street. He angrily ran to the intersection where he came from. After a series of muffled sounds, he returned to the same place again and said in disbelief: "This ghost is really powerful at hitting the wall..."
"Junior Brother Yu!"
Wen Gui, Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi looked at Yu Ye.
It's not that ghosts are powerful at attacking walls, but that the entire town is the location of the formation, but it cannot be seen, touched, or attacked by force. Once the restriction is touched, it will be immediately sent back to the place where it came from. Being trapped in such a weird formation can't help but make people a little confused.
Yu Ye shook his head and signaled to be patient.
From the moment he stepped into the town, he had been secretly paying attention, but he had not found anything yet. Fortunately, there was no danger for the moment.
"Since it's a formation, there is a way out. It's still early, so you and I will look for it separately!"
Yu Ye gave an order and walked slowly along the street.
"Come on, please be careful!"
Wen Gui, Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi walked separately to shops and houses, trying to find a way out of the dilemma.
Yu Ye walked to the door of a wine shop.
The ashes under the stove were still there, as if they had just been extinguished. There were wine jars and wine bowls on the dirt-covered table, and the remaining wine was still dry.
Someone walked over, grabbed the wine jar, shook it, and stretched out his nose to smell it.
"Well, the wine is bland, I don't know how it tastes."
It was Qiong Shan. He was not good at restraining formations, so he followed Yu Ye, and his alcoholic nature was hard to change.
"Why not try a taste or two?"
Yu Ye smiled lightly.
"Ghost food, don't touch it!"
Qiong Shan hurriedly dropped the wine jar.
He has not forgotten the lesson of Wujiacun.
The two continued to look around the street.
There is nothing suspicious about the streets, shops, alleys, or courtyards. The sun has risen high, and the whole town is shrouded in cold light. And a layer of light mist filled the air more than ten feet away. Not only that, the underground is also difficult to traverse because of the accumulation of Yin energy.
Unknowingly, I came to the old tree at the entrance of the village again.
Yu Ye slowly stood still, his eyes flickering.
The three old trees looked like they had been dead for a long time. Between the cracked tree trunks and scattered branches, there are dense restrictions, and they are connected with the rocks, houses, and sky. They are like an invisible net, trapping the entire town and also trapping it. He and four companions!
If the street entrance is a forbidden portal, can the thunder and fire talisman break it? Where is the artifact Star Arrow?
It's a pity that the two silver dragons didn't wake up, otherwise they would definitely be able to break out after a rampage.
Yu Ye took a few steps back and took out a thunder and fire talisman.
"Junior Brother Yu——"
At this moment, Wen Gui's call came from the town.
Yuye didn't dare to neglect, and followed the sound of Qiongshan.
There is a large courtyard in an alley in the north of the town. Wen Gui, Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi stood guard in front of the courtyard gate, each waving with anxious expressions.
Yuye and Qiongshan arrived in a hurry.
The moment they stepped into the courtyard, the two of them were startled at the same time.
The courtyard is dozens of feet in diameter, surrounded by a tall stone wall, surrounded by old trees, and filled with gloomy air, making it appear extremely quiet. But in such a quiet place, hundreds of men, women, and children were piled up. Judging from their clothes, they were clearly mortals in the town, but they were completely lifeless and their bodies were cold, as if they were dead people.
"This is……"
Yu Ye was stunned and unbearable.
No wonder there is not a single person in town. Who wants to be here, but they are only a few hundred feet apart, and they are not aware of it. It is obvious that the Yin Qi blocks their spiritual consciousness, and it is even more creepy to see it with your own eyes.
"There are three to five hundred ordinary people, old and young. I thought they were dead, but they are still alive. Apparently their souls have been taken away. Now they are no different from dead. Not only that..."
Wen Guiyu, still in shock, breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and pointed, and continued: "Those hundreds of old and young are not piled randomly, like a formation..."
As mentioned, hundreds of people seemed to be in a mess, but they were piled up separately, with more than ten people in each group, arranged in the shape of a formation, and the heads of both young and old were pointing in the same direction. In the center of the formation are eight well platforms built of stone. It can be seen that there is thick cold mist or yin energy emitting from the well mouth.
"I don't know the purpose of the formation here, and I don't know who harmed the innocent people in the town. But Brother Guo, Brother Sheng and I concluded that the eight wells are where the formation's eyes are."
Wen Gui opened his mouth and spit out a sword light, Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi also pulled out their long swords and got ready to attack.
Yu Ye frowned and said, "How to deal with these hundreds of mortals?"
Destroy the formation eye and the formation will collapse. And hundreds of men, women, and children may not survive.
"It's not your fault or mine, so we don't care about many things!"
"The souls of the mortals in the town have been stolen, and there is no way to save them!"
"It's never too late to break the formation!"
Wen Gui, Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi insisted on taking action.
Qiong Shan couldn't help waving his sleeves, his ten fingers flashing with cold light.
Yu Ye nodded silently.
Although he couldn't bear it, he didn't know how to save hundreds of ordinary people, old and young, who had lost their souls. And if it is difficult to get out of trouble, how can we talk about compassion for others.
The four of them walked into the yard and rushed to a nearby well.
Wen Gui couldn't wait even more. Still more than ten feet away, he raised his hand and pointed, and the sword light whizzed away.
"boom--"
With a loud earthquake, half of the bluestone well platform collapsed.
Guo Xuan, Sheng Huaizi, and Qiong Shan were so powerful that they had to attack with all their strength. Unexpectedly, a burst of black gas suddenly emerged from the destroyed wellhead, and then the black gas spurted out one after another from the adjacent wellheads. It was like a rolling black cloud, covering the entire yard in the blink of an eye and spreading instantly. The town suddenly went dark and night fell...
Wen Gui quickly retracted his flying sword and froze in place with his three companions.
Yu Ye stood alone in front of the courtyard gate, which was also unexpected to him.
Destroying the formation eye is the way to break the formation. I didn't want to trigger the restriction, but accidentally opened the formation.
While everyone was in shock, the black Yin Qi was still gushing out, and hundreds of corpses suddenly moved and struggled, getting up from the ground one by one, but all of them had ferocious faces, bared teeth and claws, and rushed straight towards Wen Gui and the others.
"Oh my god..."
Even though he was well-informed and highly cultivated, he had never seen hundreds of people turn into ghosts. Wen Gui shouted and turned around and ran away.
Guo Xuan and Sheng Huaizi were about to slash with their swords, but those who rushed towards them were either white-haired old men, women, or children. The two of them looked helplessly and ran out after Wen Gui. The women, children, old and young seemed to be weak and frail, but they were surrounded by Yin Qi, behaved crazily, and then chased after her.
The sudden escape of the three people made Qiong Shan at a loss. After a little hesitation, he was already trapped in a tight siege. He couldn't help showing his fierce look, waving his hands and sweeping away. In an instant, blood and flesh spattered, and more than ten ordinary people, old and young, were torn to pieces by him.
"Old fox..."
Yu Ye couldn't help shouting, then shook his head and flew up.
After all, the old fox is a spirit fox. He has neither the compassion of the human race nor the scruples of killing his own race. Instead of forcing him to stop, it is better to try to destroy the formation.
But the old people, women and children are all crazy, like a herd of beasts that are menacing and unstoppable.
Yu Ye's figure flashed and disappeared.
The next moment, he appeared in front of the well, grabbed a thunder and fire talisman and threw it at the mouth of the well. Before the jade talisman flew into the well, it was rushed out by the spurting black air, and he hurriedly ran away to avoid it.
"boom--"
Fire flickered, thunder exploded, flesh and blood flew everywhere, ordinary people, old and young, fell to pieces again, and the remaining ones were still like ghosts and beasts...
Yu Ye steadied himself more than ten feet away, eyes wide open in anger.
He didn't want to hurt innocent people, but he still committed murder. And the person behind turning hundreds of ordinary people, old and young, into corpses is the culprit today.
Who is responsible?
Could it be another monk from Xuanming Mountain?
Yu Ye was so angry that he had no time to think about it. He jumped up into the air, and before the castration was over, he turned around and headed towards the well mouth where the black air was gushing out. The red dragon armor had covered his body, and a purple lightning roared out.
Since it was difficult for the thunder and fire talisman to hit the well mouth, he simply rushed into it at the risk of his own life. He wanted to see what kind of ghosts were hiding at the bottom of the well, how dare he set up such an evil formation.
I saw a flash of lightning flashing through the surging black mist, and a figure like a rainbow moving forward.
"Qiang——"
The moment Xingya rushed into the mouth of the well, there was a sudden sound of Jin Ge exploding.
At the same time, figures jumped out one after another from the surrounding wells...
