The outer city of Bian City has been relatively peaceful recently, but because of Qin Bai's arrival, many troubles have arisen secretly.
At the signal of the man in gray robe, various forces were waiting for the store to open, naturally wanting to test it further.
In their opinion, Qin Bai killed several demons in a row to establish his power, but in the aftermath, there was a feeling that the thunder was loud but the rain was small, and it must have been premeditated.
But when the door of the inn opened, there was still no sign of Qin Bai. There were only some small skeletons with poor cultivation inside.
The ghost people did not dare to enter the store. After all, Qin Bai's methods were too ruthless. No ghost would dare to get into trouble if he started to attack even if they disagreed.
So much so that no one came to visit the store for most of the day it opened.
Qingyou was so free that she sat in front of the arcade with her legs crossed, concentrating on playing the game.
Qin Bai handed over all the business of the store to her, and there were no performance requirements. The customers were meaningless to her, so she just concentrated on playing games.
She occupies an arcade machine, while a dozen little skeletons take turns playing one, which shows the difference in treatment.
"Cough cough cough..."
When Qingyou heard a cough, she turned her head subconsciously, and saw a white skeleton with some flesh and blood standing next to her.
Scanning her eyes, Qingyou guessed that this demon probably came from a different place in the outer city. Although the opponent's skeleton had no flesh and blood, his cultivation of four to five hundred years was obvious.
She said impatiently: "What's wrong?"
"Well, I'm looking for the shopkeeper here to do business."
The skeleton's name is Chen Wei. He came to Qin Bai's shop with the intention of testing him, but he didn't dare to turn against him.
The shop looked odd from start to finish, and the name on the plaque was unintelligible.
Arcade, why is it called this?
Behind Chen Wei is the man in gray robe. He lives at the junction of inner and outer urban areas, and he comes into contact with countless thousand-year-old demons.
As long as you can complete the tasks assigned by the gray-robed man, your cultivation can be further improved.
As for why he came, it was mainly because Zhao Gang died at the hands of Qin Bai, and the thousand-year-old demons in the outer city did not dare to throw a wrench into his arms.
Chen Wei is ready to figure out Qin Bai's purpose as soon as possible. If it is just for flesh and blood, then there is no need to care.
Because if you want to exchange flesh and blood for training resources, you have to go to the inner city, and you must establish a transaction chain with the gray-robed people.
As soon as he walked in, he felt something was wrong. The counter where the flesh and blood was originally stored had long been emptied, and instead there were ten strange iron boxes.
Chen Wei chose to go directly towards the female ghost.
Qingyou waited until the game was over, then reluctantly spoke to Chen Wei: "The shopkeeper is not here, and there is no business here."
Chen Wei couldn't figure it out. If he didn't do business, why should he open the store? Moreover, the store was specially decorated.
"Forget it, I'll come see the shopkeeper another day."
He walked towards the door, but before he could get far, Qingyou stopped him: "Wait, although we don't do business, it doesn't mean you can leave."
Qingyou's tone was a bit threatening. If she didn't complete all the orders, she might not be able to explain it to Qin Bai.
Chen Wei wanted to get Qin Bai, so he didn't plan to stay long: "I think it's better to forget it..."
Before he finished speaking, he found that he was surrounded by little skeletons, and they were ready to attack him.
Chen Wei couldn't help but find it ridiculous. Each of these demons were nothing more than the souls of young children. With his cultivation level, he could easily deal with them.
Suddenly his face became stiff, and when he saw the Yin Qi exuding from the little skeletons, he felt quite a threat in his heart.
Chen Weicai noticed that the cultivation level of the little skeletons had reached more than a hundred years, and there were even bone songs that were nearly three hundred years old.
How can it be……
He had no choice but to stop and think about ways to escape.
Gu Ge has been drinking Gui Zai's milk a lot recently, and his cultivation level has increased rapidly, and now he can barely stand alone.
Chen Wei hurriedly explained: "We have something to discuss, so don't do anything."
Karen pointed to the arcade machine and said: "Whether it's Tetris or Arkanoid, one tael of flesh and blood every hour, five taels can cover the night."
"Includes the night?"
Chen Wei was a little confused, where did the night come from in the underworld?
Qingyou said impatiently: "Just give me flesh and blood, why do you care so much?"
Chen Wei reluctantly took out a few kilograms of flesh and blood and handed them to Qingyou, who put them away without even looking at them.
"I'm leaving……"
"What are you going to do? This flesh and blood is enough to play in Unit 5 for three days."
Chen Wei was then forcibly taken to the arcade. According to Qin Bai's instructions, he must keep the customers no matter what.
Chen Wei looked at the arcade with confused eyes, seemingly at a loss.
Is this considered being detained?
These three days are probably going to be very bad, and I don’t know if there is any hope of survival.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at Qingyou not far away, who was playing Tetris skillfully.
As time passed, Chen Wei couldn't help but become more interested.
The demon who had been bored for hundreds of years had never seen a video game. The more he looked at it, the more he wanted to try it, as if there was a voice in his ear that kept tempting him.
Either...
Chen Wei hesitated for a moment and then imitated Qingyou and played Tetris, secretly emphasizing that it was to gather information.
Soon he was addicted to it. The demon is tireless and doesn't need to eat. It's easy to imagine once he becomes addicted to the Internet.
By the time Chen Wei came to consciousness, it was already three days later, and he was awakened by the little skeleton's reminder to renew.
He released the joystick and looked around. There were many monsters in the originally deserted shop, and there were also more than a dozen arcade machines.
Some of the demons are ordinary ghosts who have nothing to do, and most of them come to test the game from various forces, but they are all trapped in the game and unable to extricate themselves.
It can be seen that although the demon lives for an extremely long time, his experience is empty and boring, and his soul accumulates a lot of death energy.
When they come into contact with arcade machines, it is difficult to restrain them as long as the death energy has not dissipated, even if their body's instinct is driving them.
Chen Wei's expression started to struggle. He already knew the horror of these magical weapons, so he wanted to tell the man in gray robe immediately.
But he couldn't let go of the game, and his whole body seemed to be sucked to the seat.
After three days of desolation, the Yin Qi should have only retreated but not advanced.
However, as a magic weapon, the arcade machine would unconsciously swallow the yin energy, making his body always in a state of operation, and his cultivation level actually improved slightly.
Just when he was getting entangled, the ghost people in line couldn't wait and were urging him.
Chen Wei gritted his teeth when he saw this. He took out all the flesh and blood from his arms and handed it to the little skeleton, intending to play with it until he had enough.
As for other things, I won't consider it. Anyway, just say that I was held hostage. It was really because the enemy was cruel and had no choice but to do so.
There are many monsters with ideas like Chen Wei in the arcade. They are all spies sent by the men in gray robes who never come back.
As a result, more and more demons gathered in the arcade. Qin Bai refined dozens more during his retreat, and now the entire lobby was overcrowded.
The types of arcade games have also been updated, which are not limited to "Tetris" and "Arkanoid", but also "Fruit Slicer", "Snake" and the like.
Internet-addicted girl Qingyou was appointed to the position of manager, but in fact she did nothing. She wandered between games every day.
So much so that many demons have started to have sex for free. Fortunately, Qin Bai doesn't care about flesh and blood.
Qin Bai only noticed that the system prompts never stopped, indicating that many demons had been cured of depression.
His merits also increased, and he felt that even taking a bath in Naihe River would not be a big problem.
Qin Bai completed seven or eight of the ghost-suppressing patterns, then stretched and planned to rest for a while.
After he walked from the guest room to the lobby, he was immediately shocked by the lively scene in front of him.
There are two to three hundred monsters in the lobby. I'm afraid half of Bian City is in the arcade.
All the demons were focused on the arcade machines and there was a lively discussion, so they didn't notice Qin Bai at all.
Qin Bai scanned it with his spiritual thoughts and found that the death energy in the demon's soul had indeed declined, and his cultivation had increased to varying degrees.
This is a very good discovery. You can gain merit by entertaining yourself.
But Qin Bai was a little confused. The inner city should be completely dependent on the outer city.
The man in gray robe allowed the thousand-year-old demon to deprive the ghost people of their flesh and blood. It must have been used for some purpose, and it might have resulted in disaster.
And he has invisibly affected the supply of flesh and blood, so there is no way there will be no reaction, right?
Why do I feel like there is nothing else I can do except send people over?
Qin Bai walked out of the arcade, planning to go shopping on other streets.
He originally thought there were some ghosts outside, but he didn't expect it to be empty and deserted.
After crossing two or three streets in a row, it became a little lively.
However, the number of bones and skeletons among them has obviously increased a lot, and the Yin Qi exuding from them has only been around for ten years.
Qin Bai's eyes narrowed. He knew that the man in gray robe had intervened and was deliberately blocking the area around the arcade.
Moreover, the men in gray robes are increasingly thirsty for flesh and blood.
Such behavior made Qin Bai very curious. He couldn't help but walk towards the junction of the inner and outer city areas, intending to use his spiritual sense to explore the situation at close range.
When he got closer, he noticed something strange.
On the inner city wall, a large number of bones were thrown down the cliff. In just a few breaths, there were hundreds of them.
This scene is like the ears of rice during the autumn harvest. When the grains are separated, the remaining wheat straw becomes useless waste and can only be burned and blended into the soil with the flames.
Qin Bai released Zun Yin Shen and wanted to sneak into the inner city from the underground, but he felt a frightening aura invisibly, which made Yin Shen instinctively afraid to approach.
Yin Shuai will not be affected, but if he loses because of this, he will feel a little distressed.
After Qin Bai hesitated for a moment, he attached his spiritual mind to the paper man and slipped in through the crack in the door.
The inner city is built on the top of a mountain, and there is still a long way to go beyond the city wall.
Qin Bai returned to the arcade while controlling the paper man.
The paper man is small in size, and the yin energy he emits is so dispensable that the patrolling monsters cannot notice it at all.
It took Qin Bai half a cup of tea to reach the top of the mountain.
There are only a few scattered houses at the top of Bian City, surrounded by dozens or hundreds of gray-robed men, who look little different from ordinary people.
Qin Bai noticed something strange in the center, and when he got closer, he realized that it was a bottomless pit hundreds of meters wide.
The pit is extremely dark, and there are steps leading directly to the bottom of the mountain on the edge. A large number of demons can be seen walking up and down.
The demons all carry bamboo baskets on their backs, containing dozens of kilograms of flesh and blood, which are being gradually transported to the depths of the pit.
Qin Bai wanted to go down the stairs, but as the paper man approached, his spiritual consciousness showed signs of collapse, so he had to give up.
Just as he was considering whether to return the same way, he noticed that many men in gray robes were gathering together to talk.
"We must not continue, it will cause a catastrophe..."
"You and I both know that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva killed all the immortal Buddhas in the world, which may have caused him to wake up completely."
"There is no retreat. If the yin and yang cannot be reversed, we will pass away."
Qin Bai frowned and mentioned him in the conversation.
However, the man in gray robe did not pay too much attention to him. He just regarded him as a demon with advanced cultivation, and his words revealed a strong arrogance.
Qin Bai continued to listen, and an old voice coughed and said: "Shut up, everyone, there are only ten days, and everything will be revealed by then..."
"Just leave now. You must give an explanation to your ancestors."
The others didn't speak again, obviously they respected this person very much.
Qin Bai wanted to go down into the pit to find out what was going on, but he thought that the completion of his Five Elements System was imminent.
Now if too much Qi is used in the body, Yin Qi will flow into the kidneys, which may cause irreversible damage to the foundation.
The ten days mentioned by the man in gray robe should refer to the time when the disaster comes. It is more than enough time for Qin Bai. It is not too late to go to the inner city after the system is completed.
He took a deep breath, and then controlled the paper man to find a place to bury it shallowly next to the pothole, so that he could pay attention to the movement at any time.
Then Qin Bai began to practice Yin Qi in seclusion.
Before retreating, he simply occupied the shops around the arcade to place more and more arcade machines.
This wave of merit harvesting is much more efficient than in the Yang Realm.
The number of check-in tasks is also continuing to decrease, and has been compressed to less than ten years. It will not take long to unlock new magical powers.
With practice, it only took two days to comprehend the ghost-suppressing patterns. He devoted himself to carving the runes without much rest.
The process has become familiar, and when the rune patterns on the kidneys reach the three, three, and nine lines, they immediately begin to transform from the inside out.
The blood turns into scarlet infuriating energy.
The bones turned into silvery energy.
The marrow liquid turns into pitch-black Yin Qi.
The divine thoughts turned into green demonic energy.
The last Buddha Qi serves as a medium to alleviate various kinds of breath, and the meridians turn into gold, covering the flesh and blood of the body, and it is also the container that carries the flow of breath.
The five elements influence each other, and the Yin Qi with the lowest cultivation level grows much faster than believed. The body instinctively keeps the five elements in a balanced state.
When Qin Bai completely perfected it, the aquarium also underwent drastic changes.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth will continue to grow in the small world, and the area will expand nearly three times, and the fairy palace will be completely absorbed.
The horned dragon fell into a deep sleep again, and his bloodline began a new round of promotion.
Qin Bai opened his eyes, and unknowingly five days had passed. Both the real body and the clone's injuries had fully recovered.
It's time to deal with the matter in Bian City, and then go to Naihe River to meet the ferryman.
