Chapter 4: A Living Ghost Town

The four walls are towering, the gatehouse is towering, the buildings are more than the scales, the sharp towers are straight into the sky, the grand Taoist temple is solemn, the broad and straight streets are criss-crossed, the traffic is crowded and the crowds are like weaving...... What a glorious city!

In the distance, there is still a vast desert in all directions, without any vitality, but in the middle is a prosperous city, full of vitality. With such a strong contrast, how could Su Jing not be surprised. And what is revealed in this contrast is not a treacherous atmosphere.

The black eagle began to descend slowly, and Su Jing asked tentatively, "Brother Hei, have you arrived at the place?"

Lingrui, the black eagle, cried softly, as if answering a 'yes'.

Su Jing pondered in his heart, he had heard that cultivators would choose a secluded place to enlighten the Tao when they sought tranquility, but he didn't expect that the 'Old Ancestor' would settle down in such a big city. However, there is a city in the middle of the desert, and there is no water vein or oasis nearby, and the more prosperous the city, the more evil the place......

Black Eagle deliberately chose a remote corner of the city to descend, and did not attract the surprise of others. Su Jing rode the eagle for more than half a month, and was finally able to step on the ground, and he was indescribably happy in his heart, but he jumped off the back of the eagle, and as soon as the soles of his shoes touched the ground, he suddenly exclaimed, and his body shook and fell to the ground.

The failure to stand firm is not because the legs and feet are weak after riding for too long, but because the ground is soft. The seemingly hard stone road, when people step on it, it is as soft as stepping on sand, and the boy's ankle is directly gone.

This situation is inevitably abnormal, Su Jing was stunned, stood firmly on one foot with his right leg, and slowly 'pulled out' his left foot, the bluestone slab under his feet was like a shadow in the water, and it was restored after a slight ripple, and the bluestone was still the same, looking hard and cold.

If you look closely at the shoes on your left foot, the soles, uppers and even the shoe hall are full of fine and dense yellow sand, which is hot from the sun.

Su Jing took a few steps tentatively, and the feeling under his feet was clear, he was stepping on the desert, and if the young man had an understanding, there happened to be a big tree beside him, he tried to stretch out his arm and press it, but his hand fluttered lightly without the slightest feeling, so he pressed his hand into the trunk. At this point, Su Jing finally understood that this big city and everything in front of him were just a glimpse of light and illusions.

The boy turned out of the corner and walked to the street, Liuliang followed closely behind him, and the monster was also full of surprise at this moment, while looking at the lively scene in the city, he was amazed: "As far as I know, there are many illusion spells in this world, but at best, a dilapidated temple and a small forest... It is unheard of to easily urge the illusion of a large city mirror to be activated by the ancestor, that is, the legendary divine beast mirage that specializes in illusions, I am afraid that it may not be able to have such mana......! Where is the old ancestor?"

Su Jing's expression was so confused that he couldn't be confused anymore. He originally thought that when he got off the eagle, there was a mountain in front of him, and there was a view in the mountain, and there was an old Taoist who was in a black robe sitting in the view, but he would come to a big city of illusions. Where can he go to find someone?

And the shadow of the black-robed spiritual consciousness has not appeared since he surrendered to Liuliang, Su Jing tried to shout twice but no one answered, Liuliang whispered to him to give him an idea, but he didn't dare to say directly: "Or... I remember... The last time the Ancestor summoned the Ancestor, he was committing suicide. ”

Su Jing disagreed, what if it didn't work this time.

At this time, Su Jing's body suddenly shook, and a man passed by him and accidentally bumped into him.

Su Jing was immediately overjoyed, you must know that this city is an illusion, but the man really hit him, it is definitely a real person, there must be a mystery in this, he immediately stepped forward and chased after him, but when he walked on the street, he was shocked to find... Rubbing shoulders and touching hands and feet, all the people who passed by around them turned out to be real, living and real existences. ...,

Some people thought he was reckless and glared at him angrily, some people were generous, and they just smiled when they touched him, and some people were alert and stretched out their hands to block him before Su Jing touched him.

At this moment, Liu Liang was no longer surprised, but looked like he had seen a living ghost, and his voice couldn't help but tremble slightly: "This... This city is illusory, but people are real? He, how can they live here?"

On the bustling streets, people have different expressions, or they are in a hurry, or they are frowning and frowning slightly, or they are smiling and talking to their companions, and there are merchants and customers in the shops on both sides of the street, bargaining for the goods.

Su Jing and Liuliang deliberately tried to test it, all the scenery in the city, even the grass and trees, flowers and birds, and domestic animals, these things are all illusions, and the tentacles do not exist and pass by, but the people are real......

Phantom city, real people.

The people of the city did not know that they were in an illusion and that they were living ...... It's a matter of fact.

Rao is Su Jing's courage is not small, and he is well-informed, and in such a strange situation, a layer of goosebumps involuntarily exploded on the arms of the two.

Su Jing shook his head, no matter how strange the situation in front of him was, it had nothing to do with him, it was only right to find the black robe as soon as possible, and it didn't matter so much at the moment, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a passerby at random: "This gentleman, may I ask ......"

Unexpectedly, this person was in a hurry, and said impatiently: "My lady is sick, I am in a hurry to grab medicine!" As he spoke, he pushed Su Jing aside with a hard flick of his arm. Su Jing didn't care, he said, 'The kid is reckless', and he planned to change the person to ask again, but when he saw the man pushing people, he immediately got into his head, and as soon as he stretched out his hand to grab the passerby, Sen Sen sneered: "It is a blessing for you to be able to get the question of my little ancestor, it is a blessing for you to cultivate in the third life and the fifth generation......"

As a result, before the monster finished speaking, the man repeated: "My lady is seriously ill, I am in a hurry to grab the medicine!" As he spoke, he waved his arm and wanted to push Liuliang away, how much strength did Liuliang have, how could ordinary people break free when he held it?

Passers-by kept struggling, and their mouths kept repeating 'My lady is suddenly ill, I am in a hurry to grab medicine', over and over again, back and forth, just like that, and there is nothing else to say.

After repeating it a few times, Liu Liang probably understood, this person probably has some problems in his brain, otherwise how could he say this, of course such a person would not know where the ancestor was, so he immediately let him go, and followed Su Jing again, and went to ask other passers-by, but ...... Everyone on this street has only one word!

"It's a good day and it's a good time to walk the streets. ”

"Liu Yuanwai's grandson is full moon, and he has a flowing water seat on the drunken fairy building, and I have to drink a cup of him. ”

"The brocade cloth village posted a notice, and today there is another batch of good silk, and the price is very cheap. ”

"This Zhao butcher is not a good person, the meat he bought with me is stinky, I have to find him to reason, if he doesn't admit it, I have to drag him to see the official!"

......

Walking all the way, Su Jing didn't know how many people he stopped to speak.

Everyone will speak, but just like the person who 'the lady is sick', everyone has only one sentence in their mouths, which is different, but just one sentence, no matter what Su Jing asks or says, they will always say that sentence, and even when they speak, the expressions on their faces are repeated together.

The weirdness gradually turned into gloomy, from Su Jing's eyes and ears gradually fell into his heart, and then diverged, slowly blending into the blood, and being taken to the limbs and bones, unconsciously, the young man's hands and feet were a little cold. At this time, an eight- or nine-year-old red-robed boy suddenly ran out of an alley, and he bumped into Su Jing impartially, and then the little baby fell to the ground.

The other party ran in a hurry, and Su Jing was also hit by him and staggered back two steps. ...,

Liuliang was anxious, hurriedly stabilized the little ancestor, and took a step forward, seemingly wanting to shout a few words to the little baby, but when Liuliang looked carefully at the appearance of the little baby, the scolding that was about to gush out of his mouth suddenly turned into an exclamation: "Little... Little, little ancestor?!"

It's a little ancestor, not a little ancestor.

At this moment, Su Jing also saw clearly, although the person sitting on the ground was just a little doll, without wrinkles and beard, but his facial features looked very similar to his black-robed Engong, but the little baby was wearing a fiery red robe.

Alive, the grace of the baby.

The red-robed boy ignored Liuliang, patted his ass and stood up, and bowed respectfully to Su Hang: "It was my frizzy that bumped into Mr., I'm sorry." ”

Su Jing wasn't sure if this 'little ancestor' would only say one word, so he didn't change the topic at the moment, just shook his head and said politely: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, did you fall and hurt?"

"I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all. The red-robed boy smiled, but immediately took another step and blocked Su Jing's way, as if he was afraid that he would run away, and continued: "I have already daoqian to you, now it's time for you to give me daoqian." ”

After arriving in this city, except for Liuliang, the only person who spoke the second sentence to him was the 'little black-robed ancestor' wearing a red robe.
