Chapter 463: Mad Immortal City
Chapter 463
"It's a weird world."
Lantern Festival walked all the way down the barren mountains and observed the surroundings all the way.
Whether it is the earth, mountains or rivers around, it has not seen a drop of water for at least thousands of years from the point of view of dryness, and the three suns in the sky seem to have cut off all water and food for human existence, which is not at all the dream world he imagined.
Walking down the barren hill and approaching the city below, the city looks brand new and has no traces of age.
Until they approached the city gate, there was not a single guard at the gate.
Looking inside from the city gates, the whole city was empty, and it seemed to be an empty city.
Standing on the road outside the city gate, Lantern Xiao's heart swayed, he didn't perceive the slightest danger, either this strange city was really not in danger, or the danger of this strange city was beyond his perception of his true fate.
Just as he was about to fight, there was a dense sound of horses' hooves behind the col in the distance.
Lantern Xiao carried Mikasa on his back to the side of the road, and saw nine pure white unicorns without a trace of variegation, pulling a treasure cart with a Kowloon canopy, but they had already run to the city gate and stopped for more than ten seconds.
The curtain of the treasure car opened, and an old man with white beard and white hair poked his head out.
"Oh my God! You're from the city, what a rarity! ”
The old man said happily with a look of surprise on his face, "Are you tired of visiting us from the original city?" ”
"Yes!"
Lantern Xiao nodded in thought, "Old man, what kind of city is this, you can't see the name at the city gate?" ”
"Name...... Alas......"
When the old man heard this, he sighed and said, "You must be from a very remote place, otherwise it is impossible not to know about us, since you don't know, don't ask, this name is the most painful memory for us." ”
"I was reckless."
Lantern Xiao said apologetically.
"Let's go, get in the car and let's go into town. The three suns out there are really hot people. ”
The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled.
"Haven't asked for the old man's name yet?"
Lantern Xiao jumped into the car with Mikasa on his back and asked.
"Call me Lao Zhangtou, this is your daughter-in-law on your back!"
The old man smiled.
"Yes!"
Lantern Xiao nodded and said, "I'm Lantern Xiao, and she's Mikasa." ”
"Lantern Festival, the name is good, it is the traditional food of our Chinese people, which symbolizes reunion."
The old man swung a golden whip and whipped it on the unicorn's back. Pulling the treasure car through the city gate at once, the moment he passed through the city gate, the Lantern Festival was stunned, and it was like two different worlds inside and outside the city.
The world outside the city, except for the dead silence brought by the three suns, is pure oxygen.
And from the outside, there was no one in the city, but through the city gate, there was a lot of traffic, there was a flying boat floating island of the fairy road civilization in the sky, and the people on the ground were indescribably lively, and even the heat of the three suns was blocked by a layer of light curtain.
At the gate of the city, the old man opened his mouth and spat out some strange syllables.
Only one of the nine unicorns remained. The other eight horses disappeared like bubbles, and the treasure car of the Kowloon canopy also shrank a lot, running along the lane on the right side of the street, and introducing the Lantern Festival to the old Zhang Tou as he walked.
"This is Qinglong Street, and there is a fairy inn further on."
Lao Zhangtou gestured and said, "The boss there is an acquaintance of mine, and he hasn't received a guest for more than 3,000 years, so I must be very happy to meet you this time." If it weren't for me, I would have entertained you myself. ”
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang."
Lantern Xiao said gratefully.
This is the case on his face, but there is a chill in his heart.
An inn in the city. It was said that more than 3,000 people had no one to live in, and Lao Zhangtou's statement was even more chilling, what is called the moment of death can not be entertained, how can anyone know that he is going to die and still care about whether others have a place to settle here.
Including the eight unicorns that disappeared at the city gate, how strange the city in this world looks.
"Uncle Zhang, where are there books to read in this city."
Lantern Xiao asked tentatively.
"Books! What a good offspring. ”
Old Zhang Tou thought for a while and said. "The books are all in the Tibetan Immortal Pavilion on Suzaku Street, and my favorite thing back then was to go there to read, but after reading the books for more than a thousand years, I really had nothing to do after staying for thousands of years, so I couldn't help but leave the city to go outside to see......
"Suzaku Street Hidden Immortal Pavilion!"
Lantern Festival firmly remembers this name.
The unicorn car moved very fast, and in a short time it was already in a three-story building full of oriental style.
"It's here. You said that I was introduced to you by my old man. ”
Lao Zhangtou grinned and said, "When my old Zhangtou comes back to life tomorrow, he will be a good man, if you don't leave, my old Zhangtou will definitely take you to have a good time, no one around here is more familiar than me." ”
"Ahh Good ......"
Lantern Xiao thanked him repeatedly.
Watching Lao Zhangtou's unicorn car leave, Lantern Xiao turned around and walked towards the Immortal Eater Inn
"Immortal Eater Inn ......"
Lantern Xiao stared at the four-character golden plaque and was suddenly stunned.
His eyes shimmered, and the power of his eyes spread out, looking at the buildings around him with all his might.
The eyeballs that looked at Lantern Festival almost didn't fall.
As long as the buildings around this area are made of wood, they must be built of wood collected by the Heavenly Divine Trees, such as Dragon Descending Wood, Bodhi Wood, Fusang Wood, Laurel Wood, Eternal Divine Wood, Life Divine Wood, etc., and any piece of wood can make ordinary gods break their heads.
Looking at the tiles on the roof of the building, the purple feather glaze and the flying fairy jade are almost all kinds of legendary treasures.
At the beginning, when I entered the city, I just glanced at it and was in the carriage, but I didn't realize that the city was so terrifying, if the materials of these buildings were real, Lantern Xiao dared to say that he might not be able to afford to sell the entire Miracle Academy.
When he walked into the inn, Lantern Xiao touched the door frame made of Bodhi wood.
Fake ......
You don't need to look at it to know that it's fake, these things are just imaginary, they just look exactly the same as the real material, but in fact they are just a bunch of mortal things, and they don't have the slightest supernatural power of the real thing.
On the first floor of the inn, which is decorated like a fairyland, a middle-aged shopkeeper in a Confucian robe is lying on the counter and falling asleep.
Lantern sat on a chair with Mikasa in his arms and waited, looking at this strange city through the window, he had a feeling that what he was looking for was in this city, which was the starting point of all disasters and the most crucial place in the dream world.
Hodgson arranged the Immortal Dao Formation to assist in dreaming, and it was impossible not to be prepared for it at all.
The sky gradually darkened, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on Qinglong Street.
Lantern Xiao found something strange, the street stalls selling things, they collected the money and threw it aside, it seems that collecting money is just a way, and occasionally some people who buy things and don't give money are not pursued.
Even thieves on the road can swagger and steal a lot of things to hang on their bodies.
Everyone in this city seems to be playing a drama that even they don't know the truth or falsehood, and Lantern Festival even found that some of them can even see a trace of numbness and death in their eyes.
This is not speculation, but real reality.
In just one afternoon, there were dozens of people on the street who died by hitting the wall, hanging themselves, lying on the road and being run over by cars, fighting each other, and wiping their necks. (To be continued......)
