Chapter 265: Zhuxian Town
The donkey walked very slowly, and before it got dark, he arrived at a small town on the outskirts of Anqing City, and the name of the town was a bit strange, called Zhuxian Town.
The town is not big, hundreds of households, just one street, called Zhuxian Street.
There is only one pawnshop, one inn, one gambling house, one green house, one pharmacy, and one blacksmith shop in the town.
It's just that the Zhuxian Street is a bit weird, running straight through Zhuxian Town, and it is very long, six or seven miles.
In the big city, it is very common for a street six or seven miles long, and there are ten miles long, but there are hundreds of households in this Zhuxian Town, with a population of less than a thousand, and this street is extraordinarily long, and even leads all the way to the outside of the town, which is very strange.
Turning a small road from the wilderness ancient road, Ye Xiaochuan and the three of them came to the front of Zhuxian Town, it was very strange, the business travelers who came and went on the ancient road seemed to prefer to rush overnight and walk more than ten miles, rather than rest in this town, there were very few people who turned into this trail, except for Ye Xiaochuan and the three of them, there seemed to be only a few traders driving carriages.
Standing at the south street entrance of Zhuxian Town, a stone tablet as high as more than one zhang is processed at the street entrance, engraved with three ancient seal characters: "Zhuxian Town", it seems that this stone tablet is some years, at least hundreds of years, or even longer.
It was not dark yet, and the streets of Zhuxian Town were almost invisible to the people, and occasionally a few people were also walking in a hurry, as if they were hiding from some plague, and a sense of lifelessness permeated the entire town.
Although the three of them also found that this town was full of weirdness, the three of them were bold and did not take it to heart.
Walking along Zhuxian Street, I soon came to an inn.
This is the largest chain inn in the world, Yuelai Inn, it is said that as long as there are human activities in the town, there are branches of Yuelai Inn, and the same name is the largest chain Qinglou Yihongyuan.
Finally there was no need to sleep in the wilderness, Ye Xiaochuan and the three of them were very happy, entered the inn, asked the shopkeeper to lead the donkey to the back to feed the forage, and then ordered a large table full of meals.
Anyway, it is the rich master Yang Ling'er who will account for it, and of course Ye Xiaochuan and Baili Kite will not be polite.
The inn was very deserted tonight, it was time for dinner, and there seemed to be no other diners except for Ye Xiaochuan and the three of them.
Dian Xiaoer is an emaciated young man, surnamed Zhou, and he is also a very diligent and very talkative person.
Baili Kite asked: "Brother Zhou, why does this town seem to be a little strange? I didn't see any people along the way, it is said that this place is next to the ancient business road, and it is only less than twenty miles away from Anqing City, so it shouldn't be so deserted." โ
The shopkeeper surnamed Zhou smiled: "The three must be outsiders." โ
Baili Kite nodded and said, "Yes, is there any secret in this town?"
The shopkeeper looked around, the shopkeeper was not there, and it was dark outside, so there should be no more customers tonight.
So, he closed the door of the shop and said a little mysteriously: "This place is very prosperous on weekdays, but there are three times a year when it is very deserted, mid-April, mid-July, mid-December, and now it is the middle of April. โ
Ye Xiaochuan said strangely: "Why is this?"
Dian Xiaoer is also a person with vision, Ye Xiaochuan is carrying a long sword, a dagger at the waist of a hundred miles, and Yang Ling'er is dressed as a young scholar, but he is also heroic, and he knows that these three people are by no means ordinary people.
He smiled and said, "You are immortals on the path of cultivation, right?"
"Huh?"
Ye Xiaochuan said suspiciously: "You don't have a bad vision, you have a future." โ
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Childe, this is to promote me, I grew up in Zhuxian Town, and I have seen a lot of cultivators and immortals, and now it is April and a half, and the people who dare to come to this Zhuxian Town, except for the local, or the business travelers who don't know the reason, are all these immortal figures." โ
Baili Kite said, "So, there are often cultivators coming to this town, is there any strange treasure here?"
As soon as he heard the strange treasure, Ye Xiaochuan's eyes lit up.
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "What kind of treasure, it's just that every year at these three times, there will be a terrible thing happening in this town, the three of them are here tonight, just in time, but I advise the three, no matter what happens tonight, don't go out, your meal should be almost there, I'll go to the back kitchen to see." โ
The shopkeeper left, leaving behind three people who looked at each other.
After a while, Ye Xiaochuan said in a low voice: "Baili, do you think the words of the second person in this shop are reliable? Since there are often cultivators coming, maybe you are really right, there are strange treasures in this place." โ
Baili Kite said: "Look at the look of the shopkeeper just now, it doesn't seem to be a treasure, it's probably not a good thing, or let's go, this kind of unknown thing, it's better to have less fun." โ
Ye Xiaochuan said: "What are you afraid of? The two of us join forces, and we are not afraid of any demons and monsters." โ
Yang Ling'er, who had never spoken, looked at the two of them strangely, and couldn't help but say, "You really don't know what happened here?"
Ye Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Young Master Yang, what, do you know about things here?"
Yang Ling'er was sure that the two of them didn't know about this, so he said: "This place is located in the inner belly of Middle Earth, three hundred miles to the north, is the Jiaye Temple of Mount Meru, and three hundred miles to the southeast, is Longhu Mountain. This Zhuxian town is located right in the middle of Mount Meru and Mount Longhu. โ
Ye Xiaochuan said strangely: "Could it be that this is a terrifying strange thing, and it has something to do with Jiaye Temple and Longhu Mountain?"
Yang Ling'er said: "Have you ever heard of the Yin Soldier borrowing the Tao?"
"Poof......
Ye Xiaochuan only felt that the sky was full of rain, and it turned out that there was a Baili kite sitting opposite him who was drinking tea, and a sip of tea was almost sprayed on his face.
Ye Xiaochuan grimaced and said, "What are you doing?"
Baili Kite didn't pay attention to her, but said strangely: "No, this is Yin Yang Road? No wonder that Zhuxian Street is so long." โ
"What? Yin Yang Road?"
Ye Xiaochuan swallowed his saliva, forgetting that Baili Kite had sprayed his face with tea just now.
Yang Ling'er nodded and said, "There are two yin and yang paths in the world, one is controlled by the Demon Sect, and no one knows where it is except for a few people from the Demon Sect. The other one is jointly controlled by the monks of Jiaye Temple and the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, which is here. Every year in mid-April, mid-July, and mid-December on the night of the full moon, the ghost door is wide open, and the long Zhuxian Street we walked through just now is actually not for people to walk, but for ghosts, sending some lonely souls and wild ghosts wandering in the world to be reincarnated, why, you really don't know?"
Ye Xiaochuan and Baili Kite looked at each other, the two of them naturally knew about it, but they didn't know that the Yin and Yang Road occupied by the original Middle Earth Righteous Dao was actually in this Zhuxian Town.
