Chapter 316: The rabbit spirit ran away with the baby after disguising herself as a man. 26

The demon world wants to create puppets in the human world and use living people for sacrifice, so first of all it needs a group of rich people.

People who are stupid and have a lot of money are especially targeted by the demon world.

The demon world used the excuse of missionary work to attract many wealthy officials and businessmen who wanted to achieve immortality to join in and pay money to attract more ordinary people to voluntarily join the church.

In Su Zhiruan's opinion, the essential purpose of this church is more like a pyramid scheme organization.

Since we're doing a show, we have to do it fully.

In order to express their desire for immortality, Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi got on a carriage that afternoon and headed for the abandoned city mentioned in the invitation letter.

Before leaving, the driver hesitated to speak.

"Uncle Li, do you have anything to say?" Su Zhiruan asked casually when he saw his abnormality.

Uncle Li sighed, "Master, Madam, you two don't know, this abandoned city is not simple, there are all kinds of people in it, there are even many demons and monsters, do you two really want to go?"

"Do you know something?" Su Zhiruan keenly noticed the pain in his expression, and it seemed that things were not that simple.

Li Bo seemed to have made up his mind. He suddenly looked up at Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi and said, "Master, Madam, if you don't mind my nagging, I will say a few words."

Seeing that both masters nodded, Li Bocai told them everything he knew.

"A few years ago, Qicheng was just a small place, with only local simple people living there. No one came here at other times. But later, for some reason, no one saw anyone coming out of it. Even the prefect sent people to check, but none of them came back," Li Bo added as he drove the car. "Later, someone managed to get out. It is said that there was no one in the city during the day! It was an empty city, but at night, everyone appeared, and demons and ghosts roamed around freely. The prefect reported it to the emperor, but the emperor was afraid that it would affect the fate of the country, so he simply gave up the city. This is the origin of the name Qicheng."

"Don't the major sects care about it?" Su Zhiruan asked.

She had previously learned about the composition of the mortal world in Changqi's library.

Unlike the demon clan, part of the mortal world is the same as in ancient feudal times, where imperial power is supreme and the people have no ability to practice cultivation. The other part is made up of various immortal cultivation sects, led by several major clans. Every year, they select some talented people to go up the mountain to practice. After reaching a certain level and going through tribulations, they will ascend to become immortals.

"Of course the sect doesn't care. It's just an abandoned town that even the higher-ups don't like. Except for some demon hunters, no ordinary people would choose to go here. That would be courting death." Li Bo sighed, "Master, Madam, although this is the first time I've met you, I still hope you can give up this decision. As for the immortal sect, they are not good people either. They are all scammers. If the situation is serious, you won't even be able to keep your life."

He spoke earnestly and looked at Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi with great concern. He even drove much slower, hoping to wait until the two of them turned back.

"We are not ordinary people." After listening, Chang Qi just said this.

Uncle Li opened his mouth slightly in surprise, "Could it be that you are..."

Chang Qi said nothing more, and Uncle Li also closed his mouth.

At this time, he already had a guess in his mind. Most ordinary people value their lives, especially the rich, otherwise they would not risk their lives to seek the elixir of immortality.

If the people sitting in the carriage today were really an ordinary couple, they might have given up the idea of ​​moving forward after hearing what he said. But if they were not ordinary people and came prepared, then all this would make sense.

"Master, Madam," Uncle Li said to them finally, "be careful."

The carriage drove out of the city, and people passing by looked at them. Many people had already recognized the identities of Su Zhiruan and the others, and they were all talking about it.

"Look, this is the rich man who came recently. I heard from others that he seems to be a royal relative. The young master takes his wife shopping, eating, drinking and having fun all day long. Who in the city doesn't know them now?"

"If we go out this way, there are only two places -" A middle-aged woman carrying a basket of vegetables showed hesitation on her face. She squinted her eyes and looked in the direction where the carriage left. "If we go out this way, we will either go to the abandoned city or to the small country next to it that is about to be destroyed. I don't know..."

"He went to the abandoned city. Rich people all pursue immortality. Now he is so anxious, he must have gone there."

"Alas, it's probably some rich and stupid young master who was spoiled by his family. He thought that there were easy things to come to him, but he didn't realize that he was sometimes hurting himself..."

…

Many people felt regretful. A few days ago, he was taking his wife around shopping, but after just a few days here, he was about to commit suicide.

Not long after Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi left, almost everyone in the city knew that the two had died.

The matter was brought to the attention of the prefect. Initially, the prefect was also worried about Chang Qi's background. He thought that if he couldn't afford to offend Chang Qi, he would not be able to guarantee his life if something went wrong.

But after a few days, he did not find out which young master had gone out for a wedding, and there was no news about Chang Qi and Su Zhiruan, so he blocked the news and stopped people from talking about it. He himself was also very secretive and never mentioned it.

* Abandon the city.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi asked Li Bo to drop them off at the city gate and let him go back first.

Uncle Li was reluctant, but after Su Zhiruan's constant persuasion, he finally agreed to go back first.

At this time, Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi were standing at the closed city gate.

Ordinary people cannot see anything unusual here. They can only feel a chill on their backs and subconsciously don't want to get close.

Su Zhiruan and Chang Qi, one is a demon and the other is a god, so they can naturally see the abnormality here.

The black fog rising into the sky was mixed with streaks of red fog, and the air was filled with the smell of decay. Looking from the ground, what came out from the black soil from time to time was all resentment, as if after death, people did not reincarnate, but were trapped here forever.

"The demonic aura here is very strong," Su Zhiruan touched her belly inconspicuously. She was a little worried about the baby in her belly. "There should be a lot of demons and monsters, and a lot of ghosts."

"You have to be careful and never take off the bracelet." Chang Qi reminded her.

"Sure." Su Zhiruan nodded in agreement, her expression became serious, and she looked towards the city gate -

The city gate was also covered with rust, and there were even a lot of weeds and vines in the corners of the wall, climbing up from the ground. In such a place where they should not appear, they grew abnormally well, and both their leaves and length were very wide and long.

Just then——
