Chapter 123 Can't Get Out
Regarding the answer of "Toad Buddha", Xu Ming felt that what the toad said made sense.
After answering Xu Ming, this "Toad Buddha" continued to close his eyes and listen to the prayers of other monsters.
At this time, Xu Ming was truly certain that this town was indeed not a trap set by others for him.
Because the demonic aura of that Toad Buddha was so strong that he had never seen it before, and the demonic aura was mixed with Buddhist rhymes.
If the other party wanted to attack him, Xu Ming was not sure whether he could walk out of the hall.
Besides, with so many monsters coming at me at the same time, I won’t be able to defeat them all. There’s no need to make things so troublesome just to kill them.
After leaving the Buddhist temple, Xu Ming also encountered a pheasant. The pheasant was standing on a paulownia tree with its head held high and its chest puffed out.
Xu Ming went over and asked it what it was doing.
The pheasant replied: "The phoenix roosts on the phoenix tree. I am resting on the phoenix tree."
Xu Ming asked again: "Are you Phoenix?"
The pheasant raised its proud head and said, "The phoenix is a bird, and so am I. The phoenix has wings, and so do I. Why can't I be a phoenix?"
Xu Ming: “.”
There are countless similar incidents in this small town.
There was a snake breathing heavily on the roof, thinking it was a real dragon.
There was a jackal who moved to a county government office, wore an official robe, and became an official himself.
The old dogs under the wolf officials patrolled the streets silently, looking very serious.
The fat fox was wearing silk and doing business like a businessman, arguing with his opponent over a copper coin.
This place is like a human city, but there is no one and the "human" feel is everywhere.
Xu Ming found an inn to stay in.
An orangutan with a small flower on his head knocked on Xu Ming's door and asked Xu Ming if he needed any special service.
Xu Ming opened the door. The gorilla Xiaohua's eyes lit up when he saw Xu Ming. He immediately said that Xu Ming looked like his type and could give him half price.
But Xu Ming refused.
But Xu Ming gave her money and let her into the house.
Xu Ming naturally didn't want any special services.
Except for the third brother Ganges from Blue Star in the previous life, any normal person would not have such a strong taste.
Xu Ming wanted to ask the other party what was going on with this city.
"Sir, you want to ask about this city?" The orangutan named Xiaohua held his handkerchief, not understanding Xu Ming's question. "This is how the city is. Is it strange? On the contrary, you humans come in from time to time, and then suddenly disappear."
"Suddenly disappeared?" Xu Ming became more and more confused.
"yes."
Xiaohua cast a coquettish glance at Xu Ming.
“Every once in a while, there would always be humans coming in, but after a short period of three months or a long period of one or two years, they would suddenly disappear, as if they had never been here before.
Those people showed the same puzzled expression as you, sir. They said they came from the outside world and asked us how to leave.
But how do we know how to leave?
We have lived here for generations.”
Xiaohua spread her hands, looking helpless.
"."Xu Ming frowned slightly.
"But I heard my great-grandmother once say that when she was young, there were many human beings in this place, but those humans gradually disappeared, and only we are left." Xiaohua added.
"Great-grandmother? Your great-grandmother now."
"My great-grandmother has been gone for two hundred years." Xiaohua knew what Xu Ming was going to say and gave him a coquettish look.
“.”
Xu Ming sorted out what Xiaohua said.
First of all, this place is isolated from the world and is most likely a barrier that can only be entered but not exited.
Secondly, this city did not look like this more than two hundred years ago. Before that, this city was connected to the outside world.
The problem lies in this “more than two hundred years ago”.
If Baiwa City looked like it does now more than two hundred years ago, then no matter how remote this place is, I would definitely have heard of the existence of such a place.
Because this place will definitely be very famous, there will definitely be many monks who will come to explore it.
But he had never heard that Baiwa City would be like this.
"Is it possible?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Suddenly, a bold but reasonable guess came into Xu Ming's mind.
Is the speed of time in this place different from that in the outside world? Baiwa City has actually only become like this in the past one or two years, but one or two years outside is actually two hundred years for Baiwa City?
And to be honest, Xu Ming was quite worried about what Xiaohua said, "The human race will suddenly disappear in as short as three months or as long as one or two years."
Xu Ming never thought that the disappearance of the human race meant returning to the outside world.
If they returned to the outside world, the wonders of Baiwa City would definitely be spread by these people.
So those people who disappeared were most likely really disappeared. "Sir, do you want someone to serve you? I can do it for free." Xiaohua looked at Xu Ming's pensive look and quietly squeezed forward.
Xu Ming shuddered with fear and quickly stood up: "That's really not necessary. Thank you, Miss Xiaohua, for clearing up my confusion."
"Really? Young Master really doesn't understand romance."
The orangutan Xiaohua stood up and left with resentment, and as she walked out she kept lamenting, "He is such a good-looking boy, it's a pity that he will disappear soon."
"Geese, goose, goose? (What should we do now?)" the Tianxuan Goose asked Xu Ming.
"Since ancient times, there must be death after life, there must be consequences after causes, there must be exits after entry, and there must be a way out, we just have to find it."
Xu Ming looked at the package he had placed on the table.
The package contained Shen Sheng’s ashes.
In Xu Ming's mind, the words that Shen Sheng said to him before his death emerged again.
Shen Sheng lived in Baiwa City in Qingyang County for a long time, and hoped that his enemy would bring his ashes back to Baiwa City.
This city might have a great relationship with Shen Sheng.
Xu Ming's fingers tapped the table subconsciously: "Tomorrow, we will go to the other side of Baiwa City and ask if anyone knows Shen Sheng."
At the same time, three men and one woman walked into Baiwa City.
The moment the three men and one woman walked into the city, they all stopped.
"What's going on? Wasn't it daylight just now? Why did it suddenly turn dark?" Xia Donghua, the son of the leader of Tianxuan Sect, frowned.
"There's a strong evil spirit in this place." said another person.
The girl among the four people chanted some incantations, and golden runes floated towards the four directions of the city.
After a long time, the girl opened her eyes, frowned, and shook her head: "We can't get out."
