Chapter 92 Curse (Subscribe! 25)
dark.
dark.
Still dark!
The starlight is gone, the night sky seems to be swallowed up, only the hoarse whisper still lingers in my ears.
The next moment, a lamp was suddenly lit in the darkness, and the pale green light illuminated the surroundings.
The ancient, dilapidated buildings seemed stretched out under the pale green light.
Before anyone could react, lights lit up from under their feet to the distance.
There were buildings standing on all sides, with an ancient and strange style. They didn't even know when they had entered a ghost town.
There were fruits on the table under the building, and they looked fresh.
The ground was swept clean and did not look like it had been buried for thousands of years.
Instead, it seems like someone lives here.
But how could there be anyone alive here?
The more normal everything here is compared to the secular world, the more extraordinary it seems to everyone.
"How did we get in?" Zhao Yan whispered.
She lowered her voice unconsciously because everything here was too weird.
The lights here are hung with great care, as if someone had arranged them, but there are no living people living here.
"It wasn't us who came in, but the evil spirits twisted and sucked us in."
Daoyi whispered, "The ghost den is a distorted world. They don't have the concept of inside and outside. Inside can be outside, and outside can be inside. And we have been transformed into it now."
"There is a great terror in this ghost town. There are evil things or ghosts that have not been wiped out for eight hundred years. I'm afraid..."
Dao Er took over Dao Yi's words and said, "I'm afraid it has something to do with immortals."
Related to immortals.
Over the past two thousand years, its appearances have been few and far between.
Ever since the road to becoming an immortal disappeared, there have been almost no immortals in this world. How could this ghost town be related to immortals?
Mao Feng said, "Since ancient times, there have been people who have become immortals. How could anyone practice evil things?"
Li Mubai shook his head and said, "I can't say there isn't any, I can only say there hasn't been any in the past one or two thousand years. Back then, Emperor Xuanyuan even refined a female corpse called Hanba, and evil magic wasn't called evil magic at the beginning."
"The things in this ghost town are probably remnants from ancient times."
Everyone was stunned when these words were spoken. Thinking about it this way, it seemed really possible.
So, is it really possible that everyone could encounter an evil object left behind by a true immortal?
Everyone's expression suddenly became gloomy.
Immortal is an existence that transcends the Three Realms and is not within the Five Elements.
It has been like a legend to ordinary cultivators since ancient times.
With the things he left behind, it would be difficult for everyone to get out of this ghost town.
Just as everyone started talking, the whole city became dark and lively.
Thousands of people suddenly appeared on the empty streets, talking and doing business.
There were also soldiers on duty standing at the edge of the city.
If it weren't for the green light, all this might look like an ancient city.
But with the addition of this dim green light, everything was developing towards an unpredictable horror.
This sudden change made everyone confused and uncertain.
"Are these people alive or dead?" Qiao Yuanshan approached Li Mubai and asked.
"The living dead!" Li Mubai whispered.
"Ignore them, let's find a way out. There should be an exit in this ghost town. This place is cursed. If we stay here for too long, we might end up like them."
Li Mubai raised his wrist, and a green thread wrapped around his arm and spread out little by little.
Everyone looked at their wrists quickly, and saw such a line on everyone's wrist.
This is a curse that is constantly eroding them.
"If we find a way out, we can survive. If we can't find one, we will all be buried in this ghost town."
After Li Mubai finished speaking, he took off the long sword from his back, held it in his hand, and walked in front of the crowd.
Everyone hurried to follow.
The people of the ancient city who were living between the towns and markets seemed to be unable to see them and just let them move around freely.
Just when everyone thought that these people from the ancient city were not in danger, an apprentice of Wanshou Palace suddenly bumped into a person from the ancient city.
The people in the ancient city who were originally chatting with others in a friendly manner seemed to be pulled out of a certain state.
His eyes instantly turned a dark green, and the skin on his body began to age and fall off, but in an instant it turned into a pile of dry bones.
Along with it came a black aura that lingered where his body had been, and its dark green eyes stared coldly at the person in front of him.
The two ghost hands directly inserted into the body of the Wanshou Palace disciple who bumped into him, and then began to drink his flesh and blood.
"ah!!"
The disciples of Wanshou Palace screamed and tried to struggle but to no avail, as they were eaten alive by the evil spirits.
Drops of blood dripped onto the ground.
But the whole city remained indifferent.
The person who was originally chatting with the man from the ancient city was still talking with his mouth open and smiling.
This mixture of weirdness and normality made everyone shudder.
Wei Xusheng, the leader of Wanshou Palace, took action. A yellow talisman hit the evil ghost on the head, but it only stopped the ghost for a moment.
Then the gnawing continued.
Daoyi stopped the people who wanted to continue and said, "Don't do it. This is not some evil spirit. This is a curse. You can only delay it, not stop it. Everyone, please don't touch the people from the ancient city. Don't do it."
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped, and the evil ghost devoured the Taoist priest from Wanshou Palace bit by bit, leaving only a pile of bloody bones.
Then the evil ghost drilled back into its own corpse again, as if time had gone back, and it restored its appearance before being hit, and continued to chat and laugh with people.
The bloody bones also changed back to the Taoist's original appearance as the people in the ancient city changed, but he seemed to no longer be able to see the others and could only see the people in the ancient city.
He has become a part of this cursed ghost town.
"This... is such a domineering curse."
Daoyi took a breath and said.
Qiao Yuanshan and others felt that their clothes on the backs were soaked.
Although they were already extraordinary, this was the first time they had seen such an extremely strange scene.
Those who are alive may not necessarily be alive, and those who are dead may not necessarily be dead.
The normal scene is more frightening than the abnormal scene.
"Let's go, we can't keep this!"
Li Mubai reminded.
"Also, don't run into people from the ancient city."
In the ghost town, a group of people mingled among the ghosts, being cautious and not daring to act rashly.
Li Mubai led everyone along the main road and finally arrived at the city gate.
But outside the city gate was endless darkness.
There was no exit in sight.
"No, if everyone looks like the city was before it was buried, then they shouldn't go out!" Li Mubai said with a frown.
Just then, something seemed to start moving.
“Crunch! Crunch!”
In the ghost town, everything suddenly fell silent, and everyone repeated one sentence: "Yak! Yak! Yak..."
A hoarse voice, empty eyes, like a walking corpse.
