"Come here, sit down and don't move." Ah Gui waved at Li Xiu, motioning Li Xiu to sit next to him.
Li Xiu didn't hesitate and walked straight to Ah Gui and sat down against the grave.
"No matter what you see later, you must not make any sound and you must not move," Ah Gui warned.
Li Xiu nodded, without saying a word or moving.
After a while, Li Xiu suddenly felt a little cold. A cold wind blew over from somewhere, and the grass on the grave swayed along with it.
A hissing sound came from deep within the cemetery, as if it was the sound of some metal rubbing against a sharp stone. It made the listener's teeth ache and made him feel very irritated.
Because of the grave blocking his view, Li Xiu couldn't see what was going on. Ah Gui was half lying on the grave, but he didn't seem nervous at all. He was holding the bottle and pouring wine into his mouth.
Li Xiu also half-lay on the grave like him, and the rubbing sound coming from his ears became louder and louder.
Gradually, Li Xiu heard footsteps, which should be the sound of some creature dragging a metal object in the cemetery.
Li Xiu kept staring in that direction, and through the gaps between the graves, he occasionally saw what that thing was.
It turned out to be a Black Death Demon, but it was a little different from the Black Death Demons in the city. This Black Death Demon was not wearing shackles. It was dragging a black metal shovel in its hand and walking slowly in the cemetery.
The black light on his body was like smoke and fog, and his armor was as transparent and deep as a black diamond. He was actually a radiant demon spirit.
Li Xiu has the Glorious Black Death Demon in his hand, but this Glorious Black Death Demon is a little different from Li Xiu's Black Death Demon. It has no crown and its armor is not as gorgeous.
While staring at the Black Death Demon, the Black Death Demon actually looked over here. Li Xiu wanted to hide, but was held down by Ah Gui. Ah Gui shook his head at him, signaling him not to move.
The Black Death Demon looked for a while, and then seemed not to see Li Xiu, and continued to walk around in the cemetery dragging the black shovel.
Li Xiu discovered that the Black Death Demon really seemed unable to see them. The Black Death Demon had clearly seen him several times, but he pretended not to see him.
Several times, the Black Death Demon had already walked past them not far away, but there was still no reaction.
No one knew what the Black Death Demon was looking for. He walked back and forth in the cemetery dragging a black shovel, looking at this grave and sniffing at that grave, as if he was looking for something to eat.
"Could this thing be trying to dig up graves and eat corpses?" Li Xiu thought to himself.
While Li Zheng was thinking about that scene, the Black Death stopped in front of a grave, then swung the shovel vigorously and actually started digging the grave.
"They are really going to dig up the body!" Li Xiu was surprised and turned to look at Ah Gui.
Ah Gui said that there were demons buried under these graves. If the demons were dug out, then they and the Black Death City would be finished.
But looking at his current appearance, he had no intention of stopping it. He just leaned on the grave and watched the Black Death Demon dig the grave.
"This guy, was he trying to fool me before?" Li Xiu thought to himself, but he didn't think it was possible.
The Black Death moved quickly, and soon he had completely dug up the grave, revealing a black coffin inside.
The coffin looked like metal, with a bit of jade luster, and it was unknown what material it was made of. The style was also a bit strange, a weird shape that Li Xiu had never seen before.
when!
The Black Death stuck a shovel into the coffin and pried the lid open with force.
Li Xiu couldn't see what was inside the coffin from here, and wanted to raise his head a little to see what was inside the coffin. But just when he was about to move, Ah Gui held him down again.
Li Xiu had no choice but to wait patiently and not move again.
After the coffin lid was opened, the Black Death threw away the shovel in his hand, reached into the coffin, and quickly grabbed something out of it.
When Li Xiu saw clearly what the Black Death Demon had grabbed, his body trembled suddenly.
What the Black Death pulled out was a corpse, the corpse of a little girl wearing leather boots, vest and a cowboy hat.
"Small steps!" Li Xiu's face looked extremely ugly.
He had always wondered what the relationship was between the City of Black Death and the City of Love. Now it seems that his previous suspicion was not entirely wrong. At least there must be a relationship between the two cities, otherwise how could Xiaobul'er's body appear here.
Li Xiu could clearly see that Xiao Bu'er's body showed no signs of decay, so he must have died not long ago.
And seeing that the head of the corpse was drooping, the cause of death was probably a crushed neck, exactly the same as what he saw in the City of Love.
Xiaobul, who died in the City of Love, was found dead in a cemetery outside the City of Black Death. The two cities must be connected.
"Could it be that the bodies buried in the graves here are all the bodies of the residents of the City of Love? But there are only a few hundred people in the City of Love, and there are thousands of graves here. The number doesn't match. Or is it that the bodies buried in these graves are not just the bodies of the residents of the City of Love?" Li Xiu guessed secretly in his heart.
While Li Xiu was daydreaming, the Black Death Demon had already put Xiao Bu'er's body on the ground, then opened his mouth and was about to eat Xiao Bu'er's body.
How could Li Xiu bear it any longer? He was already feeling uncomfortable for not being able to save Xiao Bu'er and those residents in the City of Love. Now how could he bear to watch Xiao Bu'er's body being eaten by the Black Death Demon?
Ah Gui stretched out his hand to stop Li Xiu, but was pushed away by Li Xiu. The Fire Lotus Sword at his waist flew out automatically, instantly crossing a distance of dozens of meters and slashing towards the head of the Black Death Demon.
The Black Death Demon sensed the arrival of the Fire Lotus Sword, and he reached out and grabbed it. The black shovel returned to his hand. He swung his hand, and the black shovel emitted a black light, sweeping the Fire Lotus Sword away.
Li Xiu flew over and grabbed the hilt of the Fire Lotus Sword, and together with the summoned Jedi Knights, they attacked the Black Death Demon from the left and right.
This Black Death Demon was obviously a super-spiritual being, or even more powerful, possessing the power of light.
He swung the black shovel in his hand again, and the effect of the shovel emitting black light was so strong that it actually shocked the Jedi Knight who had entered the super spiritual state and made him retreat again and again.
Li Xiu held the Fire Lotus Sword in his hand, moving quickly while stabbing out sword lights.
The sword lights continued to shine. The Black Death Demon was also extremely powerful. Black light flashed in his eyes and his speed was incredibly fast. With a sweep of the black shovel, all the fire lotus sword lights were shattered.
"It's really light-based level!" Li Xiu could already see the black flames in the Black Death Demon's body condensing into flashing veins of light.
There was a cross-shaped light pattern on the black shovel that flashed white light. When it was swung, it glowed in the black light, like a twinkling star.
The Black Death Demon's black shovel actually forced Li Xiu and the Jedi Knight to retreat.
Fortunately, Li Xiu used his body to deal with it and did not lose to it. The Jedi Knight actually knew that he could not be defeated, so he kept dodging and looking for opportunities to strike with bloody slash.
Li Xiu's mind moved, and the evil spirit card entered a super spiritual state and merged with his body. The red and blue light vein diagram formed light veins in his body, which immediately increased Li Xiu's combat power to a terrifying level.
Li Xiu held the Fire Lotus Sword, madly injected light energy from the Evil Spirit Card, and slashed at the Black Death Demon with one sword.
The Black Death Demon swung his shovel to meet the attack, and the sword and shovel collided. Light exploded into the sky, and the shock wave blew the grass on the surrounding graves almost sticking to the graves.
However, no matter how violent the shock wave and light explosion were, they were unable to break the grass on the grave, and the grave was not damaged at all.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Li Xiu swung his sword to fight against the Black Death Demon, and was surprised to find that the Black Death Demon actually used the black shovel as a sword, and the battle between them was evenly matched.
The Black Death Demon's swordsmanship was as strong as that of a master. His sword moves were standard, but without any flaws, leaving Li Xiu unable to find any opportunity for a while.
The Black Death Demon was like a master of swordsmanship. Every move he made was as steady as a rock and he didn't give Li Xiu any chance.
Li Xiu is not afraid of those who try to play tricks on him. No matter how fancy they are, it is useless.
However, he had no good way to break this simple swordsmanship immediately. He could only continuously mobilize the power of the evil spirit card, trying to break it by force.
However, the magic light of the Black Death Demon was even stronger than Li Xiu had imagined. Every time Li Xiu's light energy increased, his light energy also increased by one point. No matter how much Li Xiu increased his light energy, the Black Death Demon's light energy was not weaker than his.
"It's useless. You can't beat him in terms of light energy. You have to defeat him with swordsmanship." Ah Gui suddenly reminded.
Li Xiu had no choice but to calm down and stop trying to win by force. Instead, he used swordsmanship to compete with the Black Death Demon.
When masters fight, they fight for every inch, and sometimes the difference between victory and defeat is just a matter of millimeters.
The sound of swords and shovels clashing continued, but the Jedi Knight did not rush forward again. Although he was considered to be at the top of the super-spiritual stage, he had no room to intervene in such a battle.
Li Xiu only hoped to lure the Black Death away, and then let the Jedi Knight take away Xiao Bu'er's body.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The constant collision of swords and shovels caused one shock wave after another, making the cemetery full of colorful lights.
When the red and black magic lights collided, a light explosion was produced that was gorgeous and colorful, and not just black and red.
Li Xiuru is like a robot and generally does not make mistakes. The swordsmanship of the Black Death Demon is similarly simple and unpretentious. Although it is not sharp, it does not reveal any flaws at all.
"This guy's swordsmanship is definitely at the master level... I didn't expect there is such a strong existence among the Black Death Demons. Even the Black Death Demon King doesn't have such wisdom!" Li Xiu was surprised, but the sword in his hand did not pause at all.
Although the Black Death Demon had no flaws, Li Xiu forced his sword to become increasingly powerful.
They were evenly matched at the beginning, but later he just defended himself and was finally stabbed by Li Xiu's sword into the gap of his armor.
The light of the Fire Lotus Sword suddenly blossomed like a lotus in the body of the Black Death Demon, dismembering the Black Death Demon's body from the inside out.
The Black Death Demon's body fell to the ground piece by piece, and Li Xiu was shocked to find that this Black Death Demon was indeed a little different.
The Black Death Demon in the Black Death City has a body made of armor, with black smoke-like demonic flames inside, and no flesh and blood.
Inside the armor of this Black Death Demon was actually a flesh and blood body, and blood was flowing out.
"Didn't I tell you not to make any noise or move no matter what you see? Why didn't you listen to me?" Ah Gui sighed.
"Isn't this already resolved?" Li Xiu said disapprovingly, and also used the tip of the sword to pick off the helmet on the Black Death Demon's head.
"You solved a problem, but caused a bigger trouble." Ah Gui said, but found that Li Xiu's expression was not right.
Li Xiu looked at the face under the helmet. His expression was uncertain and his face looked very ugly.
"Black Knight!" Li Xiu looked at the zombie-like ashen face and was horrified beyond words.
This face was the face of Black Knight. He had just seen it not long ago. Moreover, Black Knight died so tragically at that time, how could he forget it so quickly?
There was no doubt that this face was that of the Black Knight.
"What's going on! Why did the Black Knight turn into the Black Death... Wasn't he smashed to death by the cloaked man? What is going on?" The doubts in Li Xiu's heart were almost overflowing.
"Don't just stand there. Real big trouble is coming." Ah Gui ran over and pulled Li Xiu away.
Li Xiu shook off Ah Gui's hand and turned around to take Xiao Bu'er's body back.
But when he turned around, Li Xiu was dumbfounded. Xiao Bu'er's body actually floated up by itself.
The neck that had been twisted off actually stood up at this moment, the head was twisted strangely, and I don't know when the eyes opened. The purple pupils filled the entire eyes, and the whites of the eyes could not be seen at all. It was indescribably weird.
Li Xiu immediately understood that the big trouble that Ah Gui was talking about was Xiao Bu'er.
Little Bu'er was suspended in the air, his neck twisted strangely, and his eyes seemed not to be fully focused.
"Follow me." Ah Gui pulled Li Xiu again and quickly rushed to the grave where they had been hiding before.
"Come up." Ah Gui jumped directly to the top of the grave and said to Li Xiu.
Li Xiu also jumped up, and the two stood side by side on the grave.
"If you don't want to die, don't go down, otherwise you will die." Ah Gui said while staring at Xiao Bu'er who was still looking around unconsciously in the air.
"What is going on?" Li Xiu stared at Ah Gui and asked.
He really had too many questions in his mind, why was the dead body of Xiao Bu'er here, why did it become like this, why was the dead Black Knight also here, and why did he turn into a Black Death Demon, all of this was too bizarre and weird.
"You killed the ghost-eating demon, and this evil ghost is about to be resurrected." Ah Gui said solemnly, "Now we only have two options. One is to stand on this grave and wait for death. The other is to wait until she kills all the creatures in the Black Death City and then we die."
"Is there no way to survive?" Li Xiu said while looking at Xiao Bu'er who was hanging in the air. Now Xiao Bu'er's eyes had gradually come into focus, and his eyes, filled with purple pupils, were staring at them.
"No, I'm just a useless ghost, and you're just a super spirit. Although your super spirit is somewhat unexpected and can actually kill top-level light-based magic spirits, you are still far inferior to that evil ghost. I'm afraid you can't even withstand her attack." Ah Gui said.
"Who are you? Don't tell me again that you are a lonely ghost who has forgotten everything. If you really have forgotten everything, how can you know these things?" Li Xiu stared at Ah Gui and asked.
"Alas, does it matter who I am? What matters most now is staying alive." Ah Gui sighed, "You are not completely hopeless. After the evil ghost enters the Black Death City, if you can pass through the Black Death City and reach the Black Sea before she kills all the creatures in the Black Death City, you may still have a chance of survival."
"But with the power of that evil ghost, as long as we leave this tomb, it will only take her a moment to kill you, so you can only gamble that you will not be discovered by her when you pass through the Black Death City."
"Aren't you going?" Li Xiu frowned.
"I will die if I leave here." Ah Gui sighed.
While the two were talking, Xiao Bu'er's neck kept twisting back and forth, and the broken bones seemed to have connected again, and he looked much more normal.
Xiao Bu'er suddenly raised her head, opened her mouth and let out a scream. The ghost-like sound made it impossible for Li Xiu to connect her with the cute little girl in the City of Love.
As Xiao Bu'er screamed, her whole body was covered in purple flames. The graves in the entire cemetery also burned with purple flames, burning all the grass on the graves. Each grave looked like a pile of purple bonfires.
Only the grave under the feet of Li Xiu and A Gui did not emit purple flames. This scene surprised Li Xiu a little.
Such a terrifying flame, which is released continuously without any sign of stopping, is no longer something that the light-based level can do.
This corpse-like Xiaobu is probably at least at the Soul Casting level.
"It's really hell." Li Xiu sighed helplessly.
Xiao Bu'er was floating in the air like a ghost, drifting towards them, his eyes fixed on the grave.
Just as Xiao Bu'er was about to float above the grave, she suddenly heard a scream. It was as if Xiao Bu'er had hit an invisible electric net. White electric snakes flashed on her body and bounced her out.
However, those white light snakes soon disappeared, and Xiao Buer floated back again, but this time she did not rush directly to the grave. Instead, she floated around the grave, with the purple flames on her body constantly burning.
"Why is this grave so special?" Li Xiu asked Ah Gui.
"I don't know either. This grave is neither the largest nor the smallest in the cemetery. It is ordinary and nothing special. But it is the only safe place in the cemetery. No demons or evil spirits can get close to it." said Ah Gui.
"Is there something buried in this grave that can restrain her? If we dig out the things in the grave, will we have a chance to suppress her?" Li Xiu said as he looked at the grave under his feet.
"What if there's an even more terrifying evil ghost down there?" Ah Gui asked back.
Li Xiu also knew that this possibility was higher, so he had to give up the idea for the time being.
"Let's wait and see. According to past experience, she will go to the Black Death City in a while. You still have a chance to escape before she kills all the creatures in the Undead City." Ah Gui said.
Ah Gui obviously didn't know that Li Xiu was a human from Earth and thought he was also from the Demon Country.
In fact, Li Xiu only needs to go back to the city gate, reach the square, blow out the longevity lamp, and then he can leave here.
But Jani and the members of the Royal Guard were still in the Black Death City. If they let the devil-like Xiaobu enter the city first, they would be dead.
It was naturally impossible for Li Xiu to sacrifice his own life to save them, but even if he did not plan for them, it was also a question whether he would be discovered by Xiao Bu'er after entering the city. If he was discovered by Xiao Bu'er before reaching the small square, Li Xiu did not know whether he would have a chance to reach the small square alive.
"What about you?" Li Xiu asked Ah Gui. He didn't believe that Ah Gui would really wait here to die.
"I am just a lonely ghost. If you leave, she won't come back to kill me." Ah Gui said, but his face looked a little strange. He stared at Xiao Bu'er who was close at hand and said, "This is strange. According to past experience, she should have gone to the Black Death City. Why is she still staying here to guard us?"
