The northwest line used to be a place where humans and monsters lived together. Later, after the war, a line was simply drawn from the northwest. The area close to the Central Plains was where monsters lived, and the area far from the Central Plains was where humans lived.

Throughout history, this place has been a battleground for monsters and humans. Just by sitting here and thinking about it, Liu An can think of several famous wars that have taken place here.

Of course, the reason why this place is so chaotic is not only because it was once a place where humans and monsters lived together, but also because there are many... very famous places here.

Liu An thought about the scenic spot he visited in the morning. As expected, the place had been closed and outsiders could not get in. He stood at the door and took a few photos.

This was his first time to the Northwest, and also his first time to see the historic site on the Northwest Line. However, the impression left on him by this visit was not very deep.

I thought I would be able to see something real when I went in, but when I actually went in I found out that everyone had to carry a badge and the road was surrounded by iron fences, so you couldn't escape the designated route. There were also police officers and Taoist priests with real guns surrounding the place... Of course, there are also a lot of local shamans in the northwest, more than the Taoist priests on guard.

Every time we arrived at a place, the tour guide urged us to hurry up, and finally we saw a small dry well about ten meters above the ground, with a circle of heads surrounding it... Only then did Liu An realize that this small dry well was actually a replica.

There were actually quite a few people surrounding this replica. Liu An even saw quite a few foreigners. He was 1.80 meters tall, but he stood there for a long time and didn't see anything. He only saw a group of people selling souvenirs nearby.

So, traveling is not that reliable after all... Liu An shook his head, looking at the wandering cultivators around him who were eager to move. Just as he was thinking, another person suddenly ran in hurriedly, "We're here, we've reached the line!"

Liu An put down his teacup and looked up at the sky. As long as he entered a line, he could see the city. In the distance, he heard the Taoists shouting in surprise.

Suddenly, a thick black smoke appeared from the horizon, accompanied by a sinister aura.

This black smoke was like a sandstorm unique to the northwest, sweeping in from the horizon, as if it was going to engulf the bustling city below...

Liu An's eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and he even stood up unconsciously like the people around him. Although relatively speaking, he must have seen more Hundred Demons Night Parade than those casual cultivators around him.

The people in the hotel gradually stopped drinking and chatting.

They raised their heads together and looked at the sky. Faint sounds of exclamations began to be heard, accompanied by excited screams.

People quickly began to feel an intangible excitement about this scenery, because everyone knew that this was a sight that would only be seen once in a lifetime, and being able to sit here and watch it at this moment was, in a sense, witnessing history.

For humans today, this kind of thing is more novel than frightening. After all, everyone knows that the monsters are not here to fight this time... and this is not ancient times. Even if they do fight, humans are not afraid, and the police with real guns over there are no pushovers.

Ah...by the way, will there be missiles or something like that being sent to this place...or nuclear bombs? Liu An suddenly thought.

Nuclear bombs are unlikely, but missiles... I'm not sure. The killing power of these monsters is too great, so humans must have some backup plans.

The people around were in a state of mind as if they were watching a lunar eclipse that only happens once in a thousand years. Soon, there were exclamations from the people and the sound of cameras flashing.

Because the scene before us is so shocking, and even just the tip of the iceberg is revealed, it is clear that this is not a traditional parade of one hundred demons...

Today's weather forecast has reported that cities along the northwest line will have heavy snow, so people must reduce the frequency of going out. However, this is the provincial capital after all, so at this time, there still seem to be a lot of pedestrians on the street.

The dark clouds engulfed the brightly lit buildings and the cars below, which really made people feel uneasy. Although Liu An knew that the monsters had no bad intentions this time, the pedestrians on the street should not be able to see the dark clouds.

But looking at the black clouds engulfing the tall buildings, he was completely unable to control his fear.

The black cloud rolled in like a sandstorm, and its speed was unstoppable.

The whole city has been awakened.

…

When Yuan Yuanyuan stood on the clamp, she was completely confused.

She looked around and saw that everything was pitch black. Even the carp in front of her that used to glow had now turned pure black.

When the carp were still golden red, they looked festive, but when they turned black, they looked just like the monsters that frightened children in stories.

The black air around them spread faster and faster, just like ink dripping into water. Even the original night sky was not as dark as the ink around them at this moment.

For a moment, Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she couldn't see anything around her, but when red spots began to gradually light up around her, she suddenly realized something.

The red light, like a firefly, began to light up gradually in the darkness. Yuan Yuanyuan was confused for a long time, touched her eyes, and stared hard for a long time. When her eyes finally became extremely dry, she finally... burst out a pair of red eyes.

……oops?

Yuan Yuanyuan...well, she herself didn’t know how she managed to hold it in, she just wondered if she could hold it in, and she actually did.

Hmm...it seems like a very rough method, so is it because your eyes are hurting so much that you are protesting?

She wanted to turn her head away, but suddenly she thought of the situation behind her, so she shuddered and turned her head back.

Well, forget it... Definitely don’t read the latter part, it will make you scared.

"I never thought that I would be able to participate in a Hundred Demons Night Parade with you in my lifetime." A smiling old voice came from the side, "Maybe this time, we can give humans a scare?"

"...Didn't the humans receive the list in advance?" Yuan Yuanyuan was silent for a long time and suddenly asked.

"No, no, no... No, they received the original version, but you were a temporary member of the group, so you were not on the original list. Later, we considered you a guest." The old man said, "But the humans did ask you to join us for the first time, and their attitude was very sincere, so I don't think they would mind if you suddenly showed up."

"..." Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the heavy demonic aura below. Strangely enough, after her eyes lit up, she could actually vaguely see the scene below through the black mist.

...In a moment, we will jump from this height, together.

...A live-action version of PUBG?

That’s not right, there’s no parachute!

Yuan Yuanyuan finally couldn't help but glance back, but it was too quick and she didn't dare to look for long. She just caught a glimpse of a pair of red eyes staring at her.

She quickly turned her head back, not daring to think about how many monsters were behind her.

"Now, you can release your demonic energy." The old demon next to him suddenly sighed, "We just passed the second line... Maybe you didn't recognize it as the second line? Now this place has already changed."

Yuan Yuanyuan felt inexplicably panicked.

The main thing is that she really doesn't know anything. At this moment, she feels like she is just doing whatever others say, like a puppet on a string who knows nothing.

However, compared to knowing nothing, she prefers the feeling of being a puppet. At least she is not afraid of doing anything embarrassing.

I felt the icy temperature behind me. It was the evil spirit of other monsters. It was their evil spirit that created this bottomless black ink.

Yuan Yuanyuan silently began to release her evil spirit.

She didn't dare release it all at once, but just a little bit at a time, with a tentative feeling.

Yuan Yuanyuan herself had never done such a thing as a hundred ghosts parading at night... She was now like Lin Daiyu who had just entered the Grand View Garden, and even drinking a sip of tea had to depend on how others acted.

Now someone is telling her what to do.

Then... do it.

…

At the very front of the bow stood a huge monster dressed in black.

He was rather thin, but at this moment, no monster dared to step forward.

In fact, when he appeared just now, the monsters around him were completely silent.

He had not been seen on the ship for seven whole days, and only at this moment did the monsters on the ship finally confirm that he was actually on the ship.

Someone behind him swallowed quietly.

The boat whizzed past the city... When it arrived at Erdaokou, someone breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, the whole ship seemed to be immersed in ice water.

It’s hard to describe what that feeling was like. Anyway, at that moment, some of the little monsters couldn’t even move. It took a long time before they slowly adapted to the situation.

A boy with cat eyes at the back took a deep breath. A tall boy next to him said, "Look, what did I say? I told you not to follow me. In order to take care of you, I have to release some of my evil spirit."

There seemed to be a streak of red ink in the front, which suddenly dripped into the surrounding ink and then slowly began to spread out...

The ink gradually spread out and merged into the surrounding black, and slowly, it began to turn black itself.

The temperature around was just slightly cool, but in that instant, it suddenly became freezing cold.

Some of the little monsters at the back were frozen to death and shivered.

But actually... Yuan Yuanyuan herself didn't feel anything. She suddenly felt that the temperature that had just made her feel a little cold was actually starting to warm up, and even her hands and feet were starting to warm up.

"...Where are we?" Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly turned around and asked with dead eyes.

I don’t know why, but after releasing the evil spirit just now, she was not panicked at all... After all, her hands and feet started to warm up.

The reason she asked this question was because she really couldn't see clearly below.

"We are almost at... the Third Line." The old man next to him said slowly, "Once we reach the Third Line, we can go down together. There is a human delegation waiting to welcome us down there."

Yuan Yuanyuan closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the wind in her ears.

Her demonic aura has not yet been fully released, but now she suddenly feels that... releasing it like this is a bit pretentious...

"Huh?" Suddenly someone pointed at something strange and asked, "What's going on?"

Liu An raised his head and looked in the direction the human was pointing.

Almost in an instant, he saw a wisp of red smoke appearing in the rolling black clouds. The red smoke was so violent that it took a lot of effort to blend into the surrounding black clouds.

Liu An noticed that the faces of the people around him suddenly froze. Someone asked in a low voice, "What is this..."

"Red? What's going on?" someone whispered.

"A bit... a bit like..." Some people hesitated to speak, but others understood what he meant.

In fact, the monsters' Night Parade of One Hundred Demons usually show their full strength at the beginning, and the northwest line is no exception.

However, there was one time... that time is written in the books, the only exception in history...

It was that time on the Northwest Front.

That time, when the monsters lost a line, they chose to release their demonic energy again and again. On that occasion, the demonic energy they released was also as red as blood...

That time was during wartime, and this unexpected Night Parade of One Hundred Demons confused the humans, who had no time to react and could only watch the monsters arrive.

And this time...the monsters actually want to recreate the scene of that year?

Although we are not in wartime and doing this now would not have the same intimidating effect as it did back then, it was one of the rare times in the history of monsters that the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons was not held according to the customary rules.

However, that one was more deeply rooted in people's hearts than any other One Hundred Demons Night Parade.

Liu An's eyes narrowed.

That Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is not only famous among monsters, but also has profound meaning among humans.

So...if someone wants to imitate this classic, it will most likely be a thankless task, just like the ugly woman imitating the beautiful woman.

So this time, is it just a case of the ugly woman imitating the beautiful woman, or...

Liu An's eyes suddenly widened.

The wind around us suddenly became freezing cold.

Suddenly, a huge head appeared on the horizon... It was invisible, but it looked like a roaring face appearing on the horizon.

The people who had been taking pictures next to me suddenly fell silent.

Some people slowly took down their mobile phones and began to slowly retreat, while others quietly picked up their weapons and hid far away from the window.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire pub became strange.
