Chapter 387: Is there a fish that slipped through the net?
Followed Xingyun all the way.
The soul-calling banner helped them avoid taking detours.
They were taken directly to an abandoned city. The city walls were in ruins and even the gate was nowhere to be found.
It was overgrown with weeds and lifeless.
When Su Ning saw the corrupt words "Foreign City" on the city wall, her pupils shrank. They had actually met by chance.
Came to the junior brother’s lair.
I'm afraid they have already distanced themselves from the hustle and bustle of the human world.
Because the strange city is located in the most remote place in the human world, and the prophecy clan lives in seclusion, the soul-summoning flag played an indispensable role in finding this place.
Otherwise they would never find it.
"Uncle..."
Lu Jinnian obviously recognized this city. Su Ning leaned over and said, "Isn't this the strange city we saw in the secret realm?"
Alien city.
The strange city appeared three times, once in a dream and once in a secret place.
And this time.
"Yeah." Lu Jinnian's face was solemn. He appeared in this strange city again and again. He didn't know whether it was a coincidence or intentional.
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
They'd better be careful.
Xing Yun immediately understood what the two people were talking about: "Is it in the secret realm of my ghost domain forbidden land?"
The term foreign city is not unfamiliar.
There was a massacre in the city at that time. As the lord of the Ghost City, he naturally heard about it and had an intersection with one of them.
Pity.
No one in the city escaped the fate of being wiped out.
"Yes." Lu Jinnian nodded. Xing Yun was not an outsider, so he did not express any of his doubts to him.
"Appearing in this place twice made me feel very strange. It gave me the illusion that someone was manipulating it behind the scenes."
For the first time in my life.
There is a feeling of being controlled by others.
Su Ning: “…” That’s right, he was controlled by his own nephew.
This is most likely related to Shi Xingxiu.
She met him on her way out of the cultivation world a while ago, and he abducted her. It is very likely that he is hiding around her.
I don't know what's being planned.
I guess the soul-summoning flag is his assistant. Let's take it one step at a time and see why that guy brought them to the foreign city.
"Thinking too much."
Xing Yun did not have this feeling and comforted him: "The Soul Summoning Banner brought us here. No one has the ability to control it."
"I hope so." Lu Jinnian sighed.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu came to Su Ning's side, looking nervous: "Senior Sister, are we going to go into this place?"
Su Ning glanced at him.
Could it be that this kid has also heard the rumors about this city?
"what happened?"
"Can you please not go in?" Mu Xiaoyu looked uneasy.
"why?"
He looked left and right, and finally whispered: "So many people died here, what if it's haunted?"
That tragedy.
Not only the human world was shocked, but their cultivation world was also shocked.
Su Ning was surprised: "Are you afraid?"
"Kind of."
"You weren't afraid when you went to the ghost realm to marry a female ghost before, so why are you afraid of this?" She directly brought up his last behavior.
Are people who practice Taoism afraid of ghosts?
If this matter were to get out, he would no longer be able to stay in the world of cultivation.
He realized it later.
"Yes."
"..."
In this way, several people entered the strange city. The degree of dilapidatedness of the strange city was the same as that of the secret realm. The only difference was that there was no funeral procession.
There was no such boy either.
That young man was also Shi Xingxiu. It was unknown which appearance was the real him. After all, four people had four faces.
Shi Xingxiu.
It was Fu Shi.
The young man from the foreign city, and the man who kidnapped him, all four of them have different faces, probably from head to toe.
Only the third leg is the same.
What other surprises does he have that she doesn't know about?
"This way."
Xing Yun has been leading the way in front, because the soul-summoning flag has had a strong reaction since entering the foreign city, pointing to a certain place.
There is not a single good building in the city.
I do not know how long it has been.
Led by the soul-calling banners, they came to the wasteland in the north of the city. No, it was not a wasteland, but a cemetery with cemeteries everywhere.
There aren't many cemeteries.
But it forms a pattern similar to a formation.
These places, including the cemetery, do not exist either in dreams or in secret realms, so I guess I have never been there.
Looking at the cemetery, Lu Jinnian saw something was wrong: "No, there is no one alive in the city, why is there a tomb?"
Logically speaking.
They are all dead, so how can there be a grave? At most, their bodies will be lying in the wild. Besides, no one will build a grave for them because they don't know them.
Those targeting them are not ordinary people.
No one would offend another party just to build a tomb.
"Could there be a fish that slipped through the net?" Xing Yun guessed.
His guess was very accurate, at least for Su Ning.
He can go have his fortune told.
Over there, Su Ning made an unexpected discovery. She found that the name on the tombstone in the middle was a little special.
My father's tomb.
My Mother's Tomb
Except for these two, the rest of the tombstones have no words on them. They are tombs without words. It seems that the identities of these two are a bit special.
“These two are…” Su Ning hissed.
Shi Xingxiu is the one who holds the prophecy, so his identity must be noble, which is almost the same as the special nature of his tomb.
Could these be his parents?
Didn't his parents die when he was young? Oh, it should be before the massacre, when he was a child.
These are all possible.
wrong.
Now is not the time to think about these things. If these were Shi Xingxiu's parents, given their unclear and disgusting relationship.
Is this meeting the parents?
"..."
Thinking of this, Su Ning's expression became indescribably ugly.
"What's wrong, Junior Brother?" Seeing her unhappy expression, Lu Jinnian couldn't help but worry: "Are you not used to it?"
"Then let's leave here. It's not good to see too many tombs."
"It's okay..." Su Ning shook her head and returned to her previous expression. She just hoped that she was just overthinking and it wasn't something crazy.
What parents are you meeting?
Their relationship hasn't reached that stage yet, and Shi Xingxiu is a villain, so maybe he was just acting on her whim for the moment.
After the novelty wore off, I let her go.
"How about we..." Lu Jinnian wanted to say that they should just leave.
The action aggregates were also discovered.
He squatted in front of the middle tomb and beckoned them over: "Xiao Nian, come and take a look. These paper money are the most recent."
I saw.
There are some unburned and unblown paper money in front of each tomb. The paper money is the most recent and looks very conspicuous.
Is there really a fish that slipped through the net?
"It was burned recently." Lu Jinnian also looked at the paper money. It seemed that someone really came to pay tribute recently.
“It’s definitely a fish that slipped through the net.”
"possible."
"Then what can we do?" Xing Yun stared at him eager to try.
There is a kind of talisman in the world of cultivation.
It should be possible to track down who it is, it's just a little bit difficult. But if there are clues, it doesn't matter if it's a little bit difficult.
"No, burn it." Lu Jinnian denied his idea.
It can be tracked.
But there are things that that person has touched, and the paper money that he touched is probably burned up. That person is definitely not that stupid.
Xing Yun didn’t have any good ideas for the time being, so he sighed, “That’s right.”
Su Ning, who didn't know what mechanism he had touched, looked at the abnormality under his feet and said, "Uncle Master, we can go rob the tomb now."
