Hearing the news that Bailichi had told them all of a sudden, the four of Wen Qiao all had strange expressions on their faces.
But just for a moment, Ning Yuzhou restrained his expression, and said gently and sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Baili, for telling me, without you, maybe we would have waited forever."
It was rare for Pei Qiyu to say nothing, no matter how he evaluated Bailichi in his heart, he would not refuse to give up the vested benefits because he owed him or other reasons.
Baili Chi didn't care much and said: "It's nothing, even if I don't tell you, you should be aware of it."
Ning Yuzhou just smiled, and didn't answer the words, he just said: "No matter what, we all accept this love. If we can get into the Thirteenth Mansion by chance, if there is a need, just mention it."
"That's really great." Bailichi said happily.
Seeing him smiling so pink that his gums were exposed, he was so stupid that Pei Qiyu and Su Molan didn't know what to say about this man.
After Baili Chi left, the four of them began to wait for dark.
The sky in Huangu Town was getting dark very quickly. Almost in the evening, the sky began to darken. Every household lit up bone lanterns. Looking down from the mid-air, it was like a sprinkling of stars in the darkness.
Huangu Town tonight seems to be no different, there are still bursts of bustling hustle and bustle from the streets in the distance, just like daytime.
Wen Qiao stood in front of the window, looking at the night sky where the stars and moons had vanished, that strange feeling struck her heart again, as if there was some kind of slight movement in the wind.
A familiar aura appeared behind her, and an arm passed her and pressed it against the window, as if wrapping her in his arms.
Wen Qiao raised her head to look at the man who appeared behind her, his breath completely enveloped her, and at the same time interrupted the message from the wind.
Wen Qiao stared at his graceful chin, which was full of fortitude, and said, "Husband, do you feel that the night sky in Huangu Town these days is always indescribably weird."
Ning Yuzhou said: "I didn't see it, but if you say it's weird, it should be."
Seeing that he believed in herself without the slightest doubt, Wen Qiao was very happy and pursed her lips into a smile.
The awakened magical bloodlines of the two are different. His magical bloodline is more for assistance, while her is for perception, and she is extremely sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment.
"What else did you find?" Ning Yuzhou asked.
Wen Qiao thought for a while, "There is still wind..."
"wind?"
"Well, it's the wind! There seems to be a different message in the wind, but unfortunately I can't tell it apart." Wen Qiao was a little distressed. She could clearly feel something strange, but there was a hazy veil in front of her. unclear.
Ning Yuzhou looked thoughtfully at Huangu Town in the night.
The bones are in the light, and the bones are in the night... There is no doubt that the dry bones represent the Thirteen Houses of the Dry Bones, and the night is night. These are easy to understand, but the combination of the two is very puzzling.
At this moment, Pei Qiyu and Su Molan came over and told them that there was movement on the second floor.
"I saw them leave the inn," said the Pleiades.
"Now?" Wen Qiao asked, and couldn't help but glanced at the night outside the window again. Foreign practitioners like them, who are not in Huangu Town, usually don't go out at night, which is more like a tacit agreement.
"Should we go out and have a look too?" Su Molan asked, feeling a little anxious in her heart.
Bailichi said that tonight would be the night of the full moon, but they had been looking at it since it was dark, not to mention the full moon, they couldn't even see the moon, it was obviously still a cloudy day, and every day in the past was different. no different.
But Bailichi probably wouldn't lie to them about this kind of thing.
Pei Qiyu, Wen Qiao, and Su Xing looked at Ning Yuzhou at the same time, as if they were waiting for him to make a decision.
Unknowingly, whenever something happened, everyone would seek Ning Yuzhou's opinion first, with him as the leader. When Pei Qiyu came to his senses, he realized his subconscious behavior, secretly pursed his lips, but didn't say anything.
Ning Yuzhou didn't hesitate for too long, and immediately said: "Let's go out too."
The four set off with a weapon spirit and a small iron-eating beast.
When leaving, Ning Yuzhou suddenly said: "Take the bone lamp."
Wen Qiao held the bone lamp on the table, Pei Qiyu also brought the bone lamp from the next room, and the four of them walked down the stairs.
In the quiet night, the creaking sound of the bone ladder was extremely ear-piercing, and the eerie atmosphere invisibly increased a bit, as if it was weighing heavily on people's hearts.
When they came to the lobby on the first floor, they looked at the counter, but they didn't see Mrs. Hua.
Aunt Hua is the owner of the inn. She usually has nothing to do. She will stay in the lobby of the inn, or squeeze behind the counter, full of presence. They found that she rarely left the inn, as if waiting for something.
The four of them didn't see Aunt Hua, nor did they try to find her, they just opened the door and went out.
When the door was opened, a gust of damp wind blew in.
Pei Qiyu's gaze became sharp instantly, and he looked out of the alley, and said, "The wind is blowing from the street."
Pleiades and Wen Gungun stood next to Wenqiao with some fear. They had been in Huangu Town for so long, and they hadn't gone out at night. sweet dreams.
"It's very humid." Su Molan continued, raising her hand to touch her face, and it felt moist for a while.
The existence of this moisture is very strange, but there is no fog rising in Huangu Town, it is as usual, but the moisture sticking to the body, as if the nearby water source is very abundant. But Huangu Town is built on a mass grave, and within a hundred miles is a barren mountain, not to mention a river, not even a puddle.
The four of them didn't dare to be careless. Holding the bone lamp, they walked through the alley and came to the only street in Huangu Town.
Both sides of the street are very lively, the lights are brilliant, the doors of every shop are wide open, and the chatter and laughter of practitioners can be heard inside.
However, when they saw clearly the situation in the various shops on both sides of the street, they couldn't help feeling chills.
Through the open door, the inside was empty and there was no one. Those noisy voices are obviously from the bone house, and it can also simulate the voices of different practitioners, and there is a kind of noise that belongs to the world everywhere.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would almost have thought that the place was full of guests, and those who were drinking were talking as usual, discussing the new things that happened in the town recently.
It turned out that every night, the excitement they heard came from this way.
This scene was so weird that they felt chills in their hearts.
Looking at the bone houses making various noises and movements on both sides of the street, they soon discovered that those sounds came from between the bones that made up the bone house, successfully simulating the sounds of daytime practitioners during their activities.
"Where are the people in the town?" Su Molan asked softly, her voice trembling.
There are not many cultivators in Huangu Town, and even because of its special nature, the cultivators accommodated include spiritual cultivators, evil cultivators, and demon cultivators. People died inexplicably, but Huangu Town still has a large population.
So many people suddenly disappeared as if overnight, leaving only a white bone town.
Ning Yuzhou and the others naturally didn't know either.
They looked around, trying to find some clues.
The third alley is not far from the entrance of the town. Wen Qiao subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the town. However, what surprised her was that in the past, she could see the mass graves outside the town when she looked up. The winding bone road leads to nowhere.
And the other direction is also an endless bone road.
The four people who came out of the alley seemed to be standing in the middle of a bone road that extended infinitely to both sides. There was no end on both sides, and there was no end in sight.
"Which way to go?" Pei Qiyu asked the question on everyone's mind.
The entrance to Bonetown is gone, becoming an infinitely winding Bone Road.
Ning Yuzhou turned his head to look at Wen Qiao, and suddenly asked, "Grandma, which way do you think we should go?"
Pei Qiyu and Su Molan looked at Wen Qiao at the same time. Although they didn't understand why Ning Yuzhou let Wen Qiao decide, they didn't ask much.
Wen Qiao listened to the sound of the wind, and closed his eyes to catch the message brought by the wind.
After a while, she opened her eyes, pointed in the direction of the entrance of Huangu Town, and said, "Let's go this way."
"good."
Ning Yuzhou took her hand without any hesitation, and walked towards the winding bone road at the entrance of Bone Town.
Su Molan and Pei Qiyu quickly followed them.
The bone road is very long, winding away, gradually the bone houses on both sides have disappeared, leaving a piece of blackness, the pure blackness can even blind the eyes of practitioners, and the sight and spiritual sense cannot penetrate.
Only the faint light of the bone lamps they held in their hands illuminated the path under their feet.
Suddenly, the light on the bone road brightened again.
The four looked up at the night sky, and suddenly found that the moon had come out.
The bleak moonlight illuminates the bone road, allowing people to clearly see the shape of every bone under their feet. The combination of moonlight and bones makes this world even more eerie and strange.
"It turns out that tonight is really a full moon night." Su Molan murmured, thinking that Huangu Town was incredible.
Who would have thought that the moon would appear in such a place? Huangu Town is indeed as those practitioners said, there is no sun and stars and moon, it only appears in another place.
But they still have no way to penetrate the law.
Even though Wen Qiao felt something, it was still covered by a layer of veil, and she only had a vague idea.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the sound of splashing water was heard.
Pei Qiyu's cultivation was the highest, and he caught the sound of water at the first time, and said cautiously: "There is the sound of water in front, from that sound, it should be a river."
The four hurried on their way.
As the sound of the water got closer and closer, they finally saw the end of the bone road, where there was a towering and tall door, which suddenly appeared in the darkness, but it was impossible to ignore it.
In front of the door stands a huge bone monument, on which are five bloody characters flying like dragons and phoenixes.
Under the moonlight, they could clearly see the blood dripping around the big bloody characters, like tears of blood, falling down unbearably. Obviously those five characters are very weird, but when they saw it, they instantly understood what it represented:
Withered Bones Thirteen Houses.
Looking closely, this majestic gate is made of several big bones. The shape of the big bones looks like a human thigh bone, but the area is magnified nearly a hundred times.
After everyone looked at it for a while, Ning Yuzhou said, "Go in."
A group of people walked into the Thirteen House of Dry Bones.
Tonight seems to be a full moon night, and the moonlight is extraordinarily bright, allowing them to clearly see this hidden world.
A river appeared ahead, and the sound of gurgling water made the world quieter.
When everyone came to the river, the first thing they saw was the fine white sand on the river bank, which was extraordinarily light and fine, without any impurities. However, if you look closely, you will find the true face of this white sand—it is clearly bone meal that has been crushed into fine powder.
Both sides of the river are white sand like this, how many bones are needed to make it
Xu Shi stayed in Huangu Town for too long, and lived in a bone house made of human bones every day. The four of them accepted all this well and did not feel uncomfortable.
Looking around, they soon found that the river was the only way, and they had to cross it.
Ning Yuzhou took out a bone boat.
Both Su Molan and Pei Qiyu were a little confused, and asked, "Where did this bone boat come from?"
"I refined it."
When the bone boat was thrown onto the river, it quickly turned into a boat of normal size, exuding an aura of earth-level aura. Only then did the two understand that the ship was hollow and bone-shaped, theoretically speaking, it was clearly a spirit weapon, and it had nothing to do with evil weapons or the like.
"Aren't you afraid of being made fun of if you do this?" Pei Qiyu was a little bit dumbfounded. He didn't understand Ning Yuzhou's brain circuit. Even if it was weird, he didn't have to directly refine the boat into the shape of a bone, right
A discerning person can see the clue at a glance.
Ning Yuzhou said casually: "Although it is a spiritual weapon, it has many demon bones incorporated into it, so it can be considered a bone ship."
Although the quality of these demon bones is not high, they can be regarded as the characteristics of Fuhe Bone Town - the only discrepancy is the demon bones instead of human bones, so it shouldn't matter.
Facts have proved that boats made from demon bones can also be used on this river.
They did not control the bone ship and let the ship go with the water.
Time passed bit by bit, Wen Qiao put his hand on the long whip around his waist, and couldn't help but look at the sky. The full moon hanging high in the sky has not shown any signs of sinking westward, as if frozen in the sky, The moonlight illuminates the place.
"Miss Wen, have you noticed that several hours have passed, and it will be dawn soon." Su Molan walked to Wen Qiao's side and said softly.
Wen Qiao nodded, thinking: "Maybe the Thirteenth Mansion of Dry Bones is always full moon night."
Su Molan felt that her guess was very possible. Looking at the waterway in front of her, this river was just like the previous bone road, which was endless. When the bone boat passed by, ripples appeared on the water surface, and the full moon reflected in the water followed the ripples. Swaying, the pale moon seemed to be torn apart.
wrong!
Su Molan reacted quickly, and chopped a white and miserable skeleton that jumped out of the river back into the river with a sword.
In an instant, Wen Qiao and Pei Qiyu quickly called out their weapons and shot down the skeletons that jumped out of the river back into the river, and Ning Yuzhou quickly deployed on the boat.
But in an instant, the entire river seemed to be filled with countless skeletons.
These skeletons are white and miserable, not ferocious.
Their movements are exceptionally flexible, and the dark eye sockets are shining with blood-colored light. Whenever they look at the eye sockets, people have the illusion of being stared at by them.
The bone boat lit up with a spiritual light, and the skeletons jumping out of the river were blocked by the spiritual light, preventing them from going any further.
Only then did Pei Qiyu and Su Molan discover that Ning Yuzhou had already set up a defense formation on the bone boat, which could obviously block the attack of the skeletons emerging from the river.
After attacking for a while, the skeletons found no way to break through the bone ship's defense, and the two rows of teeth moved one by one, making a rattling sound, giving people the illusion that they were communicating.
Wen Qiao and Su Molan stared at them vigilantly.
"What are these things?" Pei Qiyu frowned and asked, and found that the river was full of these skeletons, which really made people feel bad.
"It's a bone demon." Ning Yuzhou said.
Everyone looked at the skeletons in the river, and felt that the name Bone Demon was quite appropriate.
"It seems that the Thirteenth Mansion of Dry Bones is not very safe." Su Molan frowned slightly, looking ahead with some worry, feeling that the road ahead was full of dangers, and she didn't know if the trip would go smoothly.
Pei Qiyu glanced at her, stroked his chin and said, "I'm curious, where did those people in Huangu Town go?"
If it is said that when they left the inn, they still felt strange when they didn't see Aunt Hua. Until I saw the situation on the street clearly, I had an intuition that Mrs. Hua should be no longer in Huangu Town like those people who disappeared.
How could there be such a strange place in Hunyuan Continent
"The bones are returned in the light, and the dead bones are in the night." Ning Yuzhou said suddenly, "Their whereabouts should be related to these two sentences."
