The Black Tower is a dead place in the Demon Cult.
Although it is called a 'tower', it is not actually a tower, but a very common two-story wing house from the outside.
On Cangyun Continent, there is a tower that never returns, which is called the Ghost Tower by the world. No one knows what is inside, because those who go in never come out again.
The Demon Sect also has such a place. I remember that when it was first named, Lou Gu Xiu meant it with irony. Xiaogui Tower is a tower, not a pagoda, so he named the two-story wing rooms the "Black Tower".
Similarly, the Black Tower can only be entered but cannot be exited. Even some demon cultivators who entered the Black Tower by mistake have disappeared since then.
The black tower was dark and cold, like the entrance to hell, a very cold and gloomy place. Qi Yan woke up from the cold not long after being thrown in.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the surroundings were dark. Qi Yan groped around on the ground in a daze. Suddenly he felt something and pulled hard. With the sound of a collision like falling dominoes, Qi Yan saw clearly with a little light. It was a skeleton that had been dried, and what he was holding in his hand was his tattered clothes.
Qi Yan: "... I'm sorry, I just want to cover myself with a quilt." After saying that, he picked up the skeleton and put it back in place.
Completely awake, he stood up, looked around, and found that this was an octagonal building in Hunan, with two rows of stairs on both sides that could go up to the second floor. The first floor was all filled with dead bodies, which seemed to have been dried over the years.
He stood up and waved his sleeves, raising a burst of dust. Qi Yan choked and coughed, looking at this strange place with a confused expression.
After a while, Qi Yan touched his forehead depressedly and whispered softly, "The leader of the Demon Cult lives here? Oh my god, he is so friendly to the people..."
After taking just two steps, he stumbled over another corpse lying on the wall, and Qi Yan kicked his calf bone a long way away.
After jogging all the way to pick up the leg bone, Qi Yan put it back in its original position embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's too dark and I couldn't see clearly. I'll give you some paper money when I get out."
Suddenly, a huge creature flashed across the darkness like lightning. Qi Yan's nerves twitched. He raised his eyes and looked over, but saw nothing.
"Oh, there is obviously something, but why can't I see it..." Qi Yan scratched his head, turned around, and pointed at other corpses on the ground as if he suddenly realized, "Hey? Could it be that you also want me to burn paper money? That's easy to say, The last thing I lack is money.”
After speaking, Qi Yan waved his hands generously and prepared to walk up the stairs to the second floor.
The sandalwood steps are covered with thick dust, and you will leave a clear footprint when you walk up.
It was safe to reach the second floor. As soon as he went up, Qi Yan was shocked by the sheets of ancient books.
The octagonal building is not very large, and you can see it all at a glance. The eight sides of the second floor are covered with bookshelves as high as the ceiling, filled with all kinds of ancient books.
Qi Yan walked around the tripod and saw many books that he wanted to read but could not buy.
"This, this is really..." Picking up a book and reading a few pages, Qi Yan couldn't hide the excitement in his heart and shouted excitedly.
"The Demon Cult is great! I want to live here!"
…
[Host, please be aware that an unknown object is approaching. ]
While reading a miscellaneous note fearlessly, Qi Yan felt a gust of cold wind coming from behind him. He paused and turned around very naturally...
A bloody mouth occupied his sight, with sharp fangs and glowing red eyes facing Qi Yan. Looking out of the corner of his eye, he saw smooth black fur, four claws like a hooked eagle, and a very large body. When he stood upright, he was as tall as an adult man...
"Ah!" Qi Yan shouted, and the unknown object seemed startled and roared louder than Qi Yan.
The roar sounded like the earth was shattering, comparable to that of a tiger or a lion, but more intimidating.
Throwing out the book in his hand, Qi Yan jumped forward, wrapped his arms around the furry object, and arched his face under its lower jaw.
"Isn't this the ancient beast Ao Lun! I saw it alive!!"
The ancient beast Aolun is a creature that can only be seen in books. He is as domineering as a tiger and looks like a leopard, but is even more ferocious than a leopard. He feeds on human blood and flesh, and is loyal to his master after he recognizes his master.
Unable to conceal his excitement, Qi Yan felt that today's surprises were coming one after another!
"What's your name? How old are you? How long have you lived here? Hey, I forgot you can't speak... Then let me give you a name! What do you want to be called? Sweet potato? Potato? Big lump?" !" Qi Yan was so impressed by his wit, "The name Dazizi sounds so nice! It's so domineering when you say it! It's super domineering!"
After saying that, he arched into the thick hair again.
Ao Lun, Dazizi: “…”
Ao Lun innocently stretched out his long tongue and licked his paws. Ao Lun seemed to think that the food thrown in by his master this time was bad. After eating, it would cause diarrhea and affect his IQ. So it broke away from Qi Yan's bear hug, ran to a corner and started cleaning its hair.
As soon as he lay down and before he started licking his fur, a figure quickly ran over and sat next to him, looking at him with starry eyes.
Ao Lun let out a slight snort from his nostrils, stood up and changed positions, with his head facing the wall and his butt facing Qi Yan.
"You're willing to give me your ass!"
Qi Yan became even more excited. He touched Ao Lun's butt and received a threatening growl from him.
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to touch it, don't touch it." Qi Yan sat next to Ao Lun, looking at it with soft eyes.
For a moment, the air solidified. In the dark building, there were only a few beams of warm light scattered from the wooden windows, barely illuminating the surrounding scenery. There was dust all around, and a wave of his hand could send millions of dust flying into the air.
The octagonal building fell into silence, just like before Qi Yan arrived.
At some point, Qi Yan began to gently stroke Ao Lun's hair, but was not rejected by the other party.
Sure enough, things like hair smoothing are useful for feline-like creatures!
Following along, Qi Yan suddenly sighed and talked about his own experience.
"I remember that at that time, I ran away to play and was caught by the fighters sent by my father. I ran away again halfway and broke into the backyard of Zhang's house. When I saw that the sly-looking boy dared to bully Nishang, I rushed up and beat him up. pause."
"I thought the Zhan family was not strict in raising the young boy, and even the lady dared to bully him, so I took advantage of my father to take me to visit the Zhan family and complained to the young boy."
"Later, when I grew up, I realized that Nishang's life in Zhan's family was not good, and it wasn't just that one time."
"For her, it's not just that one, but every one of them."
"That day, I told Nishang that she was my biological sister. If you want to leave, you can tell me and I will take her away."
"Nishang cried. I know that she likes me. It's a love between a man and a woman."
"But I... don't know why, but I don't like her."
"Perhaps everyone thinks that her childhood sweetheart and I are a match made in heaven. But only I know that without joy, it will never be a match made in heaven."
"Later, I heard that Nishang was spotted by the leader of the Demon Cult and was brought to the Demon Cult."
"I was afraid that she would be stubborn, so I wanted to come see her and explain things to her. Let's see how the leader behaves. If he really treats Nishang, I will leave with peace of mind. If he is not a villain on the outside, I will risk my life. Also bring Nishang out of the Demon Cult."
"Nishang is a good girl..."
…
Qi Yan leaned on Ao Lun's belly and fell into a deep sleep. Ao Lun opened one of his squinted eyes, glanced at him lightly with his bright red eyes, then closed them and fell asleep.
