Chapter 855 New abilities

  Chu Dong tried to take a step out. To his surprise, he was able to leave without hindrance, but the row in front of him all died at the last step.

  Xu Su's expression was a little dignified, but he seemed calm and did not lose his sense of proportion.

The two walked from west to east all the way to the capital of Yunshang Kingdom. They walked about 30 kilometers before they saw the first city. The city wall was 12 meters high and covered an area of ​​about 300,000 square kilometers. The city was dead, with no sign of human activity in sight.

   But Chu Dong didn't see any signs of invasion by outsiders, and the battle was out of the question. The footprints on the street were even orderly, as if these people calmly disappeared at a certain moment.

Those people on the edge of the black domain seem to have come out of thin air, because Chu Dong did not see traces of a large number of people fleeing for their lives, it may be that the traces have been erased, and the appearance of the black domain is obviously no longer. overnight.

   "Let's go, go in and take a look. It's dangerous to go directly to the imperial capital. It's easy to be passive if you don't know anything."

  Xu Su also nodded without refuting.

   He followed Chu Dong's right and said in a slightly melancholy tone: "After so many years, the urban layout here has not changed.

   This place is called Jiuquan City, named for its rich wine production. I used to come here to drink often. "

  Chu Dong asked casually, "I've always been curious, what's your status in Yunshang Kingdom? How could you be able to get this kind of fat?"

   Xu Su laughed at himself, "Poor fat? No one knew what side effects the counterfeit source network would bring, such as loss of self, death? This is the most likely ending, right?

I am a slave, a superior man among slaves. My ancestors were plundered from Cangming by Yunshangguo, but I have no memory, so I don’t feel deeply. Most of these experiments with high uncertainty will make I am a newcomer aristocrat to do it.

On the one hand, I have an official position. On the other hand, in their eyes, I am a lowly slave who can be abandoned. If there is anything that I have nostalgia for in this country, it is the Marquis Quan. He is the only one who doesn't care about my background. people. "

  Chu Dong murmured: "Master Quan, seems to be a good person."

   "Indeed, without him, slaves like us would have no status."

Speaking of which, Chu Dong and the two came to the city gate, Chu Dong pressed his hand on it. The hidden city gate was more than nine meters high, and there were iron bars on it. As a result, the gate shattered with a little force, and it was rotten. very thorough.

  Chu Dong grabbed a piece of the city gate and crushed it with his hands, breaking it into pieces like a cookie.

   "It's so strange. The outside shows no major changes. Why does the inside look like this? The ground has not been affected, and the city walls are also very rotten."

   "It is not difficult to do it, the question is who would be so boring and deliberately destroy the inner structure of the city gate?

and many more! what is that, look! "

  Xu Su looked inside along the broken city gate, and found a table of white rice in the city gate hole. This thing was placed in the hole of the city gate, and Chu Dong really couldn't see it from the outside.

   And the rice was still steaming hot, like it just came out of the pot.

  Chu Dong strode into the city and went to the table to observe it carefully. There was not the slightest fluctuation of power, not even the ground. There were twenty-three bowls of white rice on the rectangular table, which was slowly steaming.

  Chu Dong turned his head and asked, "Do you have any special customs in Yunshang Country? For example, after a person dies, do you want to pay homage to white rice?"

There must have been many deaths in Yunshangguo, and the dead will have obsessions. Chu Dong has to distinguish which are the strange things caused by too many dead people and which are the strange things that have caused such drastic changes in Yunshangguo. There is a big difference between the two. .

  Xu Su frowned and shook his head.

   "Never heard of this custom, what does the twenty-three bowls represent?"

   "This kind of thing is hard to say. It's better not to touch it. Go in and take a look. If you can't find any specific and useful clues, we'll leave. There's no need to waste time because of the strange things here."

  Xu Su nodded in agreement, what they had to do was to find the problem of Yunshangguo, not to catch ghosts.

The two walked over the table full of rice and walked into the city. The streets were spacious and clean. From time to time, the breeze blew a few leaves, which seemed a bit desolate. On the left and right sides of the door was a spacious bluestone road, and the front was also a road. A five-meter-wide road.

  The main road around the city is well built. Generally, the wide and flat road around the city is usually built because of wars, and it is necessary to transport materials to the wall. Otherwise, the cost performance of the road around the city is not high.

  Xu Su walked to the side and looked at the notice. There was a portrait of a person on it. It seemed that he killed his wife and was caught on the spot.

   "Look at what he does? Could it be that you know him?"

  Xu Su pointed at the lower left corner of the notice with his finger, "I don't know it, but I know it at this time, the fourth day of September, isn't it yesterday? And the paper still smells of ink."

  【The report has been analyzed, it is indeed a recent new system】

  【The edge of the pen is floating, it is indeed human handwriting】

Generally speaking, there will be some problems with the details of the things made by the strange things. For example, the characters they make will not have the texture that someone wrote personally, and the angle of the human's strength to hold the pen will change, even because of different moods. Let the same word produce larger fluctuations.

   It’s just that this kind of handwriting fluctuations cannot be analyzed by ordinary people, and the strange thing will not be imitated.

  [The current environment has been fully cracked, and no clues have been found yet]

  【Calculated according to the intensity of the surrounding sandstorm, the footprints can be kept here for five to seven days at most】

  【The footprints in the city are extremely neat, they don’t seem to have disappeared long ago】

   "Could it be that these people are still alive, but they were just imprisoned in some ghost? We have really encountered such a thing, and why is this person familiar?"

  【Comparing, the comparison is completed, and there is no person similar to the target in the data】

  【The ghost has not been found yet】

  【Intellectual Brain has already performed brute force cracking on all frequencies of the current environment for the first time】

  【No hidden ghosts found】

   Suddenly Xu Su shouted again: "Chu Dong, look at the person on this notice, has it changed?"

  【The eyebrows are inclined by about 2 degrees】

  【It has indeed changed】

  Chu Dong walked over to the sign and read softly: "I live in Changtang Lane in the east of the city. Go to this house to see. Since the sign was posted yesterday, the murder should have happened recently."

"Walk."

  Chu Dong and Xu Su jumped up and left directly in the air, but what they didn't know was that after they left, the man on the sign shed two lines of blood and tears.

  【All maps of the city have been included】

  【Start to focus on restoring the information of Chengdong District】

  【Target found】

  Chu Dong only found it after hanging in the air for ten seconds, because only the door of this guardian's house was open, and there were traces of many people standing at the door.

   Xu Su shouted as soon as he landed, "There is that thing again? Could it be for death row prisoners?"

   This family seems to be a big family. There are twelve steps to the door. Under the door is a table of white rice, which is still steaming.

The two walked up the steps slowly. Xu Su walked in front and stretched out his hand to push the door open completely. As soon as the hand touched the door, his index finger shattered into a mass of loess. See dark silver bones.

  Xu Su looked at his fingers in disbelief, and even Chu Dong came up to observe.

   Xu Su cut off his finger? Is there anything in the world that can make Xu Su cut off his fingers without a sound? Even Chu Dong couldn't be so silent. If he could cut off his fingers, would he be able to cut off other things?

   Immediately after Xu Su's severed finger, a cyan flame ignited, and a new finger grew in a short while, which had little effect, but the problem was very strange.

  Chu Dong turned his head to look at the white rice by his side. After a little comparison, he found that it was exactly the same as the table at the city gate, but the bowl on top was slightly changed.

   "There seems to be something in this bowl?"

  Chu Dong stretched out his hand and picked up a bowl of white rice, which was not affected in any way, and then he rummaged through the rice, only to find a gray severed finger.

  Chu Dong took the severed finger and said to Xu Su: "Your finger, found it."

   "It's so wicked, isn't it good to cut off my head? Why is it just a finger? Just burn it off."

A black flame spewed out from Xu Su's hand, and the flame covered the rice. At first, there was not much change, as if the flame did not exist. Then Xu Su increased the firepower, and the black flame continued to erode, and the white flames eroded. The rice eventually began to rot and slowly turned to ashes.

  It is one aspect that it is weird and difficult to crack, and another aspect is hard power. With Xu Su's strength, he can completely destroy the city. The rules can only limit those who do not have the strength to overturn the table.

When the demon fire dissipated, a blood-red letter fell from the ashes. Chu Dong looked at each other and chose to open it. On the red paper was written a line of beautiful small characters. Chu Dong also felt familiar for a while, but there was no similar record in Chu Dong's memory after Zhinao's comparison.

   "Dangerous, hurry. What does this mean?"

  Xu Su squeezed the letter paper and showed a smile, "This is the handwriting of Lord Quanhou, he is not dead yet, it really was my miscalculation."

  Chu Dong didn't refute, but he didn't have too many expectations for the life of Lord Quan. Who said that people disappear when they die? When someone like Quanhou Ye died, he would become so weird, right?

   The two discussed it for a while, but decided to clarify the matter here, and Chu Dong was very concerned about the inexplicable familiarity. At this stage of cultivation, it usually feels right.

  The two walked into the courtyard and went straight to the bedroom, where the murder happened according to the notice.

  The room was quiet and the door to the living room was open, but there was not even a speck of dust on the table.

As soon as Chu Dong turned around, he saw two ghosts with pale faces on the two chairs in the living room. are gone.

  Xu Su asked strangely, "What happened to you?"

   "It seems that I saw two ghosts and disappeared again, and I can't find a trace."

Xu Su walked in the direction of Chu Dong's line of sight, and simply sat down on the chair, "No, but you must have seen something, something that I can't notice at all, but can be seen by you. Woolen cloth?"

  Chu Dong laughed for no reason, "You believe me."

   "I've been following you all the time, and you've really tried your best. I still believe in your ability."

   The two ghosts must exist, but Chu Dong couldn't find them for the time being, and he didn't know how to find them.

   After repeated attempts to no avail, he could only give up temporarily. When he came to the bedroom door and opened the door, he saw fresh blood on the ground.

In a trance, Chu Dong actually saw a ghost with a fiasco skin. He was in his thirties, and there was a huge wound on his neck. The bone was deep, and blood was still dripping. Chu Dong immediately stretched out his hand. In the past, I tried to catch this ghost that suddenly appeared, but I couldn't touch it myself.

But at the moment when the two staggered, a lot of foreign memories came to Chu Dong's mind. He was the lover of the hostess of this house. When he came back, he slashed to death.

After his death, his soul was separated from his body, and he watched this man go wild. It wasn't enough to kill himself, and he also killed his entire family. What was even more cruel was the ghost talisman he got from nowhere. The bodies of everyone were piled together, burned with the talisman, and their souls were scattered.

Chu Dong didn't enter the house, but turned around and rushed towards the backyard. The backyard was not big, two meters wide and ten meters long. The smell of burning corpses.

After seeing the black spot, Xu Su blurted out: "Burning the body and destroying the soul? There is still such a sinister charm in Yunshangguo. Burning the corpse with this charm can make people lose their souls and leave no trace. But how do you know that someone burns a body here?"

   "Because I saw the memory of the owner of a corpse here, I probably know what happened here."

Xu Su said resolutely: "This is impossible, this is not a broken soul in the usual sense, your master's soul is scattered and there are soul fragments, but the soul burned in this way, there is really nothing left. .

   Have you acquired some abilities that I can't understand? "

Chu Dong shook his head in silence, and then strode toward the main hall. He came to stand in front of the chair where he saw the ghost figure, and stretched out his hand to carefully sense the space in front of him. Soon Chu Dong got a new one. memory.

Their son was married for three years and did not give birth to a son and a half daughter. The two old people sought countless doctors. The final result was that their son had a problem. They continued to search for remedies, but they were still fruitless. In the end, they chose a path that outsiders could not understand, borrowing seeds.
