I'm playing cards in Douluo

Dark, deep.

The road was dark and long, damp and musty.

It seems like it hasn't been used in a long time.

You Cheng stepped on the water in the pit and glanced above his head with a frown.

It's leaking like crazy.

After waiting for a while, Youcheng realized that there was no danger, so he followed the mechanical bat and went there in person.

But once he walked inside, the smell almost scared him out.

But he couldn't help it. After all, he couldn't see the end of the road. If he could know where this passage could lead, he would have taken a detour instead of following it into the secret passage like a fool.

However, Youcheng also kept an eye on it. The distance between the mechanical bat and him was more than three and ten minutes of flight time. With such a long distance, if there was any attack, Youcheng would have enough time to evacuate to ensure safety.

In short, if there is a pioneer exploring the path, your safety will be much higher.

At least there won't be any chance of being caught in a trap for no reason.

"Wait...I still have to be more cautious. The mechanical bat flies in the sky. If there are any induction traps on the ground, wouldn't I just slap myself in the face?"

Suddenly, You Cheng thought of this problem and his expression became serious.

"Martial spirit summons, come out, humans, dogs and beasts!"

As soon as the martial soul card was clicked, a milky white light suddenly flashed in front of You Cheng's eyes.

The next moment, the light condensed and took shape, forming a being with brown body hair, about the height of a person, and the limbs of a dog.

The upper body is like a human body with a dog's head. He is wearing bright silver armor with leather connections between the armors. He is holding a short knife and a small buckler. At first glance, he looks like a difficult-to-fight type.

It is the strength level of the soul master and is called the human dog beast.

Of course, this is not a combination of humans and dogs, but a race of its own. They are fairly intelligent and know how to use weapons, so Youcheng still prefers such high-IQ martial spirits.

Martial spirit summoned beasts like bats and birds have limited brain capacity and can only understand part of his commands.

"Wang Wang-"

As soon as they came out, the man, dog and beast roared excitedly, moved their limbs, and rushed to Yu Cheng in joy, lowered their heads, and rubbed his chest and cheeks with their heads, as if they hadn't seen him for a long time and missed him very much. look like.

"Ah~"

You Cheng pushed the man-dog beast away with a look of disgust, touched its head, and commanded: "Gouzi, rush, help me explore the path in front, remember to protect your own safety. If necessary, you can use your mental perception Come and inform me, I will use my soul skills and illusory cards to help you avoid harm."

Yu Cheng looked serious. Card damage was not a trivial matter. Once he was seriously injured several times, the card might even be blown up.

If the summoned beast of the martial spirit card really dies, then the quality and durability of the card will also be greatly reduced. If it is not cherished...

The card is really gone.

"Wang woo~"

The man, dog, and beast nodded in understanding, and then reluctantly turned around in this narrow place. They protected their heads with a small shield and walked slowly in front in a defensive posture.

You Cheng waited quietly for 10 minutes. After confirming that the man, dog and beast were gone, he started to take action.

There's nothing he can do, he's taking it too seriously.

No, it’s Gou!

Gou Zhidao is ever-changing.

I'm ashamed to say that when I faced the evil soul master before, it was easy to get carried away when my head got hot.

But now that he has calmed down, he will face it with regular tactics instead of continuing to get excited.

After spending another half an hour, You Cheng finally saw a glimmer of light gradually emerging in front of his eyes.

But then, the anxious looks of humans, dogs and beasts appeared in his mind.

It seemed like it was attacked and in pain.

Without hesitation, the soul ring on You Cheng began to shine.

The dazzling purple light is extremely conspicuous in the dark secret passage, and at the same time there are some magnificent colors, like a dream.

In the front where Yu Cheng couldn't see, the man, dog and beast kept blocking with the shield on his arm, and kept waving the short sword in his other hand to block the flying arrows.

These arrows are all painted in a very sinister black color without reflection, and seem to contain some kind of venom. Judging from the fact that they have not been weathered and dried up, they should have been updated recently.

Because the launch was so silent, masters such as humans, dogs and beasts, who were at the soul level, were also at a loss.

But soon, he reacted. If he could block it, he would use his weapon to split it. If he couldn't block it, he would use his armor and shield to block it. In short, he would make sure that his skin could not be easily attacked.

Who knows what kind of poison was on it?

If it hadn't been a coincidence, Youcheng was as stable as an old dog, and he felt that there must be something fishy here, so he sent humans, dogs and beasts with excellent reflexes, high combat effectiveness, and considerable intelligence to explore the way in advance. This poisonous arrow trap will cause a lot of headaches for you in the city.

While the humans, dogs and beasts continued to resist, finally, Youcheng's response came.

Its entire beast's figure suddenly began to become illusory, and then it disappeared.

Disappeared completely.

The humans, dogs and beasts immediately appeared in front of You Cheng, and the martial soul card that symbolized the meaning of its existence was taken away from the duel plate.

"Thanks a lot."

Yu Cheng thanked the card in a low voice, and then took out a rare card - Electronic Dragon.

Martial spirit entity summons.

The next moment, the electronic dragon's snake-like mechanical body filled the entire secret passage. It let out a dissatisfied hiss, raised its head, and wanted to break free from the oppression and restraint caused by the surroundings.

But it caused the surrounding walls to shake, and flying ash fell down.

"Stop, stop, don't collapse."

You Cheng suddenly felt like his head was spinning, and he directed the electronic dragon to explore the way ahead.

Because of its huge size and hard silver-white armor, all traps were completely ignored.

In this way, after spending more than half an hour, Youcheng arrived at the exit of another alley.

Following this alley, there is another similar secret passage.

After more than two hours of journey, Youcheng finally reached the exit and pushed aside the wooden covering above his head.

As he stood upright and looked around, what happened to be in front of him was a remote place that smelled like wild grass and flowers.

The surrounding woods are thick and green, and it is an ordinary small forest.

"According to the map, this should be the east side of Nuojia City, right? Did I circle half of the city?"

You Cheng took out the revised version 2.0 of the simple map of Notting City, took a look at it, and scratched his head.

"I remember that this direction should lead to some raw material production areas outside the city, right? Timber, animal furs, and even some mineral veins are all concentrated here, and even a small market has been formed, but because of the rich mineral veins The mining was exhausted, a large number of workers were lost, and it was gradually abandoned, as if the production of these raw materials had been moved elsewhere.”

He has a very good memory, and while learning relevant map knowledge, he also learned a lot about surrounding things and historical processes.

Although there is no use in studying knowledge in Douluo Continent, at least according to You Cheng, he can recognize the type of something as soon as he sees it for the first time, and he can clearly detect it when he sees a soul beast. Any number of years is enough.

He's not a bad guy either.

He just wanted to raise the ashes of the evil soul master.

He is still an 11-year-old child, so what bad intentions can he have?

"Could it be that this abandoned outdoor building complex is the evil soul master's lair? That's too close, right? No, if there are some soul masters from Wuhun Palace who are protecting us, then whether it's close or not is not a problem at all."

Yu Cheng's head began to hurt when he thought of such a serious topic.

No matter what kind of organization it is, it is always afraid of internal problems.

It's impossible to kill these two devils without stopping.

There will always be some who betray the interests of the organization and seek their own welfare.

As long as there are external temptations, there is no way to prevent this from happening.

With this thought in his mind, Yu Cheng pondered for a moment and decided to enter it to find out.

However, he still had an idea in mind.

He casually took a white and cyan card without any martial spirit printed on it and flew it into the canopy of the tree, where it was firmly stuck by the branches.

If something happens, he can evacuate in time.

After making all preparations, you can continue your journey through the city.

Following the gravel road, you can see the looming outline of a building about a kilometer away when traveling around the city.

After walking for half an hour, gradually, rotten trees, collapsed canopies, abandoned building remains, and gray roof tiles came into view.

In front of him, there was a darkness, the cloth and support pillars collapsed to the ground, and it was extremely dirty.

There is no way to go.

This place was originally a trading meeting. A shed was built with very simple logs, oil, cloth, leather, etc. Under the shed were small stools and a row of long tables, with items for sale placed on the long tables.

"Perhaps with a few shouts, it is very lively. There is a well nearby, where the miners who are working hard can drink water freely. The money obtained from selling their labor can also be used to buy raw materials for making new clothes here. ....."

You Cheng began to close his eyes and recall everything that happened in this place. It was a long time ago, at least, it was 50 years ago, right?

What happened after that?

You Cheng guessed that it was as recorded in the files that the mineral veins were exhausted, the miners also left, and the departure of dozens or hundreds of consumers caused this trading meeting to collapse at an unimaginable speed. As for the raw material production areas , and because of the passage of time, the surrounding resources disappeared and left.

For the first time, Youcheng felt the weight of history in this short period of time.

"So, the evil soul master should be here, right? If he doesn't have a place to stay, he may have to live in the wild, and the quality of life will be too miserable. No, it's miserable here too."

You Cheng thought about it, rolled up his sleeves, covered his mouth and nose, and began to use his mental power to detect possible footprints.

For a long time, he frowned.

No.

Nothing at all.

Damn it, is it so clean?

"You may need to keep moving forward. I feel an inexplicable...depression here."

Suddenly, a voice sounded in You Cheng's ears.

"I also have this plan. First, I will go to the buildings deeper in the assembly to take a look. Although the wooden houses there are also rough and quickly made, they should still be habitable. Maybe there will be harvest in those places."

Youcheng didn't look back, and he quickened his pace, stepping on the decayed crossbar, looking for the road that was once in the center, and gradually deepening.

About 500 meters later, the collapsed canopy, crossbars, bricks, etc. were covered by dark wooden single-family buildings covered with spider webs and cracked walls.

You Cheng looked around and suddenly felt an inexplicable numbness in his scalp.

The door of the first building was wide open, and it was extremely empty inside, with dust accumulating. From time to time, an unknown wind would move around on the cracked walls, making strange sounds.

Looking inside, it is deep and dark, and you can vaguely see densely packed tables and chairs similar to those in a canteen, but no one has taken them back. It looks like a room with ominous omens in a horror movie.

If it were not confirmed that there are no ghosts in Douluo Continent...

Maybe he didn't even dare to go in and take a look.

But whoever lets it go, he will be the biggest ghost catcher.

Even the ghosts of 10-year-old soul beasts could not break a single finger of his.

As for ghosts, he is not worried anymore. After his teacher Ghost Douluo died, his martial soul mutated and directly replaced his human body, giving him the title of Ghost Douluo.

The evil ones won’t do.

If Douluo Continent didn't treat evil soul masters based on behavior and nature, I'm afraid Ghost Douluo would also be an evil soul master in terms of martial souls alone.

An evil spirit does not mean that he is an evil spirit master. Only behavior can determine everything.

You Cheng entered the house and soon began to search.

Just checking it, a trace of doubt emerged in his mind.

Not right.

In this place, tables and chairs are scattered here and there. There are beds and wardrobes in each room, and there are even some clothes. Even if you leave this place, you should take these things back and sell them for money. This is not what a normal businessman would do at all. Thing.

Moreover, he also saw more details.

The messy room was as messy as a tornado destroying a parking lot, as if something had wreaked havoc here.

Suddenly, Youcheng's footsteps paused.

Looking slightly, he noticed a flash of gray and white flashing under the bed.

He did not rashly lower his head to check, but quickly scanned it with his mental energy.

Like a precise three-dimensional map, the objects under the bed quickly took shape in his mind, which also made his face look a little ugly.

"Human corpse? Damn it, looking at the posture, it looks like it is hiding from something. Was it scared to death? Or starved to death? No, it should have been seriously injured."

With doubts in mind, You Cheng fished out the bones and couldn't help but take a breath when he saw that the sternum was almost flattened.

Turtle.

What the hell is it that flattened a person's entire body at once?

This force-bearing area is half the size of a human hand, right?

Or maybe a sledgehammer or something.

Is there any other hidden secrets in this place?

"Yucheng, didn't I just tell you that there is an inexplicable depression? Now that we are closer, I can clearly feel that this oppressive and strong inexplicable thing is not far away from you, in front of you."

As a spirit beast, Xiaowu's mother has excellent perception.

"Is it...."

You Cheng put down the bones in his hands, raised his head and looked around, then left immediately, running towards the direction pointed by Xiao Wu's mother.

Not long after, his figure stood outside the door of an abandoned inclined shaft.

His face was as dark as water.

In the dark mine, the ventilation was obviously not very good, but he still smelled something.

The taste of blood.

And it was very strong, almost concentrated together, exuding an extremely fishy and strong smell.

But the strange thing is that if you are a little farther away, the smell of blood is completely undetectable.

"We should have found the lair set up by the evil soul master here..."

Yu Cheng murmured and began to retreat.

He wants to evacuate, just find it and leave immediately!

But the next moment, several figures flashed past!

You Cheng's expression suddenly changed, and without hesitation, the card replacement was activated!

"Don't leave once you're here. You're going to die today...what the hell?"

At the moment when the sudden encirclement was formed, a hoarse voice also sounded, but then, as You Cheng suddenly disappeared, the voice also let out a surprised "Fuck".
