Enter the kitchen

Sumugu City was the first magic city they arrived at after crossing Futu Mountain.

Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo wore hoods, their whole bodies were wrapped in black robes, and their faces were covered with scarves of the same color. They looked like two moving black clouds from a distance.

The dark clouds piled up in the sky are like rolling waves, surging forward.

Lu Shiyi wiped his face, and the yellow sand accumulated on his face shook off with his movements.This was the tenth day they had entered the Far North. He looked up at the nearby Sumiya City and exhaled a breath of foul air. Finally, he could have a good night's rest.

"The wind is blowing!" Someone shouted, and the originally orderly team entering the city suddenly became chaotic. Lu Shiyi was pushed by the people behind him, and he was about to fall forward. Shu Mo helped him up.

The two looked at each other, and were squeezed into Sumiya City with the crowd.

"Close the city gate!" The dull voice echoed in his ears, and when he came back to his senses, the city gate had already slammed shut behind him.

"There are still people outside the city." Lu Shiyi glanced back and subconsciously said.The little Moxiu who followed him into the city looked up at him strangely, and said sarcastically, "You really have a kind heart." Lu Shiyi knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and pretended to be calm and patted the yellow hair on his body like others. Sha, just pretend that he doesn't know anything.The man just said casually and didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he left on his own.

"Let's go." Shu Mo took off the veil, and the two wore black robes and hoods, no different from Moxiu.

Sumugu City is one of the twelve cities in the extreme north. The lord of the city, the Lord Shuhu, was once the confidant of the Demon Lord Yuanyin, and now he is under the command of the Lord Yinghuo.Shuhu is elusive and seldom appears in front of people. Ordinary demon cultivators don't even know whether he is a man or a woman or what he looks like.

"Let's stay in Sumu City for one night and leave tomorrow." Shu Mo walked beside Lu Shiyi and said in a deep voice, Lu Shiyi nodded.Ever since he came to this valley city, he felt uncomfortable all over his body, and the demonic energy that could be seen everywhere made him unable to breathe. If it wasn't for the requiem bell, he would have been invaded by the demonic energy long ago.

There are demon cultivators dressed like them everywhere in the city. From a distance, it is dark and dense, and there is a dull sense of despair.The already dark sky seemed to be darker again, but the demon cultivators had gotten used to it.Lu Shiyi raised his head and saw the wind blowing up sand and dust madly rushing towards the opened formation in the city.

The yellow gravel collided with the black mist, and the glimmer of light aroused collided together, interweaving into a strange picture.

Just as he was about to look away, he saw that something seemed to have fallen from the impact site. He had just taken a step back when a pair of white bones landed at his feet, and instantly turned into powder and disappeared without a trace. trace.

Fortunately, he reacted calmly and did not attract any strange eyes. Shu Mo stepped forward to hold his hand, turned into a dark alley in two or three turns, and turned into an inn.

After sitting in the simple room, Lu Shiyi came back to his senses: "There is an inn here." Shu Mo handed him the wet handkerchief, and Lu Shiyi took it, although he used a clean one as soon as he entered the inn. Technique, but still feel uncomfortable all over.

"There are not only demon cultivators in the extreme north." Shu Mo said: "There are also mortals here, but the number is very small, and they exist as slaves."

"Some of these mortals came following Moxiu, and some were descendants of Moxiu. They have multiplied for thousands of years until today." Lu Shiyi nodded upon hearing this. All in all, the situation of these mortals is not very good.

Although he finally fell asleep, Lu Shiyi didn't sleep well this time. The sound of the wind whistling in his ears all night, he was woken up several times when he was half asleep, and he was still a little confused when he woke up in the morning .

"It'll be fine when we reach the Wu Clan's territory." Shu Mo could only comfort him.

Lu Shiyi nodded, and he regained some energy after he was fully dressed and ate something.

Shu Mo has a magic stone given by the Wu Clan, which is enough to pay for the two of them staying overnight.Lu Shiyi was wearing a hood and followed Shu Mo. When he was in a daze, he was bumped by Moxiu who entered the shop, and he threw himself on Shu Mo's back.

Shu Mo supported him, frowned and looked at the man, but he didn't care, and even looked back at them slightly provocatively.The other demon cultivators present didn't seem to notice it, and even the shopkeeper just fiddled with the abacus in his hand, without any intention of trying to persuade him to fight.

Lu Shiyi shook his head at him, they don't have time to argue with him now.Shu Mo lowered his eyes, hiding the thoughts in his eyes, and said calmly, "Let's go."

The Moxiu who bumped into Lu Suyi did not leave, but looked at Shu Mo's back and touched his chin, his eyes full of calculations.

"City closure?" Lu Shiyi frowned and said, "Why did you suddenly close the city?"

The demon cultivator who guarded the gate snorted softly after hearing the words: "Your Majesty ordered the city to be closed, why are there so many?" But none of the city lord Shuhu venerable he represented dared to offend, and the demon cultivators who were in a hurry to leave the city could only suppress their dissatisfaction and turn away after hearing the words.

"Just after the storm is a good time for treasure hunting, I don't know why the Venerable suddenly closed the city." He didn't say it clearly, but secretly there was still dissatisfaction among the demon cultivators.Resources are scarce in the extreme north, and storms are both a disaster and an opportunity, but now they can only be trapped in the city where the treasures of heaven and earth are everywhere, and it is natural to have complaints.

But they only dared to discuss these words in private, and they were as quiet as quails in front of the guards.

The resentment in the city was getting heavier, and Venerable Shuhu finally got news.

Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo were mixed in a group of demon cultivators. The demon cultivators who had been complaining suppressed their anger for a moment when they saw the announcement, and the rest was only ecstasy. No one thought that an ordinary storm would be buried under the wind and sand The ghost town was blown out.

"What is this ghost city?" Lu Shiyi asked in a low voice, and Shu Mo glanced at the text on the list and replied: "The demon cultivator was driven to the extreme north because of the War of the Three Realms a thousand years ago, but before that, here Some monks practiced hard here, but unfortunately they abandoned the city and left because of the bad environment.” Seeing that everyone was concentrating on looking at the announcement, he continued: “The abandoned city was submerged under the wind and sand, and Yuxi gradually became a city. It’s a ghost town, but there are countless treasures in it, it seems that we came at the wrong time this time.”

Demon cultivators don't know how to be humble. The purpose of the Lord Shuhu to seal the city is very obvious. He doesn't want other demon cultivators to take the lead, so he simply orders the city to be closed, and then let his own hands surround the ghost city.

"It's impossible for Shuhu to cover the sky with one hand, and it's impossible to swallow the ghost city all by itself. This list says it's recruiting talents, I'm afraid they are all looking for ghosts for the sake of exploring the way." Shu Mo understands this truth, and so do many demon cultivators. If you come back alive, you will be able to obtain precious resources to improve your cultivation. It is no wonder that many demon cultivators can't wait to sign up knowing that they are just pawns to explore the way.

"It's too eye-catching for us to leave at this time. Wait a few days for them to leave for the ghost town before going on the road." Naturally, Lu Shiyi had no objection. He originally just had to wait patiently for a few days, but he didn't expect to encounter an accident.

Chu Shumo is No. 1 in the Spiritual Origin Continent, but Shumo is just the incarnation of Chu Shumo's wisp of spiritual consciousness, and there are always times when he has strength but not enough.

But capsizing the boat in the gutter was never in his mind.

"Tsk, are you awake?" Lu Shiyi blinked, vaguely remembering Moxiu who suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, but the other party's words were obviously not meant for him.The man ignored Lu Shiyi, squatted down in front of Shu Mo, lifted his hood, touched his chin and said, "This face should be worth a lot of resources."

"Resources are second to none. If we can get the appreciation of the Venerable for this, we will not be in vain." Another magic cultivator stepped forward, with a disgusting smile on his face: "This Zui Ying is really a monster!" Baby." He showed a smug smile: "Even if that old man Chu Shumo comes in person, he will probably faint." Shu Mo has lived for nearly two thousand years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. For a moment, he was speechless.

Lu Shiyi was taken aback. He thought a lot in the blink of an eye, but he never thought that the other party had such thoughts.

Moxiu saw that they were motionless, Mumu looked at him, didn't know that the two of them had already lost their minds, but thought they were afraid, and said with a smirk: "It's better to be good, so you don't suffer from physical pain."

Lu Shiyi looked away from the other person's face, and silently asked Shu Mo with his eyes: "What should I do?"

Because of Requiem Bell, the devilish energy on Lu Shiyi's body was negligibly weak, while Shu Mo used some method, although his body was also contaminated with devilish energy, it was very weak.

Such two people are like fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered in Moxiu's eyes, so they are naturally allowed to deal with them.

"Do it." Almost instantly, the aura from Shu Mo's body leaked out, and he beheaded Moxiu who tore off his hood.Lu Shiyi's movements were also extremely fast, without using the slightest aura, Taotie drew an arc in his palm, and he preemptively kicked one of the demon cultivators to the ground, the cold body pressed against the opponent's skin: " Keep quiet."

The demon cultivator didn't expect that he kicked the iron plate, and then realized that something was wrong. The opponent's cultivation base was obviously far lower than his own, so how could he take him down calmly.

"You are Xiu... hiss!" Before he finished speaking, Lu Shiyi lowered the Taotie in his hand a little, and after seeing a bloodstain, he said in a low voice, "I told you to keep quiet." Current affairs are probably the only remaining advantage of this demon cultivator, and he dared not speak out after hearing the words.

"Let the magic weapon stop." Moxiu obediently obeyed, activated the formation on the magic weapon, and stopped the flying magic weapon that was advancing rapidly in the sand sea.

Shu Mo was about to push open the door when he heard a bang in his ear, and the shuttle-shaped magic weapon suddenly began to shake violently.Lu Shiyi staggered, almost unable to hold the Taotie in his hand, and he missed and drew a bloodstain on Moxiu's face.Seeing this, Shu Mo became more careful, pushed open a crack in the door and looked out, then turned to Mo Xiu after a while and said, "Where did you park the magic weapon?"

"I..." Moxiu's expression flickered, and he suddenly got into trouble when he saw the right time. Unfortunately, as soon as he stretched his hand into his arms, he saw Shu Mo who was still by the door suddenly appearing in front of him, stabbing with a cone made of ice. Into his sea of ​​consciousness, he widened his eyes, leaving behind only disbelief.

"He parked the magic weapon outside the ghost city." Shu Mo put on his hood again, squatted down next to Mo Xiu's body, erased the contract between him and the magic weapon, and simply set up a formation to let the magic weapon The flying magic weapon is completely under his control.

Lu Shi was puzzled, and followed Shu Mo to push the door out, but was so shocked by the scene before him that he couldn't speak for a while.

The black clouds pressed down heavily, and the eyes were full of yellow sand blown all over the sky by the strong wind, as well as the black flying magic weapon hidden in the sand sea.

The flying magic weapons are densely arranged between the sky and the earth, and the small land is like a drop in the ocean.

And at the end of all this, there is a city hidden behind the wind and sand, which stands alone in front of everyone, like a peerless and independent expert looking down on everything in the world.

"It seems that we can't leave." Shu Mo looked at the ghost city at the end without changing his expression.
