Urban Night Returner

Shen Gu finally understands why weak water can't carry a feather.

Countless hands stretched out from the bottom of the water and pulled him, dragging him to the bottom of the water.Cold weak water was poured in from the ears and nose, and he, who was excellent in water quality, actually had a sense of fear of being drowned.Suqin and Monk Leshan are worse than him, because they are souls, and they are in danger of being scattered under the weak water.

Jin Tiezhiying's head popped out from Shen Gu's hand, after all, it was the sharpest thing, as soon as it showed its head, those souls flinched back in shock.Shen Gu took the opportunity to pop his head up and took a deep breath, calmed down, and the water-suppressing spell that Zhong Lecen had taught him also came to his mind.Before those souls could surround them again, the copper essence rushed out of the gold and iron hero, and the copper pillars fell into the water one after another, and the water surface that fell into the copper pillars immediately calmed down.

Shen Gu floated up from the calm weak water.A copper pillar grew automatically under his feet, lifting him out of the water.The gold and iron hero in his hand is divided into two, one is hooked to the Suqin, and the other is hooked to the Leshan monk, and they rose from the weak water together.It turns out that the weak water is not deep, in fact it is only five or six meters, but because there are countless souls in it, no matter what living things fall into it, they will be dragged down by the souls and drowned.

Jumping ashore, Suqin and Monk Leshan collapsed to the ground, and it took a long time to stand up.Shen Gu ignored them, looked around, and saw the weak water rising continuously, except for the small water area where he made the town water column, there were turbid waves churning everywhere, and countless souls bared their teeth and claws in the water, making mournful screams.The weak water, which was originally clear to the bottom, has now turned blood red.Suqin looked at it with wide eyes, and murmured, "Why, why does it look like the water under the Naihe Bridge?"

"All waters have the same origin." Monk Leshan was terrified and chanted Buddha repeatedly, "The weak water rises so high, and the underworld is still flooded. What, what's going on? It's a bit like the old monk made it back then." The evil..."

With his words, a string in Shen Gu's mind snapped: "Le Cen!"

"What?" Monk Leshan was also dumbfounded, "It's Mobai..."

Shen Gu grabbed the old monk: "Can you tell where the water comes from?"

Monk Leshan shook his head blankly: "All water comes from the same source, just like the nine wells of Shennong in the past, when one well was pumped, the rest of the wells moved, and it was hard to see where the water rose."

Shen Gu didn't care to listen to the words of Shennong Jiujing in front of him, he wished he could fly to Zhong Lecen's side immediately, but the underworld is so big, where would he find it?He even felt that he could feel Zhong Lecen's panic. Seeing his ability unsealed, but causing such a catastrophe, he must be very scared...

Shen Gu subconsciously stretched out his hand and grabbed it, leaving nothing in his palm, but he felt that he touched Zhong Lecen's cold cheek just now.There was still that soft feeling in the palm, and Shen Gu felt his heart twist.He must go to Zhong Lecen's side immediately, immediately!A strong feeling rushed out of his heart, he lowered his hand, and the ten-handed sword slid out of his sleeve. With almost no effort, the blade had already cut through the air, tearing a crack, and Shen Gu rushed forward without hesitation. go in...

The underworld is flowing!

Zhong Lecen climbed up almost subconsciously, and the rapidly rising Huangquan water chased after him. Countless waving arms stretched out from the water, grabbing everything he could and dragging him into the water.Many souls who had no time to escape were dragged into the underworld, quickly assimilated, and more arms stretched out.

Zuo Mu dragged behind him, still looking back unwillingly.He had done all the calculations, and even thought of the trick of using Zhu Yaolei to force out Zhong Lecen's sealed spiritual power, but there was only one thing that he didn't think of - he lost the key to the handcuffs.Zhu Yaolei directly opened his space crack to the underworld, but when he fell through the space crack, the handcuff key fell out of his pocket. I don't know if it fell in the crack or in the flowers on the other side. He didn't carry any sharp tools that could pry open or break the handcuffs, and he couldn't even find a stone in the underworld.Originally, he didn't take this matter to heart, and he could think of a way after entering Sanshengquan.But he never expected that the moment Zhong Lecen came into contact with the Sansheng Spring, the spiritual power in Zhong Lecen's body exploded completely, causing the water of the Sansheng Spring to spurt out, and the entire hell spring flowed across the land!Who would have imagined that all waters have the same source, and Sanshengquan is also a part of Huangquan water, which is no different in essence from the bloody water under the bridge of Naihe or even the sea of ​​blood in hell!

They are now on the steep hill outside the city of Wushi.The entire City of Death has been submerged, and those souls who have not yet reincarnated before the age limit are dragged into the water, only a few escaped, and now, like them, are desperately climbing to a higher place.

Zhong Lecen crawled slower and slower.Something in the body is about to come out, and I want to go back and merge with the yellow spring water behind me.His movements gradually stopped, and he involuntarily turned his head to look behind him.On the surface of the churning water, countless heads and arms rose up, as if calling to him.

"Why are you in a daze, climb up quickly!" Zuo Mu was originally behind him, but now he was ahead of him, and he tugged on the handcuffs.But Zhong Lecen didn't respond at all, instead he leaned out his whole body, as if he was about to jump down at any moment.

Zuo Mu became anxious, and pulled hard: "Be sober!" But he only saw Zhong Lecen's body protruding further and further, even wanting to let go of his hands.If he let go, both of them would fall down on this bare stone wall.

Zhong Lecen couldn't hear Zuo Mu's words at all, and the handcuffs jammed his wrists so badly that he didn't feel it.In his eyes, this surging yellow spring water is like the most comfortable bed, as long as he jumps on it, he can fall into the most gentle embrace...

Suddenly something brushed against his face, Zhong Lecen shivered suddenly, and suddenly found that he had loosened one hand at some point, as long as the other hand loosened again, or his feet slipped, his whole body would be shaken. Get off.He hastened to hold on to the stone wall tightly, and a layer of cold sweat was already breaking out on his back.

"Climb quickly, you want to die!" Seeing that he seemed to understand, Zuo Mu quickly tugged on the handcuffs.

Zhong Lecen followed him to climb up, but he was thinking in his heart, just now he clearly felt that someone touched his face, that hand was warm and strong, with a layer of calluses on the palm, he was very familiar with it - it was a solid hand !

Shen Gu!he came!Zhong Lecen can be sure, although he doesn't know where Shen Gu is now, and he doesn't know how he can suddenly learn that he can touch him, but he can be sure that Shen Gu must be here!Just thinking of this, he suddenly felt strength in his body, and even the feeling of ready to move in his body was suppressed a bit.

The rising speed of Huangquan water has slowed down.After all, even yellow spring water cannot completely violate the laws of physics, and it is impossible for water to flow to high places forever.Zuo Mu and Zhong Lecen were hanging on the cliff, looking back, their eyes were full of waving arms and dark eye sockets.

"Zuo Mu?" Just beside him, a voice sounded tentatively.

Zuo Mu instinctively responded and turned his head away.On their left, a soul is also hanging on the cliff, two identical faces are almost stuck together.Zhong Lecen blurted out: "Xiao Qingfan!"

In fact, Zhong Lecen has never met Xiao Qingfan at all, every time he sees Zuo Mu who is holding Xiao Qingfan's body, so now, seeing two identical faces, the shock makes him almost relieved hand.And Zuo Mu was even more shocked: "Qingfan, you--"

Xiao Qingfan smiled: "I'm surprised to see me? This is the City of Death, and my Yangshou hasn't arrived yet. Isn't it normal to stay here?" It's not very obvious, but Zuo Mu can see it clearly.

For the first time, he stammered: "Qingfan, you--" Since Suqin's death, he has been nurturing Yin for hundreds of years. In such a long life, he has killed and harmed people, but he feels that every time he is doing something. In the exchange of benefits, I have never regretted it, only for Xiao Qingfan, the person who let his soul die for nothing, would feel such a feeling of guilt.

Xiao Qingfan was still smiling: "What? You don't want to see me? You are -- why are you still facing my face? Or is it that you have been in my body for a long time, and your face is the same as mine?"

Zuo Mu didn't know what to say: "No, I'm--"

"This body of mine has at least 40 years of life, why are you here now?" Xiao Qingfan's eyes finally turned to Zhong Lecen, and to the handcuffs on him and Zuo Mu, "There is still a person... The handcuffs are connected together? How much do you miss him?"

He smiled lightly, but Zhong Lecen felt his back trembling.He recognized this smile. In his previous life, Luo Jing's bodyguard, Biquan, had shown him such a smile. It looked gentle and harmless, but it actually represented anger and jealousy.

Zuo Mu's life has been very long. In terms of Taoism and knowledge, I am afraid that no one can surpass him. It is a pity that the only thing he didn't bother to learn in his life is love.All his love has been used up on Suqin, so when he calmly used Xiao Qingfan, he never seriously tried to figure out his feelings.

When Shen Gu jumped out of the crack, fortunately he landed on the opposite cliff instead of falling directly into the Yellow Spring.But when he raised his eyes, he saw that Zhong Lecen was already in danger—Xiao Qingfan hugged Zuo Mu, and the two of them were already hanging in mid-air, only relying on the pair of handcuffs to hang on Zhong Lecen's hands, and Zhong Lecen had to support him alone The weight of two people is already precarious.

Xiao Qingfan hugged Zuo Mu tightly.If this was in the Yang world, he would pass through Zuo Mu's body -- or rather his own body, without being able to touch anything.But this is in the underworld, and the distinction between soul and body is not clear here.Therefore, when Xiao Qingfan rushed over, Zuo Mu was so rushed that he couldn't hold back the mountain wall and rolled down.

"Come with me!" Xiao Qingfan's hug was as cold as ice, "We will be reincarnated together forever!"

Zuo Mu only hesitated for a few seconds, then made a handprint with his free left hand, and pressed it directly on Xiao Qingfan's forehead: "Let go, I can't die!"

The handprint landed on the Yintang, and a puff of white smoke rose immediately, Xiao Qingfan's soul convulsed because of the pain, but he still refused to let go: "Follow me! I beg you, come with me!"

"Zuo Mu!" Suqin and Monk Leshan followed Shen Gu and passed through the space crack. Like Shen Gu, Suqin saw the person she wanted to see as soon as she raised her eyes, and she couldn't help but let out an exclamation .

"Suqin?" Zuo Mu never expected that the person he was looking for would appear in front of his eyes. For a moment, the hand on Xiao Qingfan's forehead loosened, and Xiao Qingfan took the opportunity to break free from his hand. Suddenly he bit his throat.The severe pain caused Zuo Mu to struggle suddenly, and the stone that Zhong Lecen was holding was suddenly forced and loosened from the stone wall.

Shen Gu flicked his hand, Jin Tiezhiying shot out, and accurately cut the chain in the middle of the handcuffs in mid-air, Zuo Mu and Xiao Qingfan broke away from Zhong Lecen, rolled down the mountain wall, and fell into the water with a plop .Suqin let out a scream and jumped down without hesitation.

Zhong Lecen reluctantly attached his body to the stone wall dangerously, looked up joyfully, but saw Monk Leshan next to Shen Gu: "Master, Master?"

"Mobai..." Although his face had changed, he would never admit to the yin energy he had created on his body. Monk Leshan was so emotional that he could only cry out for a long time.

Shen Gu grabbed Jin Tiezhiying who flew back, and rushed to the edge of the cliff in one step: "Le Cen, calm down, I will find a way to pick you up!"

"I didn't—" Zhong Lecen hadn't finished speaking when the water below the cliff suddenly churned violently. Suddenly, Xiao Qingfan's soul was ejected from the water like a cannonball, and his whole body was covered with a golden shimmer.The shimmer burned his body like a flame, and before he fell back into the water, it was reduced to ashes.But the waves created by him jumping out of the water splashed on Zhong Lecen.Those waves were like countless hands, and when they splashed onto Zhong Lecen's body, they grabbed onto Zhong Lecen tightly.

Zhong Lecen only felt that the splashed water was icy cold to the bone. This kind of coldness seemed to be able to penetrate the skin and penetrate into the blood vessels, making the power in his body eager to try again, almost breaking through his skin and spraying out.Although he didn't know exactly how he obtained this fate, he now understood that the spiritual power in his body came from the underworld, and now, the imprisoned power wanted to return.

Every pore hurts like a pinprick.But the needle sticks from the outside to the inside, while Zhong Lecen's pain is from the inside to the outside.He couldn't hang on to the steep rock wall anymore, and as soon as he let go, he fell into the water.

"Le Cen!" Before Shen Gu figured out how to get him up, he saw him let go of his hand and fell into the water.At the last moment of falling, he saw Zhong Lecen's raised face with pain.So without thinking, he jumped down too.When he fell into the water, he saw a flash of the white skirt, and Monk Leshan followed him and jumped off.

Yellow spring water is bone-chillingly cold.Shen Gu revealed the gold and iron, forced away the bound arms, forced his eyes wide open to look for Zhong Lecen's figure.But there were heads and arms everywhere, and he couldn't see where Zhong Lecen was.

The white skirt flickered again, and Shen Gu saw Zhong Lecen's face.Monk Leshan supported him and rose from the bottom of the water.Countless arms dragged him, and his two calves had already melted in the yellow spring water, but he still tried his best to support Zhong Lecen to float up.

Shen Gu rolled over and dived down, holding Zhong Lecen's hand.Zhong Lecen's whole body was convulsed, Shen Gu hugged him and floated up with all his strength, but felt that his body was as cold and heavy as iron, and he couldn't move him!Monk Leshan had already sunk, his body gradually melted in the yellow spring water from bottom to top, until finally only a head remained, Shen Gu could still see his eyes, staring at Zhong Lecen.

Suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed Shen Gu's ankle.Shen Gu kicked instinctively but failed to kick it away. He looked down and saw that it was Zuo Mu.Xiao Qingfan had already bitten a hole in his neck, blood was flowing out, the other hand held Suqin's soul tightly in his arms, the handprints were shimmering, protecting Suqin's soul.Originally, Zhong Lecen's body was already very heavy, but with the addition of him, it seemed to weigh a ton.Shen Gu didn't hold his breath, and took a sip of yellow spring water.A cold feeling quickly spread from his throat to his whole body, Shen Gu felt as if a hand had reached into his throat to grab it, as if he could grab his internal organs out of his throat in the next moment.He got rid of this fear and kicked his legs vigorously to float up, but he felt as if he had taken root and didn't move at all.

Zhong Lecen woke up feeling as if his blood was boiling, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Gu's face that was already hypoxic, and he himself choked a sip of water into his lungs.Retaining the last bit of sobriety, he wanted to push Shen Gu away.There is a feeling that he will die here today, and his power will be dissolved in the underworld, and he will never have such a terrible fate from now on.

Shen Gu hugged Zhong Lecen tightly.At this moment, instead, he suddenly understood what is called "He Xintong". He didn't need to speak, or even see the expression on Zhong Lecen's face, he knew what he wanted to do.

Zhong Lecen's hand blindly grabbed Shen Gu's chest, and his fingers caught something, it was Shen Gu's necklace.The cap of the small clay bottle was pulled away, and Shen Gu caught a glimpse of a dark brown thing gushing out of the bottle, like a black stream of water, joining the yellow spring water.But when he took another look, he realized that it wasn't water, but soil.

"Xi Rang?" If it wasn't in the water, Shen Gu would have called out.Is this the soil that grows when it meets water?

That's right!What gushes out of the small bottle is soil, like a dragon, and the soil grows rapidly.It absorbs every drop of yellow spring water it touches, as well as the souls in the yellow spring water, just like people use charcoal to absorb impurities in the water. Wherever the soil goes, the yellow spring water and the souls in it are turned into soil.

Shen Gu tore off the soft clay bottle on Zhong Lecen's chest.Another earth dragon swam out of the bottle, and their feet quickly turned into solid ground, pushing them upwards.Shen Gu finally breathed a sigh of relief, thank God, this box of breath soil was given by the sea monster...

The hand gripping the ankle suddenly loosened.Shen Gu looked down, and saw Zuo Mu holding Suqin's soul tightly with both hands, but the rapidly growing Xiyang broke through the sealing barrier under him irresistibly, and Suqin came into contact with Xirang's soul first. Both feet quickly turned into soil, then her calves, thighs, waist... Even though she was in Zuo Mu's arms, she was still turning into a statue.But there was a smile on her face, and her lips moved slightly. Shen Gu couldn't hear the sound, but from her lips, he read a sentence: "Let go."
