Chapter 1696 Spirit King and Evil Nightmare(2/2)
When he saw Guan Heng rise, he had already changed into a dress of a high-level spirit general, and Fu approached and said, "Mr. Guan, I have prepared a mount. Look, should we go to the vicinity of the Never Sleeping City immediately?"
Hearing this, Guan Heng nodded slightly: "Yes, let's go."
The two of them went out to get on their horses and galloped all the way. After about half an hour, they had already arrived near the city that never sleeps. This place was much more lively than in the south city. Before they even entered the city, Guan Heng saw a lot of people rushing towards the front.
"This never sleeping city is so lively. If it had been opened a few years ago, the grand occasion might have been better than today."
After hearing Fu's words, Guan Heng's heart moved slightly, and he asked, "I heard you say earlier that this city that never sleeps is closed and has only been reopened to the public in recent days. What's going on?"
"Hi, Mr. Guan doesn't know anything." Fu scratched his head and said: "It is said that a long time ago, this never sleepy city was the residence of the only daughter of the King Ling, the most popular only daughter of the King Ling. King Ling also spent a lot of effort to build this place, but later..."
Speaking of this, Fu's tone was also a little sad. He continued, "Later, Princess Yan Xin had an accident and died young. King Ling died early because of her daughter's death. He was unwilling to see things and think of others, so he closed the city that never sleeps. However, I heard that King Ling recently accepted an adopted daughter and actually reopened the city for her."
"Enjoyed daughter?!" After hearing the other party's words, Guan Heng subconsciously lowered his head and pondered, but he didn't think of any reason. So the two of them were speechless, and walked away for a long time, and finally arrived near the gate of the city that never sleeps.
Fu first jumped off his horse and went to the city gate guard to inquire about the commander of the Ling General's escort.
Then, he returned to Guan Heng and said, "The guards said that the selection of the commander Linghou-Mu still has important matters to deal with, and it will take half a day to arrive. They said that they had arranged a residence in the Inn Inn of Sleep, so that we could go there and wait."
Hearing this, Guan Heng nodded slightly: "Okay, let's do it." In this way, the two led their horses into the city and walked on the street to watch the sides. It was so lively. Most of them gathered together and each had their own fun. This city that never sleeps is like a huge game place.
"Hey, come and have a look. This is the game invented by the adopted princess of the Spirit King - rolling dice. It's so interesting. Everyone will play it."
There were endless shouts of shouting and shouting in the long street. Guan Hengyue felt something was wrong: "Roll dice...uh...why do I feel like I feel cold on my back?!"
At this moment, Fu, who was walking in front, said, "Mr. Guan, we are here. The inn in the city that never sleeps in front. Let's go and rest."
"Well, that's right, I'm going to go around the city."
Guan Heng suddenly said, "Fu, it's so lively, do you want to stroll around? That's it. Take these two horses to the inn and arrange our residence by the way. Then you can also visit around. After two hours, we can just meet at the residence."
"That's Cheng, that's Cheng, I'll go to the inn first." Fu Yi heard that he could move freely, so he was very happy and walked forward in two steps.
Guan Heng sighed at this time: "Oh, in order to prove whether my premonition is correct, I'd better take a walk around the city as soon as possible."
...
At the same time, a restaurant in the city never sleeps was very lively, and diners were shouting around several tables, cheering and cheering, and it turned out that everyone was rolling dice for a play.
"Ba." A white and tender little hand held the dice cup, and the girl shouted: "Buy it, please make sure to make a bet quickly."
"Crazy--"
As soon as she finished speaking, a pile of yellow and white objects fell into the rain and were thrown on the table. There were currency circulation in the Lingwang Palace, and there were two types of things: gold spirit coins and silver spirit coins. These things were minted with real gold and silver. Of course, gold was more expensive. Only ten silver spirit coins could be exchanged for one gold spirit coins.
The little girl skillfully picked up the dice cup and shook the object "rattle". Everyone's eyes fell down with the dice cup, all of them were a little nervous. She also said with a smile: "This sound is good, I bet it must be big!"
"Bang!" The moment the dice cup fell to the ground, the little girl immediately lifted the cover of the cup, and the guests rushed to look inside. Someone immediately shouted in surprise: "Two two one, little, it's little, hahaha-I've beaten!"
"Uh, what happened? I lost again." The little girl had a little embarrassed and helpless face. She muttered: "I used to always win, but I lost every time recently. Isn't this too weird?"
"Hey, little girl, if you lose all your money, get out of here and don't hinder us from getting rich."
Hearing the bald diner's impatient yelling, the little girl curled her lips and said, "What's so great? I just lost for the time being. Go back and get more spiritual coins and continue to fight with you."
As she said that, she suddenly fell off the table with her shrunken purse. Because she was small and short, she had been standing on the table and shaking the dice cup just now.
"Really, I was still the one who rose to this dice game, but I didn't expect that I had won a few times."
The little girl pouted and walked out of the restaurant gate, but at this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came from the distance, and her face changed slightly: "Uh, the footsteps sound a little familiar. I bet that it must be for me, hide quickly."
Looking left and right, there was a narrow alley next to it. The girl ran wildly and crawled into it.
The owner of the footsteps ran to the nearby area at this time, and a strong man yelled angrily: "I received the message that she was wandering around, looking for places where guests roll dice and play fun. Damn it, I must catch her back this time and look good."
As he said that, the strong man yelled: "Scattered and look for it."
A dozen people behind him rushed to the left and right, and some were still whispering: "We are so angry today?"
"Hey, you don't know, 'that' goes out to roll dice every day, and loses so much that it's actually the private money that the commander secretly takes..."
At this moment, the little girl had climbed onto a roof on the side of the alley. She accidentally heard the conversation between the two people, and felt a little unhappy: "Stingy, I'm not happy to lend you a few small amounts of money. When Dad Lingwang comes back, I'll let him beat you!"
Just as she was thinking about this, her feet suddenly slipped, and a piece of gravel immediately hit the ground, with a loud sound, which happened to alarm a few people searching nearby.
"There is movement here, everyone, come here quickly." The shout suddenly rang out, and the little girl became nervous. She slid down the ridge of the room, landed on a pile of soft straw, and then ran: "Hey, I don't want to be caught by you."
"Bang!" As soon as the sentence was said, the girl just ran into the arms of the person coming towards her. She shook her head and shouted, "Hey, you don't have eyes when you walk, right? I..."
"Xiao Hei! Why are you talking to me?" It was Guan Heng who hugged her, and of course the girl was Xiao Hei.
"Sister, brother-in-law? You miss me so much!" Seeing Guan Heng, Xiao Hei suddenly burst into tears, hugged him and stopped letting go: "Wuwu... I can't see you these days, but I'm scared. You big villain, why haven't you come to me forever?"
"What are you saying, stupid girl? Am I here?" Guan Heng hugged Xiao Hei and looked at him for a few times, and found that the child was dressed in gorgeous clothes. Although his little face was a little dirty, he had gained a little weight. Obviously, he had enjoyed much happiness these days.
Just as I was about to continue asking Xiao Hei about his recent situation in the past few days, a rushing footsteps came not far ahead of them. Immediately afterwards, a strong man roared: "Donal thief, put her down quickly, otherwise I will let you be crushed to pieces!!"
"Uh?!" Guan Heng was a little surprised when he heard this, but more than a dozen people on the other side had already surrounded him with great momentum. He hugged Xiao Hei and asked, "Heroes, have you made something wrong?"
"Stop talking nonsense, hold a noble person hostage, and be punished for death!"
It was a time to say that, and a thin guy suddenly shook the spear in his palm and slammed Guan Heng's calves hard. He hurriedly hid back. The other party's move was gone, and Guan Heng sank his face: "Why are you guys doing it without asking... "
Xiao Hei's eyes rolled and immediately leaned into his ear and said, "Brother-in-law, let's go quickly. I can't explain clearly for a while. More people will definitely surround us later, and I won't be able to leave at that time."
"Little girl, this must be your fault again." Guan Heng was covered in black at this time, but there was no way. He hugged Xiao Hei and turned around and ran away.
The strong man and the dozen people around him were so angry that his eyes were so angry that Guan Heng's body movements were extremely fast. When everyone started chasing him, he had already taken Xiao Hei to run away.
In this way, Guan Heng turned left and right in the city and ran a lot of places, finally completely getting rid of those people.
"Hu...hu...he...death girl, have you become much fatter?" Guan Heng put Xiao Hei on the ground at this time: "I just hugged you and ran for a few steps, so I was so tired."
"Where is it? I have always been very light. Brother-in-law, can you be so weak, right?"
"Uh?!" After hearing Xiao Hei's words, Guan Heng almost hit the wall next to him. He held his forehead and sighed: "I'm fine if you are your Tong Yan Wuji, girl, can you tell me about your experience in the past few days?"
"Okay, let me tell you, I have met a great man these days, and he even accepted me as my adopted daughter..." Xiao Hei pulled Guan Heng to visit the City of Never Sleep while talking about his experience. It turned out that the one who accepted her as her adopted daughter and opened the entire City of Never Sleep for Xiao Hei to have fun was Lord Ling King.
King Ling has been disturbed by loneliness over the years because of the pain of losing his daughter. It is rare for Xiao Hei to please him. Therefore, King Ling also cherishes the relationship with Xiao Hei, but he has disappeared recently. Xiao Hei has never known where his adoptive father has gone.
"By the way, brother-in-law, I want to take you to meet an old friend now, so hurry up and leave with me."
As he said that, Xiao Hei pulled Guan Heng's arm and walked forward. She also said, "The uncles of guards sent by Dad Ling to protect me are very good, but they are a little stingy. Moreover, when I go out, I always follow them, and I feel a little uncomfortable, so I sneaked out."
"Oh." Guan Heng couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that those people were guards who protected you just now, but they misunderstood that I was hijacking you. Oh, I can't wash it even if I jumped into the river."
"What does that matter? You are not afraid of them." Xiao Hei stretched out his hand to the remote courtyard in front of him: "Here, this is what I secretly found in the small nest of the city that never sleeps."
With a creak, the door opened, and Xiao Hei shouted when he entered the door: "Tangtou, come out quickly, see who is coming."
"Meow——" A sturdy figure suddenly rushed out of the room and then fell into the yard.
"You are?!" Guan Heng couldn't help laughing when he saw the small cat in front of him: "Swallowing ghost tiger?! Oh my God, you have turned into a cat! What's going on? Hahaha--"
"Meow, Meow..." Seeing Guan Hengyu ridicule and teasing, Tenggui Miao rushed up in anger and kept scratching his trousers with his little claws to show his anger.
"Come on, let me take a closer look at you." Guan Heng said as he picked up the ghost-swallowing meow and looked up and down. When his eyes passed between his hind legs, his laughter became even louder: "Hahaha, Optimus Prime has turned into a small toothpick, you're done."
"Meow!" Hearing him speak more and more distorted, the more he clawed him, Guan Heng snatched his head: "Hey, do you want to blind my eyes? By the way, your body has become so small, what should I do if the spirit of the weapon is?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the Inverse Star Disc Artifact Spirit suddenly rang: "Wow, you kid can actually think of me, it's really not easy."
"Swish!" As soon as this sentence was spoken, the invisible body of the weapon spirit suddenly floated out of the ghost swallowing cat's forehead. Guan Heng smiled slightly: "Hey, it's been a long time since we met, how are you doing?"
"Oh, since I left you and Qinghuang and mingled with this little girl, there was not much trouble. Moreover, the world is full of spiritual energy, which is very suitable for me to restore my strength. However, the sudden shrinkage of this big cat really scared me. Fortunately, I had the means to change the size at will and deal with it in time."
The spirit of the artifact said this in one breath, Guan Heng said slightly: "Well, it seems that you are lucky."
"By the way, that Spirit King is really good. In fact, even Xiao Hei doesn't know that when the ghost swallowed meow just shrank, the breath in his body was very unstable. It was originally the invisible soul body of the ghost swallowed beast. After occupying the body of the Hundred Pupils Demon Tiger, it always had some flaws, and the soul and body could not be fully compatible."
After a moment of pause, he continued to say, "Thanks to the Spirit King who nourished the Ghost Swallowing Meow's small body with a breath, it was so shocking and safe."
"That's right, I'll just say it. Dad Ling Wang is a big good person." Xiao Hei spoke from the side, "I just feel a little bored and don't like to talk."
"Hehe, maybe you are too annoying." Guan Heng said, and pinched Xiao Hei's face with a little joke: "You actually teach the game of dice rolling in the whole city that never sleeps. Do you know if you take these people on a wrong path?"
"Woo..." Xiao Hei's face hurt, and he immediately shook his head and avoided the other party's "claws". She said angrily: "If you want to take the wrong path, you are still the leader. I can roll dice, but you are not taught by your brother-in-law?"
"Uh, that's it..." Guan Heng was speechless when he heard her words, and his forehead was sweating.
Fortunately, the spirit of the artifact said: "Hey, you guys talk first. I want to go back to this kitten and sleep. No matter whether it is a problem or not, don't bother me. Hehehe, I want to have a big sleep and absorb the spiritual power of this world as much as possible."
After saying that, the invisible body of the instrument spirit disappeared, and Guan Heng also changed the topic and said, "Hey, I'm idle anyway, tell me, what else is fun in this city that never sleeps, let's go and have a look."
"Okay." Xiao Hei hugged the Swallowing Ghost Miao from his hand and then said, "I know a mysterious and interesting place, but the guards all said that the place is dangerous. It seems that some cave that has installed the "Five Elements Teleportation Round Array". Let's go and see?"
"Is there any danger?" Guan Heng hesitated when he heard the other party's words: "Then let it go."
"Oh my brother-in-law, it's rare for us to go out together." Xiao Hei was a little unhappy when he heard that Guan Heng refused. She shook Guan Heng's arm and said, "Are you a big hero afraid, right? Even the courage to venture in an unknown place is gone?"
"Who said I'm afraid?" Guan Heng, who was a little hesitant, immediately said: "Where is that place, let's go immediately."
...
After a while, under the city wall at the northwest corner of the city never sleeps, Xiao Hei pointed to the huge stone cave not far ahead: "Here, it's there. When I passed by, I found someone guarding here for the first time, so I wanted to sneak in and take a look, but the other party guarded it very strictly and patrolled repeatedly. I couldn't get in for a while, so I had to give up."
"Oh, what afterwards?" Guan Heng said: "Didn't you go and ask the guards? What is the mystery in this cave? Do you know clearly?"
"Oh, I'm angry when I say this."
Xiao Hei stomped his feet angrily at this time, and she said, "I went back and asked the uncle in the guards. He said that there was a 'Five Elements Teleportation Round Array' in it. It was too dangerous. Then no matter how much I asked, he wouldn't say it."
"So that's how it is." Guan Heng touched his chin and said, "Since I mentioned the name of the 'Five Elements', it is necessary for me to investigate."
