Chapter 42 Lost
The six corpses on the tree were not killed by secret masters, and the strange space that reversed time and space were created by secret masters from time to time. The full feast that appeared in this empty city at this moment was not the masterpiece of the secret masters.
This giant tree is filled with unknown power.
Lu Lie looked at the rows of palaces on the high side of the city and fell into deep thought.
After eating a squat of dirty things like tomatoes, although the five people felt extremely disgusted, they were not hungry and no longer thirsty, and their weak hands and feet also recovered their strength. Without the confusion of illusions, they might not be able to eat so much organic protein. Thinking of this, do you still have to thank the guy who left this "big gift" to him in secret?
Lu Lie was amused and crying.
At least we can know that the blessing of the illusion did not have much malice to his group. What he (or it?) did was at best just "titled" to himself and his group.
The cannibal owl smashed the leftovers on the table and used it to vent his anger.
Since you have eaten and drunk enough, it is time to continue on the road.
But how to deal with Yang Wei who was lying on the ground and unable to move has become a big problem.
Take him with you, this disaster star that will disappear with whoever you form a team. Keeping him in the team is a hidden danger.
If he kills him, the secret on him will become eternal. And... if he dies in such a place, no one knows whether his body will change.
His bones were still very hard. No matter how he asked or tortured him, he bit his fingers: "I don't know."
Lu Lie bargained with the cannibal owl for a long time, and finally the two sides reached a compromise: tie Yang Wei with another layer of rope and put him here first. The four of them continued to go deep into the city and search for the exit. After finding the exit, they would come back to pick up Yang Wei out.
Lu Lie used the rope of Yang Weiden Tree to trap him firmly. Every time the cannibal owl walked a distance, he would use special means to leave marks on the ground. No matter how far these four people walked, they could follow the marks back to their original place.
Lu Lie tied a dead knot for Yang Wei and finally asked him: "Now you have regretted it, you can tell the truth. Even if you killed those tree climbers in the past, we are not the six doors on the ground, we will not pursue things like you. Just tell me why you killed them, and you know a lot about this giant tree."
Yang Wei, who had closed his eyes, narrowed a slit, glanced at Lu Lie, and stopped talking.
"Don't tell me, you don't know."
"Then what do you want me to say?" Yang Wei replied weakly, "It's me, I can't understand why my past appeared in such time and space? Could it be that there are really two completely identical people in this world?"
"I understand your current mood very well." Lu Lie firmly tied the knot on his body, "Then you lie here and think about it carefully. I hope you can make up a better excuse after we come back."
The four of them ignored him and headed deeper into the city.
Yang Wei was getting smaller and smaller. At the corner of the next street, Lu Lie looked back at him for a last glance, and saw the tall giant leaning against the pillars on the side of the road, staring at the top of the mountain cave above the city in a daze, as if he was really thinking about a better excuse for himself.
The whole city was as silent as death, like a stinking corpse in a pool of stagnant water. And this feeling became stronger as Lu Lie went deeper, it became stronger. It seemed that every distant building and pavilion here was looking at these four people in a silence. The black hole in the distance was like the mouth of a dead giant beast, still opening there to choose people and eat them.
In this strange and terrifying atmosphere, the four of them had a tacit understanding, and no one said a word along the way. The quieter it was even more quiet. For a moment, walking in this huge empty city, the only thing they could hear was the sound of footsteps on the blue and white stone road.
I don't know when the empty city started, and the fog started.
The source of the fog spreads from a distance and the palace at the highest point of the monster city. It was very thin at first, but then it suddenly became thicker at a sudden speed, like a thousand invisible people hiding in the dark and fanning the flames. The thick fog, as thick as cotton, quickly spread to the streets and alleys on the ground, swallowing the place where the four people stood, and quickly spread farther behind them. Soon, wherever Lu Lie and others saw their eyes were wrapped in a gray and rotten tone, as if cataracts had appeared in their eyes, with extremely low visibility.
This feeling is really bad.
"Do you want to listen to the story?" Suddenly, Li Yuan's voice came from about fifteen steps left of Lu Lie.
No one responded to him. Lu Lie thought to himself: In such a ghost place, who has the heart to listen to the story of what kind of moves you tell?
Li Yuanjian no one paid attention to him. He probably regarded them as acquiescent and began to talk about himself: "There is a demon in the wilderness who has become a spirit, who can create the Haishi Lip Tower out of thin air, disguise as a prosperous capital, and lure those travelers who are eager to stay near. When the travelers entered the town, they found that this was a ghost city. The residents of the city were all evil ghosts who had been lured in and died here. At this time, the travelers wanted to withdraw from the town, but it was too late, so they could only stay in the ghost city forever and become one of them."
"Enough! Close your mouth." A cold scolding from the cannibal owl came from about seven steps ahead.
Although Lu Lie didn't speak, he cursed in his heart: "It's not good to say something, but he just told ghost stories in such a place. He really doesn't know how to look at the atmosphere."
Li Yuan laughed strangely: "Yuanyuan used to think that this was just a story made by a third-rate storyteller who cheated on some tea money. Don't you think the situation we are facing is very similar?"
Lu Lie hated this naughty child more and more. He ignored him and continued to walk along the path below his feet. The deeper he went into the empty city, the more the fog around him became.
Later, his vision was two steps away.
He fell into endless white.
I don't know how long it took.
He was completely lost.
"Hey! Is anyone?"
Lu Lie stopped and tried to determine the location of his companion.
"Hey, it's very beautiful, little bird, Li Yuan, are you still by my side? If you are there, just squeak!"
There was no response to him in the surroundings. After a long time, only the shrill sound of the wind in the distance echoed him.
"Damn, they must have gone far." Lu Lie sat on the ground in anger and cursed, "This damn fog! You can only wait for it to stop and continue moving forward."
These guys are so beautiful that they are walking too fast. With just a little effort, they can’t even hear their voices.
Lu Lie sat on the ground and cursed, while waiting for the fog around him to dissipate.
However, as he sat down, his cold sweat broke out all over his body.
How should I explain the sound of footsteps passing by in the fog around him?
