I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 266
The grasslands and hills are rolling and undulating, and most of the places are uninhabited. The only people walking in it are a Taoist, a girl and a bay red horse.

Empress Sanhua specially kept her human form, so that she could carry her own money, and she would reach out to touch it from time to time.

"It turns out sheep are so expensive!"

"People in Dayan like to eat sheep."

"People in Dayan like to eat sheep." Mistress Sanhua repeated but couldn't help feeling puzzled, "Why don't people in Dayan like to eat mice?"

The Taoist just smiled without saying a word, and continued to move forward.

Two figures, one big and one small, together with the bay red horse, sometimes climbed up the hill, sometimes walked slowly downhill, and sometimes walked on the ridgeline of the sky, looking for the road, and also looking for the Turtle City.

Finally arrived at dusk.

This place is relatively flat, the hills are very low, and the amplitude is also slow. A long earth-colored dragon can be faintly seen on the ground, connecting an earthen city.

It can't be said that there is no grass around Tucheng, but after all, there is a lot of ghosts and yin, and most of the surrounding grass does not grow well, and a large area is withered and yellow.

Song You stopped far away and sat cross-legged.

He took out a small jade bottle from the quilt bag, took the Yan'er Pill, and it turned into a swallow.

Flying high into the sky, I feel that the grassland is boundless, the edge of the earth has become an arc, and the sunset is slowly setting, which is magnificent.The cool air and the vast world add a touch of freedom to flying.

The earth city below is also displayed more intuitively.

This was originally a military fortress.

Why is it called Turtle City?

Because its main body is roughly an ellipse, and there are protruding urns in four directions, the whole shape is like a tortoise with four legs, hence the name.

The swallows flapped their wings, changed directions freely, and flitted lightly in the air.

It's not like observing, more like playing.

Experience the freedom that ordinary people can't experience.

Seen from a high altitude, the entire body of Turtle City is built of loess, surrounded by a moat, a pond outside the city, and a temple built. I don't know who it was originally dedicated to, but it is now deserted.There are many houses in the city, I don’t know what they were originally allocated for, almost no roofs, no doors, it looks like it has been burned by fire, it seems to have been abandoned, and it seems that there are still people living in it, which is quite strange.

It looks like it can accommodate at least a few thousand people.

In addition, Turtle City is also connected to the Great Wall.

One leads to Yandu, and the other leads to the north, which should be directly connected to the border.

However, whether it is Turtle City or the Great Wall, they were all built by the previous dynasty. I don’t know whether it is no longer in line with Dayan’s national conditions strategy, or there is something unreasonable in the original setting, and it has been abandoned. The damage on the Great Wall No one is going to repair it.

Slowly, the sky darkened.

The swallow lowered its height and almost passed over the top of the Turtle City, vaguely seeing a ghost below it, and before the ghost found it, it passed lightly and flew out of the city, as if it was going to return to its nest.

"..."

The swallow crashed into Taoist's body.

The Taoist also opened his eyes.

Empress Sanhua obediently sat next to him, took out the money and counted it again, then reluctantly put it in the quilt bag, and then turned back into a cat.

"Let's go."

The Taoist stood up and walked into the distance.

Both the cat and the horse followed.

On the vast land, the Great Wall built of loess leads directly to the Turtle City in front. The Taoist walks all the way to the bottom of the Great Wall and walks along the Great Wall. He looks at the distance as well as the Great Wall. Fragments of bone, cloth, and arrow clusters that had not been cleaned.

Maybe it will be dug out many years later.

After walking far, the sky became dark, and the moonlight tonight was brighter than last night, but I still couldn't see clearly.

The Taoist felt in the dark and walked in that direction.

"Someone came out...

"Oh! It's a ghost!"

The cat stretched its neck to look forward and said to the Taoist.

"How many people?"

"One, two...ten." Sanhuamao counted one by one and said, "They are heading for us, and they are going up here."

"Did you spot us?"

"Maybe not."

"Is that so..."

"what should we do?"

"What did Empress Sanhua say?"

"They seem to be talking while walking." The cat stretched its neck and almost stood up, not only looking through the night, but also seeing far away, with deep curiosity in its eyes, "We can quietly hide and listen to them What are you talking about, that must be fun."

"Just do what Mistress Sanhua said."

Song You smiled slightly and continued to move forward.

The cat seems to have a special obsession with eavesdropping, watching and hiding its tracks. As it gets closer, it not only slows down its steps, but also turns around and tells the Taoist to be careful and walk along the edge of the Great Wall.

Song You had no choice but to do as she said.

The two sides are getting closer.

One side is on the Great Wall, and the other side is under the Great Wall.

The Taoist had already stopped.

The night wind blew this way, but he did hear voices from above.

It seemed that he was the one discussing it.

"A monster as big as Heyuan, the gods he was born with, can be eliminated!"

"No matter how big a monster is, how can it compare to a god?"

"That's not certain. Didn't the people on the ground succeed in rebelling? Maybe the Heavenly Palace will change the dynasty!"

"Do you dare to say that?"

"Don't dare to say it alive, dare not say it dead? Besides, I heard that the demons in Hezhou were not eliminated by the gods of the Heavenly Palace at all, but by a Taoist on the ground."

"A Taoist on the ground? It's almost the same as a fairy coming down to earth!"

"I heard that he brought a bay red horse and a three-colored cat with great supernatural powers and great abilities, and he was actually in Heyuan... You knew about Heyuan, right? It's flat, and the Taoist just moved here from another place. put a big mountain in the middle of Heyuan, and suppressed the demon king." The ghost walking in the front said, and was a little worried, "Sometimes I think, the demon king as big as Heyuan is in the north. Even if it’s not the most powerful demon king among the demon kings, he’s also the hardest to kill, right? They’ve all been suppressed, and we ghosts are here, huh, I don’t know how long we can live at ease.”

The Taoist stood still, and so did the cat and the horse.

This group of ghosts came from in front of them and above their heads, getting closer and closer, stopping and walking slowly, as if they hadn't noticed the group of people standing below at all.

"Didn't there be thunder a few days ago? It was a sunny day. One struck the northern tower."

"Hey, this Yangjian is a world of living people, how can it accommodate us? Wait for Lei Gong to free his hand..."

"Why do I feel something is wrong?"

"Me too."

"Someone!"

This group of ghosts was once an elite frontier army. Even though they were all in the distance and the sky was pitch black, they still found the people below.

All the ghosts lay down on the side of the Great Wall, looking down.

By the moonlight, I saw someone.

Not only people, but also horses.

"who?"

"It's a human or a ghost!"

"Is it a ghost or a demon?"

Suddenly a ghost jumped down from above.

The Zhang-high Great Wall falls to the ground with ease.

Seeing this, the rest of the ghosts also followed.

Just ten ghosts.

Some ghosts still wear the armor they had when they were alive, either broken or intact, while others don't, and only wear commoner clothes, but none of the ghosts have weapons.

"call!"

A ghost leaped high and rushed towards Song You first.

Sanhuamao's expression froze, and he opened his mouth to exhale.

"call……"

A large canopy of flames exploded, illuminating the rough surface of the Loess Great Wall, revealing the dead grass all over the ground, and also illuminating the people and ghosts here.

"what!"

The ghost shrank back even faster.

The rest of the ghosts were not so irritable. They stared straight at the Taoist, Sanhuamao and Claret Horse reflected by the flames below, and their eyes widened immediately.

"This……"

The character who was still talking about like a myth just now appeared in front of him.

It's an indescribable feeling.

The Taoist looked at them with a calm face.

They also looked at the Taoist, but they were extremely shocked.

"I have seen a fairy..."

A ghost in armor clasped its fists first and saluted.

"See... I've seen a fairy!"

The rest of the ghosts followed suit one after another, their voices were trembling, and they all had different accents.

"Where are you guys going?"

"..."

All the ghosts looked at each other for a while.

It was the armored ghost who was the first to speak and said, "Return to Immortal, we, let's go around..."

"On patrol?"

"Back to the Immortal, I dare not lie to the Immortal, I just go out for a stroll out of boredom, but if we encounter evil spirits, we have indeed taken action to kill them."

"I see."

Song You nodded, expressing his understanding.

People are complete, but ghosts are not. Without a physical body, many ghosts have obsessions, and they have to endure a living environment that is completely contrary to their previous habits. Some strange behaviors are also common.

It's like Changjing's scholar ghost.

Look at these ghosts again-

Not only the accents are different, but the faces are also different. Some look like Central Plains people, some look like grassland people, both in the north and the south, and some even have faces from the Western Regions.

This is also normal in Dayan's frontier army.

"I don't know about the immortal... but the immortal who suppressed the demon king in Heyuan?"

"You have lived here for a long time, and after death, you become ghosts. You hide by day and come out at night. You should have little contact with people. How do you know?" Song You asked.

"..."

Hearing his confession, all the ghosts were even more surprised.

Although he is an elite frontier soldier, no matter how elite he is, he will be afraid of the high officials in the court and the gods in the sky, let alone this one.For a moment, all the ghosts thought that he was here to exorcise ghosts, and his own death time had come.

"Back... back to the immortal..."

The ghost who spoke earlier saluted tremblingly: "There are often correspondences between Caotouguan in the south and the border in the north. They are all brothers in the army. No matter who they are, when they pass by us, they often bring some meat and food. A glass of wine is offered to us, even for recruits. When passing by, some people will find a place to spend the night nearby. When encountering this kind of situation, we usually go there to thank them and talk to them by the way. If we don’t spend the night nearby, There is no way."

"I see."

"Fairy..."

"I'm just a Taoist, not a god. You can call me Mr. or Daoist." Song You smiled slightly, "I don't have that much malice here, so you don't have to be afraid."

"That gentleman came here late at night because..."

"I heard that in Turtle City, there are often ghosts who wander around at night, harming the cattle and sheep of the local people, and scaring people to death. In addition, it is really rare for people like you to collectively form ghosts after death, so I think about it next. Come here to increase your knowledge, and I advise you to be more peaceful." Song You said, pausing for a while, "But now, it sounds like Lei Gong has noticed this place, so it's not my turn to take care of it. It's just that I have already come here , let’s go in and get a better understanding.”

"This……"

The ghosts looked at each other after hearing this.

Song You asked them, "Would you like to continue wandering forward?"

"Yuan'an City is right in front of us. With our skills, we will definitely not be able to stop you. Yuan'an City has long since lost its gates. Anyone can enter and exit during the day, but it can only scare mortals at night. There is really nothing to do." I can stop you." The ghost said, "Since you just want to go in for a stroll, let me take you there."

"is this okay?"

"Mister is a god, it is my honor to lead the way for him, what's wrong?"

"This is really breaking me."

"Please!"

After finishing speaking, the ghost made a gesture of please and led the way.

Song You couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
