Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Chapter 353 The old man with corpse spots
In the cold moonlight, the silence of the Loess Plateau was broken by an extraordinary sight.

Under the thin gauze-like moonlight, a gigantic and vast city appeared quietly on the horizon of the Loess Plateau.

The walls of this giant city tower into the sky, and every stone brick shows the traces of time, but it shines with immortal light.

The architectural clusters in the city are scattered and scattered, like a three-dimensional picture. Palaces, markets, courtyards, and temples each exude unique charm.

The moonlight shines on the resplendent roof, reflecting the bright light, echoing the stars in the sky, forming the most magnificent night scene in the world.

The lights in the city are brightly lit, illuminating every corner of the giant city. The atmosphere of prosperity permeates the air, as if the whole world is condensed in this city.

"This is... the ancient country that never sleeps."

Rubbing his knees, Old Wei looked at the giant city mysteriously appearing on the horizon with a solemn gaze.

Regarding this forbidden land that was said to contain the treasures of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, he, who was completely obsessed with money, remained surprisingly calm at this moment.

It seemed that what was in front of him was not a golden mountain, but an abyss that chose people to eat.

After puffing out a mouthful of cigarette residue, Old Wei rested his head on the back of his head with his hands and lay casually on the ground:
"There are rumors outside that I, Old Wei, can come and go freely in this ancient country that never sleeps, but they don't know.

Sensing Qi Xiu's hesitation, Lao Weitou followed suit.

Under normal vision, the bustling ancient country of Evernight was suddenly held in the palm of a mysterious and gigantic hand.

"Oh? You do know how to do business." Hearing this, Qi Xiu raised his eyebrows. He had underestimated this dry old man before, but he didn't expect him to know something about marketing.

Suddenly raising his head, Qi Xiu saw the lightning flying above his head. With a casual move, Qi Xiu made the lightning above the sky fall into his hands like a baby swallow returning to its nest.

Taking out the five purple gold medals, Old Wei Tou happily kissed them.

"Hey, the old man doesn't have any other skills. He just knows a little bit about everything. But in this world, money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat. If you don't think of ways to promote yourself, how can a noble person like you come to me?"

Under the special vision of black and white.

"Hehe, because I have never been to that city."

With his hands behind his back, he stared at the huge city in front of him that was born under the moonlight. Qi Xiu pinched the magic formula with his lowered right hand, and a wisp of purple intention slowly emerged.

Seeing this secret, Qi Xiu took half a step back without revealing any trace. Although the inheritance of the Demon-Eating Sect was good, it was not enough to put him in danger.

But compared with the owner of this big hand, he is probably as small as a toy.

The size of the ancient country of Evernight is already breathtaking.

"My lord, let me forget it. This place is very evil. It looks magnificent and jeweled, but no one who entered it came back alive."

These words were spread by myself. "

"Then how did you come back?"

Just as Qi Xiu was gazing at the ancient kingdom of Evernight in front of him, hesitating in his heart, a streak of lightning suddenly crossed the night sky, and a stream of thunder suddenly passed over his head.

"Ok?"

Turning slightly sideways, Qi Xiu looked down at Old Wei who was chewing tobacco leaves again.

It's hard to imagine how huge and boundless the owner of this hand would be.

Qi Xiu's eyes changed instantly.

Lei Yin passes the message, the Shenxiao Sect conveys the secret method!

The thunder in the palm of his hand turned into a voice and sounded in Qi Xiu's ears. Upon hearing this familiar voice, the hesitation on the young Taoist's face slowly dissipated, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Let's go."

"Okay, I'll ask you to go to Zuixian Tower when you get back. I'm afraid you don't know that Zuixian Tower is the best among us..."

"Who said we were going back, I meant moving forward."

"what?"

Old Wei, who excitedly raised his feet and was about to walk back, heard this and raised his eyebrows directly to his hairline. He glanced at Qi Xiu several times with a strange look on his face, and finally sighed helplessly:

"Okay, okay, who makes you a noble person?

Sigh...why don't you listen to my advice? "

He looked helpless, even though he was unwilling in every way, but after accepting other people's money, Lao Weitou could only serve him to the best of his ability.

After all, the noble man in front of him is a pure thunder magic monk.

This angered him, and a thunderbolt came down, even saving him from being cremated.

With a slumped donkey face, Old Wei moved his head and led Qi Xiu forward, and Qi Xiu was also observing the steps of Wan Litong along the way.

The old man seemed to be walking casually, but in fact, the distance of each step was extremely accurate, and with each step, his fingertips were faintly pinching, as if he was calculating something.

The seemingly simple task of guiding is far from being as simple as it seems.

After twists and turns, Old Wei led Qi Xiu closer and closer to this ancient country that never sleeps and is bathed in the cold moonlight.

The closer he got to this legendary forbidden land, Qi Xiu gradually felt an underlying pressure.

But it was just pressure, and his intuition had not sensed the potential danger.

Step by step, Qi Xiu followed Old Wei, unable to control the light, making the road to the ancient country of Evernight seem extra long.

We walked for nearly two hours.

The moonlight in the sky also reached its peak brightness.

The old Wei in front of him paused, bent down, and let out a long breath:
"Okay, we've arrived."

"Are you here?" There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but just when Qi Xiu raised his head again, the ancient country of Evernight, which was still some distance away from them, had suddenly arrived in front of the two of them.

The towering city gate is like a pillar holding up the sky. Looking up, you can't even see the gate tower clearly. A few white clouds under the moonlight are suspended in the middle of the city gate.

"My lord, Old Wei, I can only take you here. I can never enter this city."

After taking several deep breaths and gradually regaining his composure, Old Wei forced out a smile and bowed to Qi Xiu.

His mission is to lead Qi Xiu to find the Ancient Kingdom of Evernight.

Now that the ancient country is in front of him, his mission is over, and the next thing has nothing to do with him.

It's just that the noble man in front of him is a master after all. Although he wanted to turn around and run back now, he was still worried about offending this gentleman, so he had to say goodbye to him with a smile on his face.

"Well, thank you for your hard work. This is the final payment."

He raised his hand and threw out five more purple gold medals. Before Qi Xiu could finish his words, he saw that the five purple gold medals were instantly taken away by an afterimage. Old Wei's head, who was still in front of him just now, had turned into a shadow, dragging a surging shadow. The yellow smoke left only a small dot in the blink of an eye.

"My lord, please take care of yourself~~~"

The howl at the top of one's throat slowly drifted in at this moment.

Looking at the gradually settling smoke and dust with a smile, Qi Xiu shook his head, turned around, and looked at the majestic giant city in front of him.

Boom——

As if due to some mysterious perception, the city gate of the Evernight Kingdom, which had been closed just now, slowly opened after Old Wei Tou left.

It seems that it will not force anyone who does not want to enter here.

Thick clouds and mist escaped with the opening of the door, like a fairyland waving to Qi Xiu.

"Are you so polite?"

With a faint smile, Qi Xiu, who had support behind him, rolled his sleeves and then slowly walked towards this legendary ancient forbidden land.

Pass through the long and sleepy city gate.

There are many shops on both sides of the wide street, and their signboards sway in the wind, as if they are still waiting for customers to come.

The deep ruts on the stone road bear witness to the busyness of the past.

However, all this excitement and prosperity now only have empty echoes, no trace of people, no breath of life, only silent buildings and silent streets.

The lights are still bright, but no one is watching; the market is still lively, but no one is trading; music is floating in the air, but no one is listening.

In the city full of lively traces, there is not a single person to be seen. All the bustling scenes seem to be frozen, exuding an inexplicable weirdness.

"A deserted and prosperous ancient city?"

Looking at the ancient city in front of him that exuded a sense of contradiction and weirdness, Qi Xiu waved his sleeves and spilled a handful of soybeans.

In an instant, there was a golden light, and the ground shook one after another.

Hundreds of yellow scarf warriors stood up slowly, their resolute and brave eyes scanning the surroundings subconsciously, with deep hostility and vigilance in their eyes.

"My lord, the evil spirit in this place is very strong, and there must be many strange things happening there."

As the most holy secret method in Huang Gong's literature, the Yellow Turban Warriors are not just puppets with powerful combat power. These holy spirits are born from the justice and righteousness of heaven and earth. They are born with keen senses and have a strong sense of evil and demons.

Even Qi Xiu hadn't noticed anything strange in the city, but these yellow scarf warriors had already reacted.

"Do you know where it is?"

Qi Xiu raised his eyelids slightly and asked.

Closing his eyes, hundreds of yellow scarf warriors all radiated their senses. In the haze, the shadow of a giant more than a hundred feet tall condensed in the void. A pair of eyes as bright as the sun shone across the four extremes. In a short time, he found a few A rickety figure walking forward.

"found it."

"bring it here."

"Yes!"

In response to the shout, hundreds of yellow scarf warriors shot out instantly, flew through the air, and turned into hundreds of golden flying rainbows that sank into this ancient city that never sleeps.

Standing at the gate of the city with his sleeves rolled up, Qi Xiu half-closed his eyes and rested his mind.

It takes about one stick of incense.

The wind came, and two yellow scarf warriors escorted a man with corpse spots all over his body and his whole body in a strange "lost color" state.

Looking at the man who was only in black and white, Qi Xiu's eyes moved slightly and he used the Qi Reading Technique.

"This is……"

Under the observation of Qi Wangshu, there was an old man with a withered face, covered with corpse spots, and wearing a dark shroud lying on the back of the man in front of him.

The reason why the man's body is covered with corpse spots seems to be infected by the old man on his back.

"It's not a remnant soul, or a thought? What on earth is this..."

Looking at the old man on the man's back with narrowed eyes, Qi Xiu slowly frowned. No wonder Old Wei was afraid of hearing about this ancient country that never sleeps.

What he encountered as soon as he entered the city this time was completely invisible to him.

It seems that this forbidden area... is dangerous.
