Chapter 402 Wisdom Entering Nether City
Chapter 402 Wisdom Entering Nether City
There are still eighty miles to go on the official road leading to Nether City.Lu Donglai, the head of the Lu family caravan, sat happily on the first carriage in the row, squinting his eyes and twirling his beard, humming a tune from his hometown.
This trip was very fruitful, and a lot of spoils were bought from the border.Pills, magic tools, talismans, exercises, etc., everything is available.After those monks broke into the endless ghost domain, they could die at any time, and of course the things they carried became trophies.
The Lu family caravan is doing this kind of business. They bought these trophies from the border at a low price, and then resold them to Nether City. This time they can make ten times the profit.
It was the first time that such a smooth and smooth return journey made Lu Donglai feel like a dream.Now there are only eighty miles left, if you hurry up, try to enter the city before dawn, and then go back to the shop of Lu's house to pay errands, and you can go to Xiangyan Pavilion to have a good time during the day, what a nice little day .
Lu Donglai closed his eyes slightly contentedly. Although the skeleton horses were a bit bumpy to drive, there was no need to drive them. They knew their way naturally, which saved a lot of trouble.
In the caravan, except for a few bottom-level guys who were still vigilant, most of them relaxed like Lu Donglai.After all, it was only eighty miles away, and it was impossible to encounter human monks or ghost thieves at such a short distance from Nether City.
At this moment, there was a loud bang, and the skeleton horse neighed in horror, jumping and running restlessly, and overturned the carriage.
Lu Donglai fell to the ground with a somersault, and his arm was broken with a "click".Fortunately, he is a zombie, and it doesn't hurt to break his arm.
"Damn! There is an enemy attack!" Lu Donglai cursed in surprise and anger: "Everyone is on alert!"
In fact, without him yelling, all the thugs and guys in the caravan woke up, copied their own guys and jumped out of the carriage to observe the enemy's situation in all directions.
But to their surprise, there was no trace of anyone, let alone ghosts.
"What's going on?" Lu Donglai looked around suspiciously, twisted his arm casually, and put it on with a "crack".
In fact, it is recognized that the brains of zombies are useless, and even a little slow.But it is also recognized that zombies are more loyal and fearless.Ghosts are more treacherous and cunning, but they are afraid of death, so zombies are usually used in the main business.
Seeing that Lu Donglai hadn't figured out the situation, a fellow wild ghost ran over from behind and pointed to the front of the official road: "Lord Lu, look, it should be that thing that surprised the horse."
Lu Donglai looked around, and sure enough, about thirty steps away, a deep pit exploded on the ground, and colorful rays of light radiated from the pit.
"The loud noise just now, is there a hole in the front?" Lu Donglai rubbed his temples. He is already a third-level zombie. Although his hands and feet are still a little stiff, the joints can already be bent. Let's make some comparisons. Like human action.In fact, rubbing his temples is of no use to him as a zombie, it's just that he still retains the habitual movements of his life.
"Yes, Lord Lu." A skeleton thug came over. His bones rubbed against each other and made a toothache sound. Fortunately, neither Lu Donglai nor the wild ghost guy would have teethache.Green fire was shining in the skeleton thug's eyes, and he said to Lu Dong, "Master Lu, I saw it clearly just now. After a loud noise, a hundred-foot-high multicolored glow bloomed in the deep pit, but it retracted after a flash. , there must be treasures unearthed in the deep pit!"
"Go, go and see!" Lu Donglai waved and walked over first. If humans would definitely let others go ahead, because there may be monsters and monsters in the deep pit, but these zombies, wild ghosts and skeletons What else is there to be afraid of?
Lu Donglai walked to the deep pit and looked down. He was suddenly surprised and delighted: "There is a big iron coffin under here! Look at the carvings on it, there must be treasures in the coffin!"
"Dig it out and have a look!" The skeleton thugs, wild ghost buddies, etc. were all overjoyed, and everyone worked together to lift the big iron coffin out of the deep pit.
"Huh? Why can't it be opened?" Lu Donglai tried hard, but he couldn't lift the coffin lid.Everyone also came to try, but even if everyone worked together, they couldn't open the coffin lid.
"Master Lu, there must be treasure in this big iron coffin. It's okay if we can't open it now. When we get to Nether City, we will naturally find someone to open it for us." The skeleton thug said.
"Well, our boss has a lot of capable people, and they will definitely be able to open it." Lu Donglai said happily, and he will definitely be rewarded for offering this.
"Master Lu..." All the wild ghost buddies and skeleton thugs looked at each other, and then one of the wild ghost buddies said: "Master Lu, this thing was not purchased with the principal given by the owner. It is a blessing for us people, why should we go back and dedicate it to the master?"
"What did you say?" The green fire in Lu Donglai's eyes was beating violently.
"Master Lu, we are all doing things for others, but we should do our part. This big iron coffin is clearly a windfall. Those of us who see it have a share. Why don't we take this big iron coffin alone? A good price at the auction, wouldn't everyone be happy if they made money?" The wild ghost buddy said "benevolently and carefully".
"This..." Lu Donglai hesitated for a while. The loyal man instinctively thought that it should be dedicated to his boss, but he also felt that what the wild ghost guy said was right.In addition, everyone except him was talking one by one, and none of them supported dedicating to the boss. Lu Donglai finally let go: "Then... okay."
"Okay, Lord Lu, since you agree, when we get back to the city, let's send this big iron coffin to a safe place first, and then deliver it to the owner. After delivering the goods, let's talk about how to deal with this big coffin." Iron coffin, how about it?" The wild ghost buddies struck while the iron was hot, and Lu Donglai was fooled by them and nodded repeatedly.
So things settled down.
The big iron coffin was carried onto the last carriage, and the Lu family caravan really entered the city before dawn.
If it was an outsider, even if it was a corpse or a ghost, he would also be strictly interrogated by the corpse soldiers and ghosts guarding the city.But the Lu family caravan is different, it is a well-known big business house in Nether City, the corpse soldiers and ghost soldiers let the Lu family caravan go easily without even checking.
After entering the city, the wild ghost guy greeted Lu Donglai: "Master Lu, you lead the team and walk slowly first, the two of us drive this car to hide first, and then we will chase you right away."
"Then... hurry up." How could Lu Donglai's dull brain be enough?Although he was proficient in handling daily affairs, he still couldn't turn around such emergencies, and was completely dominated by the wild ghost buddy.
The wild ghost buddy and a skeleton thug were driving the last carriage. When they passed an alley, they turned in and broke away from the big team.
When going deep into the alley, there is a row of dilapidated low houses.The carriage stopped, and the wild ghost guy went to push the low house away, and then worked together with the skeleton thugs to unload the big iron coffin in, locked the door, the wild ghost guy and the skeleton thugs looked at each other and smiled, then quickly turned the horse's head around, and drove fast I went to chase the caravan.
After they all left, Baotian came out of Wanjian's coffin, first took Wanjian's coffin, and then looked around. It was dilapidated and dimly lit, it looked like a house in a slum.
Bao Tian squatted on the crack of the door and took a look out. At this time, it was already daylight, and there were far fewer evil ghosts and walking corpses walking on the street.
It turns out that the Raksha ghost country and the world of strangers are completely reversed. When it is dark, the evil ghosts and walking corpses will come out to daily life. When it is dawn, they all close their doors and prepare to rest.
Bao Tian thought about it, it would be better to just wait for him to go out at dawn, and it would be convenient for him to do things, and he expected that the wild ghost buddies and skeleton thugs would not come back so soon.
Sure enough, as Baotian expected, when it was dawn, the wild ghost buddy and the skeleton thugs hadn't returned, and the evil ghosts walking on the street had disappeared, and the street looked very deserted and empty.
almost.Bao Tian swiped his finger lightly, and a sword light shot out from his fingertip, cutting off the lock as easily and silently as a kitchen knife cutting tofu.
Pushing open the door, Baotian looked outside, seeing that there were no traces of ghosts or corpses, he went out with confidence and jumped onto the roof.
Walking on the roof has three advantages. First, it is difficult to be noticed by others. Second, it is condescending to see clearly. Third, if the ghost soldiers who patrol the sun find it, it is convenient to escape.
Bao Tian stood on the roof and looked around, the first thing he saw was the tall and majestic palace.There seems to be a strict hierarchy in this Nether City.
The houses of ordinary civilians are one-story houses, while the houses of officials and dignitaries have two floors.And there is only the palace on the third floor, so the palace stands out from the crowd and is very eye-catching.
Bao Tian thought to himself, Zhuge Xiaoxian was taken away by Zheng Wenhui and brought here, it is obviously impossible to live in some residential house.
Presumably Zheng Wenhui and the others did not know how to hook up with the Rakshasa ghost king, so Zheng Wenhui hoped to use the Rakshasa ghost king's help to deal with Baotian.
That being the case, if you want to find Zhuge Xiaoxian, of course you have to go to the palace first.
Bao Tian recognized the direction, and then performed the peerless lightness kung fu of Dengping crossing the water. His figure was like a string of light smoke floating in the sky, flying around on the roof, and soon came to the palace wall. outside.
White walls, black tiles, Baotian, who is dressed in white and has black hair all over his head, looks like a whole when he stands by the wall.He didn't know what kind of strength the Rakshasa ghost king was, let alone how many powerful people were in the palace, so he didn't dare to release his consciousness at will, lest he would startle the snake.
Let's go in and take a look, Baotian jumped decisively, crossed the three-foot-high palace wall, and floated into the palace.
