Chapter 136 Ghost Banquet
If you want to say something is wrong... nothing is wrong!
No matter how peculiar the customs of the Southern Region are, they wouldn't hold weddings in the middle of the night, would they?

There is obviously only one guard on the tower, why are there so many warriors in the queue?
What's more, their cumbersome and luxurious costumes are completely different from the aristocratic dressing style that Han Yujue saw in Xin Helan.

The most strange thing was that, despite the loud sound, the doors and windows of every nearby household were tightly closed, and there was no other movement in the inn, as if Han Yujue was the only one who heard the sound of musical instruments in the whole city.

"Clang-boom-"

The festive beating of gongs and drums and laughter are still coming from outside the window.

Suspicious in his determination, Han Yu directly lifted Xiaoqi out of the space to strengthen his courage.

"Dog! Wake up, I'll take you for a walk at night."

"Hu-hu-"

"Who else can be more useless than you..."

Han Yujue had no choice but to hug the sleeping Xiaoqi in his arms, and slipped out of the window quietly.

In the middle of the night, Crescent City looks even more desolate and dilapidated.

There are ghosts everywhere.

Han Yujue followed the wedding party a few feet away, and saw them talking and laughing loudly as they walked towards the city gate.

The city gate, which was originally tightly locked, was wide open at this time, as if it was just waiting for the arrival of this pedestrian.

"Should I inform Murong Che and the others? I'm afraid that after talking to them now, these people have already disappeared."

Xiaoqi slept like a dead pig, and he couldn't expect it to report to him.

Han Yu decided to hesitate, but chose to follow this team closely to see who they were and what they were doing here.

Outside the West Gate.

In the desert, there were not as many hidden objects as in the city, so Han Yujue could only crawl on the sand and hide in the darkness.

After following for a while like this, a majestic city stood in front of Han Yujue.

The night cannot cover its splendor, the turrets and towers rise from the desert, and at the highest point of the city stands a majestic sacrificial hall.

"Unexpectedly, there is such a majestic city near Crescent City."

Han Yujue waited for the group of people to enter the city gate, and then followed them on tiptoe.

Just as Han Yujue stepped into the city gate, he heard a "squeak" and the gate was slowly closed.

Snapped!Snapped!
As the gorgeous wedding procession moved forward, the lanterns on both sides of the avenue lit up one after another as if they had sensed.

Han Yujue was suddenly exposed to the light, and hurried back into the shadows.

Just when she breathed a sigh of relief...

"Chirp!"

Xiao Qi even sneezed in her sleep!
The sound of joy stopped immediately.

brush!
A group of people turned around at the same time!
Just now they were chatting and laughing constantly, but at this moment, they were all expressionless, keeping a posture of looking back without moving, not even turning their eyeballs, as if at that moment, they all turned into sculptures.

It fell into an eerie silence.

Han Yujue covered Xiaoqi's mouth and hid beside a bush.

If the group turned around and searched at this time, Han Yujue would have nothing to hide.

However, they didn't, they just watched quietly behind them.

As if they couldn't go back.

Han Yujue tried his best to control and adjust his breathing, feeling more and more wrong in his heart.

It stands to reason that this entire oasis has been in decline for a long time.

The Crescent City, which was once hailed as the pearl of the desert, has already turned into that ghostly appearance. How could there be such a luxurious place nearby?

Not long after, the sound of musical instruments and chanting finally sounded again, and the team returned to its original state. Han Yujue finally felt relieved, and secretly poked his head out to spy on their movements.

After confirming that they would not return to search for people again, Han Yujue kept a certain distance and followed carefully.

This group of people kept walking towards the top of the city, and the sound of gongs and drums became more and more enthusiastic.

Finally, they stopped.

Ahead is a golden palace.

The gate of the palace opened slowly, and the sound of drinking and having fun came from inside.

The team continued to walk into the gate of the palace, and there was a burst of applause in the palace.

Han Yujue's figure flashed and followed into the palace.

Dare to feel that these people are here for the banquet!

There is a grand banquet in the palace, cups and toasts are exchanged, musicians play cheerful music to their heart's content, and dancers with the style of the southern regions dance their long sleeves lightly between the banquets, as graceful as a surprise.

The nobles in gorgeous and exquisite robes toasted and laughed, some were even drunk, and tore off their clothes to fight with swords.

It was a scene of a palace feast, not inferior to the night banquet held by Emperor Luoxuan that day.

"No shadow...?"

Han Yujue scanned everything in the palace, and noticed that every pillar of the palace was inlaid with night pearls, illuminating the palace brightly.

But there was no shadow of anything on the floor.

No matter how late he was, Han Yujue had already guessed what this situation represented...

"Not good, not good."

Han Yu decided to hang up his heart, and planned to sneak first.

Unexpectedly, such a noisy environment just woke up Xiaoqi.

"Oh! There is something delicious!"

Before it could figure out the current situation, it jumped up from Han Yujue's arms and onto the dining table.

For a moment, all the sounds in the palace fell silent.

Everyone turned their heads in unison, looking at Han Yujue expressionlessly.

Drunk and singing, at this moment, it seemed as if their soul had left their body, and they just stared at Han Yujue.

"Goofy! Come here, don't disturb other people's gatherings, what, you guys continue, haha..."

Han Yujue called out to Xiao Qi, who just took a bite of the apple and found that the red apple had turned into a child's skull, and fainted with a groan.

A woman at the banquet suddenly pointed at Han Yujue and let out a shrill scream. The others rose into the air and slowly floated closer to Han Yujue!

"I was still down-to-earth just now, how can I change into A Piao, I will become A Piao!" Han Yujue rushed up to grab Xiao Qi, and ran out!

Ghost Banquet City!
This city must be the Ghost Banquet City that the people in Crescent Moon City called, and she already understood the origin of the name!

The nobles at the banquet must be the ghosts of the Yinwolf Dynasty, and they hold the feast of the underworld here every night!
The people in Crescent City didn't lie to her!

It's just that she can't pinch those ghosts who are full of resentment at first sight and ask where the Earth Spirit Orb is, right?

Han Yu was so entangled in his determination, he took the dizzy Xiaoqi into the space, and ran to the locked palace gate in a hurry.

"Cross Holy Flame!"

With a fire spell, watch her blast the gate away!

However, the door did not open as expected.

The power of the fire curse seemed to be swallowed by the illusion, disappearing without a trace.

"What's going on, is there an enchantment?!"

Han Yujue remembered Yan Qingyun's saying that the only way to deal with ghosts was to cast ghost spells, but why can't ordinary spells break even buildings here?

Snapped.

Han Yujue felt a cold hand on his shoulder, and immediately lost consciousness.
