Chapter 78: The Thick Fog in the North City

I pushed the wooden lid in front of me that was obviously reinforcing, and pushed it away with a little force.

But when I entered my nose, there was a huge stench. The hay fell on me. A few leisurely sound of horse hooves appeared in front of me. A "curious" and "huge" horse face appeared in front of me.

There was no one around, just as Zhao Yinuo said, the end of this tunnel was extremely safe.

Compared to other places, there are only three or two torches burning here, making it even darker.

This is a stable in West City. The rent for each horse here is very valuable and is also the only "transportation" in this city. However, it is extremely difficult to get them down and keep them in such a dark environment.

I heard that the horses here are "rotating". They work here for about half a month and will be replaced again.

I pushed away the curious horse face in front of me with some amusement. I guess it would never have thought that someone would emerge from the open space behind its butt.

I pushed it away, and the good-tempered horse sniffed twice in dissatisfaction, and countless spits and snots spit on my mask.

But I didn't care about it, so I turned over and got up from the tunnel... Then I observed the surrounding environment, and flawed out of the stable and left here.

The location of this stable is on the edge of the West City.

By turning two alleys, you can reach the avenue where there are usually few people and ghosts. There is a real public area and no force can occupy it. In fact, there is very little flow and communication between the four cities, especially Bei City and East City.

The existence there will hardly come to West City.

While thinking, I ran quickly towards the exit of the stable. According to Zhao Yinuo, this is his territory, and his people don’t have to worry about any danger or the possibility of being betrayed.

Sure enough, there were a few people guarding the exit, watching the inexplicable emerge from the stables, as if they hadn't seen it.

Only one of the older guards called me and gave me a stronger yellow-maned horse silently.

I took it silently, turned over the horse... I threw away the mask that had been "destroyed" by the horse just now, pulled up the hat of the cloak, whipped it directly, and let go of the reins in my hand. The horse rushed towards the Taipei City like an arrow.

The wind raised my cloak, and it was still the coldness that pierced my soul.

The quiet streets, burning torches, and the silent buildings on both sides of the street. The only sound of horse hooves made me feel desolate and lonely. I don’t know if this trip will be able to return smoothly.

I try not to think about these more negative things.

In such a place full of yin energy, any negative emotions will be infinitely amplified by accident, making people sink into it and unable to extricate themselves.

I could only think about the map desperately. Before I left, I spent money on the ground, and the map I remembered me... there were red lines marked on the Taipei City.

"Even if you forget who you are, you must not forget the route marked by these red lines. It is the relatively fastest and safest route to break out of Taipei City. This is the greatest help I can provide you. Because of personal reasons, I basically won't leave here, and at most I can only move in the West City."

This is what Zhao Yinuo said to me. He seemed very sorry for not being able to accompany me to pick Thousand Soul Flowers.

But I think this is nothing. It was my responsibility to pick Thousand Soul Flowers, not his.

Before leaving, I asked him: "Before me, someone went to pick Thousand Soul Flowers. Are they all dead?"

"Before you, there were three people in total, and two of them ran away at the beginning. The remaining one was on the first street of Beicheng, and his soul was occupied by the evil spirits. My people went to steal his body and rescue his soul in Beicheng. Then they dragged people out and gave him a sanctuary and salvation." Zhao Yinuo said calmly. When he said this, he paused for a moment and continued: "So, you don't have to worry about the consequences that will be bad. At least I will do my best to give you a last peace of mind."

"Did you give him this roadmap?" This is my last question.

"I gave it to it. It is said that he can at least rush to the edge of the city, but he was not lucky and met a ghost king in a bad mood there. And Yang Shi is something that all the ghosts there coveted, you know." Zhao Yinuo told me everything he knew and told me all the words.

I nodded and turned around and left.

A bad luck is just helplessness, cruelty, but it is still reality... But I can't completely see it. When I got to the point of authenticity, I couldn't help asking: "How is his strength compared to me?"

"A well-known old cultivator has a lifespan of nearly a long time and has reached the conditions with the old beast before he can take this adventure. Compared with him, you are in a state of injury, you can say that you have no strength."

"Ha." Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing. The wind blew across my face seemed to be colder.

I have no strength, but I have to pick Thousand Soul Flowers. This is my destiny. To put it bluntly, as Zhao Yinuo said, fate is my choice.

I can no longer figure out whether the final result of such a choice is cost-effective? Just as I know, Ye Zhengling's sorrow is that if he doesn't fight with his life, he may not have a chance... Just like thousands of ordinary people who want to go to a higher level and have empty hands, they can only fight with their lives.

Although our purpose is different, I choose more about the responsibilities I should bear.

With my random thoughts, I have already rode my horse to Taipei City.

Before entering the market, a black flag was seen floating above the dark city, with a big word north written on it. Below the north, there was an x ​​mark, which was very simple to indicate danger. Remind those who may be walking in the wrong place, do not easily get close to this area.

The entire Beicheng was shrouded in thick fog. These fogs seemed not to flow, but just shrouded in Beicheng like a thick yarn.

When the horse reached the edge of these fog, it refused to move forward again... I couldn't ride my horse forward, riding such a vigorous horse through the Taipei City was almost a death-seeking act.

Looking at the Taipei City in front of me, I took a deep breath, then turned over and dismounted.

After patting the horse's neck, the horse neighed and ran towards the road he came... Looking at the horse's back, I inevitably felt a little lonely in my heart. I am alone again.

It seems that the yin energy here is much heavier than that in Xishi. Before entering the market, it has been affected by such severe negative emotions.

Gripping my teeth, I forced my head to turn around, pulled my cape, forced myself not to think too much, recognized the third alley in Taipei City, and then walked into it without hesitation.

"When you go into Taipei City, you must not provoke any ghosts. But if you provoke them, you must use Thunder to kill them immediately."

I thought about Zhao Yinuo's words in my heart, and one foot had already stepped into the fog.

Everyone was telling me that Taipei City was dangerous, but no one had ever told me how dangerous it was.

"If the scene in front of you can no longer maintain the 'true', then turn around and leave immediately and don't hesitate."

At this moment, I finally walked through the fog, and Zhao Yinuo's last reminder to me also appeared in my heart.

The so-called true meaning refers to the real world seen from the perspective of human beings... If you lose the "truth" and in Taoism, it means you are confused, or your will has been invaded, and quickly retreating is naturally the final choice.

The fog in front of me was very thick, but looking back, I couldn't see any way out, and I couldn't even see the way I came.

I had no intention of turning around, and I gritted my teeth and walked through it. Unexpectedly, only two or three steps away, the wind suddenly blew in front of me, and the mist in front of me was blowing away, leaving only a faint mist flowing.

The alleyways in Beishi finally appeared in front of me.

This... I swallowed and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of me!

The ghosts are densely packed with ghosts. In this lane formed by low and crowded houses, it is a ghost almost every one or two steps.

My scalp and hair exploded. Although I was mentally prepared, my heart couldn't help but beat violently when I saw so many ghosts... except for their pale faces, they were no different from their appearance before their lifetime. They were wearing typical clothes from the Qin Dynasty, but in terms of style and texture, they should be like poor people.

The faces of these ghosts all showed a kind of confusion and sorrow.

It's more of an indescribable despair.

They walk through the alleys, and from time to time there will be a fight between them, but the low houses are fighting for.

Everyone is dead, what's the use of fighting for a house?

I don’t know Beicheng, so Zhao Yinuo was originally planning to tell me in detail. Among the entire inner city, he is probably the one who knows the best in Beicheng.

But in the end, he didn't say it, just sighed and said to me: "Instead of understanding these, it's better to write down the route I've drawn for you. Knowing too much and being afraid is not a good thing."

I tried hard to calm my heartbeat. I couldn't let my blood and energy run too vigorously here, so if I could move, I didn't choose to run.

Here, you should not be too excited about all emotions. If you can calm down and calm, don’t be excited.

Because whether it is the vigorous flow of blood and qi or the emotional excitement... it will make the heart beat faster and the body will become hot. In this way, the "human flavor" will be severe!

Once discovered, I understood Zhao Yinuo's words when I looked at the dense ghosts in front of me.
