"Not now!" Zhao Yuan's palms grasped the King of Ten Thousand Corpses like iron pincers. Although the King of Ten Thousand Corpses struggled desperately, he couldn't move.
Although the King of Ten Thousand Corpses is powerful, Zhao Yuan is even better in terms of raw power. After all, Zhao Yuan is a practicing "Ten Thousand Enemies" and is already good at strength. Moreover, the King of Ten Thousand Corpses has just been born, not only
Because his thinking has not been integrated and his strength has not fully awakened, he is naturally not Zhao Yuan's enemy.
"Creak, creak, creak..."
The King of Corpses gritted his teeth and made a harsh sound, but his body was caught by Zhao Yuan. He could only watch helplessly as the two green-robed Taoist priests disappeared into the crowd.
no!
Walking around like this is not an option. It seems that the people here are not good people. If you ask them rashly, you may not be able to get any information. On the contrary, you may get into trouble.
We need to find a place to live first and think about it long term.
After making the decision, Zhao Yuan found an inconspicuous inn close to the main building complex of the castle.
After a short period of observation, Zhao Yuan discovered that in addition to food and clothing, the hard currency here is crystal stones. It is estimated that there are no spiritual beasts and monsters here. Crystal stones are non-renewable resources, and most of them are brought in by cultivators.
, so it becomes more and more precious.
However, based on observation, Zhao Yuan believes that everyone needs crystal stones not for cultivation, but as currency, because in this Sha Miao Formation, everything is bartered. Many times, when you want something,
They may not necessarily exchange it with you, but the crystal stone is a universal kill and can be replaced with anything.
Although Zhao Yuan has a mountain of crystals on his body, he has no intention of using the crystals as currency. You must know that using crystals may make people here know that they are newcomers, so as to avoid being coveted by others.
There is no doubt that if crystals are used in public consumption, people will definitely be mistaken for newcomers and rich people.
"Boss, we want to stay at the hotel." Zhao Yuan walked to the counter, pretending to be carefree and familiar, and talked about the crowd.
"Bring it here!" The shopkeeper was busy calculating the accounts, and without even raising his head, he spread his palms on the counter.
"...Is this sword good?" Zhao Yuan summoned a flying sword from the Sumeru Ring. This flying sword was obtained from the underground palace in Kuaiji Mountain. Although it is not a magic weapon, it is still considered a top-grade weapon, even in Great Qin.
The empire is also worth millions of imperial coins.
Sure enough, when Zhao Yuan took out the flying sword, the shopkeeper immediately raised his head, his eyes shining.
"How long will you stay?" There was a fleeting hint of surprise in the shopkeeper's eyes. Obviously, he did not expect that anyone would be willing to part with such a high-quality flying sword.
"How long can we stay?" Zhao Yuan asked rhetorically.
"These... two years!" The shopkeeper hesitated.
"Two years." Zhao Yuan did not expect that accommodation here would always be calculated on a yearly basis. Although he was shocked, he shook his head calmly, picked up the flying sword and was about to go out.
"Three years, food and lodging included!" the shopkeeper said quickly as if he was afraid that Zhao Yuan would leave.
"Deal!" Zhao Yuan handed the flying sword and the scabbard to the shopkeeper.
"Haha, brother is a cheerful person at first glance." The shopkeeper smiled happily, put the flying sword into the Sumeru ring, and said: "There happens to be a room for two on the second floor. It's very good. Please!"
The shopkeeper called a waiter who was old and dim-eyed and took the two of them to the second floor.
The so-called second floor is actually the building of Shamiao Castle. It is very grand and spacious. However, because there are not many people and there are no unnecessary decorations, walking in the tall corridor gives you an eerie feeling.
The dim-eyed waiter took Zhao Yuan and the two to the room, opened the door with the key, threw the key to Zhao Yuan, and then left tremblingly.
“Great place!”
The King of Corpses walked in first and immediately cheered.
Zhao Yuan also walked in and was stunned. Is this an inn?
There is nothing in this so-called room. It is just an empty room. There are dust and cobwebs everywhere. There are a lot of mouse droppings on the ground. The only small window is almost close to the ceiling. You can't see the outside at all.
A ray of gray light shone into the room, filling it with an eerie and terrifying atmosphere.
No wonder it’s so cheap!
Seeing the King of Corpses sitting on the ground, his snow-white bathrobe immediately covered with dirt, Zhao Yuan could only smile bitterly. This place is the most suitable place for zombies to live, as if it was tailor-made for the King of Corpses.
.
"Why don't you sit down?" The King of Corpses asked when he saw Zhao Yuan standing blankly at the door.
"This is not suitable for humans, only zombies." Zhao Yuan shook his head.
"Creak, creak, creak..." The King of Corpses looked furious and stared at Zhao Yuan.
"What I mean is that it's only suitable for ordinary zombies, and it's not suitable for a respected King of Corpses like you." Seeing that the King of Corpses' inverse scales were touched, Zhao Yuan hurriedly explained.
"With my status, what kind of place should I live?" The King of Corpses slowly stood up and stared at Zhao Yuan with his sunken eyes, looking down on the world.
"You should live in a palace, you know? A luxurious palace!"
"Palace, yes, I remember it, a luxurious palace!" The King of Corpses patted his head and nodded fiercely, as if he wanted to keep Zhao Yuan's words in his heart.
"However, we can only live here for the time being. Fortunately, this place only needs a little cleaning... Can you clean it?" Zhao Yuan asked.
"I... can't, but I can ask a few corpses to help me clean up." The King of Corpses opened his mouth, corpse aura surged from his mouth, and black mist filled the air.
"Forget it, let me do it!" Zhao Yuan was startled and quickly stopped the King of Corpses. He didn't want a large group of zombies walking around in the room.
"oh."
Zhao Yuan activated his spiritual energy, and the majestic spiritual energy formed a vortex in the air. As the powerful force stimulated the energy, the vortex became more and more rapid. Soon, all the spider webs and mouse droppings in the room could not be inhaled.
In the unfathomable whirlpool, it disappeared into thin air.
There is still a lot of dust stuck to the ground. It may be that it has been there for a long time and cannot be sucked away by casting spells. If the spell is cast forcibly, the structure of the castle may be damaged. Zhao Yuan had no choice but to do it himself and borrowed some cleaning tools from the shopkeeper.
It took me two hours of busy work to finally clean the 300-square-meter room and make it spotless.
In order to ensure that others would not break in suddenly, Zhao Yuan checked the heavy wooden door, made a padlock himself and hung it on it. On the door, Zhao Yuan also arranged some small formations.
After completing all this, Zhao Yuan began to decorate the room.
The materials in Zhao Yuan's Sumeru Ring piled up like a mountain. Soon, Zhao Yuan decorated the room. The whole room was separated into three spaces by Zhao Yuan with cloth curtains. The two spaces were for him and the King of Corpses respectively.
One bedroom and the other can be used as a living room.
After utilizing the space, Zhao Yuan got some sleeping quilts and the like from the Xumi Ring. Unfortunately, Wan Ling'er and the others did not put down wooden beds in Zhao Yuan's Lingtai World and the Xumi Ring.
I can get two tents to lay on the ground.
"alright!"
Zhao Yuan looked at the brand new room with satisfaction.
"Is this a luxurious palace?" The King of Corpses was curious and touched here and there, and was even more interested in the orange tent.
"No, the luxurious palace is as big as this castle, and it is a hundred times more gorgeous than this. It is decorated with some works of art or gold crystals everywhere, and there are countless servants."
"Oh..." The King of Corpses didn't have enough brain power and was in a daze, as if he was imagining the myriad scenes of the luxurious palace described by Zhao Yuan.
"Sir, it's time to eat!"
While Zhao Yuan and the King of Corpses were talking nonsense, the feeble voice of the waiter came from outside.
"Yeah," Zhao Yuan replied casually.
"Guest, you'd better hurry up, otherwise, you won't have anything to eat later," the waiter urged.
"Okay, I'll be down right away."
…
The waiter left, and then heard him knocking on the door. Then, the originally suffocatingly quiet castle suddenly heard a burst of rapid footsteps. The footsteps were as dense as raindrops, making Zhao Yuan feel like he was marching.
A sense of urgency to fight.
"I'm hungry." The King of Corpses touched his shriveled belly. The rabbit he had eaten not long ago had already been vomited out. When he heard the meal, his stomach rumbled like thunder.
"Let's go have dinner together."
Zhao Yuan then remembered that although he could go without eating for months or even years, this zombie still seemed to need food. If he was not fed, things would be very serious if he went crazy and started eating people.
Zhao Yuan believes that zombies can eat humans without any psychological barriers.
call!
Zhao Yuan opened the door, and a figure flashed past, and a fierce wind blew, blowing off the peaked cap on the King of Corpses' head to the ground, revealing his bare head.
Huhhhhh...
Just as Zhao Yuan was about to speak, several more figures passed by the door. The strong wind was as fierce as a blade, and the force was terrifying.
"They seem to be in a hurry." This time, even the dull King of Corpses saw the clues.
"It's urgent... Oops, hurry up, let's go eat!"
Zhao Yuan suddenly woke up, grabbed the skeleton arm of the King of Corpses, pulled it suddenly, and chased those figures like lightning. Before leaving, Zhao Yuan grabbed the door with five fingers. The thick wooden door,
