Looking at the furry little beast, Yun Duoduo asked in surprise, "Brother Gu Yuan, what is this?"
Gu Yuan looked at it carefully and said, "I don't know it either. This thing looks a bit like the fox over there in our God-Forsaken Land. Let's go over and have a look."
Seeing Gu Yuan getting closer and closer, the little beast struggled violently in excitement.
At this moment, an earth-shattering roar came from the distance, seeming to urge the little beast.
The little beast let out a sharp cry, then lowered his head and bit off his own tail.
With half of its bloody tail, it rushed up to the courtyard wall and ran away without looking back, leaving little traces of blood on the ground.
Gu Yuan took back the Yulin Blade and wiped the blood while looking at the severed tail on the ground.
It seems that this ancient city is not at peace either. That roar just now must have come from the mouth of some ferocious beast.
The ferocious beast was able to control the little beast, but it did not attack Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan guessed that this vicious beast was guarding a certain elixir and it was difficult to leave.
Or, this ferocious beast is already trapped somewhere and cannot leave at will.
The unknown existence behind him made Gu Yuan even more eager to collect this elixir from the ancient city.
They didn't know what kind of existence it was, but it kept wandering near them.
Gu Yuan only hoped that he could find the elixir as soon as possible.
Only in this way can he take Yun Duoduo away from this deserted ancient city that has fallen into deathly silence as soon as possible.
The two continued walking on the deserted street.
This time, he let Yun Duoduo walk in front.
The distance between him and Yun Duoduo was always no more than one arm.
Gu Yuan is responsible for breaking out the enemy and investigating the surrounding situation.
In this way, the two of them explored carefully along the way.
While guarding against the unknown existence.
While looking for places where the elixir might grow.
Until a certain moment, Yun Duoduo suddenly stopped.
"Brother Gu Yuan, what do you think that is?"
Yun Duoduo said, raising her arm and shaking her finger.
Gu Yuan, who was always paying attention behind him, almost bumped into her.
Gu Yuan, who hurriedly stopped, finally turned his head and understood the reason why Yun Duoduo suddenly stopped.
He looked along Duoduo's arm, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise:
"Glass grass! Isn't this the elixir that Chen Shu mentioned?"
Yun Duoduo was also very happy: "Then what are we waiting for?
Go pick it!"
"Wait a minute, Duoduo."
Gu Yuan held the Yulin Sword in his hand and looked around.
Yun Duoduo stopped and asked in confusion: "What's wrong, brother Gu Yuan, is there something wrong?"
Gu Yuan nodded. He did feel that something was not right around him. It was strangely quiet.
It stands to reason that there should be a guardian beast nearby, but now there is nothing.
Even the little beast that had been harassing them and the roaring beast behind the little beast did not appear.
A plant that looked like transparent glass was on a small mound less than twenty meters in front of them.
There is no hint of any danger around here.
Without anyone else having to tell him, Gu Yuan could tell from the various shapes and characteristics of this plant that this was the elixir that Chen Shu said grew in the abandoned ancient city, the glazed grass.
It's true that you can't find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it doesn't take any effort to get it.
Unexpectedly, before they reached the south of the city, this glazed grass was discovered by two people.
This glass grass is a good thing!
The surroundings were indeed surprisingly quiet, but in their excitement, the two of them seemed to have ignored the elusive fear before and walked straight towards the elixir.
Gu Yuan looked around cautiously.
Yun Duoduo walked to the glazed grass, squatted down and stretched out her white and tender hands, intending to pluck the glazed grass.
In the next second, you can have the elixir in your pocket.
Gu Yuan had even taken out the small brocade box containing the elixir from his treasure bag and was about to hand it to Yun Duoduo.
Who would have thought that before Yun Duoduo could take the medicine?
Suddenly, the originally dark sky suddenly turned dark red.
The sun disappeared, and a blood-red color enveloped the sky.
This sudden and terrifying sight made Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo stunned.
Gu Yuan pulled Yun Duoduo and pulled him behind him, while he stepped forward and stood in front of Yun Duoduo.
"Oh, my God, how could this happen?
Brother Gu Yuan, look quickly, the elixir is gone."
Yun Duoduo pointed at the bare mound in front of him and exclaimed.
Gu Yuan heard Yun Duoduo's exclamation and quickly stepped forward to check, only to see that the mound where the glazed grass originally grew was now gone.
Gu Yuan anxiously dug the soil with his Yulin Sword and found that the soil on the mound was dry and solid, with no trace of any plant growth on it.
Gu Yuan was a little strange. He just saw a spiritual medicine plant growing here. Could it be an illusion?
Gu Yuan was unwilling to dig up the nearby mounds of soil.
"Ah! Brother Gu Yuan, look quickly, what is this?"
Just when Gu Yuan was frantically digging the mound in order to find the elixir, a scream from Yun Duoduo made him feel something in his heart and he immediately turned around.
I saw that the originally dry and flat land around me began to turn from bottom to top.
Blue-gray hands with dark red blood stains came out of the ground, pushing hard on the surrounding soil, trying to uncover the things that covered them.
Slowly, some layers of soil began to be pushed away.
One by one, gray "humanoid creatures" began to emerge from the ground. They stood up on their hands and staggered towards the two people.
Their throats roared like wild beasts, they raised their hands forward and rushed towards Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo crazily.
At the same time, in the surrounding houses, candles as dim as beans were lit, emitting a brilliant blue light.
On both sides of the street, in the dilapidated houses that should have been empty, now many pale figures emerged out of thin air, and bursts of noisy whispers could be heard.
Gradually, the whispers turned into shrill howls.
Countless gray-white figures struggled and began to pour out of the dilapidated houses.
They looked almost translucent, their eyes were blood red, and they appeared in groups, swarming towards Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo like swarms of swarms.
Such a scene is more frightening than the various ferocious beasts encountered before, and Yun Duoduo almost collapses.
She cried and completely shrank herself behind Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan was also shocked and opened his mouth wide by the scene in front of him.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
An abandoned ancient city actually hid so many undead souls, which looked very much like the zombie movies he had seen on Earth.
Is it possible that the reason why this ancient city is deserted is because the undead have taken over the world of the living?
However, didn't Yun Duoduo say before that it is impossible for an ancient city to exist in the secret realm of the sect?
So where did this ancient city come from?
Although he had all kinds of doubts in his heart, Gu Yuan did not dare to slow down the movements of his hands and feet.
