Chapter 4099: The crisis of the ghost town (2 more)
Once upon a time, thousands of people flocked to the Netherworld Valley in search of treasure. As a result, they suffered numerous casualties. Today, less than one tenth of them return alive.
Even with the help of Tang Xiaobao and Mo Xiong, these people were almost dead.
It is precisely because of their help that all these talents did not perish.
This is reality.
Very cruel.
If you are not strong enough, you can only serve as cannon fodder, or even die meaninglessly.
So many people died in the ghost city all at once. It was a heavy loss for the entire ghost city, and it was also a huge loss for the entire first layer of heaven.
However, when the lucky ones escaped and fell into the monster forest again, what they faced was another disaster.
At this time, more than a dozen monks looked at the vast dense forest, feeling sad in their hearts.
The leader is Li Yunlong, the head of the Li family.
He was once the head and representative of the first-rate forces in the ghost town. This trip to the Netherworld Valley made him truly realize the preciousness of life.
Xia Weiliang and Wen Guangjun who were traveling with him both died.
And among the many elites from the Li family he brought with him, only two of them are still alive with him.
"Master Li, can we return to the ghost town alive?"
A monk said in frustration.
roar!
In the dense forest, the roar of monsters can be heard from time to time.
Li Yunlong took a breath and said: "Why not, but you have to listen to me. If anyone is left alone now, he will really die without a burial place."
"This is natural, Master Li, we all obey your orders."
"Yes, now we must unite."
"Whoever is left alone will really die."
"We only follow the lead of the Li family."
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
Li Yunlong nodded and named a few people to be the vanguard. He was in the middle army. Although some people had many complaints, they did not dare to raise them.
The group of people started heading towards the ghost town.
Three days later, they finally saw the ghost town and finally walked out of the monster forest.
However, out of a dozen people, only five are left.
None of the three members of the Li family died.
However, even Li Yunlong is very haggard now.
In the past three days, they have experienced dozens of battles. Those monsters that usually hide in the forest and avoid human monks have been like eating the courage of a bear and a leopard in the past three days.
They launched an ambush.
It is really not easy to survive.
Several people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone, we survived."
Li Yunlong sighed with emotion.
"Set off."
He issued a new order.
The five of them can finally fly in the air, which will undoubtedly avoid more ambushes. After all, there are not many bird-like monsters.
Another day passed and they finally returned to the ghost town.
When people saw them, for a moment, it was like a stone was thrown into the calm water, and the whole thing became noisy.
What happened in the Netherworld Valley has already been known to everyone after a day's spread.
Many people are very lucky.
In the Ximen Mansion, Ximen Wuyu looked at Ximen Zhiruo and said with emotion: "Fortunately, we listened to Mr. Ximen and didn't send anyone there. It is estimated that he really wanted to go, and 80% of the time he will not be able to come back. For us, the Ximen family
, this loss is unacceptable to us."
Ximen Zhiruo nodded: "Yes, fortunately Brother Ximen reminded me, otherwise it would have been over. These people are real. Brother Ximen has obviously tried to dissuade me countless times, but they just don't believe it. They can't blame others."
"I have a new understanding of Mr. Ximen. He is really a monster that is rare to see in ten thousand years. He is so young, but his cultivation has far exceeded that of the Immortal Emperor. It is really scary. What a pity!"
Ximen Wuyu shook his head.
Ximen Zhiruo's expression changed and she said nervously: "Ancestor, what do you mean? Don't you believe that Brother Ximen can come back alive?"
"He had a chance to come back, but he gave up. Think about it, he is still lingering in the third level and can't get out at all. He doesn't give up. I don't know how many dangers are waiting for the baby.
He, it’s not that I don’t believe him, I’m really worried about him.”
Ximen Wuyu told the truth.
Ximen Zhiruo frowned: "Then can we accept it?"
"Do you think it makes sense? Who can reach his current position? How can we get in? It is estimated that everyone will die before they can get together." Ximen Wuyu said.
Ximen Zhiruo became even more worried.
"Okay, don't worry too much. I came to you today for another important matter."
Ximen Wuyu suddenly said seriously.
"What's up?"
Ximen Zhiruo was stunned for a moment, a little listless.
Her whole heart was tied to Tang Xiaobao.
She didn't care much about other things.
Ximen Wuyu said: "According to reports from the family's spies, outside the ghost town, a large group of people are currently clearing out and collecting those thieves."
"Then what?"
Ximen Zhiruo was puzzled.
"Isn't the head of the family worried?"
"What's the meaning?"
Ximen Wuyu frowned and said: "Since the Red Thief Immortal was killed by Master Ximen, hundreds of thousands of thieves outside the ghost city have fallen into a leaderless situation. I heard that a few days ago, they were all discussing how to avenge the Red Thief Immortal.
That is of course a lie. Maybe it is true that they want to invade our ghost town. To them, a ghost town is nothing but a ghost town.
With extremely huge wealth, being able to occupy the ghost town is a huge temptation for them. However, now someone is suddenly annihilating and integrating them. Think about it, where did these masters come from? There is no one in our ghost town.
How dare you provoke these thieves who come and go without a trace or a fixed abode?"
"What does ancestor mean?"
Ximen Zhiruo finally became serious, and she also noticed that something was wrong.
"You've thought of it, haven't you?"
"You mean, these people may have been sent by the Realm Lord's Mansion?"
Ximen Zhiruo was shocked and continued: "Is the Realm Lord finally going to attack our ghost town? He has turned a blind eye for so many years, why is he suddenly going to attack now?"
"Because our ghost town is very empty."
Ximen Wuyu sighed.
"Then the matter is a bit serious."
Ximen Zhiruodao.
Ximen Wuyu said: "These thieves are a threat to our ghost town, and they are also a natural barrier. If they are absorbed, our ghost town will be really in danger."
"Then what does the ancestor have to say?"
"What I mean is that we have to be prepared for danger in times of peace and prepare for rainy days. Let the ghost town become a monolith first, and everyone must stick together to keep warm." A trace of murderous intent flashed in Ximen Wuyu's eyes: "Whoever is still fighting with each other at this time will not listen to us Ximen
If you want to go home, then I can only kill him as a warning to others!"
Ximen Zhiruo's expression changed.
She somewhat understood.
This is a trouble and a threat to the ghost town, and it is also an opportunity to the Ximen family.
A chance to unify the ghost town.
Pressure from the outside often makes the inside more united.
