Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh: the city of death
"Uh~~"
In front of the abandoned grave, a skeleton sat blankly with empty eye sockets, seemingly like two black holes of thinking, meditating on a philosophical question about himself and even about the universe.
Who am I, where am I, where do I come from, and where am I going.
In front of me is an endless stretch of mountains, with strange tombs standing there.
From time to time you can see little bits of phosphorus fire flashing.
I believe that I am not the only skeleton thinking about this issue.
However, just when Skeleton was very confused about his life.
In the silent mountain forest, a low humming sound was heard.
The sound came very quickly, as if by the time it heard it, the sound was already close at hand.
"careful!!"
With a roaring roar, the skeleton's eyes were suddenly covered by a ball of flames, followed by a huge fireball, which hit its face directly and instantly scattered bones on the ground.
When it came back to its senses, it was staring blankly at a human face in front of it, looking face to face with itself.
"I just said, don't drive this way! Go down!!"
A big, skinny hand grabbed the skull's head from behind the young man and threw it into a bird's nest on a branch nearby.
"I didn't know this place was full of cemeteries!"
Ding Xiaoyi muttered without looking back.
At the same time, he twisted the handlebars, and a steady stream of psychic energy poured into the engine along the golden wires on the handlebars.
Suddenly, I saw flames flashing on the wheels of the motorcycle, four pillars of fire visible to the naked eye, and a red fire dragon spurting out from the exhaust port.
With a whooshing sound, a motorcycle wrapped in flames was seen, rushing through the dense forest in front of it at extremely fast speed, towards the ruins in the distance.
It left little sparks on the ground wherever it passed.
"Buzz~~buzz!"
The car circled the ruined road and headed north until it passed through the ruins and then gradually slowed down.
It wasn't until we came to a flat grassy area that the car stopped steadily on the side of the road.
"Not bad, a little faster than when I took the sedan!"
The old man jumped out of the car, took a look around, and patted the back seat of the car with satisfaction.
"No, no, I can't stand it anymore, this thing consumes too much psychic energy!"
Ding Xiaoyi jumped out of the car, his face turned pale.
Such a rich psychic energy was actually drained away.
However, when he saw the motorcycle in front of him that he had modified by himself, he still couldn't hide the proud look on his pale cheeks.
The motorcycle in front of me has completely changed its appearance.
There are no tires, but as long as the engine is started, the pattern on the wheel hub will surge out of the two forces of wind and fire, making the car semi-suspended.
On the dark engine hood, hair-like gold wires outline strange lines.
If you look closely, you will find that each line drawn by the gold wire has a different color.
These threads all converge on the empty ring under the hood.
On it, layer upon layer of arrays were densely drawn, with four unique gems embedded in them.
These psychic materials are all of high quality.
I believe that even among some big families, not many survive.
It's too luxurious to have them all piled up in a mess.
Most of these psychic material gems come from the great elder of the Tumen tribe.
Otherwise, I really wouldn’t be able to gather so many psychic materials.
"How about it, this is a good idea!"
Ding Xiaoyi pointed to the empty ring in the center of the engine. This place is supposed to be the core of the engine, which is the cylinder block.
But now the cylinder has been hollowed out by itself.
Transformed into a huge circular empty ring.
The psionic essence will be injected through the engine's fuel injector to activate the gems in the empty ring.
Then the power of the gem will be transported into the car body along the specific formation line diagram.
If Sardar saw this design, he would definitely go crazy. This is clearly his design concept for the spirit pool.
It was just shamelessly plagiarized and modified by Ding Xiaoyi.
The only bad thing about this design is that it doesn't have the ability to dissolve everything and convert it into spiritual energy like the Spirit Transformation Pool.
He could only use a simple trick and directly use psychic essence as fuel.
Or you can directly inject your own spiritual energy into it through the gold wire on the handle.
"Why is there a square empty slot left here?"
The old man pointed to the engine and asked at the center of the empty ring.
"Because this place is used to store this!"
Ding Xiaoyi said, took out the wild woman's space gem, and gestured to the old man a few times, indicating that the space gem could be put in.
With the space gem, your motorcycle can quickly travel through space.
But I didn't understand the formation in the space gem thoroughly, so once I teleported, I couldn't control the location of the teleportation.
That's why it was taken down and put back in after I thought about it thoroughly.
"interesting!"
The old man nodded and was very interested in the motorcycle that Ding Xiaoyi had successfully modified in the past few days.
The speed is a bit slow, but it's really cool enough.
As we drove along, we attracted countless monsters from the underworld, all of which were running behind us.
However, these monsters immediately dispersed after noticing the aura left by Old Man Zao intentionally or unintentionally.
This is the reason why Ding Xiaoyi can boldly experiment with his motorcycle in the netherworld.
"Didn't you say you would take me somewhere? How far away?"
This time I was experimenting with a motorcycle, but the old man suddenly went out of his way and offered to join me, saying that he happened to be taking him to a place.
This request was something I couldn't ask for.
It's been two hours since we drove here, and we still haven't arrived yet.
"Then just follow me, it's only a few minutes away!"
The old man looked at the mountains in the distance and said to Ding Xiaoyi.
Ding Xiaoyi nodded, it was only a few minutes away.
Anyway, I can't turn it on. I don't have enough spiritual essence to burn it.
Just let the meat ball swallow the motorcycle first.
"Caught it!"
The old man grabbed his wrist and took a step forward. The scene in front of him was suddenly pulled into long and thin threads.
When Ding Xiaoyi sees clearly.
The surrounding environment has already changed.
The ruins and the top of the mountain are completely gone.
All I could see was a majestic pass standing in front of me.
"That's it, let's go!"
The old man let go of his hand and walked up the path.
As he walked, he looked at the muddy gravel road on the ground and couldn't help but shake his head: "When you came here before, you couldn't even go up these steps, but then a little thief who didn't know where he came from stole all the steps.
gone!"
"Stealing all the steps? You are so poor!"
Ding Xiaoyi followed behind, complaining in his heart.
But then I thought about it, and felt a little embarrassed. I didn't even let go of the stone tablet, so it wasn't much better.
But being able to run up here and throw yourself up the steps is not just for the taking, so I wondered in my heart: "What's behind that little thief?"
"after……"
The bad old man frowned, shook his head and did not answer him.
I don't know if he doesn't want to say it, or if he doesn't know.
While the two were talking, they had already reached the city gate. Under the closed door, the two stood there, as small as ants.
Ding Xiaoyi raised his head and looked carefully, only to see three words written on the city gate: "Death in vain city"
"It's a waste of time! What did you bring me here for??"
When he saw these three words, his heart tightened, and the first thought in his mind was that of his grandfather.
According to the legend of the Xia people, the city of Wusi is the focus of people's destination. Before entering reincarnation, people will be left in the city of Wusi.
So, is my grandfather also in there?
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi's thoughts suddenly became complicated.
"Buzz~~"
The door in front of him opened slightly, and a wisp of smoke poured out along the crack.
You can vaguely see some shadows shaking behind the crack of the door, as if the city is very lively.
"Let's go. I brought you here today to meet someone and pick up some things."
As he said this, the old man led him forward.
With blue bricks and stone tiles, the buildings in front of you all give people a gloomy feeling.
Although Ding Xiaoyi was confused as to why the bad old man brought him here today, he still followed him closely.
Some shadows gradually began to become solid and clear, and in a blink of an eye they looked more like living people, shuttling around themselves.
From time to time, he would cast strange looks on himself.
"This is it. You go in and take out how much you want. You don't come to this place often anyway, so the more the merrier!"
Ding Xiaoyi raised his head and looked at the place in front of him, his expression suddenly became strange, and he turned back to look at the old man.
"Get something here?? Are you sure I can get it out??"
In the huge hall in front of you, there is a line of large characters written on the plaque: "Fengdu Tiandi Bank"
To put it bluntly, my money is issued by others, but I am not dead yet, where does the money come from in the bank?
Is it possible that I want to rob it?
"Just go in and get it without worry, someone has already deposited it for you!"
Someone saved it for me?
When Ding Xiaoyi heard this, he couldn't help but think of his grandfather. Apart from his grandfather, he couldn't think of anyone else who could help him arrange his money after his death so well.
Although he was dubious, he still walked towards the bank door.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a black ball of flesh, which rolled out from nowhere and landed at his feet.
The meat ball paused, and his limbs spread out, revealing his hands, feet, and head.
With his big black eyes and pointed mouth, he thought he was a giant monkey at first glance.
"A distinguished guest is here. May I ask whether you want to deposit or withdraw?"
Da Mahou had a thick account book in his hand and looked at Ding Xiaoyi with a flattering look on his face.
Ding Xiaoyi looked at the big horse monkey carefully, cleared his throat and said: "I will withdraw the money!"
As he spoke, he did not forget to take a sneak peek at the account book in Da Mahou's hand.
As a result, the ledger was completely dark and I couldn't see anything.
Da Mahou nodded, holding the account book and scanning it: "Ding Xiaoyi... um... yes, yes, yes, come this way!"
After saying "Come this way", I saw the palace in front of me moving around, as if the whole palace came to life. I didn't move at all, but the houses in front of me jumped past me one by one.
It wasn't until he stopped in front of a door that he came to a complete stop.
"Master, look above!"
As soon as Wangcai reminded him, Ding Xiaoyi couldn’t help but raise his head and read online.
I saw a wooden sign hanging on the door with my name written on it.
At this time, the giant monkey stuck out its long and slender tongue and inserted it into the keyhole. After twisting the tongue twice, the door lock was opened.
Pushing open the stone door, he saw large wooden boxes neatly placed in front of him in a huge room.
"These boxes..."
Ding Xiaoyi recognized at a glance that these large wooden boxes were exactly the same as those in his own home.
The only difference is that these boxes have seals on them, with Ding Xiaoyi's signature written on them.
