Chapter 247 Things you shouldn’t say Under the moonlight, the green stone wall became mottled. The people below also began to change. Some of the flesh and blood disappeared, turning into white bones. Some of the bodies had a gaping wound, as if they were cut in half by a long knife, but they were forcibly pieced together. Some were covered in charred blood. Some were only half a body, with the internal organs exposed. …… The scene was horrific, but these people were unaware of it and continued to act the same as before. In a moment, this bustling ancient city seemed to have turned into a ghost town.
Mei Lisan turned around and grinned, "Is it a big show? This can only be seen on a full moon night. Fellow Daoist Gu is lucky to be able to see the true nature of this city right after arriving in this ancient world." Gu Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly: "It is indeed a big show. The Great Wei Dynasty should have many cities. Are all the cities like this?" "It's the same. When I first met you, I was like you. There are celestial beings in every city, and there are countless masters. The emperor of the Divine Dynasty is said to be even better than the celestial beings. But such a huge force still suffered this disaster." Mei Lisan sighed softly, and then said, "Let's go. There is only one day every month. Let's see if we can find some good things today." "Good stuff?" Gu Yuanqing asked in surprise. Mei Lisan smiled and said, "Of course, otherwise why would you come to this city? But Brother Gu, please remember, don't talk nonsense, just treat these people as normal people, don't reveal the secret, and don't drop this waist badge. Otherwise... you'd better run back to the inn room before you die, and use the inn's magic circle to return to your body." Gu Yuanqing turned to look at Mei Lisan: "Is it dangerous?" Mei Lisan took a step forward and said in a voice transmission: "If you follow the rules, there will be no danger at all. However, some people are always greedy." Gu Yuanqing stood on the roof but did not follow him down. Mei Lisan turned around and asked in surprise: "Daoyou, aren't you coming?" Gu Yuanqing said: "I'm new here, I want to see more before I say anything." Mei Lisan's expression seemed to change slightly, but it was immediately covered up by a smile. He said, "Then please do as you wish, fellow Taoist. It would be a pity to miss this opportunity." Gu Yuanqing smiled but didn't say anything. Mei Lisan was quite enthusiastic, but Gu Yuanqing originally just wanted to chat with him about the ancient world. He had just arrived in this world and didn't want to put himself in unknown danger. Perhaps he thought too much and was judging others with a petty mind, but he knew too little about the ancient world. It was always better to be cautious in everything. As for opportunities, there is no need to rush. Mei Lisan ignored Gu Yuanqing and strolled forward. He ignored all the strange sights on the street and occasionally stopped to talk to the bloody vendor next to him. Gu Yuanqing stood on the roof, looked around, and used the Dongxu Tianpu. The power of Dongxu Tiantong was also suppressed in this world. The suppression was even stronger inside the ancient city, but Gu Yuanqing was still able to see things within a radius of a hundred miles. However, many houses are protected by magic arrays, making them difficult to see through. Gu Yuanqing saw quite a few cultivators from outside. During the day, these cultivators were hidden in the crowd and could not be seen at all, but at this time they were particularly conspicuous.
Like Mei Lisan, they all walked through the streets and alleys and various shops, as if searching for something. Suddenly, one of the young men in a dark blue robe's eyes lit up, and he squatted in front of a small stall to bargain. Gu Yuanqing looked over there and saw that it was a pottery jar. I didn't notice it at first glance, but after a closer look, I found that this artifact was clearly different from the ones next to it, and there was a hint of obscure aura lingering around it. The man spent seven ancient green coins to buy it, and he seemed very satisfied. Suddenly, he seemed to sense Gu Yuanqing's gaze, and turned his head abruptly. His voice came to Gu Yuanqing's ears from more than ten miles away, and he said in a cold tone: "This Taoist friend is spying on Yu, do you want to die?" Gu Yuanqing smiled calmly and looked away. He didn't care about the threat. Based on his breath sensing, he knew that this person was also in the Void Sky Realm and could not pose a threat to him. Although his virtual world was only initially perfected, it contained thousands of principles, far beyond the level that should be in this realm. In addition, he had initially mastered the rhythm of space, had one foot halfway into the realm of heaven, and had even fought with heavenly beings many times. His cultivation was said to be at the initial stage of Xutian, but he was not afraid of anything unless it was someone at the peak of Xutian, and the battle at the Heavenly Ladder had proven that. After all these years, he has reached the 28th step of the ladder to heaven. And this is the reason why he dares to step into the ancient world and explore it. Yu Yun'an also withdrew his gaze and snorted. "Senior Brother Yu, what's wrong?" asked a veiled woman in a white dress next to him. "It's nothing. I don't know where this cultivator came from. He doesn't know the rules. If he wasn't in this city, he would definitely be taught a lesson." Yu Yun'an smiled calmly, put the bought pottery jar into the storage bag, and adjusted his cuffs. On the cuffs was a cloud-patterned sleeve sword belonging to the Shanyang Sect. The woman laughed and said, "He must be a cultivator from some small world. A cultivator from Xutian can be the ancestor of a sect, and he has no respect for others even after entering an ancient world." Yu Yun'an smiled and said, "Forget it, Junior Sister Qin, we won't talk about him anymore. The magic weapon shop is just ahead. There's a magic weapon in it that seems to have some flavor. I'm not sure whether to buy it or not. Today is a full moon, and the yin energy is strong. Can you help me take a look?" …… In a blink of an eye, Gu Yuanqing saw an old man raising his head and walking around a big tree for a few circles. The tree was full of thumb-sized red fruits, and many of them had fallen on the ground. Suddenly he jumped up and picked a thumb-sized red fruit from the tree with a smile on his face. Gu Yuanqing sensed it and found that this small red fruit was indeed different from the other fruits. He was thoughtful and vaguely realized something. Seeing so many monks wandering around the city, Gu Yuanqing finally felt relieved. He stepped down onto the street and wandered around the city, focusing his attention on the things around him, because even though he was not afraid of these people, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he was staring at them. These people now clearly look like they did when they died tragically. No one knows what kind of powerful force has kept them in this world, clouding their consciousness and making them think they are still alive. As he walked in it, Gu Yuanqing gradually got used to it and stopped thinking about it. No matter what the reason was, anyone who could achieve this level was beyond his reach at the moment. He walked through the streets and alleys, occasionally looking into street shops. Suddenly he found a piece of cake in a street cake shop that was different. His mind touched it and suddenly a look of surprise flashed across his face. "This is... the breath of the underworld, similar to the ancient mirror in my hand. The ancient world may really be related to the underworld." Seeing the looks of the people around him, Gu Yuanqing couldn't help but think so. Suddenly, Gu Yuanqing felt a familiar breath. He turned around and saw a man and a woman coming together. It was the man whose eyes had made contact with his before. This person obviously saw him as well.
He suddenly smiled at Gu Yuanqing and said, "My fellow Taoist, why are you looking at these people like that? Do you think they are all dead?" As soon as the words came out, Gu Yuanqing suddenly felt that the noisy streets around him suddenly became quiet. Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at them. As soon as he finished speaking, a breath of underworld rose up and enveloped the man and woman. In the eyes of the people around him, he seemed to have disappeared, and everyone's eyes fell on Gu Yuanqing. "I'll teach you a lesson. Don't look at things you shouldn't look at in the future." The man said softly with a smile on his face. (End of this chapter)
