Chapter 22 Demon Mana Power (Please recommend)
Several hours later.
Fang Xi returned to Baiyun martial arts hall.
"Brother, how are you doing?"
Liu Taotao and Wu Xuan immediately surrounded him.
They were also one of the inner disciples who stayed firmly during the previous riots in the martial arts hall.
Fang Xi shook her head: "Taking advantage of the opportunity of those strange people returning to their lair, I went to check the city gate... The outside of the city has been shrouded in a layer of black mist, and if you want to pass through, you will be hindered by a layer of strange force. I'm afraid, Black Rock City is really isolated from the inside and outside."
Tang Xuan was extremely desperate.
Fang Xi looked at the towering treetops in the center of the city, thoughtfully: "I suggest...we first move to the edge of Black Rock City, close to the city wall, and build a stronghold before we talk..."
"Why?"
The person who asked the question was Mu Mimiao. After she sent her father into the room to rest, she had been silent for a long time, and finally spoke at this time.
"Because that demon tree is still growing taller..."
Fang Xi explained: "The living creatures shrouded under the canopy will definitely be harassed by those hanging air roots, which must be very dangerous..."
In his heart, there is still a guess that has not been uttered.
That is, the demon tree will continue to grow taller.
Based on this situation, one day it will be as high as a cloud, and then the canopy will replace the sky, covering the entire Black Rock City!
At that time, it will be the end of the entire Black Rock City!
'Of course, it is not ruled out that this demon tree is rational, and it takes the initiative to raise some humans in captivity and give it regular enjoyment...'
‘Magic… What an interesting creature! According to what Mu Canglong said, is this means of blockade the 'Demon Realm'? It does have the taste of a prototype formation. '
"Ahem!"
Mu Canglong came out at some point, coughed a few times, and said: "Fang Xi is right, let's do as he said... Also, the martial arts hall is relocated, and other things can be discarded. We only need food and water..."
"Daddy, your body?" Mu Mimiao looked at her father worriedly.
Fang Xi could also notice that the tadpole-shaped dark lines on Mu Canglong's body spread more, and they had already climbed to the chin.
"It's useless, it's poison, and it's also a 'curse'!"
Mu Canglong replied with a wry smile.
"May I ask Master, what is a 'curse'?" Fang Xi became interested.
"The so-called monsters, monsters just look weirder, stronger, or have some strange abilities..." Mu Canglong waved his hand: "But demons are completely different, especially the 'curse'! This is a unique power of demons. —Curse power! Its horror is far beyond the power of our warriors' blood, and even true strength and strength...so once it is touched, it is like a gangrene, and it will undoubtedly die..."
"I see." Fang Xi nodded, clasped her fists and said, "Master, I have to go home to deal with some business, so I can only meet up later."
At this time, the monsters outside were all hung on the canopy, making it extremely safe.
Some remaining disciples have already sneaked away a lot.
Fang Xi also solemnly bid farewell, because he is a fastidious person.
"That...Master, I also want to go home." Liu Taotao echoed timidly.
"Yeah." Mu Canglong nodded and did not stop him: "Remember, we will gather at the East City Gate later. Fang Xi's previous deduction is correct, the farther away from the body of the demon tree the better... Also, be careful of those demon servants , although they are only infected by the magic power of demons, they are not easy to deal with."
…
"Why did the promised world of enjoyment suddenly turn into a disaster-surviving world?"
Fang Xi was walking on the street, looking at the dilapidated shops, the broken corpses on the ground, and occasionally casting vigilant eyes from behind the windows, she couldn't help but be speechless: "It's the version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, the poisonous circle continues from the inside out." The diffuse kind of...'
Fortunately.
He could feel that as long as he wanted to, he could still return to the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm.
With this as his trump card, Fang Xi is actually not in a hurry.
He stopped and stopped all the way to his mansion.
The door shattered and fell to one side.
The corpses of several nurses were scattered in all directions, and some of them were still roaring.
"Sure enough..."
Fang Xi had expected this for a long time, her eyes flashed, and she walked into the inner house.
Several maids fell in a pool of blood, holding emerald leaves, pearls, gold jewelry and other belongings in their hands...
‘Hey, whenever he is in danger, he wants to steal the owner’s property and run away...’
He walked around and looked around, and basically confirmed that his home was also attacked by monsters, and the servants suffered heavy casualties.
Almost all the living ones ran away, and a lot of property was taken away.
‘Forget it, just treat it as severance pay. '
Fang Xi is quite open to this, since they are all external objects anyway.
The bedroom was also in a mess.
Facts have proved that the master's ban is almost like farting when it comes to the end.
Fang Xi didn't care about these things, she came to a rosewood cabinet carved with dragons and phoenixes, and knocked on the door of the cabinet.
"Ahhh!"
Amidst the screams, a petite figure rushed out, holding a pair of scissors in his hand, stabbing swiftly.
Snapped!
Fang Xi was speechless, slapped the scissors away, and slapped her: "Lily, wake up, it's me!"
Hiding in the cupboard is the maid Lily.
A bright red palm print quickly appeared on her cheek, which was in sharp contrast to her fair and delicate skin, but she seemed to have finally come to her senses, crying uncontrollably, and said: "There are... there are monsters... Sister Narcissus, Sister Yulan... all... all dead..."
"Where's Laurel?"
Fang Xi asked a question.
Lily shook her head: "I didn't see..."
Fang Xi recalled that along the way, if she didn't see Yue Gui's body, that was good news.
He stroked Lily's hair, feeling like stroking a cat: "Now that Black Rock City is over, I will give you two choices, the first one is to follow me, and the second one is that I will give you a hundred taels of gold, and then return You have a contract, you go by yourself, you choose one!"
Fang Xi looked around the bedroom, but there was nothing to take.
Gold and silver are like bricks and rubble in today's Black Rock City. It's better to go to the kitchen and move more bags of rice!
‘No, I can go to the world of cultivating immortals to buy rice from ordinary people, and I don’t have to move it…’
"I..." Lily's eyes were barely alive: "I'll go with the young master..."
"Very good!"
Fang Xi nodded, this is a smart little girl: "In this case, hurry up and tidy up, go to the kitchen and carry a bag of rice, come with me..."
…
East City Gate.
A dwelling built along the city wall.
Baiyun martial arts school chose this place to settle down, because it is already the edge of Black Rock City.
The small courtyard was already crowded with martial arts apprentices and their relatives.
In addition to Fang Xi bringing a maid, Liu Taotao and Tang Xuan also brought their parents over.
Even, even the second senior brother Wu Ji, at some point, brought a beautiful woman with him, who was said to be his wife, and occupied a room grandly.
Near the courtyard, there are still many forces in the city, most of whom are martial arts masters. They brought their apprentices, drove away the original house owners, and occupied the best land in this circle.
Now that the order in the city is broken, fists are the best voice!
Because of this, Mu Canglong had no choice but to drag his remnant body to make false claims with those martial arts masters.
Late at night.
Mu Canglong summoned several disciples who entered the room to discuss what he saw today.
"Ahem...According to what I heard, the demon tree can parasitize the body of humans and beasts, and it was chosen to descend in the government office from the very beginning. The prefect of the city and the high-ranking officials in the city basically died without a place to die..."
The lamp was like a bean, illuminating everyone's horrified and terrified faces. Mu Canglong's voice revealed helplessness: "Now... there are many martial arts forces living near the east gate, and the south gate is occupied by Yuanhe Mountain. I don't know the situation at the gate, I'm afraid it's a desperate situation, there are occasional sporadic news at the west gate, and a large number of refugees gather..."
"As for the monsters driven by the demon tree, they come out at night, and there are not many of them. As long as they are careful, they should be able to last for a while..."
Mu Piaomiao looked worried: "Daddy... the fresh water we store here can barely last for a month."
"One month?" Mu Canglong became depressed for no reason.
Actually, there are too many dead people in Black Rock City. As long as you are not afraid of danger and avoid the core area covered by trees and monsters, it is not difficult to go to the grain store in the residential area to search for supplies.
What is really difficult is confidence!
‘Actually, all high-level officials should know that they will definitely be abandoned by the Great Liang court…’
‘Holding together to keep warm now is just lingering. '
Fang Xi crossed her arms and folded her arms, leaning against the pillar, she already understood everything: 'The present persistence is just a very weak hope, I hope that this monster can leave after eating and drinking...'
‘But no one would have thought at first that this demon turned out to be a tree! Maybe they won’t leave. Even if they want to leave, it’s possible to wait until the canopy spreads to the entire sky and kill everyone with aerial roots...’
‘Of course, judging from the extent of the opponent’s expansion, this process is still several months to a year away...so the danger at the beginning is... other people! '
While Fang Xi was thinking, Mu Canglong's expression changed, he spit out a mouthful of black blood, and passed out.
"Daddy!"
Mu Piaomiao exclaimed, and hurried over to help her.
Ignoring the busy crowd, Fang Xi walked out of the room and looked at the gloomy sky.
Now that the strongest combat power of Baiyun Martial Arts has been damaged, I am afraid that it cannot be hidden from those who are interested, and the danger is only in the blink of an eye!
