    Chapter 88 Human World (4)

    If all the weirdness in Barrier City is based on "nightmare", then things will be simple and clear.

    Xie Shiyi turned his head and looked at the rain outside. He was recuperating his body. The aura of frost and snow surrounded him, and he felt strangely separated from the foggy environment around him.

    Xie Shiyi said: "The Qin family came here many years ago, and the demon species I met back then was smuggled down from Zijin Continent."

    Yan Qing nodded: "If you want to investigate clearly, you must enter the City Lord's Mansion. But the City Lord's Mansion is closed, and all matters in the barrier city are handled by Su Qu. It is very difficult." Yan Qing muttered: "If I had known this, we would haveWe should pretend to be two women living in a foreign land. With your appearance and my appearance, wouldn’t it be easy to get in?”

    Xie Shiyi: "..."

    Xie Shiyi cut the ice and broke the jade and said: "I don't want it."

    Yan Qing laughed muffledly for a long time and then said: "Why are you so shy? I pretended to be the bride in Heishuize. Oh, the bride, it would be easier to be robbed into the city lord's palace by pretending to be a bride." Yan Qing thought more and more.Wan sighed: "It's a pity that we have already entered. The barrier city is wide and strict in entry and exit. If I turn into a girl and suddenly appear on the street, it will definitely arouse suspicion. Is there any other way to get close to the city lord?" Barrier cities no matter how big or small they are.Small matters are now handed over to Su Qu. Very few people can enter the city lord's palace. The wall encloses one-fifth of the land in the barrier city and separates the two worlds.

    Yan Qing clicked his fingers on the table. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he said meaningfully: "I know, I can sneak into the clan house."

    Xie Shiyi glanced at him.

    Yan Qing: "I took a look when I was queuing up at the Clan Mansion. Except for the guards, everyone inside was a woman. Those women from Zhancheng who had lost the ability to have children are now responsible for delivering babies at the Clan Mansion. The Clan Mansion directlyIt's connected to the City Lord's Mansion, if I sneak in, I might even see the so-called holy water!"

    After hearing what he said, Xie Shiyi nodded and said coldly: "You have played the role of a bride, a beggar, and a madman, and now you plan to help deliver babies?"

    Yan Qing obviously felt that the plan was feasible, and smiled with crooked eyes: "Yes, you said it as if you had never pretended to be a beggar. You may not believe it, but the first thing I did after I was reborn was to deliver a baby." Although the baby was deliveredIt's such a stupid thing as Wuzhi.

    "Oh." Xie Shiyi looked at him for a while and said, "Yan Qing, you really showed your talents in Shifang City back then."

    Yan Qing pretended not to hear his objection and sarcasm, and happily stretched out his hand and said, "Let's not talk about it anymore. You were the one who felt my pulse before, now I'll take a look for you."

    Xie Shiyi could only heal his injuries on his own, but seeing Yan Qing's enthusiastic expression, he still lowered his eyes and stretched out his hand.His wrists were hanging on the chessboard, and his snow clothes covered the criss-crossed black and white chess pieces.As soon as Yan Qing's fingers touched his wrist bone, he was immediately frozen by the dissipated blue spiritual power.

    It was so cold, it felt like he was touching a piece of ice.

    Yan Qing didn't even check the person's pulse. He fumbled around Xie Shiyi's wrist for a long time without any clue.Xie Shiyi felt impatient, so she grabbed his hand with her other hand, pressed it on a certain meridian, and said, "If you gather spiritual power from here, you can explore my Dantian."

    Yan Qing was stunned for a moment, then said directly after hearing this: "Dantian? Isn't your most serious problem right now Liuli heart? Is there any way to see the current state of your heart?"

    Xie Shiyi said with a half-smile, "Yes."

    Yan Qing: "Where? I'll try. Is it troublesome?"

    Xie Shiyi said coolly: "It's not troublesome, just use your soul thread to cut your heart."

    Yan Qing: "..."

    Xie Shiyi said: "Last time you gave me a nightmare and made me blind for three days. Now you are treating me and planning to disembowel me. Do you really want to go to the clan house to deliver the baby?"

    Yan Qing was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I must be doing odd jobs outside when I go in."

    Even if those women gave birth to nightmares and evil things, even if the entire barrier city was in a state of "madness" and it was unclear whether they were humans or ghosts, Yan Qing did not intend to let these people become victims and experimental subjects..

    He and Xie Shiyi had been arranged in the guest room of the Su Mansion for some time. As Mrs. Su's delivery date was getting closer, the entire Su Mansion became busy.

    It's been half a month since Su Qu entered the city lord's mansion.

    It was a sunny day again in Barrier City, and Yan Qing once again stood in the long alley outside the clan's mansion. After trying countless methods to get in, Yan Qing had no choice but to get wise.

    "Brother, my wife is pregnant and urgently needs a pair of anti-fetal medicine."

    The guard almost looked familiar to him: "You're a foreigner, and you've only been here a few days and you already have a wife?"

    Yan Qing said, "Look at me, I'm so handsome. Is it strange that I have a wife?"

    Guard: "..." Zhengcheng strictly controls delivery and leaving the city, and there are not many restrictions on things like taking medicine, especially anti-fetal medicine, which is basically given to anyone who requests it.

    The guard let Yan Qing in, but there were no sentries at every step and there were spies everywhere, basically eliminating the possibility of him causing trouble.

    After Yan Qing entered the pharmacy, he first smelled a strong smell of herbal medicine. He knew all kinds of spiritual herbs and celestial beings in the sky, and he could guess something was wrong just by feeling.

    "Get him a pair of anti-fetal pills," the guard said coldly.Standing in front of the pharmacy is a round-faced young man, handsome, elegant, upright, but his fox eyes look a bit out of place.He was holding a pen in one hand and a book in the other hand, writing the names of the herbs on the book.

    "Okay, but the medicine will have to wait a while."

    The guard nodded.

    After the young man finished writing, he looked up and saw Yan Qing, stunned for a moment: "Hey, an outsider."

    Yan Qing smiled: "Yeah."

    The young man was full of enthusiasm: "Come on, come on, come with me. The powder of Shuminghua is more difficult to grind. Come over and help me."

    Yan Qing did not shirk, he followed the young man to the backyard.Walking on the cloister.

    Yan Qing asked bluntly: "What's your name?"

    The young man laughed: "Huh? Why did you ask the question I wanted to ask you in advance?" But he still said optimistically and freely: "My name is Jin Ming."

    Yan Qing: "Jin Ming? What a good name. My name is Yan Qing."

    Jin Ming's eyes were filled with envy: "It's been a long time since there's been a new person in Zhancheng. You're really awesome for hooking up with a girl from Zhancheng so quickly."

    Yan Qing smiled implicitly: "Good luck, good luck."

    Jin Ming said sourly: "You are indeed lucky. If it were not for that girl, you would not survive here for long. But you must be careful when you take the girl from Zhancheng. Don't mess with her."

    Yan Qing was stunned: "Ah, why?"

    Jin Ming said: "The only people whose lives are valuable in Zhengcheng are women. As for men, even if you are killed alive by your wife, no one will seek justice for you. But when your wife dies, you must be buried with her. The entire Zhancheng,There is only one crime for a woman, and that is to kill her unborn child without permission."

    Yan Qing took a breath of cold air.

    Jin Ming sighed: "I have been in Zhancheng for ten years, why am I not as lucky as you."

    Yan Qing was stunned: "Are you also an outsider?"

    Jin Mingdao: "That's right. I have been studying medicine and knowing some herbal medicine for generations, so I survived here."

    Yan Qing was confused: "Then if he doesn't have any skills and can't marry a girl from Zhancheng, then where will a man usually go?"

    Jin Ming waved his hand and said: "It will disappear. Anyway, I saw so many strange faces, and none of them stayed for more than three months."

    The clan mansion occupies a large area.

    Yan Qing went to the back mountain and saw bunches of herbs hanging on the grass.

    Sunny days are rare in Zhancheng, so when we finally get the chance, the entire hillside is covered with herbs.The drug stores are one after another. Jin Ming said: "This is for abortion, and this is for recuperation. As for this, hehe, you will need it."

    Yan Qing understood after hearing his vulgar smile, and said at a loss for words: "This can't be the raw material of the aphrodisiac pill, right?"

    Jin Ming clapped his hands: "Smart!"

    Yan Qing twitched the corner of his mouth. He walked over and saw a large red flower. He bent down and looked at the red flower shaped like a pea pod, and lightly crushed it with his fingers to soak in some flower juice.

    Jin Ming said: "In addition to this, there are rosemary flowers here, which can be made into incense candles to light in your bridal chamber at night."

    Yan Qing sighed quietly: "This barrier city is really not a serious city..."

    Jin Ming showed two dimples in the sun: "You have to think on the bright side. Although this city is not serious, it is safe here."

    He raised his head, ran his fingers over the rows of dried bluebells, and said softly: "At least there are no demons here, and there are no beasts like those in Xianrentai who confuse right and wrong."

    After speaking, he looked at Yan Qing seriously.

    "Brother Yan, do you want to talk?"

    Yan Qing stared at him without blinking and smiled slowly: "Let's chat!"

    Yan Qing followed him into a wooden house with something to make medicine. Jin Ming sat on the wooden chair on the other side, snorted and said sarcastically: "Sure enough, those who end up in the walled city are all those who are trapped in the Immortal Platform."Forced with no way out.”

    Yan Qing's expression remained unchanged as he said: "Barrier City has a bad reputation. If there is really no place to go, who would be willing to take risks here."

    Jin Ming smiled bitterly and said: "There was no prison cell in the Chu Kingdom a hundred years ago. All demon species were directly executed at the Immortal Terrace in the imperial capital. Within a hundred years, there was suddenly an addition of this thing - a prison cell, a prison cell! It's called a 'confinement room'.I think it’s a shelter!”

    Jin Ming punched the table with his fist, and his facial features were distorted. He gritted his teeth and said: "That beast raped and killed my sister, cooked and ate my parents. After his demonic body was exposed, he was put into a prison cell by the government and told to wait for the Immortal Platform.Trial - When the results came out, my mouth was full of oil and I actually gained weight."

    "What is the final judgment? Xianrentai said he was not a demon and said my family was a slanderer! Put my sister in jail and expel me from the city." Jin Ming clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were blood red, and finally saidHe slowly opened his mouth and said, "I will make sure that family pays for their debt with blood."

    This was not the first time Yan Qing heard about the demon species, so he remained silent.

    Jin Ming completely tore off the mask and said coldly, "I've been staring at you for a long time."

    Yan Qing: "Huh?"

    Jin Mingdao: "I have been watching you since you entered Barrier City. I know that you are the one who gave Mrs. Su the longevity lock. Mrs. Su is the biggest variable in Barrier City in these years, and it is also my only chance..Su Qu loves her a lot. If I want to enter the city lord’s mansion as a guest, I must use her power.”

    Yan Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you want to use her power for?"

    Jin Ming said word by word: "I want to tell the gods in heaven about my family's grievances!"

    Yan Qing: "..."

    Yan Qing almost failed to hold the stone for making the medicine. He felt as if he had seen a ghost and said in disbelief: "A god in the heavens."

    Jin Ming's eyes were red and he said: "Yes, all the immortals in the human world have colluded with the government. Now only the immortals in heaven can wash away the grievances of my sister and me."

    Yan Qing frowned and thought, it depends on whether you meet an immortal from the Shangzhongtian side.

    Jin Ming said: "Every year at the end of March, every household is locked in their homes. At three o'clock in the morning, the city gates are opened, and the city lord's palace is opened to welcome a group of immortals. The entire barrier city knows about this, and everyone claims to be the god.The city is filled with pride."

    Yan Qing was silent for a moment and said, "What do you want me to do?"

    Jin Ming smiled bitterly and took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve: "I want you to put this thing into Mrs. Su's food. I don't want to harm her... This is a poison passed down from the ancestors of my Jin family.Only I can figure it out. I just want to be Mrs. Su's 'saviour'."

    Before Yan Qing could say anything, Jin Ming raised his head, his eyes red, but said firmly: "You must help me, if you want to live! In March

    The end is coming soon, I don't have much time, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you so quickly without knowing your details."

    "..."

    Yan Qing suddenly felt that this man was a little out of his mind.

    He reached out, took hold of the bottle, and whispered, "I can help you, but you have to help me too."

    Jin Ming: "What do you want me to do?"

    Yan Qing said: "I want you to find a way for me to see for myself how people in the clan's mansion 'deliver babies.'"

    His only purpose was to sneak into the clan house.Jin Ming had worked in the clan house for ten years and was quite capable. He really made Yan Qing see this scene.

    But it's not a real person, it's a scarecrow, a place where newcomers are trained in the clan mansion.

    Jin Ming said: "Babies born in Zhangcheng are often very talented and will be taken to heaven as soon as they are born. However, it is difficult for women in Zhangcheng to give birth to a live fetus. Most of the time, the pregnancy lasts two months and three months.The fetus dies after the first month. And for the health of the mother, the 'child' needs to be taken out."

    Jin Ming said: "The women in Zhancheng are miserable, and so are the men..." He was silent for a moment, and then said: "That aphrodisiac is more like a poison. Men rarely live past the age of thirty-five."

    Jin Ming, like the people in the city, has no regrets at all: "Maybe this is the price of giving birth to a genius."

    There was a roar, and the gloomy sky was covered with dark clouds again, and then the green rain spread over the entire city, washing away all the groans, cries, and blood.

    Yan Qing stretched out her hand to catch the rain.

    Seeing now, he completely understood the Qin family's plan of being here for hundreds of years.

    Where did this rain come from?

    He had thought about many reasons before, why he chose Barrier City, and now he had a vague guess.Although the passage to heaven and earth is in Liuxianzhou.

    But the one above the Barrier City should be Zijin Continent—both of them are on the verge of the Sea of Desolation.

    The Demon God was seriously injured by the Demon-Slaying Formation in Nanze Prefecture, but the Demon God really disappeared in the Cangmanhai Sea.The evil thoughts of gods that float in the air, harm the Nine Heavens for thousands of years, are invisible and untouchable, and their real place of emanation is the Cangwu Sea.

    If the rain falling from the sky in Zhancheng comes from Cangmanhai, then everything will be explained.

    The Qin family has spent a hundred years soaking in the sea water, generation after generation, to raise the best container for condensing evil thoughts... the women of the barrier city.

    There is no need for a live fetus at all. Every stillborn fetus also contains a nightmare. After the 'delivery', it is neatly placed in a clean bottle.
