Chapter 293

The bone boat went down the river, and along the way, there were skeletons crawling out of the river. Looking around, the entire riverbed was filled with these white and miserable bones.

Fortunately, the strength of the skeletons in the river is not too strong, and the defensive formation on the bone ship can block their attacks, so they will not be in a hurry.

The skeletons attacked with perseverance, and Ning Yuzhou needed to reinforce the defensive formation from time to time.

After traveling for about several hours, the boat finally stopped at a pier.

The full moon is still high in the sky, and there is no sign of falling west.

In the moonlight, they saw the situation on the pier. It was still a simple pier made of bones. There were several skeleton soldiers guarding the pier with bone guns. They stood there quietly, with dark eye sockets, without any breath of life, as if they were just bones.

The four jumped off the bone boat, and Ning Yuzhou put away the bone boat.

When they stood on the pier, the black eye holes of the skeleton soldiers lit up with blood red light, and they moved in an instant. They pointed their bone guns at them neatly and uniformly, and the two rows of teeth snapped together and made a gurgling sound. As if speaking to them.

Unfortunately, no one present could understand what they meant.

The four remained silent and did not act rashly.

Soon after, the skeleton soldiers put away their bone guns and returned to the guard post. The bloody red light in their eye sockets quickly disappeared, and they turned into a lifeless skeleton again.

Although the four of them were puzzled, they knew that these skeleton soldiers had no intention of attacking.

Are the skeletons in the river different from the skeletons on the land?

After thinking about it, they turned their heads and glanced at the river surface, and found that the skeletons in the river had disappeared, as if they had sunk to the bottom of the river, and the river surface had returned to calm, only a pale full moon reflected faintly on the river surface.

Wen Qiao and the others took a tentative step forward, saying that the skeleton soldiers didn't respond, so they passed over them and left.

Until they left the dock, nothing happened, nor was it stopped by the skeleton soldiers.

"What's going on?" Pei Qiyu asked in a low voice, "Their behavior just now was supposed to be a routine check?"

It was as if there was a ruler in this place. These skeleton soldiers were stationed on the pier. As long as someone came ashore, they would routinely come over to check, and if they found that there was no problem, they would let them leave.

Ning Yuzhou looked ahead and suddenly said, "Look, there is a bone car there."

Others turned their heads to look, only not far from the pier, there was a road paved with bones, and a car was parked on the side of the road.

The shape of this car has the characteristics of returning to the bone town. It is also made of bones. The puller turned out to be a monster - a monster with only bones.

There was a miserable white skeleton sitting on the cab. As they approached, the skeleton's eyes lit up with red light and his teeth rattled, as if asking them if they got in the car.

The four of them didn't say much and got into the carriage.

Da Da Da sounded, and the bone car was running on the bone road.

On both sides of the bone road is a desolate mountain, rolling hills, gray-brown, and occasionally you can see some bones that are half-covered in the soil. Most of those bones are half-corrupted and look very brittle, as if the wind blows. will turn into powder.

Looking further ahead, it is the bone road winding through the mountains, with no end in sight.

"Where is it going to take us?" Su Molan asked worriedly.

"It's a pity that we don't understand its words." Wen Qiao said with a pity that if he could communicate with these skeletons, it would save a lot of trouble.

Pei Qiyu felt that Wen Qiao's words were simply whimsical. How could a person communicate with a skeleton? After all, these skeletons are actually another species, and they are obviously dead people, but they can survive in the form of skeletons.

Pleiades and Wen Gungun were still tightly clinging to Wen Qiao's body. This place was too weird, and every animal and weapon was a little scared.

Pleiades said tremblingly: "Sister Wen, will it send us to a place where there are many skeletons? Will those skeletons attack us like the skeletons in the river?"

I didn't know that its words had just fallen, and the driving skeleton turned his head to look at it, the blood-red light in his eyes flickered slightly, his teeth snapped together, and he made a gurgling sound.

The four were silent at the same time.

Pleiades was even more afraid, "Does it, does it actually understand our words?"

This reaction, it is obvious that he understood, and then turned his head and said something to them, mostly to defend himself or something.

The four did not answer Pleiades, but just looked at the skeleton, its teeth clucked for a while, turned its head again, and continued driving.

However, due to its reaction, Pleiades didn't dare to speak, and stared at the surroundings cautiously. This timid appearance made people speechless.

Pei Qiyu said, "Aren't you a divine weapon? Why are you still afraid?"

"Who said that divine tools don't need to be afraid?" Pleiades retorted him, being extraordinarily straightforward, "Artifact spirits also have emotions and desires, and they are also greedy for life and fear of death. This place is so strange and strange, I'm afraid it's not normal?"

Su Molan hurriedly said, "It's okay, we're all together, don't be afraid."

Su Xing snorted at Pei Qiyu, flew to Su Molan, put his arms around her shoulder and said, "Lanlan is the best, the devil is not good at all..."

Pei Qiyu sneered, he really didn't need a stinky artifact to comment.

While speaking, the speed of the bone car suddenly slowed down.

Everyone looked up and found a city at the end of the bone road. The city wall is extremely high, still made of white bones. There are three striking blood-red characters on the city wall: Dugu Palace.

It's obviously incomprehensible words, but as long as you see it, you will understand its meaning.

Pei Qiyu's reaction was very fast, "Dugu Mansion? Could it be that the Thirteen Mansions of Withered Bones mean that this place consists of the Thirteen Mansions?"

Therefore, they made a mistake and came to Dugu Mansion in the Thirteen Withered Bones Mansion.

The bone cart stopped in front of the city gate, and the driving skeleton jumped off the hull and signaled them to get off.

The four of them got out of the car in sequence, and after they had settled down, they were about to walk towards the gate of the city when suddenly the skeleton stretched out a white and miserable bone hand to block their way. sounded.

The four of them were a little inexplicable at first, but they quickly understood what it meant.

This is for the fare.

"Is Lingshi okay?" Su Molan asked tangled. They didn't expect that they would have to pay for a car in this place.

Pei Qiyu took out a piece of spiritual stone and handed it to the skeleton, but it waved his hand, indicating that he would not accept this thing, and giggled at them.

Then Pei Qiyu took out spiritual pills, spiritual tools, talismans and other things, which were all valuable in the eyes of cultivators, but the skeleton waved his hands and did not accept it.

Pei Qiyu frowned, "You don't want any of these, so what do you accept?" As soon as he finished asking, he realized that he had asked a stupid question.

Maybe it was because they thought they were going to ride in an overlord car, the skeleton pointed at them with one hand and cursed with his hands on his hips.

Although don't understand it, it's quite unpleasant to be scolded by someone's nose.

In particular, there were many skeletons around who were about to enter the city, and they all stopped to watch the people who were being scolded in the overlord's car to repair. This scene was really embarrassing.

Wen Qiao quickly reached out to stop it, saying that they were not going to take the Bawang car, but were looking for a fare suitable for it.

She took it out of the storage bag, took out a food box, and handed it over, "Can this pay for the fare?"

Skull reached out and took it. After it opened the food box, it saw the food and wine in the food box. It was finally satisfied, put it away, and drove away.

Su Molan and Pei Qiyu were a little stunned, and couldn't help but ask Wen Qiao, "These skeletons are not human, what does it want for the food and drink?"

"The wine and food are from Huangu Town, the ones we packed away in the restaurant last time." Wen Qiao replied, "Since this place is inextricably related to Huangu Town, I think things from Huangu Town are inextricably linked. It should work here, so I gave it."

It turned out that the things from Huanguzhen really worked.

Ning Yuzhou looked at the bone car that left, and said thoughtfully, "Aunt Hua asked us not to eat any food in Huangu Town. It seems to have something to do with this place."

"If you can't eat it, you can't be confused with the Thirteenth House of Withered Bones, right?" Su Xing asked in a low voice, looking very worried.

"It's also possible." Pei Qiyu looked at it maliciously, "I still have a box of wine and food packaged from Huangu Town, do you want to eat it?"

Pleiades glared at him, thinking that this Demon Seed is so annoying, he always wants to trick it!

After settling the fare, they looked at Dugu Mansion.

"You have to pay for the car, but you also have to pay for entering the city, right?" Su Molan said with some confusion, "Do you still use the wine and food in Huangu Town?"

The amount of food and drink was limited. They also ordered it when they went to the restaurant to inquire about news. Under the influence of Wen Qiao, they did not throw it away, but packed it away and threw it in a storage bag.

Ning Yuzhou said, "Look at those skeletons who entered the city."

Everyone looked at the skeletons lining up to enter the city. These skeletons were like ordinary civilians, lining up to enter the city safely.

There were tall skeleton soldiers guarding outside the city gate. Each skeleton soldier held a bone gun. The blood-red light in their eye sockets was obviously stronger and stronger than that of the surrounding skeletons.

When they came here, they vaguely understood that the strength of these skeletons was related to the bloody red light in their eye sockets. The more bloody light, the stronger the strength of the skeletons. There is no doubt that the blood-red light in the eyes of these skeleton soldiers defending the city is the strongest among the skeletons they have encountered, and their strength should also be the strongest.

Every skeleton lining up to enter the city will tear off a bone from his body and give it to the soldiers guarding the city. Some are a little finger bone, some are a toe bone, or a rib...

Wen Qiao and several others looked a little dumb.

"Husband, don't we have to hand over a bone to enter the city?" Wen Qiao frowned.

Su Molan and Pei Qiyu both felt uncomfortable and panicked. They were not skeletons. Their flesh and blood had disappeared, and only a pile of bones remained. Ripping off a bone was nothing. Moreover, they really don't want to rip off their own bones for the city fee, which is too weird.

Ning Yuzhou said, "Otherwise, let's use other bones instead." After speaking, he turned his hand, and several bones appeared in his hand.

Wen Qiao and several people recognized that these were clearly demon bones, which were the leftovers he used to refine the bone ship.

"Okay, I'll try it out."

Without saying a word, Pei Qiyu took out a bone and ran over to line up.

Su Molan was a little worried that the skeleton soldiers would stop him, and stared at him tightly.

The skeletons in front of Pei Qiyu moved forward, and when they reached Pei Qiyu soon, Su Molan and Wen Qiao almost held their breaths and prepared to fight.

Pei Qiyu gave the demon bone in his hand to the skeleton soldier.

The skeleton soldier picked up the demon bone, looked at Pei Qiyu with blood-red eyes, and the two rows of teeth made a rattling sound.

Pei Qiyu looked calm as they saw it.

The giggle sounded for a while, but the soldier still accepted the demon bone and let Pei Qiyu pass by.

"Oh, that's ok." Su Molan said happily.

After discovering that demon bones are also possible, Ning Yuzhou and the three each held a demon bone and went to line up. When they were lined up, the teeth of the skeleton soldier who took over the demon bones clucked again, and Wen Qiao felt tired after hearing it.

Fortunately, they passed smoothly.

The four walked into Dugu Mansion, but what they saw was not the city, but an endless mountain of bones. The bone mountain formed by the white and miserable bones stretches as far as the eye can see, as if this is a world formed by various kinds of bones.

The four of them stood there dumbfounded.

Then they saw a few skeleton soldiers who came in carrying the entry fee bones. The skeleton soldiers didn't even look at them, walked to a bone mountain, and dumped the pile of bones on the bone mountain with a bang. When the pouring was over, a skeleton soldier bent over to pick up some bones, and then casually threw them farther outside the bone mountain.

The four of them were keenly aware that four of those bones were the city fee they had just paid—the demon bones.

There is an inexplicable illusion of being despised by skeletons.

"Looking at these bones, the quality is not good, so I can't be a member of the bone mountain." Pei Qiyu said pretendingly.

Su Molan looked at him and hesitated.

Wen Qiao agreed: "Young Master Pei is right, you look at the bones in the distance, and the quality is really not very good." The demon bones they handed in just now were actually only the bones of the fifth or sixth-order monsters, and the quality is really not good. Superior.

Su Molan was speechless. How could these two see that the quality of these bones was not good? Obviously all bones.

Ning Yuzhou smiled and said, "Let's go in and have a look. There should be something we need in this Dugu Mansion."

What they need is naturally a fairy!

A group of people suddenly became energetic, their eyes fell on the bone mountain again, and at the same time they also paid attention to the skeletons that entered the Dugu mansion.

I saw that some of these skeletons climbed directly up the Bone Mountain, trekking to the distance, and some entered some caves in the Bone Mountain. But what caught their attention the most was the tall bone mountain that was closest to the city gate. There was a cave dozens of feet high in the belly of the bone mountain, and many skeletons went there.

"Let's go take a look." Ning Yuzhou said.

The others naturally had no objection, so they walked towards the cave.

Standing in front of the cave, Wen Qiao looked inside and found that it was very dark, probably because the moon didn't shine in the cave. There are many skeletons in the cave, but because the cave is very wide, it is not crowded.

The four walked in together with the surrounding skeletons.

The light is getting darker and darker, but the impact is not big. In addition to the fact that practitioners can see in the dark, it is also because of the bloody red light in the eye sockets of the surrounding bone monsters, so many skeletons gather together, and the red light is also bright. form a faint light source.

Along the way, they finally understood where the cave was.

This is a city where skeletons live. There are many bone houses. The appearance of these bone houses is very similar to Huangu Town. Anyway, in the eyes of normal people, they are all houses made of bones, and there is no difference.

Skeletons are like normal humans. They inhabit and live here. They even fight each other without a word, and the bones are scattered. It takes some time to restore the bones. Wen Qiao and the others noticed that as long as the bloody red light in the eyes of these skeletons is not extinguished, they will not die, and the bones can be reassembled when they are scattered.

They walked among these skeletons, as if they were one of them. The concept of the living and the dead was very weak, and no skeletons regarded them as aliens. Wen Qiao suspected that the five senses of these skeletons had degenerated, and they did not realize that they were related to them. are different.

So fine.

The four of them didn't waste time. After learning about the situation here, they accelerated their pace.

They passed through the long bone hole, and when the moonlight reappeared, they had already walked out of the long bone hole like a tunnel, and there was still a bone mountain in front of them.

The four of them took out flying swords and flew on the bone mountain.
