I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 294: The dead city
On New Year's Eve this year, Kong Ning and the others spent time in Yuanzhou, a small town southwest of Dazhou.
Although Yuanzhou is the capital of a state, it is remote and closed, with short city walls and small urban areas.
Compared with the prosperity of the capital, this city of Yuanzhou can be described as dilapidated and decayed, and it is not much better than Shanlan County.
Most importantly, there are demons in the city.
The two demons stole the identities of the county magistrate and the county magistrate. They gathered many little demons in the yamen, and almost turned the entire Yuanzhou city into their kitchen. want.
When Kong Ning and the others arrived, the city of Yuanzhou was lifeless and the people were in panic and despair.
Young children, with tender skin and flesh, were eaten by demons seventeen years ago.
Those young people who used to be in the labor force, after more than ten years of torture, are either old or sick and disabled.
The city of Yuanzhou, which was originally a beautiful mountain and river, has become **** like a devil's cave.
Here, Cai Wei saw such a terrifying chaos for the first time.
Although along the way, I have seen many monsters and monsters, and mortals have died tragically. But the scenes in Yuanzhou City still made the little girl tremble.
The two demons headed by the city, the strongest are only Daoxing for more than 400 years, but they are only in the sky refining realm. With a brutal temperament and no long-term development plans, it is completely a waste of water and an unscrupulous scourge of this land.
Although the chief evil has only been in Taoism for more than 400 years, the entire yamen has only more than 70 little demons, but the murders they have committed and the tragic situations they have created are the ones that Kong Ning encountered in the year he left Hejian Mansion. The scariest.
A good yamen, **** and foul smelling everywhere, covered with all kinds of human organs, and piled with large and small skulls.
The moment Caiwei walked into the yamen, she vomited directly.
I can't stand such a huge shock scene.
Even Kong Ning frowned slightly.
This Yuanzhou City has a bit of a lion and camel mountain feel.
Ordinary mortals strayed into this place, fearing that their legs would be weak.
Once the demons, ghosts and monsters let go of their temperament to kill, and if they don't consider captivity and long-term development at all, their destructive power is amazing.
Even if it's just a group of little monsters, they can turn a city where more than 100,000 people live into a **** on earth.
Killing all the demons in the city, Kong Ning did not get the gratitude of the remaining 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled.
Since Kong Ning stepped into the city gate, started killing people, and entered the yamen all the way, these mortals just stared at Kong Ning numbly, doing their own things mechanically, and no one came out to cheer.
Even if the corpses of the demons were all piled up in front of the yamen and burned by Kong Ning, those mortals with numb eyes just watched silently for a while and then dispersed.
No one came to say thank you, no one cheered.
The demons who had oppressed them for more than ten years had all died, but these mortals were still numbly doing their own things according to the old rules and silently.
Continue to wait for one day to be selected, and then dragged into the yamen to be slaughtered...
"Mother, this Yuanzhou City is a bit scary," the urn whispered: "I have seen a peerless great demon swallowing 100,000 living beings in one bite before, and I have also seen the sky-high monster destroy a country's capital city with its palm. "
"But this is the first time I've seen a city that has been plagued by demons for more than ten years without anyone to take care of it."
"These mortals, it feels like they've all gone crazy."
The evaluation of the columbarium is extremely accurate.
Cai Wei looked at the lifeless city with a little heartache.
"Master, can you help them?" Caiwei looked at Kong Ning expectantly: "Use your mirror?"
Kong Ning's illusion can almost be confused with the real, even top cultivators, let alone ordinary mortals.
However, Kong Ningfa opened his eyes, looked at the mortals in the city, and slowly shook his head.
"It's useless, my mirror can make them forget the pain of the past ten years, but it can't revive their relatives."
"Once they wake up and regain their senses, they will definitely not be able to accept the situation at this time, and they will not be more mad...probably will directly seek death and use death to escape everything."
Kong Ning's answer made Caiwei open her mouth.
She subconsciously looked at the numb mortals in the city below, watching the dull and repetitive movements of those mortals, her eyes filled with grief.
"But if we leave, these people won't even be able to resist. Any little demon can continue to fish them!" Caiwei seemed to have seen such a tragic situation.
Kong Ning shook his head and said nothing.
The urn said: "Little girl, these people are actually dead... Although their bodies are still alive, their hearts are dead, and no one can save them."
The words of the urn made Caiwei tremble slightly and her eyes completely darkened.
This night, New Year's Eve, they spent the night on the city gate, but they didn't have any New Year's Eve festivities.
The city of Yuanzhou under the darkness of night is lifeless.
Mortals showered and changed clothes, held lanterns, walked out of their homes, and gathered in front of the yamen.
According to the rules of previous years, help the monsters to celebrate New Year's Eve, and by the way, wait for the monsters to play and choose people to kill.
But there are no monsters to slaughter them this year.
So these numb mortals all stood in front of the yamen with lanterns and blank faces, silent, like a group of sluggish sculptures, until after the third watch, they turned away one by one and returned home silently.
In the city gate tower, Cai Wei huddled in the warm quilt created by Kong Ning using illusions, and fell asleep.
From time to time, I have nightmares, my face is blue, my lips are trembling, and I don't know what I'm dreaming about.
Kong Ning was sitting on the tower of the city gate, watching from a distance that the mortals at the gate of the yamen gathered and dispersed one after another.
Until all the lights in Yuanzhou City went out, there was no response.
The urn jumped to his side, whispering.
"Brother, I probably understand why you want to change your ways and become a good person. It's really uncomfortable in such a world where demons are lawless."
"Even if it's a demon, not everyone has a tendency to abuse and kill."
The tragedy in Yuanzhou City was too bloody, and the numb and sluggish mortals made one’s back chill, so much so that the urn of this apparently unethical origin was uncomfortable~IndoMTL.com~ But both Kong Ning and the urn were uneasy. Clearly, what happened in Yuanzhou City was by no means the only case in the world.
Even if they go further west and leave the border of Zhou Kingdom, what they will see will definitely be more terrifying.
The capital of Dazhou is adjacent to the East China Sea, so when I came from the sea all the way to the capital, the scene I saw was not too tragic.
But since the capital left, all the way to the west, the farther away from the capital, the weaker the strength of the demons, but correspondingly, the more cruel, violent and lawless these demons.
Until now, when they came to Yuanzhou City, which was only two thousand miles away from the border and in the mountains, they finally saw the first city in their trip that had been brutally brutalized by demons for more than ten years.
At this moment, Kong Ning and the urn are clear.
In the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was indeed something that deterred the nearby demons. So that the closer you are to the capital, the more restrained the demons will be when they harm others...
