Chapter 159 Twisted Time and Space

From time to time, the cool wind blows in the empty dungeon. The closer it is to the Red Palace where the main salamb of the Fire City is located, the more obvious the chill will be. In fact, everyone feels this unusual magnetic field, just afraid of being regarded as an illusion caused by timidity and unwilling to say it.

Except for some of the cavalry soldiers who were left on the platform outside the entrance of the dungeon for treatment, all the rest arrived at the square in front of the Chiyan Palace. Under the order of Ouyang Xiao Leng, everyone came down from the camel beast one after another and observed everything around them.

The pale light illuminated the whole square and the Red Palace, which seemed to be the source of the chill they felt just now. As long as you stand in this square for a period of time, your body and mind will be occupied by all kinds of emotions, such as pain, fear, sadness, inexplicable grievances, resentment... These negative emotions are entangled together to form a huge whirlpool, constantly pulling everyone in the royal army standing here, trying to bring them to the disaster. The abyss of no return.

"I really don't like this place!" Ling Yu hugged his shoulder and said.

He has long felt that this place is no longer the dungeon he is familiar with. In the past, although it was full of drunkenness and feasts, those also made the small city that existed underground become warm, and now it is as cold as a grave.

"Me too!" Qianqi did not show his strength once, but did not hide his fear from his heart.

Ouyang Hongye sent a team of soldiers to check the situation around the Red Palace. As a result, it was learned that all the entrances of the whole palace had been closed and could not be opened. They had to stay in the square temporarily to find other ways to enter the palace, but obviously no one likes to stay here for even a little longer.

Because the longer you stay here, the chill around your body becomes more and more intense, and you can even see the white haze coming out of your mouth. Some translucent shadows appear faintly in the air. At first, they only have blurred outlines, but gradually become clearer and clearer. It can be seen that there are men and women, old and young. They wear handcuffs on their hands and their ankles are connected by iron ropes.

Ling Yu soon saw several familiar figures from these people and suddenly shouted in shock, "They are all residents of the dungeon!"

"What happened to them? Are they the dead, or are they just our illusions? Wang Yue responded, and when she glanced at the crowd, she suddenly found a familiar figure. The man with horns on his head and a moustache on his chin was the goat demon old sheep who had lived in a hotel room with him. He couldn't help running over and calling him, "Old sheep!"

The old sheep's face is sallow, his eyes are lightless, and his body is full of scars. Obviously, he has suffered great pain and suffering. His mind was already in a trance. He slowly came to his senses in the call of the moon. He slowly raised his head and looked at him with empty and dry eyes, making a slight cry for help from his throat.

"It's you, Brother Wutong, save me, save me..." His voice sounded so painful, in sharp contrast to his expressionless face.

"Old sheep, tell me what's going on?" Wang Yue grabbed his arm and asked.

The strange thing is that the seemingly vague shadow just now has a sense of reality and even temperature, and the moment he came into contact with the old sheep, he took the old sheep as the center. The sense of realism expanded outward, and the whole square seemed to suddenly have vitality.

Other people's feelings were the same as that of Wang Yue. Ling Yu also began to find his companions in the extremely happy country in the crowd. From a distance, he saw the boss of the extremely happy country, sturgeon, and several girls were being held together. Although the sturgeon is old and a little fat, she always pays great attention to clothes. In his impression, she has always been wearing dresses with extremely exquisite styles and materials, heavy makeup and meticulously combing her hair, but now her hair is messy and half covered on her face, and her skirt is dirty and torn. It's tattered.

The situation of those girls is not much better. They are untidy, like flowers destroyed by the storm, without the charm and vitality of the past. When they saw Lingyu, they seemed to see the savior. There was light in their eyes, and at the same time, they stretched out their tightly cuffed hands in his direction.

"Lingyu, save us!" The girls shouted almost with one voice.

"What the hell is going on?" Lingyu asked while trying to help them break the handcuffs.

"The city owner sapling was instructed by the mysterious man who lived in the hotel in the east of the city. The design tricked the whole city into this square, and then caught us all. They are going to execute us all in batches, saying that they will slaughter the city, and they won't leave any of them! My sturgeon has been running an amorous shop in the dungeon for so long, and she has lived to this age. I didn't expect it to end like this. The sturgeon choked and answered.

"Where's the coldness?" Lingyu asked her.

"Cold her... I don't know who denounced that she helped you hide a major offender, and she has been..." When it came to cold, the sturgeon cried even more sad. In fact, she treated her very ordinaryly before her death, but now she was sad because she thought that she was about to follow her footsteps.

"How could this happen! Is the salamb go crazy? Such a cruel thing can be done by the slaughter!" Ling Yu roared angrily and hatefully.

At this time, the bell suddenly sounded in the square, followed by a wailing.

"It's going to start again, it's going to start again!" Everyone said this sentence over and over again.

Before Ling Yu understood what was about to start, he saw a team of little demons under the salamblin pushing a big cart over. There are all kinds of torture tools on the car, including long whips, guves, and sticks... These torture tools are all wet and look like they have just been washed.

"We will be dragged out one by one and kill them according to their wishes." A girl who just released her handcuffs and chains on her feet with the help of Ling Yu said to him.

"Don't be afraid of me and the army from Wangcheng. I will never let them touch your hair!" Ling Yu comforted the sturgeon and the girls around her.

"Where is the army of the royal city? Why didn't we see them!" The sturgeon's eyes showed suspicion and asked.

"It's not there..." Ling Yu turned around and pointed, but found that Ouyang Xiao Leng didn't see Ouyang Xiao Leng behind him. He suddenly shouted strangely, "No, they came with me. They were still there just now."

He thought about the possibility that they would suddenly disappear. Did they leave themselves? Or have they already entered the Red Palace? But in any case, it's just in the blink of an eye. Is everything in front of him an illusion? But seeing the eagerness of these residents for salvation, he had to believe that they were real, and he could let them escape the disaster in front of him.

Wang Yue also encountered the same situation as Ling Yu. As soon as he used the moon shadow knife to help the old sheep break the chains and handcuffs, he was told by the old sheep that the owner of the dungeon was carrying out a terrible plan to slaughter the city with Qingyun. He wanted to immediately report all this to Ouyang Hongye and Ouyang Xiao Leng to discuss countermeasures with them. Who knew that he could not even find a companion. He firmly believed that it was impossible for Ouyang Hongye to abandon himself, so he was even more curious about why it was like this.

The little demons had pushed a cart full of torture tools to appear in the square, and he had to take them all down first. After all, a few little demons are not his opponents of Wangyue. As soon as the moon shadow knife comes out, they will kill them three times and five times.

Then he began to untie the residents of the city one by one with the old sheep and prepared to arrange for them to escape outside the dungeon. After all, there were injured cavalry regiment soldiers stationed on the platform at the exit, and they could also temporarily protect these unarmed residents.

He commanded the residents to line up to evacuate the square in order and see them go far away, and then prepared to look around for where Ouyang Hongye had gone. As the residents slowly dispersed, the empty square fell into a dead silence, and the cold air slowly became obvious again, making him shiver.

After this shiver, the world in front of him returned to the scene he saw before he saw the old sheep. Standing beside him was still Ouyang Hongye, and there was a strange look on his face. Wangyue guessed that the expression on his face must be similar to his at this moment.

"Where did you go just now?" Wangyue complained unhappily.

"I also want to ask you! As soon as you turn around, you will all disappear! Then I saw that the square was actually the residents of the dungeon. According to them, they were deceived here by the city owner, the salamant, in order to kill them all!" Ouyang Hongye shook his head and said.

"Slaughter, that's what they said, and said that it was all the devil living in the hotel in the east, that is, the order of Qingyun." Ling Yu also joined in.

"I killed the little demons who pushed the cars full of torture tools first, and let all the residents of the city go." Qianqi described his experience just now with a blank face.

"Where is Xia Qiu and Xiao Leng?" Ouyang Hongye suddenly realized that only the two of them had not spoken yet.

"What you see is the same as what I saw. I met Qingqing. Do you still remember the Qingqing of Huaichun Pavilion? It was she who told us about the Chengdong Hotel. Later, she helped us when we were chased by Qingyun. Xia Qiu had already been stunned by other people's words. He didn't come to his senses until he heard Ouyang Hongye calling him.

"I also saw Qingqing..."

As soon as Ouyang Xiao Leng's words came out, he felt that he had been sucked into the extremely cold whirlpool again. The square in front of him was full of dungeon residents caught by salams. They were still handcuffs and their feet were chained. Their faces were full of fear, waiting for the death that was about to fall on their heads, as if they were repeating the scene just now.

He thought that these people had just been released by himself, and why were they all captured so quickly, so he asked, "Why are you back?"

The nearest resident to him replied, "We have been pressed here for many days. Seeing other people being executed one after another, no one came to save us at all."

"Yes!" The other one is also attached.

"Save us quickly!" The others then began to ask him for help.

Ouyang Xiao Leng didn't understand what had happened. He had never encountered such a situation. If it is an illusion, why is it repeated over and over again? If it weren't for the illusion, why did it appear out of thin air? And when it appeared, his companions disappeared.

No matter what it is. Are they going to rescue these residents again and again? Or see them killed by the little demons and see what will happen after that? He felt that he was gradually lost, and so did Xia Qiu and others.
