Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 325: The only thing missing is a head
"Brother Xiao, why did you come back just now?"

The next morning, Xiao Ran changed his clothes and returned to the inn. Dong Ruopu and others were sitting at the table eating breakfast. When Dong Ruopu saw Xiao Ran coming back, he immediately ran over.

Before he even finished the food in his mouth, he had already started dancing and gesticulating with Xiao Ran.

"Yesterday, did you see it yesterday?"

"See what?"

"Oh, Frost Concubine, Frost Concubine drew her sword and killed the locust god with one strike. The whole city was covered with snow, and the whole place was white for ten miles."

Dong Ruopu gestured with his hands and could not help reciting the poem: "The sword rises in Chang'an to shame the blue moon, and the whole world is as white as the painted paper."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to be intoxicated in poetry. Obviously, the elegance of this sword rekindled Dong Ruopu's hope for the cruel world.

After reciting the poem, I couldn't help but mutter to myself, "Why can't I write a poem like this?"

"Brother Xiao... Eh? Where is he? Brother Xiao, wait for me..." When Dong Ruopu turned around and didn't see Xiao Ran, he realized that Xiao Ran had already walked towards the guest room.

He immediately chased after him and continued speaking.

"Brother Xiao, you said that the Frost Concubine has been born. I believe that this matter will spread all over the world soon. By then, the Yellow Disaster Army will not dare to come to Wancheng."

Xiao Ran stopped and looked back at Dong Ruopu: "Do you think so?"

"Forehead……"

Dong Ruopu saw Xiao Ran looking at him, and he suddenly felt unsure, so he said, "That's what people say outside, and many people think so."

"Yes, Huang Zaijun thinks so too."

Xiao Ran shook his head, pushed open the door of his room and strode into the guest room.

Dong Ruopu was a little confused now.

He walked in, closed the door, then sat down and poured Xiao Ran a cup of tea.

"Brother, do you mean that Huang Zai is still going to come to Wancheng?"

"Yes, the Yellow Army will definitely come to Wancheng, and they will take it first. It is not difficult to bypass Wancheng, but this will cut off the retreat of the Yellow Army. Ruzhou, Runing and other places must have been fortified at this moment, and they may not be able to break in even if they attack by force. Once the offensive is frustrated, their retreat will be cut off and they will be trapped and fight."

Xiao Ran explained to Dong Ruopu.

The Yellow Disaster Army is different from the demons in other places. If they rush in, they won’t care whether you are evil or not, they will just stuff your food into their mouths.

As long as they can chew you, they will bite you into pieces and stuff you into their stomachs even if it means they lose their teeth.

Whether it is Nuomen or the Yinshan Society in Runing, what are the original purposes of these cults?
Of course, it is to gather believers and accumulate wealth.

If all the people were eaten up by the Yellow Disaster Army, what would be the point of leaving them with an empty city? ?
So Ruzhou seems to be in disarray, but if the Huangzai Army rushes in, it will inevitably be attacked from all sides by both the good and evil forces in Ruzhou.

The lives of ordinary people are not important, but we cannot live without them.

Even an outsider like me can see it clearly, so I don’t believe that the priests in the Yellow Disaster Army can’t see it.

Therefore, Wancheng must be the first target of Huangzai’s army’s attack.

If you think that the Yellow Disaster Army will not dare to come because Concubine Shuang is in charge, you are totally wrong.

On the contrary, it is because of the existence of Shuang Fei that the Huangzai Army will be forced to gather all its most elite forces.

After Xiao Ran briefly explained to Dong Ruopu, Dong Ruopu realized that the situation seemed a little different from what he thought.

"If I were you, leaving as soon as possible before the Yellow Calamity arrives would probably be the best option. Just wait and see if you don't believe me. I'm afraid it would be great if half of the people can come to this gathering."

If Dong Ruopu left now, his side quest would definitely fail, but Xiao Ran didn't care about a small side quest. If this kid left, he wouldn't have to be distracted by him.

After all, Xiao Ran quite likes this silly boy who is new to the world.

"I do not go."

Dong Ruopu laid his head on the table and said lazily, "I came all the way from Jinling with great difficulty, but I didn't see Shuang Fei, Qing Nv, or any heroes. I'm just one step away from going back. How can I hold my head up high in the future?"

Xiao Ran rolled his eyes, too lazy to explain the danger inside to him, and could only say: "You should take care of your body first. I can tell from your face that you are very weak."

As Xiao Ran spoke, he took out a silver needle and inserted it into Dong Ruopu's body. After a few injections, Dong Ruopu felt his stomach churning and he couldn't stop vomiting a ball of dirty stuff. Then, the complexion of his face looked much better.

"Brother, ahem..." Dong Ruopu took a sip of tea to catch his breath. Looking at the dirty thing he spit on the ground, he couldn't help but bowed to Xiao Ran: "Brother, you are very clever, but I accidentally made your room dirty."

"No problem. I found a house in the north of the city. Do you want to move in with me?"

"Of course, I'll go wherever Big Brother goes."

"Pack up and get ready to go."

"okay."

Dong Ruopu walked out of the door happily and went to settle the bill at the inn.

On the way out of the inn, I saw that everyone on the street had a sallow complexion.

Those with weaker physical constitutions also suffered from vomiting and diarrhea.

In fact, this is already a very good result. If the Locust God had continued to wreak havoc in Wancheng, it is estimated that half of the people in the city would have died before the Yellow Disaster Army rushed over.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but thank his master for passing on the Corpse Sutra to him. Although the Half Yin-Yang technique was not a great magical power, it could always buy him a way out at the critical moment.

He brought Dong Ruopu and his party to where he lived.

The cool breeze made Dong Ruopu and others feel chilly all over.

It's autumn now, and it's so cold that I want to put my hands and feet in my arms.

"Brother Xiao, this place... is too remote."

Dong Ruopu looked at the dilapidated houses in front of him. Not only him, a nobleman born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but even the guards who followed him felt they looked shabby.

"That's how life is. If you want to enjoy life, go back to your Jinling City, Yangzhou Skinny Horse, and have fun however you want."

Xiao Ran glared at him unhappily.

"No, no, no, I don't dare to go to that kind of place. This place is pretty good, pretty good."

Dong Ruopu hurriedly explained himself that he dared not touch something like the Yangzhou skinny horse. If he did, his father would break his legs.

What is a "thin horse"?

"Her skin is smooth and slender, she walks like a graceful swan and lies like a delicate oriole."

The subject of such a beautiful description is a pitiful group - the child prostitutes in Yangzhou.

It refers to those delicate young girls who are bought by wealthy businessmen and tortured and ravaged at will like weak horses.

In reality, some ignorant idiots thought they were riding horses in Yangzhou or riding old horses in Yangzhou, and thought it was quite romantic.

For this reason, he even posted a message on WeChat Moments: "I would like to be a skinny horse from Yangzhou and wander around the world with you."

When Xiao Ran saw this news, his brain CPU almost failed, and he couldn't understand how unrestrained this person was.

In addition to the skinny horses from Yangzhou, there are also the women from Datong, the boat girls from West Lake, and the nuns from Mount Tai.

It can be regarded as a weather vane of ancient brothels, just like Dongguan in those days.

Ahem, I said too much.

Back to the topic, Xiao Ran pointed to another small courtyard next to him and said, "You can just live there. I'll be next door to you."

It's not just this small courtyard. There are only a few families living here, but Xiao Ran bought them all.

Avoid someone accidentally seeing something they shouldn't see. Whether the other person reports it to the police or spreads it around, it will be troublesome for you.

There are all kinds of furniture in the house and the environment is a bit shabby, but since you have come out to travel the world, don't care about these things.

Xiao Ran arranged Dong Ruopu and the others under his nose. On the one hand, he hoped to keep them away from danger. On the other hand, since Dong Ruopu did not plan to leave, Xiao Ran had no choice but to take him with him to the gathering. After all, completing a task successfully would give him an extra reward.

After Xiao Ran finished making arrangements here, he went back to his room and began to study how to piece together the bodies that were fished out of the underworld.

None of the corpses brought up from the underworld were complete. The old demon took action several times and left him with some complete corpses, but these corpses were too big and could not fit into his own space.

We can only take the essence and discard the dross. Of course there will be waste, but it’s meaningless to worry about it now.

After a whole night of hard work, we still couldn't sew up Beast Master's body.

Xiao Ran had to work overtime all night tonight.

It’s different from when I was in Huangquan.

Those things in Huangquan just grow randomly. The main point is that no one can see each other, so just do whatever is convenient for you.

Anyway, in water, you can swim with three legs or with two legs.

But here Xiao Ran wants to use Shouye's body as the main body, so he has to consider coordination and functionality.

Picking and choosing, repeated confirmation, this is a delicate job and Xiao Ran cannot do it casually.

As the sky gradually brightened, Xiao Ran took out a bottle of pure water from the space and drank it in one gulp. Then he looked at the body of Beast Master in front of him, and there was finally a little relief on his face.

I saw that the body of Shouye in front of me had completely changed. His body suddenly expanded two times. The originally strong man has now turned into a two-meter fat man.

Halfway through, Xiao Ran had to throw out all the tables, chairs, benches and beds in the room.

There are eight black tentacles on Beastmaster's back, just like Dr. Octopus in the movie.

His abdomen was split open, exposing his abdominal cavity to the air, surrounded by densely packed teeth that went round and round like a meat grinder.

In the center is a sharp mouthpart connected to a stomach sac that can spray out liquid with extremely corrosive effects.

Under the ribs, Xiao Ran also specially sewed two thick arms, and the owner of the arms was Zhao Shixiong's.

This guy has been practicing palm techniques for many years, and his arm muscles are very solid, just right for supporting two pairs of sharp claws on both sides.

Looking at the huge creature in front of him, Xiao Ran was quite expectant: "Now... all that's missing is a head."

Just as he was thinking about it, Xiao Ran suddenly frowned.

He glanced towards the prison in the distance, his eyes becoming gloomy: "Someone dares to touch my sword..."
