chapter 3 Heavenly Palace Underworld

Compared with Quintaria , Pendora is located in a remote location, not prosperous, and even somewhat turbulent.

The forces of all parties were mixed, and the Suillian Dynasty in Quintaria was unable to intervene. The monks of the thunder monastery and priest of the Path Ancestry established sects in this land, and it was common to use force to violate the prohibition.

When she went to the pawn shop to pawn the crimson jade bracelet, Yves Nixon had a lot of thoughts and refused the shopkeeper's offer to auction it on her behalf. She took four hundred taels of silver and left. If she went into the pavilion to have a deep discussion, how many taels could this chain be sold for... .... Yves Nixon doesn’t know, but in the desolate area of ​​Valethorn, Yves Nixon probably knows a lot about the bones that are buried every year.

Even if you can really make a thousand taels, it has nothing to do with you.

On a sunny afternoon, Yves Nixon led Fanny Braddell, and the two of them changed into a new set of clothes. Before, they had fished in the troubled waters of Valethorn, fearing to offend the big shots they couldn't afford, so Yves Nixon only dared to steal some small things and trinkets. My son, going to mass graves to rob graves... was purely a last resort after not having any "harvest" for several days.

Who wants to deal with those gods and ghosts?

Yves Nixon has lived in the church since she was a child, and they have lived together for more than ten years. Even though she does not believe in the way of gods and ghosts in her heart, she still has a sense of awe.

What exactly is there at the top of your head?

Yves Nixon didn't know, but he knew that his life was not easy.

Bow your head when you can. Why bother competing with those who have something and don't have it?

"Four hundred taels, you and I bought six sets of clothes in total. We spent one tael. I bought you a hairpin for half a tael. We had a good meal, half a tael, and scattered things. It cost a total of four and a half taels."Yves Nixon clapped his fingers and said with a sad face: "Fanny Braddell, why are you saying that a map of Pendora is so expensive, and it was sold for ten taels? Have we been deceived?"

The girl holding Yves Nixon's arm changed into white clothes. She spent half a tael of silver to buy an imitation sword and put it on her waist. She jumped up and down and said with a smile: "It's four hundred taels. We have more than three hundred taels left, and there is still a lot~"

When he said "one", Fanny Braddell took a big step forward, turned around and made a cat face, showing his teeth and claws. It could be seen that the girl was really happy, and he squatted down at the roadside stall again, smiling broadly. Pick out those little girl stuff.

Yves Nixon sighed and knelt down with her, watching Fanny Braddell pick and choose, and finally played with a red fish jade pendant and couldn't put it down.

Yves Nixon said helplessly: "We can't go there on foot and hire a car all the way. Pendora is very chaotic. If you still want to follow the caravan...you will find me nagging again. Just spend money." Well, anyway, if we don’t have enough money on the way, I will sell you, collect some traveling expenses, and continue to live in my ruined temple."

Fanny Braddell put the red fish jade pendant back with a grimace, his hand resting in the air, obviously waiting for someone to speak.

Yves Nixon looked at the sun shining on Fanny Braddell's side face. This face was clean and tender, bright and moving, and the facial features were stretched out like a hibiscus emerging from the water. At this moment, he gritted his teeth and frowned, which was really pitiful.

Yves Nixon suddenly had a headache and reluctantly said: "Buy it, buy it."

Fanny Braddell was unmoved and still looked like he was about to put down the jade pendant. Chu Chu said pitifully: "I'm afraid that if the money is not enough, you will sell me and go back to Pendora alone."

Yves Nixon held up his forehead and sighed: "If the money is not enough, I will sell myself, okay, ancestor?"

Fanny Braddell was still unhappy and muttered: "That's okay, I want to be with Yves Nixon!"

The vendor setting up the stall looked at the girl's half-face and was in a daze. He couldn't help but want to give the jade pendant away and teach the stingy poor boy in front of him a lesson.

Yves Nixon sighed, thinking that this girl might be a disaster for the country and the people when she grew up. She quickly threw down a small pile of copper coins, turned around and pulled Fanny Braddell away.

The girl screamed all the way, and the boy pulled her in front of her. They passed the street stall and then stopped for a moment.

Fanny Braddell jumped in front of Yves Nixon, put his hands on his knees, smiled widely, and said cheerfully: "Yves Nixon, you are so kind!"

Yves Nixon didn't take this trick. He pinched Fanny Braddell's face with both hands and moved it back and forth. Seeing the girl moaning in pain, thinking that the things were almost ready at this time, he glanced at his relatively bulging pocket. In a good mood, he corrected with a smile: "It's nice to have money."

The gate of Valethorn suddenly heard the sound of being opened.

The crowd surged.

Yves Nixon narrowed her eyes, hugged Fanny Braddell and took two steps back.

The streets of Valethorn made way out.

After the city gate was fully opened, dozens of tall and strong white horses appeared. The sound of horse hooves deafened the ears. The people riding on the tall white horses were all wearing white linen robes. The white linen robes were not very clean, and there were There was no time to clean the blood stains, and they were hunted by the wind at this moment, covering the heads and faces of these people, making it difficult to see their faces.

Yves Nixon face became solemn. He turned his back to the practitioners who were riding white horses and wearing white robes. He raised a finger in front of his lips, whispered softly, then opened his arms and gently hugged Fanny Braddell.

Fanny Braddell was stunned, but did not resist. He pursed his lips, stretched his eyebrows, and smiled. He naturally wrapped his hands around Yves Nixon's waist, buried his whole body in Yves Nixon chest, and took a deep breath.

There were rustling sounds from the crowd.

"They are people from Heavenly Palace... They always act in a high-profile manner, but Pendora is not their territory. Why did they come to Valethorn?"

"I heard that something unclean has escaped from the mass graves Valethorn. Several major forces nearby should arrive at Valethorn soon after hearing the news. Not only Heavenly Palace Practitioners, weirdos from the Underworld, and several holy mountains in Quintaria may also come."

"And I heard that when that 'thing' ran out in the middle of the night last night, Heavenly Palace had already fought with 'it'. It seems that... it didn't get any benefits."Yves Nixon was beside him. The man looked around and frowned in a low voice: "Those people from Quintaria came faster than the people from thunder monastery and Path Ancestry, which means that there may be a lot of opportunity in that 'thing'."

"Opportunity?" Another person pondered: "There has always been something evil over there in the mass grave... thunder monastery and Path Ancestry wanted to pry a cemetery, and seventy or eighty disciples died before and after, and not a single one came out. , will it happen this time?”

There was another strange movement outside the city gate, which sounded like the sound of swords, and the crowd started to riot again.

Yves Nixon and Fanny Braddell fell silent for a while after hearing the conversation between those people. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they quickly slipped out of the crowd of onlookers in Valethorn, found a remote place, and then cautiously left the city.

Along the way.

Mass graves, evil, unclean things...

These words stirred back and forth in Ning Yi's mind, and invisible pressure pressed on Yves Nixon heart. Last night's experience was like a big stone. Even the people in Heavenly Palace didn't keep it. What the hell is it? It can't be true. Did you release it yourself?

The evil feeling in my heart is getting heavier and heavier.

Yves Nixon scalp felt numb as he hurried along, and he asked in a low voice: "Fanny Braddell, did you see anything strange when you came down to pick me up?"

The girl who was being carried along by Yves Nixon looked a little confused and muttered: "No, the cemetery is empty, and the lights are dark, you can't see anything. I carried you up on my back, and dragged you a little further." , and finally I was about to leave when I heard strange noises from the mass grave..."

Yves Nixon breathed a brief sigh of relief in his heart. He was frightened for a while and murmured in a low voice: "Fortunately, we are lucky. If you had been slower and met those in the Heavenly Palace and those unclean things, I guess we It’s all over.”

When they arrived at the Guanyin Temple, Yves Nixon was still uneasy, but Fanny Braddell was there with the old god, calm as a mountain despite the weather, stuffing red dates into his mouth one by one, and muttered: "Are you worried about being haunted by monsters... ...That thing came out and had a fight with the people from Heavenly Palace. I guess I didn’t get any benefits. I would seek revenge from the Heavenly Palace people, but they couldn’t find us. Besides, let’s put it away. Come out, even if it comes to your door, it would like to thank us."

Yves Nixon took a deep breath and rubbed his eyebrows.

He looked at his right hand. He didn't tell Fanny Braddell about the "Sunlit Bead". The bead shattered in his hand. From then on, the feeling of haze lingered in his heart.

Yves Nixon looked around and gritted his teeth and said, "This is a church. I don't believe it. How dare you make trouble in front of a Bodhisattva?"

Fanny Braddell sat on the bedside and watched the young man untie the big package and start taking things out one by one.

Pendora Xiehu, when he was in Valethorn, Yves Nixon bought a lot of self-defense items.

Cans of black dog blood were sprinkled on the ground, and a mahogany sword hung high in front of the temple, swaying in the wind.

Fanny Braddell was stunned.

Yves Nixon shook her head and turned three times, then took out a bunch of garlic and hung it on the bedside.

Fanny Braddell picked up the garlic in disgust, frowned, covered his nose and said, "Yves Nixon! When did you buy it?"

Yves Nixon looked sideways at the girl, took the garlic, broke it in half, took a deep breath, and said while holding back her breath: "Be careful, we will leave tomorrow. If the monster dares to come to your door tonight, , I will let him see what it means to be crazy."

Fanny Braddell watched Yves Nixon walking around and decorating the ruined temple inside and out. In the end, he was still worried. He took out the "Coiling Dragon Incense" he bought in his bag, lit it with great distress, and inserted it into the statue of Bodhisattva. In front of him, the smoke from the incense burner dispersed. Yves Nixon seriously clasped his hands together, whispered for a while, stared at the Bodhisattva statue for a long time, and then inserted two cloves of garlic into the incense burner...

The smell in the temple became very strange.

After doing this, it was already dark, and the two of them casually ate some food.

Yves Nixon took another look around, and the uneasy thoughts in her heart were dispersed. Only a little bit, she felt at ease and pushed Fanny Braddell to the bed, saying: "Be patient, we only have one night tonight, and we will go to bed at dawn." Walk."

Fanny Braddell pinched his nose and reluctantly squeezed into a small broken bed with Yves Nixon.

Yves Nixon, who had made all-out plans, opened his eyes and stared at the bunch of garlic hanging on his bedside, preparing to endure the night and just get over it.

However, his eyelids were like pendants, his eyes slowly closed, and sleepiness slowly came over his mind.
