Wu Renliang, Xiao Qi'er, Yeli, and Yeqi walked forward in the plague land for another two days, thinking that they would soon be able to meet with Yi Qingfeng and others, but they didn't expect that there was still no news after two days, and Wu Renliang couldn't help but be a little anxious. On this day, everyone was resting in a forest, Wu Renliang said to the little beggar: "Little beggar, why haven't we met my companions after walking for so many days, don't you want to fool me with your mouth, and eat and drink by my side by the way?"

The little beggar sneered: "I said Brother Wu, in your eyes, my little beggar is such an unbearable person, if you want to eat and drink, you can't go anywhere, you have to follow you around in this barren mountains and mountains." Look at the food and drink you give, it's just some dry steamed buns and boiled water, although my little beggar is from a poor family, I won't sell myself to you for this pitiful food and drink. ”

Wu Renliang said: "You little devil is reasonable, you can't talk to me at every turn, you just say where did you see my companions before?"

The little beggar said: "This barren mountain and wild mountain looks the same everywhere, I am also a little confused, a few days ago I remember seeing those heroes with strong martial arts near this area." ”

Yeli and Yeqi on the side said: "Master, we also suffered a defeat in this area some time ago, and then fled, and the little beggar didn't tell a lie." ”

Wu Renliang said: "Okay, let's believe you again, in this case, presumably those companions of mine must be nearby, let's rest a little longer, and then we will continue to hurry." ”

The people rested for a while, and then got up and hurried. Although Wu Renliang thought that Yi Qingfeng and the others were nearby, it was not easy to find them, and everyone walked over the mountains and mountains for half a day and still found nothing. Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, Wu Renliang was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart, and he secretly said in his heart: "I'm really anxious, where did they go." ”

Just when he was secretly annoyed, a little beggar shouted in the distance: "Wu Daxia, come here, there is a village over there, let's hurry over and take a look, maybe we can find out some news." ”

Wu Renliang, Yeli, and Yeqi hurriedly ran over, and sure enough, they saw a village at the foot of the mountain, and many farmlands and houses could be vaguely seen. As he spoke, he walked briskly down the mountain.

When everyone walked to the entrance of the village, they saw that the village was empty and there was not even a single figure to be seen, not even the shadow of poultry and livestock, Wu Renliang wondered: "Why is this village so desolate, where have all the people gone?"

The little beggar said, "Could it be that the villagers we met two days ago were evacuated from this village?"

Wu Renliang said: "What you said makes sense, it must be so, otherwise you won't even see a figure." ”

Everyone walked along the road towards the village, walking, and suddenly there was a neat and powerful cry in their ears, and the little beggar was taken aback and said: "Oh, this sound seems to have come from many people, it seems that there is not a single person in this village." ”

Wu Renliang said happily: "I heard that the sound seemed to come from the area on the right, let's take a look." As he spoke, he took the lead in sweeping towards the many houses scattered on the right, and the little beggar, Yeli, and Yeqi followed closely behind.

Everyone rushed for a while, the shouts in their ears became clearer and clearer, and after turning a few corners, everyone came to a wide flat land, only to see dozens of men on the flat ground practicing with knives and sticks, seeing Wu Renliang and others appearing, especially seeing Yeli and Yeqi, a group of men hurriedly gathered together, each holding the weapon in his hand and looking at these uninvited guests in front of him vigilantly.

Wu Renliang was worried that they would misunderstand and hurriedly spoke: "Don't be nervous, folks, these two ghouls are servants under you, and they won't hurt any of you without my orders." ”

One of the elders in the villagers opened his mouth and said, "Who are you, and why did you break into this place for no reason?"

Wu Renliang said: "Down there is Wu Renliang, a scholar disciple of the Martial Sect of the Ten Thousand Dust Continent, who came here to find close friends from the academy who entered this place a few months ago, I heard that they and the disciples of the medical sect have teamed up to eliminate many evil ghouls, I wonder if you have seen them?"

The elders and a group of villagers gathered around and said: "It turned out to be Yi Shaoxia's friend, that's a distinguished guest, I won't tell you, everyone in our village has to thank them, if they didn't destroy the ghouls in this area, I'm afraid we will live in dire straits for the rest of our lives, and be enslaved by the ghouls." As he spoke, he invited Wu Renliang into the house for tea.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and Wu Renliang said straightforwardly: "Have you met those friends here recently?"

The elder said, "Why not, they are in the mountains thirty miles away from here, and every day the village will send people to bring them food to eat." ”

Wu Renliang was overjoyed and said: "Great, I can be regarded as finding them." He then asked, "We walked around the village for a while just now, and we didn't see anyone but you, so dare you ask where the other villagers have gone?"

The elder said: "The people in our village were captured by those ghouls to make cattle and horses as slaves for them, and the ghouls who enslaved us in this area a few days ago were all wiped out, and we regained our freedom, and many villagers in the village evacuated first when they were in a hurry to return to their homes. The remaining thirty or forty people here are reluctant to leave the ripening crops, and when we have harvested them, we will leave here and return to our hometowns. As he spoke, he couldn't help but express joy from the bottom of his heart.

Wu Renliang and Xiao Qi'er listened and were happy for them, plus the news of Qingfeng and the others was finally there, it could be described as a happy event. Wu Renliang couldn't help but spill his addiction and said: "Fellow villagers, now that you have regained your life, I don't know if there is wine, we have to drink it." ”

The elder said: "Wu Shaoxia is reasonable, you must have worked very hard all the way to come from afar, I will go to prepare wine and food, let's have a good drink to celebrate." As he spoke, he arranged for the villagers to prepare food and drink.

It didn't take long for bowls of fragrant wine and delicacies to be served, and Wu Renliang and the little beggar were also unceremonious, mingling with the villagers, eating and drinking.

Let's say that after Yi Qingfeng defeated Pario's army, he came up with the idea of returning to Guiye City to move the rescue troops, and then he discussed the idea with Mu Qianqian, Xiang Chen, and Fu Chunjiang, and everyone agreed with his idea. Seeing that everyone was unanimous and everyone did not drag their feet, they withdrew from the battle site with the ghouls the next day.

Since they had decided to return, why did Wu Renliang find out in the village that they were still in the mountains, it turned out that there was a reason.

On that day, Yi Qingfeng, Mu Qianqian and their entourage were retreating as planned, and after walking for a long time, everyone was tired and hungry, so they immediately found a place to rest and eat some food to replenish their strength. He just unbuttoned his pants when he suddenly saw a series of footprints on the ground, these footprints looked big and deep, obviously not ghouls or humans, Yi Qingfeng wondered: "Could it be that there are other monsters in this plague land." The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and after a quick moment, he came to the resting place.

Yi Qingfeng returned to rest and said to Mu Qianqian and Xiang Chen, who were still resting, "You two guess what I just saw?"

Xiang Chen looked at Yi Qingfeng with a fuss and said, "What did you see, could it be that you saw a ghost?"

Mu Qianqian said: "Say what you see, could it be that there are other ghosts in this plague land besides ghouls?"

Yi Qingfeng said: "Qianqian, I really let you say, I just saw a string of strange footprints in the forest over there, those footprints are big and deep, they can't be left by ghouls or humans, there are other ghosts hiding in this plague land nine times out of ten." ”

Everyone was curious when they heard Yi Qingfeng say this, and Fu Chunjiang walked over and said, "This is a new situation, why don't we go over and take a look?"

Yi Qingfeng said: "I also have this intention. As he spoke, he led the group towards the location of the string of mysterious footprints.

When everyone arrived, they were immediately stunned by the many large and deep footprints in front of them, Xiang Chen sighed secretly: "I estimate that this monster is not small, and it can be seen from its footprints. ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "Let's look around again to see where these footprints go." So saying, the crowd scattered around and searched for it.

Sure enough, everyone found many similar footprints, and what surprised everyone even more was that there were still a lot of gold dust scattered around these footprints, which made everyone even more excited. Xiang Chen danced happily and said: "Haha, we're going to get rich, it seems that this monster has something to do with gold, do you think it will be a monster made of gold?"

Yi Qingfeng said: "You want to go crazy if you want money, I have seen ingots made of gold, and monsters made of gold can be imagined." As he spoke, he led the group to follow the footprints.

Xiang Chen snorted coldly: "The world is so big, there is no need for surprise, haven't we seen monsters made of stone before, why can't there be monsters made of gold." Listen, if I guess later, you won't rob me. So saying, he quickly followed.

Everyone followed the footprints until they reached a mountain that was hundreds of meters long, and the side of the mountain was full of rolling mountains, and there was no way out. Yi Qingfeng couldn't help but wonder: "What's going on, the footprints are broken here, and there is no way out ahead, where is this monster?"

Mu Qianqian pondered for a moment and said, "Could this monster fly away with wings?" ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "I don't believe it, if he can fly, why did he take such a long way to fly, why didn't he fly at the beginning?"

Xiang Chen said: "Is this not clear, the mountain in front of me is blocking the way, and there is no way to go, so I can only fly over." ”

Yi Qingfeng said: "Don't be whimsical, I'd rather believe that he came from the ground than believe that he flew from the sky, let's look around again and see if we can find any other clues." So saying, the people began to search at the foot of the mountain.

Yi Qingfeng carefully observed the stone wall in front of him, only to see that there were many bryophytes growing on its surface, and the inside was all composed of hard boulders. As he spoke, he kept touching the stone wall.

Everyone kept searching, and suddenly a disciple of the medical sect shouted, "Here, here, there is something." The crowd hurried over, only to see a mysterious black stone with a very smooth surface that had been ground to a very smooth surface in a dense bush.

Yi Qingfeng said: "This stone has some doorways, I guess it's a mechanism, you get out of the way, I'll see if I can move it." As he spoke, he secretly urged the true qi in his body and tried to turn the stones.

The stone really had some spirituality, and as soon as the true qi urged by Yi Qingfeng was emanated, it began to shake violently, and suddenly the ground under everyone's feet also shook, and then a gap was revealed and everyone swallowed it all. It turned out that there was a cave under the ground, and everyone was stunned by everything in front of them when they fell down, in this space of more than ten meters, there were stone walls all around, and these stone walls were not ordinary stone walls, but stone walls with golden shavings.

Xiang Chen stroked the gold dust on the stone wall and smiled from ear to ear and said, "God, I can't be dreaming, there is a lot of gold in this stone wall, we are going to get rich." ”

Although Yi Qingfeng was not as excited as Xiang Chen, he was also thrilled when he looked at the treasures shining with golden light, and he secretly said in his heart: "This place is really magical, who would have thought that there would be such a place in the world, it can really be said to be full of gold." ”

It took a long time for everyone to gradually calm down, Yi Qingfeng said: "There is gold everywhere here, everyone must be very excited, but don't forget why we came, don't take the gold for the time being, let's see what monsters are waiting for us ahead." As he spoke, he led the group onwards.
