Chapter 1148: Hancheng
In the vast Eastern Regions, the mountains that stretch for tens of thousands of miles run through the entire Eastern Regions, and the southern foot borders the surrounding areas of the Holy Mountain, and Hancheng is the top of the northern foot of the mountain range.
Under Xiaoxue's guidance, Yin Dong and they saw the outline of the city at the top of the foothills, between the mountains. The sky is unknown, and the outline of Hancheng is blurred, but knowing the direction, it is much easier to rush over.
Colonel Zhong's group of amnesiac people were all taken into the whirlpool by Yin Dong, and although the other soldiers were in a coma, the whirlpool was still there, and they could not be included in Yin Dong's whirlpool, and the number was a little large, so they cut down some trees and vines, made them into net pockets, and stuffed everyone into the net pockets, so that the ancestors could carry them, and they did not delay the journey.
Starting from Hanshui Pass, when the ancestors faced Yin Dong, they became more and more unconfident, especially the terrifying corpse devouring locust just now, which was completely exterminated by Yin Dong alone, so no one expressed dissatisfaction with what Yin Dong asked them to do.
Yin Dong held Xiaoxue in one hand and Xiaobao in the other, leading the way in front, and his spiritual power spread like a tide, not only to perceive the danger lurking in the jungle, but also to exude a strong dragon power to deter the fierce beasts in the jungle.
With the dragon's might, the fierce beasts in the jungle really didn't dare to look for death. Yin Dong: They were extremely smooth along the way. It's just that Wangshan ran a dead horse, and the outline of Hancheng could be seen on the bank of the river, but they ran at full speed, and they didn't run to Hancheng until midnight.
"Shouldn't we? We've been running for so long, why haven't we arrived yet?" Jiang Laozu questioned.
"Could it be a ghost hitting the wall?" Tu Lao Zu said heartlessly, with a curious face.
Yin Dong didn't answer Tu Lao Zu's words, but said to Jiang Lao Zu: "Pick up and say, we can see the outline of Hancheng, it is impossible to run for so long and not arrive, could it be that we are going in the opposite direction?" For example, Hancheng is actually on the other side, and the outline of Hancheng that we see from this angle is just a projection of it?"
Jiang Laozu asked, "You mean it's like a mirage?"
"It may be a projection effect created by artificially using the environment. Yin Dong said, and asked Xiaoxue again: "Is there anything strange near Hancheng?"
Xiaoxue is really smart, a little bit of a villain, she knows a lot, her eyes rolled and rolled, and she immediately said: "Yes, yes, there is a mirror lake outside the city, but it's beautiful, my sister took me to play secretly." ”
Xiaobao asked curiously, "Why did you go secretly?"
"I don't know!" Xiao Xue spread her little hands, and her pink little face showed an innocent expression.
Yin Dong guessed that someone must have used the mirror lake to project the outline of Hancheng in another direction to hide the true location of Hancheng.
Tu Lao Zu listened to Yin Dong's speculation and wondered: "Why do you want to build a city in this barren mountain and mountain and hide the location?"
Where did Yin Dong know why, and said: "It has nothing to do with us, no matter why he is, Ancestor, we just need to find Hancheng quickly, find the medicine that saves people, and then set off for the Holy Mountain." ”
Xiaobao mended the knife: "Tu Lao Zu, stupid death!"
"You little villain, you actually scolded the ancestor, and the ancestor beat your ancestor when you turned around!" Tu Lao Zu was bored and quarreled with Xiaobao.
"The ancestor is stupid, and he can't beat the ancestor. Xiao Bao defended his ancestor, and specially said to Xiaoxue: "The baby's ancestor is the most powerful, no one can beat him!"
Tu Laozu is a bar spirit, and deliberately raised the bar: "Dongzi can't beat it?"
Xiaobao didn't hesitate at all, his little hand slapped Yin Dong's head, and said domineeringly: "The master fights, the rake doesn't dare to move!"
Yin Dong couldn't cry or laugh: "It's good for you to praise your ancestor, why are you beating your father?" I didn't say that my ancestor was not good. ”
Everyone laughed, and some of the ancestors who began to be jealous of Yin Dong in their hearts relaxed and felt that their father and son's feelings for Master Yin Dong were a constant fetters, and Yin Dong's strength was not afraid of improving quickly, after all, he would not do anything that damaged his true lineage.
Talking about jokes, after Yindong changed directions, when the sky was light, everyone saw the Hancheng that was more magnificent and magnificent than Hanshui Pass.
This ancient city, the city walls are also like the culvert pass, which has been baptized by wind and rain and war, with potholes, countless stone cracks are permeated with dark and dry blood clots, and the whole city exudes a thick and vicissitudes of life, as well as an oppressive murderous aura.
The murderous aura emitted by Hancheng is different from the evil aura of Hanshui Pass, it is simply the hand that has gone through countless wars, the residual killing aura, and there is no bloody and evil nature of the evil aura.
In addition, Hanshui Pass was dead silent, but Hancheng was full of people, and many people entered and exited through the city gate.
Before dawn, the gates were not opened, but there were already people lining up at the gates, waiting for the gates to be opened, and then they entered the city.
Many people in line carry large bags and small bags containing medicinal herbs or wild vegetables and fruits collected in the mountains and forests, and more people bring prey, with a wide variety of species, including tigers and leopards, pheasants and hares, pangolins and pythons, and even poisons such as scorpions and centipedes.
When Yin Dong and his party came over, they thought that ten people would pay attention, but they didn't expect that the others didn't pay attention at all.
Those people had blank expressions, they were all tired, or they were wary, no one talked to each other, and they rarely spoke to each other, and a few words of conversation made Yin Dong understand that the people in Hancheng basically spoke Chinese, but the tone was a little strange.
Yin Dong and the others were actually tired, with a touch of tiredness between their eyebrows and eyes. It's not that the physical strength can't hold on, but the rush these days, not just rushing, and always have to prevent danger from coming, and everyone's mental energy consumption is a little large. And among them, the most tired is Yin Dong.
Waiting for the time when the city gate opened, Yin Dong squinted for a while, and heard someone shouting "The city gate is open", he opened his eyes and found that when it was dawn here in Hancheng, he could still see a touch of morning light.
Those in line looked like they had been beaten with chicken blood, and their expressions were excited. Especially those who carry prey, they are all strong men who lick blood on the tip of the knife, violent and bloodthirsty, exuding an unruly aura, and they are obviously more wild and ferocious than the rest of the people who carry large bags and small bags.
Yin Dong and his party did not squeeze with the people in front, and walked slowly at the end.
Seeing that everyone in front of him had to pay the city tax, and it was a tax deduction in kind, Yin Dong took out some branches of the corpse eater, and tried to ask the city gate guard: "We got some branches of the corpse eater, can we deduct the tax?"
The ancestors were worried that he would be beaten, but unexpectedly, the guards' eyes lit up, and they said happily, "Yes!"
After saying that, the guards waved generously and let them all enter the city.
Yin Dong felt that the value of the corpse devouring locust might be huge, so he attracted the spirit artifact illustrated book to scan it. Soon, a message came to his mind: Corpse Eater, Holy Grade Demon Plant (evolvable). In addition, there is a detailed description of the cultivation method of the corpse locust, as well as an application note.
