Chapter Forty-Eight: The Strange Donkey
This blue brick avenue is also weird, the farther it goes, its movement is completely restricted, three days ago, except for Lin Fan who can jump five meters away, the other four people can only move forward on foot like ordinary people, but after walking dozens of miles, Lin Fan is also the same as the other four people, there is a vast spiritual power, but there is no trace of use, the five people have also walked into the woods, but it is also the same as the blue brick avenue, it seems that the restricted range should be centered on the circle path.
"Let's rest here first"
Lin Fan shouted, the five of them didn't carry any dry food and water, if it weren't for the nameless wild fruits on both sides of the avenue and the dew collected in the early morning, the five of them would probably die of thirst and starvation on this green brick avenue.
Lin Fan was already a cultivator in the three transition periods, and it was okay if he didn't eat or drink for a month, but the other four people were different, their realms were all in the transformation stage, and they only lasted three to five days at most.
Just as the five of them were sitting on the avenue, each rubbing their legs, a sudden cricket sound sounded in the woods.
"Youkai?"
The five immediately stood up from the ground and watched vigilantly in the direction where the sound was coming from.
After three sounds, oh, bang, oh, a brown donkey jumped out of the grass, and with a sonorous sound, the donkey's four hooves stepped on the avenue, startling the five people, the donkey seemed to be frightened by Lin Fan and the others, a pair of big eyes blinked, nostrils sprayed hot air, and looked at the five people in front of him in confusion.
"Humans? You're humans? What are you doing here?"
The donkey opened its mouth to speak, it sniffed a few times, smelled the human breath of the five people in front of it, and couldn't help but be vigilant.
Lin Fan had already experienced the conversation between Xuanwu and Qingjiao, so he was not surprised, but the other four were not as calm as him.
"Mom, can a donkey talk?", the really handsome hands kept patting his head.
"Am I fainting from hunger? Is this a hallucination?"
Sun Yingping closed his eyes and opened them again, hoping that the donkey was an illusion.
"What a fuss~~"
The donkey sneered at the five people in front of him, and then said, "I said, why did you come here? Could it be that the trial has begun? No, it seems that there is still a year before the trial."
Lin Fan remembered that Xuanwu told himself that as long as he reached the realm of the Earth Saint Period, then the so-called animals could also communicate with people, and some could even turn into human beings, but although he could not use spiritual power, he could perceive that the realm of this donkey was not much different from him, and he could also sense that this donkey was not malicious, and he was much more bold at the moment, and walked a few steps towards the donkey, and asked, "Eh, Brother Donkey, what do you call it?"
The donkey's right hoof shook at Lin Fan a few times, and said, "It's almost close, you human cultivators don't know how many monster cultivators we have killed, it's good if I didn't do anything with you."
At first, the donkey thought that the five people were transformed by monsters, so he jumped to the avenue without any scruples, never thinking that they were five human cultivators.
Si Jianren looked at the sturdy donkey, drooled and whispered to Sun Yingping: "I see that this donkey has a lot of meat, why don't you take it down and slaughter it and eat donkey meat."
This donkey is also the same as the five people, it has a body of spiritual power but can't use it, but its hearing can be said to be extremely keen, and it said angrily at the moment: "Little Wang Ba calf, do you still want to eat your donkey grandfather? Come on, come on, see if I kick you to death with a hoof."
Lin Fan's eyes rolled a few times, and said with a smile: "Meeting is fate, my brother loves to joke, this donkey brother, can you please tell us where this road leads, and why can't you exert spiritual power?"
The donkey glanced at Lin Fan in surprise, this was the first time it had met a human cultivator who was so polite to him, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Your doll attitude is not bad, to say that you humans are indeed blessed, Grandpa Donkey, I have only cultivated for hundreds of years, and I have only been in my twenties, looking at your appearance, I am only a little heavy heaven, and I am only a little heavy heaven away from Grandpa Donkey, let the person with the roe head rat come over and apologize to Uncle Ben, maybe Grandpa Donkey I am in a good mood, so I will tell you what I want to know."
Hearing that he was asked to apologize, Si Jianren hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, you donkey is ashamed, if it weren't for the restriction of my spiritual power, I would have peeled your skin as a leather coat to wear, and roasted your meat to satisfy my hunger."
"Little rabbit cub, you dare to be so arrogant even after limiting your spiritual power, believe it or not, Grandpa Donkey, I kicked your corpse apart?"
The donkey stared at the big donkey eyes, and pointed at Si Jianren with the bowl of hooves with a big mouth on his front left hoof.
"I ......"
When Si Jianren was about to open his mouth to fight back, he was dissuaded by Lin Fan.
"Don't make trouble, go and apologize obediently, we need to know where this road leads, and we also need to know why we can't use our spiritual power", Lin Fan whispered in Si Jianren's left ear.
Si Jianren blushed with a face, and it was unheard of to apologize to a donkey, but at the moment they really urgently needed to know the reason, and after thinking about it for a while, he walked a few steps towards the donkey, holding back a face and saying word by word: "Yes~~~No~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey~~ That's right."
The donkey showed a donkey-like smile, Si Jianren saw that the donkey was actually smiling at him, so he simply showed his back to the donkey, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to stand it and fight with the donkey.
Lin Fan patted Si Jianren on the shoulder, smiled at the donkey, and said, "Then can you tell me now?"
The donkey shook its head twice and said, " Walking along this avenue for 5,000 miles is the city of the demon capital, where it is the city of monsters, just like the downtown of your human beings, there are very few humans in the city of the demon capital, and it can even be said that there are not a few, of course, you can also go, the city of the demon capital has rules, whether it is a human or a monster, you must not do it when you come to this city, because the city of the demon capital lives a few high-level demons, and if you dare to fight in the city of the demon capital, you will be captured by the big demon and be punished, as for why the spiritual power is limited, it is because there is a huge formation in the city of the demon capital, so that the monsters and humans in the city of the demon capital cannot use spiritual power, except for those big demons, the closer to the city of the demon capital, the more serious the restriction is, it's just because of the influence of the formation, okay, I'll just say this, goodbye, no, never again!"
When the donkey passed by Si Jianren, the donkey gave him a blank look, and then spread its four hooves and ran forward.
When the figure of the donkey disappeared, Sun Yingping said to Lin Fan: "I see that this donkey has many white eyes and few black eyes.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Fan smiled and said, "I don't think so, although this donkey doesn't want to see us, I can be sure that it didn't lie to us."
Situ Ming wondered, "Big brother, why are you so sure?"
"Don't divulge the secret of heaven, and you'll understand later"
Lin Fan said with a smile, he is already a cultivator in the Three Crossing Period, he can feel the fluctuations of the aura between heaven and earth within a certain distance, and he can also feel the fluctuations of everything in this distance, when this donkey talks to him, the fluctuation of his voice is stable, so he can be so sure that the donkey did not lie to him, as for why he didn't tell the four sworn brothers, it was because he wanted the four brothers to find out for themselves, and they couldn't all rely on him alone.
Zhen Yingjun looked ahead and said, "Then are we going to keep going?"
Lin Fan replied firmly: "Let's go, why don't you go, as long as we settle down, there will be no trouble, let's rest, let's go~~"
The sunlight shone through the shade of the trees on both sides of the avenue, and with the sound of frolicking, the five of them set off again towards the so-called demon capital city to explore and understand the mystery of the eternal forest.
......
Shangguan Xuan, the disciple of Jian Mingchen, the master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect of the Purple Star Sect in the past, and the junior disciple of Qi Ming, the great apprentice of Jian Mingchen, when the Fire Sect and the Zhenglei Sect attacked the Ten Thousand Swords Gate, Shangguan Xuan happened to be in the Red Dust Trial, and he escaped because of this.
For Shangguan Xuan, a thirty-year-old eightfold heaven cultivator in the god transformation period, the Ten Thousand Swords Gate is his everything, the place where he grew up from childhood to adulthood, for him, the Ten Thousand Swords Gate is not only a sect, but also a home worthy of his protection.
However, his home no longer exists, and his master, uncle, and all the brothers and sisters, except for the dozen or so disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who escaped the Red Dust Trial, otherwise they all died at the hands of the Lihuo Sect and the Zhenglei Sect.
Finding a secluded place, Shangguan Xuan and his junior disciples endured for more than three years, found several small sects that had received the favor of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and after some conspiracy, looked for the disciples of the Ethereal Sect, the Lihuo Sect and the Zhenglei Sect in the mortal city.
Every time he found a lone disciple of the Three Great Sects, Shangguan Xuan would cut off his limbs, and when he was discovered by Gu Feng, he had already stabbed more than thirty disciples of the Three Great Sects.
On the ground of a small hill, there are more than a dozen corpses lying horizontally and vertically, these corpses are Shangguan Xuan's junior disciples, on all sides of the small hill and in the sky, there are disciples of the three major sects, Shangguan Xuan is holding a three-foot silver sword, looking at the ancient wind in front of him, the corners of his mouth are constantly coughing blood, and he smiled miserably: "Master, the apprentice can only do it here, but unfortunately I can't kill Zhang Chenfeng, the old thief, to avenge you."
"Even if I turn into a ghost, I won't let you go"
Shangguan Xuanyuan glared, and the silver sword in his hand pierced into his chest, passed through his heart, and then leaked out of his back.
"When is the time for retribution?"
Gu Feng sighed and said, if Jian Mingchen had handed over Pan Dacheng back then, then the matter would not have developed to this point, looking at the corpses of the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect on the ground, Gu Feng beckoned to several Ethereal Sect disciples behind him, and said, "Dig a pit and bury them here."
"Senior brother, I don't understand why ......"
An Ethereal Sect disciple behind Gu Feng asked, as Gu Feng's junior disciple, he didn't understand why he buried these people.
Gu Feng replied indifferently: "The same is true of the world, everything has flowed in ancient times, get them a stele, no need to write an inscription, the so-called dust to dust, soil to earth"
After Gu Feng finished speaking, he sighed and left the small hill without looking back.
The Ethereal Sect disciple who had just spoken was confused and muttered to himself: "Bury people, bury people, what kind of verses, except for the wordless tablet, I don't understand a word at all."
