Chapter Twenty-Three: The Lonely Mountain Town
In the dark night, on the edge of the woods, a bonfire rises, holding the hind legs of a beast, and the golden grease falls on the tinder, and there is a 'squeak' sound, and the rich smell of meat is wafting. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"There are a total of twenty-seven essence stones on these acquired people, as well as some ordinary wound medicines and poisons, as well as a few bottles of ointment that I don't know the purpose of."
Ruo Youqing counted the loot in front of her, her face was full of loss, and when she looked up at Luo Shao, she was a little 'resentful'.
"There are a total of one hundred and thirty-three fine stones, and the other things are ordinary, and the most valuable ones should be these two storage magic weapons, which should be worth about two hundred fine stones together."
After a pause, Luo Shao added; "After all, if you are a cultivator, your net worth is naturally richer than that of a person who is perfected the day after tomorrow."
When you hear it, you are indignant; "It seems that I have to work hard to break through, and I can get so many things just by going out for a walk, which is much easier than looking for it in the mountains by myself."
But it's also dangerous ...
Luo Shao was silent, in this world, how many things can be easier and faster than killing people and selling goods? Despite the dangers, there are still countless creatures who are willing to take risks, and if they succeed, they may save more than ten or even decades of hard work, and if they fail, they will make all efforts cheaper for the attacked.
"By the way, do you have any plans for where to go?"
Ruoyou is eating barbecue and asks.
After thinking about it, he said; "A hundred miles later, there is a mountain range, which is more suitable for us now."
Before leaving, Luo Shao spent several days, constantly flipping through various bone books, and was familiar with the land controlled by the Xuanjian Sect, and also drew up a few routes for use as an experience.
"Rest for the night and leave tomorrow morning."
Luo Shao said.
The great wilderness in the night is undoubtedly the most dangerous, and Rao is a powerful cultivator who does not want to rush at this moment.
This night seemed to be a bit long, unable to cultivate, unable to sleep, vigilantly watching the surroundings to prevent possible dangers.
In such a night, in the early morning of the second day, the two of them were inevitably a little tired, but they still set off on the road and headed for their destination.
What's in the Great Wilderness?
There are countless mountain ranges, countless ancient forests, and only a few Terran cities, and only a dozen within a few thousand miles.
Everywhere is full of dangers, fierce birds and beasts are only the weakest existence, in the countless ancient forests and mountains, there are even more desolate beasts that can compete with cultivators, and the strong can tear the heavens and the earth with a single movement.
Luo Shao and Ruoyou set off, walking outside, danger is almost every day, sometimes encounter a powerful beast, a sharp claw is as huge as a mountain, suddenly shoot down, a radius of several miles shock, just the aftermath, they are seriously injured, recuperation for several days to recover, sometimes there will also be human attackers, sneak attack in the shadows, like a poisonous snake, trying to kill with one blow.
For more than a month, they had traveled more than 200 miles, and they had encountered too many dangers, and the wound medicine prepared in advance on their bodies was almost useless, so they could only find suitable herbs in the ancient forests and mountains, and because they had to avoid danger and treat their injuries, their speed of progress slowed down.
A small town, built outside a mountain range, the loess whistling in the wind, but it can't hide the people who are constantly coming in and out.
Lonely Mountain Town, a small town that stands like a lonely mountain outside the dangerous mountain range, has existed for hundreds of years, has been attacked by too many powerful desolate beasts, but has never died out, and within a radius of thousands of miles guarded by the Xuanjian Sect, in terms of fame, it is not weaker than more than a dozen big cities.
Two voices appeared outside the Lonely Mountain Town, like the others, with wind and dust on their bodies, their clothes stained with blood, and a bloody murderous aura followed.
These two figures, naturally Luo Shao and Ruoyou, in the past two months, they have crossed three hundred miles, encountered all kinds of crises, and finally came here at this moment and arrived at the destination planned earlier.
"It's finally here."
Looking at the town not far away, Luo Shao muttered to himself, with a sense of ease.
In the past two months, there are too many dangers encountered, they are always vigilant, walking carefully, and now, finally come to the destination, as long as they enter the town, they can rest assured.
This town, since it suddenly appeared hundreds of years ago, has a set of iron laws, one of which is that no one is allowed to do anything in it, if you hurt someone, you will die!
And these iron laws have been verified countless times over the centuries, so even some of them are even disciples of the Xuanjian Sect, they don't dare to offend.
Walking into the town, the degree of prosperity made Luo Shao and the others sigh, not inferior to Xuanjian City, or even more victorious, the shops on both sides of the street are full of all kinds of spiritual materials and weapons, and even some food shops are selling food made of the flesh and blood of wild beasts.
People come and go, all of them are adventurers, the lowest is the realm of perfection the day after tomorrow, but more of them are cultivators, and they can often be seen, hurrying past with a strong murderous aura, going back and forth between various shops.
In the middle of the town, there is a single inn, large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.
In the lobby of the inn, many adventurers sat down, drinking spirits, and loudly boasting about their experiences, or what they had seen and heard in the past, and it was also very lively, while some of the men shuttled between each table, delivering prepared drinks and food.
"You two, do you want to eat or stay overnight?"
A woman asked softly as she stood behind the counter, looking at both of them with a look of curiosity.
"Two rooms, long stay."
Luo Shao said that although he was young, he already had a kind of calmness in his body.
Hearing this, the woman smiled slightly, flipped through the animal skin book in front of her, and then spoke aloud; "Little Er, take the two of you to the two rooms on the fourth floor of the east floor."
"In addition, there are ten fine stones here in a month, and the long-term stay will be paid for four months."
In this regard, the two naturally had no opinion, and after taking out eighty fine stones, someone came over, and asked the two to accompany them, and after a short time, they were led outside the two empty rooms, and slowly retreated after a few polite words.
Pushing open the door, there are already a few side dishes in it, a bucket of hot water in the corner, and clean clothes.
The side dishes on the table are secondary, but the hot water is a bright spot for Luo Shao's eyes, nearly two months of hurrying, under the shroud of many crises, naturally there is no time to boil water to wash, so the two of them have already had a strange smell on their bodies, and the skin is even more greasy and filthy, which is very uncomfortable.
Closing the door, he quickly took off his clothes, jumped into the bucket of hot water, washed himself well, and when he put on his clean clothes, he found that this inn was really thoughtful, because the clothes prepared actually fit perfectly.
Knock knock~~~
There was a knock at the door, and Ruoyou pushed the door in, and came with a few side dishes, she had obviously washed up, and there were drops of water in her hair.
"This town, I have heard of it among the tribe, is very famous in the territory guarded by the Xuanjian Sect, not weaker than a few big cities, and even more victorious, for us, the periphery of the mountain range not far away can be used for training."
Ruoyou ate side dishes and said relaxedly.
Luo Shao listened to the sound while sitting down and eating a few bites of side dishes, and then said; "But you also have to be careful, there is an iron law in the town, it is recorded in the bone book that no one dares to offend for one or two hundred years, but when you leave the town, even if you are at the door, you may be attacked and killed, and you will not violate the iron law."
Since he has taken this place as his destination and will experience it here, Luo Shao has naturally carefully read the classics and fully understood the rules of this place, although these rules are only on the surface.
"And when are we going to start going into the mountains?"
Ruo Youwen, his eyes were full of expectation, the so-called experience had actually begun from the moment they stepped out of the Xuanjian Sect, and now, it was the real opening of the path of blood and fire.
"The sooner the better!"
Luo Shao replied, with a glint in his eyes, looking forward to what was about to happen next.
Hearing this, Ruoyou smiled lightly and said; "Tomorrow, then."
"Good!"
Luo Shao also smiled and said; "But today, you have to prepare well, at least bring the real medicine that works."
When they set off from the Xuanjian Sect, both of them had prepared, but the wound medicine they brought was not of much use, they could only treat ordinary injuries, and the more serious ones were almost ineffective, and this time they naturally couldn't continue to do so.
