Chapter 57: The Old Woman
The Twilight Valley, located in the depths of the mountain range where the Hidden Dragon Sect is located, is inhabited by countless demon beasts, and these demon beasts are much more brutal than the demon beasts in other places.
Perhaps because the Hidden Dragon Sect had occupied all the peaks of this mountain range, the demon beasts had no choice but to retreat into the dim and damp valley, and these demon beasts would infest the Hidden Dragon Sect in groups from time to time.
Most of the hunting tasks of the Hall of Merit are to hunt the demon beasts on the periphery of the valley, mainly to train the disciples, and secondly, to curb the number of demon beasts and prevent them from invading endlessly.
"It's so dark here. Hua Zisheng looked vigilantly at the twilight valley that could not be seen, thinking that the task of the Hidden Dragon Sect was really interesting, the simplest tasks had to be carried out in such a dark place, if the timid came here, they would be scared to death.
In the huge valley, the sound did not travel far, as if swallowed by something, it disappeared without a trace, and there was not even a single echo.
Regarding this abnormal point, Hua Zisheng just frowned, and didn't think much about it, this dark and depressing place was already very abnormal, and it didn't seem too strange that there was no echo.
After continuing to walk forward for an hour or so, Hua Zisheng's footsteps also stopped, and he didn't meet any fellow disciples or even living beings along the way, which couldn't help but make him feel creepy.
"The demon beasts on the periphery won't all be hunted. Hua Zisheng frowned, always feeling a gust of wind blowing behind him, but when he turned around, he didn't find anything.
Just when Hua Zisheng didn't know what to do, a hoarse voice sounded behind him, "Young man, do you need help?"
This sudden voice almost didn't startle Hua Zisheng, he turned around with some difficulty, and saw an old woman with a pale face standing not far away looking at him.
"May I ask who the seniors are?" Hua Zisheng arched his hand and asked tentatively.
"Senior, you have lifted up the old woman and me, I am just a mortal. The old woman shook her head and said slowly.
"Why did that senior appear in such a dangerous place?" Hua Zisheng asked, he did find that this old woman did not have the slightest fluctuation of vitality, even her eyes were cloudy, no different from mortals.
"Dangerous place, do you mean here?" the old woman stared at Hua Zisheng and suddenly smiled, with her miserable white face, it was really a little scary.
Hua Zisheng nodded and didn't say anything, although this old woman looked extremely ordinary, it made him feel extremely uncomfortable and even depressed.
"Young man, you are confused, I have lived here for most of my life, and I have not found any danger. The old woman was on crutches and slowly approached Hua Zisheng, her eyes always on Hua Zisheng.
As the old woman approached, the feeling of depression in Hua Zisheng's heart became stronger and stronger, and even bred a trace of boredom, but he still forcibly suppressed it, "Senior, the twilight valley is rampant with demon beasts, how can it not be dangerous." ”
"Demon beast, what kind of demon beast? Have you seen it along the way?" The old woman had already walked in front of Hua Zisheng, her cloudy eyes staring at Hua Zisheng.
Hua Zisheng shook his head, indeed, he had never encountered any demon beasts along the way, but how could there be no demon beasts in the twilight valley, and all kinds of mysteries in the meantime made Hua Zisheng puzzled.
And who is this old woman in front of him, who actually said that she lives in this place, which can't help but make him feel a lot of vigilance in his heart.
"Hehe, I'm a bad old woman, I can't be restrained, and being too me will make you feel bad. The old woman seemed to see that Hua Zisheng had been wary of herself, but she didn't care at all, "It's not early, although there is nothing here during the day, but it is not necessarily at night, if you can trust the old woman and me, go to my house to avoid it first." ”
With that, the old woman was about to leave on crutches, and the moment she turned around, her cloudy eyes flashed with a hint of essence.
Seeing the figure of the old woman gradually walking away, Hua Zisheng hesitated for a while and followed, it is not a matter for him to wander around in this strange valley, so he can only do this first, as long as he is vigilant.
After a long time, Hua Zisheng followed the old woman to a thatched house, at this time the sky had been completely swallowed up by darkness, in the endless darkness, only the light in front of the thatched house was gently swaying.
I have to say that the valley does not see daylight during the day, only a little light enters, and you can barely see it, but at night, you really can't see your fingers, and it is pitch black.
What surprised Hua Zisheng even more was that the old woman was obviously walking towards the side of the valley, but she had not encountered the mountain wall after walking for so long, which made him have deeper doubts in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little panicked in his heart, knowing that he was only a teenager in his early sixteens.
"Grandma, are you back?"
At the moment when the old woman and Hua Zisheng stepped into the thatched house, a light voice came out of the thatched house, and then a white figure walked up to the old woman with small steps, holding the old woman's hand with a happy face.
The white face, the beautiful face, the just right curvature, the smooth long hair, and the simple and simple white long skirt made Huazi think that he was Bai Ling.
This girl's appearance is actually the same as Bai Ling's, it is worth mentioning that her temperament is very similar to Bai Ling's, giving people the feeling that she is the kind of cute and simple sister next door.
However, the only difference between Bai Ling and this girl is that Bai Ling has an evil charm on his body, perhaps because of the influence of the killing power, when the killing power is completely released, the feeling is even worse, but the Bai Ling in that state, Hua Zisheng only saw it in the illusion, and the girl in front of him seemed extremely pure.
"Girl, this young man is going to stay at home for a while, you talk to him, and I'll tidy up the empty room. The old woman smiled and patted the girl's hand, and then walked towards the thatched hut.
"Hello. This is the second time he has seen such a girl with such a rebellious face, but he didn't look at it much, in his heart, Bai Ling is the most beautiful.
The fact is also the same, this girl can only be on par with Bai Ling in terms of appearance at most, not to mention liking a person, not just looking at her appearance.
"Poof......
"What are you laughing at?" Hua Zisheng looked at the girl a little helplessly, just said hello to herself, why couldn't she help laughing.
"It's nothing, my name is Su Yuxin, what's your name, big brother?" Su Yuxin put her hands behind her back, and looked at Hua Zisheng curiously with a pair of ethereal beautiful eyes.
"Hua Zisheng, may I ask Miss Yuxin, have you always lived here?" Hua Zisheng didn't feel any discomfort at Su Yuxin's simple and curious gaze, what he was most concerned about now was this family.
The more he felt that this so-called Twilight Valley was very strange now, didn't it mean that the twilight valley was rampant with monsters? After walking for a day, he didn't encounter anything, but he came across such a family.
Su Yuxin nodded and said, "Well, we've lived here for generations. ”
"What about your parents?"
