Chapter 49: Overnight Stay
"Little brother, tonight, you can rest in my shop first, and stay until tomorrow, if you walk so many hundred and eighty miles to the west, you should be able to reach Origin Mountain. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
When the sun sets, the twilight falls, but after a while, the bright moon is in the sky, the fireflies are dancing, and the frogs are singing, creating a quiet and harmonious atmosphere against the background of the stars.
At the foot of the mountain, the lights of several inconspicuous inns were flickering, and at the counter of one of them, a figure with a bag on his shoulder stood in front of him, and the bright candlelight beside him emanated softly, illuminating his delicate face, and he, except for Wei Tian, who had just said goodbye to Dong Lao not long ago and officially started his training journey, who else was there?
And in front of him, in the counter, a person with a warm and kind face, who seemed to be the innkeeper, was sitting quietly in it, looking at it, the two of them were talking about something at this time.
"Even if I knew to go west, I still ...... Hey, it seems that this is the only way to plan for now...... Then there is the shopkeeper of Lao. ”
Wei Tian's appearance looked a little tired, sweat soaked the clothes on his chest, and his clean and flowing hair was also sticking to a little dirt and dust, he sighed slightly, and replied helplessly.
"Hehe, out of the way, out of the way, this is your room key, go straight upstairs from here, and you can find it."
However, the innkeeper didn't care about his sloppy-looking appearance at all, and after accepting the battle spirit coin given by Wei Tian, he smiled and took a silver glittering key from the wall behind the counter and handed it to the latter.
Obviously, Wei Tian was planning to stay here tonight, and the reason for this was that he felt miserable.
Since the day he said goodbye to Dong Lao, he had already left the lively areas around him, and walked outside this wilderness for three whole days, because he had to rush to his first place of training as soon as possible.
-- Origin Mountain.
This origin mountain, located in the northwest of the Tiangang war zone, although it is named after the mountain, but in fact, it can already be regarded as a city and county with a large area, compared to Tongshan County, where Weitian is located, although the population is slightly smaller, but the possibility of hiding the dragon and crouching tiger inside it is much higher than the former.
And the reason for this is because this origin mountain has one more thing that is extremely tempting for some people than other mountain forests: desolate beasts.
The Origin Mountain has a wide range, with the growth of many natural and earthly treasures, most of the low-level desolate beasts are fed on these plants that contain a lot of energy, and the complex terrain is also the condition for the desolate beasts to survive and reproduce, and even in its depths, there are some extremely powerful high-level desolate beasts, if they are targeted, they will end up with a tragic end of missing arms and broken hands, so most of these high-level desolate beasts are chilling.
But although there are many powerful desolate beasts lurking in the mountains and forests, if no one violates their territory, they will not take the initiative to attack, and in the outer range of the origin mountain, there are mostly some weaker desolate beasts, and those with a little strength can rely on their own ability to survive, therefore, many years ago, this was chosen by many people as a place to hunt desolate beasts in order to improve their strength, after all, cultivating combat power, only after actual combat, can they gain faster.
Over the years, in this area, there has also been another kind of profession - hunters, who form various sizes of hunting teams to hunt wild beasts, obtain materials on their bodies, and search for some elixirs and treasures in the mountains and forests for a living, therefore, near the origin mountain, there are also many market shops for people to trade nearby in exchange for anything they need.
......
......
Originally, Wei Tian was planning to enter the Origin Mountain and select some desolate beasts with similar strength to him to hunt alone, so as to improve his strength, for this reason, he wanted to rush there as soon as possible and repair near it, so he rushed for a full three days without stopping.
But since he discovered something, he also had to stop.
Because, he seems to be lost......
Although Wei Tian had prepared a map of this area in advance before he hurried away, it was a little embarrassing that after he had been turning around like a headless fly for the past three days, he found that the actual terrain was slightly different from what was described on the map, although his current location was close to the range of the Origin Mountain, but he could not rely on the information in this map to judge its specific location.
"This guy who sells fake pictures is really a mistake, damn it......"
Thinking back to the map he bought from the unscrupulous peddler before, Wei Tian couldn't help but curse in his heart, but after that, he also felt a little glad for himself, if he hadn't found it in time, he saw that this map was indeed unreliable, and he was lucky to meet some passers-by in the sparsely populated area, and asked them about the correct path, and then, he was lucky enough to find this inn for himself as a foothold, otherwise, he might really have to sleep in the open.
"Forget it...... After three days of traveling, it's really tiring, so I just go to sleep first, and then ask the shopkeeper tomorrow. ”
Lying lazily on the bed, yawning a little weakly, Wei Tian's eyelids drooped slightly, and he said to himself in his heart, although he wanted to fall asleep, but after seeing that the night was not dark, he decided to cultivate first, and then rest.
"Since the combat power competition, it seems that I haven't practiced much, so let's take advantage of the fact that it's still early, practice first and then sleep."
After making a decision in his heart, Wei Tian shook his head vigorously, the previous sleepiness had subsided a lot in an instant, he quickly got up, sat cross-legged on it, and slowly swiped his hands between them, condensing into a familiar imprint, and at the same time, the slow-flowing combat power in his body also suddenly accelerated its speed, and the strong power of heaven and earth, under the guidance of the former's mind, continued to follow the meridians all over his body, and integrated into every inch of his muscles and every cell......
"Hoo ......"
As a mouthful of filthy qi was spit out of his mouth, the current Wei Tian had slowly entered a state of cultivation.
......
......
This kind of cultivation lasted until midnight, until the bright moon was hidden by the clouds, and Wei Tian's cultivation came to an end temporarily, although he felt a little tired because of the wind and rain before, but after several hours of meditation and cultivation, his spirit has recovered a lot, the previous feeling of weakness is no longer there, and the somewhat thin combat power has become abundant again.
"Sure enough, the effect of cultivation is better......"
Feeling his state of returning again because of a solid cultivation, Wei Tian sighed a few words in his heart, then put the small burden he was carrying on the head of the bed, slowly took off the black robe he was wearing, stretched out his palm, carefully took out the spirit bowl placed in it, and tied it to his chest.
When you are away from home, you are not familiar with the place, and you must be prepared for the necessary defensive measures.
And just when Wei Tian wanted to stand up and go to the windowsill to wash his face, there was a slight knock on the door, but his body trembled slightly, his nerves tensed, and he quickly raised his vigilance, it was obvious that he had never met anyone here, and in the middle of the night, he really couldn't think of anyone who would have something to find.
The combat power that had just recovered from his body poured out from his palm again, Wei Tian's eyes locked on the closed door, and after taking a deep breath, he asked out of the door in a calm tone, "Who is it?" ”
......
......
"Little brother, it's me."
After a few breaths, the innkeeper's answer was also transmitted back in response, and this also made Wei Tian, who just wanted to use telekinesis to probe, breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't mean to open the door for him, but continued to stand next to the bed, and asked in a somewhat puzzled voice, "It turned out to be the shopkeeper, it's so late, what's the matter?" ”
"Hehe, little brother is quite vigilant, but it's okay, you can take precautions, and you can save us a lot of things."
"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
And the shopkeeper's answer only aggravated the doubts in Wei Tian's heart, and he immediately asked rhetorically.
"Little brother, do you know, these inns around us recently, after midnight, there are often thieves haunting, I have suffered a few times in this store, so, I hereby remind you to lock the doors and windows, in addition, if you find something wrong, please notify me quickly, so as not to suffer losses, the first few times the thieves, are using smoke and other means, you must pay attention to ......"
Although he was blocked by Wei Tian, the shopkeeper didn't mind, and explained very patiently, and for this kind reminder, Wei Tian finally dispelled the doubts in his heart, and said with a little gratitude, "I see, thank you for the reminder from the shopkeeper, I will pay attention to this kind of thing." ”
"Well, well, I won't disturb your rest."
The shopkeeper seemed to nod, and after a short while, Wei Tian heard his "crunch" sound as he walked down the stairs......
"I can't imagine that in this kind of place where there is no store in front of the village and no store, there will be people coming to steal things, but it's okay, it's always right to pay more attention when you're out alone."
Thinking back to all the things that the shopkeeper had reminded, the corners of Wei Tian's mouth lifted slightly upward, if the thief would use the smoke, it would prove his strength from the side, and it should not pose any threat to himself, thinking of this, he couldn't help but lower his head and set his eyes on the spirit bowl hanging on his chest, which was shining with a trace of blue light.
"Maybe, you can try this thing......"
