Chapter 283: A Small Town Woman

When the group returned to the road, Shen Long did not test his sword intent, and he already had some numbers in his heart, so naturally there was no need to do his best. After all, it is now in an environment surrounded by monsters. Any carelessness can cause a lot of trouble.

For ten days in a row, they went forward without any danger. The most dangerous time was when I encountered a level 6 monster. Although there are not many demon beasts of this level in Benjamin Mountain, it is absolutely normal to encounter one. It's just that fortunately, the attack of the demon beast is not strong, and it is a little afraid of Shen Long's people, so when Shen Long and the others took the initiative to retreat, the demon beast did not pursue.

"At our current rate, it will take more than two months to get out of here. Gu Shun looked at the dense jungle in front of him and sighed softly. In fact, at the speed of a yogi, even if Tian Minshan is large, it won't take much time. However, due to the large number of demon beasts here, several people did not dare to mention speed completely, as it was extremely easy to ignore the surrounding conditions. If there are monsters waiting nearby, the situation will be very dangerous.

"Hey, what's that?"

Liu Jin stood on a tree branch and pointed to the strange path ahead. Strips of dark stone are arranged in neat rows, one on top of the other, with a small pond in the middle. There is nothing in it, but the color is a little strange compared to the surrounding stones, as if it has been infected by something.

"It was an altar. How could Tian Minshan have such a thing?" Gu Shun walked up to him and frowned. There was some disgust between the two words, but at the same time there was a little awe.

"Altar?" Morin and the others didn't understand, this was the first time they had seen such a small building. The first time I saw this altar, a strange emotion brewed in my heart. It's weird and puzzling.

"Worshipping the gods is a peculiar kind of practitioner who is different from us practitioners. Usually we call them mages. Shen Long said with a smile, Gu Shun looked at it with some surprise, obviously didn't expect Shen Longlian to know this. As practitioners, mages usually do not practice true qi. They belong to a rather unorthodox farming method, so they are rarely seen in the field of practice. Most people don't know about this kind of cultivator, Gu Shun only saw it in an ancient book by chance.

Gu Shun found that he was more and more unable to see through Shen Long, before such a powerful knife broke out, it was enough to prove its talent, but in Benjamin's country, Gu Shun had never heard of a young genius who was Shen Longlong's touch. The chances of a scattered repair are very slim unless there is an adventure and a full inheritance.

"Is there really a God in this world?" Liu Jin said in amazement, the yogi only respect themselves and have no faith.

"I don't know if there are, but I've heard that wizards use the power of gods, and most of them are evil gods, and the space where evil gods live is different from ours. Therefore, if you want to use the power of these evil gods, the mage needs to prepare in advance and even sacrifice something to generate enough energy for the arrival of these evil gods. ”

Shen Long remembered what he had seen in the ancient books, and he was also surprised when Shen Long knew that there were such yogis in this world. Therefore, the mage does not practice true qi. All power comes from the so-called gods. The more they come, the stronger the god they pray to, and the more benefits they will receive.

Even ancient books record unsubstantiated rumors. It is said that there was a scrawny man who joined a sect to practice. As a result, he was not saved and was even often bullied. Later, he was dragged into the whirlpool and was seen as the culprit.

I don't know if it was luck or what, I finally escaped to heaven and happened to get the exercises practiced by the mage. This man is also a strong-willed person. Except for his poor bones, everyone else is top-notch in terms of intellect and intelligence. But this man relied on this strategy of unifying the law, and after a deliberate sacrifice, he was brought to the attention of a powerful evil god.

I don't know what kind of method it is, this man made Baal's statue very popular, and transformed this man at the cost of divine power, and finally directly reached the power equivalent to the eighth order to the yuan. How long does it take for an ordinary person to train to the eighth grade? There is no mention of the 8th rank, the 6th order alone has stopped countless people, but that person has reached the 8th rank overnight and has become the most powerful person in the world.

The latter thing is that the man returns to the sect for revenge. At the time, many people in the faction still remember this man. At first, they still made fun of him. However, when the sacrifice was successful, the combat power soared to the eighth-order return element, which almost scared people stupid. Naturally, there is no need to say anything more about what happened later.

The compilers of ancient books discussed the matter with relish. After all, compared to the long and heavy True Qi cultivation cycle, a mage could ascend to heaven step by step. As long as he can find a powerful god and be favored, the benefits will be greater than any adventure.

However, everything is directly proportional to giving and receiving. Mage is also not a profitable way to practice. Otherwise, today's mainstream approach to practice should be like this, rather than in the true spirit of practice. There is no detailed description of the shortcomings in the ancient books, but Shen Long could guess that it was easier to pray to God than to send him, and in the end he was swallowed up.

After all, compared to true qi cultivators, the mage was too poor, both physically and mentally, and there was no resistance in the face of the terrifying power of the evil god. That is, life and death are completely in the hands of the other party. Maybe the soul is in a bad mood and will kill you. You don't have a place to argue.

"What will happen if Qi State cultivation and sacrifice are combined?" A strange thought suddenly popped into Shen Long's mind.

Gu Shun explained the simple situation of the mage's cultivation on the side, and listened to Mo Lin's hearts flutter. The feeling of one step to the sky is so tempting, even if it's hard to refuse.

"Don't overthink things. It's best to practice step by step and be down-to-earth!" Gu Shun couldn't help but curse in a low voice when he saw the looks of the two.

"Yes, I understand. Lin Mo saw that Gu Shun was displeased, and hurriedly replied obediently. On the contrary, Huang Yangxin did not belong to God, and he didn't know what to think, seeing Gu Shun shaking his head.

"Why don't we go up and have a look?" Huang Yang said suddenly, looking at the altar as if he was in a hurry to try.

"I'm afraid it's strange to have an altar in such a place. Now we'd better not get involved anymore. Shen Long said, the position of the altar had an aura that made Shen Long uncomfortable, and his intuition should not be approached.

"It's just a look. What are the implications?" Huang Yang glanced at Shen Long and sneered.

"Don't get into any trouble now, and have as little contact with evil spirits as possible. I don't know how many mages are crazy. You should also be careful if you encounter such a practitioner in the future. Gu Shun shook his head and said that he was from another place. Shen Long and the others followed him. Only Huang Yang couldn't stop thinking, but Gu Shun objected. Huang Yang didn't dare to disobey, so he could only follow.

The group gradually walked away, and after a few people walked away, the almost dilapidated altar suddenly showed a slight fluctuation. A circle of energy spreads out, and what appears to be a disordered slate floats, and a pair of eyes appear on the upper part of the slate. With the human eye, I imagine that it is particularly strange to put it on a stone just now.

A black shadow rose in the middle of the altar, flashing red, as if looking at Shen Long and the others from a distance, the scarlet hair stood on end, and he was a little scared in his heart.

Shen Long and the others did not notice the situation in the rear. All their attention is focused on the movement around them. This has been going on for so many days. Only in this way can we ensure our own safety. Everything stops and goes, avoiding several waves of demon beasts, what really can't be avoided is a thunderous blow, and then Shen Long uses the power of frost to seal it, and the physical body will naturally cover up.

"It's not early, we should find a ......" Lin Mo had just left, and suddenly found Shen Long staring into the distance. Most of Mo Lin's attention was now focused on Shen Long. When Shen Long makes any movement, she can react immediately. Only then will she be able to hunt better.

Others also noticed something strange about Shen Long. They all turned to look at it. They spotted a dark shadow in the distance. They looked at the outline of a small town. Is there a small town in Tianminshan? It's hard to imagine how powerful it would be to keep the town alive in a monster-infested environment.

"Would you like to go and see it?" asked Liu Jin softly.

"It's not early, we have to find a place to rest, otherwise it's too dangerous to travel at night. But the town is now so close to us, I'm afraid you'll be upset if you don't check it out. Shen Long said, and everyone else nodded. Next to the bed, there was no place for anyone else to sleep. Such an unknown town appeared, so they could not turn a blind eye. Unless they are willing to leave this place overnight, all dangers must be explored. Hua Heng College

"It's not early, we'll be faster. Gu Shun whispered that he was the first to rush out. Gu Shun's level is the highest. It was most appropriate to carve out a path for him, and Shen Long was the last one to stop other situations from happening.

The yogi can let go of himself as quickly as possible, he can pass several kilometers away, and when he gets closer, all of them can finally see what the town looks like. It was cold and deserted, and a stone door stood outside, which should have been uncleaned for too long, and now it was corroded by wind and rain.

The houses in the town can be clearly seen from the outside. Many of them are in ruins, and only some are intact. Gu Shun hesitated for a moment, sprinkled a ball of powder, and drifted into the town with the wind. The aura fluctuated, and no other strange things happened, indicating that this was just an ordinary town, but it was located in the Tianmin Mountains, and it was not ordinary no matter how you looked at it.

"Go in and have a look. You're stalking me. Gu Shun cautiously walked forward. The real elements in the body are constantly flowing. As long as there is any abnormality, Gu Shun can react immediately. Shen Long looked around and found that the knife had not been pre-refined. He thought it was safe and came here. He can't back down and leave.

A few people walked through the stone gate, the city had some smell of decay, it was produced by the fermentation of wood for a period of time, and there were some warnings at first, just walked a distance, and even entered some houses, without noticing the abnormality, without relaxing, this is a city that has been abandoned for a long time.

"Look, there's a stone tablet." Lin Mo saw the black stone pillar erected in front of her. Her body flickered and she came to a nearby place. She only saw the contents of the stone pillars. Lin Mo frowned. She couldn't understand the words.

Gu Shun and a few people walked over and frowned when they saw the content on the stone tablet. These characters resemble hieroglyphs, but what's even stranger is that they are supposed to be characters that no one has been able to understand for a long time. Shen Long looked at the stone tablet carefully, Shen Long had some impressions of this kind of text, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Computer, check the text on the stele."

Voice Assistant: "New Task... Search for data... Doesn't exactly match the text. Depending on the composition of the text, 30% of them are likely to be Nicaraguan and 20% may be Afford. ”

Shen Long frowned, there was only a 20% to 30% probability, which could be ruled out. No one could understand the stele, so they had to keep exploring the town. The city is really small, but after a while everyone checked it out and found nothing out of the ordinary. It was a pile of ruins. Even people have found many traces of demon beasts. They thought a monster had been here, but then they were all gone.

"Nothing out of the ordinary, and it's been abandoned for a long time. Of these, only those all-stone houses have survived intact, the others have rotted. Liu Jin said in a low voice.

"There doesn't seem to be any danger, so now we can rest assured. Lin Mo said with a smile, looking relaxed.

"I've found some traces of arrays outside of town before. I think there should have been some experts here at first, but now this place has not yet become a world of monsters. Again, arrays are still playing a role. The smell it gives off makes monsters not like it, so they avoid it. "That's right, Gu Li.

"Then let's spend the night here. There are fewer monsters, and we're safer. Huang Yang hinted that he had been living on the streets. For a person like him who has been practicing in this sect, he is a little too uncomfortable, and he must leave most of his soul outside at night so as not to be unaware of the attack of the demon beast.

"I have that idea too," Merlin agreed, saying that I hadn't seriously washed it in a long time. This is unacceptable for women. Mo Lin now wants to hunt down Shen Long. Naturally, he intends to make himself look better.

Liu Jin was also on the sidelines, unable to wash and rest calmly, which was really a pain. However, compared to Morin and other countries, Liu Jin is undoubtedly much stronger. After all, in the recent period, Liu Jin and Shen Long have experienced too many things.

Gu Shun looked at a few people, knowing what they thought, and couldn't help but shake his head. But the town seems really safe now, and as long as he activates some of the outer positions, he can greatly increase the protection here. At least it was absolutely impossible for the demon beasts to approach them quietly.

Compared to backcountry camping, it is naturally safer and more comfortable. Gu Shun is naturally not afraid of difficulties, but it is indeed a good choice to spend the night here. Gu Shun had no reason to object.

When night fell, they chose a relatively sturdy house to live in. Shen Long was in charge of the food, while Liu Jin and the others were cleaning. After all, no one has been cleaning up for too long. The environment is a bit too bad.

"Maybe we can rest here for a while and move on. Huang Yang leaned comfortably against the wall. There's no need to worry about monsters. Huang Yang is more relaxed and comfortable than ever. After all, we should be vigilant for the past ten days or so, day or night. That's just too little now.

Gu Shun neither agreed nor objected. He had long found that Huang Yang and the others were in too tense state, and they would get better in the short term, but if it lasted for a long time, it would definitely affect him. However, it will take a long time to get out of the Tien Min Mountains and reach the submerged country. It's a good idea to rest and adjust right now.

"Ahh

Suddenly, a scream came, and it was Morin who listened. Morin was always a dignified lady and rarely made such a sound.

"What's the matter, Sister Lin!" Liu Jin asked curiously, coming out of the other room.

Gu Shun had already rushed up, Shen Long followed closely behind, just in time to see Lin Mosheng looking at the room in horror, unconsciously retreating backwards, Gu Shun stepped forward and pulled the person out directly. Lin Mo showed a panicked look on his face, and his face turned pale.

"Why, what happened?" Huang Yang went up.

"Are you alright?" asked Liu Jin in a low voice, looking around, nothing strange happened. Several people were together, especially Gu Shun beside him, Lin Mo's spirit finally relaxed a little, but it was only some, the whole person was very nervous at the moment, and his whole body was tense.

"Inside!" Morin pointed to the room she had passed before. "As I was packing up, I turned around and saw a woman lying on her back. Something had bitten her whole body. Her face was less than halfway there, and blood was still dripping. She's smiling at me. ”

Looking back at the scene just now, Maureen's face turned pale again, and there was a slight tremor between his words. Gu Shun frowned, turned around and walked into the room. There was indeed a bed inside, but there were no women. The sheets were very clean, a bit too clean.

"It's nothing, Sister Lin. Have you been too tired lately, wrong?" Huang Yang said strangely, still walking around, no exception.

"How could you be wrong? It's really there. Lin Mo said loudly.

"Well, let's not talk about that. It could be a ghost. Gu Shun said in a deep voice, Shen Long's brows furrowed slightly, it is difficult to clean up things like ghosts, but fortunately, the Heavenly Realm Sect is the best at thunder methods, if there is anything, it will be fine.

Lin Mo was absent-minded, but Liu Jin was relatively indifferent, she was born as Lei Xiu, she really wanted to open her eyes to see ghosts, and she could solve everything with a direct Lei Fa.
