Chapter 123: Demon Village
When the wind was treacherous in Kyushu, the two things gambling center, Miaozhou Ming Province Valley, was peaceful.
Qingzhou Xuanqingmen and Zhongzhou Feng family were in trouble for a while, and the morality was untenable, and there were even a lot of accusations and even scolding in many places, and the many family sects united in Qingzhou on the strength of the two major families, the Cangzhou Li family and the Mianzhou Xue family, which ranked second and third, unexpectedly stood up to face each other.
Maybe it's because the two forces of Xuanqingmen and the Feng family, who are clearly determined to crusade against or even exterminate the Ming Province Valley, are in trouble and can't take care of themselves for a while, or maybe it's because the big forces know and are afraid of the relationship between Miaozhou and the demon clan, the Ming Province Valley Mountain Gate, which is located in Miaozhou, can still be regarded as calm except for some curious people who come to explore.
I just don't know how long this calm can last.
The Xuanqing Sect of Qingzhou has a mortal enmity with them, and will never give up, and the Feng family ......
None of them dared to look at this first family that had dominated the Kyushu continent for thousands of years.
Maybe it was just caught off guard by the Li family and the Xue family who had a sudden attack now, and it didn't have time to react for a while, but wait for enough time for it......
At least Xue Yun is very worried about the next situation.
Because no one in the valley of Ming Province knows what the reason for the Li family in Cangzhou and the Xue family in Mianzhou is against the Feng family, to what extent these two families will go, and whether they will fight the Feng family to the end.
If not......
Their peaceful days may soon come to an end.
During this period of time, the Ming Province Valley could not sit still, especially the two valley masters who knew the most and had the greatest ability.
For the first time, Xue Yuan thought of Shahai City.
The death of his father Xue Yu has been traced so far, and he learned from Shangguan Miao that the clues point to Shahai City. The filthy truth that was bigger than Yuan Che and Qing Yunjue, Xue Yu learned from the people of Shahai City.
And now, when Xue Yuan wanted to know more about Jiujing in Kyushu, he didn't talk to her about more demon clans, but Chengfeng also gave her a sentence, some things can go to Shahai City to find answers.
Qiaozhou Shahai City.
The second-rate forces in the Qiaozhou Territory are extremely low-key, if it weren't for the many cooperation with the Demon Palace, there would be many monks in the Kyushu Continent, and they would not even have heard of this name.
Shahai City is a city, not a family that arises by blood like the four major families, nor is it a sect like the Demon Palace's Xuanqing Sect that has set up a mountain gate to recruit disciples. The city of Shahai City is located in Qiaozhou, and the city lord is not hereditary, but changes every hundred years, and is jointly raised by many family forces who live in Shahai City.
I hadn't heard of any great monk power in Shahai City, and there were no treasures, but he had mastered the craft of making things such as the rare teleportation talisman. In addition to befriending the Demon Temple in Qiaozhou, Shahai City only does business with the Treasure Pavilion that is full of shops on the Kyushu continent.
Xue Yu was born in the Xue family in Mianzhou, and he has heard many stories about the big families on the Kyushu continent, but he knows very little about Shahai City, and the Li family's Li Yanran and Li Yanning sisters are the same. Li Yanran has always attached more importance to military cultivation, and she doesn't care much about these, and it's not surprising that she doesn't know, but Li Yanning also knows almost nothing about Shahai City, so she can see the attitude of the four major families towards Shahai City today.
But now......
She thought she needed to go to Shahai City to find new clues.
When the Miaozhou Jiujing feather pattern "Gu" character Xuantie plate, Gu Xi and Qingzhou Rongjia Rong Jin, Yuanzhou Yunzong a long time ago, the Feng family who stayed in Yuanzhou, and the altar guarded by the Feng family in Zhongzhou, these clues were connected together......
Xue Yu believes that perhaps the key to solving the doubts of many things lies in Rong Jin and Gu Xi.
The filthy story from a long time ago, the clues of the Gu family in Jiujing, Miaozhou, are all in Shahai City.
However, before going to Shahai City, Xue Yuan went to the village in the depths of the jungle in the south of Miaozhou, outside the secret land of Jiujing in Miaozhou.
Unexpectedly and reasonably, the maze on the periphery of the secret land has returned to the appearance of Xue Yun and Xiao Luo when they first came here, and the strength of isolation and blocking has been much looser.
Maybe it's because the most important thing they need to protect in the outlying villages is no longer there.
And it fell into the hands of Xue Yuan.
Enter the "key" of the secret place of Miaozhou Jiujing, and the feather pattern "Gu" character Xuantie card.
It's just that even if the maze has been weakened a lot, it is still a little troublesome for Xue Yuan, who Xiao Luo is not by his side at the moment, and he doesn't want to use the power of the origin to destroy the magic circle.
However, Xue Yuan didn't dwell on it for long, and she didn't need to break the formation and walk into this maze by herself.
Someone came inside, take her in.
The person who came was a stout man who was nearly two meters tall, and he looked a little fierce when he had a straight face, but when he spoke, he was a little naΓ―ve.
This person Xue Yu had seen before, and it was the demon clan that had helped them on the border of Qingzhou with Chengfeng, called Lantau Island.
Lantau walked in front of Xue Yuan, and his face was specially hung with two points that he felt polite, Xue Yuan felt a little hideous smile, and arched his hand towards Xue Yuan: "Lord Xue Gu, please follow me." β
Xue Yu was not frightened by Lantau Island, nodded his head and thanked him, followed behind Lantau and entered the village very smoothly through the maze.
This is the third time Xue Yuan has come here, but it is the first time he has seen the lively appearance of people here.
Maybe that's the real norm here.
It's not a lot of people, but it's also a bit noisy
The demon clans in the village didn't feel surprised to see Xue Yun appear here, and even many of them nodded slightly at her as a greeting, and then went about their own business.
Near the entrance to the stone pavement, there were two men who looked very sturdy, but a little worse than Lantau Lantau and were giggling and giggling with plank tools to repair the broken fence, which looked like it was ...... It looks like it's just damaged, and the wooden thorns at the fracture are quite fresh.
Lantau saw that Xue Yuan's gaze stayed there for a moment, and couldn't help but reach out and scratch his head, and then lowered his voice as much as possible and said: "Those two stinky people were sparring just now, okay, they didn't use demon power and spells, they just fought their fists and feet, they didn't go far, they were in that open space, who knew that they didn't break things by taking measure, and Lord Chengfeng asked them to fix it themselves." β
In addition to riding the wind, this was the first time Xue Yuan had spoken to other people of the demon clan.
"I see. Xue Yun nodded, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw two or three demon clans gathered together in the appearance of young women, picking and washing some fruits and vegetables, and another guarding a large iron pot, with a cautious face throwing the processed fish into the hot chatting oil......
Crackling and splashing oil splashed everywhere.
Fortunately, the people here are not ordinary people, and the body of the demon clan has always been the strongest, even if they don't dodge and avoid being doused with hot oil, nothing will happen.
It's just that......
Xue Yuan, who was walking along the stone road with Lantau Lantau, heard the wailing call, and the one who had not reacted was complaining to his companion that there was a hole in his clothes and had to be repaired......
Further on, a male demon who looked a little older and had a beard was half-lying on the ground with a straw mat in front of a wooden house, his head resting on his arms and squinting in the sun, and he was shaking a pu fan like many elderly ordinary people in his hand. It's just this fan...... I should have made it myself, and it looked a little shabby, and a little loose, as if it could be spread out by shaking it with a little more force.
Along the way, this village full of demon clans doesn't seem to be much different from the villages where ordinary people live in Kyushu.
The demon clan is extremely mysterious to the human race on the Kyushu continent, whether it is a monk or an ordinary person. Strong, long-lived, proud, cold, but ......
What I saw today broke Xue Yuan's impression of the demon clan.
In the previous encounter at the border of Qingzhou, the demon clan led by Chengfeng did not come into contact with the people in the Ming Province Valley, even if they were escorted all the way into Miaozhou and back to the Ming Province Valley Mountain Gate, they did not show the slightest closeness, so after that, most people, including Xue Yun himself, were still a little bound by the impression of the demon clan.
Just when Xue Yuan was sighing in his heart, Lantau who was walking in front stopped.
But Xue Yun didn't see where they went, after all...... The tall man in front of her was as tall as the mountain, and she was tightly covered in front of her vision, and Xue Yun did not let go of his consciousness out of politeness after entering the village......
However, where Lantau stopped, the entrance to the village was not too far, and it did not even go to the center of the village.
Xue Yuan originally thought that the place where Lantau led her to meet Chengfeng would be the depths of the village, close to the barrier of the Nine Wells Secret Land, and close to the old stone house, but who knew that Lantau would stop so quickly.
After Lantau stopped, although he didn't make a sound or knock on the door, as if he knew something, he arched his hand towards this wooden house that looked inconspicuous and had nothing special, and then took two steps to the side, and smiled at Xue Yuhan, who was blocked by him behind him: "Lord Xue Gu, please come in, Lord Chengfeng is waiting for you." β
After Lantau finished saying this, he didn't wait for Xue Yun to react, turned around and left, his pace was still a little brisk......
I just didn't know what Lantau was anxious about, and I didn't even react for a moment when I paid attention and walked away quickly from the stone road...... Xue Yuan, who was still standing on the stone road, clearly felt the tremor on Lin's face.
Soon, an angry roar came from the direction of the hut: "Bald bear! What are you crazy about?
Lantau's voice also came quickly, and his voice was much higher than when he talked to Xue Yuan before, and he seemed to be a little unconvinced: "Don't call me a bald bear! I'm not bald anymore!"
The sound of laughter and words sounded in the direction from which the voice came, and it was very lively, mixed with the roaring voice and Lantau voice from before, as if they were arguing about something, but ...... I didn't see any anger.
Xue Yun stood for a moment, turned around and walked into the wooden house next to the stone road.
Standing in the house, the windows of the wooden house are open, and the warm sunlight from the outside shines through, and it does not look dim.
The young man is tall and tall, and even when he is alone, he still adheres to his own rules and regulations, but he only rules himself, and does not use his own standards to demand from other people. His eyes flowed with silver shatters, as sharp as a falcon, but not sharp.
"Lord Xue Gu. β
"Fellow Rider of the Wind. β
After the two greeted each other, Xue Yuan got straight to the point:
"Last time Chengfeng Daoyou mentioned Shahai City, I plan to leave in the next two days and go to Qiaozhou. β
Chengfeng first raised his eyebrows, and then quickly in Xue Yuan's gaze, it seemed like ...... A look of relief:
"It's okay, if Lord Xue Gu doesn't come again, Chengfeng will take the liberty to visit Ming Province Valley. β
Xue Yun frowned slightly: "...... It seems that Chengfeng Daoist friends really want me to go to Shahai City as soon as possible. β
Chengfeng didn't hide it: "I hope that the two valley masters can get the truth in Shahai City together." β
"Two?" Xue Yuan's heart tightened.
"Xue Gu Lord, I have been with you at the border of Qingzhou before, and it is not me who wants to meet the two valley masters, nor the demon clan you see today. We were just ordered to protect Miaozhou Jiujing, protect the key to Jiujing, and welcome... Save both of you's lives. β
Xue Yun hooked the corners of his mouth: "Fellow Wind Daoist, I don't really understand, that ...... I hope that Xiao Luo and I will go to Shahai City, what does it have to do with saving our lives?"
Chengfeng was not surprised that Xue Yun asked like this, he sighed: "It's okay that the Xuanqing Gate has arrived, but you guys are too fast against the Feng family." β
Xue Yun pursed his lips and tried not to show any unusual expression.
"I think it should be after the planning of the Ming Province Valley, the Xue family and the Li family...... It's not necessarily reliable. Lord Xue Gu must also know that if he wants to knock down the Feng family, it is far from enough to rely on the Qingyun Jue, it can only temporarily bring trouble to the Feng family, and it can't move any foundation. To shake the Feng family, something bigger is needed. β
β...... What's the bigger thing?"
Chengfeng paused and smiled: "Lord Xue Gu doesn't have to test me, Chengfeng doesn't know as much as you think." It's just that there are indeed things that the Xue Valley Lord will probably want to know in Shahai City, and how to use them after knowing it is your own business, Xue Gu Lord. β
Xue Yun was silent for a moment, and smiled slightly: "Isn't it enough for me to go alone?"
"If the Lord of the Kunwu Sword and the Lord of the Origin Power go together, this incident in Shahai City may be smoother. After Chengfeng finished this sentence, he turned to say: "Ming Province Valley is in the territory of Miaozhou, Miao Zhou is the place where my demon clan has been entrenched for thousands of years, as long as the people of Ming Province Valley do not leave Miaozhou, my demon clan can keep Ming Province Valley safe." β
Xue Yuan's heart moved, and the smile on his face faded.
The latter sentence of Chengfeng was her concern, and it was also her cautious precaution against suddenly reaching out to help and obviously secretly observing her and Xiao Luo's two demon clans.
There are only two Yuanying True Monarchs in the Ming Province Valley now, and as the valley master, she and Xiao Luo are also the strongest combat power in the Ming Province Valley, and in this quiet season before the storm that I don't know if it is, there is no one left behind......
"If Lord Xue Gu is not at ease, he can make a great oath by riding the wind. In Xue Yuan's unconcealed surprised gaze, Chengfeng smiled slightly: "The demon clan will never be burdened with the master of the Kunwu Sword."
