Chapter 12: Heon
Andor immediately used magic to teleport to the highest point of the pine tree, and his staff began to emit a little white starlight, and at that moment, Wu Guang was surprised to see that a huge magic circle almost covered the place within a radius of a thousand meters, like gorgeous open petals, and the scene of this life seemed to pass in front of his eyes.
Time stopped for a moment, Wu Guang looked at the rest of the adventure team curiously, there was no wave on his calm face, it seemed that all this was commonplace. It wasn't until Andorra reappeared beside him and announced to everyone, "The wolf demons are gone! Don't have a head-on confrontation with them, or you'll be in trouble!", Wu Guang reacted, the magic circle just now was a magic used by a white-robed mage to detect the surrounding environment.
"Thanks to you, we would probably have fought them by now. Honglushan said.
"Yes," Yokozo said, "although they are not our opponents, this operation is likely to be exposed as a result." ”
"You can't say that," Leng Wu said, "Those wolf demons are all able to open the Twelve Veins Sect, and their strength should be on par with us." ”
"Yes, and pay attention to the male wolf demon in the center of the circle, his strength is above the twelve veins—" Mingqi said.
"But we have the Autumn Wind Sword Hao, Your Excellency Honglu Mountain, and Genesis, plus the white-robed mage, can't we deal with more than twenty wolf demons?"
"The purpose of the adventure is to end the way, to solve the truth of the problem," said Arin, "and no matter what the outcome is, the adventure will be affected." ”
"Sister is right," Asen said, "The demon clan is unpredictable, otherwise they wouldn't have been so different—"
"It's better to be careful," Amu said, "and in short, I hope the rest of the journey will be smooth sailing." ”
Therefore, even if the adventure of Qingqiu is over like this, although it cannot be considered perfect, there is always a thrill and no danger. Soon, under a rock wall on the border of the Great Wilderness, a fire was lit in Honglu Mountain, and the adventurers gathered around it to roast wild animals caught from nowhere, and the aroma of food overflowed. The three sisters of the Dragon Kingdom were in charge of the food, and the people of the Fog Country and the Sand Country talked about the food of their hometown with relish. Wu Guang, who was weak all over, couldn't help, and although he was very good at Shukuni cuisine, he couldn't complete the complicated process under such conditions. Autumn Wind and Genesis stood high on the rock face and confirmed the direction of their next move with Andorra, and from their calm faces, the party did not deviate from the planned direction.
After a while, the solitude of the crowd felt the long-lost feeling of satiety again. Therefore, a wave of drowsiness hit, and Wu Guang curled up in a ball and fell asleep on the hard rock. Andorra has cast a spell on people so that they will not be easily noticed even when they pass by, so that everyone can sleep comfortably.
!!!!!!
Early the next morning, Wu Guang woke up with the first rays of sunlight. He jumped to his feet, ready to look at the clock hanging in front of the window, and picked up the kettle to boil the water—only to find that he was not at home at all. So, he could only sit down in frustration, not only did washing his face and brushing his teeth become a luxury, but also toast and bacon did not have it. In front of me, there is only the cold meat left over from last night's meal. After a brief adjustment, they continued on their way.
The cold front brushed their faces, and everyone involuntarily closed their eyes, and when fifty vultures flew through the sky, the adventuring party would bow their heads, and then move silently towards the horizon. It was a crisp morning, and the mist wrapped around the green hills behind him, and Wu Guang opened one eye to peek at the scene behind the man, and found that the big bird had flown very high, far from the ground, and even the mountains had been left behind. He closed his eyes again, and he didn't dare to let go. He wanted to take a warm bath and have a big meal on the grass. However, in the Great Wilderness, such an idea is nothing more than a ridiculous luxury.
There is a flat area at the top of the hill with many steps leading to the river, and the ferry crossing, the Hapushi slab, leads to the meadow on the other side of the river. Although the name is called the Great Wilderness, the scenery in front of you is thriving. At the end of the stairs there was a cave with many pebbles on the floor, and everyone gathered at the entrance to discuss what to do next.
"Our improvised expedition team is one of the best Terrans today, and I believe we will make it to the end of our journey. With good tacit understanding and good luck, we successfully passed through the Qingqiu Hills, of course, this is also indispensable to the help of Li Xuan, the king of the Qingqiu Fox. "Now, we have reached a place even farther than I had planned. After all, I still have a lot of tasks to do, and every white-robed mage has countless tasks to complete, and we may have a chance to meet again on future trips, but now, I have more important things to do. ”
The three sisters of the Dragon Kingdom made reluctant voices, and Wu Guang even burst into tears. They all began to think that Andorra would go on an adventure with them, and finally came to the tomb of the Black and White Emperors, but they didn't expect that this moment was a separation.
"I'm not going to disappear right away, I'm going to spend a few days helping you figure out your itinerary for the next few days, and I'm going to take care of your luggage and food by the way. Last night I reconfirmed the direction of travel with Genesis and Autumn Wind, and fortunately, it was exactly what we had planned. I can tell you a fact—that area to the north of the road we are going to pass through must be uninhabited, unless a new friend moves in in my absence, and I have a man of acquaintance who lives near that place, and who built steps on the rock, which he called Maklo. We must now find him, and if all goes well, get plenty of food and luggage. "After I left, the expedition was led by Mr. Yokozo, who is the owner of the Black and White Twin Star map, and I believe that he will be a great leader." ”
As if to explain the aftermath, Dali, Erni, and the three sisters of the Dragon Kingdom begged him not to leave, and everyone was willing to do a lot for him and share the jewels they found with him, but this could not change the mage's decision. In fact, everyone understands that everyone here does not join the adventure for the sake of treasure, they have only one common goal: to find the truth about the black and white emperors.
The mage smiled but did not answer, his kind eyes showing perseverance.
After that they no longer persuade. Then, one by one, the group took off their clothes and took a bath in the clear river. Then, they enjoyed the warm sunshine in the sun, feeling that their whole body was full of energy, but they were still a little sore. Soon, they crossed the ferry and began to walk along the thin meadows, along the edges of the oak trees and the tall oaks.
"Why is it called Maklo?" asked Wu Guang as he walked behind Andorra.
"Because my friend is from the sea, and his hometown is Maklo—"
"Will anyone come from the sea?"
"Hahaha, yes," Andorra smiled, "and when he told me about it, I couldn't believe how anyone could have come from the sea, and though he never told me about his past, and I didn't mention it, he was a great man. When I introduce him, you have to be very polite. Also, don't anger him, he is an unfathomable master, just like the wolf demon standing in the circle last night, his strength is above the Twelve Veins Sect Spiritual Magician, and among us, only Qiu Feng, Honglu Mountain, me, Genesis, and Mr. Yokozo are his opponents. God knows what he'll do when he's angry—"
Qiu Feng pricked up his ears and heard Andorra say this, and immediately gathered around, "Mr. Andorra, are you just talking about the person we are going to meet?" he asked, "If he is dangerous, can you describe it more clearly?" Wu Guang saw that Qiu Feng had already held his hand on the hilt of the sword, and it seemed that he could draw his sword at any time.
"His name was Heon, and he was very strong, and he was a man from the sea. ”
"What! Is that the kind of guy who rows a small boat out into the sea to fish?" Wu Guang asked.
"No, no, no, no," said Andorra, "remember, Mr. Wu Guang, that he is a man of no other, unfathomable, and that he must not open the veins within a twenty-mile radius of his house, or he will regard anyone as an enemy." He was blind and could only perceive his surroundings with his hearing and psychic powers. He lived in a wooden house built by himself, and he had lived alone in the Demon Continent for a long time, and neither the wolf demon nor the fox demon dared to provoke him. The bear demon in the west had launched a massive attack on him, and eight hundred bear spirit masters surrounded Makelo, and that day, standing on the wilderness, I saw him alone at night, in the moonlight sinking towards the green hills, and repelled all the enemies alone. I also heard him shout in an ancient language: 'The day will come when the soul of Macro will be sacrificed with blood' – and because of that, I think Maclo is the name of his homeland. ”
The expedition members didn't ask any more questions, but they had a lot to think about, and they had a long way to go to reach the stranger's house, Heon. The group climbed the slope and slowly walked into the trough. The weather was very hot, and they would sometimes rest under the trees, and when the ripe fruit fell to the ground, Dali and Erni would pick it up and eat it with relish.
Halfway through the afternoon, they noticed a large field of beautiful flowers nearby, the same flower growing in the same area, apparently deliberately cultivated. Alfalfa flowers, cockscombs, and nectar can be smelled from afar, and the wind is full of humming sounds. Those wild bees were surprisingly large, and if any of them bit Wu Guang's body, he might immediately become swollen.
"We are very close," Andorra said, "and we are on the edge of his flower field." ”
After a while, they came to an area of very tall oak trees, and in the midst of which there was a very high wooden wall, which was difficult to see without standing on tiptoe.
