Chapter 44: The Land of the West
At dawn the next day, as soon as Zhang Ling got up, the villager told Zhang Ling that he had organized the strong men of the whole village, and when Zhang Ling had breakfast, he wanted to send Zhang Ling and Yu'er out of the village. Zhang Ling heard that he hurriedly stopped it, and said that the snake demon they dreamed of in the red bamboo forest last night had been taken away by a divine eagle, and there were no monsters in the red bamboo forest now.
Dahan was incredulous after hearing this, but still insisted on sending Zhang Ling out of the village. Zhang Ling was helpless, so he told Dahan that if he didn't believe it, he could send a few people to the red bamboo forest to take a look.
The big man seemed to believe it or not, thinking that Zhang Ling was thinking about them, so he sent a few brave and strong men to the red bamboo forest to check carefully, and sure enough, when the villager Han heard that the red bamboo forest really did not find the snake demon, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said that Zhang Ling was their nobleman, and asked the whole village to send Zhang Ling out of the village.
But Zhang Ling said that he liked it very much, and he wanted to stay here for one more day and then go in the evening. The Han was naturally happy to receive them, and now that there were no goblins in the village, the whole village cheered, and said that a feast would be held in the evening to send Zhang Ling and them.
In the evening, all the villagers gathered together, and they were all very happy, because they knew that they were at last free, and they all drank big bowls and ate big pieces of meat. At the banquet, many villagers had to toast Zhang Ling's wine, Zhang Ling was spared under the excuse that he couldn't drink, if he was drunk, how would he leave here later?
"Ling Shao, why did you wait until the evening to leave here, wouldn't it be better to leave earlier?" Yu'er sat next to Zhang Ling and asked unconsciously in confusion.
"There are reasons why I chose to go at night, one is to let these villagers confirm with their own eyes that there are no snake demons in the red bamboo forest at night, so that they can leave with peace of mind in the future; Zhang Ling saw that Yu'er was puzzled, so he patiently explained.
"So that's the case, Ling Shao is really thoughtful, and he has no last resort!" Yu'er felt more and more that Ling Shao was a bit of a big man.
After the banquet was dispersed, the villagers of the whole village escorted Zhang Ling and Yu'er, the two distinguished guests, to the red bamboo forest, the Han first sent a few people to carefully enter the forest to check, and found that the red light that would flicker every night in the bamboo forest had long disappeared, and there was no trace of the demon, so he came back and told all the villagers that there was indeed no snake demon in the bamboo forest. After leaving the village, those villagers were still reluctant, and they looked at each other for a long time before leaving.
"Hey, they're all gone, these villagers are really enthusiastic!" Yu'er said with relief.
"These villagers think that the snake demon has not left for a hundred years, but now the two of us have left the red bamboo forest as soon as we come, thinking that we are the nobles sent by heaven to rescue them. Zhang Ling naturally understands the psychology of these villagers.
"Ling Shao, I think we should get out of here quickly, or someone will find out after dawn. Yu'er saw that the sky was getting brighter, so she urged Zhang Ling to set off quickly.
"Okay, release the eagle owl, let's get out of here quickly!"
Zhang Ling and Yu'er sat on the back of the eagle, soaring under the night sky, like a pair of fairy couples, but they were the target of everyone, and they couldn't stay anywhere for a long time, otherwise they would be discovered by the demons.
"Yu'er, where do you say we're going now?" Zhang Ling looked at the vast land under the night sky, and suddenly felt that he didn't know where to be.
"Ling Shao, it should be out of the borders of your dynasty now, right? Let's go to the west, although the civilization there is extremely underdeveloped, but compared to those big cities, the air is fresh and the aura is relatively more, which is suitable for cultivation. Yu'er made her own suggestion.
"Okay, let's go west!" Zhang Ling listened to Yu'er's suggestion and knew that she knew more about the cultivation method than herself, so she naturally had no objection, so he instructed the eagle eagle to fly to the west.
After flying for almost half a day, the sky was already dark, and Zhang Ling and they were also close to the western land.
Zhang Ling looked down, only to see that there were many fewer mountains on the land below, more rivers, and some bunkers and castles, and the people's appearance and clothing were not much different from those of a thousand years ago, probably because Westerners did not need the enjoyment brought by the prosperous city, they had their own beliefs, and just wanted to live quietly and comfortably.
"Ling Shao, let's go down!" Yu'er saw that she had arrived at the border city in the west, so she reminded Zhang Ling that she had arrived at her destination.
"Okay! Da Diao, you enter the Kunlun bag for the time being, and we will go down by ourselves, so as not to be discovered. After Zhang Ling let the eagle enter the Kunlun bag, he and Yu'er glided down hand in hand and landed on a deserted river.
"Yu'er, the air here is really fresh, it makes people feel more relaxed, I feel like I'm in another world. ”
After Zhang Ling came down, he immediately felt that this western land was really different from the east, although the civilization and education were not very developed, and people's lives were still like ancient times, but such a different Western world was particularly suitable for Zhang Ling's cultivation.
"Yu'er, where are we going now?"
"Let's find a place to live first, let's rest first, and then find a hidden place to practice, last time I fought with the snake demon, I got a lot of insights, and after practicing for some time, maybe I can break through the nephew and reach a new realm!" Yu'er has already made the next arrangements.
"Oh, yes, let's find someone nearby!"
"Before we leave, there is one more thing to do. Yu'er was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Ling asked suspiciously.
"Ling Shao, you have read the Chronicles of the Six Realms, which introduces Western languages, I will help Ling Shao quickly memorize and understand these Western languages now, otherwise Ling Shao will not be able to speak and understand those Western languages. ”
After Yu'er said that, she pressed her hand on Zhang Ling's eyebrows, closed her eyes, and after a while, some strange glowing words appeared on Yu'er's fingers that were flowing rapidly, entering Zhang Ling's sea of knowledge.
"Ling Shao, you already know the Western language, we can go. ”
Zhang Ling closed his eyes, only to see that his mind was full of Western characters, and some Westerners were talking to each other, but strangely, Zhang Ling listened to Eastern languages. In fact, those people spoke an authentic Western language, but after Yu'er's spell, they invisibly provided Ling Shao with a sea knowledge translator.
"Okay, let's go!" Zhang Ling didn't feel like it was magical, and then followed Yu'er towards the border city.
