Iron Egg is the name of their child. The door opened, and out came a middle-aged woman, plain-looking, dressed in coarse cloth and wearing an apron tied around her waist.

After he saw Lin Yang, he leaned over and said, "Di is polite." ”

Lin Yang hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Hello sister-in-law, in Xia Lin Yang, I met my eldest brother in the mountains, so I'm disturbed." ”

Seeing Lin Yang's polite appearance, Di Shi covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "Come into the house." ”

Di Meng's house is an ordinary peasant house, wooden furniture, the outer room is the lobby, there are two rooms on each side, the walls are made of bluestone, there is an offering table in the middle of the lobby, there is an incense burner on it, and some fragrant fruits. On the top of the offering table is a portrait, the person in the portrait, Lin Yang recognizes - Taishang Laojun. It seems that the people here are Taoist.

"Brother Lin, the family is simple, and I am smiling." After beckoning Lin Yang to sit down, he said with a smile.

"There, my hometown is similar to here." Lin Yang nodded and said.

"Oh yes, damn it, go find clothes for Brother Lin and get a pair of shoes." Di Meng looked at Lin Yang who was still barefoot, and hurriedly said to Di Shi.

Soon the clothes were brought, Lin Yang went to the back room to change into them, this is a blue coarse clothes, long white cloth socks, with a pair of cloth shoes, Lin Yang seems to have become an ancient dress.

As he changed his clothes, he thought, "I'm afraid this guy is more than 100 years old."

When he was young, he came out of the back room. Seeing that the meal was already arranged.

"Damn it, where's the iron egg?" Di Meng asked.

"Oh, with the mud baby of the Li family, I went out to play, hey, this kid should go home in normal times, it's getting late, don't you go home yet?" The children in the village are like this, they often forget to eat when they go out to play, so Dishi doesn't pay much attention to it.

"Brother Lin, let's eat." Di Meng greeted Dao Lin Yang.

"Wait for the kids." Lin Yang said.

"Alas, this kid is running around all day, and it's been a year since he went to school, and it's still like this." Di Meng shook his head and said.

"Hehe, boys are like this, by the way, big brother, how old are the children here going to school?" Lin Yang asked.

"Oh, if you are verified to have no spiritual root at the age of 7, you will go to the school in the village to study, and at the age of 13, you will stop reading, and you will generally follow the adults to farm, and learn some hunting skills." Di Meng said.

"Hehe, Brother Di, are you just a child with this iron egg?" Lin Yang thought about it, probably not.

"Haha." Di Meng smiled and said to Lin Yang: "There are 4 sisters on the iron egg, and now they have all married to other villages. ”

"Oh?" Lin Yang said: "How many villages are there in this Xuanwu Mountain Range? ”

"Oh, that's a lot, I'm afraid there are tens of thousands." Di Meng said.

Lin Yangxin said that there are tens of thousands of villages, and I am afraid that there will be more than 100,000 people. There should be many children who reach the age of 7 every year. "When the people in these villages reach the age of 7, do they all go to that sect to test the spiritual root?"

"Yes." Di Meng nodded his head and counted, "Don't look at so many people, you can test it, I don't dare to say one in a million, and I'm afraid it will be one in a hundred thousand." You must know that the Xuanwu sect has only more than 1,000 Taoist leaders. ”

Lin Yang nodded, he had a general idea of the hierarchy here. The cultivator is the dragon among the people, with the highest status, and I am afraid that there are clan chiefs, village chiefs, and joint defense officers below. The structure is not complicated. This world is mainly based on cultivation.

This land is probably ruled by some Xuanwu faction, the Blue Dragon faction, the Vermilion Bird faction, and the White Tiger faction, and these sects are in competition, just like the countries on the earth.

"By the way, Brother Di, you said that those Dao Elders will send you immortal medicine regularly? How many immortal pills do so many people have to make? Lin Yang asked.

"Oh, that's right, we have doctors in every village, and these doctors are not all of them, and they have the talent to do so, and they have been selected to learn some simple medical skills and alchemy methods in the entry school. The sect attaches great importance to doctors, although they are not as good as those with spiritual roots, but they are also the second most valued people, you must know that this medicine refining is also talented. Di Meng explained.

This is considered a technician in his own place, Lin Yang thought to himself, and then, he opened his mouth and asked, "What if you have a spiritual root and a talent for refining medicine?" ”

"Huh?" Di was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You're talking about an alchemist." ”

"Alchemist?"

"Yes." Di Meng said: "This alchemy, in fact, ordinary Dao masters know some, but those who focus on this belong to the alchemist." ”

"They're respected." Lin Yang asked.

"Haha, a good alchemist, don't talk about the Xuanwu sect, even other sects will rush to ask for it, they are extremely respected. I've lived for so many years, and I've seen the head of the Xuanwu Sect, Xuanqing Dao Master, but I haven't had the opportunity to meet the sect's alchemist yet. I've heard people say that the various sects of this alchemist are hiding like treasures, for fear that they will be robbed when they come out. Di Meng said very seriously.

Lin Yang nodded suddenly and thought in his heart. "It seems that they know technology, and they are popular everywhere! Damn, I didn't study business administration in college, alas, Mao didn't use it. ”

While the two were talking, someone from outside the courtyard came in, also in his forties (estimated to be one hundred and seventy-eight years old) in a hurry, looking very anxious, and said to the Di couple when they entered the door: "Brother Di, sister-in-law, are your iron eggs back?" ”

"Nope." Bottome said.

"Hey, my mud baby didn't come back, it's late, and I'm back early." The big man said with a frown.

Di Meng became anxious at this time, and he stood up, his brow furrowed. "After getting out of school, didn't the two children go with someone else?"

"I'm just worried, just now I went to ask a few parents of other families, their children are back, according to the child, after school, a few people went to the mountains to play for a while, and then the others came back, mud baby and iron egg said to play for a while, you say"

"The mountain they went to?" Di Meng asked anxiously.

"It seems to be Nishiyama."

"Xishan Mountain and further west is the forbidden land," Di Meng muttered, "Brother Li, let's go find the child together!" ”

With that, he took out a steel fork from the courtyard and walked out.

"Daddy, it's going to be fine, I'll go with you." Di Shi was also completely anxious, she wanted to come and know what the forbidden place was.

The man surnamed Li was also in a hurry to follow Di Meng.

"You're waiting at home." Di Meng said to his wife.

"Brother Di, I'll go with the two of you." Lin Yang got up and followed.

"Brother Lin is really embarrassed"

"Don't say anything else, I know some Taoism, you see, let's talk as we go." Lin Yang knew that this matter was urgent, that forbidden place

"Good! Thank you very much. After thanking them violently, the three of them hurriedly walked out of the door.

"Big Brother Di, what kind of place is this forbidden place?" Coming out of the house, Lin Yang asked.

"This forbidden land was set by the sect for safety, and ordinary farmers are not allowed to enter it. There are many tigers, leopards and jackals with mana in the forbidden land, and it is not for us ordinary hunters to cull. Because our village and its surroundings are protected by the spirit runes of the Dao chief, they dare not come, but if the spirit runes have a range, outside the range, the sect is designated as a forbidden land. The forbidden land has not been seen, and there will be danger immediately if you enter, just in case," Di Meng explained to Lin Yang.

"Has anyone ever been in?" Lin Yang asked as he walked.

"Hey, every year, some come out, some never come out again, presumably they were eaten by tigers and beasts, and most of them are children!" The more he spoke, the more worried he became, and his steps quickened.

"Brother Di, oh, this Brother Li, you are walking too slowly, come, hold my shoulders and show me the way." Lin Yang said.

Di Meng gave the big man surnamed Li a look, and both of them held Lin Yang's shoulders. "Out of the village, go to the mountain road on the left"

"!!" Lin Yang began to perform "Flying on the Grass", and he took the two of them and ran away wildly

Under the guidance of Di Meng, Lin Yang led the two of them into the West Mountain, which was very large.

"The forbidden land still needs to go inside." Di Meng said in Lin Yang's ear.

"Huhuhu~~~~" Lin Yang pointed to the rocks under his feet, and flew again

Now it was dark, and by the moonlight, the three of them came to the narrow mountain pass, which was a mountain stream, and the mountains on both sides of the narrow and narrow place were very dangerous, towering into the clouds, and the other side of the gorge was the so-called "forbidden land". It was shrouded in a cloud of mist.

Lin Yang put down the two of them, and the three of them walked back and forth through the slender canyon.

"How can I find this? Brother Lin. Li Tong said. On the way, Lin Yang already knew that this strong man was called Li Tong, and he was also a farmer in Xuanwu Village, and he had a good relationship with Di Meng.

Lin Yang paused to look, it was dark, only the tall shadows of the trees could be seen, and the white boulders illuminated by the moonlight. He closed his eyes and used his beast sense. Since Lin Yang had immortal qi and learned the Dao method, his perception ability could feel demons and monsters, as well as some fierce beasts with the Dao method of spiritual energy.

In this deep mountain and old forest, it is also full of aura. It's similar to the woods when Lin Yang first arrived. Hey? A strange smell came from the northeast of the forbidden land, and this smell had the smell of a huge creature and some mana

"Let's go!" Lin Yang opened his eyes and said to Di Meng and Li Tong, "That direction." He pointed to the northeast. Di Meng and Li Tong believed in Lin Yang.

So the two of them, under the leadership of Lin Yang, ran over quickly. The more he ran, the more Lin Yang felt that the aura was strong, and under this breath, Lin Yang suddenly felt two extremely weak wisps of qi. It's human.

"The kid must be there!" Lin Yang said and quickened the pace of movement!

The whizzing night wind swept past their ears.

They felt the breath as fast as they could.

In front of you is a huge cave. The three of them walked in without hesitation, this cave is not deep, and there is a glow from fireflies inside!

"Whew~~~~"

The three of them saw an amazing scene. The two white colorful tigers, facing the two unconscious children, had already opened their bloody mouths
