Chapter 12: Beyond the Clouds
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so surprised to see their group of slaves again, and they wouldn't even have time to hunt her down and shock her.
What kind of treasure would that be? "Uncle Shocking, has there been any strange movement in the ancient wood forest recently?"
Tang Qi asked.
Shocking thought about it carefully, "No. ”
"That's strange, if there are any rare treasures unearthed, it will definitely cause some big disturbances."
Tang Qiyi accidentally said what was in his heart.
He was stunned slightly, and said coldly for a while, "Do you think those people are here to hunt for treasure?" ”
The anger and hatred in his tone had been restrained to the fullest, but Tang Qi could still detect it, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this matter was too big a blow to the earth, especially since they hadn't found Chu Yu's body.
Tang Qiduo wanted to believe that Chu Yu had escaped, but all the signs on the scene showed that this was impossible, not to mention that she had no spiritual root.
When she lost her mind, she said a secret unhurriedly, "There is a treasure in this ancient forest, which blooms once in a thousand years and bears fruit once in ten thousand years." ”
"So amazing?"
Tang Qi's eyes widened in shock.
"That's surprised?"
"The most amazing thing about this treasure is its efficacy, flesh and bones, life and death; The living eat flesh and blood, and the dead eat and bring the dead back to life. ”
Tang Qi couldn't speak for a long time.
This is something that ordinary people crave, and those who have cultivated to a high level are even more eager for it.
Cultivation can prolong a person's lifespan, but if you want to be truly hungry and immortal, you have to peek through the realm of the Spirit Emperor, but this is not easy to say, some people may be a spirit person for a lifetime, or even just awaken the spirit root.
So how attractive this treasure is, those who step into the Spirit Emperor with one foot need not strength, but time.
"No wonder the Imperial Legion is here."
Tang Qidao, but something was wrong when he thought about it, "This thing is so magical, why is the ancient wood forest so quiet?" ”
It doesn't look like there's a curiosity in the world.
Shocking explained, "This thing is only recorded in the ancient royal books, and few people know about it. ”
Tang Qi suddenly realized, and also grasped the point of his words, the royal ancient books, then why would the heavens know? "By the way, what is this thing? I didn't know for a long time. ”
Tang Qi said with a smile.
Shocking, "Ai Qingguo." ”
Tang Qi snorted, then didn't say anything, and after being quiet for a long time, he asked again, "Why is it so quiet in this ancient forest, there hasn't been a single strange beast until now." ”
Not to mention exotic beasts, even some ordinary animals have never appeared.
"If they really came to find Ai Qingguo, then the anomaly in the ancient wood forest would have passed."
Shocking touched his chin and thought deeply, "This mugwort fruit will release a substance every time the fruit is ripe, this substance has no effect on humans, but it is very harmful to animals and beasts, no wonder the peripheral materials have become less, it turns out that this is the reason." ”
Having said that, the shocking slightly inquiring gaze looked at the wooden basket beside Tang Qi's side, "You pet is well-behaved and cute, and the black mass is quite cute." ”
Tang Qi pretended not to know about his temptation, and said with a smile, "I also think it's quite cute." ”
didn't tell Tang Bao's identity, not that she couldn't believe it, but that she felt that Tang Bao's affairs would be less dangerous if one less person knew about it.
Shocking looked away and continued walking.
Whatever the reason, it was a good thing for them that the strange beasts in the ancient wood forest were not there, and there was almost no trouble on this trip.
The ancient tree forest is actually not big, but because the ancient trees are lush and dense, it will be a little troublesome to shuttle through, and you can't fly, you can only move slowly through the gaps between the ancient trees.
If there are strange beasts in this ghost place, it will be difficult to escape.
In a hurry, the two of them finally walked out of the ancient wood forest on the evening of the seventh day.
Out of the ancient woods, he looked back and looked deeply, as if he was saying goodbye, and as if he was deciding something.
Tang Qi just wanted to explore, but the shocking eyes had already lowered his eyes and removed the look in his eyes.
The two traveled west along the avenue.
After a night of non-stop driving, I finally saw a city.
"Snowy Night City?"
Tang Qi looked at the plaque on the city gate.
"It seems that we are now in the Dongyun Empire."
Shocking whispered.
After the inspection of the city guards, Tang Qi and the others entered the city.
Because both of them had spiritual roots, neither of them connected the two of them to slaves, and they were simply checked.
I found an inn and stayed at it.
At night, Tang Qi lay on the bed and meditated, while Tang Bao sat on her stomach, tilting his head and staring at her curiously, his eyes were bright, moist and lovely.
"Oh, baby, what do you think we're going to do next?"
Tang Qi was entangled with all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and he couldn't figure it out.
If you want to live, the main thing is to cultivate, you can cultivate anywhere, even find a cave at random, and there is safety, thinking like this, Tang Qi felt that he was a little passive and avoided the world, afraid of teaching Tang Bao badly, so he hurriedly dispelled these thoughts.
This trip was completely following the shocking journey, he seemed aimless, but in fact he was well-founded.
Thinking about it, Tang Qi had other problems again.
"Baby, do you say that cultivating spiritual power is similar to cultivating Buddha and cultivating the Tao?"
Tang Qi sat up abruptly.
Tang Bao's reaction was half a beat slower, and he almost rolled off Tang Qi's stomach, but fortunately, Tang Qi grabbed his tail in time.
"Ahh
Tang Qi was anxious.
Tang Bao shook his head.
Only then did Tang Qi put his mind at ease.
"If cultivating spiritual power is the same as cultivating Buddha and participating in meditation, then you have to enter the world to experience the various states of sentient beings before you can realize the Tao."
"Ah, I see!"
Tang Qi jumped out of bed excitedly and hugged Tang Bao for a fierce kiss.
Tang Bao stepped back with some disgust, is this still his beautiful mother? I just can't see it.
Tang Qi, who was completely excited, noticed Tang Bao's eyes and walked around the room alone.
The history of the continent that I read from Chu Yu before, there is a record of summoning companion beasts.
Although companion beasts are called companion beasts, they are not innate.
It is summoned after the cultivator awakens the spiritual root and finds an opportunity to resonate with the world.
Therefore, if you want to summon a companion beast, you still have to enter the world to practice.
Thinking of this, Tang Qi was no longer as confused as before.
"Hahaha, sleep sleep."
happily hugged Tang Bao and fell asleep.
Tang Bao lifted his fat and short forelimbs, wanting to support his forehead and sigh, but his hands were too short and his face was too fat, so he could only touch his chin, so he retreated and sighed helplessly for a while with his chin in his mouth, before shrinking into Tang Qi's arms and sleeping happily.
The next day, Tang Qi woke up early.
Tang Qi, who had just woken up, still didn't react a little, indulging in his sweet dream last night and laughing.
Last night, she dreamed that she summoned a half-life beast, and that guy was majestic and intimidating! Before I could dream of the point, I was woken up by the shock.
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Tang Qi got dressed and went to open the door.
"Pack up quickly, we're going to see someone later."
Shocking stood at the door and said.
Tang Qi nodded again and again, and didn't ask anything else.
However, the shocking took the initiative to explain some.
"There's a friend of mine in Snowy Night, and I'd like to ask him something."
Shocking said while eating breakfast.
Tang Qi sighed, no wonder he came here.
After breakfast, Shocking took Tang Qi and walked towards the end of Snow Night City.
Entering the city late last night, Tang Qi didn't have time to see the uniqueness of Snow Night City.
The so-called snowy night refers to the fact that it is dark when it snows, so the name of Snowy Night City is called.
Another unique feature of Snow Night City is the arrangement and construction of houses in the city.
All the streets are horizontal and vertical, and the shops and accommodations are built along the streets, with only one row of houses on each side of the street, so there is no repetition.
Tang Qi had been observing for a long time, but he hadn't completely figured out the pattern of Snow Night City.
Snow Night City is a border city of the Dongyun Empire, with a small area and a large population.
Tang Qi couldn't help but be a little curious as he looked at the people coming and going, there were quite a few people in Snow Night City, but many of them looked like people from different places, not like they were local.
Although Shocking walked beside her, he did not miss the doubt in her eyes, and explained in a low voice, "As you think, the people in Snowy Night City are not completely native, many of them are from other places, permanent or short-lived.
Although Snow Night City is located on the border of the Dongyun Empire, it is an important trading center of the Dongyun Empire. ”
"But I don't think Snow Night City is so prosperous......"
Tang Qi didn't understand very well.
Shocking smiled, apparently guessing that she would ask.
"Because Snow Night City has the largest auction house and black market in the Xuantian Continent."
Tang Qi instantly understood, "That Snow Night City City Lord is quite inflexible, with such a big advantage, he will not make good use of it and develop Snow Night City." ”
Shocking smiled and shook his head, but didn't say anything more.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of frolicking and slapping in front of him, and the people who had been leisurely lounging on the street suddenly hid in a panic.
"What happened?"
Tang Qi frowned slightly.
"Little girl, run......"
An aunt looked at her with worry and pity in her eyes.
A trace of doubt flashed in Tang Qi's eyes, and he was about to ask clearly, when an exclamation came from the front, and his tone was full of lightness.
"Yo, big brother, look, that little beauty is really stunning!"
As the purple-clothed man spoke, he had already walked in front of Tang Qi and them, "Beautiful, so beautiful!" ”
The person who was called the eldest brother was surrounded by a group of people and walked over, with an arrogant expression and disdain, "Any vulgar fan can be called a stunning ......"
However, when he saw Tang Qi's appearance clearly, his eyes suddenly straightened, and he was stunned for a while, forgetting to react.
"Big brother, big brother?"
The man in purple bumped his eldest brother with his elbow.
The man glared at the purple-clothed man viciously, turned his head to look at Tang Qishi's face full of obscenity, swallowed his saliva, and said in a voice that he thought was very gentle, "Little sister, what's your name?" Whether you want to go home with me or not, you can have whatever you want, all kinds of elixirs are up to you! ”
Tang Qimoyu's eyes widened, like a frightened rabbit, red, watery, and his voice mixed with crying was thin and soft, "Really? ”
The man had already been bewitched by beauty, and when he heard Tang Qi's words at this moment, his IQ flew even more out of the clouds, nodding again and again, and smiling.
Tang Qi raised his head, looked at him pitifully, and said in embarrassment, "But you don't have what I want......
When the man heard this, he was immediately upset, and patted his chest with confidence, "Hmph, tell me, what is so powerful, I won't have it!" ”
Tang Qi suddenly smiled.
Bright eyes and bright teeth, there are microwaves rippling in the eyes.
"I want your life, will you give it?"
The man didn't react to the fluttering words, so he nodded stupidly again and again.
In the next second, the man's face was flushed, wrinkled together and distorted, and his two hands covered his vital points, "Ahhh ”
