Chapter 18: The Plague Beast
Yang Lingyi and Yang Lingyu finally left, and only Yang Linghai and Yang Mu were left in the Spirit Garden.
"Yang Mu, now that you are famous, you will be famous in the Uchiyama, I am afraid that you will be more valued by the family than Yang Xiao's guys, I have to congratulate you. ”
Yang Mu waved his hand and responded with a wry smile: "Clan brother, if you can, please ask the clan brother to keep it secret for the younger brother." People are afraid of becoming famous, the younger brother's cultivation is too low, and he just has a little talent for spiritual planting, no matter how he is just driven by others. The younger brother is in this inner mountain, and he can only trust the clan brother. ”
Hearing this, Yang Linghai put his mind at ease, he was worried just now that Yang Mu thought of himself very highly, and would even leave Yun Qin Peak to go to other spirit peaks. With the ability that Yang Mu is showing now, it is enough for other high-level spiritual peak cultivators to spend a lot of money to buy it.
"Thanks to Yang Mu, you believe that your brother will not treat you badly. From today onwards, the monthly interest will remain the same, plus a Luo Xin Pill to help your cultivation. The rewards remain the same, and we will reward them according to the value of a variety of elixirs. Yang Mu, what do you think?"
Two low-level spirit stones per month are already the highest treatment for a miscellaneous monk like Yangmu in the inner mountain. The low-level cultivators of the Luoxin Pill are accustomed to using pills that help them cultivate, and taking this pill at the fourth layer of condensation qi also has a certain medicinal effect.
Yang Mu was very satisfied, "Thank you brother, the younger brother is very satisfied." ”
Yang Linghai was even more satisfied, smiling and smiling suddenly his face changed, "By the way, I almost forgot, a month ago, you happened to be looking for me, brother of the clan, and you said that there was something important at that time." In the past month, I have been busy ripening the bitter spirit grass and forgot about it. Brother, what are you looking for me, tell me now. ”
"There's nothing else to do, it's just that the little brother wants to go out. ”
"Go out, out of the inner mountain, or Yunxia Mountain. ”
"My younger brother wanted to go out of the mountains, and my mother died three years ago, and I promised my mother before my death that I would personally send her home and bury her in my hometown. ”
Yang Linghai had no reason to refuse such a request, worried that Yang Mu would be in danger along the way, so he wanted to go with him, but Yang Mu refused.
Yang Linghai was actually just talking, he didn't have time to accompany Yang Mu on this trip, but gave Yang Mu three spirit runes.
In Yang Linghai's opinion, with Yang Mu's current cultivation, it is very difficult to drive an offensive spirit weapon, mana cannot last long, and the spirit rune only needs a very small amount of mana stimulation to release a strong power.
The three runes are all low-grade runes, one of which is a wind rune, once activated, the power of the runes can be transformed into the caster's body, driving the caster to flee like the wind. One is a defensive spirit rune, which, after activation, can be turned into a water shield, which should be able to block a blow from a fifth- or sixth-layer Qi Condensing Cultivator. The last one is an offensive spirit rune, which can turn into eighteen ice arrows after being activated, which is twice as powerful as the ice arrow talisman that Yang Yue activated before.
Yang Mu didn't refuse these, and put them in the storage bag, with his strength, these three spirit runes were just enough to use.
In addition to the spirit rune, Yang Linghai will personally send Yang Mu out of the mountain. Yang Xiao and the others in the inner mountain are afraid that their grudges against Yang Mu will not be eliminated, and if they learn that Yang Mu is out of the mountain, they will definitely send someone to hunt them down.
Yang Linghai personally sent it, so that Yang Xiao and the others could get the news later. Waiting for Yang Mu to leave for a few days, the outside world is vast, and it is difficult to find it.
Yang Mu left the Lingyuan the next day, left Yunxia Mountain, and deliberately came out of the east of Yunxia Mountain, where the monks guarding the mountain were from the same vein as Yunqin Peak, which was convenient for entering and exiting.
Leaving Yunxia Mountain, Yang Mu galloped forward for a hundred miles before turning south. This is the first time Yang Mu has gone far away, and since he was born, he has not left Yunxia Mountain for hundreds of miles.
I asked for a map from Yang Linghai, this map depicts the landform of the entire Jiangling Kingdom in detail, and marks the division of the major immortal cultivation forces in the Jiangling Kingdom, the immortal mountains they occupy, and the scale of their forces.
Yunxia Mountain is a medium force in the entire Gangneung Kingdom, and there are foundation building masters in charge. The Yang Yin family occupies Yunxia Mountain, and has the right to rule over the four main towns of Yunxia Town, Luoxia Town, Heling Town, and Qingyu Town, and can recruit disciples with spiritual roots among mortals in these four towns.
The purpose of Yang Mu's trip is Yunyin Mountain in Luoxia Town, he came out of Yunxia Mountain, and then went east for 100 miles, and then turned around in a straight line for more than 1,000 miles.
The poplar on the first layer of condensation could not fly into the air, and rushed all the way, practicing his ghost step by the way. The distance of a hundred miles, which took more than half a day at his previous speed, now only takes two or three hours.
Although the ghost step is a mortal martial art, Yang Mu added mana to it, the speed became faster, and at the same time, the consumption of mana greatly increased, in order to ensure that there was enough mana, he needed to rest for an hour every hundred miles before continuing to hurry.
From Yunxia Mountain to Yunyin Mountain, at the speed of poplar, it takes six or seven days. Out of Yunxia Mountain, he passed by the place where he buried the copper basin, but did not take the copper basin.
Going out to Yunxia Mountain, Yang Mu was not sure if he was being followed, for the sake of safety, he just passed by, glanced at the place where the treasure was buried, and saw that there was no trace of opening, so he left with confidence and rushed towards Yunyin Mountain.
The mortal world, close to the periphery of the land of aura, is still not safe enough at night, and the unfinished demon beasts are infested at the time. Yang Mu felt that his mana was weak and did not want to take risks, so before the sun went down, he arrived at another town in Yunxia Town.
It is said to be a town, but in fact it is just a larger village, and there is an inn for those who are in a hurry to rest.
The village has built a tall city wall, and there are crossbows on the city wall to resist the monsters, and for more than ten years, the village has not been breached by the monsters.
Poplar entered the village just halfway through the sunset, and the yellow and white things stayed at the inn and rested quietly for the night, intending to leave the next day.
The inn of mortals, made of stone and wood, has a good sound insulation effect for mortals, but for monks, the sound insulation effect is very poor. The monk took the spiritual energy into the body to cultivate, the body improved, and the sensory agility far exceeded that of mortals.
As soon as Yang Mu lay down, he heard the conversation between the two people next door, and he didn't deliberately eavesdrop on it, but the sound insulation effect was too poor.
"Brother Qing, how can it be, you are a famous master in Xiayu Prefecture, how did you end up like this. ”
"It's too miserable, it's too miserable, the plague beasts are raging, and I am the only one who escaped from my village. If I hadn't given up one hand and jumped off the cliff, I am afraid I would not have been able to escape. The plague beast was so fierce that several villages around it were devastated, and I fled all the way, and there were blood stains everywhere, but I didn't see a single corpse, and they should have been swallowed alive by the plague beast. ”
"Plague beast, how can that be good, if you don't kill this beast, sooner or later it will come here. I think we'd better run away tomorrow, as far away as possible. ”
"Brother Hai, don't worry, the plague beast has already been subdued. After I jumped off the cliff, I was rescued by an immortal, if it weren't for the immortal master, Qing would have died of the poison of the plague beast. I heard that the immortal master said that they were coming for the plague beasts, to kill the demons and save the dawn. ”
"Ah...... Immortal Master, I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity, Brother Qing. I heard the elders say that the immortal master is really a god, calling the wind and rain, and driving the clouds and fog. It is rare for ordinary people to see in their lives, and occasionally someone has a fairy fate, which will attract the immortal master to cross the people. Brother Qing, tell me quickly, what does the immortal master look like, and is it really as ...... as rumored?"
As soon as they heard that there was no danger, a few people next door were attracted by the immortal master.
Yang Mu sat up, he was attracted by the pestilence beasts in the mouths of those few mortals. As for the so-called immortal master, he is actually a monk, an immortal in the eyes of mortals.
This place is two hundred miles away from Yunxia Mountain, and the plague beast has made such a big move, which must have attracted the attention of the Yang Yin family, and the immortal master should be the monk of the two families.
Yang Mu is not interested in slaying demons and demons, he doesn't have that ability yet, and the only thing that can attract him is the plague beast.
"Plague beast? It should be some kind of demon beast, which has ravaged several villages and devoured so many people, will there be a ghost undead? I don't know if those monks have eliminated the demon beast, but they should go and see, if they can catch the Yin Soul Undead, they can also ripen the Silver Soul Grass. ”
For poplar, the most important thing is the silver soul grass. According to the current situation, there are normally less than three years, and that Silver Soul Grass can solve Yangmu's troubles.
But if it can shorten the time, it will be more reasonable for Yang Mu, the qualifications of this physical body are not good, and the delay in time will not be conducive to his future cultivation.
After thinking about it for a while, Yang Mu planned to go and take a look, but to find out the situation, he had to ask the person next door carefully.
With Yang Mu's current realm, his divine consciousness cannot be released, and the ecstasy method cannot be used, so he can only wait until tomorrow to listen to it from the side.
On the second day, Yang Mu got up early in the morning, came into contact with the man as a doctor, and obtained more information by treating the man's wounds and asking about the plague beast and the monk.
Minggu Village, according to the mortal people, the plague beast came out of Minggu Village. Five years ago, there was a plague in Minggu Village, and no one in the village survived, and was sealed to death by the government in the mountain village, and the villagers who wanted to escape were mercilessly shot by the officers and soldiers.
Yang Mu then left, changed direction and rushed southwest, and Minggu Village was three hundred miles to the southwest.
On the way, Yang Mu was quite careful, worried that he would be discovered by the monks of the Yang Yin family. It's nothing to be discovered, mainly because I am afraid that Yang Xiao's people will know about it and expose my whereabouts.
Deliberately delayed, Yang Mu was lucky, he didn't meet those monks, but he saw the traces of the battle between the monks and the plague beasts, it should be quite intense, the scorched earth was scorched, mixed with blood, the smell was extremely pungent, and the blood was disgusting.
There are no villages to settle down in the three hundred miles of this road, and poplar can only live in the ruins of those destroyed villages and spend the long night. Yang Mu is now more worried about encountering demon beasts and wasting spirit runes.
Three days later, poplar arrived in Minggu Village, the village was full of green smoke, a fire had just been extinguished, and tens of thousands of acres of mountains and forests were burned. It seems that the monks found this place and burned everything.
"Wait until the evening, and hopefully there will be ghosts and ghosts. Yang Mu frowned, he was still expecting the appearance of the Yin Undead.
Not long after entering the village, night fell, although there were still several flames that had not been extinguished, but the village was very cold, the wind gusted, and the poplar wood aroused goosebumps all over his body, and he hid in a collapsed earthen house, showing his eyes to observe the surroundings.
