Chapter Seventy-Eight: Staying at Night at the Black Dragon
A secluded place in the mighty dart bureau, Zhou Tong has been meditating here since the end of the war. 『』
Although he broke through in the battle, in the end, he also forcibly broke through with his own potential, the foundation floated, the realm was unstable, and the foundation was damaged at the same time, so after solving the bluestone dojo, he immediately handed over the affairs in the door to Mo Hu and Wen Liang to deal with, and he came here for semi-retreat, first, to consolidate the realm that was not very solid, and secondly, to recuperate the foundation damaged by the forced breakthrough.
When Wen Liang came here, Zhou Tong was meditating and pranayama, so he waited quietly.
"Brother Wen, why are you here? But what's the matter? Zhou Tong had already discovered Wen Liang's traces, but he was just pranayama, and seeing that Wen Liang was not in a hurry, he didn't interrupt until he finished pranayama before he opened his eyes and smiled.
"It's not a big deal." Wen Liang shook his head and said with a faint smile, "I don't know if the head of the sect has any impression of the first place in the late third-rate stage of the disciple in the sect." ”
"You mean that kid named Wu Ji?" Obviously, like Wen Liang, Zhou Tong was also impressed by Wu Ji, and as soon as he was reminded, he immediately remembered, "What? What the hell did that kid do again? ”
"That kid wants to go out and practice." Wen Liang simply told Wu Ji about it.
"Oh, I remember that if you want to walk alone, you have to be at least a third-rate peak, and he's only a third-rate late stage now." Zhou Tong thought for a while.
"Exactly." Wen Liang nodded, and then said, "This kid said that meditation is not suitable for him, I think about it, he is also a little different, and he can't make up his mind, so I came to ask the head of the sect what he thinks." ”
After being silent for a while, Zhou Tong nodded, "Since he wants to go out to practice, let him go." ”
"The boss agreed?" Wen Liang asked with some surprise, obviously surprised by Zhou Tong's decision.
"Not bad." Zhou Tong nodded, stood up, walked out of the room, looked into the distance with some solemnity, and said half-loudly, "Others may not know, but Brother Wen should know that although I have broken through the first-class realm, our mighty dart bureau is now the only one in Panshi Town, even in the entire Beidi County, it has a certain prestige." But they also provoked the Heavenly Demon Sect, and I don't know what means they will use to deal with us, even if they don't know it, the means in the shadows will definitely not be less, and now it can be described as dangerous, like walking on thin ice. ”
Hearing Zhou Tong's words, Wen Liang also had a heavy face, he knew that what Zhou Tong said was the truth, and if he was not careful, the mighty dart bureau would be in danger of being destroyed.
After a pause, Zhou Tong continued, "At this time, if we go on step by step, there will only be an end to the destruction of the mighty dart game. ”
"Since Wu Ji wants to go out to practice, let him go out, and what comes out with this kid's watch, as long as he keeps a low profile, there should be no problem, and maybe he will give us a surprise in the end."
Wen Liang naturally would not object to the decision made by the master, and he himself was subconsciously understood, otherwise he would have directly rejected Wu Ji at the beginning.
It's just that he also has some concerns, "But he walks alone in the late third-rate period, will the others be"
Although he didn't finish his words, Zhou Tong understood what he meant, waved his hand, and said lightly, "If the others think that they can do it, as long as they can defeat the five disciples of the same level, what does it matter if they let them also walk alone?" ”
Hearing this, Wen Liang nodded, and understood for a while.
Beidi County is located in the border of the Daqi Empire, under the jurisdiction of Baiyun, Lingwu, Fuping, Jinxian, Yiqu, Xiongguan, Linyi a total of seven counties.
The Panshi Town, where the Mighty Dart Bureau is located, is in Baiyun County, while the Heavenly Demon Sect is located in Xiongguan County, the most marginal part of Beidi County.
Now the Heavenly Demon Sect regards the mighty dart bureau as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, Wu Ji came out to experience this time, but he didn't come to find death.
Therefore, the route he chose was naturally to stay away from the Heavenly Demon Sect and go towards the Central Plains region.
He decided to cross the Yiqu, enter Xian, and finally enter Longxi County, and then enter Neishi County from Longxi County.
And his task this time is very simple to deliver a letter, which does not conflict with his route, that is, to deliver a letter to a family in Lanzhou County, Longxi County, but it only needs to be delivered within two months, so he has plenty of time.
Starting from Panshi Town, crossing the Yiqu, and entering Xian, because this is the route that everyone often takes, there is nothing to do all the way, Wu Ji easily walked to the Heilong Mountain where Beidi County and Longxi County are handed over, as long as he crosses the Heilong Mountain, he will enter Tiancheng County of Longxi County.
If it is someone else, if you want to cross the Black Dragon Mountain, you naturally want to be in groups, after all, the mountains are high and the roads are dangerous, not to mention those strange and strong, bandits and bandits are fierce beasts and poisonous snakes in the mountains and forests, and if you are not careful, you will also kill people.
However, Wu Ji is a master of art and bold, or the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, so he doesn't care about these at all, or he is still looking forward to someone being able to rob him, so that he can follow the vine and get rid of harm for the people while earning merit points for himself.
Although Wu Ji expected some accidents to happen in order to add some material to the journey, he was also cautious by nature, and naturally did not allow the overturning of the boat in the gutter.
After entering Heilong Mountain, he first took local materials and found some herbs to wear on his body, which can not only repel mosquitoes, but also prevent poisonous snakes.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, rugged is certain, and the mountains are high and densely forested, and when it comes to evening, the sky will be dark.
Wu Ji doesn't have to be in a hurry, and he doesn't have to wear the stars and the moon.
He found an open place, lit a bonfire with a fire fold, and went to the vicinity to hunt prey and come back to comfort his hunger.
Wu Ji is not an ascetic, even if the conditions do not allow, if there are conditions, he will naturally not pretend to be a posture, so in addition to placing precious things in the storage space, various spices are essential.
The meat of the processed prey is pierced with an iron chisel and placed on top of the crackling flames of the raging flames, tumbling from time to time while sprinkling some spices.
After a while, the drops of grease fell on the fire, sizzling, and the surface of the meat that began to turn yellow was even more fragrant.
Woooooooo
Maybe it's the smell of the living, maybe it's the light of the bonfire, or even the smell of meat, which attracts the beasts that come out to forage at night in the dense forest.
A burst of wolf howling and ghost crying terrible screams came from the woods, in the dark night, the woods were full of phantoms, ghosts and shadows, for a while it seemed very quiet, very infiltrating.
However, Wu Ji didn't care about this, if they dared to attack him, Wu Ji didn't mind preparing tomorrow's food
