Chapter 626: The Village

"This was originally a setting left by the designer to obtain the base, and since it is a base, it must be safe and reliable. If more than a dozen teams can win it, who can guarantee that no one will do bad things in the future? To be honest, if I wasn't willing to suffer too much loss, I wouldn't want to tell you that eating alone is not delicious? Luo Han said: "Anyway, I also said the situation, if you want to participate, you can participate, if you don't want to participate, don't blame me for not giving you soup, think about it yourself." ”

Everyone thinks about it, in fact, the base has no practical meaning for most people, except for one, the proportion of time here is very exaggerated, and the earth has reached the point where it is getting more and more day by year. There are many things to do in plenty of time, and if nothing else, it is good to enjoy life, after all, the trialist does not have the troubles of life. However, even if the underworld is incompetent in Journey to the West, it is also the place in charge of the life and death of all souls. The most important point is that the risk is directly proportional to the return, and the task of a huge scenario, even if it is just to get it out of control, will not be very simple.

But soon, everyone came to an agreement, if they want to mix well in the proving ground, how can they look ahead and look ahead? It's silly not to do a task.

"I you." Wuji was the first to state: "A base that exceeds the speed of time is not something that can be encountered easily. If I miss this village, I don't have this store, and if I don't do it, I'm afraid I'll regret it. ”

Huoyun also said: "Not every scene has someone telling us how to do it, I think this is the will of God." If you don't do this, you'll be sorry for God's will, and you'll be sorry for yourself. ”

Against the sky, a simple word: "Dry." ”

Hua Yu and Haotian looked at each other and said, "Agreed." ”

Luo Han nodded: "If nothing else, I plan to enter the underworld to complete the mission within a month after the end of this mission." ”

Huayu said: "Is it necessary to be in such a hurry? ”

"As we participated in the development of the scene, the spirits in the scene have outnumbered, and for every year we delayed, the total number of creatures in the scene decreased by one point. Moreover, with the start of the Journey to the West, there is not much time left for some of us, so it is better to solve these things as soon as possible, so as to try our best to prepare for the final main line. ”

It makes sense for everyone to think about it, after this battle, Tang Seng will set off, and arrive at Wuzhi Mountain in a few months, and the journey to the west will officially begin. So everyone nodded in agreement.

After dealing with this matter, Luo Han asked: "The collection of items in this mission, whether everyone is acting together or alone, what do you think of Huoyun?" ”

Huoyun had gone to the field to investigate, and then said: "According to what I saw when I went to the Southern Wilderness, the demon clan is rampant in the 100,000 mountains, and even a few giants can only demarcate a small area to dominate, and only deter the surrounding area without actual control ability. Of course, the best way to be safe is to act together, but I heard when I was in the 100,000 Mountains that the place where the fairy spirit stone was born was mostly the ancient demon fairy cave mansion, which was heavily prohibited, and it was common to be trapped for ten days and eight days if you were not careful, plus the preparation time before the opening of each cave was uncertain, and the direction was difficult to predict in advance, if we gathered together, it was very likely that there would not be enough fairy spirit stones at the end of the time. So my suggestion is to go to a group of two or three teams, take one cave and count one, and if this group is collected, then go and help other groups in need. This ensures that progress is not delayed by time as much as possible. ”

Luo Han nodded: "What do you think?" ”

Haotian said: "Brother Huoyun has been there, since he said so, he naturally has his reason, it is better than our blind actions." ”

Wuji also said: "I can accept the failure of the mission because of the lack of strength, if I fail because it is too late, I will be angry." I support small groups. ”

Hua Yu said: "However, if you act separately, how can you contact if you encounter trouble?" ”

Luo Han said: "If you trust me, can you let it, the nightmare will leave a mark for you, as long as you are in a dream, you can contact him directly." But I don't want to lie to you, leaving this mark that nightmares can enter your dreams at any time, and if I have bad intentions for you, I can let him steal your memories. You choose for yourselves, and I don't force it. ”

Except for Wuji and Huoyun, the remaining three were entangled. There is no doubt that letting the Nightmare leave a mark is equivalent to leaving all their privacy open, whether or not to see it is all up to the Nightmare's will, if Luo Han has thoughts about them, they have no secrets to speak of. But Nightmares are a communication tool that is really very useful.

"Forget it, Hanfeng, it's not that I can't trust you, it's just ...... I still can't accept this feeling of privacy being completely unguarded, and anyway, I'm a woman. I'm sorry. "Huayu took the lead in refusing, and the reasons were impeccable.

"I can't take it either." Haotian struggled for a long time, he really wanted to get closer to the storm, but he couldn't get over his psychological hurdle.

"It's okay, it's human." Luo Han was not surprised, in the final analysis, their trust in Luo Han was still not enough.

"I can." Unexpectedly, the always cold and unapproachable Celestial Walk agreed.

Luo Han was a little curious: "Why?" ”

"There's no why."

He didn't explain it, but Luo Han understood that although he didn't talk much, he was very arrogant, and since he believed in Luo Han, he would completely believe it. Such a person usually does not have any intimate behavior, but he can be trusted at critical moments.

After thinking about it, Luo Han said: "Okay, there are a few days before the fairy spirit stone is born, let's divide the team first." Luo Han said: "I, Huoyun, and Defiance of Heaven each bring a group, and everyone will follow their will, in groups of two or two, and enter the mountain separately from different places, so that no matter where the fairy spirit stone appears, someone can arrive in time." ”

"I'm with the storm." Huayu was the first to express his position, everyone knew that the strength of the storm was strong, Luo Han was strategic, and he was very fair, and it was easiest to follow him. But after all, Baihua is a girl, and no one has this face to rob Baihua. Wuji said, "Then I'm in a group with Huoyun." "Haotian doesn't matter, the strength of the war song is not weak, it is similar to the war song and the fire cloud.

After the grouping, everyone led the team and embarked on a journey.

The crowd did not enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but chose to go southeast from Tubo, cross along the high mountains on the southern border, and then insert themselves into the periphery of the 100,000 mountains in the Southern Wilderness. After that, they spread out and enter from different directions.

The 100,000 Mountains are a paradise for the demon race, but they are not uninhabited. There are many human beings living on the periphery of the 100,000 Mountains, and in this scene they are called Yue people, and their customs and habits are similar to those of the Central Plains.

Storm and Hundred Flowers came to a village outside the 100,000 mountains. There are more than 100 families in this village, who live a self-sufficient farming life, and are somewhat resistant to outsiders, but their attitude is quite polite, and they are not directly driven away, but no one invites them to settle in their homes.

Luo Han stood in the middle of the stockade and said to Qin Hu beside him, "Dragon, what do you say is going on with these people?" Anyway, we are also new faces, and there are so many people, no one asks us who we are? Where did it come from? What are you doing here? Aren't they afraid that we are bandits? ”

Of course, Qin Hu knew that Luo Han was just complaining casually and didn't care, otherwise his reaction would have been contemplative. "Maybe people are in a big situation and don't bother to pay attention to us."

As soon as the words fell, I heard a loud shout from outside the village: "Come, come!" Send the sacrifice out! ”

At this time, the sound of suona and gong sounded in the stockade, and the source was a large house in the center of the stockade, and then the door opened, and four shirtless men walked out carrying a large box with strange patterns painted with black paint.

Luo Han Daqi: "What is this for?" Worship the heavens or worship the ancestors? Why is the sacrifice still packed in a box? That's too sloppy, isn't it? ”

A suona player glanced at Luo Han when he heard this, but he didn't stop playing, and quickly turned around, but his eyes just now were a little unkind.

Huayu suddenly said: "Why do I feel a little ...... about this kind of place to sacrifice It can't be a sacrifice for the living, right? The box looked like it was big enough for a living person. ”

"Won't it?" Luo Han glanced at the box carefully, his spiritual power probed out, and then his face was ugly: "It's really this kind of bad habit." ”

Qin Hu said in a low voice: "Do you want to stop it?" ”

Luo Han thought about it and said, "Let's see what kind of monster dares to ask for this kind of sacrifice first." It doesn't matter if you don't run into it, since you do, you have to teach this evil demon a good lesson. ”

In the final analysis, Luo Han and the others are still human races, even if they are full of demonic energy, they can't change their sense of identity in their hearts. For such a thing as demon eating people, it doesn't matter if you're not around, and it's absolutely important to be around again.

When everyone walked out of the village with the sacrificial procession, they saw a bull-headed monster standing proudly on a small earthen bag, and next to him stood a thin old man wrapped in a black robe. Seeing the team that sent the sacrifices, the bull-headed monster said, "Let Grandpa Niu see how the quality of the sacrifices is this time?" ”

The four big men put down the box, and one of them opened the box, revealing the face of a girl with her eyes closed, quite delicate and lovely. The thin old man introduced: "She is seventeen years old this year, she is in good health, free of illness and injury, and her appearance is also recognized as the best in the village. ”

The minotaur looked at it a few times and nodded, "It's not bad." As he spoke, he took out a sign from his bosom and handed it to the old man, saying, "After five years, prepare the sacrifice." ”

When the old man got the sign, the only eyes that were exposed narrowed into a slit, and he said happily: "Thank you to the holy envoy, the little one must urge the villagers to prepare well." ”

The minotaur walked to the side of the box, stretched out his big hand and grabbed the girl's neck, took the girl out like a chicken, picked up the girl and strode away.

A group of villagers saw the bull-headed monster walking away, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, when the old man noticed Luo Han and the others, and said loudly: "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

Luo Han muttered: "Someone finally asked." Then he said, "You just gave the living to the youkai." I know that your life here is not easy, and some things are done as a last resort, and I will not say anything about you. Tell me, which youkai asked you for the sacrifice? Where is this monster? We'll help you take down this monster and never suffer again. ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but instead of being happy, they whispered, and their words were sarcastic about Luo Han's incomprehension. The old man was even more blunt: "Young man, this is our own business, we don't need you to interfere, just give your life in vain, in case you annoy the mountain god and send disaster to us, can you afford it?" ”

Luo Han was not angry either, and said, "Mountain God? Will God want you to sacrifice living people? It's just a monster. Since I dare to take care of this, I am sure that I will kill this monster. Tell me where he is. ”

The old man said: "Young man, I see that you also have good intentions, and I will tell you that the mountain god has great powers, and it is not something you can deal with." Lord Mountain God glared at him, and it was lightning and thunder; Stomping your feet is a crack in the ground and a collapse of the mountain; Blow a breath and it will be a torrential downpour. I've seen a lot of young people like you, who gave up your life for a momentary moment. It's okay to die yourself, and it also causes disasters to others, I don't think that's your intention, right? ”

Xiaoqiu said dissatisfiedly: "You old man is really strange, we are kind enough to help you get rid of demons, how can you do everything you can to destroy your own prestige?" Are you willing to keep sending the living to the mountain god like this to keep the village safe? ”

Unexpectedly, the old man nodded: "A sacrifice can be exchanged for five years, why don't you want to?" Even if there is no mountain god, if there is a disaster year, how can there be more than one or two deaths? ”

"You're crazy!" Xiaoqiu couldn't believe it, not only did the old man not feel that there was anything wrong, but he was a little grateful to the mountain god, it seemed that it was a kindness for the mountain god to accept sacrifices to protect the wind and rain, and human life could not compare to a wind and rain.

"Xiaoqiu, don't say it." Luo Han sighed secretly, he had to admit that although the old man's words were crooked, they were tenable. Life forces you to do anything, and it's not surprising that you do anything. Just being reasonable doesn't mean that Luo Han agrees, he has his own values, and he can't accept such a thing at all. It's okay if he doesn't have the ability to change, since he has the ability, he will never allow such a thing to happen to him. "Since you don't want to say it, then we'll find it ourselves."

With a whistle, a black dragon streaked across the sky and circled over everyone's heads.

"Dear master, what are your commands?"

"Track down a minotaur with a human woman. Don't alarm him, see where he ends up. ”

"Do as you ask, my master." The black bone flew into the air, and a pair of vertical pupils glanced left and right, and soon found the target and chased after it.

Black Bone wasn't Luo Han's minion, but his flying ability and sheer size made him an excellent vehicle, so Luo Han brought him out with him this time, which came in handy at this time.

On the ground, the old man was a little surprised that Luo Han had summoned such a huge monster. In his cognition, the larger the creature, the stronger the strength, and at this time, he was a little convinced that the young man in front of him could really kill the mountain god.
