Chapter 361: Breaking the Ice

The demon race has always been the most mysterious and isolated race on this continent, they live alone in their own territory, and never communicate with the demon race or the human race.

But whenever there is a big change in the strength of the human and demon races, they will appear to help the weak side, and the last battle between the human and demon races was also due to the fact that the demon clan sent a body cultivator to assist the human race, so that the demon clan repelled the demon race.

But this time, the demon clan did not join forces with the human race again, but chose to fight the human race with the demon race.

And the reason why Gu Xiangyang lost was that he underestimated the opponent's combat power. Those demon monks mixed in with the low-level monks of the demon clan and attacked from the ground.

Gu Xiangyang's side still followed the usual practice, and launched a counterattack against the demon army's monk army by floating warships and defensive towers on the city wall.

However, the demon clan was not deterred by these attacks, but instead accelerated the speed of the impact, and when it was less than two hundred meters away from the city wall, the mutation protruded, and the demon monk came out of the team and directly smashed the city wall with brute force in more than a dozen large gaps.

This not only caused the city wall to collapse, but also caused the defense tower of the human race to be directly destroyed in many places, and the city's defense collapsed instantly.

Fortunately, after Gu Xiangyang found out that something was wrong, in addition to letting the floating battleship shoot with all its might. , and also released a large number of flying boats to provide fire support to the gaps in the city walls.

However, in the face of the strong strength of the demon clan's physical cultivation, Gu Xiangyang could only order a retreat, and at the last moment, Gu Xiangyang had to abandon the city and leave a demon cultivator controlled by the soul contract, and after Gu Xiangyang and the others retreated, the teleportation array disk was detonated.

This time, it may be the biggest killing caused by Gu Xiangyang's order.

None of the demon and demon monks who participated in the attack ever appeared in this world again.

The huge spatial rift stretched for hundreds of miles, lasting for nearly half a day before disappearing.

Except for leaving behind a huge crater of rock thousands of feet deep, there is only a feeling of fear for all who have seen it.

Gu Xiangyang felt very strange about this behavior of the demon clan, the demon clan seemed to play the role of a balancer on this continent, and whoever was weak would help whomever it was, just like the Mo family in the previous Huaxia Kingdom.

On the Terran side, except for Gu Xiangyang, no one can do it, as long as Gu Xiangyang is unwilling to attack, then no one on the Terran side will have the strength to provoke the demons.

And the demon clan and the demon clan did not dare to attack easily after losing these monks, and the loss of territory was lost, but the life of the monk was the most precious, and after seeing the huge pit that Gu Xiangyang had made, they knew that even if they defeated the city of the human race, these losses were not something they could afford.

It is also because of the appearance of this one, which is called the "pit of end" by later generations, that the two sides of the human race and the demon race will stop fighting, and no one can afford such a huge price.

Gu Xiangyang became more and more interested in the power of the demon clan, and after the demon clan held each other for a period of time, Gu Xiangyang sent people to build a city wall between the forces of the two clans.

In this way, not only is he safe, but he also lets the people of the demon clan know where the boundaries are, and don't let them enter the territory of the human race.

After returning to Huaxia City to recuperate for a period of time, Gu Xiangyang and Wen Yue mysteriously disappeared together, and Huaxia City was temporarily handed over to Ouyang for management, while Gu Zhitong and Ergouzi were in charge of Xuanyuan City and Yanhuang City respectively.

Not too many people know about Gu Xiangyang's departure, since he is a monk, then retreat is the best excuse.

It's just that not long after Gu Xiangyang entered the territory of the demon clan, he was discovered by the people of the demon clan and arrested.

Fortunately, Shenmu warned in advance, so that Gu Xiangyang had time to take Wen Yue into his space.

These demon clans who grabbed Gu Xiangyang are not strong, and Gu Xiangyang himself estimates that even if he gets an intermediate talisman, he can easily clean them up.

However, Gu Xiangyang didn't make a move, but just explained to these strange-looking demon clans that he was a mortal, and he accidentally strayed here after the death of the medicine collector.

However, after hearing Gu Xiangyang say that he was here to collect medicine, these people immediately cheered, tied Gu Xiangyang to a strong knot, and carried him away.

Gu Xiangyang was taken aback by this move, and almost sacrificed a talisman to give these people an all-round electric roast, but then he learned from the conversation of several people that the reason why they were so excited was entirely because he was a human who knew medicinal herbs and could help their tribe see a doctor.

At this moment, Gu Xiangyang was a little relieved, and it seemed that these people did not have malicious intent. It's just that something goes wrong in their tribe that they kidnap themselves.

He was carried by these people through the mountains and forests for most of the day, and it was not until after dark that he arrived at a tribe.

There are probably more than 100 families in this tribe, and the houses are built on tall trees. From afar, it looks like a huge bird's nest. And there's no fence or anything like that.

"Chief! Come out! As soon as these people carried Gu Xiangyang into the tribe, they opened their throats and shouted.

"Squeak, creak" The sound of the wooden door opening sounded, and the torches lit up one by one.

The whole tribe was awakened by the shouts of these people, and they all ran out to watch.

As the crowd gathered, a large fire in the center of the tribe was lit, and after Gu Xiangyang was placed on the ground, he saw an old woman walking in front of him with a cane.

"Chief! This is the human medicine man we have found, let him try to treat those people. One man stepped forward and said.

"Oh? Is this person a pharmacist? How do I look so young? The old woman walked up to Gu Xiangyang and wondered.

"Chief, this man said that he was collecting medicine, and then he got lost and broke into our territory, he is a mortal!" The man replied.

"Oh? Mortal? The old woman said and leaned in front of Gu Xiangyang and sniffed lightly, nodded and said, "Yes, it is really a mortal, and there is no trace of aura on his body." ”

However, she stopped her subordinates from untying the rope for high blood pressure, and asked Gu Xiangyang instead: "How can you, a mortal, go deep into my clan's territory alone?" ”

"I ...... I don't know, there were six of us who came together, and then we found out that there were demons haunting, so we ran away, and I didn't know the direction, I wandered around the mountains and forests alone, picking fruits to eat when I was hungry, and drinking some dew when I was thirsty. Then you arrested me. Gu Xiangyang replied.

"Hmph, I think you're full of nonsense, right? You said you came to collect medicine, but what about the medicine you picked? The old woman continued to ask.

"I lost my medicine basket and tools on the way to escape, and I was thinking about running away to save my life, who cares about those things?" Gu Xiangyang replied.

The old woman was not reconciled, and was about to ask again, when suddenly a terrible howl sounded in the village.

"Not good! It's Tiemu's mother-in-law who is crying, and something must have happened to Tiemu. Chieftain! It's important to save people! Let him help take a look at it first, and ask later, right? Someone shouted.

"Yes, chief, I finally found someone who understands medical skills, so let's save people first." The people of the tribe shouted in unison.

Seeing that everyone was in one mind, the old woman sighed and waved her hand to let Gu Xiangyang go over.

These people untied Gu Xiangyang's body with all hands and feet, and a stout man directly carried Gu Xiangyang, spread his legs and ran directly to the place where the cry came from.

This man doesn't look like he looks five big and three thick, but his skills are quite agile, but in a few breaths, he has already carried Gu Xiangyang to a tree house.

After Gu Xiangyang was put down by him, he first looked around, and then by the light of the fire in the house, he saw a man lying on the ground bunk who was constantly spasming and convulsing, and a woman kneeling beside him was crying constantly.

"Quick! Hurry up! The stout man shouted anxiously and pushed Gu Xiangyang.

Gu Xiangyang was pushed and staggered, and looked back at the strong man.

I saw that his eyes were round, with tears faintly, and he knew that he was in a hurry, so he didn't care, leaned down, and began to see a doctor.

Lifting the thin quilt covering this person and unbuttoning his clothes, Gu Xiangyang was startled, there were gray-white patches on this person's body oozing green water.

Gu Xiangyang hurriedly opened his divine eyes to investigate, and after a while, he got the result, this person was infected with a parasite called the gray spot carrion corpse worm.

This kind of insect is small, like a short silk thread, once parasitic, it will lurk in the skin and hair follicles, in addition to absorbing the host's essence and flesh, it will also continue to lay eggs, the speed of reproduction is so fast and destructive that it is unimaginable, and the monks who are generally parasitized by it can only remove the flesh and blood in the first time.

However, all things are born with each other, there is always a way to restrain each other, and there is no way to treat it, but we haven't found anything that restrains each other.

This kind of insect is recorded in the medical dictionary left by Shennong, and the medicinal materials used are quite simple, and they can be slowly expelled by soaking them in boiled water.

And this patient named Tiemu has been sick for a long time, so he has to take some medicine to enhance his physique.

However, although this treatment is simple, how to get the peppercorns, or how to take out the peppercorns from the space is a troublesome matter.

I'm pretending to be a mortal now, so I can't wave my hand and get a bunch of peppercorns out of the space, right?

After thinking about it, Gu Xiangyang had an idea in his heart.

Reaching into his arms, Gu Xiangyang took out two small porcelain bottles, uncorked them, and poured out a health pill. After priing Temu's mouth open with a thin wooden stick and giving it to her, Teki soon stopped spasming.

When Tiemu's mother-in-law saw it, she immediately stopped crying and thanked Gu Xiangyang again and again.

But Gu Xiangyang frowned and sighed again and again.

Seeing Gu Xiangyang's demeanor, the stout man couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by this?" Can't you cure this Tiemu brother's illness? ”

"No, no, this disease can be cured, but there is a lack of medicinal herbs here, and there is no way to treat it." Gu Xiangyang explained.

"What medicinal herbs are so expensive? You said! Our demon clan lacks other things, but there is no shortage of medicinal materials, as long as you can say it, we can find it for you. The stout man patted his chest as he spoke.

"Okay, I'll tell you about this herb." Gu Xiangyang briefly described the characteristics of Sichuan pepper.

"Huh? We've never seen anything like this. The stout man scratched his head and said, "But it's okay, you come with me, let's go and ask the chief's mother-in-law, she is old and knowledgeable, and she will definitely know." ”

After the stout man finished speaking, he carried Gu Xiangyang out of the house again, jumped down, fell to the ground, and jumped to bring Gu Xiangyang to the leader's mother-in-law.
