Chapter 185: Hero

Han Qianyu couldn't help but tears, and the feeling of disgust dissipated for a while, it turned out that Xuanling Village still had such an unknown side.

This barren land is regarded as a holy place by the villagers because of the occasional scripture of the saint. The villagers did not allow outsiders to desecrate, so when they heard Han Qianyu tell them to move out of this place, they scolded Han Qianyu all the time.

"I wonder what the two young heroes are doing here?" the village chief asked.

Han Qianyu shook his head and said, "Village Chief, we are here to look for the cold ice and iron stone in Xuemian Mountain. ”

"Chill...... The village chief ......was taken aback, and then asked, "How do you know that there is a cold ice and iron stone in Xuemian Mountain?"

Jiang Mengrou replied, "It was told to us by a master caster. ”

"Master Caster...... "The village chief's eyes flashed with a hint of essence, and he asked again, "But Yan Mantian, who ranks first in the Imperial Capital Cast?"

Han Qianyu was stunned for a moment, and secretly said in his heart, "What a shrewd old man." ”

Although this village chief does not have cultivation, he seems to know a lot about some things outside, and even Yan Mantian's name knows.

"It is Yan Mantian's predecessor. Han Qianyu nodded and replied.

"That's right. The Cold Ice Xuantie Stone is a treasure coveted by many martial cultivators, and ordinary people will not set foot in this barren land at all. Those who know that there is cold ice and dark iron stone here are none other than those well-known casting masters in the imperial capital. The village chief said.

"The village chief, do you know where the Ice Darkiron Stone is in Xuemian Mountain, can you let the two of us take it away?" Han Qianyu asked politely.

"The Darkiron Stone is in the middle of the Snow Cotton Mountain, but the white-armored bear is often found there. On the way, some martial cultivators also came to inquire about the whereabouts of the Xuantie Stone and went up the mountain, but all of them died in the hands of the white-armored bear. The village chief said.

Although he knew that there would always be danger in obtaining the Ice Darkiron Stone, Han Qianyu was not afraid, for him, this time he went up the mountain, the Darkiron Stone was bound to be obtained.

"Have you decided?" Jiang Mengrou looked at Han Qianyu's extremely determined eyes, so she asked.

"Hmm. Han Qianyu nodded. Now that he has come to this point, he is not willing to give up the cold ice and iron stone.

"Okay, I'll accompany you up the mountain. Jiang Mengrou said.

"Mengrou, my life may be in danger when I go up the mountain this time, so you better stay in the village and wait for good news. Han Qianyu suggested.

Although Jiang Mengrou was a little unaccustomed to Han Qianyu's sudden change of words, she also accepted it indifferently, she looked at Han Qianyu and said, "I have accompanied you through so many dangers, how can I be afraid of that evil bear with a false name now." ”

"Well, since you've made up your mind, let's go up the mountain together. Han Qianyu did not reject Jiang Mengrou's idea.

"The two young heroes want to go up the mountain to fetch the cold ice and iron stone?" the village chief couldn't help but ask after listening to the repeated conversations between the two.

"Yes, village chief. Han Qianyu nodded.

"If the two of you are really capable, the Ice Darkiron Stone will be taken, but it will not be easy to deal with the white-armored bear. The village chief frowned.

"Village chief, I know all this, even so, we have to give it a try. Han Qianyu is full of confidence.

"Let's go into the village and talk. ”

The village chief glanced at the two of them and said.

Han Qianyu and the others should go down, and then follow the villagers and others into the village.

The village was a mess, with some cracks left by the ground and many houses collapsed.

Seeing the destruction of their homes, the villagers all knelt on the ground and wailed, screaming again and again, but fortunately they fled in time, otherwise it would be difficult to save their lives. If they hadn't gotten used to this capricious manipulation, they wouldn't have had the courage to live.

There seemed to be tears flashing in the corners of Han Qianyu's eyes, and he really felt heartache for these villagers. At the moment, the only thing he could do was to go up to Xuemian Mountain, get rid of the white-armored bear, and capture the Ice Xuaniron Stone, but he had a wish.

Seeing that the villagers were all disgraced and depressed, the village chief said with relief, "Don't be sad, you can rebuild if your home is gone, as long as our people are still there, Xuanling Village will develop better and better, prosperous." ”

The village chief's good words are really chicken soup for the soul, and many people are extremely excited when they hear it.

The villagers regained their confidence and began to have a real smile on their faces. The village chief is right, as long as the people are still there, Xuanling Village will not be destroyed, and the ancestral teachings of Xuanling will remain in Xuanling Village for a long time and be passed on to the ancestors.

Han Qianyu was extremely moved, this village chief's inspiring ability is really good.

Seeing that the villagers' hearts had calmed down, the village chief began to say to Han Qianyu and the others, "If you really want to go up to Xuemian Mountain to find the Ice Xuaniron Stone, it is best to bring some fish, so that it will be much easier to deal with the white-armored bear." ”

"Thank you for your concern. Han Qianyu nodded.

Indeed, Han Qianyu was not too sure that he could deal with the white-armored bear, if he could bring some fish up the mountain, it might be easier, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he did not refuse the kindness of the village chief.

"However, what kind of fish does the white-armored bear like to eat, and how much should it bring?" asked Han Qianyu.

"I'll just leave this to me. ”

A shrewd man walked out from the crowd of villagers and said to Han Qianyu.

"That's very good. The village chief nodded and explained to Han Qianyu and the others, "Wu Yong is a good fisherman in the village, you can follow him to the river at the entrance of the village to catch some fish and send them up the mountain." ”

"It's fine. Han Qianyu agreed.

Following Wu Yong, Han Qianyu came to the river at the entrance of the village and caught a bucket full of fish, and then carried the fish into the village.

As soon as Han Qianyu entered the village, the village chief led everyone around.

In such a battle, Han Qianyu was stupid and didn't know why, and Jiang Mengrou also looked suspicious.

"Village Chief, what do you mean?" Han Qianyu put down the bucket in his hand, a little unclear.

"Don't misunderstand, this is a ritual unanimously agreed by the villagers. The village chief said.

"Ritual?" Han Qianyu was puzzled.

"The white-armored bear is brutal, and few villagers dare to send fish up the mountain, so the villagers have made a rule, but if any villager dares to send rain to the white-armored bear, they must be treated as heroes by the villagers, and enjoy the heroic ceremony set by the villagers. The village chief explained.

"Alas, it's a pity that the last hero is no longer there......" someone in the crowd suddenly sighed.

"It's true that the sea is gone, but his actions deserve to be remembered. Someone else said.

"Village Chief, what are you going to do with this heroic ceremony?"

Although Han Qianyu was indifferent to this inexplicable ritual, he did not refuse the kindness of the villagers.

"Come with me, both of you. ”

The village chief glanced at Han Qianyu and Jiang Mengrou and said.

With that, the village chief led everyone to a high platform in the village.

The platform is quite majestic and strong, and although it has experienced earthquakes, it does not seem to have affected it.

"Come on, two. The village chief said to the two. Then he instructed those behind him, "Go and prepare what you will use for the ceremony." ”

"Yes! ”

When several young men heard the command, they hurried away.

The village chief brought Han Qianyu and Jiang Mengrou to the stage and led them into a strange circle with strange symbols.

At this moment, the departing young people also hurried back with some things.

Han Qianyu looked at these young people, and he found that some were holding big candles and some were holding basins, but he didn't understand the deep meaning.

"Let's start arranging it. The village chief said to a few young people.

Hearing the order of the village chief, several young people came to the stage and placed six candles around the strange circle, evenly spaced, the candles were about five feet high and the thickness of their calves.

This ceremony should be wishing them a smooth trip, and Han Qianyu seemed to have an understanding.

The young men lit six candles, and then an old woman stepped up to the high platform.

"Let's begin, old woman. The village chief said to the old woman.

As soon as these words fell, the village chief and the young people all stepped down from the high platform.

Seeing this, the old woman picked up the basin of water on the ground, closed her eyes, circled around the strange circle, and babbled out strange words in her mouth.

"Bow!" the old woman opened her eyes, and her withered hands picked up the scoop of water from the basin, scooped a ladle of water, and then opened her eyes and extinguished two of the candles.

Everyone knelt down and kowtowed to Han Qianyu and Jiang Mengrou on the stage.

The old woman continued to close her eyes, circled around, and shouted again, "Second worship!"

After that, the crowd prostrated again.

The old woman opened her eyes and extinguished the two candles.

The villagers all had solemn expressions, which suddenly made Han Qianyu and Jiang Mengrou in the circle look a little embarrassed.

The old woman continued to spin in circles, silently reciting strange words, and then, she opened her eyes and shouted, "Three bows!"

With that, the old woman also extinguished the last two candles.

And they prostrated a third time.

In this way, the ceremony ended smoothly.

Although this kind of ritual was very strange, Han Qianyu didn't say much, he hoped that everything would be as the villagers thought, he and Jiang Mengrou could successfully get rid of the white-armored bear in the mountain and take the cold ice Xuaniron stone in their hands, so that they would not live up to the expectations of the villagers.

"Heroes, you must return safely!"

Everyone shouted in unison at Han Qianyu and Jiang Mengrou, their eyes were extremely eager.

"Don't worry, we'll be back in triumph. A faint smile rose at the corner of Han Qianyu's mouth.

Bidding farewell to the villagers, Han Qianyu covered the entire bucket of fish and put it into a storage bag that could hold everything.

After finishing this, Han Qianyu followed Jiang Mengrou to Xuemian Mountain.

Out of the village, Han Qianyu and the others came to the foot of Xuemian Mountain.

The surrounding area of Xuemian Mountain is extremely steep, and there is only a mountain road leading to the top of the mountain behind Xuanling Village.

Han Qianyu finally understood the reason why no one had taken this cold iron stone for a long time, there were not many people who knew this secret, and it was even more unlikely that the strong would think that there would be an unexpected treasure in the mountains behind such a depressed village.

"Are you afraid?" asked Han Qianyu to Jiang Mengrou.

"Afraid?" Jiang Mengrou shook her head and said calmly, "I'm not an ordinary woman, I haven't experienced any winds and waves, it's just a little danger, how can I be stumped?"

Han Qianyu smiled, he admired Jiang Mengrou's fearless spirit. is also glad that this woman can go all the way with him, rain or shine.
