Chapter XXVII

The horses galloped happily under the support of True Qi, and the official road specially opened for pedestrian passage was unusually smooth, as if the craze for collecting the relics of the cultivators in the near end of time had stopped, and many idlers who were wandering outside had returned to the town, and there were not many commercial convoys in this remote area, and there were only a handful of pedestrians and vehicles coming and going.

However, no matter how hard the horse runs, with the support of true qi, there is still a time when he is exhausted, in order not to let the horse be exhausted and unable to move during the journey, Li Hou still let the horse pause and rest a few times on the way, so that it can recover its strength.

When the horses were resting and foraging in the grass, Li Hou took out the lunch box from the space ring, and took out the wine and delicacies that still exuded a warm and fresh fragrance inside.

In this way, when Li Hou did not want to overexert the horse's physical strength, he paused and rested five times on the way, and it was not until the sun set, when the moon was shining and the stars were shining, that Li Hou rode his horse back to the village.

"Good, don't move." Tie the horse's reins to a large tree at will, and Li Hou calmed it down before turning away.

Although the Yuanhua realm is prevalent in the method of cultivating the truth, and there are many strange abilities and arts, but after all, it is also a thing that can only be used by cultivators, unlike the earth world that now belongs to science and technology, as long as a theory is studied, it can be used in practice and promoted, so that ordinary people can enjoy the treatment of traveling thousands of miles a day and flying away from the earth as the gods in mythology, and there are many different entertainment activities and items to choose from.

A small village that relies on agricultural income basically has no means of entertainment after dinner in the evening, except for the elderly who may not be able to sleep due to insomnia due to age, and chat and play chess with friends of the same age, young and middle-aged people will go to bed early after a hard day's work.

It can be said that it is extremely rare to see many houses in front of Li Hou now, unless it is celebrated every New Year's festival with lanterns, this kind of waste of candles is avoided by the villagers.

And obviously there are candles lit in every house to illuminate the light, and from time to time there will be dark figures shuttling back and forth in front of the window, but there is silence in the village, except for a few subtle whispers, Li Hou only feels that the village is full of dull and irritable atmosphere, and the melancholy meaning is like a curtain covering the sky of the village.

His ears trembled slightly, and Li Hou's keen senses caught a loud voice that was different from the uneasy whisper, but with great irritation, and traced its direction to find that it was the sound from the old village chief's house.

The consciousness in his mind swayed out tightly and irregularly, and at the same time, his footsteps did not stop, and Li Hou walked straight in the direction of the village chief's house.

During the divine search, there were more than a dozen people standing in the village chief's house, silent, just quietly listening to the words of someone standing in the middle of the house and making a big declaration, looking down and thinking about something.

The divine consciousness swirled and circled, and landed on the body of the person who was talking loudly in the room, and a solid and strong true qi fluctuation followed, it was the only one in the village who had cultivated the exercises, had the late stage of qi refining, and was the best hunter in the jurisdiction of Lengxi Town, Huang Dashuang.

Realizing where Huang Dashuang was, Li Hou further accelerated his pace, his legs swayed back and forth like a fan, and the magic of the beast control method was freely displayed without realizing it, and the true qi in the body reverberated in the legs, and there was a low roar of tigers and leopards.

“…… We should organize our men to go into the depths of the woods now, and we can't just rely on that group of arrogant cultivators! All they want is to exterminate the demon beasts, and they don't care about the lives of our children! As he got closer to the village chief's house, Huang Dashuang's loud remarks became more and more audible, and the anger and mania concealed this deep anxiety.

The room suddenly fell silent, and no one commented on Huang Dashuang's remarks, just thinking and anxious about himself, leaving only Huang Dashuang's heavy breathing constantly surrounding the air.

After a period of silence for the "Big Twin ......", the respected old village chief took the lead in trying to speak: "We all understand what you said...... But this matter is really not something we can mix, not to mention the green wolf demon beast that can spit out the wind blade between waving its claws and opening its mouth, or the group of gray wolf demons that a few people in our village can handle, after all, it is just a waste of death. ”

The village chief's words, as if giving up hope, were like a fuse, which suddenly detonated the quiet atmosphere in the house, and in an instant, the complaints and distress of more than a dozen people in the house came and went.

"The village chief is right, who else in our entire village would dare to confront the demon beast head-on, and even the big twins you may not be able to defeat the demon beast, even if you are lucky, but can you guarantee that there is only one green wolf demon beast?! What if there was another one?! ”

"That's it, you didn't see the fierce appearance of that demon beast, the blue light in your eyes was like a knife scraping on you, and it could kill us at any time! Especially those gray wolf demons, no less than fifty of them wandered around the village, if it weren't for the arrival of those cultivators, let alone the children in the village, even the adults would have been devoured by them on the spot! ”

"Huang Dashuang, you said it lightly, but can't you think about the safety of the entire village?!"

The voices of complaining continued one after another, and in the end, I didn't know who started first, and the spearhead of the words actually turned to Huang Dashuang, and everyone began to condemn Huang Dashuang inexplicably, saying that Huang Dashuang was like a fool who didn't care about the overall situation and acted recklessly.

"Enough! I won't count on you anymore! When the time comes, if I rescue my tiger eggs, don't say that I won't save your children when the time comes! Huang Da, who was accused by many people for no reason, was already frantic and manic in his chest, and now he was even more angry, and suppressed the other people's remarks with a roar, no matter what they were thinking at the moment, he turned around and left.

Huang Dashuang, who walked out of the village chief's house, left straight away, his face looked hideous because of anger, and his eyes that were about to turn red fell on the ground, but they were slightly hollow, as if he was planning something in his heart, and even Li Hou, who had already stood at the door of the village chief's house and did not enter, but just listened to the conversation of everyone inside, did not notice it.

Li Hou didn't call Huang Dashuang out loud, because he knew that the latter needed some time to calm down now, and he just needed some time to understand the situation, so Li Hou didn't leave with Huang Dashuang, but turned around and entered the village chief's house.

More than a dozen people in the room were talking to each other in private, as if they were dissatisfied with Huang Dashuang's behavior, and only sat alone in the main seat, and in an instant, the old village chief who had added a lot of old colors to his face noticed the figure of Li Hou who quietly entered.

"It's a friend of the Big Twins...... You're back from Cold Creek. The old village chief reluctantly pulled out a smile and said aloud, and the other people who were still discussing also stopped talking for a while, and looked at Li Hou, a stranger, and the room suddenly became quiet again.

"I want to know what's going on." Li Hou looked at the old village chief directly, without any prelude, and said bluntly.

The old village chief looked embarrassed, as if he didn't want to say anything, but suddenly sighed depressedly, feeling that Li Hou would be able to learn from Huang Dashuang's mouth sooner or later, so he also told Li Hou what happened.

Things still have to start with the encirclement and suppression of a demon pill stage demon beast by a few Jindan stage cultivators seven days ago.

The wolf-type demon beast that was surrounded and suppressed by several monks of the same level was lucky not to die, and escaped from the siege of the cultivators at the risk of death, hiding their figures, and they didn't know where they were hiding, and a large number of gray wolf demons under the demon beasts were also running around under the leaderless group of dragons, hiding in the depths of the nearby mountains and forests, and from time to time they would be found by people, and even captured by hunters' traps.

However, how could there be only a group of gray wolf demons under the demon beasts of the dignified demon pill stage who could deal with the killing of ordinary people under the struggle. The number of Enlightenment Period Demon Beasts that give birth to spiritual wisdom and have some natural abilities is naturally not a few, and there are as many as seven or eight Enlightenment Period Demon Beasts that are further equivalent to the foundation building period monks who can speak human words.

Although these demon beasts that have refined their demonic power are the key targets of cultivators, it is inevitable that a few fish will escape from the net, and dozens of gray wolves and demons will be gathered to act in groups.

Just this morning, not long after Li Hou and Huang Dashuang left the village, a large group of gray wolf demons broke into the village under the command of a green wolf demon beast of the Enlightenment Period, broke into every household, captured several children in the village, and even wanted to attack the villagers.

Although a few Condensation Stage cultivators accidentally discovered the movements of a large group of gray wolves and demons on the way to search for the whereabouts of the Demon Pill Stage Demon Beasts, and saved the people in the village without causing them many casualties, they were still taken away by the wolves and went deep into the mountains and forests.

Afterwards, the old village chief and the village officials repeatedly thanked the cultivators, and hoped that they would be able to save the children who had been captured, and that everyone in the village would be able to sacrifice all their property and pay any price. Who knew that they laughed softly, leaving a sentence of "depending on the mood" and followed up in the mountains and forests.

Judging from the words of the cultivators, it seems that they are planning to secretly follow the gray wolf demon group, and they will not take the lead in making a move, and then wipe them out when they find their gathering place, as for the life and death of the children, it really depends on the mood.

"Among the children who were taken away...... Is there also a tiger egg...... Li Hou asked in a deep voice, but judging from Huang Dashuang's previous performance, the answer is naturally self-evident.

"Yes......" the old village chief sighed softly again, "and then I immediately sent someone to inform the eldest twin, and he also returned immediately, and planned to organize people to search in the forest." It's just that unlike the big twins, everyone in the village was frightened this morning, and they didn't dare to act rashly, and no one dared to go into the forest with the big twins to search for the whereabouts of the children, so he made a lot of noise with me for a long time. Now that he thinks about it, he's going to go alone at night. ”

"This is the child of the village! Maybe it's still the heirs of someone here, why don't you have any blood at all, and you don't even dare to save your own children?! Li Hou looked surprised, he really didn't understand why no one present agreed with Huang Dashuang's opinion.

The old village was silent for a long time, but Li Hou, who lived in the earth world like a paradise, could not understand, this was actually the sorrow of ordinary people born in the general Xianxia world of the Yuanhua realm, no matter how sad and anxious he was in his heart, after all, he was still powerless, not to mention the attack of the demon beasts on the opposite side of the human race, together with the persecution of mortals by cultivators who practiced the Demon Dao Exercises for the human race, and the cultivation of their flesh and blood lives was also common, and no one had ever been able to claim justice for them.

It's just that it's just an ant.
