Chapter 314: The Road Meets the Monk
After riding the blue body for a while, Lan Yue and I left the border of the New Century Capital and headed towards the southeast, beyond which was a continuous area of mountains and mountains.
Not so long ago, that green mountain range was a scenic area with pleasant scenery and beautiful environment, but now the sky is clouded and the sun is difficult to see, and even this green mountain range, which seemed beautiful not long ago, is now filled with gray haze, and looks like a gloomy netherworld.
The valley surrounded by mountains and the cold wind blowing from time to time has indeed become a different place.
Passing by the path, I also saw a lot of black monsters, and that mountain seemed to be already a small home of the demons.
It's chilling to think about, but if there are people living in this area, it won't be good. Naturally, we can't manage that much until now.
After entering the area of this continuous mountain range, when Lan Yue was temporarily piloting the body, I observed the piece of jade, and the direction of travel shown at this moment, the place where we were going next became somewhere in this continuous mountain.
The needle that guides us forward indicates a place in the mountains, and we don't know what lies ahead of that place.
After roughly understanding the situation, I sat in the driver's seat and said to Lan Yue: "The direction in which the jade is guiding us is around this mountain range, I don't know where the exact location is." ”
"yes, then I'll land about the center." Lan Yue responded
Hearing this, I said, "Okay."
Immediately, the blue mech we were riding in began to move towards the center that probably looked like the jade was indicated, and over the course of a few moments, the mechs gradually landed below a canyon surrounded by greenery, which used to be a beautiful place, but now looked more like the Netherworld.
Then, the body landed in an open area, next to the road, in a clearing among the trees, under the muffled sound of landing, I immediately said: "Next, should we go out to look around here, are there any clues, or can't we say?" ”
Hearing this, Lan Yue responded: "Let's go out, it's not very convenient to find something inside this mecha, after all, it's such a huge guy, and the target we want to find may be very hidden, we have to go out in person to have a greater certainty." ”
"I see, then let's open the cabin." I said
Pressing the open button, the rear hatch behind us was opened from bottom to top.
Turning around, I walked towards the hatch, looking at the haze outside, the air is not good, it will also affect the vision, looking at the surrounding situation, I stepped out of the cabin, landed on the land, and Lan Yue then jumped down.
We confirmed the surrounding situation one after another, and confirmed the guidance on the jade, and the direction indicated was indeed near here, so we had to start looking.
"Brother, where do we start?" Lan Yue looked around and said
"I see that there is a road between the canyons in front of me, and the jade also shows that there is a lot of energy around it, so let's go over there and take a look." Hearing this, I stretched out my hand to gesture not far ahead, and responded
"Okay."
With that, we began to walk towards the canyon road ahead.
This piece of jade takes us in the direction of the Flower Wheel Tin Staff, which had previously pointed to the location of the ten thousand elephant demons, and now pointed to the other side, and it is difficult to even determine at the moment, even if we can find it, whether the target we find is the dark goddess of destruction.
I met him not long ago, and I wonder if the Dark Goddess wants to see me again.
Immediately, we can only take it one step at a time, although the time is very short, there is nothing to do, but we can hope that Ashitia's side can think of something, she said before that there is something urgent to do, and I don't have time to go to her again at the moment.
Lan Yue and I continued to walk along the path of the canyon towards the path of the Netherworld, and many of the trees around us had withered due to the influence of this demonic energy.
All the way forward, I can feel that there are a lot of monsters around me who seem to be eyeing us, but I also feel the mysterious aura contained in our bodies, and I dare not approach without permission, not to mention that I still have that piece of jade, which can prevent magic disturbances.
After walking a short distance, Lan Yue and I couldn't feel the difference here, but the place indicated by the jade stone was still here, as before, the monster was hiding under the land, and when it got closer, it could be felt, like thousands of elephant demons, it had high mana to hide its whereabouts, which made it really difficult for us to do.
For a while, Lan Yue said: "It looks like it's getting very troublesome again, brother, what are we going to do, can you feel where the direction indicated by that piece of jade is?" ”
On the way, I replied, "You can't feel it, I'm pretty much like that, but I always feel like I'm going forward, and I've walked a little way anyway, so I'll keep going to the end, if it doesn't work." ”
"Yes, my brother said so, and I don't have anything to say, keep walking."
Lan Yue said, so we continued to move forward, towards the depths of the canyon, the road we walked was relatively rugged, and it was naturally not easy to say that it was not easy to go in this environment along the way.
Immediately, we continued to move forward, and before we knew it, we were stepping deeper and deeper into this deep canyon, surrounded by tall trees that obscured most of the sky.
When I came here, I could feel that the demonic aura here was a little stronger than before, maybe we didn't go in the wrong direction, but we were heading towards the place where the root was.
There are also a lot of demons around here, Lan Yue and I can feel it at this time, or see it with the naked eye, it is still morning, close to noon, some of those demons are hiding in the dense grass and trees nearby, and some are farther in the sky or underground.
It is the same demon type, and there are different types, so we are naturally cautious and move forward.
Although it is a cultivator, it should be a test no matter how you say it here, and you must not be sloppy.
Continuing to move forward for a distance, I suddenly felt that in front of me not far away, a figure was approaching this side, walking a few steps, Lan Yue, who was beside me, also noticed it, looked at me, and said, "Is there someone approaching here?" ”
Hearing this, I nodded: "Yes, pay a little attention." ”
The person who came, he didn't look like a demon or something, and the aura emanating from his body was also extraordinary, and the two of us pretended to be normal and advanced for a short distance, and gradually we could see a person from the other side, on the uneven mountain road.
Because of the fog around us, the vision is not clear, it is difficult to see who the other party is, but it is coming in the opposite direction to us, and after a short distance, we are closer to the other party.
At this point, it could be seen that from the other side was a man wearing a blue and white robe, holding a dusty whisk in his hand, and the man with a black hat on his head, who looked like a monk.
A moment later, we met the monk on this narrow road, and when I saw this, I asked the man in front of me, who looked to be about middle age, and said, "Sir, where did you come from, and where are you going?" ”
Hearing this, the Taoist priest with a small black beard said, "Ask me, I just came from over there."
The Taoist priest pointed in a direction behind him and continued, "Next, we will also walk from this side. ”
As he spoke, he pointed in the direction behind us.
One after the other, it's very simple, but I didn't understand anything, so I said: "There are a lot of demons and the like around here, and the younger generation thinks that this mountain road is steep, have you encountered any risks?" ”
"Oh, you know, you know, this mountain range, which used to be fresh and beautiful, now seems to have been affected by external forces, the air has become turbid, the environment is bad, and it has become a place where demons live, and many people have left here after hearing the wind." The monk said
"In that case, are you going to get out of here too?" I continued
"I'm just passing by, and I just happened to meet you."
Hearing this, I said again: "There are a lot of demons around here, I suggest that if you don't have enough ways to deal with it, you should get out of there as soon as possible, there is the capital of the new century on the side, and there are many guards under the mountain, so it should be relatively safe to get there." ”
"Oh, it's really happy, but don't worry about this way, where I come from and where I go, there is no hindrance, I am free."
At this time, Lan Yue looked at the Taoist priest's expression and temperament, although he looked innocent, but he was extraordinary, and said: "This monk, do you know what is abnormal in this vicinity, we are looking for an abnormal place in this vicinity, which may be related to the reason why the sky is dark and the sky is abnormal. ”
Hearing this, the monk stroked the little beard, and then said: "You said that there are abnormal places, I have encountered some unusual places on the way, but they are very mysterious and dangerous, and this way sees that you are very young, and I don't want you to take risks." ”
"Senior monks, I also know that the road ahead is steep, but we also have a mission, and now if we can find the root of the problem, we will also go to the soup and fire, besides, we also have a little cultivation, and there will still be a way to save our lives." Lan Yue said again
"So, I understand, since you have a mission, and this way also knows that place, it is better to let this way give you a ride." The monk chuckled
Hearing this, I reached out and clasped my fist to bow slightly, and said, "Then thank you very much, you have to show us the way." ”
The monk nodded lightly, then turned and began to walk in the direction he had come from, following us towards the path ahead.
