Chapter 4 From now on, there will be no red feathers in the world
On the way back to the village, Akabane felt the irritable magic in his body that he had not yet fully accepted. In order to absorb it faster, he directly used his magic power to suppress the chaotic magic that contained emotions.
Under the deterrence of Akabane's magic power, those magic powers are a lot more honest. Seeing the effect, he began to drain those emotions while absorbing the pure magic.
Back in the village, Chi Yu used his perception to find that Chen Lao and they were nervously guarding an ancestral hall!
Walking to the door of the ancestral hall, everyone knelt down in a neat posture in front of a god statue! Seeing this, Chi Yu smiled helplessly, the person on the god statue, if nothing else, was the person who came to save them more than 20 years ago in Chen Lao's mouth.
There was a knock on the door, and everyone shuddered when they heard the voice. When they turned around and saw that it was Akabane, everyone's hearts relaxed.
The next moment, the scene was a little uncontrollable, Chen Lao and them, almost in tears, ran up, grabbed Chi Yu's arm and asked, "What's wrong?
For the concern of Chen Lao and the villagers, Akabane smiled and told them that it was okay, and then told them that the demon had been destroyed. Hearing the news, everyone cheered.
Some people even want to invite Akabane to their home to entertain him, and then introduce their daughters or something! For the enthusiastic villagers, Akabane refuses them one by one!
And at this moment, looking at the red feather who couldn't catch it, Old Chen's wrinkled face was overflowing with a smile.
"Okay, okay, you all go home first, Chi Xiaoyou and I still have something to say. At noon, everyone will come to the village center to celebrate!"
Hearing what Chen Lao said, everyone also dispersed with interest. And after seeing that everyone was gone, Chen Lao pulled Chi Yu into the ancestral hall.
Seeing that Chen Lao looked like he had something on his mind, Chi Yu knew that this Chen Lao had something to say. However, after thinking about it, he probably knew what this old man was going to say, after all, his melancholy expression couldn't hide from Chi Hane, who had lived for hundreds of years.
"Akabane, remember the monster in the center of the terracotta land that I mentioned when I told you about the demon. Since the orb is no more, then it's, most likely... Speaking of which, Old Chen didn't continue, they were all people who understood, and they had already said this, how could Chi Yu not understand what he meant.
Even if Chen Lao didn't say it, Akabane himself would go. If there really is a monster, and it can reach the level of the scourge party, then the power of that monster will definitely make Akabane even more high-level!
With this idea, of course, Chi Yu agreed without hesitation: "Old Chen, I will go and see this, after all, I also have the intention of knowing it." It's just that I don't know anything about it, so I'm afraid I'm going to suffer if I go like this!"
Hearing the meaning of Chi Yu's words, Chen Lao began to think back to the time when the monster was making waves!
"Alas, come to think of it, it was really a dark age at that time! On the terracotta continent where there were no strong people, it became a battlefield for fighting, a paradise for monsters! There were no rules, and anyone could make a mistake here! At that time, one day, there was no light in the heavens and the earth, but it was extremely hot and dry! Just when people were surprised, a fire that rose to the sky suddenly illuminated half of the continent! On that day, everyone saw a fiery snake rising up from the sky under the red earth. It soars below the clouds, sometimes roaring, sometimes spitting flames!"
Of course, the reason for the lack of rumors is that once you see that monster, you will never come back!
Hearing such a vague impression, even if Akabane imagined a thousand possibilities in his mind, he couldn't really be sure!
It's useless to think about it so much, and tomorrow, after he leaves the village, it's not too late to meet that monster again! After all, Akabane came to rest for the purpose of not even closing his eyes.
Thinking of this, Chi Yu greeted Chen Lao for a while and went back to sleep in the hut with him!
Lying on the stone bed, Akabane, who had not yet fallen asleep, stared blankly at the ceiling. I saw him stretch out his palm, as if trying to grab something. He shook his palm, and a sense of powerlessness dominated him.
Smiling self-deprecatingly, Akabane looked at the dark ceiling with a slightly sloppy look and said to himself: "As soon as the red phoenix plummets, it becomes a homeless crow? Will there be a day when the docile feather rebels against the Lord? Demon King, you must be looking for me too! From today on, there will be no more brave and good fighters in the world who are born and die for the demons, and there is only the "reverse feather" in the vast divine land!
When the words fell, Reverse Yu couldn't hold back his sleepiness anymore and fell asleep!
At noon, Reverse Yu was called up by Chen Lao.
"Little friend, I'm waiting for you. Everyone wants to celebrate this, and if you toss all night, you must be hungry!" Chen Lao said to Zhi Yu like a confidant woman.
The reverse feather who had just woken up didn't feel it. However, listening to what Chen Lao said, coupled with the fragrant aroma, even if he is a demon who doesn't need to eat, it is difficult to endure the itch in his heart.
happily agreed, and Reverse Yu rushed to celebrate with Chen Lao.
When they arrived at the center of the village, everyone was waiting for Reverse Feather with antichagration. Seeing this scene, a strange feeling rose in Reverse Yu's heart, which he had never experienced before!
At this point, he didn't know how to describe his feelings. Excitement, a sense of belonging, or the simple gratitude of the villagers passed on to his heart!?
These will not be known until later! The former Reverse Yu only has cultivation in his eyes! It is no exaggeration to say that the Reverse Yu, who has lived for hundreds of years, does not even have a close friend or couple!
This is one of the few times he has experienced such a thing as emotion!
The celebration ended soon after everyone dispersed. At this moment, Reverse Yu wanted to say goodbye to Old Chen. However, Chen Lao took a step ahead of him and chatted with Reverse Yu.
"Little friend, our small mountain village can't keep aspiring young people like you. From the first time I saw you, I knew that you were an ambitious child. You'll have to be very careful when you go to find that monster. If there's a goodbye day, be sure to bring a drink and get drunk with me. Chen Lao, who spoke, wiped his reddish eyes, and then slowly took out a black cloth wrapped in a circle from his coat pocket.
"You can accept this, the things handed down by our Chen family ancestors have gone through ten generations, and we haven't used it once. Come to think of it, even in my generation, there is no chance for it to see the light of day again. So, this is a thank you gift, I have a hunch that one day in the future, you will definitely use it!"
After saying goodbye to a lot, Reverse Yu reluctantly left the small mountain village.
.........
Not long after leaving the village, Reverse Yu opened the black package that Chen Lao gave him and looked at it!
This is a deep and deep pearl. He didn't know exactly what it did. After living for so long, it was the first time he had seen such a beautiful bead. Reverse Yu still wants to continue researching. However, as soon as his magic touched the bead, it automatically bounced away.
Seeing this scene, Reverse Yu sighed. There is only one explanation for this situation, that is, he is not yet able to reach the strength to solve the mystery in this bead.
After some fiddling with it to no avail, he put away the beads with interest and continued on his way.
Along the way, the reverse feather ran fast. Those beasts, spirits, and other things that they encountered all became a trace of power in Reverse Feather's body.
This is already the extremely restrained state of the reverse feather, if you really want to change it to before, as long as he walks through, a radius of 100 meters, absolutely no grass grows!
Feeling the state in his body, the already full magic bead faintly has a tendency to break through. However, there is one thing, only Reverse Yu himself knows, when he turns back, the magic bead does not know how much bigger than the original low-level demon!
This harvest surprised him, and faintly, a sense of blessing in disguise rose from his heart! After all, the bigger the orb, the more magic power you have, the stronger you are!
Now Reverse Yu can say for sure that with his experience and means, he can easily defeat any demon of the same level!
Thinking of this, the corners of Reverse Feather's mouth curled slightly. Walking out of the dense forest, a piece of terracotta appeared in front of him.
Looking at the boundless plains, Zhi Yu took out the map that Chen Laosai gave him when he was leaving!
To the east is the town, and in front of the northeast of the current location of the reverse feather is the standard danger zone! Presumably, these places indicated by red crosses are either dangerous or the areas where the monster frequently moves!
After thinking about it, it was just after noon, and it was about to be evening, so Reverse Yu simply didn't worry, went to the town to find out more about the situation, and rested for one night!
It's better to act, and the reverse feather who said to go quickly ran towards the direction of the town.
Very open, set aside the space that was baked by the sun to distort, and a small town appeared straight in front of Reverse Yu's eyes.
Looking at this ordinary town without even a city gate, Akabane already wondered how this town had survived in this panicked place for so long.
Of course, these thoughts are useless, and if you want to solve the doubts in your heart, you have to go in.
Walking into the town, Reverse Yu found that this town is not only ordinary on the surface, but also on the inside, it is no different from an ordinary town!
Selling things, shouting at the guest officer, on the busy street, everyone has no sense of disobedience, they are ordinary and suspicious.
After confirming it again and again, Reverse Yu really believed that this was indeed an ordinary town.
After walking around for a while, there is nothing that attracts Reverse Feather. He was looking for a place to stay, but suddenly found something that interested him!
On the wall of a tavern, two lines of words are written on a brightly colored white piece of paper.
