Chapter 155 A small border town

Jiangyuan City is a small border city in Jingzhou, with a population of only a few hundred thousand, which is larger than ordinary towns.

In the southeast of the city, there is a vast and boundless forest called the Forest of Mist, which is extremely dense with trees and ancient trees, and is shrouded in a cloud and mist all year round, hence the name.

The Misty Forest is extremely wide, the jungle is dense, and there are all kinds of terrifying monsters living there, which are very dangerous. In addition, there are endless treasures of heaven and earth, waiting for people to go in and discover.

The history of Jiangyuan City is not very long, it is less than a few hundred years. This is due to the proximity of this place to the Misty Forest, and countless warriors have entered it to hunt demon beasts, collect medicinal herbs, and obtain resources. The number of people increased, and a human settlement was slowly formed, so Jiangyuan City was born.

In fact, there are many similar castles around the Misty Forest, all of which have slowly developed due to the warriors who entered the forest staying and living around.

The city lord of Jiangyuan is surnamed Su, named Su Yixuan, and he is the only innate powerhouse in this city. After all, the scale of such a small border city is not large, and it is already good to have an innate powerhouse in charge.

............

At this time, within the Su house.

City Lord Su was waiting anxiously in a small courtyard full of flowers and plants, and after a while, the door opened, and an old man came out, and City Lord Su hurriedly greeted him, and immediately asked, "Doctor, how is the situation?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "No, I can't cure your daughter's terminal illness, and I can't do anything about it." ”

City Lord Su's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Is there really no way?"

"Alas, in fact, speaking of which, the Taiyin Pulse is not really hopeless, but the person who can save your daughter, I'm afraid you won't be able to invite it. After saying that, the old man shook his head and left.

The city lord of Su couldn't help but look desperate.

He had five sons, but only one daughter, who was very beautiful, fairy-like, gentle as jade, and well-behaved. Therefore, he loved this only daughter very much and regarded her as the pearl of his palm.

However, as the so-called red face and thin life, God gave her amazing beauty and beautiful family background, but also gave her supreme pain and disaster. Since the day she was born, she has suffered from the Taiyin Absolute Pulse, to the Yin to the Cold, according to the records of the world, this is an incurable disease, there is no cure, and she basically cannot live past the age of 20.

This year is her nineteen years old, and she is a girl like a flower, but she is facing death, what a cruel thing.

For this reason, the city lord of Su was very troubled and invited countless famous doctors to treat his daughter, but the results were all helpless.

Today, the city lord of Su finally invited a famous doctor in Jingzhou, the one just now, and the result was obvious, but there was still no effect.

He sighed, and after going out to send the famous doctor away, he walked back silently, looked at his daughter lying on the hospital bed, and couldn't help but say bitterly: "Shizuka, I'm sorry for you, I can't cure your illness." ”

Su Jingxiang was wearing a snow-white dress, her face was very pale, her temperament was like an empty valley orchid, quiet and distant, and she looked like a person in a painting.

As if she looked down on life and death, she smiled faintly: "Father doesn't have to blame himself for this. My Taiyin Absolute Pulse is a terminal disease, there is no cure, and Providence is like this, what can I do in vain?"

City Lord Su's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and he said with pity: "It's all useless to blame me! Do you still have any wishes you want to do? I will definitely make it happen for you!"

Su Jingxiang looked into the distance, and said, "I want to go out for a walk." ”

City Lord Su immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it immediately, where do you want to go?"

Su Jingxiang said: "My whole life has been so dull and hopeless, and now I am about to die, but I want to see something different. ”

"Oh, what do you mean?"

"There aren't any good places to go around here, and there's just a misty forest that's famous. So, I wanted to go to the Misty Forest. ”

"What? Go to the Misty Forest? That's too dangerous! No!" the Jiangyuan City Lord decisively refused.

"Couldn't my dying wish come true? I'm dying anyway, so what's there to be afraid of? What's more, as long as I don't go into the depths of the Misty Forest, there shouldn't be any danger. ”

"This ......" Jiangyuan City Lord was still a little hesitant, feeling that something was wrong.

"Please!" Su Jingxiang pleaded.

Seeing his daughter's demeanor like this, the Jiangyuan City Lord's heart softened, and he nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange for the guards to take you into the misty forest, you must be careful not to enter the depths of the forest." ”

............

In the early morning of the next day, a group of powerful guards surrounded a carriage like a moon and quietly left Jiangyuan City and headed for the direction of the Misty Forest.

After walking for a long time, they reached the edge of the misty forest, and the commander of the guards said, "Miss, we have arrived, come down." You can't take a carriage when you enter it, you have to walk, and you need to be extremely cautious. ”

The car door opened, and a gentle and demure woman stepped out.

Su Jingxiang looked at the forest not far away, took a deep breath, felt the unique atmosphere here, and suddenly his heart suddenly brightened, and the boredom in his chest cleared, and muttered: "Is this the Misty Forest? It's so quiet, the scenery is so beautiful." ”

The commander of the guards looked at her with pity, and the weak woman in front of her was not only beautiful, but also very kind. Although he was in danger, he often helped the weak people in the city, like the incarnation of a bodhisattva.

In the small courtyard where she lives, I heard that there are all kinds of flowers and plants, and there are countless cute little animals, which is really a fairy-like character.

He said softly: "Miss, don't look at the scenery here is so beautiful, but it is very dangerous inside, there are many demon beasts alive, and you can't take it lightly at that time." ”

Su Jingxiang nodded and said, "Everything is under the orders of Commander Zhang, I will definitely not come nonsense." ”

Commander Zhang said: "It's not too early now, let's go in." However, I can only go around the periphery, and my strength is not good, so I am afraid that I dare not go into the depths of the forest. ”

In the entire Jiangyuan City, there is only one innate powerhouse, and that is the Su City Lord. Commander Zhang naturally does not have such a strong strength, his cultivation is the tenth layer of the day after tomorrow, there is no problem in dealing with ordinary demon beasts, and he is also one of the best in Jiangyuan City, otherwise City Lord Su would not have arranged for him to protect Su Jingxiang.

"Don't be embarrassed, just go around the periphery, and don't put yourself in danger for me. Let's go inside. "Su Jingxiang is very empathetic.

After the group was equipped, they walked into the dark and deep forest. The further you go inside, the taller and denser the trees become. The ancient trees are towering and obscuring the sky, as if you have entered another world.

Su Jingxiang looked left and right, looking a little excited, she had never seen such a scene, and she felt a little adventurous, very exciting.

After walking for a while, suddenly, a huge wild boar rushed out from the depths of the forest and launched an attack on the group.

The boar was very large, with a green face and fangs, a head with two horns, and black scales on its back, and it looked very hideous.

"Ahh

"Miss, don't panic, it's just a low-level iron-backed pig, let me solve it. Commander Zhang shouted, holding a big knife, jumped up suddenly, slashed over, and instantly split the head of this huge demon beast in half.

"Ah——, that's terrifying. Su Jingxiang screamed again, frightened by this bloody scene again.

Commander Zhang looked at Su Jingxiang's constant screaming appearance, and said helplessly: "Miss, can you still hold it?" In the misty forest, you often encounter demon beasts, and the scene may be very bloody. If you're not feeling comfortable, why don't we go back? ”

Su Jingxiang quickly calmed down, shook her head stubbornly and said, "No, don't go back." I was able to get through it. ”

"Alright then, let's keep walking. So the group continued to walk inside.

Next, they continued to encounter all kinds of demon beasts, but they were basically low-level and intermediate-level, there was no threat, and they were easily killed by Commander Zhang and other guards.

"The strength of the demon beasts on the periphery of the misty forest is not strong, and the innate level demon beasts basically will not come out, and generally speaking, there will be no danger. Commander Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as you don't go into the forest, you'll be fine. Their luck can't be so bad, but they will encounter innate demon beasts.

After a series of encounters, Zhang Jingxiang seemed to have adapted to the environment here, and she was no longer afraid when she saw the demon beasts and the bloody scene, but was extremely excited, and her originally pale face was red at this time.

"Alright, miss, it's getting late, we're going back. Commander Zhang said.

Zhang Jingxiang looked a little unsatisfied, reluctantly looking back at the surrounding scenery, the depths of the forest were incomparably silent, and it seemed to hide endless secrets, which made people curious.

"How wonderful would it be if I had such a long time as yours and could cultivate, be free to go anywhere, hunt demon beasts, and explore all over the world?"

"Hey......" Commander Zhang and the others couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Jingxiang is not a vexatious person after all, taking into account everyone's feelings, she said: "In this case, let's go back, don't let my father worry." ”

At this moment, the bushes parted, and out came an old man with a thin face, his eyes were green, and he was full of black gas, and he laughed and said, "When you meet me, do you want to go back?"
