Chapter 849: The Town
Li Jia's discovery was really shocking, and even Lin Huang felt a little surprised.
"Are you sure you're right? It's a real human, not a monster in disguise?"
"It should be true, the buildings in that town are clearly man-made, and they are still brightly lit. I don't think monsters would be able to build such a human town. Li Jia is very sure of this.
"It can't be the remnants of the ancient era, right?" Shen Tao couldn't help frowning, "If there are surviving humans on this battlefield, it is not impossible to gather together to multiply and slowly establish a town. ”
"Theoretically, it's a possibility. Lin Huang nodded in agreement.
Shen Tao's statement is logically reasonable.
"And this misty area may just provide them with protection from the outside world, and they have passed it down from generation to generation. Li Jia added.
His addition made everyone more and more convinced that these people might really be the remnants of the ancient era.
"Let's go and have a look. We just need a place to stop and find out the news. Greedy Wolf thought about it and made this decision, but he didn't forget to remind him, "Regardless of whether these people are ancient relics or not, everyone should still have vigilance." You must know that we are still at the Seven Star Ruins, and anything can happen. ”
After a brief admonition, the greedy wolf led the group and galloped away in the direction of the town.
It didn't take long for everyone to see the town that Li Jia was talking about.
The area of this town is not large, estimated to be only forty or fifty square kilometers, and the buildings in the town are almost all low houses of red bricks and green tiles, and even two-story ones are rare.
There are red lanterns lit in front of the doors of every house, and what lights up inside is not a power stone, but a burning flame.
"I've seen this kind of lantern in museums, and I remember saying that ordinary people used this for lighting in the Middle Ages. A nine-step habitat couldn't help but speak, "The fuel seems to be made from animal fat. ”
A group of people slowly descended from mid-air.
"It's true that there isn't any energy reaction, and the people here should be ordinary people who don't practice. The greedy wolf finally confirmed what Li Jia said before, and after investigating it himself, he was a little relieved.
Lin Huang noticed that in a room not far away, a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy saw his group descending from the sky through the window.
He turned his head to look in the direction where the young man was, and the young man hurriedly buried his head under the windowsill, and only after a while did he slowly stretch out half of his head and peek at Lin Huang and his party.
Lin Huang smiled at him and nodded, he was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face was tangled for a while, then he opened the window and shouted at Lin Huang, "Are you immortals?"
Lin Huang and his entourage were stunned when they heard this.
"Little ghost ......" Shen Tao was about to say something, but Lin Huang pressed his shoulder and shook his head at him.
Lin Huang took a step forward and smiled at the young man, "We are not immortals, we are cultivators. ”
"But I saw you flying down from the sky, and you are immortals!" said the young man with great certainty.
"Is that what you said?" Lin Huang's figure slowly floated up from the ground and slowly flew to the windowsill.
"You are really immortals!" The young man's eyes lit up twice, as if he saw that Lin Huang was easy to speak, and he was not too afraid, and said to Lin Huang with excitement on his face, "Then you will definitely kill monsters!"
"Monsters?" Lin Huang was stunned again when he heard this, but quickly reacted, "What do you mean by monsters?"
"It's ......," the young man's voice was suddenly interrupted.
"Xiaoyu, who are you talking to?" a woman suddenly pushed open the door to the boy's room.
"Auntie......" The young man hurriedly looked back at the door.
"Who are you?" the woman looked at Lin Huang with a wary expression, and pulled the young man behind her in a few steps.
"Auntie, he's a fairy!" said the young man who was called Xiaoyu with excitement on his face.
"Fairy, liar!" the look of vigilance on the woman's face suddenly intensified.
"It's not a liar, I really see it, he can fly!" Xiao Yu hurriedly defended Lin Huang.
"If you don't leave, I'll call someone to report to the official!" the woman said to Lin Huang with a fierce face, she was already sure that Lin Huang was a liar.
"This eldest sister, you calm down first, I just want to ask about the monsters. Lin Huang's face was full of helplessness.
"I also asked about monsters, I really think I am a fairy!" the woman's face was full of disdain, "I have seen a lot of swaggering and deceiving people, and you are not the only one who can fly, I really don't know that it is a trick to deceive people?! You have the ability to make me fly! If you let me fly, I believe that you are a fairy." ”
"That's what you said. Hearing the woman's words, Lin Huang couldn't help but laugh.
Two Nian Neng silk threads poked out and wrapped around the woman and the young man respectively, Lin Huang's fingers moved slightly, and both of them floated up with their feet off the ground.
"I ......" the woman was about to say something, but suddenly she found that her feet were hanging in the air, and the words that came to her mouth were immediately choked.
"I'm flying!" Xiao Yu saw that he was really floating, and he danced happily and shouted repeatedly.
"Now, can we talk?" After a while, when the woman came back to her senses from the shock, Lin Huang said with a smile.
"It's really a fairy......" the woman murmured.
opened the door and let Lin Huang and his party enter the house, and the woman found that there was not just one immortal this time, but ten.
"Sit, sit......" The woman moved all the stools out of the house with some crampedness, but only eight of them were made, which made her even more uneasy.
"Sister, you don't have to be nervous, we just want to ask a few questions. Lin Huang knew that the woman might have been a little frightened.
"Just ask, I'll tell you everything I know. ”
"Well, we're new to your town, so we don't know much about your situation here. I heard Xiao Yu say, you have monsters here, can you tell us about monsters?" Lin Huang went straight to the point, and Greedy Wolf and the others also pricked up their ears, for fear of hearing something.
"You're here to kill the youkai, that's great!" the woman breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to gush, "There is a black dragon mountain near our town, and there is a particularly powerful youkai on the mountain, which is said to be a one-eyed black dragon. There are dozens of little demons under this black dragon, and each little demon is infinitely powerful. Even the officials of the government need three people to barely compete with one. Every three to five days, these little demons will break into the town and arrest people to eat...... Pity my son, who was dragged away by a wolf demon while hiding under the bed......"
"Eldest sister, what do those little demons look like?" Listening to the woman wipe her tears and tell her story, Lin Huang then asked.
"It's all different, some look like monkeys, some look like wolves, and some can walk like people...... Anyway, they all have sharp teeth and claws, and they are more powerful than tigers!"
Lin Huang and the greedy wolf glanced at each other, and they had roughly determined that the monster in the woman's mouth should be a monster.
"Eldest sister, since there are monsters in this town, why don't you move away?" Lin Huang asked again.
I heard that there was a town some time ago, and the monsters couldn't see it, and every day people died inexplicably, and there was nowhere to hide, and then all the people in the town fled. At least our monsters here can still be seen, and we can find a place to hide. The woman's face was full of helplessness, "The capital is safe, but the distance is too far, and we don't have so much money to go!"
"Why is the capital safe?" Lin Huang understood that there was far more than this one town in this misty area, there were many towns, not only towns, but also more cities where people gathered.
"The capital has walls and guards, of course it is safe!" The woman did not know much about the capital.
After confirming this information, Lin Huang asked a few more questions, but the woman's knowledge was limited, and many things she obviously came from hearsay, and there were many untruths and exaggerations. And many of the things she said had nothing to do with what Lin Huang wanted to know. For example, Xiaoyu's parents were captured by monsters, and they saw him pitifully and adopted him......
Confirming that he couldn't ask anything, Lin Huang and the others left the woman's house.
