Chapter 21: Leaving the Cave City
Bian Yaoxing hurriedly returned, and after seeing the night corpse, he put the space bag in front of his eyes and shook it with a proud face.
"Useless thing! I'm only back now. The Night Corpse laughed and scolded.
Afterwards, the two of them did not stop and returned to the cave city safely. Along the way, Bian Yao's lecture on the night corpse was like a deaf ear, and he didn't listen to a few words, just immersed in the joy of the lost space bag.
Back in the bedroom of the inn, the night corpse stood quietly with his arms crossed, looking at the smiling faces of Bian Yao and He Qingyin, the corners of his mouth overflowed with inexplicable bitterness.
"Spend the last night here tonight and leave Cave City tomorrow. The Night Corpse suddenly spoke.
"Isn't it good to be here, where else are you going?" Bian Yao turned his head and replied, frowning slightly, as if he was reluctant to leave.
"Huangzhou City, do you want to go?" said the night corpse with a smile.
Bian Yao was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at He Qingyin, and finally turned his head to look at the night corpse, blinked his eyes and asked softly, "Is it the Huangzhou City where the emperor is there?"
"Yes, do you want to go?"
"Go~" Bian Yao jumped up excitedly.
For the imperial city of Dream Country, Bian Yao is very yearning!
That night, the night corpse took the two of them to visit the cave city, bought a lot of useful things, and finally the three of them went to the restaurant to eat a fragrant white rice. Perhaps because he was too excited, Bian Yao yelled to drink, but was helped back to the inn by He Qingyin.
The next morning, the weather was a bit overcast.
He Qingyin woke up Bian Yao, and the two of them packed up everything and went to return the guest room with the night corpse. After leaving the "Cloud Tourist Inn", the three of them kept heading east of the city.
Although Xuecheng County is the closest small city to the Imperial City, if you follow the normal itinerary, it will take at least a month to reach Huangzhou City from Xuecheng. Because the distance is very long, you need to pass through mountains, rivers and dense forests on the way, and only when you reach the realm of the Dream King and above can you reach the Imperial City from the Cave City alone without the help of external forces.
There was a market outside the East City Gate, where the Night Corpse hired a carriage, and the three of them got into the carriage and left the cave city in a leisurely manner.
It took about an hour or so for the three of them to get out of the car.
What caught my eye was a very large and long mountain, stretching for more than ten miles, as if shrouded in mist. At the highest point, about a thousand feet, the mountain is covered with green trees, among which there are many birds of prey.
This mountain is located in the east of the cave city and is called "Dongyang".
People who go to Huangzhou City from Cave City generally pass by "Dongyang Mountain". It's a shortcut, and if you take a detour, you can avoid some dangers, but it will take at least three more days.
"Just climb over the hill and walk through a wooded area. Standing at the foot of the mountain, looking at the deep mountains in front of him, the night corpse said lightly.
"Hurry up, hurry up~" Bian Yao shouted impatiently, and ran towards a trail leading to the mountain.
"It's up to you to clear the way, but be careful! Don't get eaten by anything. The Night Corpse said with a strange grin. After He Qingyin on the side heard this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly sped up his speed and chased after Bian Yao in front.
"Slow down~! There are man-eating things on the mountain. He Qingyin rushed to Bian Yao with a red face and said to him breathlessly.
"Don't you listen to the old ghost? Don't believe him, he likes to scare people. Bian Yao said, flicking his face to look at the night corpse behind him, and saw that he was walking leisurely, looking around from time to time as if looking at the scenery.
"But the mountain is so big, it looks like there are fierce beasts in it. He Qingyin said what he thought.
"Hehe~ It doesn't matter. Anyway, he's here, what are you afraid of!" Bian Yao smiled and comforted.
Due to the terrain, the mountain road winds upwards until the afternoon, when the trio reached the summit.
Bian Yao didn't take the right path along the way, but he wanted to pick the wrong way, climbing and jumping, looking extremely excited. The girl's breath was a little sharp, but she didn't feel tired. From the moment she ascended the mountain, she felt supported by an invisible force, and it was very easy for her to walk. Guessing that it was the night corpse, the girl was secretly grateful in her heart.
At this time, the three of them walked to the top of the mountain, and the road was much wider than the rugged path when going up the mountain.
As he walked, he began to pay attention to the scene on both sides of the road, the trees and weeds were slanting and falling, and in some places they could even be described as chaotic, obviously the traces left by the fight. In the depths of the jungle on both sides of the mountain road, the roars of strange beasts were faintly heard from time to time.
"There are some powerful beasts in this mountain, even if you encounter a dream maniac, you may be injured. But if you're lucky, you might be able to have an uneventful journey. When you are unlucky, you may also kill from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. The night corpse followed the two of them and said unhurriedly.
"That's amazing! Why don't you just fly us there? Bian Yao stopped, turned to the night corpse and said.
"Don't you like to climb mountains and see the scenery? Don't worry, there won't be any big trouble during the day, and even if you meet you, you can deal with it. The Night Corpse gave him a roll of the eyes.
Bian Yao didn't say anything more, restrained his excitement, and didn't dare to jump around anymore. He raised his alertness as he walked, noticing the changes in his surroundings.
In this way, it took about a stick of incense to walk.
Suddenly, three figures rushed towards them, and soon they were approaching. The three of them were unkempt, their clothes were torn and bloody, and one of them had half of his arm broken, and he looked very embarrassed! Judging from the speed of several people's figures, these three people were at most in the early stage of the Dream Walker.
"Run!" As they passed by, one of them shouted at Bian Yao and them, and ran down the mountain without looking back.
"Run!" Bian Yao's face was shocked, and he shouted in his mouth, turned around suddenly, grabbed He Qingyin's wrist and was about to slip away.
When Bian Yao was very young, he often heard people talk about how that guy could smash a ten-zhang tall tree with one palm, and even a stone could be easily smashed.
"Such a good opportunity, what are you running?" The night corpse appeared in front of Bian Yao, stretched out his hand to stop Bian Yao, and said with a smile.
"The violent bear is here, what are you stopping me for?" Bian Yao shouted urgently as he looked at the three figures that disappeared in the distance.
"Would you like to eat roasted bear paws?" said the Night Corpse ghost.
"Yes, but just now the three of them ......" Bian Yao frowned and hesitated.
"I'll tell you, it's much better than the meat of a tree wolf! Use the 'Illusory Illusion' well, in fact, this guy is very stupid!" The Night Corpse didn't let him finish his words, and casually threw the "Ice Spirit Knife" to him.
"Roar~" At this time, there was an angry roar from the front.
In a few blinks of an eye, a huge red-haired monster bear appeared in front of Bian Yao, staring at the three of Bian Yao with cyan eyes, looking very scary!
When this "blue-eyed violent bear" saw the person, he stood up and was two feet tall.
"Don't let it get ahead of the curve, attack it. The night corpse suddenly shouted.
After all, Bian Yao has not dealt with strange beasts, and at this point, he has to let go of the idea of escaping first.
"Wang~" The big black dog appeared out of thin air and pounced towards the "blue-eyed violent bear". Bian Yao's figure flashed, and he had already jumped into the forest, quickly circling behind the violent bear.
Suddenly opened his bloody mouth and roared wildly! The blue-eyed violent bear took two sharp steps forward, shook his paw and slapped it towards the big black dog, but the shot was empty.
"Bang~" There was a bang.
The blue-eyed violent bear, who was stunned by the disappearance of the big black dog, was suddenly kicked hard from behind by Bian Yao. However, this blow did not cause any damage to it, only causing the massive size of the Aome Storm Bear to shake slightly twice.
The skin of the blue eye storm bear is thick and thick, especially the back is covered with a layer of armor skin as hard as iron, and ordinary swords can not break it.
The soles of Bian Yao's feet were a little numb, and he was secretly surprised in his heart! The kick he had just made would have been kicked away if it had been a human being. It seems that it is impossible to kill it with bare hands, and you need to use the "Ice Spirit Knife" to do it.
After being attacked, the "blue-eyed bear" felt extremely annoyed and quickly turned around and looked behind him. But as soon as he turned around, he saw a big black dog pounce on him, so he did not hesitate to wave his bear paw again and slap it at the big black dog. Bian Yao took the opportunity to shake his body and flashed behind the "blue-eyed violent bear" again.
A flash of cold light!
The blade slashed diagonally from the back of the "Blue Eye Violent Bear", and the deep mouth of an inch was only oozing a few faint traces of red, which showed the thickness of this beast's skin armor. However, this first knife, Bian Yao did not exert much strength.
In this way, Bian Yao kept using the "Illusory Dream" to carry out confusion tactics, and after distracting the attention of the "Blue Eyes Violent Bear", he attacked from behind.
Pity this "blue-eyed violent bear" The movements were not slow, but they were too stupid. Relying on his physical strength and strength, every time he sees something rushing at him, he subconsciously wants to wave his palm to attack.
Bian Yao's figure kept flashing around the "blue-eyed violent bear", and in a moment's effort, more than 20 deep wounds were cut on it. Catching a glimpse of the red liquid overflowing from the wound, Bian Yao's heart gradually became excited.
Bian Yao jumped to the tree, kicked hard, and jumped up diagonally.
The sword wind is coming, with the air of cold!
A bright red splattered out from the neck of the "Blue-eyed Violent Bear".
"Whew~!"
Finally feeling the obvious pain, the "Blue Eye Storm" let out a roar! It was completely enraged! No matter what it saw, it began to wave its palms incessantly. Within a few moments, more than a dozen trees on both sides of the mountain road were knocked down.
Facing the blue-eyed violent bear in a state of madness, Bian Yao could no longer rely on the "Phantom Dream Shadow" to carry out sneak attack tactics, and could only dodge with red eyes on the side.
"Alas~ It's still far away! It's no problem when you encounter this situation, and it's not so easy to fall down by yourself after it bleeds. The night corpse, who was watching not far away, suddenly sighed.
"If not, what should we do?" asked Bian, who jumped away and turned his head.
"I don't have time for you to slow down, and today I have to walk through the woodland down the mountain. I'll restrain it, and you go and kill it, cut off its feet, and eat it tonight." The Night Corpse took a few steps forward as he spoke, staring at the blue-eyed Violent Bear, his face frozen.
Bian Yao just showed a puzzled look, and his ears suddenly fell silent. Turning his head to look again, the "Blue Eyes Violent Bear", which was originally in a state of madness, had stopped, and was maintaining a strange posture, standing there without moving.
Seeing this, Bian Yao hesitated slightly, turned around and jumped to the restrained "Qingmu Violent Bear", and he could clearly hear a thick wheezing sound coming from its mouth and nose.
With a light "huh", Bian Yao found that the bleeding gradually stopped from the wound on its body. In the face of this guy who was several times taller than himself after standing up, he didn't hesitate any longer, and jumped up suddenly, and the cold and sharp blade slashed through the throat of the blue-eyed violent bear.
"Snort~" Suddenly, blood gushed out.
The "Blue Eye Storm" shook violently, desperately trying to make a sound, but was unsuccessful.
After Bian Yao landed on the ground, he hurriedly jumped away and ran back to He Qingyin's side, the girl had already turned her face away, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Boom~", after struggling for a while, the blue-eyed violent bear finally fell down.
"Dead, go over and cut off the bear's paw. The Night Corpse spoke.
Bian Yao walked towards the violent bear as he said, and soon cut off all the bear's paws, and put them directly into the space bag as soon as his mind moved.
"Get out of here quickly! Soon, the smell of blood here will attract a large number of beasts. The night corpse urged, then took out the gourd and poured two sips of wine.
The three of them hurried away along the mountain road.
