Chapter 27: The Ghost Village
"Tang Qing, Yan Ming, Dong Yanyu, the three of you, take this hill as the center, and carefully search the situation within a radius of fifty miles! Senior Brother Fang and I will build a defensive formation, Kong Fei, if you two immediately collect enough firewood and pile it in the camp!"
As soon as he fell to the ground, Qu Yun quickly commanded, and everyone did not hesitate at all, they each took their orders and left, it was obvious that they were already too familiar with this situation to be familiar with it.
Feng Ruo followed behind Kong Fei, but it was a little strange, because this place was obviously on the edge of Qingyun Mountain, and it was an area infested by mortals, so it stands to reason that there should be no powerful spirit beasts, not to mention that with everyone's cultivation, even the cold mountain wind on the peak of Qingyun Mountain was completely unafraid, how could he still need a lot of firewood to keep warm?
However, these questions are just thinking about it in Feng Ruo's heart, after all, Qu Yun's arrangements are not redundant, in a completely unfamiliar place, you still need to be cautious!
Firewood is extremely easy to collect, there are no mortals living near this hill, there is a large forest around, Feng Ruo and Kong Fei did not deliberately collect any dry firewood, but just took out their respective sword weapons, "Click!" A burst of wild chopping, in the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred trees of different thicknesses were brought down, not to mention lighting a bonfire, even building a small fortress is not a problem.
"Hey, Senior Brother Kong, have you been assigned to chop wood every time?" Feng Ruo put the Qingfeng sword weapon on his back, picked up two trees that were the thickness of a person, and walked towards the camp so easily.
Kong Fei was just about to answer, but when he saw Feng Ruo's move, he was taken aback and said, "Feng Ruo, why is your strength so great? It's almost time to catch up with Senior Brother Qu!"
"Ahh
"Could it be that this is the effect of the Flying Phoenix Bracelet?" Feng Ruo thought to himself, he knew very well that although his physique had increased greatly in the past, he could only barely pick up more than a thousand catties of heavy objects, and he would definitely not be able to do it so easily, of course, if he used mana, it was another matter.
As for the reason for this, of course Feng Ruo would not say anything to Kong Fei, but just laughed proudly twice, and continued to carry these trees.
The nearly 100 trees were sealed in just a few moments and moved to the camp, which was really nothing to them, and the next thing was very simple, which was to cut these trees and finally split them into wood that could burn quickly.
After all this was completed, Feng Ruo directly took out the Moon Reflecting Short Knife, and after a knife, the raging flames "whirred" on those woods, no way, the flames on the flame knife were formed by the combination of mana and the Five Elements Stone, even a piece of ice would ignite, not to mention just some damp wood.
During this period, Feng Ruo's attention was mostly on Fang Fan and Qu Yun, and the two of them were arranging defensive formations, but for this kind of mysterious thing, Feng Ruo couldn't understand it at all, but Kong Fei could still understand it halfway.
"This is the Rushan formation among the eight basic formations, which can be used to enhance the defense of the suit, and can be used alone, the effective range is within a radius of thirty zhang, the duration and defense strength depend on the number and grade of the embedded Five Element Stones, what Senior Brother Qu and Senior Brother Fang are now arranging belongs to the lowest level, and only five low-grade Five Element Stones can be embedded overnight!"
"Oh! It turns out that the Five Elements Stone still has this effect!" Feng Ruo said with some surprise, and now he understood why Qu Yun and the others had a lot of Five Element Stones each time, but they would soon disappear, it turned out that in addition to being used to refine and strengthen weapons and suits, these Five Elements Stone also had this purpose!
"That's natural, in fact, every time you hunt, the consumption of the Five Elements Stone is the largest, this time the Rushan Formation is only inlaid with five, if it is in other dangerous areas, it has to be inlaid with at least twenty! In addition, those battle mounts also have to eat a low-grade Five Elements Stone every month, if the net worth is worse, they can't even afford to raise it!" Kong Fei said very frustrated at this time.
"That's it!" Feng Ruo also sighed with Kong Fei, before he thought that he would not have much problem buying a vulture mount, but now it seems that he still needs to think about it carefully, after all, the white feather crane only eats a low-grade Five Elements Stone in a year, and the vulture mount is twelve times that of the white feather crane!
While speaking, Qu Yun and Fang Xuan had already completed the arrangement of the Rushan Formation, and at this time, as the magic trick in Fang Huan's hand was played, suddenly within a radius of thirty zhang, a yellow light lit up, and it looked like a yellow cover.
"Tsk! good thing!" Feng Ruo sighed in his heart, now he wants to become a disciple of the Qingyun Sect more and more, because as long as he joins the Qingyun Sect, these basic formations and everything will be taught for free!
"Fortunately, I now have a cheap master, and it won't be long before I can get my wish!"
Feng Ruo was still thinking about it, Tang Qing and the other three who were patrolling around had already returned with their respective vulture mounts, but looking at their faces, something seemed to be wrong.
"What's the situation?" Qu Yun immediately asked after putting the three of them into the formation.
"We don't know very well, but this place seems to be a bit evil! We found a mortal village dozens of miles away, it is supposed that this time should be the time when those mortals are cooking on fire, but we found that this village is extremely quiet, just like a ghost domain!" Tang Qing said with a somewhat pale face.
"Originally, we just thought that this village might have been warned, but when we got closer, we found that the houses in this village did not show any signs of destruction at all, and we checked a few houses, and there were no living creatures in them, not even a single fly, and the clothes, furniture, and food in them were all gone, as if those villagers had nothing with them, and they all disappeared!"
After listening to Tang Qing's words, everyone's faces were a little ugly, although everyone had been hunting spirit beasts since childhood, and they were all extremely bold, but now it was the first time they had encountered such a strange thing, so they couldn't help but be nervous!
"Perhaps—maybe those villagers have gone out to play! Why should we bother with them, camp here for the night, and go to Tiandang Mountain tomorrow!" Kong Fei suggested, apparently a little scared.
"Yes, yes, those mortals have nothing to do with us, we are just passing by!" Yan Ming also followed, he saw the strange village with his own eyes just now, and he was still a little hairy.
"This matter is not that simple!" At this time, Qu Yun frowned and said, his eyes looked at the fiery red Luo in the west, and finally sighed, "It's okay!
