The carriage was noisy, and from time to time someone else came to catch the carriage, and the road was very pleasant.

Every time the meal arrived, several people got out of the car and skillfully cleaned the ground and picked up firewood. Xia Ling took out the stove to make a fire to cook, and Oscar helped him on the side.

To say that Oscar is also very talented in cooking, as early as a few years ago, he learned how to cook all kinds of food from Xia Ling, and his current skills can be said to be no less than Xia Ling.

Now seeing that Lingshan is so powerful, Oscar, who is full of research spirit, is even more pestering to learn.

The days passed so plainly, except for getting off the carriage at the meal point and resting the horses, everyone read it in a hurry for several days. If you are in the city at night, you will stay in a hotel, and if you are in the wilderness, you will camp on the spot.

Three days later, the group came to the junction of the Silves Kingdom and the territory directly under Tiandou.

This is not the fault of the feudal system, which will divide a huge and complete national territory into small pieces.

The situation of the Heaven Dou Empire is not bad, at least the Snow Night Emperor has a million heavy troops, and the locations of several kingdoms happen to be in the realm of bordering the Star Luo Empire.

If it's like the continent of Europa in the Middle Ages in the previous life, it's really a wax.

Layers of rights are divided, from the kingdom of the principality to the knights and barons, and the division of a country is called a fragment.

Forced by some external forces, the Heaven Dou Empire, which had to enforce the sub-feudal system, was one of the two giants of the Douluo Continent, although it had a bright appearance. But in reality, the internal problems are very serious.

For example, the Wuhun Hall and his party are now at this internal border intersection.

The scarcity of people and the lack of productivity have resulted in the vast majority of human resources having to be distributed around the city defense, capital, major cities and other places.

As an internal frontier area, no civilians would want to settle in such a place where something could happen at any time, and no cities or villages would be built, and naturally neither side would send valuable soldiers to manage it.

This kind of area in the middle of the gap between the two places has become the three-regardless zone, like a certain golden triangle, where all kinds of people of the three religions and nine streams are active.

"Seeing that it's almost noon, Brother Ling, shouldn't we stop and rest, and then continue to hurry after a big meal?" Ma Hongjun, who was replaced by a driver again, touched his hungry stomach and turned around to ask.

Xia Ling lifted the curtain of the carriage, took out a small sundial to estimate the time, and agreed to Ma Hongjun's proposal.

"Then find a place to park on the back slope, let's make a fire and cook."

Not to mention the wilderness of this place, there are not even a few trees that can be used to make a fire, so Yan and Evil Moon can only fly farther away to collect wood.

There was a lot of wood in the processed ingredients Summer Ling's ring, but there were only a few bags of homemade charcoal in case of emergency.

After a while, Yan and Evil Moon rushed over empty-handed, their faces solemn.

"Huh? Why did you two come back so quickly this time? Are the trees here good for firewood? Hu Liena asked suspiciously.

"No, we didn't chop wood, we found traces of suspected evil soul masters." Evil Moon took a deep breath.

"Evil Soul Master? Elaborate? Xia Ling put down the work in his hand.

Theoretically, there shouldn't be so many evil soul masters in Douluo I's timeline. The vast majority of them were either killed by the Wuhun Hall or thrown into the Killing Capital, or they entered the Killing Capital to find death.

But since he entered the Martial Spirit Palace, not to mention what he didn't know, was that he had personally experienced the task of hunting down the Evil Soul Master, and in just six years, it had been as high as dozens of times. There is clearly a big problem with this.

In the current era, the total number of soul masters registered in the two empires and the Martial Soul Hall is only about 100,000, and seven-tenths of them are controlled by the Martial Soul Palace.

The remaining 30,000 soul masters have to deduct the soul masters of the sect, the scattered soul masters, and the official soul masters controlled by the two empires of Heaven Dou and Xingluo, and so on.

So how could there be such a large number of the remaining evil soul masters?

Moreover, in the timeline of the original Douluo I, the vast majority of evil soul masters did not cultivate by sucking human blood and slaughtering mortals like in later generations. Many people just rely on the identity of soul masters to commit crimes, and it can be said that there is basically no cultivation through evil means such as killing.

But judging from these tasks that Xia Ling has personally participated in in recent years, almost one-tenth of the evil soul masters are cultivating with human lives, which is simply incredible, and it stands to reason that such a number of real evil soul masters should not appear at all.

"That's right, Yan and I just went to cut down trees on the hill next door, and after going around to the back, we found a small valley with an extremely strong smell of blood."

"Can you be sure it's human blood?" Xia Ling asked.

"Sure, don't worry, it's definitely the smell of human blood." Yan replied, "It's not been once or twice that our brothers have fought with the evil soul master over the years, and we can clearly distinguish the breath of human blood from the breath of other blood. ”

"And there is an evil smell coming from inside the valley that makes us feel very uncomfortable. We were afraid of startling the snake, so we didn't dare to investigate deeply, so we didn't come back first. ”

Xia Ling hesitated, this time they traveled without a teacher, everything was up to him.

"You wait here first, and I'll see for myself. I'm strong, and I still have nine turns to step on the sky, and if there is a problem, I can evacuate in time. ”

He didn't directly propose that a few people should be directly side by side, and they would raise such reckless words to the ashes of the evil soul master.

The enemy's strength is unknown, and it is located in a hidden valley in this kind of three-way zone. It looks like the location of the evil soul masters' lair, and everything is still stable.

Hearing this, several people nodded. After a few years of getting along, they have long been completely convinced of Xia Ling.

"Stay safe." Zhu Zhuqing asked uneasily.

Summer Lingyile, "Hehe, rest assured." ”

This little kitten still cares about me.

At his current speed, he ran wildly, and it didn't take long for him to come to the valley where the two of Evil Moon said they were back.

It's said to be a valley, but from above, it's a big crack. But when you look closer, the lower you go, the wider you go inside.

This reminded him of an ancient passage he had once learned: "From the mouth is like that." At the beginning, it is extremely narrow, and only then can it be passed. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. ”

He got a little closer, and the slightest smell of blood wafted up the cracks, obviously it was impossible that the land was flat inside, and the houses were like good fields, and there were beautiful ponds and silk bamboos.

Xia Ling took off the weight-bearing soft armor on his body and put it in the ring, moved his body, and returned to his peak state.

Approaching the edge of the crack, he cautiously released his divine sense, scanning the interior of the small valley inch by inch.

Just as he was gradually approaching the bottom of the valley, the terrifying sight that came back from his divine consciousness shocked even him, who usually prided himself on being steady.
