Chapter 251: Swamp Entry
Yu Kuan's discomfort gradually subsided, panting, Xue Tong's previous grasp paralyzed his whole body, his eyes were black and his brain hurt, and he didn't even start protecting himself when he fell, and he almost broke his bones.
The monk only needs to be vigilant, and the protection is there, and Yu Kuan is not in his mind, so he has such a result. Xue Tong patted him on the shoulder, and a warm current poured into his limbs, and Yu Kuan's blackened face finally returned to a pale green color.
"I didn't expect Tianqi to have such a peculiar nation as Ge Xian," Xue Tong said.
"Tianqi Tianqi, the wonder of the world, Senior Xue and we are in the car," Huang Pei said. She went out for the first time and took a sheep cart with her people for sightseeing.
"You don't have to take the car, it's slow and time-saving." Xue Tong said with a smile.
"Yes, we need to rush back as soon as possible, the threat of the Blood Flame Sect is imminent." Hu Zhaokun said.
"You two take my boat, and on the way to talk about the things of Yuan Yuan and Tianqi." Xue Tong pointed to Huang Pei and the young man beside her.
The two were present, Huang Pei didn't talk nonsense, and Hu Zhaokun didn't stop him. …… Jingcui City, a mountain city of 100,000 people, where the Ge Miao tribe is located.
The endless primeval dense forest, divided by lakes and rivers, Jingcui City is surrounded by water on three sides, 500 zhang high mountains in the north of the city, between the undulating flat slopes, tens of thousands of thick and sturdy wooden houses, accommodating nearly one percent of the population of the Ge Miao people.
Hu Zhaokun and Huang Pei live in Guju Village, 400 miles away from Jingcui, with a population of nearly 10,000. The walled wall is made of stone and wood, nearly ten zhang high, and several half-high stone pile walls around the periphery increase protection.
The top of the wall is as wide as one zhang, and the walled buildings are built every two miles, and monks are arranged to be on duty day and night. In Guju Village, there are many wooden houses, the mound in the center of the village, and several huge bow and ballista carts, which are covered by no dead ends.
"What a big stockade, a heavy fortress!" Xue Tong jumped off the boat, planning to pay the money to get the license and go to the northeast of the Yuanmiao Realm.
But I saw a cart of corpses of Ge Miao's warriors dragged into the walled gate! The death was extremely miserable, the body was mutilated, most of the faces were covered in blood, the eyeballs fell off, or half of the head was cut off.
The deceased was not a warrior from the village, but was discovered by a patrol and brought back to the nearest Guju. This kind of thing happened near Guju, I don't know if it has another meaning, people with a little brain will associate it, and it may be related to the fact that more than half a year ago, the Guju monk killed the people of the Blood Flame Sect.
Hu Zhaokun turned his face and walked towards the depths of the village, where there lived a clan master from Jingcui who assisted in the defense of Guju Village.
"Where to pay" Before it was time to meddle with things, Xue Tong was in a hurry to leave, so he asked Huang Peidao. Ge Xian Baizhai, all able to get a license, indicate the date, indicating that the money has been paid.
"The seniors didn't stay for a few days, we have a lot of taverns here, and the specialties of the jungle are also very good." Huang Pei invited.
"Come back in a few days, the dispute between Guju and the Blood Flame Sect seems to be not easy to solve, you should be careful."
"Well, thank you for reminding me, don't forget to come to my house when the seniors come back, I have the best flowers and fruits."
"Hehe, if you come to Guju, try your wine!"
"Girls, drink less." Xue Tong shook his head and said. Huang Pei took him and completed the formalities. Xue Tong handed over one million spirit stones, received Zhang Yuyuan's outline map and a round wooden plaque, and Ge Miao, who received the money, said: "Please leave by yourself when the time limit expires, otherwise it will be verified by the patrol team and paid five times." ”
"If you are trapped in the abyss and escape for three or five years, then what will you do?" asked Xue Tong.
"The spirit stone magic weapon is confiscated, it is really insufficient, and it will be released." In the early days of doing things, he spoke bluntly and had a good temper.
After going out, Huang Pei said: "What did the seniors do with this kind of person, they really delayed Chenguang, patted their butts and left, where did they come from so many patrols, and they happened to meet them." ”
"Well, I paid a lot of money, and I'm worthy of the Ge Miao clan." Xue Tong smiled. …… Eight hundred miles away from Guju, the fog in front of him is getting thicker and thicker, and it has reached the periphery of the abyss.
For tens of thousands of years, countless people have come to the abyss, all kinds of methods have been tried, there are many dead, but there are no big secrets.
It is rumored that when flying directly at low altitude, you will inexplicably encounter a whirlwind in the vast fog and fall headlong; Walking through the forest, the compass needle does not move, and it is easy to get lost on rainy days, and you don't know where you are.
Xue Tong simply rode on the white tiger and let the spirit tiger walk.
"Spirit pets feel different from people, and may take a different route!" The forest is damp and dark, and where the ancient trees are sparse, there are mottled shadows, and the white tiger gently crosses the shrubs and grasses and advances in the big rainforest.
After walking like this for several days, I came to a rare clearing, where trees fell, streams flowed, and there were several huge lying rocks by the water.
Xue Tong noticed that the white tiger seemed to be coming with a purpose, and he saw hoof prints and the hard hair of the demon beast from time to time along the way.
But the level of the demon beast is not high. The white tiger suddenly pricked up his ears and snorted roughly.
"It's just a deer, go it!" Xue Tong jumped off the back of the tiger, and the white tiger roared, rushing into the dense forest like crazy.
Soon, a blue thunderbolt arc lit up in the forest. The elk that was chased by the white tiger jumped with lightning and lightning, gathered into lightning, and bombarded the fierce tiger that flew towards it.
With just one slap of the white tiger's giant palm, the thunder light scattered and splashed out, biting the elk's neck.
"You also eat the demon deer in the later stage, it's really boring." Xue Tong muttered, the beast corpse he prepared for the White Tiger was at least an innate masterpiece.
The white tiger dragged the deer carcass and gnawed on the stream.
"Oh, it tastes better if you catch it yourself!" Xue Tong shook his head, leaned on the lying stone, and raised his spirit. After the kung fu of half-burnt incense, there was movement in the upper reaches of the stream.
One tall and one short, flew down the stream. Xue Tong hurriedly collected the white tiger and the deer corpse.
"Where did you come from, why are you making such a loud noise!" The short monk frowned. Xue Tong looked ashamed and shut up and didn't answer.
He really didn't know how to answer, and his mind was racing. The short monk had a greasy round face, and in the early days of the grandmaster, the tall man had a yellowish complexion, his eyes were like falcons, and his aura was a little stronger than that of the short one.
"This kind of practice is very easy to attract patrols, and it is purely asking for trouble." The short man continued to blame.
"Yes, but what if Ge Miao is here, it's really unpleasant, Lao Tzu will kill it!" Xue Tong said viciously.
"Let's go, it's hard to get some people to do big things, and don't make extraneous branches in the future." The tall monk said suddenly.
did not ask Xue Tong about his origin. The short one is no longer verbose, but follows the tall one and goes up the stream. Xue Tong's demeanor is brainless, you must know that Ge Miao's five patrol teams are impermanent, each team is equipped with two grandmasters, and the remaining eight or nine are congenital, patrolling and collecting at the same time, which ordinary person can deal with.
Although Gao Ji Li seriously suspected that Xue Tong was passing by the martial artist, Xue Tong's martial rank was not to be feared, and it was good to have one more person to make up the number.
The short Liu Jinjian somewhat guessed Ji Li's intentions, the two of them have been friends for two hundred years, and the other party's mind is roughly understood.
The three of them chatted while walking, and Xue Tong revealed some harmless information. He called himself a warrior of Xinyuan, and he heard that there were monk activities in the Yuanyuan, so he came to try his luck.
"Oh, when the Taoist friends see the others, they will say that they are the people we have made an appointment with, and try to talk as little as possible, so as not to be disliked." Ji Li said.
"Uh-huh" Xue Tong nodded again and again and said a few words of thanks. The three of them clinged to the surface of the stream, and the light shot fast.
……
"It's here!" Ji Oak's body slowed down, and there was already a swamp in front of him. He shot several beads of fire from his palm, burrowing into the muddy wetland beneath him.
The wetlands suddenly dried out at a rate visible to the naked eye, steaming hot, and soon forming hard lumps.
"Waiting for someone here" Ji Li glanced at Xue Tong, who was slightly panting, sat down to practice, and said no more. Xue Tong didn't deliberately pretend to be stupid and weak, he inadvertently revealed the best, took a few breaths, and his face turned a little red, and the ghost knew if it was true.
At night, the stars and moon were dark, and the swamp was eerie and cold, with only the occasional soft sound of blisters bursting. Until noon the next day, the gloomy atmosphere faded, and five people came.
The first man and a woman seem to be fellow monks, the man is ugly, with crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and the woman is quite beautiful, dressed in purple clothes with a little powder.
Both of them are in the early stage of the Grandmaster's cultivation. Mu Shanzong, Zhao Ruoting, Jiang Suzhu, and Xue Tong greeted Ji Li.
He was followed by Meng Haocheng, the owner of Tianlong Village, and Dong Qianshan, who accompanied Yan Luofang. The last to come was the uncertain Fan Gao.
Fan Gao is the leader of the family, with the highest martial rank, and the middle stage of the grandmaster.
"Oh, this Taoist friend is" Fan Gao saw that Xue Tong and Ji Liu were side by side, so he asked Ji Li.
"The Taoist friends I met decades ago were very interested in talking about Heyuan, so they came together." Ji Li said.
"Welcome, welcome, this trip is not easy, it is better to have more people." Fan Gao smiled.
"Is Xue Daoyou familiar with He Yuan" Jiang Suzhu rolled her eyes and asked. But where a high-level female cultivator is good at observing her face, Jiang Suzhu observed, except for his senior brother Zhao Ruoting, only Xue Tong on the field could be used a little, so he set up a close.
"I'm not familiar with it, it's new to you, and I still need to rely on you." Xue Tong couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't want to go empty, he never thought that the situation of the abyss was different, maybe it was the will of heaven.
Fortunately, there are four groups of people in the team, each with their own thoughts, and they hinder each other, and the martial rank also makes him not worry too much.
"Where is it, if you really want to say that it depends on, it also depends on Daoist Fan." Jiang Suzhu opened her teeth lightly and said with a smile.
"Everyone work together, how can you rely on it, Fan has been in the Yuan for ten years, and he found out the abnormality, so he contacted you and tried together." Fan Gao began to recount the details.
"As you can see, the abyss is extremely full of demonic energy, such as this ordinary small swamp, the blisters are full of eerie and violent atmosphere, the old man accidentally discovered that the farther Daze, the full moon night will give birth to a dark hole, spewing demonic energy."
"I try it with a demon beast, the entrance is not dangerous, the old man has been groping for many years, judging that Daze is not the center of the abyss, with our strength, we should be able to try it." Meng Haocheng interjected and asked: "Demon beast test, may I ask Fan Daoyou how to try the method?"
"Invested in the innate peak living beast, after a month, the demon beast spit out, and it is still alive, but it is just frightened and paralyzed."
"Therefore, you can enter boldly, and it is too late to regret it." Fan Gao said. Xue Tongxin said: "The old ghost has been in, and his strength is not good or he feels dangerous, so he is willing to join forces with others." "Ji Li and the others have all practiced for three or four hundred years, and their ideas are similar to those of Xue Tong, but they have not broken them.
"How will the spiritual objects be distributed after entering," Dong Qianshan asked.
"Whoever picks and kills belongs to whom, and the joint knockdown is distributed according to the merit, and if there is a treasure chest, the old man will take one first."
"Your order, the old man suggested that it be decided by lottery first." Fan Gao said.
"Xue is the last in line, and I dare not compare with you." Xue Tong took the initiative to propose.
"Hehe, I really see a good baby or a big opportunity, who cares about this predetermined order!" Xue Tong said secretly.
