Lu Moqing took Liu Shanlin into the territory and stopped in a border village. The village is inhabited by dozens of families, each of which is similar to each other, made of neat and square stones, some three stories high, and some low as hunchbacked old people. The stone paved road spreads out from the center to all sides, and stone houses line the road. Liushanlin feels that this place is more like a town, but only the center of the land is a city, and the others are villages.

Liu Shanlin looked around and sighed: "The land is worthy of being the hometown of rules. ”

Lu Moqing introduced: "The people in the land, whether they are princes and sorcerers or ordinary people, follow the word rules, and the people everywhere are upright. ”

"Aren't the beggars from the earth?" Liu Shanlin asked softly.

Lu Moqing straightened his waist, put his hands behind his back and said: "The land is vast and the population is large, so it is inevitable that such juniors will be born. ”

Liu Shanlin echoed: "Reasonable, reasonable. ”

Lu Moqing smiled and continued to lead the way, while introducing the customs and customs, Liu Shanlin listened to it with relish next to him, and sighed in surprise from time to time. They walked from one end of the village to the other before stopping, Liu Shanlin bought some dried sweet potatoes when passing through the street in the center of the village, chewed along the way, the entrance is slightly sweet and soft, easy to keep and carry is a good food.

Liu Shanlin looked at the one-story stone house in front of him, and couldn't hide his excitement. He and Lu Moqing pushed the door in, and there was a chic courtyard, although it was small but delicate and beautiful. The rockery is surrounded by a variety of flowers and plants, some of which are budding and some of which are already blooming with bright flowers. Liu Shanlin took a deep breath, full of the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Lu Moqing led Liu Shanlin to a room against the wall and pushed the door in, and was greeted by a large stone bed with printed bedding on it. Lu Moqing said: "You can rest here first, I will call me at any time if there is something next door to you." ”

Liu Shanlin nodded again and again, and threw himself on the bed to feel the hardness of the stone bed and the softness of the bedding, and after a while, he made a slight snoring sound.

It wasn't until the moon hung on the treetops and the moonlight covered the earth and willows and forests that he woke up from his sleep. He dreamed of the Liuji family, and he was warm and happy in his dream. But now he sat on the stone bed, and there was no one around him, and he felt lost.

He opened the door and saw Lu Moqing sitting in the courtyard making tea, so he walked over and sat down. Lu Moqing handed Liu Shanlin a cup of tea and asked, "How did you sleep?" ”

Liu Shanlin took a sip of tea and replied, "It's okay." It's just dreaming about some things from the past. ”

Lu Moqing didn't know what Liu Shanlin dreamed of, he just looked at Liu Shanlin's gradually dim expression, then looked up at the moon in the sky and said, "Brother Liu, have you ever thought about the meaning of your existence in this world. ”

Liu Shanlin thought for a while and said: "Someone once told me that when we are born in the world, we are like floating floats, and we explore the meaning of our existence in suffering and warmth. For me now, protecting the people I care about is the purpose of my existence. ”

Lu Moqing was about to say something when a huge stone pillar instantly pierced out of the ground, and then some relatively thin and sharper stone pillars emerged like flowers blooming. Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing immediately wrapped their bodies in mist, but because the stone pillars were silent and fast, their arms and thighs were deeply bloodied, and the blood was losing rapidly.

Lu Moqing and Liu Shanlin were back to back, calling to Mo Ran in their hearts, and then a thick python demon wrapped the two of them tightly, and instantly ran out of the courtyard and fled into the distance.

In the moonlight, a tall man stood on the roof, wearing a mask and a black cloak.

Mo Ran led them all the way to the run, his stout body nimbly navigating around the houses and trees.

Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing used the soul mist in their bodies to repair the wounds in their bodies, but there was the attacker's manic soul mist left in the wounds, and their own soul mist was difficult to move an inch, so they could only slowly extinguish the mist first and then repair the meridian flesh and blood.

They ran until midnight, and when they entered a forest, they found a giant tree and stopped. Mo Ran turned into a human body and gasped for air. Liu Shanlin and Lu Moqing leaned against the trunk of the tree, sat down cross-legged, and used the soul mist around them to fight against the manic mist. Mo Ran breathed for a moment before jumping between the branches of the tree, monitoring the surroundings.

They are located in a forest on the border between the earths, which runs through the territory of the earth, occupies a third of the land between the lands, and extends to the easternmost part of the continent. The mountains here are rugged, the trees are dense, and there are many kinds of monsters living in it, and the number is huge, so most of the people who come here are practitioners who have experienced or hunted monsters.

The forest is not strictly controlled, so the rest of the magicians with the surname can enter it by paying a considerable amount of money and artifacts to obtain a Ground Order.

Mo Ran stood on the branch, not noticing any movement, but he did not slack off in the slightest, and still kept an eye on the wind and grass everywhere.

An hour later, Mo Ran suddenly turned into a python body, lightly bypassing the trees, and wrapping around a large tree with dense branches and leaves a hundred meters away. He shrunk and turned into a human body, listening intently to the conversation between the two not far away.

"Aunt Jing, do you say that you can find a contract demon who shares my heart here?" One of them, a girl dressed in blue and combing her hair in two braids, her soft voice reached Mo Ran's ears through the dense branches and leaves.

"This forest is called the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, and there are many monsters in it, I believe that you will definitely be able to find Miss's contract demon." The old woman beside the girl said, "Although there is the protection of old decay, there are dangers in this ten thousand demon forests, and monsters and sorcerers are mixed, so Miss should not take it lightly." ”

The girl shook her braids and said, "I know, I know Aunt Jing, you have said many, many times along the way, and your ears are calloused." ”

The old woman looked at the girl kindly, then turned her head to look at Mo Ran and said indifferently, "Have you heard enough of the little friend in the tree?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Mo Ran, who was squatting on the tree, was pulled by a rope made of water condensation, and instantly turned back to his original body, no matter how he struggled, he couldn't break free, and even the soul mist in his body was stagnant and couldn't function.

"Why are you eavesdropping on us?" The old woman looked at Mo Ran in front of her, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Mo Ran panicked, he was now like a big snake bound by someone, waiting to be put on the fire to be roasted. He hurriedly admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop." You also know that the Ten Thousand Demon Forest is in danger and has to be guarded against, so the little one came to investigate. ”

The old woman stared straight into Mo Ran's eyes, and seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, she asked the girl next to her, "What does Miss want to do with this big snake." ”

The girl looked at Mo Ran's panicked expression, pretended to be vicious, and said, "Roast, Aunt Jing." ”

Mo Ran immediately shouted: "Let me go, beg Miss not to roast me, my meat is not delicious." ”

The old woman and the girl both burst out laughing, and then the water rope that bound Mo Ran's body melted and fell to the ground. Mo Ran clasped his fists and said, "Miss Xie, Lord Xie, don't kill." ”
