027 Mountain Ghost
When Lin An gradually woke up from his coma, he found himself lying on a warm blanket, covered with another one, and under the blanket there was a layer of branches that had been picked up to keep out the tide.
Unlike the blankets he had seen from the north, this one was very soft, especially the fluff on the top. It even gave him a feeling of being trapped.
At the same time, the flower in the center of the blanket amazed him, because he had never seen a pattern so brightly colored and so lifelike.
"Looks like I've been rescued." Looking at the stars in the sky, Lin An let out a sigh of relief, after all, the monster who wanted to eat people would not let him out of the cave and cover him with such a good blanket.
After turning his neck with some difficulty, Lin An found that a fire had been lit up beside him.
Although the fire is very small, it does not even provide much warmth. But as a mountain ghost, he can easily use this light to see his surroundings clearly.
He found himself lying in a sheltered place on a small dirt slope, and all the clothes on his body were piled up not far from him, with a small dagger pressed on top.
Seeing this, he immediately reached out and touched himself, only to find that his original clothes were only a pair of underwear, and his body was wrapped with a special strip of white cloth, and some oil that was probably medicine was applied to his wounds.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a rustling sound from the bushes not far away, so he subconsciously reached for the dagger that was placed not far from him, and his hand fell to the ground.
This is not to blame him, after all, after being tied up there and hungry for five or six days, at most only drinking a few sips of water, it is enough to say that the mountain ghost race is different in talent compared to humans.
Fortunately, at this time, he also found that what came out of the bushes was not an enemy or a monster, but a tall young man with a sword at his waist, and a large teapot made of fine iron in his hand, and the aroma of grain came from it.
He instantly felt his stomach begin to cramp, the feeling he felt after a long period of hunger.
"Let's eat some first." After watching the mountain ghost he rescued wake up, Liang En's face showed a smile from the bottom of his heart.
After saving people, he realized that saving people was just the beginning, how to make the other party sober up, how to move the other party, and even how to send the other party to the right place and a series of problems were all anxious.
Fortunately, it seems that the mountain ghost race is much more solid than humans, and they can wake up just by pouring some glucose water, and their spirits are obviously much better than before.
It seems that if he eats something, the other party should be able to regain some mobility, so that he can leave this place with the young mountain ghost in front of him.
"What's your name? How did you get here? Looking at the mountain ghost snoring and eating the rice porridge in the stainless steel rice jar, Liang En asked in a gentle tone.
"Lin An, my name is Lin An." After swallowing the porridge in his mouth, the very young-looking mountain ghost raised his head and said with a serious face, and then talked about what had happened to him as he ate.
As Liang En had guessed before, this mountain ghost named Lin An was not an ordinary mountain ghost, but the young patriarch of a mountain ghost clan who lived on the island of Taihu Lake.
Unlike the administrative divisions of humans, the mountain ghosts use clans as the lowest unit, and each clan has a Fuso wood as the core of their entire clan.
This hibiscus is not only spiritual to them, but also the core of the survival of this race: without it, their fertility would be reduced to 1/10 of what it is now.
For this reason, the mountain ghosts who can communicate with Fuso are considered the rulers of the clan by the mountain ghosts, with the older ones ruling the entire clan as the clan chief, and the younger ones as the younger clan chiefs and heirs.
That's right, there can be more than one patriarch of a clan of mountain ghosts, and naturally there can be more than one young patriarch, and at the same time, they don't have any blood relationship most of the time, as long as they can communicate with Fusang Mu.
But even if it is such a large-scale audition, there will almost never be multiple patriarchs and young patriarchs in ordinary mountain ghost clans at the same time, but this kind of main will be passed down one by one.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, a young patriarch like Lin An should be under heavy protection, and if he wants to catch him, he will inevitably clash with the entire Mountain Ghost Clan.
Although mountain ghosts have always been regarded as a gentle race, they are naturally close to nature and have a lot of special powers, and they are definitely not weak when it comes to fighting.
Judging from the previous battles, although the level of that monster with the breath of death is not low, it is really not high, and it is absolutely impossible to snatch people from the hands of an entire clan.
But there are always exceptions, for example, the unlucky guy in front of him, Lin An, was too young when he became the young patriarch, so he needed to join the trial as an heir.
This is not a secret news for many well-intentioned guys, and the mountain ghosts who have experienced the baptism of Fuso wood have unique characteristics and are easy to identify.
So when Lin An independently launched the coming-of-age hunt according to tradition, the monster ambushed and kidnapped him.
For that monster, catching the mountain ghost is naturally to eat and improve its own strength, and this way devouring it alive naturally cannot maximize the effect.
So after catching the mountain ghost here, the monster planned to find some ingredients to maximize the effect of the mountain ghost and ensure that it could maximize its strength this time.
As a result, what I didn't expect was to meet Liang En, who had more blood than ordinary people, standing there alone on the road, so the monster was greedy and tried to get more, and was hacked to death by Liang En's sword.
"-I heard that guy say that he was going out to find some ingredients to train me into a pair of drugs, but I didn't expect to get you involved, but fortunately, not only did you not get hurt, but you managed to save me."
Seven or eight minutes later, Lin An, who had finished drinking a jar of porridge, also finished talking about what happened to him.
"Uh-huh, I see." After listening to Lin An's thoughts, Liang En finally figured out why the monster just now couldn't get along with him again and again, but at this time he still had one last question that he hadn't figured out.
"But your identity is so important, why didn't your clan come to your rescue?"
"Because this kind of trial is carried out in a closed environment by many clans, no one will find out that one or two people are missing until the trial is over."
Speaking of this, Lin An let out a long sigh.
"Under normal circumstances, the surrounding guardians would not allow any abnormal beings to enter the trial grounds, but I didn't expect that the ghoul would have been lying there in disguise as a corpse a long time ago, and then suddenly attacked me."
"So I always thought that that guy should have some kind of special technique or some kind of treasure in him, otherwise it would be impossible to escape the eyes of those guards."
