Chapter 38: Departure
"Yes, yes."
Wu Wei was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Among those wolf demons, there happened to be one who was a cultivator pretending to be a cultivator. If I hadn't worked with him, I probably wouldn't have survived. ”
Lu Yuansheng's strange laughter came from the coffin.
Wu Wei stood there quietly without saying a word.
"You doll, you have a bit of ability." Lu Yuansheng smiled and said, "I have something to invite, do you want to think about it?" ”
Wu Wei was surprised: "The owner of the village, please speak." ”
"In less than ten years, Dazhai will hold the Mid-Autumn Festival in the first phase of Jiazi."
"At that time, I will step down as the owner of the village and Gao Chang will take the position."
Lu Yuansheng's tone was indifferent, and he couldn't hear any mood fluctuations.
“...... They will also follow the ancestral practice and open the Tower of Babel at the right time. ”
Wu Wei's expression moved slightly.
"Are you interested in going to the Tower of Babel to get the treasure?" Lu Yuansheng said lightly.
"Babel Tower......" Wu Wei lowered his head and thought for a moment, "What is that place?" ”
"Dazhai ancestral land. Thanks to the ancestors of the past dynasties, there are countless treasures left in the Tower of Babel from ancient times to the present, and if you can go in, you may be able to get the blessings of your ancestors. ”
Wu Wei thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "Thank you for the kindness of the owner of the village." Since it's a chance, let's wait for someone to get it! I've never been lucky, so I won't mix it up! ”
secretly said in his heart, if there are really so many treasures left by the ancestors in the Tower of Babel, it is murderous to let people go in and fight for them.
Lu Yuansheng and Gao Chang, two people who were already incompatible, had to hand over the post of village owner at the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was even more fierce.
Unless his brain is broken, he will be fooled by Lu Yuansheng's words.
"You don't have to reply to me so quickly. There's still time, and if you figure it out, you can always come to me. Lu Yuansheng said slowly: "No matter what doubts you have, I can guarantee it." ”
Wu Wei arched his hand.
"As for the spirit baby, since you have a heart, I will release her from the shackles of the baby urn."
Wu Wei was stunned, and before he could react, the surface of the infant urn in front of him suddenly circulated with black light, and then a string of obscure and mysterious runes flew away from the surface of the infant urn and was collected into the coffin by Lu Yuansheng.
"The old man is cutting first and then playing. Although I have half of my body in the ground, after all, I have served the Great God of the Remnant Yin for so many years, and if I want to come to this little affection, the Great God of the Remnant Yin will still give it to me. ”
Wu Wei knew that this was Lu Yuansheng's enveloping words, and the mention of the remnant yin god was nothing more than an attempt to aggravate this sentiment.
Despite this, he was still pleasantly surprised in his heart, and said sincerely: "Xiao Nan and I, thank you for your help!" ”
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Think for yourself! With that, the vermilion lacquer coffin turned into a streamer of light and flew towards the sky.
Wu Wei clenched his fists in his hands and watched him leave.
When the coffin disappeared into the clouds, Lu Yuansheng's voice floated in his ears: "Little doll, the mother of this spirit baby, that group of people has died a long time ago, and they are buried in the mass grave seven miles east of the Nursery Hall." If you want to go, go and go back quickly, don't be caught by Gaochang. ”
Wu Wei opened his mouth and sighed in his heart.
Lu Yuansheng handled this matter too authentically, and he didn't know when he would be able to repay this favor.
......
Seven days later.
Seven miles to the east of the Nursery Hall, in a dense forest that is inaccessible and gloomy.
Wu Wei stepped on the ground covered with layers of white ash and several feet thick, his face gloomy.
Unburned gray-white joints can be found everywhere.
He picked up a handful of ashes from the ground.
"Xiao Nan, you can't recognize it, do you?"
Xiao Nan looked at him quietly.
In the gray eyes without pupils, there is not the slightest emotion and reaction.
Wu Wei let the ashes leak from his palm, and said in a low voice: "Let those who sleep forever let them sleep here." ”
......
A month later, July 15.
River valley side.
The river flows quietly, day and night.
Wu Wei faced the river, and the river breeze made him suddenly feel a sense of separation.
"Xiaonan, is that where you came from?"
He pointed to the upper reaches of the river.
Xiao Nan floated in the air.
"What's that? Do you remember? Wu Wei looked at her and said to himself.
Looking up at the sky, it was getting dark immediately.
"Xiao Nan, if you can't remember, just follow me. Your spirit is still unstable, the sun is too scorching, and when the weather is cooler in October, I'll take you to find the way you came, okay? ...... Xiaonan? ”
Wu Wei chattered, and suddenly found that Xiao Nan didn't follow, and turned back suddenly.
Xiao Nan stopped by the river and stood opposite Wu Wei.
The river fog rose, and she turned and flew off into the distance, disappearing into the sky.
......
Night.
Wu Wei built a bonfire.
Qingwu fell asleep at his feet.
After devouring a first-order beast demon alive, he took out the last transmission note from his bosom and set it on fire.
It's just that after the transmission note burned for a while, there was no movement at all.
Wu Wei raised his eyebrows and let out a soft sigh, feeling that something seemed to be wrong.
It's a pity that he doesn't know anything about the way of the talisman, so he can only watch as the talisman burns out and completely turns into a pile of ashes.
After being silent for a long time, he shook his head: "That's it...... The mountains are high and the waters are long, see you in the future! ”
Following.
Wu Wei glanced in the direction of Dazhai and hurried in the opposite direction without looking back.
......
The farther away from Dazhai, the miasma seems to become thicker and thicker.
A few days later, I came to a precipitous pass.
"There's a demonic aura."
Wu Wei raised his head and looked at the narrow passage between the two dangerous peaks, and subconsciously felt that it was not a good place to go.
If you want to go around from both sides, you need to cross two peaks, which can take a lot of time.
He didn't have a clear timetable, but he remembered in his heart what the old man who pretended to be a wolf demon said that the Central Plains was in the east of the demon beast world, and as soon as he was in his heart, he found the east and marched aimlessly.
After thinking about it, he summoned Qingwu.
"Go ahead and find your way."
The head of the green black snake was lightly tapped, and the car turned into a blue and black mist familiarly, and flew towards the pass against the ground.
For Qingwu's ability to explore the way, Wu Wei has always been extremely relieved.
I don't know if it's a snake that is naturally alert, Qingwu with its magical ability to turn into qi and hide, even in the face of a first-order late-stage demon beast, can retreat without being discovered.
Judging from the demonic qi emanating from the previous pass, the demon beasts in this canyon were at most the cultivation of the late stage of the first order.
Therefore, Wu Wei did not hesitate to let Qingwu explore the way first, and he found a place to sit in place and think about something else.
After Xiao Nan left, his combat effectiveness decreased.
Without the cover of the white mist, the success rate of the Qingwu raid was greatly reduced.
Their blood food target has also gone from being able to easily hunt the first-order late-stage demon beasts at the beginning, to now retreating to the second-order idea of only fighting the first-order mid-order demon beasts at most, in order to be safe.
The level of blood food has decreased, and the progress speed of Wu Wei's refining has also slowed down.
As for the demon beast divine soul, even Qingwu himself was not enough to absorb it, let alone provide it to the wolf soul on his chest that had not appeared once so far.
The rubbing of the wolf soul is still faint, without a trace of thickening.
The efficiency of demon beast blood food and divine soul acquisition has decreased, and it has become more and more a headache.
