0142: The night is scared

Li Changyuan stared at the torches in the distance for a long time, and finally,

It's confirmed, those are not the flames of demon beasts, nor are they demon fires.

If you want to say where the demonic energy comes from, there is only one reason that makes sense-

The fuel used for those torches is actually the 'oil' in the body of the demon beast.

Well, it's the grease from the bodies of the monsters that were hunted.

Li Changyuan is not surprised, after all, there are also examples of using animal fats and fats such as butter and lard as fuel on the Mosheng Continent.

But why did this beacon fire rise tonight, and what happened?

Li Changyuan didn't know anything about it.

It's impossible to just hide in the house, as the saying goes, the stronger the storm, the more fish. What happened in front of him, Li Changyuan felt that he needed to ask, maybe he could get any benefits from it.

Thinking of this, Li Changyuan jumped up, jumped out of the house, and then set off towards the center of the town.

Most of the houses on the edge of this suburb are uninhabited, so it is troublesome to find someone to inquire about the situation, and Li Changyuan's divine sense covers a little around here, less than fifty meters away.

When he first arrived, his divine sense should not be let go far, so as not to provoke any hard thorns, Li Changyuan had suffered a lot of losses before.

When you go to the middle of the town, the houses here are noticeably much better decorated and brightly lit.

The people in these small towns...... Strangely enough, after the knights walked through and lit a beacon fire and left, the inhabitants hid in their houses and did not come out.

Saying......

There's no danger here.

"Hey, boy, what are you running out for, why don't you hide from your house."

Behind him, a person poked his head out of the window and whispered to Li Changyuan, who was standing on the empty street.

Li Changyuan turned around, ran over and asked in a low voice:

"What's going on here?"

"How do I know what's going on, it's not a good thing anyway, you, don't make trouble for yourself, go and hide, and you'll know tonight."

After speaking, the man retracted his head, closed the window with a puff, and stopped chattering with Li Changyuan.

Li Changyuan was very depressed, these people here, the shelf is quite big, right, the person who opened the window just now is also a demon cultivator, and he has also cultivated to only Yuan Ying, who do you look down on in front of me Li Changyuan?

…… Hmm, it seems that in his opinion, my 'Jindan' is really not enough to see.

Li Changyuan looked around, all the lights were on at home, but no one came out, Li Changyuan walked on the street, and even flew directly into the air in the end, no one took care of himself.

These people are weird. ’

After a period of commotion, Li Changyuan ignored everything else and went back to meditate on the roof of his room.

In the blink of an eye, the next morning, when I opened my eyes, I saw that the tops of those torches in the distance had been extinguished, and some of the torches that had been extinguished not long ago, and there were wisps of white smoke on the tops.

In the air of this town, there is a strong demonic aura floating in the air......

It's like a scorched demonic aura, well, it makes Li Changyuan smell a little uncomfortable.

'Well, no, I can't stand it, if I smell this smell for a long time, I will vomit sooner or later. ’

Li Changyuan stretched after getting up, and then immediately jumped down and ran back to the old place last night, next to the house on that street, Li Changyuan unceremoniously raised his hand and knocked on the door-

Knock knock.

After knocking for a long time, the wooden door slowly opened a crack, and an eye came out of it, and he asked:

"?"

"It's me."

Li Changyuan greeted with a smile, and the people inside trembled for a while, and responded:

"Ah, it's you again!"

After speaking, he snapped the door shut.

Li Changyuan frowned instantly, depressed:

Is there something wrong with this man?' ’

After being stunned in front of the door for a while, Li Changyuan thought that it was better to forget it, it was not good to come hard, so if it didn't work here, he would go and ask elsewhere, and after thinking about it, he turned around and left.

Go elsewhere, go around and go around twice, hey, don't say it, the people in this town are quite honest, what the cavalry team from the Bone Palace said, they are not allowed to come out, they really can't come out.

Didn't they tell you when they would come out, and you never came out?

Yes?

A bunch of weirdness.

'Well, forget it, I can't stand it, I can't stand it......

Li Changyuan simply stopped looking for it, and sat down on the low threshold in front of the door of a house next to him.

Not long after he sat down, the door suddenly opened.

With a gentle creak, the crack in the door was only half opened, and the people inside suddenly screamed, and Li Changyuan immediately turned to get up after hearing the movement of the wooden door behind him.

When the wooden door had just opened a crack and was immediately ready to close with the scream, Li Changyuan's hand was quick and he immediately stuffed his palm half into the crack in the door.

The people in the room were frightened and panicked, and watched as half of their palms came in and pressed the door hard.

Li Changyuan shouted:

"Ahh Pain!! ”

screamed loudly, which frightened the people in the room to relax, Li Changyuan took the opportunity to break open the door and rushed in.

The people in the room shouted in fright:

"Huh! What are you doing! ”

After Li Changyuan came in, he turned around and saw that the person blocking the door was a thin young man, with a lean physique, and his two eye sockets were sunken and black, and it seemed that he had stayed up late.

Li Changyuan raised his hand and pointed it in front of his mouth:

"Shhhh

Signal quiet.

The thin lad pulled his neck back, rested the back of his head against the closed door, and asked in a weak voice:

"Y-Why are you coming in?"

Li Changyuan looked around the room, and the environment here was similar to his 'new home', there was no partition wall, and it was a large single room.

However, the things and furniture are quite complete, and there are many fruits and jerky on the table, and all kinds of snacks.

Li Changyuan looked out the window, and his divine sense expanded and found that the surroundings did not attract the attention of others, so his eyes returned to the thin man and responded:

"It's nothing, I'm just here to ask something."

"What, what?"

Seeing that this thin man was out of breath, the forced entry operation just now seemed to scare him a lot.

As compensation, Li Changyuan took out a spirit stone from the storage ring and threw it to the thin man.

The thin man saw a spirit stone flying over, and hurriedly reached out to catch it with both hands.

After seeing the thin man catch it, Li Changyuan asked:

"What's going on here, why aren't all the people in this town hiding in their homes?"

"Ah......, this, don't you know, you're not from this continent?"

Seeing that the thin man was on guard, but his hands were clenching the spirit stone he had thrown to him, Li Changyuan pretended to be unhappy and replied:

"How can you doubt me casually, I must be from the Beacon Continent Okay, I just went out for several years and didn't come back, and I only came back yesterday."

"Oh,...... I see. ”

Li Changyuan took out two spirit stones from the storage ring, stepped forward, and handed over the spirit stones in his hand to the thin man.

After getting closer, Li Changyuan suddenly smelled that this thin man was ......

…… Hmm, that breath, this thin man vented a little too much last night.

The thin man saw that he had two more spirit stones in his hand, and a stranger came in, so he gave three spirit stones without saying a word.

What is this, this is a great benefactor.

"Y-What do you want to ask?"

The thin man said actively.

Li Changyuan repeated the question just now, the thin man lowered his head and thought for a while, and replied with a serious expression:

"This kind of thing, in fact, we can't say for sure, because unless the Bone Palace personally sends someone to announce it, otherwise, we can only judge the seriousness of the matter from how many beacons the Bone Palace patrol team has lit."

'Beacon? Are they those tall wooden stakes, those stakes that lit the demon fire last night? ’

Li Changyuan asked:

"You saw the beacon outside last night, didn't you?"

"Yes, I've counted, there will be twenty-four beacons in every town, last night...... It's all on fire. ”

"Seriously, isn't it?"

The thin man responded:

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how to describe it, before, I remember the incident thirteen years ago, a large number of demon beasts in Yanshan almost destroyed almost half of the land in the Beacon Fire Continent, killing almost one-third of the white people's compatriots, and at that time, the beacon tower in our town only ignited eighteen pillars."

“…… Hmm, I see. ”

After Li Changyuan responded, he pondered for a while.

At this moment, if you continue to stay in this town, I am afraid that you will not get any useful information, and all the clues, all the clues that can be useful, are closed in the Bone Palace.

Bone Palace......

When I was in the Mosheng Continent before, I heard the eldest grandson Qun say that in the more than two months that he didn't come back, the Bone Palace of the Beacon Fire Continent frequently sent envoys to the Dragon Palace City of the Mosheng Continent to dignitaries.

It is not difficult to see that the status of the Bone Palace in the Beacon Fire Continent is equivalent to the Dragon Palace City on the Mo Sheng Continent.

Among them, there may also be high-level bigwigs who are equivalent to Gongyu Shangxuan.

But wanting to find out what happened, Li Changyuan made up his mind-

'I have to go to this bone palace. ’
