Chapter 26: A Heavy Pass

[Messing into the fate line: Daoyou, I'll help you become an immortal]

[After your stirring, the snake spirit who originally wanted to find the immortal seed from you changed his mind. She felt that it was her right to get you through the sevenfold test of the immortal seed and plunder the fruits of your labor when you were about to ascend. Therefore, this scorpion essence, whose original purpose was to follow the vine and catch them all, has now become a loyal subordinate of Ling]

[Before the sevenfold test is completed, the scorpion spirit will treat you more dearly than your own father.] How you use it, how you act, it's up to you]

His fingers flicked across the eight directions of destiny, and Zhou Li continued to follow everyone on the trail. Since their tall carriage was melted by the demon monk as soon as it left the town of Fangmu for more than ten miles, Zhou Li and the others could only rely on their legs to advance towards Beiliang City.

At this time, some people will be curious, this is just a dozen miles away from Fir Wood Town, so why not turn back to Palm Wood Town and wait for the next tall carriage?

In fact, Zhou Li and Qianhu thought about this issue at the beginning, but soon the two vetoed the idea.

Daming's tall carriage is not like the high-speed rail in the real world all over the country, in fact, the coverage rate of the high horse station is actually not much, this radius of 100 miles in addition to the capital, there is only a small town in Fangmu Town can have a high horse station.

As a result, the number of tall carriages passing through this small place of Fir Wood is extremely rare, and they only travel once a week. And the one they burned was the only one this week. If you want to wait for the next one, it will be a week later.

Therefore, Zhou Li calculated that they were still less than three hundred miles away from Beiliang, and if they relied on their foot strength, they would only be able to reach Beiliang in three days. After weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Li and the others chose to go directly to Beiliang, anyway, everyone is either a Lingqi master or a Jinyi guard, who can be difficult to get on this way?

On the same day, several people were on the road again after a short break. The northland is mostly inhospitable, the Gobi Desert is the most, and most of it is uninhabited, so it is extremely difficult to buy a few horses or supplement food. But fortunately, Zhou Li's mind is active, and he has a rich ability to survive in the wild, so that everyone will not fall into a pitiful situation where they can't eat.

But soon, because of the heroic righteousness of Zhou Li's previous outfit, another problem also followed.

Lost.

After crossing a piece of the Gobi Desert, Zhou Li looked at the four or five dirt roads in front of him, and after confirming that everyone did not bring a map, and that his own map was also going to heaven with his clothes, he fell into deep thought.

What to do?

"I guess it's this way."

At this time, Qianhu on the side crossed his arms and said, "I have been to Beiliang once, and I remember that it should be the road on the far right." ”

"Then listen to Senho-sama."

Zhou Li didn't doubt it, after all, the current Qianhu can be said to be the most malicious monster in the world to him, not to mention setting a trap to ambush himself, it is estimated that if Qianhu points the wrong way, he will have to cut off his meridians and apologize to Zhou Li for a while.

Guo Lingyun and Tang Guan did not express any opinions on Qianhu's guidance, one of them had a ghost in his heart and did not say a word, and the other had round eyes except for chatting with Zhou Li, acting like a mentally retarded person, so everyone quickly began to move forward along the path pointed by Qianhu.

After walking for about an hour, everyone entered a tree-lined path, and after walking for another half an hour, Zhou Li and they found that they still hadn't gone out. Just when Zhou Li once wondered if Qianhu, the old Deng, was an old fool who remembered the wrong road, the road ahead suddenly opened up, and a small and compact village appeared in front of everyone.

"Huh?"

When Qianhu saw that village, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and his expression was stunned. Zhou Li, who was on the side, sensed that something was wrong and asked, "What did the adults find?" ”

"This..."

Frowning, Qianhu said with some hesitation: "This place, I remember that there are no people." ”

"Really?"

Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at the village carefully, and found that this village was full of chickens and dogs barking, and the cooking smoke was blowing into the clouds.

"Are you mistaken?"

"Maybe I'm mistaken?"

Qianhu hesitated a little, after all, he was very familiar with this place, and he had eaten all the people who could eat it, and he knew exactly where there were people and where there were no people. But under Zhou Li's inquiry, he also began to wonder if he had eaten too much and was confused.

Everyone was not suspicious, after all, it was a good thing to have a village, who wanted to eat charcoal-grilled scorpions if they could eat cooked pork meat. So they set out quickly and headed for the village.

The village is surrounded by water on three sides, surrounded by a long river about a dozen zhang wide, with only two stone bridges and a driftwood bridge for people to pass. And on the side where there is no river, a towering mountain peaks stand quietly.

Surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on one side, this is a trap in feng shui, but for some reason there is a village. Zhou Li and the others didn't think much about it, crossed the stone bridge, and entered the village.

There is a street in this village, there are commercial cabinets, there are also shops for eating, and there is a small inn located at the entrance of the village, which makes Zhou Li a little surprised that such a remote place can have such complete facilities. But when they stepped into the village, Zhou Li suddenly noticed a strange point.

"In this village... How come there is no one? ”

Yes, this village is far from traffic, the houses are like it, the pots and pans for cooking, the stacked fish baskets and all kinds of things are full of life, but there are no people who live. Zhou Li looked at the commercial cabinet on the side, the pipe fire on the cabinet had not yet been extinguished, there was still residual temperature, but there was no one behind the counter.

This strange and calm scenery made everyone's hearts sink, and Guo Lingyun's hand was even on the long knife on his waist. Zhou Li's right hand hung slightly, and he leaned on his left side, slowly approaching the business cabinet.

"It's dangerous, I'd better do it."

Without waiting for Zhou Li to get close to the business cabinet, the scorpion on the side stood in front of Zhou Li without hesitation, carrying a knife, and resolutely walked towards the business cabinet. The loyalty and licking written on his face even stunned Zhou Li, not to mention the rich expression on Tang Guan's face on the side.

"We're a thousand households, that's it..."

Gritting his teeth, Guo Lingyun rubbed his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Sacrifice yourself for others." ”

Ignoring the three people behind him, Qianhu mentioned the demonic energy in his body at this time, but his hands were stained with elite dragon and tiger energy. He took a short step to approach the commercial cabinet, and then slowly lifted the curtain behind the commercial cabinet with the handle of his knife to probe for a moment.

"Nobody."

Turning around, Qianhu shook his head at Zhou Li and the others, and said with a solemn face: "But there is a pot of steaming rice, and it looks like people have just left." ”

As soon as Qianhu's words fell, Zhou Li suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, but before he could exhale in pain, a stream of heat crossed his waist and quickly fell into his mouth. At the same time, a deafening voice came into Zhou Li's ears from the distant horizon.

One level: thousands of gravity, not as good as gold and silver
