Under the willow tree, on a stone pier.

Li Ping'an was mashing the garlic cloves little by little, and there was a bowl of white rice and sauce on the side.

as well as vegetable leaves, a few green onions.

White rice tossed with sauce and green onions is wrapped in vegetable leaves.

While eating, I wondered which direction to go next.

When I finally came to Qizhou, I naturally had to walk around and see more, and it was impossible to be limited to just one country.

"Huhu~"

Lao Niu couldn't eat with Li Ping'an, and he was quite reluctant to eat cabbage.

At the moment, potatoes were roasted, and a piece of meat was bubbling with oil.

The fragrance was overflowing, attracting all the attention of Jiaze, who was reading a book on the side.

The clouds on the horizon are very beautiful, and the breeze blows people's clothes.

After a while, after eating and drinking.

The man in green shirt got up and walked slowly into the distance.

...........

The southernmost part of Qizhou is a wild place.

Demons and humans coexist.

It is said that it coexists, but it is better to say that a part of the human beings who carry the oath of their ancestors are guarding this place.

Thousands of years ago, a small number of demon clans who entered the customs from the north were chased and killed all the way.

He fled to this place and hid in the vast fog forest.

The fog forest is surrounded by a poisonous miasma all year round, when the miasma is strong.

Even monks who are responsible for spiritual cultivation sometimes find it difficult to resist and dare not go deeper.

Most of the demons died in the fog forest, and a few survived.

And the offspring reproduced, and gradually adapted to this fog forest.

In order to protect the peace, the human race that chased and killed here also settled here to prevent the resurgence of the demon clan in the fog forest.

In a flash, it is a thousand years of time.

The strength of the demon clan is because of the power of the bloodline of the demon clan, and the power of this bloodline is innate and talented.

No matter the cultivation speed or physical fitness of any demon clan, as long as it is the power of the demon clan's bloodline, it can be exerted to the extreme.

Compared to the demon race, the human race is weak.

Humans do not have a hard shell, no sharp claws, and are far less able to distinguish between light and sound than other animals.

So in a world where everything is animistic, human beings are in a position of oppression.

Terran monks, no matter how strong they are.

No matter how long they live, it can't change that, and humanity is always at a disadvantage.

But the Terrans have the characteristics of a human race, and they will never give up, and they will never easily succumb to fate.

The horse walks on the ancient road, the road is dangerous and long, and the road is boundless.

Between the mountains and rivers, an endless stream of horse teams walked slowly, carrying loads of goods.

The road is lined with vegetation and the mountain road is dangerous and steep.

Suspended plank road, sheep intestine wool road, covered bridge flying frame.....

The bells of the vendors' caravan could be heard clearly in the wind.

As the people and horses moved, the light flickered and the darkness flickered.

There was a suffocating haze in the air, like blood.

It was muddy again, and it was like a shivering chill......

On a black horse at the front sat an old man in his sixties, with a gray beard hanging down from his chest, dark skin, and a smoking gun in his mouth.

"Huhuhu~"

"There's someone up ahead!"

A gleam flashed in the old man's eyes.

The speed of the entire horse team slowed down, and the few people who walked in the front subconsciously grabbed the weapons at their waists.

This person is very strange, obviously in the fog forest where people don't spit out bones.

But he was dressed in a green shirt, no dust, and looked clean.

A man and a cow, and a terrifying creature resembling a tiger crouching at his feet.

But I've seen too many strange things in the fog forest, and there's nothing strange about it.

When the horse team was not far away, Li Ping'an stood up.

This action made the people of the horse team nervous again.

But he didn't want Li Ping'an to just salute, "I've seen you." ”

The old man was the first to react and returned the salute.

"After traveling so far, I never wanted to get lost, I don't know if I can take it with me on the next trip, if it is inconvenient to show the way."

The old man glanced Li Ping'an up and down, and it didn't look like a lost person at all.

But he still said truthfully: "The road in this foggy forest can not be explained clearly in a few words." ”

"Then I don't know if it's convenient to take Li for a ride?"

The old man's Adam's apple moved, "Dare to ask... Sir, but a demon in the mountains? ”

"Not really."

"If it weren't for the demons in the mountains, how could one person dare to come here."

"Li is a decent family."

"How?"

Li Ping'an hesitated for a moment and took out something from the storage ring.

"This is the token of Shushan."

"Shushan?"

"Far away from Qizhou."

"This tiger?" The old man glanced at Jiaze again.

"It's not a tiger, it looks fierce, but it's actually very well-behaved."

Li Ping'an beckoned, and Jiaze immediately ran over obediently and made a very cute expression.

The men in the team looked at each other, and finally looked at the old man in the lead.

The old man's eyes narrowed, and he nodded in agreement.

"Yes."

"Thank you."

The horse walked slowly, through the mountains and forests,

Every time a horse's hooves fall, the horse's body trembles slightly.

The man on horseback tossed and fell with the rise and fall of the horse's hooves.

Li Ping'an followed at the front of the team, second only to the old man in the lead.

The people behind him were still staring at Li Ping'an vigilantly.

"Sir, you're here to slay demons?" The old man asked

Li Ping'an sat on the back of the cow and looked ahead calmly, "There is a demon here?" ”

"Naturally, there is."

The old man made it easy for Li Ping'an to talk about the reasons and current situation of the coexistence of the demon clan and humans in this fog forest.

"Nobody cares?"

The old man explained: "Those demons are hidden in the depths of the fog forest, and almost no one dares to enter, and even if they do, they are hard to find. ”

"I see."

"It's not to slay demons, why did you come here?"

"It's just a walk around, and it doesn't have any special purpose."

The old man nodded, "This season is just in time for the bonfire festival of the village. ”

At the beginning, the old man and the people in the horse team were still wary of Li Ping'an.

But as time passed, I gradually relaxed.

Because they found that this gentleman has an easy-going personality, not only speaks well, but is also a talent.

You tell him a legend about the Fog Forest, and he can tell you ten different interesting stories about different places.

"How many places has you been, sir?"

Li Ping'an nodded.

"I have been on this road for so many years, and I have also met a few cultivators."

The old man smoked a dry cigarette and recalled,

"But most of them are in a hurry, looking for a panacea, or retreating somewhere, as if they are in a race against time."

Li Ping'an smiled, "Who can run through time." ”

"Sir looks extraordinary."

"I'm different from them." Li Ping'an said lightly.
