Volume 2 The Years of Foundation Building Chapter 166 Misty Forest
The Misty Forest, as its name suggests, has a lot of fog all year round, and it is also a gathering place for many demons and monsters, but it is also a necessary place for Xinping City to arrive in the Western Tang Dynasty.
However, only the average large caravan can afford it, and the average small caravan can only trek through mountains and rivers to make a long detour.
According to the address provided on the announcement, Liang Zicheng came to the largest hotel in the city.
The tasks on the bulletin board are clearly introduced, what routes to take, what to do, and so on...... There is only no reward, but Liang Zicheng doesn't care about the caravan's reward, this time he is just going to experience, and he just has to pass through the misty forest.
"This immortal master is please." The shopkeeper of the restaurant saw Liang Zicheng come in and hurriedly said respectfully,
"Xiao Er, is it you who are recruiting immortals here to escort the caravan?" Liang Zicheng asked.
When Xiao Er heard this, he immediately said respectfully: "It turns out that the immortal master is here to apply, please upstairs."
Liang Zicheng followed Xiao Er to the upper floor, and immediately saw that there were already more than a dozen low-level Qi cultivation disciples sitting here. When those low-level Qi cultivation disciples saw Liang Zicheng coming in, they immediately stood up one after another.
In the world of cultivating immortals, low-level disciples can only look up to high-level disciples, and the law of the jungle is not only in the animal world, but also in the world of cultivating immortals.
Then the steward who applied for the recruitment saw that the upstairs was quiet all of a sudden, and immediately raised his head, and when he saw Liang Zicheng standing on the edge of the corridor, he immediately asked respectfully: "This, senior, are you here..."?
"I heard that you are going to recruit guards to pass through the Misty Forest, so I have come to apply." Liang Zicheng said casually.
"What"? Such a steward obviously didn't expect that a small escort mission would actually have seniors in the late stage of Qi training come to apply, but wouldn't it be safer for the seniors in the late stage of Qi training to come?
"Okay, I'll give you ten, no, I'll give you fifteen spirit stones." The steward said excitedly.
Seeing that Liang Zicheng had no objection, the steward immediately said: "Senior, I will leave tomorrow afternoon, or I will open a room for you to rest."
"It's okay too". Liang Zicheng did not refuse the kindness of the manager.
On the second day, Liang Zicheng peeked at the goods transported, only to find that the 1 truck was loaded with large space bags sealed with spells. The space bag is already large, and it is filled with so many bags, which shows that there are many goods transported this time.
Seeing that it was almost cleaned up and the people were all together, Boss Wang of the caravan sent someone to fetch a few high incense sticks, lit a solemn goodbye in the distance, and then announced the official departure.
After the caravan set off, the steward immediately took Boss Wang to Liang Zicheng: "In Xia Wang Jinping, I have seen the immortal master."
"Boss Wang, don't be polite."
"This escort mission, please ask the immortal master to bother a lot."
"Boss Wang can rest assured."
"Immortal Master, I have a carriage in front of me, so let's give it to Immortal Master to travel." After Boss Wang finished speaking, a person brought a gorgeous carriage.
Liang Zicheng nodded, and got into this gorgeous carriage with Boss Wang.
The convoy left the city and walked unhurriedly for the afternoon, reaching the edge of the misty forest in the evening. There was a layer of fog all around the Misty Forest, which looked really gray and deep, and even the sky above the forest seemed to be surrounded by a layer of black fog like a dark cloud.
The helpers of the convoy were just ordinary mortals, who might have come for the first time, and some of their legs trembled at the terrifying posture.
"Immortal Chief, how about we rest here for the night, and enter the Misty Forest tomorrow?" At this time, Boss Wang asked Liang Zicheng carefully.
"It's really inconvenient to enter the misty forest at night, so let's set off early tomorrow morning."
Hearing Liang Zicheng nod, Boss Wang immediately announced the order to set up camp and hurry again during the day the next day. The helpers were relieved, hurriedly packed their bags, and lit a bonfire.
Boss Wang leaned on the side of his truck, looking at the bright moon hanging high. Obviously it wasn't cold weather, but he still rubbed his hands involuntarily.
However, this time, he was able to invite a master in the late stage of Qi cultivation to come and escort him, which was really an ancestral virtue. In the past, a group of low-level Qi cultivators were only recruited, and there was not even a mid-level monk. With this great master in the late stage of Qi training, it will definitely be foolproof.
Some low-level monks quickly arranged the work of the vigil, and they all felt lucky in their hearts that this time they could have a master in the late stage of Qi cultivation go to the Misty Forest with them, this time the task was really to pick up spirit stones for nothing, if they could cooperate with this master in the late stage of Qi training, then they would be able to buy a low-grade spirit weapon.
Early the next morning, after the convoy was reorganized, it finally officially entered the misty forest.
There were no roads in this forest, but there were many caravans passing by, and the convoys had walked out of a path with a small trace.
But even as I walked on this road, I still felt that there was a little disgusting rancid smell in the air, and before I had gone far, many helpers were vomiting.
"Stand back!
Liang Zicheng was sitting in the carriage and pretending to sleep, when there was a sudden panicked cry in front of him, Liang Zicheng immediately walked out of the carriage, only to see that the front was already in chaos, and a second-order demon rat was standing upright, blocking the middle of the path. A group of low-level Qi cultivators were fighting against it.
Not far from the second-order demon rat, a carriage had been scattered on the ground, and many ordinary helpers were looking at the demon rat tremblingly.
I saw that the demon rat was more than two meters long, like a wall, his eyes were red, and his teeth were grinning, as if he didn't put the group of low-level Qi cultivation disciples in front of him in his eyes.
"Be careful, everyone. This is a second-order demon rat. We just need to delay a little time and wait for the seniors in the late stage of Qi cultivation to come out." A middle-aged man on the second level of Qi cultivation stood at the front of the monk and said.
Liang Zicheng looked at a group of low-level disciples in front of him who were wrestling with demon rats, and he released a fireball without thinking about it.
With a hint of wind, the fireball flew quickly towards the demon rat, the demon beast was particularly strong for danger, and when Liang Zicheng sent out the fireball, it already felt the danger.
But no matter how much it dodged, it didn't escape the fireball spell sent by the Tsukiji monk.
"Bang"! The fireball technique smashed the demon rat's body, and the demon rat fell to the ground without any struggle.
"Bang". The body of the demon rat slammed heavily on the ground, causing the low-level Qi cultivation cultivators who were besieging to show incredible expressions one by one.
You must know that this demon rat and their group of low-level monks will have to besiege it for at least half an hour, and if they are unlucky, they will have to pay the lives of several monks to successfully kill this demon rat.
"Brother Tiger, this demon rat is dead like this?" A low-level disciple of Qi cultivation didn't seem to believe that this demon rat was dead.
Brother Hu looked at the charred corpse, and subconsciously swallowed before saying, "I think it's dead."
"Are the monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation so powerful?"
Brother Hu thought about it carefully before he said, "I've also seen some late-stage Qi cultivation cultivator fighting techniques before, and they don't seem to be so powerful."
"Brother Hu, the monks in the late stage of Qi training are good at swordsmanship, how powerful do you say this senior is at using swordsmanship?"
"I don't know, looking at his dress, he must be a disciple of the Great Gate Sect, and the weapon in his hand must be a medium-grade magic weapon or above."
"Medium-grade magic weapon, I wonder if I can buy a medium-grade magic weapon in this life?" This low-level monk couldn't help but start to imagine that one day he would get a medium-grade magic weapon.
"With this master, our escort mission must be much easier this time. Alright, clean up the corpse of the demon rat." Brother Tiger immediately commanded several low-level monks to clean up the corpse of the demon rat.
Not long after Liang Zicheng entered the carriage, Boss Wang came to him and said, "Immortal Chief, here are some materials taken from the demon rat."
"You can give these things to those low-level monks." Liang Zicheng glanced at the material of the demon rat and immediately waved his hand.
"Yes, I'll do it." Boss Wang immediately withdrew from the carriage.
After a while, the carriage started slowly again, and along the way, several low-level demon beasts and ghosts came out to make trouble, and they were all destroyed by Liang Zicheng casually.
When the group of low-level monks and Boss Wang saw that Liang Zicheng could easily destroy those powerful demon beasts, they became more and more respectful to Liang Zicheng, and even some low-level disciples had a look of worship in their eyes.
Soon the sun had set, and night had fallen again, and none of the low-ranking monks and helpers in the escort felt frightened, for there was a great master in their ranks.
