Chapter 370: Huangya Cottage
The little boy listened to Zhao Xianglin's words, and under hope, he gave birth to a lot of strength, and led Zhao Xianglin to continue to go around the back of the mountain.
During the conversation, Zhao Xianglin learned that the little boy's name was Wei Zongbao, and the two twin sisters were named Wei Zongxia and Wei Zongni. According to him, their parents are really "hunters", but they are not ordinary hunters, but "hunters" who specialize in hunting monsters. The meat of monsters can be sold to restaurants, skins can be sold to cloth shops, bones can be used in medicine, and even can be used as materials for casting or treasure casting. If you're lucky enough to get the Demon Orb, you'll be even more profitable. Since the Demon Orb can be used as an attribute gem, it can be sold at a satisfactory price if you sell it on the street.
And that gang of villains is a group of people who live deep in the mountains. Wei Zongbao only knew that one day after his parents received a letter, they were sad for a long time, and then his mother packed up some soft and rushed to the nearest big city with him and his two younger sisters overnight. However, not long after he went out, he was "invited" to the depths of the mountains by some big men who had been waiting in the middle of the road.
In the camp of the villains, they met their father. After being forced to drink a bowl of wine from the villain's leader, both parents fell to the ground and died. Later, there was a scene where the villain leader gave his three children seven days to escape from the mountains.
After listening to Wei Zongbao's story, the two also went to the hiding place of his two sisters. It is more appropriate to say "waiting for death" than "hiding". The two children, who were unconscious from hunger, were cuddling each other and sleeping under a raised rock.
"Sister, do you have anything to eat?" Wei Zongbao licked his chapped lips and looked at Zhao Xianglin with blank eyes.
"No, you wait here, I'll get you something to eat. Zhao Xianglin looked at the surrounding situation, it was already completely dark, and it was almost impossible to catch any beasts and birds in a short period of time under this situation. But she had another way. She walked around the grass nearby, brought back seven or eight large and fat grasshoppers, grasshoppers, mantises, and crickets, gathered a bunch of dead leaves and grass and set them on fire, and roasted the worms.
The insects were roasted and "hissed", Wei Zongbao slurred saliva in his mouth, and said regretfully: "Why didn't I think of this? Insects can also be eaten, and if I had thought of it, I wouldn't have starved!"
Zhao Xianglin smiled slightly: "Not every kind of insect here can be eaten, many of them are highly poisonous, and eating a small thin leg can also make you bleed." Besides, even if you fill your stomach, will you be able to get out of this vast mountain in seven days?" Actually, it was about four days away from the populated outside world, and for children who had not cultivated, that little bit of foot strength was not enough at all.
Perhaps smelling the tempting aroma of roasted worms, the two little girls struggled to sit up, took the cooked worm skewers, and devoured them. Afraid that the three children would not be able to eat enough, Zhao Xianglin went to catch more than a dozen strings of insects, all of which were roasted to crispy and fragrant. The aroma attracted two squirrels, and naturally, they became a barbecue meal.
The problem of hunger was temporarily solved.
The three children touched their lips, grabbed Zhao Xianglin's sleeve and refused to let go.
"Let's go, sister will take you to my friend's place, with us protecting you, no matter what kind of villain comes, all of them will be beaten down!" Zhao Xianglin made a fist swing that made the children giggle.
"Hehe, I said how can there be a fragrance, it turns out that you are doing ghosts!" Suddenly, a strange laugh of yin and yang drifted over with a cool night breeze.
"Who's it!!" Zhao Xianglin shouted, and she hurriedly took the three children behind her. The children were so frightened that they hid behind Zhao Xianglin and didn't even dare to come out.
Zhao Xianglin didn't know the bottom in her heart, firstly, because she didn't know where the person who was shouting was hiding, and secondly, she didn't know what kind of strength the other party was and how many people came. "Hey, as long as he is a cultivator, I'm afraid he will be better than me, and there will be no drama to sing now. Zhao Xianglin's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and she was thinking about what to do. It's hard to get out, and it's even more difficult to save three children. She regretted not following Hua Qingyu's advice, if Du Huairou followed at this time, it would be much easier.
"You dare to break into my Imperial Cliff Realm alone, don't you know that you have to go to the Imperial Cliff Cave to ask for peace first?" The other party flashed out of the woods, and only a figure could be seen in the darkness.
"'Yellow Tooth Realm'? What else do you ask for when your teeth are yellow, hahaha!" Zhao Xianglin pretended to laugh calmly. She knew that the more timid she was, the more dangerous it was. On the contrary, the more blind you are, the more suspicious the other party will be.
It's a pity that the other party doesn't eat this set. "Yo ho, dare to laugh at the good name that the boss personally gave us on our territory, and the courage is really not small! Tonight, Lao Tzu will arrest you and go back to worship my Huangya banner!" I don't know if this person is used to being domineering, or if he doesn't have the cautious and suspicious brain at all, so he brandished the magic knife and rushed straight over.
Unarmed and lacking in strength, Zhao Xianglin barely flashed the first few knives, but in order to protect the three children behind her, she still hung up. The man raised the bright yellow light magic knife, licked the blood on the blade, was extremely excited, and laughed wildly: "Haha, what a great guy I should be!
"Wait!" Zhao Xianglin shouted, staring at the man with eyes that almost killed the other party - although she knew that in such a dark environment, I was afraid that the other party would not be able to see anything, "If you dare to cut this knife, I will immediately call you to a different place!" Zhao Xianglin said angrily.
"Fart!" the man slashed down on the head without mercy. Zhao Xianglin had already expected this, and before the words fell, she grabbed the three frightened children and rolled down the slope, and the person split into the air. He shouted loudly, "Wow, yes", the blade shook, and a knife wave chased after the four of them, and the blades of grass were flattened together, if Zhao Xianglin dodged, the three children would die, and if she didn't hide, she didn't know if she could survive it.
In a dilemma, Zhao Xianglin turned her heart sideways, or left the last ray of hope to the three children, and opened her arms to block the angle of the knife wave to the greatest extent.
"Bang", a strange sound, Zhao Xianglin only felt that he had received an extremely heavy blow to his chest, and the moment he hit, his chest suddenly contracted, and a suffocating sense of impending death swept through his body. When I opened my eyes, the knife wave had turned into a point of light and dissipated. "This is ......" Zhao Xianglin was extremely surprised, could it be that there were masters secretly helping each other, "No, no, it's a matter of respending!" She suddenly remembered the scene of turning herself into wood in the Litai Mountain Rain Temple. "Zhu Yuanlai once said: 'In times of crisis, the sorrow will turn from grass to wood or even stone to camouflage and protect itself. Looks like it was the one who blocked the knife wave for me this time. β
Equally surprised was the bad guy. He was going to make a string of sugar gourds, but he was blocked by the woman who had no weapons and was not strong with her flesh and blood!" "She has a treasure to protect her body!" This was the first thought that came to his mind, so he drank: "Good guy, there are still such strange treasures! Hand it over quickly, save Lao Tzu from doing it!"
"Daydreaming! You can't kill me!" Zhao Xianglin sneered. In fact, she knew very well in her heart that the severe pain from the wound on her chest also reminded her all the time, and I was afraid that I would not be able to stop it if I came again.
"I can't kill you, I can't kill them?" the wicked man grinned and pointed at the three children.
"I've warned you, but you don't know what's wrong. I've asked my friends for help, and when they arrive, it's your time to die!" Zhao Xianglin didn't show the slightest fear.
The wicked man laughed even harder: "'The mountains have mountain ghosts, and the water has water ghosts.'" You don't even know this, what kind of friends are you talking about? Listen, I'm afraid your friends have already been dismantled......
"Flutter", a long purple rainbow pierced the wicked's neck like lightning, and before he could finish his sentence, his head rolled to the ground with a gruntβhe was really in a different place.
"Are you alright?" a female voice came from the darkness in the distance.
Zhao Xianglin recognized that it was Guan Lingyun's voice. She sat down on the ground and sighed, "Oh my God, it's a man!"
Guan Lingyun walked out of the grass with the purple crossbow in his hand, looked at the corpse that fell to the ground, and said, "It's okay, it's just in time." Thanks to him holding a shiny magic knife and pestle and talking nonsense there, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to aim at it. β
"Almost died at the hands of this shameless man. Thinking of the crisis just now, Zhao Xianglin was still afraid for a while.
"The master and Xiao Gongzi were also attacked, so they ordered our sisters to scatter to find your whereabouts. What are the three of them?"
"Let's go back first. Zhao Xianglin looked at the three poor children who had witnessed too much killing, and was distressed. As for the safety of Xiao Tianhe and Hua Qingyu, she was not worried at all. It's like a guy lying on the ground, I'm afraid thirty or fifty is not enough for Zhu Yuan to clean up alone.
......
After meeting up with his companions, Hua Qingyu also summoned several other demon clans back. Zhao Xianglin told everyone about this short and dangerous encounter.
"'Yellow Fang Realm'? Could it be that this is also a borderless place?" Xiao Tianhe wondered.
Regarding this, Zhao Xianglin is very sure: "No, it's not. The name 'Yellow Fang' had never been heard of in the Borderlands. The dead man also said that 'Yellow Fang' was the name given by their boss. β
"But it was quite surprising. It's a remote place, and there will be a group of wicked people living in seclusion. "Hua Qingyu said.
Zhao Xianglin said angrily: "What is 'seclusion', it is obviously evil!"
"However, this mountainous area is inaccessible, and it is only three or four days away from the nearest village, who are they doing evil?" Hua Qingyu asked a difficult question, and everyone could not find a reasonable explanation.
Zhao Xianglin said: "Whatever, he's not a good person anyway." Let's go to that 'Yellow Tooth Cave' and take that gang of scoundrels to the nest!"
Wei Zongbao pulled the hem of Zhao Xianglin's clothes: "Sister, don't go! That group of people is very powerful! All of them kill people without blinking!"
Zhao Xianglin squatted down and comforted: "Don't worry, my sister's friends are more powerful than those guys." They killed your father and mother, don't you want revenge?"
"Yes. Wei Zongbao nodded.
"Then take us to the 'Yellow Tooth Cave'. β
"Okay, you come with me!" Wei Zongbao led his two younger sisters to walk in front, and Zhao Xianglin followed with several other demon clans.
Hua Qingyu looked at the backs of the three children, frowned, walked to Xiao Tianhe's side, and whispered, "It seems that something is not quite right......"
Xiao Tianhe gently patted the back of Hua Qingyu's hand and advised, "Let's go and see first, stay vigilant." β
After following Wei Zongbao for three days, a majestic peak stood in front of everyone. In fact, it is not far from the starting point, but it is a high cliff canyon all the way, which is extremely difficult to walk. The peaks were towering and full of rocky muck, and among the many turquoise mountains, this gray-black peak stood out.
"Right on top of the hill. Wei Zongbao pointed to an inconspicuous mountain road, "You can go up from here." β
"Don't go up up to the three of you, lest you be distracted and protect you. Zhao Xianglin said.
The three children nodded, and obediently walked to rest beside a rock not far away.
Zhao Xianglin said to Guan Lingyun: "Miss Guan, I think you can stay and take care of them." β
"Good. Guan Lingyun responded.
Hua Qingyu said: "Brother He, Miss Du and Miss Tian also stayed together, so they could take care of each other." β
"Yan'er and Xiaoxue, you two should also stay, to be sure. "Xiao Tianhe to Li Cuiyan and Bai Yingxue.
Although it is safer to have more people, Zhao Xianglin faintly feels a little weird, and it is a bit of a fuss to let the six demon clans protect the three children.
So, Xiao Tianhe, Hua Qingyu, Zhao Xianglin, plus Yang Yuemei, Zhu Yuanlai, and Cheng Yufei, a total of six people walked to the mountain.
Halfway through, Zhu Yuan said: "I hope that group of people can have some real skills, and don't be like those minions who came to sneak attack before, it is not interesting to fight at all." β
Cheng Yufei shook his head and said, "I really don't understand you, why do you want to meet a powerful opponent? What if you lose the battle or even lose your life?"
"Haven't you heard of 'Enlightenment with Battle'? I Zhu Yuanlai was born to be a general, and without a high-level battle, I can't improve. I'd rather fight a few more battles than to cultivate slowly. "Among the Seven Demon Clans in the Prison Realm, Zhu Yuanlai is indeed a belligerent person, and he has a bit of a 'fear that the world will not be chaotic'.
"We won't make a move for a while, we will all leave it to you to clean up, how about it?" Yang Yuemei said with a smile.
"No problem, you just wait to watch the show!" Zhu Yuanlai pinched his joints so that they "crackled", and "watching the show" was his mantra.
After climbing for a few hours, the crowd gradually descended into the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain. Further down the hill, there was a gray color. As for the companions who remained at the foot of the mountain, they were completely invisible.
"Ha, there!" Zhu Yuanlai pointed into the distance.
In the mist, a gate loomed. When I looked closer, I saw that the gate was about four or five feet high, and it was made of thick and long bamboo. The walls that spread on either side of the gate were made up of wooden piles with sharpened tops. A sentry platform was erected on each side of the gate, and there were also sentry posts at intervals on the stake wall. There were figures shaking on each platform, and when they saw someone coming, there was a noise immediately from inside the gate.
"Stop, who's coming, report your name quickly!" shouted a doorkeeper.
"My surname is Ni, the 'Qin' of 'admiration', the 'butterfly' of 'butterfly'! I am an old friend of your family leader in the past, and I am here to meet you this time!" Zhu Yuanlai also replied loudly. Several others covered their mouths and chuckled.
"'Ni Qindie' is it? Okay, you wait!" said again.
"Alas!" Zhu Yuanlai shook his head again and again, "This person, there is really no end to being stupid." β
A few people laughed even harder. The poor minion must be rewarded with a few heavy mouths by the leader.
While waiting, several people took a closer look. The bamboo door is divided into two doors on the left and right, and there are two wooden boards with written words hanging on them: "The emperor is born to be blessed", "There is a good fortune on the top of the cliff". There are also three big characters on the high lintel: "Huangya Boundary".
"Heh, it turned out to be such a 'Emperor Cliff Realm'. This leader probably wants to be the emperor, right?" Zhao Xianglin said with a smile.
After a while, there was another commotion from inside the gate, and a loud voice shouted, "Bah! What kind of miscellaneous pieces are coming from outside, daring to tease this king?"
It turned out that the leader himself had stepped in. It's no wonder that some people reported the name of "your father", and if you think about it with your toes, you can understand that you are here to kick the camp.
There was a "creak" sound from the door, and the two doors slowly opened inward.
Hey, there are really a lot of people in the door, and there are more than 100 people in a rough count. About half of them were carrying torches, illuminating the area. Almost all of them were armed with magic knives or fairy swords, only the few people in the front were empty-handed, and their clothes were the most gorgeous, obviously, they were the leaders of this "Emperor Cliff Realm" cottage.
Seeing that there were four people coming, one of the leaders was a red-faced fat man who asked a minion next to him, "Which one?"
While rubbing the left side of his face that obviously had palm prints, the minion pointed at Zhu Yuan and said, "It's him!
There was a crisp "snap", and a loud slap slapped the right side of the minion's face again, and he squatted on the ground wailing. This poor fellow, until now, I don't know why he was beaten.
Zhu Yuanlai smiled and bent over.
"Are you the ones who broke into the realm of the Emperor Cliff a few days ago?" the red-faced fat man pointed at the four of them one by one, and his eyebrows were angry.
"Are you the ones who sent people to attack us a few days ago?" Zhu Yuan came to return the tooth for a tooth, and also passed those leaders one by one.
"Big brother, what are you talking about? The man killed the sacrificial flag, and the woman stayed behind to fill the village!" the other leader flashed his magic sword.
Zhao Xianglin clapped his hands and admired: "Tsk, it's not a loss, it's the leader, it's really thoughtful!"
"Little ones, give me ......," the leader raised his arms, but was stopped by the fat red-faced man.
"Wait, what do you have to do with my Emperor Cliff Realm, why do you want to kill my men?" the red-faced fat man asked. He already knew that the people he had sent out would probably never come back.
"If you don't kill you, will you be killed by them obediently?" Zhao Xianglin pursed her lips, "You wantonly killed people, and you lost your conscience, and you didn't even let go of the three poor children! Today, we are here to avenge their unjust death!"
The red-faced fat man had an inexplicable look: "Three children?
"Hmph, it's still garlic!" Zhu Yuanlai showed a shovel.
At this time, the red-faced fat man's face changed suddenly, and he was slightly panicked, and he shouted loudly: "So you are a gang!
The cry shook the sky, and the group of people besieged them like fierce gods.
And the red-faced fat man, at this time, turned around and ran wildly into the depths of the cottage - he actually escaped!
