Chapter 258: Monsters
The old woman just looked at the bowl but didn't move, Qinghe said: "Old man, the porridge should be drunk while it is hot, it will be cold for a while." ”
Looking up at Qinghe, the old woman choked up and said, "I'm already old, and I'll leave the food for the children." ”
Qing He had already discovered that there were two children in the house, hiding in the shadows, and secretly peeping over here.
"Old man, there is still porridge, you call the children over and eat them together. ”
Qing He took out a pot of porridge, still steaming hot. This was specially prepared by her, and she asked Yuanyuan about the family's situation before she came.
When the old woman saw that there was a pot of food, she asked tremblingly, "Benefactor, this is all for us to eat?"
"Yes, it's all for you. Qing He nodded.
"Big head, little girl, come here, come to Grandma. The old woman beckoned to the shadows and asked the two children to come over.
The two children were skinny and moved slowly. They also want to be faster, but their bodies really don't have the strength. Hunger made them weak, and their eyes were full of hunger for food.
Qinghe took out the bowl and served rice to the two children.
"Old man, eat quickly. ”
When the three of them finished eating, the old woman quickly put away the rice bowl.
"Benefactor, thank you so much, it was you who allowed us to have a full meal and still be able to sustain it for a while. ”
"The elderly don't have to be like this, it's within my power. I'm here to find out about Ziying Xuancheng. Qinghe put forward the purpose of coming.
"Your strength, maybe you can try. The old woman muttered. As if having made a decision, she said, "The strange thing in the Ziying tribe started a year ago. I heard that the elders of the tribe went out to practice, and when they returned from serious injuries, they couldn't survive it. But who wants to get better all of a sudden, and his strength has increased greatly. ”
Then this elder controlled the patriarch and the others, and he didn't know what evil sect exercises he was practicing. By the time people realize that they are not resisting, it is too late. There are fewer and fewer people in the city, and now all that's left is an old immortal like me and a few children. ”
"Old man, what's wrong with the people on the street, they don't look right. ”
"I don't know, I heard people say that they are controlled by the evil sect exercises. The same is true of the guards at the city gates, who now find it difficult to leave. ”
"What is the strength of those guards, has anyone ever tried to force them out?" asked Qing He hurriedly.
"Some people broke through the gates, but they were killed. The guards were completely controlled and greatly strengthened, and if there was any movement at the gates, the elder would quickly appear and kill them all. I had seen with my own eyes the cruelty and gore of that elder. ”
"Where's that elder?"
The old woman shook her head, "I don't know. It looks more like a monster, though. The body is covered with black spikes, the eyes are red, and the mouth also has sharp black teeth, which are exposed and look scary. ”
"Then do you know what is the most powerful cultivation of the person who forcibly broke through the city gate?" Qing He wanted to know more, according to the old woman's words, then this elder was the root of everything. The strength of this elder must be figured out.
"It should be the Transfiguration Realm. I heard people say that once a group of outsiders were the leaders of the Transfiguration Realm and the three Divine Soul Realms. After fighting at the city gate for a long time, he was still killed. ”
"Old man, who was the strongest person in the Ziying tribe before?" Qing He asked differently.
"It's the patriarch, and he cultivated in the late stage of the transformation realm. There are also four elders, two of whom are in the Transformation Realm, and two of whom are in the Divine Soul Realm, all of whom were killed by the Monster Elders. The old woman recalled the despair of the people when they first heard this terrible devastation. At that moment, the strong man they pinned their hopes on had already been killed.
After thinking about it, Qing He said: "Old man, think about the battle at the gate of the city, how did the monster elder kill those people, is there anything abnormal?"
The old woman thought about it seriously and said, "I'm far away, and I can't see it very clearly." The black thorns on the monster elder's body seemed to be able to grow larger and smaller, and would pierce into the person's body, and then the person quickly dried up, leaving only a skeleton. ”
"Do you know who else knows these better?" Qing He looked at the old woman, "Old man, I also want to know more details, I am familiar with the monster elder, so that I can be more sure." We look forward to your help. ”
Leaving some food for the family, Qinghe went to find the person the old woman said. It is said that he is an old man, who successfully awakened his bloodline when he was young, his qualifications are mediocre, his cultivation is hopeless, and he is mixed with ordinary people. This time I was lucky enough to escape.
Like the old woman when he first saw him, the old man was very cautious, and his residence was very hidden, and he only appeared after repeated confirmation. Like the old woman, when they meet, they directly ask Qinghe's cultivation.
When the old man heard Qing He's answer, his rickety body immediately stood up straight.
"You, are you really in the Cave Heaven Realm?" Zi Yingfeng asked tremblingly.
Qing He nodded, "Really, I don't need to lie to you." ”
"Okay, great, it's finally here. Zi Yingfeng said happily, "Qinghe, yes, come in first, let's talk about it in detail." ”
Follow the old man through the dark aisle to the house inside.
Zi Yingfeng said warmly: "I am Zi Yingfeng, and you are very welcome to come." Let me tell you first, the current situation of Ziying Xuancheng, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. ”
The difference between the attitudes before and after is too great, and Qinghe is still a little uncomfortable. However, he still listened carefully to what Zi Yingfeng said.
Babbling on and on, Zi Yingfeng said a lot, including some details, the layout of Xuancheng, and his guesses. Finally, he looked at Qinghe expectantly.
This is the only powerhouse in the Cave Heaven Realm, Zi Yingfeng is full of confidence in Qinghe, and the person who has been waiting for a long time with hope is finally here. He knew that Qinghe was the hope to save Ziying Xuancheng and the fire and water, and the hope of the surviving people.
"Old man, what do you think I have a chance of winning?" asked Qing He.
"Ninety percent. Zi Yingfeng said without hesitation, "Three months ago, I personally witnessed the battle between the Monster Elder and the Transformation Realm, and I fought for more than an hour. Therefore, it is inferred that the strength of the Monster Elder is almost in the late stage of the Transformation Realm. Even if there has been progress in the past few months, at most it will be another realm. But you're different, you're already in the realm of the Cave Heaven, and you're definitely able to crush monsters. ”
"Then why don't you say that you are 100% sure of winning?" Qinghe asked rhetorically.
"There should be room for everything, not too absolutely. I'm 100% confident that you'll defeat the monster. Zi Yingfeng explained.
Qing He found that the people of the Ziying tribe knew a lot about the cultivation system, and even ordinary people knew about the transformation realm and higher cultivation levels. Curious, he asked, "How do you know that there is a realm above the Transfiguration Realm?"
"I didn't know before, but I still heard from those outsiders. Ever since the tribe had a change, we've been asking about this, and we still don't know much about it. Zi Yingfeng said bitterly, in the past, he also lived peacefully, and he didn't pay attention to these things that were far away from him. But now I have to understand and find ways to inquire.
