Chapter 43: The Journey

Ding Xing always thought that the 'Four Heavenly Kings' had stolen an empty cellar, but he didn't expect that even the golden dew liquid would be brought to him.

The loss on the village is really great.

It is no wonder that Zhuang Shang has been hunting down the descendants of the 'Four Heavenly Kings' for three years, no matter who he is, he will not give up.

"How did my uncle get hurt?"

In the past few years, Ding Xing has heard that the treasure chasing task released by Zhuang Shang is very dangerous.

After all, if you want to go deep into the barren domain of the border, those boundaries are chaotic, and the wild cultivators are aggressive, not to mention the Qi cultivation period monks who go on an expedition, even if the seniors of the Xuan Fetal Stage are inevitably injured, and even death occurs from time to time.

Wu Changsui said: "In the Tiandong Desert, your uncle captured the descendant of the 'Four Heavenly Kings', and after searching the soul, he learned that the other descendants were located in the Rolling Dust Mountains, he first sent the news back to the village, and when Shaogong personally rushed over, they went south together." ”

Ding Xing interjected casually: "One hundred thousand Nanshan is dusty! That land boundary is full of barren mountains, and wild cultivation is piled up, even Shaogong is afraid that he will be troubled." ”

Wu Changsui echoed: "It's difficult." ”

Soon after Ding woke up and entered the village, he experienced an incident of white-hoofed devouring the lord, and after the white-hoofed horse bit Wu Tiande to death, the place of escape was the Dust Mountains.

There is also a loose cultivator who Ding Xing met in Jiuzhuang Ji, who grew up in the mountains since he was a child, which left a deep impression on Ding Xing, so he paid more attention to the geography of the Rolling Dust Mountains in his daily life.

Wu Changsui heard that he knew this mountain range very well, so he skipped some unnecessary explanations: "Let's continue to track down the whereabouts of the spirit cellar, the news has long been spread, and the dust monk also knows about it, after Shao Gong entered the mountain, he was targeted by an indigenous old monster, this old monster has the early cultivation of the Xuan Fetus, is good at controlling the Yin Corpse Puppet, and has three corpses of copper, iron, and gold, and is nicknamed 'Three Corpse Old Monsters'."

When Shao Gong found the foothold of those descendants, and killed them only the last person, the three corpse old monsters suddenly rescued people in order to explore the bottom of the spirit cellar, Shao Gong insisted on cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, chasing all the way to the lair of the three corpse old monsters, and then doing another fight, this one we suffered, and your uncle's injury also started because of this. ”

Ding Xing asked: "Have you removed that root?"

Wu Changsui nodded at him, with a look of pride on his face: "Although the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, but our law is out of the upper sect, even if the three corpse old monsters have prestige in the local area and recruit a bunch of wild cultivators to help, they have not been able to keep that root, and there is not a single descendant of the 'Four Heavenly Kings' left, and they were all killed by us, but the price paid is a bit heavy, and several uncles have died in your uncle's family!"

For deaths like this, the dealer will give extremely heavy compensation.

The next time the upper sect recruits new disciples, Wu Shiqing's descendant children will be given priority to be pushed to the upper sect, if this child is eliminated by the upper sect, then when the next batch of golden dew liquid cellar is successful, one or more altars will be selected and handed over to the most potential juniors of Wu Shiqing's family to help this junior build a mysterious fetus.

Therefore, Wu Shiqing's family may not collapse due to heavy casualties, but can take over the family's power in a few decades.

After Ding Xing heard the ins and outs of this incident, he couldn't help but think to himself, if the 'Four Heavenly Kings' knew that their children had such a tragic ending, would they still choose to steal the Golden Dew Cellar in the first place?

It seems that no matter how powerful the ancestor is, he can't stop his children and grandchildren from becoming unsuccessful.

Ding Xing felt that the wine theft incident was about to come to an end: "Now that all the descendants of the Four Heavenly Kings are dead, is the treasure chasing task going to end?"

Wu Changsui shook his head exaggeratedly: "Before the spirit cellar is retrieved, the task will not be canceled, but Zhuang Shang has changed the content of the task, and he will no longer be forced to go out in the future, and the task will be carried out completely voluntarily! As long as Zhuang Shang Lingjiao, no spirit wine, no matter who finds the spirit cellar, he can take the remaining nine jars of golden dew liquid as his own!"

This is an inducement behavior made by Zhuang Shang in order to improve the enthusiasm of Zhuang people to go out to find cellars.

But there is a big problem in this, that is, the Nine Jars of Golden Dew Liquid may not still be there, in case it is drunk by the mountain ants, then the bamboo basket will be empty.

Ding Xing had already had the idea of leaving the village, but he had not yet chosen a place to travel.

At this time, when he heard the news of the golden dew liquid, his heart was already inclined to go to the Dust Mountain Range.

However, the mountain was a long way away, and it would take several months to travel, and it would take years to come and go, so he had to settle the orangery and make adequate preparations for the journey.

He would never go on the road hastily, it was a joke with his own life.

Let's talk to Brother Xiao Wu on this day.

Ding Xing came to Wu Shiqing's house that night, one to visit, and the other to borrow the demon slave Qingfeng.

On this expedition, he must be equipped with a capable mount.

When Wu Shiqing heard that he was going to the Rolling Dust Mountain Range, he disapproved at first, thinking that his cultivation was too low and it was too dangerous to travel abroad.

Later, when he saw that he was resolute, he did not continue to object, and asked him one thing: 'Your cousin Lian Chen has fallen into the mountains, and he does not know where he wanders, and when you arrive, you must look for him.' ’

Ding Xing returned from his hometown a few years ago and saw Wu Lianchen in the Spirit Beast Palace, and he had a very good impression of this cousin, so he asked, "How did my cousin fall?"

Wu Shiqing told him: "At that time, we followed Shao Gong to find the three corpse old monster fighting methods, he was besieged by several wild cultivators, and he was invincible with one fist and four hands, so he could only flee while fighting, and as a result, he lost his way, and when Shao Gong was about to leave, he could not be contacted, and there was no chance to find him, but he was definitely still alive, because his soul card had not been broken. ’

Ding Xing responded to this matter and promised to try his best to find it, but he did not boast that he would definitely find Wu Lianchen back.

Wu Shiqing also said that it is enough to make a modest effort, if he is in danger in the mountains, he should try his best to save himself, and told him not to rush to the road.

Ding Xing was not in a hurry at all.

For the next two months, he spent the next two months preparing for the trip.

He entrusted the affairs of the orange orchard to Fang Liangu and the Xiaowu brothers, and took out all the idle materials and treasures on his body, and went to Jiuzhuang Ji many times to buy the things he needed for travel.

During this period, I also looked for companions on a long journey.

The day before leaving, he found his right neighbor Wu Shizong and handed out a letter talisman.

This is the last thing Ding Xing needs to arrange: 'I left a soul card on the village, if I encounter an accident in Nanshan on this trip, please ask Uncle Wu to hand over this letter to my uncle on my behalf.' ’

Three years ago, Ding Xing rescued Wu Shizong during the locust plague, and after the disaster, Wu Shizong kept his promise and went to Binghua Mountain to ask Ding Chenzhi to come back, but Ding Chenzhi refused.

Ding Xing can be exempted from the task of chasing treasures, but Ding Chenzhi can't, if he returns to the village, he will still have to be dispatched, and the danger is greater than that of Binghua Mountain.

This is one of the reasons.

Moreover, Ding Chenzhi's requisition period has ended, and he is currently voluntarily staying in Binghua Mountain, Shangzong's expansion has been smooth, and he has opened up new territories along the mountain, and he has been rewarded with 500 acres of mountain land by Shangzong as the first batch of Zhuang people to follow.

There are more wild cultivators near Binghua Mountain, and when he heard that the great sects of Weiguo came to set up camp, they all rushed to take refuge, and Ding Chenzhi recruited several servants to work for him, so he could practice without distractions in Binghua Mountain.

In addition to being comfortable, ChΓ’teau Jinlu no longer has any attraction to Ding Chenzhi.
