Chapter 242: Gu Carving
After walking out of Yuyang for a few days, there were no changes along the way, and sometimes you could see a few low-level demon beasts wandering in the distance, but none of these demon beasts dared to come over to provoke.
Because although these demon beasts are not enlightened, but after all, there are still some eyes, which can be regarded as a survival instinct, if they are facing weak mortals, then they will inevitably come to look for opportunities to find trouble, because these demon beasts are still quite interested in human flesh. However, if they sense that the people in the vehicles on the road are monks, and they feel that they are difficult to deal with, or even feel dangerous, then they will not attack, or not attack, but may flee immediately.
Liang Cheng and the others also walked all the way with the mentality that more things are better than less things, and since the low-level demon beasts they encountered on the way did not come to provoke, then they didn't bother to stop and look for trouble. After all, the road to Wuning is not close, so it is important to hurry. So there were almost no pauses along the way, and most of the time I was in a hurry.
More than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Wu Ning is getting closer and closer, but Liang Cheng found a strange phenomenon, that is, the demon beasts that he saw from time to time along the way were stronger.
Liang Cheng couldn't help but wonder a little, because this situation was completely different from the Great Xuan Kingdom, the closer the Great Xuan Kingdom was to the Gyeonggi Heavy Land, the weaker the demon beasts became.
I don't know why it's different in this Beizhang country, when I first came out of Yuyang, there were at most a few third- and fourth-level demon beasts along the way, and when I walked to this position that was getting closer and closer to the capital of Beizhang country, Liang Cheng saw a few fifth-level demon beasts, just half a quarter of an hour ago, Liang Chengdu also saw a fifth-level demon beast watching from a distance.
Of course, Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming didn't know about this matter at all, because the fifth-level demon beasts corresponded to the realm of human monks and were equivalent to monks in the foundation building period, and the demon beasts were generally stronger than human monks in the same realm, so it would be even more difficult for these two old rookies sent by Yuyang to find their traces.
Liang Cheng was thinking that this thing must be a little abnormal, because if the situation had always been like this, then how did the previous monks of the Shuntong Commercial Bank transport the saury of the Qinglan River, and he had searched for the soul of Lao Huang, a monk in the original foundation building period of the Shuntong Commercial Bank, remembered that in his memory, the journey from Yuyang to Wuning was not a big risk for the monks in the foundation building period.
It may be that something happened somewhere nearby, resulting in the appearance of some relatively high-level demon beasts, but Liang Cheng doesn't care too much about this, because as long as there is no eighth-level demon beast appearing, he can deal with it, as for the eighth-level demon beast appearing in the Gyeonggi region of Beizhang Kingdom, this possibility is too small, because the level of this level of demon beasts is too high, and the destructive power is too great, plus the demon beasts themselves are also very valuable resources, and the high-level monks of Beizhang Kingdom are not dead people, will they let it go?
Just when Liang Cheng was thinking about this, he suddenly felt that something in the distance was running towards the beast cart he was in at high speed, Liang Cheng's spirit body and demon body had the same mind, and at the same time discovered this anomaly.
Spirit body Liang Cheng "Li Yuyang" suddenly pointed in the opposite direction to Elder Liu: "Hey, Elder Liu, you see a strange big bird parked on the top of the mountain over there, I don't know what breed of demon beast it is, have you seen it?"
Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming were attracted at the same time and walked to the other side of the beast cart
Looking at the top of the mountain in the distance, he asked, "Where? Where is the big bird?" Why didn't I see it?"
Liang Cheng's demon body took this opportunity to exert the Insight Heavenly Eye, the vertical eye between the eyes opened, revealing the golden pupil, looking at the fast-moving thing in the distance, under the gaze of the Insight Heavenly Eye, the demon beast in the distance suddenly appeared in Liang Cheng's field of vision. Seeing this thing running in the distance, Liang Cheng was taken aback, only to see that it was a strange demon beast.
The reason why Liang Cheng was surprised was not because of how powerful it was, the demon beast that rushed over was just a first-level sixth-level demon beast, and Liang Cheng didn't take it seriously.
The reason for the surprise is that this monster beast looks too strange, I saw that it has the head of a big eagle, the black and hard beak is hooked, and the strange thing is that there is a single horn on the head, but the body is similar to a tiger and leopard, and there are black and yellow lines on the body.
Liang Cheng saw that the person who came was just a sixth-level demon beast, and he immediately put his mind at ease, and the insight on his forehead was closed. Seeing this, the spirit body "Li Yuyang" said casually: "Oh, it turns out that the mountain is not a big bird, it turns out that it is just the shadow of a big tree, I was mistaken, but you look at the other side of the beast cart, and now there is a bird's head and a beast body, and the appearance of this thing is called strange." ”
"What! there's something strange again!" Elder Liu muttered, and then he and Lian Xiangming hurriedly looked back to look, and after looking for a long time, they didn't find anything, Elder Liu was puzzled in his heart, and was about to turn around to ask, at this time, the demon beast had run closer and closer, and jumped up.
Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming saw the demon beast at this time, and they all gasped in unison, and Elder Liu said, "Ah! This demon beast is so strong......! This is a Gu Eagle!"
"Bone carving?" "Demon body" Li Hongyi shook his head and said: "What kind of strange name is this, I have never heard of it, but I think it seems to want to eat the horse we pulled the cart, this is not good, wait for the old man to give it some color and see." After saying that, he jumped out of the beast cart.
Sure enough, the Gu eagle came running like a fly, eagerly heading straight for the two green horses at the front of the car, one of the beaks wide open, making a sound similar to a baby's cry, and the hook at the front of it flickered with cold light.
The two green horses pulling the cart were obviously startled, and they couldn't help but run to the other side of the road, trying to dodge the Gu Eagle's attack, but the beast cart was pulled into a deflection and almost rolled over.
"Li Hongyi", who got off the beast car, grabbed the beast cart, firmly pressed the car in place, and let the two green horses not pull the car even a little bit no matter how they ploughed the soil in place, and the spirit body also jumped off the beast cart when he saw this, and firmly controlled the two frightened green horses, and the two frightened green horses struggled a few times and gradually quieted down.
Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming obviously had no experience, and they were slow to react, not to mention that they were still timid, but they just sat in the car at a loss, their faces pale and dumbfounded.
"Li Hongyi" let go of the beast cart and scolded at the Gu eagle who pounced on the side and made a sound like a baby's cry: "You evil animal! You still want to eat our livestock, how can you succeed! Eat my punch!"
After speaking, he smashed his fist towards the Gu Eagle, and with a "bang", the Gu Eagle that had just jumped up was smashed like a rolling gourd, and fell heavily to the ground, and a wisp of blood suddenly flowed out of the Gu Eagle's mouth.
This sixth-level demon beast Gu Eagle, who lacked intelligence, found that he seemed to have hit the iron plate, and hurriedly got up and wanted to run away, "Li Hongyi" was willing to let go, and another punch hit the Gu Eagle's head directly, only to hear a "click", the Gu Eagle's head burst open, but I didn't see how many brains flowed out, and then the thing lay on the ground softly, and it didn't move after a few four-legged kicks.
"Li Hongyi" looked at the dead Gu Eagle and said with a smile: "The head of this thing is almost empty, it is really stupid." Then he looked back at Elder Liu, who was sitting in the car in a daze, and asked, "Elder Liu, what did you just say this thing is called, is there anything special?"
"Huh?" Elder Liu was still stunned, but suddenly reacted a little, and hurriedly replied: "Oh, this demon beast has been mentioned in ancient books, carving the head of the beast, with a single horn on the head, and the voice is like a baby crying, the name is a Gu carving, a demagogic Gu, a carving of the big eagle, as for its special features...... According to the book, the taste of this Gu carving meat is very delicious. ”
"Oh, it's such a good thing, it's delicious. The demon body immediately became happy, and immediately packed the Gu Eagle that had been killed and put it into the storage bracelet, and then said with a smile: "Since it tastes good, then let's eat this tonight." ”
Then the four of them continued to urge the beast cart and hurried forward, Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming saw that this sixth-level demon beast was killed by Elder Li casually without any resistance, and then they felt the gap between themselves and the masters of the fusion period, and their hearts were also quite shocked and encouraged, and the self-motivation that had been silent for a long time was awakened, and they couldn't help but praise Elder Li's strong means along the way.
Then walked all day, nothing happened, see that the sky is getting dark, the beast cart came to a small town, from a distance this town is still densely populated, the lights of thousands of homes against the background of this town is quite eye-catching.
In fact, this town is not big, the scale seems to be slightly smaller than Yuyang Town, Elder Liu and Lian Xiangming just looked at the town from a distance, their faces showed a little fascinated, and they did not speak, because in the past, they did not enter the town, because they were in a hurry and they were all on the business road all night.
Elder Li Hongyi, who had transformed into a demonic body, smiled and said, "Elder Liu, we have been on the road, everyone is a little tired, right?"
Elder Liu also smiled and said: "Tired, it's a little bit, but it doesn't matter, we can still hold on, after all, this time the sect took over this business, and the financial resources are a little tight, let's hurry up and handle this matter well, and it's better to go back to Yuyang as soon as possible to save the emergency." ”
"Li Hongyi" said: "Well, we didn't delay the trip, we have been in a hurry some time ago, so we have saved a lot of time, there are still about two days away, we can reach the national capital Wuning." I think it's better for everyone to take a break today, go to this town to find a place to eat, relax, and then find an inn to rest for a night and wait for dawn before leaving. ”
When the two of them heard "Elder Li" say that Wu Ning was about to arrive, they were very happy, especially Lian Xiangming, a young man who was originally very lively, had been on the beast cart for more than ten days, and was already bored, and now they heard that they could go into the town to relax, and they couldn't help cheering.
