Chapter 180: Dead Air
Wang Yuze, who was flying in mid-air, could be said to have a lot of thoughts in his mind, for a while he remembered that his eldest brother Liu Rufeng talked about gods and demons, for a while he remembered Liu Ruoxi's affairs, and for a while he remembered the matter of returning to the earth, he didn't know who would be able to resist the gods and demons in the cultivation realm in the end, if he failed in the end, would the earth suffer one day?
Just like that, while thinking about it, he flew forward, most of the day passed, Wang Yuze was stunned and didn't see a figure, he couldn't help but wonder if he had gone in the wrong direction? But after taking out the jade pupil given by Huangfu Huofeng and looking at it again, Wang Yuze was sure that he should not fly wrong, but this idea became less and less firm with the passage of time.
When it was about to get dark again, Wang Yuze knew that he should find a place to rest, and flew in the direction of the jade pupil's simple finger for a day, during which he even used the ability brought to him by the wings of the blazing owl several times, although the speed was indeed amazing, and the consumption of the possible amount was much higher than usual, which had to make Wang Yuze sure that the ability to accelerate flight was better as a means of escaping.
After flying continuously for a day, although the true yuan in Wang Yuze's body still had residual strength, he knew that he had to stop and recover his true yuan.
According to the introduction of the jade pupil that Huangfu Huofeng left to himself, although there is already an endless grassland in front of him, this grassland is not as calm as it seems on the surface, because there is a kind of demon beast called the wolf, and there are hundreds of them every time they are dispatched, although the strength is not very strong, but the key is that there are too many of them, and as long as this wolf sees a human, it will attack with all its might, although it will not be injured, but it is annoying! Because this wolf can be said to have no use value, not to mention that there are no usable materials on its body, and even the meat of the wolf has a sour smell, which is difficult to swallow.
Wang Yuze is not afraid of wolves, but he doesn't want to have nothing to do, and now he just wants to find a hidden place to recover his true yuan.
Wang Yuze stopped and looked forward, with his eyesight, there was not even a hidden place at a glance. Then he looked to the left and right, and finally saw a faint black line at the end of the west, Wang Yuze guessed that there should be a small mountain range over there, as long as there was a mountain range, then he would have a safe place to cultivate, and it was still a little dangerous for a person to cultivate on the grassland.
Although he looked far away, with Wang Yuze's strength, it only took a stick of incense to come to the front of that small mountain range. But before he entered, he actually felt a breath of death around this mountain range, this discovery made his heart shocked, you know, only after a large number of living beings die at the same time will there be dead air, but around this mountain range will actually appear!
"What is the reason for this?"
After thinking about this problem, Wang Yuze fell into a dilemma, first, he didn't want to make extraneous branches, Liu Ruoxi's matter had not yet been resolved, as soon as he remembered that Liu Ruoxi was forced to take away, Wang Yuze's heart felt anxious, and second, if the investigation continued, who knows how long it would take? This will inevitably delay his plan.
Just as he was about to retreat, Wang Yuze faintly heard the sound of playing the flute.
"Well, if there are people, then this dead air ....... Wang Yuze knew that he couldn't just leave, if these dead qi were formed because of the death of a large number of human beings, then if he left like this, there would be flaws in the realm, and it was good for the realm to stagnate, if it eventually led to a fall, it would really be regretted and died.
Wang Yuze had no choice but to follow the sound of the flute, and he had already decided to see what was going on.
Not long after flying, Wang Yuze saw that the originally neat mountain range in front of him seemed to have been taken away by hand, and the place where it was taken away formed a canyon. He saw a patchwork of houses in the canyon, about hundreds, each with a faint light.
This was not what surprised Wang Yuze the most, what surprised him even more was that he heard crying in many houses. If it is normal to say that there are crying in one or two rooms, but now there are crying in about one-third of the rooms here, coupled with the dead air at the top of the mountain range, Wang Yuze suddenly has a very bad feeling in his heart.
Then he looked up at the dead air above his head, and he didn't know when it had become thicker.
"It seems that it takes a lot of people to die to form this dead air!" As soon as he finished muttering, the sound of the flute came again, and Wang Yuze listened attentively and found that the sound of the flute came from the halfway point of the canyon.
Wang Yuze looked carefully, and saw no reflection of the light over there, but he didn't know why the sound of the flute came from there.
The melodious and ethereal sound of the flute echoed faintly in the canyon, and the flute sound that could have made people feel happy was somehow desolate at this time. Just as Wang Yuze was about to pass, the sound of the flute stopped abruptly.
The sudden stop of the flute made Wang Yuze stunned, and he didn't understand why the other party suddenly stopped, just when he was puzzled and wanted to go up to check, the flute sound changed into a desolate and sad flute sound, and the villagers in the canyon heard this sad flute sound, and the crying sound became even louder. dog
Wang Yuze no longer hesitated, and flew over with a force under his feet.
When Wang Yuze saw the person playing the flute, the man also saw Wang Yuze, he immediately stopped, and then stood up suddenly, looking at Wang Yuze with sparkling eyes.
Wang Yuze was also carefully looking at the man in front of him, only to see that he was about forty years old, thin, wearing a black linen clothes, although simple, but clean and neat, at this time I saw him standing in place like a javelin, his upper body was straight. Beside him was a broad-backed broadsword and a horizontal flute, and he held a bamboo flute in his hand.
Wang Yuze didn't understand why the other party looked at him like this, but he still lowered his body, put away his sword and asked: "Hello this friend, my name is Wang Yuze, when I passed by today, I found that there was a lot of dead air here, I don't know what the reason is?"
The other party's eyes were still staring at Wang Yuze without blinking, until he thought that the person in front of him had a mental problem, and the other party asked, "Are you a cultivator?" The hoarse but neutral voice, coupled with his cold expression, gave people a cold feeling, and made people immediately know that this person was an unsmiling character.
Wang Yuze didn't expect the other party to ask him back, so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes! I don't know what your name is?" As he spoke, Wang Yuze felt the cultivation on the other party's body, and instantly determined that the other party was also a cultivator, but the cultivation was pitiful and pitiful, and he didn't even have the opening period.
"My name is Sandao!" replied succinctly.
But Wang Yuze became curious, Sandao? What is this name? Is this also a name? However, he did not intend to continue to dwell on the other party's name, but asked again in confusion: "What happened here?"
As soon as he finished asking, Wang Yuze didn't wait for the other party to answer, he turned his head to look down the mountain, because he heard footsteps.
Sure enough, a moment later, a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old walked up step by step with a basket in her hand, and before she could get closer, she shouted, "Uncle Sandao, I've brought you dinner." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up and saw that there was another person standing here, and she didn't know this person.
"Who are you, how did you end up here?" the crisp voice was childish, but there was no defensiveness in the tone.
"Hello! My name is Wang Yuze, I was passing by here, and I heard the sound of a flute coming from here, so I came to have a look. Wang Yuze replied to the other party without hesitation, but he didn't mention the lifeless thing, he saw the redness and swelling in the other party's eyes, so this little girl should have cried just now.
At this time, the other party had already walked to Sandao's side, put the basket on the ground, and then took out a few meals from it.
Wang Yuze saw that one of them was a bit like fried kelp, but it was blue, and the other was a bit like a tree root, but it was very slender, and in the last bowl was a green sticky food. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, this was the first time he had seen the food eaten by ordinary people on this planet, and he was just curious just now, so he took a closer look.
The little girl put her things away before she stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here, so I only brought food for one person, or you wait a little while I'll get it for you when I get home." ”
Wang Yuze hurriedly stopped the other party and stopped: "No need, I'm not hungry!Oh, by the way, my name is Wang Yuze, I don't know what your name is?"
After hearing this, the little girl first put the palm of her right hand on her head, grabbed her right wrist with her left hand, bowed slightly to Wang Yuze, and took her hand down before saying, "My name is Bottle, and I am a villager of this Pingshan Village." ”
Wang Yuze looked at the strange action of the bottle just now and guessed that this should be a local etiquette. He basically hadn't had much contact with mortals since he arrived at the Cultivation Realm, so he didn't know this kind of etiquette at all, but he still immediately said, "Bottle, you don't have to be like this! When I came here just now, I heard a lot of cries coming from the room, I don't know ......?"
After hearing this, the bottle's eyes turned red and she almost burst into tears.
