Chapter 104: Pilgrimage

Not long after, Han Li and the others came to the predetermined landing location on the island, a beach on the west side of Red Moon Island.

To the surprise of the three of them, this area was quite barren and uninhabited, but it was not surprising to think of the closure of Red Moon Island for thousands of years.

As for some of the warnings and prohibitions laid here, although they were quite cleverly concealed, for the three True Immortal Realm cultivators, they were naturally easily avoided.

Even so, the three of them didn't dare to be careless at all, hid their breath, and slowly flew towards their first target, a place called Tianshui City, according to the predetermined route.

At this moment, there were clouds in the sky, and there was a thick layer, and the three of them flew in the clouds, more hidden.

Han Li flew as he overlooked the environment on the island.

The western part of Hongyue Island is flat, with few undulating peaks, mostly plains, lush vegetation and continuous forests stretching to the end of the horizon.

I don't know if it's because of the quality of the soil, but most of the trees on the island are red.

The sea breeze blows, and the leaves of the trees rise and fall, like a beating sea of fire, which is very spectacular.

When the three of them finally flew out of the forest area, a plain appeared in front, dozens of miles away from the forest, there was a small city, looking from a distance, you can see the three big characters "Fenghai City" written above the city gate.

The sheep-faced Jiaojiu, who was flying in front, suddenly raised his hand and stopped retreating.

Seeing this, Han Li and Tiger-Faced Jiao Sixteen also immediately stopped.

"But what did you find?" Jiao Sixteen asked, his gaze sweeping around.

"Since we entered the island, it is rare to see a city, so it is better to confirm the location first. After all, the map given by the three Jiao people is not accurate, don't go astray. Jiao Jiu replied in a deep voice.

"It's fine. Hearing this, Jiao Sixteen nodded.

Han Li naturally didn't have any opinion on this, after all, after flying for half a day, he really needed to confirm the direction.

The three of them fell silently from mid-air and walked in the direction of the city.

As a result, when the three of them came to the city, they were all slightly stunned.

In this seemingly small city, not only are the gates closed, but the city is deadly silent, and there is no sound coming out, as if there is no one inside!

"Be careful, it may be an enemy's trap!" Jiao Jiu whispered to Han Li and the others.

Han Li and Jiao Sixteen nodded slightly, quietly approached the city, and after confirming that there were no prohibitions outside the city, they turned over and came to the city wall.

Because of Jiaosan's advice, the three of them did not directly release their divine senses to explore the situation in the city, but after searching by other means, they did not find anything abnormal in the city.

"It looks like it's just an empty city, but it's a bit of a fuss. Jiao Jiu muttered.

"Strange, this city doesn't look old, it should have been inhabited not long ago, and it doesn't look like it was attacked by something, how can it be empty?"

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly, and he was also quite puzzled in his heart.

He had just used his spiritual powers, and saw that many houses in the city were empty, and some shops were also closed, but there were traces of people staying, and it was indeed as if they had just left.

The wind blew through the empty streets, whining, some unclosed doors and windows swayed, making a clattering sound, and from time to time some wild cats and wild dogs scurried by, and there was a strange smell everywhere.

"What happens here has nothing to do with us. Now that we're in a confirmed position, let's go, the task is important. Jiao Jiu opened his mouth and said, obviously not wanting to pay attention to the matter here.

Han Li and Jiao Sixteen nodded, and they didn't bother to care about these trivial matters.

The three of them immediately bypassed the city and continued to fly forward.

Next, the terrain in front of them became more and more flat, and after a while, a fertile grassland appeared in front of the three of them, and they could see that there were many cattle and sheep, scattering and grazing, but there was no one nearby.

Even in some small villages and towns deep in the grassland, not a single figure was found.

At the end of this grassland, another city appeared.

After the empty city incident just now and what they saw along the way, although the three of them did not intend to stay here, they still subconsciously looked at it.

As a result, the three of them were shocked again.

"Hey, there's still no one in the city, so it's an empty city. Jiao Sixteen said a little strangely.

"Don't bother with it, maybe something has happened in this area lately, so people have migrated. Jiao Jiu said after a deep groan.

"If this is the case in the next city, I think it's necessary to inform the others. Han Li said.

"Let's take a look at it again. According to the map identification, there is a large city in the front of no more than 2,000 miles. Jiao Jiu nodded and said.

Sure enough, a moment later, a city appeared in front of the three of them.

The city is called Anseong, and the area is quite large, with a radius of hundreds of miles.

To the surprise of Han Li and the others, everything in this city was normal, the city gate was full of people, and the city was full of shops, which seemed to be very lively, in addition to mortals, there were also many low-level monks, which formed a sharp contrast with the two empty cities before.

"Hey, there are a lot of people in this city, shouldn't the people from the previous cities have come here?" Jiao Sixteen seemed to be a little relieved, and said in a teasing tone.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly, this Ancheng was not far from the empty city before, how could the situation in the city be so completely different.

"Two fellow Daoists, we still have plenty of time, the incident in the empty city here is quite weird, the so-called abnormal things must have demons, it is better to investigate a little. By the way, you can also collect some information about Red Moon Island from this castle. Han Li pondered for a moment and suggested.

"Jiao Fifteen's words are reasonable, it's better to be cautious. Jiao Sixteen looked at Han Li and nodded.

"Since both of you think so, let's investigate a little in this city, but be careful. Jiao Jiu said, stretching out his hand and pointing to a square in the center of the city below.

In the center of the square stood a blood-red statue, emitting bursts of faint blood-red light, covering a radius of 100 zhang.

The people nearby, whether they were mortals or monks, all had great respect for this red statue, and when they passed by here, they bowed down and saluted, but the monks in the city did not seem to have a high level of cultivation, and the highest was only the appearance of the Dan period.

Han Li had naturally noticed that statue earlier, it was an ordinary statue of the Earth Immortal who had gathered the power of faith.

The lord of Red Moon Island, Gong Hongnai, is an earth immortal, and it is not surprising that there are such statues in various places.

However, according to the information collected by the Impermanence Alliance before, Gong Yihong's cultivation method is quite special, and it seems that they can perceive the situation in various places through these statues, so when they sneak into Red Moon Island, they must not make trouble in various cities.

Han Li had always been skeptical of this statement.

Recently, he had looked up a lot of information about this kind of statues, these ordinary statues were just special containers for collecting the power of faith, not the incarnation of the earth, and they did not have the ability of the five senses.

But since the people of the Impermanence Alliance have spoken first, he naturally will not defy the Fa for no reason.

The three of them landed in a hidden place outside the city, and each of them urged the prohibition in their masks to transform their faces, turning into the appearance of three merchants, and mixed in the flow of people into Anseong.

Despite the masks, the three of them tried their best to restrain their breath.

Looking at the lively surroundings, Han Li felt a little emotional, and couldn't help but recall the scene when he and Liu Le'er walked in the mortal world together in the Linghuan Realm.

Although he had not yet regained his consciousness at that time, these bits and pieces of memories remained.

In such a cruel environment as the immortal cultivation world, it is especially rare for this little girl to be able to take care of herself as an elder brother, and he seems to have recovered some of the shadow of the little sister that has been vague in his memory from the other party.

Now, the woman has been taken away by the so-called clansmen, and I don't know where she went.

Just as he was thinking about it, Jiao Sixteen's voice came:

"There's a restaurant in front, so why don't you go there? ”

Han Li came back to his senses and looked in the direction the other party said, it was a three-story restaurant, and business was quite good.

As soon as the three of them entered the door, a shopkeeper who looked very clever greeted them.

"Arrange for us a quieter room. Without waiting for Xiao Er to speak, Jiao Sixteen spoke.

"Okay! Three objective please come with the little one. Xiao Er nodded again and again, and led the three of them to an elegantly furnished single room on the second floor.

"Go warm two pots of wine, and fry a few of your restaurant's best appetizers. Hurry up, take the silver, and don't look for the extra ones. After Jiao Sixteen sat down, he skillfully took out a silver ingot from his arms and threw it to Xiao Er, saying.

Hearing this, Han Li glanced at Jiao Sixteen, and looking at his appearance, it seemed that he often went in and out of this mundane restaurant.

At this time, Jiao Jiu also glanced at Jiao Sixteen more.

The shopkeeper took the silver, immediately agreed with a smile on his face, and walked out quickly.

"Hehe, let the two Taoist friends laugh. Although I don't know how many years have been in the valley, I can't give up these worldly wines and dishes. Jiao Sixteen noticed that Han Li and the others had some strange gazes, and said with some embarrassment.

"Where the Taoist friends say, the so-called people have their own good. Speaking of which, I also have some memories of these delicacies in the world, so I will enjoy them today and satisfy my appetite. Jiao Jiu laughed and said.

The shopkeeper quickly walked in with a food plate, which was full of all kinds of wine and food.

The craftsmanship of this restaurant is obviously good, the wine is mellow and fragrant, and people can't help but feel appetizing.

Jiao Sixteen filled the wine glasses of the three of them, and he didn't be polite to Han Li and them, he drank two glasses in a row by himself, and a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Han Li smiled slightly, and also picked up the wine glass and took a sip from his lips.

"The three guest officers used it slowly, and the small ones retired first. The shopkeeper said, and was about to turn around and exit.

"Wait a minute, Little Er. Jiao Jiu suddenly stopped the other party.

"What else do you have to order, guest officer?" the shopkeeper paused and turned around.

"The three of us are merchants from the South. A few days ago, we passed through Fenghai City and Molin City, why is it empty, I don't know if you people in Ancheng know about this?" Jiao Jiu asked with a smile.

"Oh, you said those two cities! They were all called on a pilgrimage to Red Moon City not long ago, so naturally the buildings were empty. The shopkeeper said with a smile.
