Chapter 141: The Long-Lost Peace (I)
As Long Potian expected, it was already seven days after arriving at the destination.
They came to a valley, this valley is nothing special, there is no prohibition, there is no powerful formation protection, unless by chance, no one can stay here for a moment.
It fell to the bottom of the valley, the sun was shining outside, but it was very shady inside, and the valley floor was quite humid because the sun could not shine all year round.
Long Potian led the way in front, and he didn't know how long he hadn't come, in front of him was overgrown with shrubs, intertwined, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to move here at all.
Using his sharp claws to carve out a passage here, the valley mouth above became narrower and narrower as he advanced, and finally only a little gap could still see the blue sky, and the ground became more and more difficult to walk, and finally the ape spirit and Ao Fan flew up and followed behind Long Potian.
After walking for a long time, Long Potian finally led them to a hidden cave, and it could be seen that this cave was not natural, although the entrance of the cave had been covered by various tree vines, it could still be seen at a glance that it was artificial.
Cutting down the vines and entering the cave, a musty smell comes to my nose. The dragon raised his index finger, and a flame burst out, illuminating the cave. Shandong is not big, only 30 square meters in size, and there is no difference between ordinary caves except for stones.
Long Potian walked to the middle of the cave, with a slight force under his feet, and with a slight friction sound, Long Potian's body sank slightly, as if he had activated some mechanism.
The ape spirit stepped forward to check and found that there was a square depression in the place where Long Potian had just stepped on, and it seemed that it was used to inlay something.
Long Potian took out a piece of jade, that piece of jade ape spirit is familiar with, it is the two pieces of jade he has now, but whether it is the appearance or the material, the one in Long Potian's hand is not as good as the one that the ape spirit got in Black Wind Town.
The ape spirit asked seemingly casually, "What is this?"
Long Potian explained, "This is the jade we used to activate the magic array. A part of the formation is engraved inside, and you must be careful when using it, once you get the wrong direction or angle, the formation will deviate, although it will also be activated, but no one knows where it will teleport people to. ”
The ape spirit continued to ask, "Does everyone have such a jade?"
Long Potian shook his head and said, "No, only when the strength reaches the realm of the Immortal Monarch can you have jade, and the shape and material of the jade will also change with the improvement of strength." It's like mine is square, and Shirata Li is pentagonal, and Weaver is hexagonal. So far, hexagonal jade is the highest grade jade, and it can enter anywhere at will. ”
The ape spirit was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that the two pieces of jade he owned turned out to be such high-grade goods, although he didn't know how it fell into the hands of the black-robed man and the string fairy, but the ape spirit felt that there seemed to be something related to it.
Embedding his jade in the groove, with a flash of light, a teleportation formation appeared on the ground, and then a spatial door formed, like a mirror, but nothing was reflected in it.
Long Potian let the ape spirit and Ao Fan in first, and then retrieved the jade and rushed in before the space door disappeared.
This time the teleportation only took a short second, and the ape spirit just felt that he had passed through a cool curtain of water, and then a new world appeared in front of him.
The place where they appeared was a swamp with a miasma over it, and the smell of rotting plants rising from the pool below made the whole air smell of foul odor. The humidity is high and the sun is soaking, which adds up to the worst.
Ao Fan and Long Potian appeared from behind one after another, seeing such a scene, Ao Fan was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that the lair of this group of people would be in such a place.
Long Potian didn't speak, and flew forward in the lead. There was silence along the way, not knowing what was going on in my mind.
After flying for a few hours, the sun was about to set, when a half-human, half-demon monster finally flew in front of me.
When the monster saw Long Potian, he immediately saluted and said, "Your subordinates, see your lord." ”
Long Potian said lightly, "Where is Lord Bai Tianli?"
"Lord Bai is in the courtyard. ”
Long Potian nodded, and without further ado, he continued to fly with the ape spirit and Ao Fan. As you go deeper into the swamp, the surrounding scene changes, the air becomes fresher and fresher, and the miasma that envelops the air fades a lot.
Finally, when they flew over the swamp, a new continent appeared in front of them. It seemed like a whole new continent, inhabited by all kinds of creatures, and without houses, everything seemed natural. All kinds of animals also play leisurely on the fertile ground.
This was beyond the ape spirit's original expectations, and he thought that the place where this group of people lived should be a battlefield full of blood.
Long Potian flew directly into a mountain peak with them halfway up the mountain, and after passing through the passage, they came to a secluded courtyard.
Bai Tian Li was sitting in the courtyard, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and was savoring the taste with his eyes closed.
When Long Potian fell in front of him, Bai Tianli did not get angry as he imagined, but opened his eyes and asked, "Are you back?"
Long Potian nodded and said, "Yes, my lord." The subordinates were ashamed and survived. ”
Bai Tianli shook his head and said, "There are losses and wins in wars, and you will definitely face punishment in peacetime, but this time the fronts in various districts are not optimistic, and combat effectiveness is very needed, so as long as you can offset the merits and demerits, it should be fine in the end." It's an ape spirit, I didn't expect you to survive, it seems that I still have a very good eye for people. ”
The ape spirit looked at Bai Tianli in front of him, and said with a smile, "It's all thanks to Lord Long, if it weren't for Lord Long to protect his subordinates, his subordinates would have gone to the Netherworld Mansion to see King Hades a long time ago." ”
Bai Tianli smiled, looked at Ao Fan, and said suspiciously, "Who are you?"
Ao Fan took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said, "In Xia Fan Ao, see your lord." ”
Bai Tianli looked at Ao Fan and said, "Yes, those who can survive on the battlefield will more or less have a little catty." Well, since it's a good thing that you've survived, you'd better go back and heal your wounds, and come back to me when you're healed. I'll assign you tasks when the time comes. ”
Long Potian nodded in farewell, and Ape Spirit and Ao Fan also left one after another.
Since the ape spirit and Ao Fan were mixed in and did not have their own residence, they decided to live temporarily in Long Potian's residence. In this way, we can take care of each other, and it will be easier to do things.
Long Potian's residence is not far from Bai Tian Li, in the middle of a large lake, with a small wooden house in the canopy of a towering ancient tree.
Push the door in, and the fresh air comes in, and there is nothing inside, except for a cushion in the middle of the house. Nothing else.
Back at his home, Long Potian seemed to be relaxed, and walked to the mat and sat down a little tiredly.
Ape Spirit and Ao Fan came to Long Potian's body and asked, "Why do you look listless?"
Long Potian glanced at the ape spirit and said bluntly, "This is my home, and you are here to destroy this place in the future." But I've become an accomplice, and if it were you, would you be happy?"
Ao Fan snorted and said disdainfully, "It's not because you are greedy for life and afraid of death that you agreed to help us." ”
Long Potian snorted coldly, "Yes, I'm afraid of death." But it is the instinct of living creatures to want to live. No creature would be willing to die when it had a way to live. ”
The ape spirit deeply agreed with this, nodded and said, "That's right, whether it's a human demon clan or a dragon clan, they will only work hard to become stronger in order to survive." However, you have used the wrong method to achieve your current strength at the cost of trampling on the lives of the demon clan. This is something I cannot tolerate. ”
Long Potian smiled bitterly and said, "You say this because you are a demon clan, and you are standing in the position of the demon clan, so you think so." But I am a human being, and there is nothing more important in our eyes than ourselves. Besides, the demon clan used to slaughter humans. If you really want to pursue it, your demon clan has committed no less sins than us humans. ”
The ape spirit stared at Long Potian for a while, then stood up and said, "It's better to take care of your injuries." This stuff might be of some use to you. After speaking, he threw a small bottle to Long Potian, which contained a small amount of transparent liquid, which was Heavenly Spirit Water.
Long Potian didn't know what he was holding, but now that his life was in the hands of the ape spirit, he didn't have any estimates, and drank the vial of liquid.
Who knew that when these liquids entered the body, they immediately turned into a warm current and began to circulate in the meridians in the body, and the injured body was healing at an incredible speed, not only that, but even the dark diseases that were left in the body by the previous fusion also showed signs of recovery.
Long Potian was overjoyed, and he didn't care about what he drank, so he quickly sat down cross-legged and began to meditate, controlling this warm current to keep running in his body, and soon settled down.
After the ape spirit and Ao Fan got out of the cabin, they came to the lake and made a simple cabin using the surrounding trees.
By the time this was done, it was already dark. Sitting in front of the wooden house, lighting a bonfire, and looking at the shining stars in the sky, both of them were silent.
In the end, it was Ao Fan who spoke first and said, "You are still too soft-hearted. ”
The ape spirit asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Originally, you didn't need to give Long Potian Heavenly Spiritual Water, but you still gave it, just because he said what he said just now. You know, what humans are best at is quibbling. ”
The ape spirit smiled slightly and said, "Maybe." But he's right, whether it's humans or demons, they're just creatures struggling to survive. The law of the jungle is simple. Whether it's me, him, or you, everything you think is based on your own position, and that's understandable. Besides, I gave him the Heavenly Spirit Water just so that he could recover his strength as soon as possible. ”
Ao Fan looked at the ape spirit, opened his mouth and still didn't say anything, and finally shook his head and sighed, and entered the cabin, leaving only the ape spirit sitting in the open space and looking up at the sky, a pair of black eyes shining like stars, smart and magical.
