Chapter 121: Immortal Chief
The Tianlong faction and his party walked more than twenty miles to the east, crossing a wide and dry river valley before they were far away from the fire. The fire behind him had already reflected half of the sky.
Only then did everyone take a breath and dismount to rest, but they all faced the sea of fire in the distance and were silent.
Lin Yi pulled the bridle and stroked the horse's head.
When he rushed out of the sea of fire, the horse was suppressed by Lin Yi's divine sense and forcibly galloped, and afterwards, when he saw him at first glance, the horse still couldn't help but neigh.
It seemed that this beast was frightened a lot, and Lin Yi could only comfort this companion who couldn't speak later.
The wisps of aura seeped into the horse's lungs and limbs, and after a while, the horse comfortably hugged Lin Yi with his head.
"Boy, thankfully you warned me in time. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as dying alone tonight!" Zhen Yuanzi paced to Lin Yi's side, looking at Lin Yi, who was intimate with the horse, he said with great joy.
Lin Yi grinned at him, not wanting to defend anything. Things are done on their own, and they are in the past.
"Under one thought, there are countless living people. Boy, good is great!" Zhen Yuanzi looked at the firelight in the distance and sighed faintly.
I just judged the situation and acted in response to the situation. After all, there is still a dead person. Lin Yi thought so in his heart.
Looking up at the sky, the sky was gradually getting brighter, and the fire was still burning. It was only as we approached the valley that the fire weakened. From time to time, choking smoke wafted in.
The fire will not stop for a while.
After a panic, everyone looked at each other and realized their embarrassment. One by one, the smoke and fire are unbearable. But no one made fun of each other. Last night's fire disaster made everyone's hearts palpitate.
The chariot and horses were driven to the leeward, and the people continued to rest, still showing no sign of departure. The disciples gathered together in twos and threes, drank water, and ate some dry food.
It was almost noon, and Ji Tang and the others, who had gone out, came back to restore their lives. said that in the mountains and forests dozens of miles away, three people were found to be suspicious, and they wanted to be arrested for interrogation, but the other party resisted arrest. And it was because of them that this fire started.
These three people were the ones who slipped through the net last time to block the road, and this arson is a heinous act.
As for how Ji Tang captured and killed the other party, it was detailed and not clear. Elder Meng didn't ask much, it was a matter of course that these three people were killed.
Ji Tang also explored the surrounding terrain, and around the burned mountain forest, there were wide rivers, mountain roads, and open spaces. It's not that the fires are spreading everywhere. Otherwise, this fire would not have raged for dozens of miles, but might burn hundreds or thousands of miles.
Looking at the endless woods on the east side of the valley is terrifying. This is also one of the reasons why the Celestial Dragon Sect is not in a hurry to move forward.
Meng Shan and others are also afraid that this fire will burn endlessly. If so, the three arsonists are dead, and the Celestial Dragon Sect is the sinners of this fire.
If you really want to burn a thousand miles of mountains and forests, the matter of the disciple's outing will become a scandal that will harm one party along the way. The reputation of the Tianlong faction was ruined and reviled by the world.
During these three days, the disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect kept wandering around the fire, for fear that the fire would spread further.
This fire burned until the early morning of the fourth day, and the fire field gradually weakened for dozens of miles, which made Meng Shan and others, who had been guarding and did not dare to leave, breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Xiao Shan, Mao Sheng and Wang Wu fulfilled their promise of revenge and paid for it. The place where the three people chose to set fire was a rare independent mountain forest, which made it possible for the fire to be extinguished. This may also be unbearable in the hearts of the three of them, if the fire really burns thousands of miles, their hometown in Anzhou will also suffer from the pond fish.
In other words, God has the virtue of a good life!
The camp from which the Celestial Dragons had flown had been engulfed in flames was covered in a thick layer of ash. There is still a constant stream of green smoke rising, and people can already walk in.
Monsanto sent people in to search for the bodies of the fallen disciples. Within a radius of several miles, I searched several times, and finally picked up a few broken bones of people near a pile of horse bones I found, which can be regarded as the remains of the poor man. It was put into the earth by the river valley as a mound, and a monument was erected, which was an explanation to this disciple.
After being delayed by the fire for a few days, the Celestial Dragon Sect and his party hurriedly set off.
The carriage and horses walked forward without stopping for half a day. The trees that are tearing the ground and the sky are endless, and there is still no end in sight. It's just that the terrain is a little gentle, and the hills are scattered and sparse, and the road under your feet is much easier.
As soon as the sky was dark, a small village with dozens of families appeared in front of me, living next to the forest.
Smoke rose, and a faint layer of mist wafted through the trees. A few dog barks and spread far and wide to welcome the people who came from afar.
Meng Shan and the others went to the village to find a wealthy family, took out some silver, and found a large courtyard so that they could settle down and rest.
It is said to be a large courtyard, but it is slightly more spacious than the low courtyard with the surrounding mud and earth walls, but the cart cannot rush into it. The families in the small village are wealthier, but they are just a little wealthy, and they are not as good as the real big families in the state and county.
It's just that in the days after the fire, I haven't been able to get a good wash, and everyone is dirty, but now I can have hot water to rinse it, drink some hot soup, and sleep beautifully, which is a rare pleasure when I go out!
The carriages and horses were parked in the open space beside the road. Except for the disciples who were guarded by the Tiger Jiao Hall, the rest of the people scattered, each went to find a suitable person, and was busy washing.
Zhen Yuanzi's master and apprentice, as well as several core disciples in the sect, all entered the courtyard with Meng Shan.
Lin Yi stood in the clearing, looking left and right, there was no one around. Where are you going?
The gray robe Lin was wearing was inconspicuous, but it was spotless and did not need to be freshened. But at the moment, there is no one to greet the meal, and I don't know where I want to stay at night. He scratched his head and looked at the small village in front of him.
On both sides of the road, there are more than 100 thatched huts scattered and disorderly, and there are a few brick houses that are a little higher, which are very eye-catching.
Between the courtyards of the houses, there were winding paths, and Lin Yi walked forward.
There was a "squeak" at the front of the courtyard door, and when the two walked out, it was an old woman who was supported by a woman and walked forward with her head down.
"The fairy chief said, if you want to be sincere, you will be spiritual! As soon as Gen'er is gone, it will be a few months, and our mother and mother will be at home. My daughter-in-law, if you listen to the words of the immortal, maybe you can get pregnant!"
"Mother, it's not good for me! But Dagen is not at home when he works in the town. And also...... And I don't think that immortal is a good person!"
"Shhh——! don't talk nonsense, let the immortal chief hear it, you have to blame!"
It seems that it is the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, chattering non-stop. Lin Yi looked at the backs of the two of them, and secretly thought to himself: Immortal ......, there are immortal cultivators in this small village? He shook his head, he couldn't believe it, and when he saw that the two of them were far away, he had nothing to do, so he slowly followed.
At the southern end of the village, a small courtyard near the edge of the woods was crowded with people.
On the wooden chair at the entrance of the hall, a middle-aged man with three long beards sits, a pair of triangular eyes turned to the sky, sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, and a proud expression. The people in the courtyard were all squeezing out, not daring to approach the middle-aged man, but they were all attentive, bending down to please and accompany the smiling face.
"Immortal Chief, you always show my grandson, for ten and a half months, he has always had nightmares and refuses to eat, isn't this a living sin!" An old man pulled a six or seven-year-old child and squeezed in front of him, he bowed again and again, and prayed loudly.
On the wall behind the middle-aged man, there are two pine torches, illuminating the small courtyard.
These villagers in the courtyard were in awe and did not dare to look at the dignity of the middle-aged people presumptuously. And these honest faces are reflected by torches and presented clearly.
"Come here, let the mountain people see!"
The middle-aged man's voice was dry, hoarse, and his words were high and low, revealing gloom, so that everyone in the courtyard held their breath and did not dare to make a sound.
The little boy was nudged by his grandfather, and stepped forward tremblingly, his eyes wide and his face full of horror.
The middle-aged man stretched out two fingers on the dry branch and pointed them on the child's seal, which made the child tremble and wanted to turn back to his grandfather.
The middle-aged man's fingers bent, turned into five fingers like claws, quickly covered the top of the child's head, and retracted violently, bent his fingers obliquely into the air, and whispered in his mouth: "Qiankun borrows the law, the five elements are one, and the disease-"
A ray of fire was ejected in the air, turning into a ball of fire, which exploded with a "snap" above everyone's heads.
The courtyard immediately exclaimed, exclaimed, and "buzzed".
The child was also frightened on the spot, not daring to move. He looked stupid, as if he had hysteria.
