Chapter Twenty-Five: The Attack on Hantan

After leaving Cangming Valley, Luo Chen and the others went all the way to the west, and traveled with the sword, because Luo Chen did not know the art of the sword, sometimes Ji Wuli took him, sometimes Wu Han took him, and in less than half a day, they came to the sky above the Western Regions City. As the name suggests, the Western Regions City is a city located in the west, although the place is not large, but this city is very prosperous, because it is a transportation artery connecting the east and the west, where many merchants gathered, it can be regarded as a mixed place.

Shatu looked down at the Western Regions City below, and said to everyone: "We have also traveled for half a day, why don't we go down and rest and then go west!"

Luo Chen nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, this is a good idea! I have long wanted to take a break!"

Wu Han chuckled lightly and said, "I said Senior Brother Luo Chen, you haven't done anything, and you still want to rest?" In fact, it's not just Luo Chen who has this idea, Wu Han is the same, it's just that she wants to make fun of Luo Chen. After a long day's journey, everyone was really tired, and looking down, the scenery of this Western Regions City was really charming.

Through the layers of mist, I saw that the entire Western Regions City was surrounded by mountains, and the mountains were filled with dense fog, and there was a narrow canyon on the east and west sides of the Western Regions City, and the two canyons were the only entrances and exits of the Western Regions City, and there were caravans shuttling between the canyons. Looking closely, the Western Regions City looked like a fierce beast lying on its stomach about to leap to the ground, unstoppable.

Luo Chen stretched out his arms, let the wind blow his hair and robe, and shouted loudly: "It turns out that the outside world is so beautiful!"

Wu Han cleared his throat and said, "What are you doing, I'm not responsible for falling to death!" Wu Han's face was obviously a little rosy, because Luo Chen's hand was a little down.

Such a scene was a little embarrassing, and Luo Chen also coughed dryly, and said, "Uh... The first time I came out, I was excited, excited!"

Everyone found a suitable place to stop, walked into the Western Regions City, walking on the crowded streets, Luo Chen and Wu Han were very surprised and excited, they grew up in Cangming Valley since they were children, and when they came to such a bustling street for the first time, they saw many things they had never seen before, and they were naturally overjoyed. Luo Chen and Wu Han sometimes ran to the shop selling jewelry, and sometimes turned to the street shop, like children.

When Ji Wuli and the others saw this, they suddenly felt a little funny. Passing through a somewhat narrow street, Luo Chen suddenly stopped, only to see him stop Wu Han while sniffing with his nose, Wu Han saw this and asked, "Why are you doing?"

As soon as Wu Han's words fell, she only heard a sound of "cooing", she looked down at Luo Chen's stomach, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are hungry!" Then there was another sound of "cooing", this time not from Luo Chen's stomach, but from Wu Han's stomach!

At this time, Ji Wuli and the three of them came to Luo Chen and Wu Han's side, and when they saw the two of them stopping, Ji Wuli left his mouth and asked, "Why don't you two leave?"

Luo Chen slowly turned his head and said, "Senior brother, don't you smell such a fragrance?" My saliva is about to flow out!" After speaking, I saw Luo Chen stretch out his tongue and lick the corners of his mouth.

Shatu on the side said with a smile: "After driving for so long, everyone must be hungry, let's find a place to fill our stomachs first!"

Luo Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "The gentleman sees the same..."

Smelling the aroma, the group came to the door of a small shop, and Luo Chen couldn't wait to rush in. Seeing this, the shopkeeper immediately ran over, and while arranging for Luo Chen and the others to sit down, he asked, "What do you want to eat?" Our shop is one of the best in this Western Regions City, it can be said that it has everything, only what you can't think of, and we can't do it!"

Luo Chen looked at the shopkeeper and said, "So powerful, then bring the signature dishes in your store! We have been on the road for a long time, and we are almost exhausted from hunger!"

The shopkeeper paused and continued: "Our store's signature dishes include fried dung maggots, stir-fried roundworms, steamed toads, and braised toads..."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Han, only to see her pat the table and say, "What kind of mess are you guys, give us something normal, we're in a hurry!"

The shopkeeper replied with a smile: "Okay, please wait a moment!"

Looking at the back of the shopkeeper leaving, Luo Chen couldn't help but shudder, and said, "Shouldn't this be a black spot, right? Dung maggots, roundworms, toads, can you eat these things? It's disgusting to think about!"

At this time, I saw Shatu smile and said: "You don't know this, in this place, what the shopkeeper just said are all good things, just like the dung maggots, they are all specially selected from the feces one by one!

Luo Chen looked at Shatu and asked, "You often eat that thing?"

Shatu paused, and replied, "Occasionally, I was a little uncomfortable when I first ate it, but then I got used to it!"

Luo Chen shook his head and said, "I really don't understand you people, the taste is too heavy!"

At this time, Ji Wuli also asked, "Shatu Protector, how far is it from the Wu Clan, when can we arrive?"

Shatu didn't hesitate, and immediately replied: "Walk through the canyon on the west side of the Western Regions City, and walk a few hundred miles to arrive, we will go on the road after eating this meal, and we should be able to arrive before dark!"

Shatu's words fell, and he saw the shopkeeper come over with a few plates of hot dishes, and said, "The dishes are here, you use them slowly! I just heard a few masters talk about the Wu clan in the west, are you going anywhere?"

Shatu nodded and replied, "Is there anything wrong with that?"

After hearing this, the shopkeeper was taken aback, and said: "A few masters, you can't go there now, I heard that in recent days, a demon has appeared in the Biguang Hantan of the Wu Clan, and he specializes in eating passers-by, and now the road to the Wu Clan has been blocked!"

Ding Ning put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked, "Is this really the case?"

The shopkeeper replied: "I don't believe you go out to inquire, now everyone in the city knows about this, I advise you not to go, you can't afford to lose your life!"

Shatu and Ding Ning glanced at each other, Biguang Hantan is the holy land of the Wu Clan, and the Eye of Biguang is also produced here, this place is very aura, if what the shopkeeper said is true, then there is only one possibility, something happened to the Wu Clan.

Shatu looked at Luo Chen and the three of them and said, "Everyone hurry up and eat, let's hurry up after eating!"

Ji Wuli didn't know where Biguang Hantan was, but he saw that Shatu and Ding Ning were a little uneasy, so he asked, "Two messengers, what happened?"

Shatu gave a general account of the matter of the Blue Light Cold Pool, and after listening to it, Ji Wuli continued thoughtfully: "I once heard the master talk about the Eye of the Blue Light, a sacred relic of the Wu Clan, could it be because of this again?"

Shatu shook his head and said, "Brother Ji doesn't know, since the Wu clan was attacked twenty years ago, the holy relic of the Eye of Blue Light has disappeared, I have asked the patriarch, and he doesn't know the whereabouts of the Eye of Blue Light, now that something has happened in Hantan, there must be a reason for it!"

Ji Wuli hesitated for a moment and said, "Without further ado, let's leave as soon as we finish eating!" In fact, the reason why Ji Wuli was so anxious was because he always remembered what the old man Qingjian said to him when he left Cangming Valley.

The sky had slowly darkened, and I saw Shatu pointing to the place in front of him that was glowing with blue light and said, "Look, ahead is the Biguang Hantan of the Holy Land of the Wu Clan, and I can feel its aura from so far away!"

Ji Wuli nodded slightly, and said, "It's really good, this blue light cold pool gathers the aura of heaven and earth, and it's a good place to cultivate, how can there be demons in such a place?"

Ding Ning also stepped forward and said, "Why do you care so much, just go and see!" So everyone went straight to the blue light cold pool.

When everyone came to the edge of the blue light cold pool, they felt a burst of aura rushing to their faces, and everyone was immediately refreshed, as if a warm current had seeped from the skin into the blood. At this moment, the blue light cold pool is very calm, there is no wave on the cold pool, and it seems that the heartbeat can be heard.

Shatu listened to the gentle sound of the wind, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, and said, "Strange, why is it so quiet, if there is really something here, the patriarch can't sit idly by!"

Ji Wuli followed Shatu's words on the side and said, "The quieter it is, the more cautious we should be!"

Luo Chen smiled and said, "I think the shopkeeper is just scaring us, you see that the scenery here is so beautiful, the lake here is as clear as the blue sky, where did the demon come from... You people are really..."

Before Luo Chen's words were finished, everyone only felt a strong wind blowing behind them, and when they looked back, they saw a group of people dressed in black and masked standing there, with a cold light on the steel knife in their hands.

Shatu looked at the man in black in front of him and shouted, "Who are you, you dare to pretend to be a ghost in my witch holy land, I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise you will be buried here today!"

The man in black didn't listen to Shatu's words, but saw that the steel knife in their hands suddenly flickered, and they rushed towards everyone, and in an instant, they were fighting with Luo Chen and the others.

However, after a fight, the strength of many black-clothed people was not inferior to Luo Chen and others, but after a fight, Ji Wuli, Shatu and Ding Ning all saw the mystery, the target of this group of black-clothed people was Luo Chen, and every move they made against Luo Chen was fatal, but fortunately, Wu Han protected him, so that he was spared.

In an instant, the three men in black went straight to Luo Chen, seeing that the steel knife was about to stab Luo Chen's chest, at this time, I saw Luo Chen point the sword up, and a heel fight avoided this deadly attack, but due to the extremely fast speed of the man in black, Luo Chen's arm was cut by the steel knife A bloody mark. Luo Chen landed firmly on the ground, and scolded loudly: "You bastards, where did I, Luo Chen, offend you, and make such a ruthless move, today Lao Tzu fought with you!"
