Walking in the old mountains and forests of Lao Niu Mountain, Gu Ren always hoped to meet a monster who blocked the road and robbed, but unfortunately, he didn't encounter anything.

He finally came to the bank of the Huai River smoothly.

However, it is a pity that he did not find a port on the banks of the Huai River.

In Gu Ren's hand, there was a map of the vicinity of Laoniu Mountain, covering this area of the Huai River, and it was marked on the map that there was a port here.

Then, Gu Ren now knew the urine nature of the ancient map......

What the hell is this painting?

He was suddenly glad that when he first came into this world, he followed the map and didn't get lost in the wilderness.

A mountain range that stretches the entire length of the map, a river that runs long enough through the map, and then there are many port signs on both sides of the river, and there is a small town in the middle of the mountain, and there are many small villages next to the small town.

There are also many villages and towns on both sides of the river.

Unfortunately, the map was inaccurate due to the inaccessibility in ancient times, as it also takes a certain degree of accuracy to record various landmarks.

Gu Ren didn't know if there was such a thing as a scale on ancient maps, but none of the maps he used had scales, only landmarks, and a better one would have a sub-book, which was used as an explanation.

However, it's a pity that the landmarks on the map in Gu Ren's hands are not very good, and there is no sub-book to explain it.

Gu Ren took a deep breath and buried his head back in the map.

At...... Harborside ...... There is a village......

So if there is a village, it can prove that it may have had a port, but it disappeared for various reasons.........

Gu Ren turned around lightly and left the riverbank, heading in the direction drawn on the map.

The southeast, northwest, and northwest of the map can still be clearly distinguished, after all, the most important thing for a cultivator is to understand the way of heaven and earth, and the way of heaven and earth is naturally among them, so for Gu Ren, even if there are no stars in the sky, the sun and the moon, he can also divide them.

After walking in the direction for about a quarter of an hour and walking for five or six miles, Gu Ren really found a village.

However, it is a pity that the village is dilapidated.

Most of the houses are broken, the edges of the walls have collapsed, and only a few rooms are still crumbling.

Crossing the small dirt road of the village, his eyes swept over the dilapidated houses on the side of the road, and then Gu Ren looked at the bright yellow: colored sky, it seems that he may have to stay here tonight.

I don't know how this village was deserted, but these have nothing to do with Gu Ren, no, but now they are, after all, he is going to stay here for one night.

If it was caused by a monster, or by robbers and bandits, or if it was the decay of the village, it would all be related to Gu Ren because of various factors, after all, Gu Ren was going to live in it now.

"If a group of martial arts masters come at night and chase a certain martial arts master, then ...... Okay, I'll just get some sleep first. Although it has been some time, Gu Ren still remembers the routine plots of the novels he has read before, so he always fantasizes about a familiar scene.

However, it is a pity that Gu Ren rarely encounters bloody plots, of course, it is rare, not that he can't meet it, after all, how can he walk by the river without getting his shoes wet, and Gu Ren, a wandering Taoist priest who wanders the world, will always have all kinds of wonders.

After choosing a room that was still in good condition, Gu Ren suddenly felt that he might encounter something in his fantasy tonight.

It's a whim.

The sun soon sets, and the moon unceremoniously takes up the sun's position and then goes retrograde.

The bright sky was covered with a black cloth, and then the black cloth was poked open with thousands of tiny holes, and the light bloomed through the tiny holes, emitting light, bright or dark.

However, it was a pity that Gu Ren was not lucky enough to see it, because the house he occupied was a fairly complete house, with the roof intact, the four walls intact, and even the small windows were tightly blocked by wooden boards.

Although the door is unobstructed, it is just ventilated, otherwise it would not be a good experience to be in a stuffy room in such a season of spring and summer.

Gu Ren lit a pile of dry wood with a spell, and then he sat on the uneven ground.

Gu Ren is already in the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, and his demand for food is no longer as thirsty as when refining and refining qi, and he is now mostly swallowing spiritual energy and the light of the sun, moon and stars to survive and cultivate.

Simply expand the imagination in his mind, and then gather the surrounding spots of aura cultivation, this is what Gu Ren experiences every day.

Today, Gu Ren didn't take Huang Ting out to read, he just carried out a cycle of visualization and the transfer of true qi in his body.

It's a pity that Gu Ren doesn't have much inspiration tonight, and he has a lot of boredom in his heart, maybe it's on that map.

So after carrying the true qi for an hour, Gu Ren stopped practicing and took out a thread-bound book and a Zhiwei novel from his bag.

This strange novel tells the story of the East China Sea.

The story is not strange, there are some twists and turns, it is the story of the dragon girl who loves the strong guy by the sea, and I don't know which scholar wrote it, but it actually violates their own setting that the protagonist is a weak scholar.

Maybe it's because I don't want to be homogeneous, and the scholars of this era are also quite pursuing.

Just as I was seeing the excitement, there was a knock on the door.

Belch.........

"There's no door here?" said Gu Ren.

"Dao...... Dao Chief, our whole village is here to beg you, please save us, there is a monster in the Huai River, we want us to sacrifice animals to him every year, we ......" A sad voice came from outside the door.

"Don't save it, find someone else, I'm not available. Gu Ren directly refused.

This is all a routine, you can see it at a glance, the village has become a place where wild beasts gather during the day, and there will be villagers at night, what will it be if it is not a ghost?

"Dao ......"

", don't come to me again. Gu Renzheng read the wonderful moment, and he was very angry in his heart when he was disturbed like this.

“.........”

"He" left, what was the intention of "he", Gu Ren understood it at a glance, didn't he just want to lure Gu Ren to a certain trap, and then suck Gu Ren's spirit?

Or, maybe he just wants Gu Ren to release some kind of shackles for him to go to reincarnation, and this shackle may be on the so-called monster.

However, Gu Ren never does thankless work, and maybe this guy is a fool?

Gu Ren just wants to finish reading this novel quietly now.

"Is there anyone?" another majestic voice.

"........." Gu Ren will not answer this time.

Because listening to this voice is a person, not a ghost, so Gu Ren doesn't want to answer.

People are more difficult to provoke than ghosts, ghosts know how to advance and retreat, they know that Gu Ren is powerful and they don't dare to cross the thunder pool, they only dare to deceive, and they can't get out of deception, but what about people?
