In the early morning of the next day, after all the arrangements were made, Li Qing and the others prepared to leave the city of Zhigong and set off towards the target Lieshan Pass. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When everyone came to the courtyard of the Tianhuo compound, Carl said respectfully: "Boss, be careful all the way this time!"

Li Qing's expression was indifferent, and he said with a smile: "Carl, after I leave, everything of the Tianhuo Mercenary Group will be handed over to you!"

Carl nodded firmly and said, "Boss, don't worry!"

Li Qing, Andor, Lake, Yasen, Helen, Xiaomeng and Julia were about to leave, but among the others, Helen couldn't fly at all, and although Xiaomeng could fly, she was still young, and I was afraid that she couldn't fly for a long time, and although the elf princess Julia naturally drove magic and flew, her speed couldn't be compared with Li Qing and the others.

In desperation, Li Qing picked up the Tianhuo lying on the ground and said, "Hey, don't transform quickly, otherwise how will everyone go!"

Tianhuo looked at Li Qing lazily, and said secretly in his heart: Hmph! Every time I wait for me to be useful, it is really unreasonable.

Because Li Qing and Tianhuo can sense each other, of course he knows what Tianhuo thinks in his heart, and he can't help but laugh dumbly: "What's the wordy, don't hurry up!"

Tianhuo shook the white hair on his body, stood up slowly, roared angrily, his body exuded a dazzling red light, the blazing flames were wild, and the appearance of the cute dog had disappeared, and when the flames disappeared, he revealed his mighty true body.

Everyone was stunned to see the true appearance of Tianhuo, Carl and the others were even more surprised, today they finally saw Tianhuo's true body, they didn't expect to have such momentum, just the momentum that emanated, they knew that they were not Tianhuo's opponent.

And Xiaomeng, Helen, and Julia opened their mouths wide, unable to speak, how could the Tianhuo in front of them not be compared with the Tianhuo in his arms, only to see that the Tianhuo dragon head was mighty, exuding the breath of a king, the red fluff extended from between the two antlers to the tail, the red scale armor covered the whole body, the two long whiskers at the mouth fluttered in the wind, and the powerful power continued to radiate from the whole body to the surroundings.

The huge dragon head was proudly raised, as if showing his kingly demeanor.

Xiao Meng looked at Tianhuo in front of him blankly, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and he looked at Tianhuo in surprise, and shouted, "Wow, wow!" and shouted: "Tianhuo, you are so powerful, your current appearance is too powerful!"

After speaking, he slowly walked to Tianhuo's side in surprise, at this time Tianhuo had already reined in the divine fire of his whole body, and the hard scale armor of his whole body had also become soft, which was quite soft and comfortable to the touch, Xiaomeng patted Tianhuo's huge dragon head, and said to Tianhuo: "You are so good-looking, you have become bigger, you are still very good-looking, you will belong to my little dream in the future!"

When everyone heard this, they almost didn't lie down, it seems that only Xiaomeng has the courage to say this to Tianhuo, Xiaomeng grabbed Tianhuo's antlers with his hand, and climbed onto Tianhuo's back with a turnover, because the soft and dense fluff on his back was covered, and the scale armor became extremely soft, so it was very comfortable to sit on it.

And the elf Julia was even more surprised by the heavenly fire in front of her, with the elf's unique induction, she knew that the heavenly fire in front of her was so powerful that even the dragon clan, which was known as the strongest race, could not be compared, and the royal spirit exuded made the elf feel awe, that is the innate and irresistible awe of all beasts and goblins to divine beasts.

And Helen is even worse, she has never seen such a terrifying magical beast, she has only heard others say that seeing such a powerful Tianhuo today is even more frightened and overwhelmed, and it took a long time to wake up under Lake's call.

Xiaomeng beckoned to Helen and Julia: "Sister Helen, Sister Julia, come here! It's so comfortable to sit on top of the heavenly fire! Hurry up!"

Hearing Xiaomeng's greeting, Helen and the elf princess Julia approached Tianhuo with fear, and when they saw Xiaomeng's casual appearance, they reluctantly raised their courage and approached Tianhuo.

Seeing these two women so scared, Li Qing couldn't help but feel amused, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sit on it, it's okay!"

Hearing Li Qing's encouragement, the two women barely cheered up and sat down, and Tianhuo was already impatient, and secretly said in his heart: Why is the movement so slow, I want to leave next year!

After Xiaomeng, Helen, and Julia sat down, Tianhuo raised his head to the sky and roared, and flew away, and in the blink of an eye, he had already flown above the blue sky, surrounded by floating clouds, looking down on the entire city of Zhigong, and the entire huge city looked down from the air as if it was the size of a palm, and the three people who saw it were amazed in their hearts.

As soon as Li Qing and the others saw that Tianhuo had broken through the air with the three people on their backs, they jumped lightly and went away against the wind, Yasen and Lake also used the magic trick to fly away from the sky, and the cold thunder blade wings in Andor's body broke out of their backs, shook the blade wings on their backs, and rose to the sky, and the figures of several people disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After the seven people and one beast gathered in the air, they went towards the wind towards the Lieshan Pass, with white clouds, thousands of postures, strange shapes floating around everyone, within reach, bursts of cold wind came to the face, blowing on the faces of several people is also stinging.

As soon as Li Qing saw that the situation was like this, he placed a protective shield around everyone, and in this way, a gust of cold wind like a knife no longer crossed their faces, and then they felt much more comfortable.

Xiaomeng stretched out his hands, kept waving his little hands, disturbing the floating clouds around him, and had a lot of fun, the three of them sat on Tianhuo's back but it was also stable and comfortable, Helen and Julia slowly overcame their fears and appreciated everything around them.

After flying for a while, at this time, it was already thousands of miles away from the city of Zhigong, Li Qing said to everyone: "Let's go down!"

As soon as everyone heard this, they all immediately followed Li Qing and fell down from the sky, everyone saw that there was a mountain and river around, and the trees were dense and abnormal, although it was late autumn, but it seemed that it was still vibrant.

A trail winded forward, and as soon as Lake and the others landed on the ground, Lake couldn't wait to ask Li Qingdao: "Boss, why do we want to come down, if we fly in the sky, we can reach Lieshan Pass in less than a day." ”

Li Qing faced Lake's question, Li Qing said: "Practice, what is cultivation, is to cultivate yourself while walking, if you are always high and do not touch the worldly things, then how can you practice." ”

Hearing Li Qing's explanation, everyone understood the meaning of Li Qing letting himself down, and couldn't help but look at their boss Li Qing with admiration.

And after Tianhuo waited for Xiaomeng and the three of them to get off their backs, their bodies flashed red, and they changed into the cute puppy, jumped and jumped into Xiaomeng's arms, and began to hang their heads and began to sleep, and everyone who watched was amused.

Andor also put away the huge black blade wings on his back, and followed the group slowly along the winding path.

Due to the strength of everyone, they are not afraid of the long road, and the rugged road does not cause any inconvenience to everyone, but enjoys the surrounding scenery along the way.

The sky gradually darkened, and everyone realized that they seemed to be lost, and it seemed that they had to spend the night in the mountains today. Wait for the next day to find a way out of the mountain.

Ten thousand rays of light radiated from the dusk and sunset, dyeing the entire mountain and river into a golden color, which looked so charming that everyone couldn't help but be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in front of them.

It's really sunset, just dusk.

Suddenly, under the afterglow of the setting sun, everyone saw that there seemed to be a temple on the top of the mountain, and from a distance, it seemed to be very dilapidated and dilapidated.

After a while, the people rushed to the temple on the top of the hill.

I saw that the temple was not very big, the stone tablet at the door was engraved with the words of the Temple of the Goddess of Light, the stone tablet was also cracked, the weeds were overgrown all around the stone tablet, dilapidated, and the temple was covered with moss and cobwebs, and the temple door was closed, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

Lake stepped forward, patted the temple door with his hand, and cried out loudly, "Is there anyone?

Lake knocked for a while, but no one came to open the door, it seems that this temple has been deserted, no one is here, Lake turned his head and shouted to Li Qing: "Boss, no one answers, it seems that there is no one here!"

As soon as the words fell, I heard the temple door behind him "squeak!"

Lake hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see an old priest in a white sacrificial robe coming out of it, only to see him say with a cold face, "Is there something wrong with you?"

Lake hurriedly smiled politely: "Your Excellency, we are lost in the mountains, so we want to spend the night here, I don't know if it is convenient?"

The old priest still had that cold face and said, "It's inconvenient!"

Hearing the words of the old sacrifice, Lake couldn't help but pout, thinking that he couldn't refuse so simply, without hesitation at all.

Lake came back to his senses, and then pleaded politely and said: "Your Excellency, you see that it is already so late, you can let us stay for one night, we will definitely not disturb you, you can make it convenient, and hope that the priest will be merciful." ”

The old priest still shook his head, and then said, "You can follow the mountain road behind the temple to a small village by the stream next to the valley, where you can have a place to stay. ”

After speaking, he immediately closed the temple door with a "bang!"

He only confused Lake and stared blankly at the closed temple door in front of him.

Looking at the closed temple door, Lake took a long time before turning back to Li Qing and the others, and said to Li Qing: "Boss, he won't let us stay overnight, but he said that there is a small mountain village next to the stream behind the valley where we can spend the night!"

Li Qing then said: "Then we don't have to spend the night here, let's step up and go to the mountain village at the foot of the mountain to spend the night!"

Lake looked at this temple of the goddess of light strangely, and said to Li Qing: "But, that sacrifice is so strange!"

Li Qing said: "Since people don't let us live, there is only his reason, why should we force others?"

Lake scratched his head and said, "That's what I said!"

Then he shouted, "Let's go, go down the mountain village!"

took the lead and walked towards the village below the mountain, everyone followed Lake and walked down the mountain, and Li Qing, who was at the end, glanced at the temple of the goddess of light with deep meaning, and then followed everyone towards the bottom of the mountain.

After a while, everyone finally rushed to the small mountain village next to the valley before dark, and saw that this small mountain village had only seventeen or eighteen households, and it could be said that it was indeed a small enough mountain village, and the whole small mountain village was located next to the stream at the bottom of the mountain, and these families were located along the stream in turn.

At this time, these people were preparing dinner, and when they saw some strangers, they were also very enthusiastic, and the simple mountain people immediately beckoned Li Qing and others into the village chief's house, and took out the best food in their own homes to entertain Li Qing and others, which shows the enthusiasm, simplicity and hospitality of these mountain people.

When I came to the village chief's house, I saw more than a dozen men sitting in the house, sitting around the table, which was very strange, and when I was wondering, the eldest son of the village chief's family beckoned Li Qing and others to the two rooms next to it, one for men and one for each woman.

Quilts and food were already prepared in the room, and Helen and the others were tired from the journey, and after eating the food, they fell asleep after a short time.

While Li Qing and the others were meditating and cultivating in their rooms.

In the middle of the night, suddenly Li Qing and the others suddenly heard a bleak cry from the next door, and they couldn't hold back their curiosity, Li Qing, Yasen, Andor, and Lake pushed open the door to see what was going on.

And at this time, Li Qing and the others happened to touch the eldest son of the village chief who rushed over, and saw that the eldest son of the village chief was carrying a lamp, and his face was very desolate.

When the eldest son of the village chief saw Li Qing and the others come out, he couldn't help but feel stunned.

Li Qing glanced at the eldest son of the village chief and asked politely: "I don't know, what's going on here, we heard someone crying, so come out and see, what can we do to help!"

The eldest son of the village chief said with trepidation: "I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, everyone, I came to disturb you at this time, and I can't help it, you have come from afar, and I guess the journey is tiring, it is really difficult for me to speak." ”

Li Qing smiled and said, "But it's okay to say it!"

The eldest son of the village chief said: "Now I have changed from the eldest son of my family to the head of my village. ”

Li Qing said: "Then you should congratulate Your Excellency!"

The eldest son of the village chief said sadly: "Actually, this is the thing, my father died two or three hours ago, and just now those people were all neighbors in the village who came to watch for my father. ”

"I'm here to tell you that I'm going to leave with these people in a little while, to another village a few miles away. What I want to tell you is about a custom in our village, that whenever someone dies in our village, no one can be left in our village, and after the worship is done, we have to leave. ”

"In any home where the remains of the deceased are kept, something strange will happen that night. For the sake of all of you, please come with us to the neighboring village, where we also have a good place to stay. Of course, you are not ordinary people at first glance, and you may not believe in any demons and monsters at all. If you don't mind spending the night with your father's remains, this room is not elaborate and comfortable, but it can rest in peace. But I want to make it clear that no one wants to stay tonight except for you. ”

After Li Qing and the others heard this, they couldn't help but feel curious in their hearts, they couldn't imagine that there were such strange rules in the small village here, so they said: "We understand Your Excellency's hospitality, today, we came to your village, thank you for the hospitality, and we are very sorry not to go, tonight, we will stay, and also do our best, let us guard the mourning hall for Your Excellency!"

After hearing Li Qing's words, the eldest son of the village chief was immediately grateful, thanked him repeatedly, and said: "I really don't want to let you stay here alone, but we have to say goodbye, because the village stipulates that no one in the village is allowed to stay here in the middle of the night, so we must leave immediately, and after leaving, please bother more." ”

"If there is any strange change, you must not pay attention to it, and we will ask you again tomorrow morning. ”

After finishing speaking, he said goodbye to Li Qing and the others, and left the mountain village with the people in the village, and there were only seven people left in the entire mountain village.

At this time, Helen, Little Dream, and the elven princess Julia were also woken up by the noise of the villagers leaving, and walked out of the room with hazy eyes.

Xiaomeng walked up to Li Qing in a daze, shrunk into Li Qing's arms, and asked, "Brother Xing, what happened! Why is it so noisy?"

And Helen and Julia also looked at Li Qing and the others curiously, waiting for Li Qing's answer.

Li Qing smiled kindly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the village chief here has just passed away, and according to their customs, the entire village has gone to the nearby village to spend the night." ”
