Strange mountains and rivers

Chapter 22 Volume A: Polygonum flowers are abundant and the road is far away

"Jiguanyan is less than fifty miles away from Fengtong Ridge. How can there be a bald-tailed wolf?!"

Chen Huaisheng couldn't help it anymore, "Brother Zhou said it's just a ghost-beaked tit. Why did the bald-tailed wolf come to Jiguanyan?"

First-order monsters have never appeared in the two places mentioned, at least in Chen Huaisheng's impression.

Fengtongling, like Luohamburger and Yuanbaozhai, are some of the major villages in Guzhen. These villages are still quite far away from the so-called forbidden areas, and there are very few activities of unqualified monsters in this area.

Hunters who want to hunt low-grade monsters need to go thirty miles deep. If they want to hunt first-grade monsters, they have to go at least eighty miles deep into the mountains.

Ghost-beaked tits are generally not encountered by humans. They are found on the treetops in mountains and forests. Unless you intend to hunt, there are not many opportunities to provoke ghost-beaked tits.

Of course, the beak of the ghost-beaked tit is an excellent material for the holder of a talisman pen, as it contains spiritual power and flows smoothly. The pens used by talisman masters to draw talismans are basically made of ghost beaks, so the demand is also very high.

Chen Huaisheng estimated that Zhou Chunping's cousin was also obsessed with money, so he dared to take advantage of the ghost-beaked tit.

But the bald-tailed wolf is different. It is a purely ferocious beast that especially likes to eat people.

If it appeared in Jiguan Rock, it would be a bit dangerous for him to go to Fengtong Ridge to inquire about the situation.

In places such as Banjie Cliff and Jiguan Rock, it is almost impossible for first-level monsters to appear. At most, there are some low-grade monsters, such as exquisite rabbits and red-horned sheep.

If Chen Huaisheng had not encountered this opportunity, there is a high possibility that he would have formed a group with some innate Tao species similar to his own to hunt such unqualified monsters and spiritual beasts.

Things like exquisite rabbits have always been the favorite of many female monks. If you can catch one and find a suitable buyer, it is very possible to sell it for twenty or thirty spirit stones.

Now there are even first-order monsters appearing around Fengtong Ridge and Luohan Burger. How is this possible?

This has never happened in thousands of years, right? How dare ordinary people live in these places?

Seeing that Chen Huaisheng was so frightened, Zhou Chunping also sighed and smiled bitterly: "I heard that someone from the Lingyun Sect has come to the county. It is estimated that the government and the casual cultivators in the county will go to complain, but in the remote mountains here, people may not care. Whether you want to come or not is another matter.”

"Brother Zhou Zhou, are there many such monsters appearing here now?" Chen Huaisheng calmed down and couldn't help but ask again.

"You can say more or less, it depends on how you compare and where you are." Zhou Chunping glanced at Chen Huaisheng, "Compared with previous years, these situations have increased at least ten times, and have never happened before. All the first-level monsters that have passed by have come out,... In addition, from the west of Guzhenyi, there are a lot of them, and they appear frequently. To the east of Guzhenyi, there are relatively few. For example, there are still not many at Zhugou Pass. I have encountered..."

After talking for a while, Chen Huaisheng learned some changes in his hometown from Zhou Chunping, but he also quietly conveyed his situation to Zhou Chunping.

Zhou Chunping is actually Luo Hamburger's spy here. Similarly, the drug store and mining store next to it is also an spy. However, before leaving his hometown a few years ago, Chen Huaisheng had never been in contact with it, so he didn't understand it.

But I learned from Zhou Chunping that this medicine shop and mining shop was opened by the Cao family, the first surname of Caoji Town. The two families lived next to each other, and there was a post station representing the government, so it looked like a decent place.

Had dinner at Zhou Chunping's place.

Taoist people eat differently from ordinary people. In rural areas like this, there are basically only a few things, either steamed rice with spiritual rice, steamed cakes and cooked cakes made from corn and wheat flour, or Jiahe porridge.

As for other dishes, forget about it.

The food of ordinary people is rich, but if you don't want the turbidity in your body to increase and affect yourself due to your diet, it's best not to eat it.

There are also a small amount of materials such as monster meat jerky in the wine shop, but the price is too expensive, and poor people like Chen Huaisheng cannot afford it.

Chen Huaisheng has become accustomed to this kind of life.

After eating, we went to the medicine shop and mining shop next to it.

He didn't even have a name, and the shop was small, but the owner was very energetic and was particularly enthusiastic about asking and chatting with customers when he saw them.

There is no doubt that this is the same role as Zhou Chunping. As an informant, selling and collecting materials is probably secondary. Understanding the situation of past customers and inquiring about outside news is the main business.

It was quite simple inside, with a few ore samples randomly placed on one side of the shelf, and a few samples of medicinal materials on the other side of the shelf, both for sale and purchase.

Chen Huaisheng made a brief inquiry and found that alchemy was out of stock, but mithril was in stock. In addition, the specialties in the mountains here - magic golden grass, kilo root, wolf skin and wolf bones, and tit ghost beaks were purchased in large quantities.

"Both the red-tailed wolf and the black-tailed wolf appeared around Luohanburger and Heimuya. I heard that someone discovered at least five or six black-tailed wolves in Sandaoxia, in groups..."

"Damn, in the past few years, there have been a lot of people coming from outside. They are all mysterious. They all say they are here to hunt, but they are very secretive about what they hunted. They refuse to tell or sell. God knows. What are they doing..."

The boss's surname was naturally Cao, but his given name was unclear. He called himself Cao Er, so Chen Huaisheng called him Cao Ershu. He was more than ten years older than Zhou Chunping, already over sixty.

After chatting at the drug store next door for half an hour, Chen Huaisheng returned to the inn to rest.

The situation is similar. In the past five years, the weather has been bad. The Yin Qi of the Youhe River along this line has become increasingly strong, and the number of monsters coming out of the mountains has increased day by day.

It turns out that the gradeless monsters that were only seen occasionally can be seen from time to time, and the extremely rare first-order monsters have appeared around the common people's cottage villages, which has also caused panic among many people.

Some people have already moved to the county seat, while others have begun to contact each other to find countermeasures.

Staring at the Youhe River that meandered through Zhugou Pass, Chen Huaisheng felt for a moment that the coldness seemed to seep into his heart along his gaze.

No matter how much of the information revealed by Zhou Chunping or Cao Er was true, based on the information he had, Chen Huaisheng was still sure that his hometown had changed a lot in the past few years since he left.

The weather, weather, monsters, and frequent murders all made him feel that a storm was about to hit his hometown.

The more times like this, the more important it becomes.

With his current strength, it might not be a big deal if he meets a ghost-beaked tit, but if it's a group, the result would be similar to that of Zhou Chunping's cousin.

As for the wolf, let alone the bald-tailed wolf, even the ordinary red-tailed wolf or black-tailed wolf can easily kill itself.

Therefore, if you enlighten and enter the Tao as soon as possible, the chance of saving your life will increase.

The moonlight is like a note, falling in front of the window.

A touch of white air rose up between Chen Huaisheng's breath, and a faint coolness flowed from the tail gate, through the Shen Hall, through the Xuan Shu, and straight up the Jade Pillow to Baihui.

The dim light reappears, falling endlessly.

At this time, Chen Huaisheng could feel that a small and fuzzy halo of chakras in the qi sea of ​​Dantian seemed to be beginning to move.

Looking inside, we can see that the trace of spiritual power boiling from the sea of ​​​​Qi in Dantian begins to go along the Shenque to Shanzhong and directly into Baihui.

In Baihui, it merges with the inhaled moonlight energy, leading it down the original path and re-entering the sea of ​​energy in Dantian.

At this moment, the halo of the chakra suddenly brightened, and the halo expanded, swallowing up the Yuehua Qi flowing down from Baihui.

The halo swallowed up the energy of the moonlight, and the chakra immediately expanded a lot, forming a Tai Chi yin-yang fish again, which began to spin and feed back the integrated moonlight energy.

Walking down the Magpie Bridge along the seabed, back to Weulu, all the way up, over and over again, until Baihui, and then down to Qihai.

After these three consecutive weeks of Qi movement, the Qi of the Moonlight gradually and completely melted into spiritual power.

Chen Huaisheng felt that the small chakra halo in Qi Hai Dantian seemed to be larger and more vigorous than before swallowing the Yuehua Qi.

A wave of fierce and violent restlessness arose from the bottom of his heart, which made Chen Huaisheng have the urge to look up to the sky and roar. It came so suddenly that he felt a little baffled.

Why do you become a little unspeakably restless even after practicing a lot of breathing exercises every day?

He couldn't understand it for a moment, but he knew that his practice had made great progress compared to a few days ago. It just depends on when he can reach that "realm" and realize it.

Unable to fall asleep due to the restlessness, he simply got up again, took out the mahogany sword, and practiced the first form of the Three Talents Sword Art - Immortal Guidance according to the Three Talents Sword Art.

The sword posture is very simple. Move the sword with your fingers flat. When the sword intention comes, the sword energy comes out. With one thrust of the sword, the sword intention can activate the spiritual power and transform it into sword energy, sweeping away the enemies in front of you.

It's a pity that before entering the Tao and practicing Qi, these sword postures have little meaning. If the spiritual power cannot be mobilized to turn into sword energy, these sword postures are like dancing with straw to fight a tiger, hitting the stone with an egg.

Early the next morning, Chen Huaisheng got up and took advantage of the rising sun. He walked around again and felt a different feeling again.

Last night's halo chakra remained dormant, while another slightly larger halo chakra slowly rose up, from Qihai to Shenquetan, up to Baihui, and down the back along the jade pillow, pottery path, It hangs from the pivot to the end of the body, and then flows through the perineum to the Dantian Qi sea, driving the swallowed nine-day rising sun energy to flow into the Dantian and merge with the Qi chakra.

After adjusting his breath, Chen Huaisheng didn't stay any longer. Today's journey was still far. If he didn't plan to use the Jianbu Talisman, it would probably be midnight before he reached Yuanbaozhai.

As a last resort, Chen Huaisheng could only activate the walking talisman. Although he was a little heartbroken, he thought it was better than arriving home in the middle of the night and tormenting people.
