Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 11

Xu Chen was a little excited. Although he had never been to the Wild Wolf Valley, he had heard of it on the mountain. It was a place of casual cultivators trading not far from Nanyang City. Folk cultivators gathered there all year round to trade some immortal cultivating items. There are elixir, spiritual material, elixir, magic weapon, exercises and even some things with inexplicable origins.

However, that place is still dozens of miles away from Nanyang City, and it is located in a canyon, surrounded by a large number of wild wolves and beasts, and even monsters appear occasionally, so ordinary people can't get close, only folks with strong martial arts Only people from the rivers and lakes and immortal cultivators who come and go in the sky can enter.

The three of them went out of the city together, and then Yujian soared into the sky, and soon entered the mountain. After flying over two ridges in succession, it took only a moment to see a steep canyon facing each other like a gate. In the dense forest, the howling of wild wolves could be heard one after another.

Brother Ninth and Zhao Xuan were very familiar with this place, and they stepped into the valley lightly after saying hello, and Xu Chen followed behind on a flying sword.

Soon the three of them passed through the narrow and steep valley, and the front suddenly opened up a lot. They saw a waterfall hanging at the end of the canyon several miles away, and a stream winding out of the valley like white silk. In the middle of the valley, there was a cleared forest On the river beach, more than a dozen thatched huts were scattered among them, and some people seemed to be sitting on the ground and selling stalls.

Seeing another fairy coming with a sword, there was a burst of cheers in the valley.

When the three landed on the ground, two middle-aged men in Taoist robes came up to them and saluted with smiles on their faces: "It turns out that the three fellow Taoists from the Taiyuan Sect came to welcome them.

Brother Jiu smiled and nodded to greet each other, and introduced Xu Chen and the two of them. It turns out that these two are the heads of Wild Wolf Valley, one is Ouyang Ping, the owner of the second valley, and the other is Li Gui, the owner of the fourth valley. Not small, Ouyang Ping is at least fifty years old, Li Gui is also over thirty, but his cultivation is very low, Ouyang Ping is about the same as Xu Chen's, Li Gui has just started practicing Qi.

Knowing that Xu Chen was going down the mountain for the first time, Ouyang Ping and Li Gui were very enthusiastic, and bowed their hands to Xu Chen respectfully again: "This is the first time for Xu Chen to come, so I will naturally entertain you well, three fellow Taoists!"

The three said a few polite words, then followed the two valley owners to a hut not far away.

At this time, many people who were setting up stalls or doing business gathered around, but they didn't dare to approach, but hurriedly bowed their hands and greeted each other more than ten feet away.

Brother Ninth just nodded slightly, walked into the thatched hut and sat down, Li Gui summoned some servants to serve hot tea, then Ouyang Ping said with a smile: "The three fellow Taoists are here today, but what do you need to trade?"

Senior Brother Nine shook his head and pointed at Xu Chen, "That's not true. I was ordered by my master to go to the capital to celebrate the emperor's birthday. I passed by Nanyang City, but it was still early, and it was the first time for my younger brother to go down the mountain, so I came to visit. Also familiarize yourself with the face, and when the junior brother comes, please take care of the valley masters."

Ouyang Ping and Li Gui were filled with envy when they heard it, and hurriedly clapped their hands together to express that it was a matter of course. They exchanged a few simple greetings, and after drinking a cup of tea, the three of them walked out of the hut and started wandering in the valley.

There are not many people in the valley, and there are less than 30 people in total, and most of them are ordinary martial arts masters, or acquired or innate. All of them are burly and even carry weapons such as knives, guns, bows and arrows. There are only three or five, and they are basically just getting started.

There are more than a dozen stalls, most of which are sitting on the ground, with a piece of sackcloth or a piece of animal skin spread on the ground, on which are placed some mountain herbs such as wild ginseng, ganoderma, antler, sealwort, or animal bones, teeth, and beasts. There are even some strange things that are so tattered that you can't recognize their faces.

Xu Chen passed by all the way, and he could tell that almost all of them had no aura. Occasionally, one or two items had aura fluctuations, but they were also weak and undetectable.

"How's it going, are you disappointed?" Senior Brother Nine asked with a smile before finishing the circle.

Xu Chen nodded: "It is indeed a bit disappointing. I used to hear about the Wild Wolf Valley from my brothers and sisters, but I didn't expect it to look like this. There is nothing good about it!"

An old Taoist priest wearing an old tattered Taoist robe with messy hair beside him agreed, "The three are high-ranking disciples of the Taiyuan Sect. Naturally, the things in the Wild Wolf Valley cannot be seen. In fact, there are still some good things in the Wild Wolf Valley occasionally. It's just hard to come across!"

Brother Ninth curled his lips and said: "That's true, but the so-called good things are not much better!"

The old Taoist priest was a little embarrassed, so he could only smile wryly and said, "How can I be a casual cultivator compared to the fellow Taoists of Taiyuanmen? The dan and a stone plant are flowers, but this is what I have seen in my life."

Brother Ninth shook his body, his eyes lit up and said: "Sure enough, both are good things, you can meet them but you can't ask for them."

Zhao Xuan also nodded in surprise and said: "That's true, the second-rank Fengyue Nei Dan can be used to refine the second-rank Feng Ling Dan, and Shi Shenghua is the main medicine for refining the third-rank Rising Dragon Pill. It is indeed rare, and I am afraid it will be expensive !"

The old Taoist nodded his head and said: "What Fairy Zhao said is extremely true. The Fengji Neidan costs [-] spirit stones, and Shishenghua even asks for [-] spirit stones. I am a casual cultivator who usually eats dirt poorly. One or two A piece of spirit stone is hard to come by, no one can afford it, so those fellow Taoists left after staying for less than half a moment, and the old Taoist may only open his eyes once in his life."

Now Senior Brother Jiu, who had always been disdainful, stopped talking, with a dejected face.

Xu Chen was even more dejected.

Don't say thirty spirit stones, even if there are three spirit stones, the three of them can't get together right now.

In the eyes of these rogue cultivators, Taiyuan Sect is superior, but in fact it is still poor, and it is just embarrassing to say it.

The three of them lost the intention of continuing to visit the Wild Wolf Valley, and hurriedly looked through all the stalls, but didn't see anything worth seeing, so they prepared to bid farewell to the two valley owners and leave.

But just as he was speaking, suddenly a ray of light whizzed through the air from the direction of Taniguchi, and landed near the trading area in an instant, and saw an old man with gray beard and hair in a mess stumbled a few steps, and then fell headfirst to the ground.

"The owner of the valley?!"

Ouyang Ping and Li Gui were shocked, they rushed forward to help the man up.

Suddenly, everyone in Wild Wolf Valley surrounded them almost at the same time.

"Song Qingshi is so embarrassed, what happened?"

Xu Chen didn't know the person who came, so Senior Brother Jiu followed up with a mutter.

"Master Dagu, what happened? Didn't you and the third child go to visit Wulei Gate? Why are you in such a mess?" Ouyang Ping asked anxiously, supporting the old man.

The old man gasped for a few breaths with a pale face, and tremblingly said: "Hurry up and find someone to help, otherwise something will happen to the third brother and the two fellow Taoists of Wuleimen."

"Dagu Master, what happened?" Li Gui asked again nervously.

The old man waved his hands and panted, "It's too late to elaborate, Heifengling, hurry up and save people!"

The onlookers suddenly screamed violently.

Ouyang Ping was about to ask a few more questions, but the old man looked up and found Xu Chen and the three of them. Immediately, his eyes lit up and he jumped up and grabbed Brother Ninth's arm. Now, this is just right, the matter is urgent, please help me, I am very grateful, in the future, Taiyuanmen will send someone, and Evil Wolf Valley will definitely go through fire and water."

Senior Brother Jiu quickly waved his hands when he heard this, and said, "I will go to the capital to celebrate the emperor's birthday under the order of the elders of the Shimen, but I will pass by Wild Wolf Valley to make a round trip. , In addition, I don't know what happened, how dare we act rashly, Valley Master Song should hire someone else!"

The old man's face turned gray immediately, he let go of his hands and smiled wryly, "If that's the case, then don't dare to bother Fellow Daoist Lu."

Zhao Xuan seemed to be unable to bear it, but she didn't speak.

Xu Chen has no right to speak, but he is somewhat interested in Heifeng Ridge. It is said that it is the nearest evil land in Song Dynasty to the southern Xinjiang. The mountains with a radius of more than ten miles are all bare, and they are shrouded in black air all the year round, so they are called Heifengling.

Since it is a bad place, it must be dangerous. There is no grass growing there, and wild animals will avoid it far away. As for mortals, no one dares to step in, only some monks dare to enter.

In fact, it is said that there is nothing in it, except for the black wind and rocks, and you can't even see a decent piece of dirt, so it can be called a place where birds don't shit.

But what did the owner of Wild Wolf Valley and a few monks go to that place where nothing shit happened, and they seemed to be in great danger.

Although Song Qingshi, the master of the valley, is a casual cultivator, his cultivation is not too bad, at least in the middle and late stages of the Kaiyuan realm, his aura is much stronger than Xu Chen, even stronger than the thirteenth senior sister Zhao Xuan.

In addition, there are two monks from the Wuleimen, even if their cultivation bases are only at the beginning and middle stages of the Kaiyuan Realm, monsters of the second rank under the four of them can fight together. After all, monks do not completely rely on their cultivation bases to fight. Theoretically speaking, as long as monks are not too good, it is not a big problem to leapfrog to resist monsters.

It's like Xu Chen, who was only at the beginning of the Kaiyuan realm, but was able to escape under the lock of the third-order demon wolf's consciousness, completely relying on flying swords and elixirs, and had nothing to do with his own strength.

So Xu Chen couldn't help asking curiously: "Master Song, what happened to you in Heifengling?"

"Who is this?" Song Qingshi saw that Xu Chen was wearing the Taoist robe of the Taiyuan Sect, but he was young and unfamiliar.

"This is my little brother Xu Chen, it's his first time going down the mountain!" Brother Nine briefly introduced.

At this moment, Song Qingshi was in the mood of seeking medical treatment due to illness. The matter was urgent, but the people from Taiyuan Sect were in the Wild Wolf Valley, and they were almost the best help. Interested, now I am not in a hurry to find someone, but quickly explained the whole story.

It turned out that recently, the wild beasts in the vicinity suddenly became restless, and even a few monsters appeared. Many villages and towns were attacked, and many civilians and livestock died.

Song Qingshi was originally the patriarch of a relatively large family nearby, and he also had a super high level of cultivation, so he went to investigate it himself and found that the root cause was in Heifeng Ridge. A large number of wild beasts and monsters had gathered in Heifeng There were screams and fights around the ridge, the situation was very strange, and there were even monsters entering the crack, Song Qingshi planned to go in to investigate, but felt alone, so he took the three masters to visit Wuleimen and invited a few Acquainted comrades go in together.

But after entering the crack, they found that the black wind seemed to be several times stronger than before, and even their spiritual consciousness was greatly disturbed. Soon, the few people lost their direction and were separated, and Song Qingshi was also attacked by an unknown ominous creature inside. , if he hadn't escaped quickly, he would probably have died inside right now.

Therefore, after escaping from Heifeng Ridge, he didn't dare to stay at all, and flew back in one breath to find helpers.
