Chapter 188 The Old Dryad's Special Hobbies
Obviously aware of the strange gaze, Dugu Qiusheng widened his eyes and said contemptuously, "Where is the brothel?"

But no fool would believe this.

Seeing that Liu Yi and Shangguan Hongyu are not interested in this matter, Dugu Qiusheng will not explain anymore, sometimes explaining too much will only be counterproductive.

"Have you noticed that the aura in this place is more pure?" Dugu Qiusheng simply changed the subject.

Shangguan Hongyu said: "Different geographical locations, the purity of spiritual energy must also be different."

There is nothing surprising about this, on the contrary it is very normal.

After overcoming the trouble of fatigue, the road to drive the corpses was very easy and fast.

As Bian Lang expected, in less than half a month, they had already walked more than half of the way.

As long as things go this smoothly, they will arrive at Mang Mountain soon.

Along the way, they have seen what a world full of monsters is like.

It's just that the vast majority of monsters are very law-abiding and never appear in places where humans live.

They hide in the deep mountains and dense forests, devoting themselves to practice, only to one day be able to rank among the immortals.

Those evil monsters are, after all, very few.

However, the vast majority of human beings are very weak, but even if a monster comes out to do evil, it can kill many people.

This is why demon hunters are superheroes in the eyes of ordinary people.

Those upright monster catchers are completely capable of protecting the peace of the people on their own.

Before midnight, Bian Lang decided to rest early.

Although they had a good rest during the day, Shangguan Hongyu and Liu Yi still had dark circles under their eyes.

Shangguan Hongyu has dark circles under her eyes, Dugu Qiusheng can understand, after all, she has to serve Bian Lang while she is sleeping.

But Liu Yi also has it, which is unreasonable.

Dugu Qiusheng was curious and wanted to ask several times, but was also worried that he would be scolded by Liu Yi.

At noon, Bian Lang and Shangguan Hongyu came down from the canopy, and Liu Yi had already prepared lunch.

They did wake up after smelling the rice.

"You guys are very punctual." Dugu Qiusheng, who had been helping Liu Yi, teased with a smile.

Liu Yi glared at him, and said, "Hong Yu, come and eat quickly."

The four of them sat together, and as soon as they started eating, they felt someone approaching.

There are still a lot of people coming, but the speed of travel is very slow.

"These people are in poor health." Bian Lang said.

Liu Yi asked: "Is it the people around here?"

"It may also be a monster." Shangguan Hongyu said.

There are quite a few monsters whose favorite thing to do is to pretend to be humans and wander around in human territory.

But when that group of people appeared, they immediately knew that it couldn't be a monster.

It was a group of old and weak women and children who were staggering forward.

Shangguan Hongyu couldn't feel the slightest bit of evil spirit from these people.

When those people smelled the aroma of the rice, their stomachs growled, especially those children, who even drooled.

Liu Yi said: "I still have some dry food here, come and eat."

"The children are growing up, how can they eat dry food?" Bian Lang felt that the children should eat some meat.

There are dense forests everywhere, and there are many birds and beasts in the forest. If you just hit a few, you can feed this group of hungry people.

After Bian Lang finished speaking, he entered the forest, and when he came out, he was carrying a huge buck.

Those people were dumbfounded when they saw this scene, and at the same time couldn't help but come over and sit down, waiting patiently.

They can't even fill their stomachs, let alone eat meat, and many of them have even forgotten the taste of meat.

The middle-aged men in the village usually go hunting in the woods, but unfortunately, even if many people go together, they can't even bring back a single rabbit.

Bian Lang had just entered the forest and came back in less than a cup of tea, but it was incredible that he was able to hit such a fat buck.

Liu Yi and Shangguan Hongyu got busy again, quickly prepared the venison and roasted it on the fire.

Although what they did would not solve the survival problem of this group of people at all, at least it would allow them to have a good meal and a full meal.

The last thing in the world is to be a starving ghost.

"Where are you going?" Dugu Qiusheng handed the roasted meat to those people and asked with a smile.

An old man took the meat, but handed it to a little girl sitting beside him, and said in a loud voice, "We are going to a neighboring country. I heard that everyone can have enough food there."

The neighboring country the old man mentioned should be Shangguan Hongyu's empire.

But in that empire, there were also many people who couldn't get enough to eat.

Liu Yi frowned and said, "It's a long way to go, I'm afraid you..."

It's not that I want to say something to hurt them, but looking at the state of this group of people, it is absolutely impossible for them to walk tens of thousands of miles.

Bian Lang asked, "Why do you want to leave your hometown?"

It is quite normal for young people to leave their hometowns to go elsewhere.

It is outrageous for these old people and children to go to places thousands of miles away when they are hungry.

"There are monsters in the place where we live, young people are captured by monsters, life and death are uncertain, for the sake of the children, we can only leave, and want to go to a world without monsters." The old man said.

Shangguan Hongyu frowned and asked, "Did you invite the demon master?"

"Please, but the ones we have invited are all liars, not the monster's opponent at all." The old man said with a bitter face.

Just to hire demon masters, but they spent a lot of money, but in the end the money was gone, and the monsters were not eliminated.

At that time, the villagers discussed and felt that if they stayed in the village, everyone would die, so it was better to leave directly, so that the children could have a brighter future.

"Actually, we can also catch monsters, and it's free, why don't we go back and have a look?" Shangguan Hongyu laughed.

An old woman stared wide-eyed and asked, "Are you really good at catching monsters?"

"They may also be liars." Someone said.

Having been lied to so many times, they really shouldn't trust anyone anymore.

Even if you don't want money, you may want something else.

Even if they don't have anything of value on them right now, it's possible they still have something these people want.

Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.

Bian Lang waved his palm, and a huge boulder in the distance exploded violently.

Everyone stared blankly, only Bian Langlu's move was already much better than those demon catchers who had received money.

"We really didn't..." The old man thought in his heart that he should leave as soon as possible. As long as these children can have a better future, their hard work and sacrifice will be worth it.

Bian Lang asked with a smile: "Don't you want to save your children?"

Those young people captured by monsters may still be alive. As long as they find the monsters and get rid of them, they may be able to save those people.

It's just that these people were obviously terrified of being tortured by the monster, no matter what Bian Lang said, they would not believe it.

"Well, you can go forward, but as long as you tell us where your village is." Shangguan Hongyu felt that there was little hope of persuading these people to turn back.

They also made up their minds to leave the place where they lived for generations.

Maybe they have been away for a long time, and it is not worthwhile to turn back now.

The old man thought about it, and told them the approximate location of the village.

If you calculate the distance, it is only more than 500 miles away.

The road of more than 500 miles is nothing to Bianlang and others.

But this group of old and weak women and children have to travel five hundred miles, and the difficulties can be imagined.

Perhaps on the way, many people have been unable to hold on.

After separating from the group of people, Liu Yi asked: "Bian Lang, are you sure we want to detour to that small village?"

Liu Yi felt that their most important task at present was to complete Bian Lang's exorcism.

As for the monster that harmed that village, we can deal with it when we come back.

Now that the common people have abandoned their homes, it doesn't matter if they go to have a look a few days later.

But Bian Lang was very firm. Now that he knew about this kind of thing, he couldn't sit idly by.

Just taking a detour to look at it will not affect the exorcism.

Liu Yi stopped talking, anyway, they followed Bian Lang to learn more, and Bian Lang could decide what to do.

After nightfall, the edge waves go faster than usual.

After one night, they were already close to the village of that group of people.

After hiding the corpse of the four-legged chicken demon, everyone went to sleep first.

When I woke up, it was already noon the next day. After eating, I happened to go to that village to have a look.

The village was very quiet. After all the villagers left, there was not even a cock crowing or a dog barking.

"The monster that harmed the village should be in the mountain over there." Shangguan Hongyu could feel a very terrifying monster aura.

There was nothing to see in the village, so everyone decided to go into the forest to find the monster directly.

Going deep into the mountains and forests, he soon discovered the clues.

In front of a huge ancient pine, many animals were lying on the ground, motionless.

If they could not feel the vitality, everyone would have thought that these animals were already dead.

"Why do they bow down to a tree?" Liu Yi was very puzzled.

Shangguan Hongyu said: "It's just because this tree is a demon."

Those powerful monsters can often control the creatures in one world.

The power of this tree demon is very strong, and it is normal for the surrounding creatures to choose to surrender.

It's just that Shangguan Hongyu's expression at the moment is obviously a little strange.

Bian Lang saw it in his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Know?"

"I feel familiar, but I think it's unlikely." Shangguan Hongyu said.

The next moment, those animals that were lying on the ground got up one after another, came under the big tree, and began to relieve themselves.

Whether it's urine or feces, it can make the air here extremely bad.

Shangguan Hongyu looked disgusted, even though she knew that the excrement could help the big tree grow more lush, but this scene was really unbearable and extremely disgusting.

The animals dispersed quickly, and they didn't seem to see the people watching not far away.

What's even more weird is that the excrement they left under the tree disappeared in an instant, obviously absorbed by the big tree.

"Old Dryad, it really is you." Shangguan Hongyu's voice was full of helplessness.

The big tree moved suddenly, and facial features appeared on the thick trunk, whether it was the eyes, nose or mouth, they were all terrifyingly large.

"So it's you." The old tree demon made a rough voice, which sounded like thunder to everyone.

Shangguan Hongyu smiled and asked, "How did you come to such a place?"

In fact, it's nothing to come here, the key is that this old tree demon is actually harming the people in the surrounding area. It's really a three-day farewell.

"I have been to many places, but the soil and air in this place can make me feel comfortable." The old tree demon didn't even remember how many years he had been here.

After exchanging pleasantries, Shangguan Hongyu didn't hold back anymore, and asked directly, "Why do you want to harm the humans here?"

"Murting humans? You say me?" The old tree demon's voice was full of surprise.

Shangguan Hongyu asked: "Could it not be you?"

"I just took root here and received those nutrients, and I haven't dealt with humans before." The old tree demon said.

Shangguan Hongyu knew the old dryad very well, and knew that the old dryad really only had such a special hobby.

It stands to reason that after becoming the great demon queen, she doesn't need those filth to provide nutrients at all, but the old tree demon seems to be inseparable from the nourishment of the filth.

Shangguan Hongyu asked again: "Then there are other harmful monsters in this place?"

"There are quite a few little demons, but I don't know if they will harm people." The old tree demon replied.

Even if it's just a little demon, ordinary people are no match for them.

What Liu Yi and Dugu Qiusheng thought in their hearts was that they must never listen to the one-sided words of the old tree demon. He said that he would not harm people, so could it really be that he would not harm people?

If they want to know the truth, they still have to do their own investigation.

But looking at Shangguan Hongyu's appearance, it was obvious that he trusted the old tree demon.

"By the way, I don't know if the monster is evil or not, but there are a few humans, very bad." The old tree demon said.

Shangguan Hongyu frowned and asked, "Human?"

"Monster catcher." The old tree demon actually smiled.

The monster catchers he mentioned had often come to this forest before, just wanting to kill the old tree demon.

But their level is very limited, and they are not the opponents of the old dryad at all.

After that, they never came again.

But they often come and go around here, oppressing the goodness nearby, and the old tree demon knows all about it.

The old tree demon wanted to take care of it several times, but he was a monster, and rashly intervening in the conflicts between humans would cause conflicts between the human race and the demon race.

Shangguan Hongyu said: "So it's the monster hunters who harm the people here, not the monsters?"

"But those common people say they are monsters." Dugu Qiusheng reminded.

Shangguan Hongyu looked at Bian Lang, hoping that Bian Lang could come up with an idea.

It may take a long time to thoroughly investigate this matter.

If you delay here for too long, it is very likely that Bian Lang's mission of exorcising corpses will fail.

Bian Lang said with a smile: "Let's find out about the situation with those monster hunters first."

The old tree demon did know where those monster hunters were, and it was in a mountain not far from here.

There are caves and blessed places in that mountain, which are very suitable for ordinary people to practice.

Bian Lang looked around, feeling silently, but failed to detect any rotten breath.

If the people in the village were really captured by the old tree demon, the place would be more or less popular.

But it is also possible that the old dryad will have a way to hide all the aura.

It is best not to jump to conclusions without sufficient evidence.

Everyone immediately went to the mountain that the old tree demon said.
