ninety thousand miles

Chapter 572 Conversation
"Does the Feather Tribe live there?" Li Chuan asked.

"At least it's a settlement." Wen Guying raised his leg and stepped forward, saying, "Let's go. We must meet the leader of the Yu tribe today."

The group walked towards the white buildings.

The grass was also too tall, making it difficult to walk.

"Brother, sit on my back?" said the third person.

"No," Li Chuan refused, saying, "It's only a few steps away." He looked forward. There seemed to be a tree growing next to one of the low houses. The trunk was very thin and it seemed that it had been planted only a few years ago. When Li Chuan looked over, the crown of the tree suddenly split into several pieces and flew away. Li Chuan was startled, and then he realized that the ones flying out were several young feather tribes, and the tree was not a tree, but just a pole.

Li Chuan let out a breath and quickened his pace to move forward.

At this distance, he could clearly see many details in the settlement. He saw the young feather tribe member who had flown up earlier glanced in their direction, then ran into the house while saying something loudly. The wind was too strong, and Li Chuan could not hear his words clearly. Wen Guying and Jiang Mei must have heard them clearly. Then a man walked out of the house, and the men who were originally sitting outside in groups of three or four also stood up, gathered together, and looked at the four of them and the two monsters.

When reviewing old material, one should proceed at a neither too fast nor too slow pace.

Wen Guying stopped in front of the leading man from the Feather Clan. He smiled and said gently, "I am Wen Guying, a cultivator from the Four Gods Palace. I am here to see the leader of the Feather Clan. Would you mind informing me?"

The man looked at them suspiciously, and Li Chuan saw a hint of hostility in his eyes.

The man said, "The chieftain is not here. What do you want from him?"

"Then please lead the way." Wen Guying said.

"We are friends of Chief Yu." Li Chuan stepped forward and took out the feather that Yu Chen gave him.

When the man saw the feather, his expression relaxed and he said, "So you are a friend. The leader of the feather tribe is in another settlement. I will take you there."

"Thank you for your hard work." Wen Guying said.

Then the group followed the man and walked towards the snow-capped mountains.

On the way, Li Chuan approached the man and asked, "What's your name?"

The man said, "My name is Yu Yang, what's yours?"

"My name is Li Chuan, a scholar," said Li Chuan.

"Are you a mortal?" Yu Yang asked.

"That's right." Li Chuan said.

Yu Yang turned his head and looked at Li Chuan, and said, "The feather you took out was given to you by Yu Chen, right?"

"Yes." Li Chuan said. He was a little curious and asked, "How did you figure that out?"

Yu Yang said: "He is my cousin."

Li Chuan still didn't quite understand. He guessed that the Feathered Tribe had their own way of identification.

Yu Yang said: "I am a few years older than you, so you can just call me Uncle Yang."

"Uncle Yang." Li Chuan readily followed suit.

Then Yu Yang asked him: "How did you and Xiao Chen know each other?"

"It was at the funeral of an old senior. He and that old senior were good friends," said Li Chuan.

"Is it Sun Tianxi?" Yu Yang asked.

"That's him." Li Chuan said, and then asked, "Uncle Yang also recognized him?"

Yu Yang said: "I recognize him. He lived in the tribe for a period of time."

After chatting about Yu Chen and Sun Tianxi for a while, Yu Yang said casually: "You are coming to Cangwu Wilderness now, it is not the right time. The grass has just grown and the cattle and sheep are still young. It is better to come in autumn."

"Come back next autumn." Li Chuan said. "Are you here to find the legendary secret place?" Yu Yang continued to probe.

"Has anyone found it?" Li Chuan was also very curious.

"I don't know," Yu Yang shook his head. He seemed to glance at Wen Guying and Jiang Mei and said, "Many monks come here every year and mess up this place."

"We won't," Li Chuan said. After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt guilty, so he changed the subject and asked, "I heard that in winter, there will be long periods of polar daylight here. How many days did the polar daylight last last winter?"

Yu Yang had a complicated expression on his face. He said, "It's not over yet."

"What?" Li Chuan stopped in surprise.

Yu Yang said, "The snow has melted, but the night has not yet come. So..." He added with a warning in his tone, "Be careful of the shadows."

Li Chuan saw the shadows cast by the grass on his clothes and shoes. He was still a little unconvinced and asked, "Was it like this before?"

"As far as I know, if the night hasn't come after ten days, it will be the longest polar day, which has lasted for ninety-seven days so far," said Yu Yang.

Li Chuan asked: "Does this affect your life?"

"Not bad." Yu Yang said.

Yu Yang sped up, while Li Chuan fell slightly behind.

After that, none of them spoke again.

After walking for more than an hour, they arrived at another settlement of the Feather Tribe at the foot of the snowy mountain. This settlement was much larger than the previous one, with more buildings, and some noise could be heard from a distance.

After Yu Yang led them closer, a man who looked like a guard came out. Yu Yang talked to him for a few words, and the guard walked inside.

Li Chuan saw the guard walk into the largest building. After a while, Yu Wansheng came out with a smile on his face. After seeing Li Chuan and his companions, he immediately quickened his pace and went to meet them.

"Brother Li, and Master Wen..." Yu Wansheng looked at the other two people and two monsters.

"This is Taoist Priest Jiang from Tianyu Sect, this is Doctor Lao, and there are my two brothers, both disciples of Four Gods Palace, Gong Xiangdao and Pang Zhiping." Li Chuan introduced.

"It's Master Jiang, I've heard a lot about you," and then Chief Yu greeted Lao Xiaokai earnestly. After some greetings, he said, "It's windy outside, let's go inside and talk."

So they followed Chief Feather into the house and sat down in a carpeted room with a round table.

After sitting down, Wen Guying asked directly: "Chief Yu, is the current polar day related to the anomaly you mentioned earlier?"

Hearing this, Yu Yang also looked at Chief Yu.

"I don't know." Chief Yu said, "But as the day gets longer, my bad feeling gets stronger." He asked, "Did you come to Cangwu Wilderness because of this matter?"

"No." Wen Guying denied.

Chief Yu could not hide his disappointment on his face.

"But what we are going to do may be related to what you said." Wen Guying said.

"What are you going to do?" asked the leader of the Yu tribe.

"How much do you know about the great catastrophe of gods and demons 30,000 years ago?" Wen Guying asked.

"We don't know much. How come this matter is related to the gods and demons?" asked Chief Yu.

"Maybe. The great calamity between gods and demons at that time did not affect the half-demon tribe much, so you should have a complete record." Wen Guying said.

"That's not the case." Chief Yu shook his head and said, "Let alone what happened 30,000 years ago, we don't have any records of what happened more than a thousand years ago."
