Zhuxian Prequel: Wilderness

Chapter 26

The ghost king's face remained unchanged, and he said: "Don't panic, the old man has already seen it away, and the only thing to worry about is the foundation of the ghost king's family passed down by the ancestors. You just listen to me. After the old man dies, you will secretly Don't mourn, and when you reach the wilderness border, you will tell everyone the news of the old man's death, and then stay there and don't move forward. First, you will pay homage for many days. After the people of other sects have passed through the wilderness, you can only say that the old man wrote it in his own hand. In my will, I intend to bury him in Mount Huqi, otherwise I will not die with peace in my eyes."

As he spoke, the Ghost King reached into his bosom, and actually took out a sealed letterhead, and handed it to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan's expression changed several times, he looked at the Ghost King in surprise and admiration, his palm trembled slightly, and he took it lightly.

"If necessary, you can show this hand letter to everyone. In short, at that time, if you have something to do, feel free to blame it on the old man. Why should a dead person be afraid? There is only one thing you need to keep in mind, you must keep it My ghost Wang Zong's foundation will continue to flourish!"

Xiao Wan's body trembled, he nodded his head heavily, then stepped back with his knees, and kowtowed to the ghost king.

The King of Ghosts breathed a sigh of relief as if he had lifted a big stone in his heart, his eyes gradually became dizzy, and he didn't know what he saw at this moment, he only heard a few blank mumbles in his mouth, but he said in a low voice: "It's a pity, it's a pity... ..."

The voice gradually decreased, and finally fell silent.

One day later, on the side of the Rainbow Valley canyon, several figures suddenly fell down and stood on the top of the hill, looking down the canyon condescendingly. It was the five members of the Qingyun Sect headed by Wan Jianyi.

Looking down from the mountain, one can vaguely see people everywhere in the originally silent valley. Judging from the clothes, they are almost all demon cultists.Everyone was in a hurry, and many people didn't even stop here, they just walked out of the valley, and it was obvious that after the defeat of these devil sect remnants, they were depressed and wished they could get away from Qingyun Mountain earlier .

The members of the Demon Cult committed countless murders up and down Qingyun Mountain, and they have long had a deep blood feud with Qingyun Sect, so when they saw those Demon Cult monsters fleeing in embarrassment below, whether it was Cang Song, Shang Zhengliang, Tian Buyi and Zeng Shuchang, their expressions were all terrified. It's not good-looking, and I have the urge to rush down and kill it.

However, Wan Jianyi, among the five, obviously thought about this very clearly, and calmly said to the four juniors: "Remember, the most important thing for our trip is to sneak into the wilderness to find out the reality of the Devil's Temple. Put aside the matter for the time being, and you must not rush into bad things, understand?"

The four agreed in unison, Wan Jianyi looked down for a while, and suddenly said: "It's strange to say, although the number of demons and monsters I saw along the way was quite large, most of them were mobs. The same is true. But I used to hear that there are so many factions in the Devil's Cult, and they should have their own restrictions, so it should be more organized than the current ones, right?"

Cang Song also looked down for a while, seemed to have thought of this question, and said: "Senior brother, I also have this doubt. It stands to reason that some small sects and small sects among the demon cultists are hard to say, but like Wandumen, Ghost King, etc. Big sects like Zong and Changshengtang should not collapse like this."

Uncle Zeng interjected: "Could it be that they were beaten to pieces by us in the battle at Qingyun Mountain, so they were defeated?"

Cang Song shook his head, frowned and said, "Probably not."

Wan Jian pondered for a moment, and said: "Cangsong's words are reasonable. Although the devil cultists are despicable, but to achieve today's situation, the leader of them will definitely not be an incompetent person. We should not underestimate them." After a pause, he Turning around, he said: "The stragglers below are nothing to worry about, don't worry about them, let's move on."

"Yes." Cang Song and the others agreed, and then the five of them flew up again with their swords and flew forward.

After crossing this canyon, the foothills of the mountain face ups and downs, and there are green forests everywhere. After about ten miles, the terrain begins to become flat, the forests gradually decrease, and a plain appears in front of you.Flying in the air at this moment, suddenly there is a feeling that the world suddenly opens up. There are thousands of miles of fertile fields, rivers and rivers, occasionally hills and forests dotted among them, and there are more than ten or twenty small villages scattered on this plain.

These villages are local people who have been living around the Qingyun Mountains for many years. They are simple and honest, admiring the immortal way, living the days of sunrise and sunset, year after year.It's just that in the past few days, the Demon Cult has invaded Qingyun Mountain on a large scale, and the monsters are rampant. Most of the villagers in the vicinity have run away. Perhaps they will not be able to return to their homes until the Demon Cultists completely retreat this time.

From a distance, many villages above the field were on fire, and the black smoke went straight up to the sky. Obviously, what happened down there was not a good thing.

The Qingyun Sect has established a sect on Qingyun Mountain for more than [-] years, and they have long regarded the surrounding people as their own people. Seeing this scene at this moment, in the eyes of these five people, their faces changed and they looked angry.

At the same time, once flying out of the mountains and onto the plain, it will be particularly eye-catching when flying in the air without the cover of the mountains.Right now, there are Demon Cult monsters all over the place, so it is obviously inappropriate to be so arrogant. If the nearby Demon Cultists are alarmed, there will be more troubles.So Wan Jianyi signaled to everyone, and after a while, he picked a place where there was no one, and they all fell on the ground.

At this moment, of course, everyone was no longer wearing Qingyun's disciples' costumes, including Cang Song, who also changed his Taoist robes into ordinary clothes. It seemed that the five of them looked like common traveling monks, not particularly conspicuous.

Deliberately avoiding several villages that were on fire, they walked along an ancient road to the northwest. They did not encounter scattered Demon Cultists along the way, but the villagers and merchants who often walked here also It was the absence of shadows, which made the surrounding wilderness look extraordinarily desolate.

As they walked, Shang Zhengliang snorted, and said with a bit of anger: "These god-killing demons have ruined many people's homes this time, they are really evil!"

Tian Buyi took a look at the village closest to himself and the others, the flames were soaring into the sky, and there seemed to be faint cries, his expression changed, and after hesitating for a moment, he said to Wan Jian: "Senior Brother Wan, what about that?" There seems to be someone still in a place?"

Wan Jian paused, stopped, and the rest of the people also stopped, turning their heads to look at the burning village. Sure enough, a moment later, there was a burst of crying mixed with a few wild laughter and scolding, together passed it on.

It's just that after all, there is a distance, what is said in that voice, but I can't really hear it.

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Wan Jianyi. Wan Jianyi was silent for a moment, then exhaled a foul breath, and said, "It's fine if no one's village is burned by these monsters, but since there are people suffering, We Qingyun disciples can't turn a blind eye. Let's go and have a look."
