After the immortal disappeared

Tao Zi whispered, "After drinking that bowl of blood soup, I became more and more hungry, so I wanted to go out for a walk. As soon as I came out, I smelled the smell of living people. It smelled so good, so I just followed."

"You're okay." Fu Shanyue took a gentle breath and grinned upward, "It's actually happened, hahaha, it's actually happened! You are no longer a demon boy."

"What is it?" He Ling Kawadai Momo asked, "Become a demon?"

Fushanyue rubbed Taozi's head: "Yes!"

He was just experimenting casually, but he didn't expect to hit it with one shot!

happy.

He Lingchuan laughed in surprise: "I thought that demons were transformed from corpses of dead people."

The world's great wonders.

"There are exceptions, such as me." Fu Shanyue scratched his chin, "It's just that I was born as a Ba. Taozi was forcibly transformed by a living person who absorbed the earthly evil yin energy and then ate the blood of the Ba."

"A living demon?"

"You can say that." Fu Shanyue stroked Tao Zi's hair, "I actually came out as a little companion. This trip is not a loss, not a loss."

"Is it because of the trip to the Thousand Stars Ruins?"

"It should be." Fu Shanyue thought about it for a while, "She is a descendant of the Yuan people, but she has absorbed too much Yin Qi from the Earthly Evil, and she can't suppress it without eating human blood. My blood is a further guide, allowing her to It’s good luck to change quickly with the help of evil spirits.”

He just gave it a try, never thinking it would actually work.

The two searched the dead body but found nothing useful, only some debris.

He Lingchuan put it away and patted the big horn of the blue sheep: "They want to steal you away?"

The blue sheep walked to the edge of the cliff and poked its head down.

He Lingchuan frowned: "Want to push you down?"

right.

Taozi reminded him again: "They want to push me down too."

"It's strange. If you fail to steal the sheep, they can just run away. Why kill people?" He Lingchuan looked at the blue sheep, "Will you just let them steal it?"

This guy dared to fight even a bear monster, and he was so agile. How could it be so easy for two humans to catch him?

The blue sheep was embarrassed to bleat a few times.

He Lingchuan couldn't understand.

Fortunately, the soul-capturing mirror in his arms temporarily acted as a translator: "It said that the other party took out licorice to lure it."

I see.

The blue sheep kept sniffing the soles of the corpse.

They usually didn't check this location. He Lingchuan went over to take a look and found that the soles of the dead sheep thief's shoes were covered with dirt, grass, and some light red powder.

"What's so special?"

The blue sheep couldn't tell, but it wanted to lick it very much.

He Lingchuan simply took off his shoes and said to Fu Shanyue, "How about you come and smell them?"

"Get lost!" Fushan became more angry, "What do you think I am?"

He Lingchuan shrugged, so he had to take an empty bottle, scrape off the soles of his shoes and collect it.

Fushan Yue became impatient and kicked the body to the bottom of the cliff: "It's almost dawn, let's go back."

…

The next day, when the guys from the Shimen Chamber of Commerce went to buy breakfast, they heard other caravans complaining that there were some accompanying monsters in the caravan that had not returned yet, causing everyone to wait for two days.

To accompany someone means to pay money and go with the caravan. Not only human travelers do this, but some monsters that are smaller or not good at moving long distances also like this.

When the burrito seller heard this, he told them that monsters had disappeared here before, also on rainy nights.

Aren’t the officials investigating?

Check, but if nothing is found after searching again and again, forget it. Besides, the number of missing monsters is also sporadic. Every year, more and more monsters die in wild fights. Who can explain clearly what happened?

He Lingchuan heard the news and said: "It seems that my sheep were not the only victims last night."

It’s just that bighorn blue sheep are luckier.

But why does the other party only capture monsters but not people?

At this time, Fu Shanyue also came over and asked the caravan to move slowly.

"What are you doing?" Master Shi Er and Li Qingge haven't responded yet, and He Lingchuan is unhappy, "Will you pay for delaying the delivery of other people's goods?"

Master Shi Er secretly praised him for his thoughtfulness and congratulated the Young Master and the Chamber of Commerce for taking this path.

The last thing Fu Shanyue wanted to get involved with now was the word "money", so he had to say: "Then let me ride your blue sheep for a few days. It is fast, so I can catch up with the team from behind."

He Lingchuan blew his whistle, and the bighorn sheep jumped over from a short distance away.

After last night's incident, He Lingchuan wanted to calm it down, so it ate alfalfa, oats, and a large bucket of pea soup in the morning. The owner also gave it some jerky as a snack, and ordered a scrub set for it at the inn. , even the beard under the chin has been carefully trimmed.

His whole body feels very refreshed now, and the unhappiness of last night has long been forgotten.

"Take this guy on an errand." He Lingchuan pointed at Fu Shanyue and said, "You have to come back to me in a few days, do you understand?"

The blue sheep nodded.

Fu Shanyue then rode on the back of the sheep. He suddenly remembered something and pointed at Tao Zi and said, "You will take care of this little brat. Remember to have a bowl of pure blood every day."

After that, he turned around and ran back, and soon disappeared.

Master Shi Er wondered: "Where is he going?"

He Lingchuan shrugged: "He went to do some personal things, don't worry about it, he will be picked up in a few days."

Li Qingge waved, and Taozi walked to her obediently and smiled sweetly at her.

"Huh?" Li Qingge bent down to look at her, "Open your mouth again and let me take a look."

Taozi opened her mouth when she heard this.

Li Qingge wondered: "Teeth growing, so fast?"

She saw with her own eyes that Taozi had a few missing teeth yesterday, but now she saw that they had all grown back.

He has small white teeth in his mouth, but the tiger teeth on the left and right are pointed, thin and long, which is very different from ordinary people.

"Where else do you feel uncomfortable?"

Taozi shook his head: "It's a bit itchy sometimes." He wanted to grind his teeth, but his bloodthirsty thoughts had been suppressed.

He Lingchuan took out the branch and looked at it in the sky.

The slime has dried, is a bit hard, brittle, and reflective, like soap bubbles.

What was there under the cliff last night?

…

A few days later, everyone arrived at the capital of Chiyan.

The journey was smooth and uneventful, without any twists and turns. In fact, this was the normal state of the Bejia trade route, but both He Lingchuan and Master Shi Er could smell a storm coming.

How could the great changes in the Chiyan monarch's family have no impact on this country?

They also walked a section of the waterway and disembarked at Baigongzhan. As a result, there were already four or five people waiting here at the ferry, staring intently at every guest who disembarked.

Several boats had finished unloading passengers, but they were still standing there craning their necks, obviously not receiving the VIPs.

He Lingchuan and others did not take it seriously and continued to move forward.

But when we arrived at the next station, it was the same situation again.

Judging by their clothing and demeanor, the people waiting for guests here are all respectable people, and they are also divided into two or three groups, so that they are in harmony with each other.

They are all waiting for someone.

They didn't wait until He Lingchuan and Li Qingge left.

This is the case even when entering the capital of Chiyan:

Those who were dignitaries themselves would send someone or wait in person at the roadside.

He Lingchuan said to Master Shi Er: "Bet five taels, they are waiting for Fu Shanyue."

Li Qingge heard it from the side and intervened: "Bet five taels, the King of Chiyan is dying."

Master Shi Er was surprised: "Why?"

Li Qingge smiled leisurely and said: "If Lord Chiyan is strong and they openly show their affection for Fu Shanyue at this time, is it possible that they are tired of living?"

He Lingchuan's heart moved: "The King of Chiyan is a powerful demon, how can you think that his life is about to end?" Li Qingge must have known something else.

"Of course he has great fighting prowess, otherwise how could he create the Chiyan Kingdom? But he is in poor health, and there are rumors in the capital about this." Li Qingge thought for a while, "I heard that Qian Qian was a man more than a hundred years ago. This man made great contributions to the Battle of Star City and the Battle of Panlong City. Otherwise, how could Lingxu City allocate part of Yuan Kingdom’s old land to him to establish a new kingdom?”

He Lingchuan's face changed color: "What? The battle of Panlong City?"

He never expected that the King of Chiyan would still be related to Panlong City.

Obviously thousands of miles apart.

But he suddenly remembered the history of Panlong City that he had read.

In the final battle of destruction, the northern demon kingdom directly dispatched a powerful demon army and demon generals at the request of Baling and Xianyou.

Could it be that the King of Chiyan was one of them?

It was a pity that Li Qingge said: "I only know so much. Of course, Panlong City was directly destroyed in that battle. The other parties involved in the war also kept secrets. Even the history books only have simple records."

He Lingchuan took a deep breath.

Being used to being in the Coiling Dragon Dreamland, he always subconsciously ignored its eventual demise.

Li Qingge smiled and said, "Are you very interested in Panlong City?"

"Of course." He Lingchuan smiled, "I am from Blackwater City and have been neighbors of Panlong Desert for more than ten years."

"Yes, your swords are all relics of Zhong Shengguang, no wonder they are extraordinary."

His sword is more than just a relic of Zhong Shengguang?

The next time he met a waiting customer, He Lingchuan simply walked over and asked face to face: "Excuse me, who are you waiting for?"

The man glanced at him: "It has nothing to do with you."

"Isn't it Fu Shanyue?" He Lingchuan muttered, "That really doesn't matter." Then he turned to leave.

The man immediately said, "Wait a minute! Do you know the eldest son?"

"I recognize him. I've been with him all the way."

The man looked unbelieving: "Then where is the eldest son?"

"I'm going back to do some personal things. I'll catch you sooner or later." He Lingchuan looked at him, "Who are you?"

"My surname is Qian, and my father is a junior Sikou in the court."

He Lingchuan smiled and said: "He should be here in three to five days. If you are patient, you might as well wait here." Regardless of whether the man believed it or not, he turned around and left.

…

Five days later, Fu Shanyue rushed back to the capital and knocked on the door of He Lingchuan's guest room.

"I brought your sheep back and put them in the stable at the back."

He Lingchuan lowered his head and found a small black stain on the corner of his clothes, which seemed to be blood:

"You went back to kill people?"

Fu Shanyue grinned, showing his white teeth: "Can't waste it."

He Lingchuan knew that with Fushan Yue's character of chasing after him fiercely, he couldn't just swallow his anger like this.

"I'll kill all the officials who cause trouble for you and me." Fu Shanyue clenched his fist and made two clicks.

"You really have enemies all over the world."

"If you don't make people jealous, you are mediocre."
