Chapter Seven, Mortal Ancient Road.

Time flies, and two years have passed in a blink of an eye.

This is an ancient bluestone road about three meters wide, with rolling mountains on both sides. It is hard to imagine that such a wide bluestone road crossing countless mountains and ridges. From a distance, you can't see the end of the road. Such a huge project seems to be impossible to complete. On the ancient bluestone road, horses dressed in blue scales are driving on it, holding heavy objects, one by one, like a long dragon.

Occasionally, a few magnificent carriages and horses passed by, and the people above seemed not curious about the handsome horse in scales, and seemed to have become accustomed to it.

"I really didn't expect that the blue-scale horse, which was rare in the mortal world, would be used here as a cart. No wonder people in the world want to cultivate immortality and achieve enlightenment."

In the team of blue-scale carriages carrying goods, a boy who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old was doing it leisurely, and there were several younger children next to him, looking about eleven or twelve years old.

The boy has a slender figure, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but his eyes are slightly slanted and long, and he looks very sharp, with a hint of evil feeling.

"I said to Brother Ye Feng, you don't know this. This mortal road is three thousand miles long. Legend has it that the immortals used great magic power to open up the mountains to connect the world of mortals and the world of gods. If there were no strange beasts on the way and monsters pulled carriages and horses, how could we ordinary people go there? I'm afraid that half of the way would be eaten by the ferocious beasts wandering nearby." The person who spoke was the boy who was also sitting on the goods, with a strong figure and strong look like a rural boy.

"Oh? I didn't expect that Zhang Khan, you know a lot. Have you been here before?" Ye Feng looked at the boy in surprise.

"What have you been here? Brother Ye Feng, you took a ride halfway, so I don't know. This kid also heard from the groom who drove the car in front. I'm telling you again now." Several young men next to him followed.

"Haha, don't look at his honest look, he is actually feeling terrified."

After being coaxed by several teenagers like this, Zhang Khan immediately scratched his head with some embarrassment.

Ye Feng did not laugh at him, but continued to ask, "By the way, you said there were ferocious beasts nearby, but why didn't a ferocious beast meet after we left for most of the day?"

"No~! Look," Zhang Khan immediately pointed to the rolling peaks in front of him: "On the tops of the two rows of mountain peaks, there are feces and urine of spiritual beasts that are higher than ferocious beasts, so the ferocious beasts in the mountain are so scared that they dare not take this road, otherwise how dare these caravans take this road openly."

"So that's the case," Ye Feng suddenly realized in his heart that his feelings were like a pissing territorial area in the animal world, and he circled this path.

"At this speed, it will take about a few days to reach the destination."

Zhang Khan rolled his eyes and smiled honestly. "That's it, I don't know. Anyway, I'll be there after two sleeps,"

"Haha, I didn't expect you, a big man, don't even know such simple arithmetics. Haven't you been sleeping for two days? In addition, we have been away for most of the day, and we probably will arrive in less than noon the day after tomorrow." Zhang Tianbao, who came out of a small mountain village with Zhang Khan, said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that you, Zhang Tianbao, who is so slick, actually knows how to calculate. Why don't you teach me this now?" Zhang Khan grinned.

"No, you will definitely not be able to learn if you are so stupid."

"What, you dare to say I'm stupid. I tell you that my memory is very good. If my family was not poor and had no money to go to a private school, I would have been able to get the top scorer at home now."

"Hmph, just blow it." Zhang Tianbao curled his lips.

Ye Feng just smiled softly as he watched the two children fight.

Ye Feng knew that the children sitting on the pile of goods were all children under twelve years old. Most of them came from the poor countryside, in order to go to the sect of immortals like him and learn from his masters. However, they all knew that once they got on the carriage, they would never go back. It would be great if they were stored by the sect of immortals. If they had no money or fare, they would have to return to their hometown, and they could only eat outside and wait for death. So the children next to Ye Feng just held their knees and kept silent because they knew in their hearts.

"Haha, isn't this situation equivalent to selling your child to the Immortal Cultivation Sect?" Ye Feng said with a wry smile in his heart.

In fact, he didn't know how tempting ordinary people was to be accepted by the Immortal Cultivation Sect. Although he knew that every time he went to seek immortality, there were as many young people who were seeking immortality, and there were very few people who came back to glorify the ancestors, but as long as there were, these people would flock to them. Of course, some poor people could not afford to raise so many children, and sold their children to some caravans to ask for immortality. There were also many cases of seeking immortality.

In short, in the eyes of these mortals, sending themselves out to seek immortality is equivalent to buying a lottery ticket. If you are lucky, you will win the jackpot.

Ye Feng has been traveling outside for two years. He has met many things that bully men and women, those who sell themselves to bury their father, those who forcibly rob money, and those who are imprisoned for wrongful grievances. He has also done many things, such as saving people, killing robbers, killing officials, and giving money to poor people. Among them, he almost died several times, but Ye Feng survived.

Two years later, Ye Feng learned that the Immortal Cultivation Sect was widely accepted by disciples. He knew that his opportunity had come. Fortunately, the Immortal Cultivation Sect only accepted children who were no more than twelve years old but not less than eleven years old. Ye Feng was exactly twelve years old this year, but because of the rapid development of spiritual energy in the past two years, it now seems that he is no different from a 14-year-old boy.

"By the way, Brother Ye Feng, you have traveled a lot outside and you must know a lot of interesting stories. It's better to tell us a few and pass the time."

"Tell a story, what do you want to hear? I know a lot of stories," Ye Feng touched his chin and said indifferently.

As soon as he heard a story, Zhang Khan was playing, Zhang Tianbao's eyes lit up.

"Of course I want to hear the stories of gods. Tell me quickly. I am most interested in the affairs of gods." Zhang Khan urged.

"I want to hear the stories of demons and monsters, can it be done?" Zhang Tianbao asked excitedly.

"One wants to listen to gods and the other wants to listen to ghosts, so let's talk to you about "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"." Ye Feng was also bored, even if he couldn't sleep, he couldn't meditate in front of so many people to practice qi, so he had to tell stories to pass the time.

The story attracted two little guys from the beginning. Due to the ups and downs of the story itself and Ye Feng's description, the Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio were forced to become a fairy tale version. The two of them cheered repeatedly. Even the children who had been silent on the side raised their heads, with curious expressions in their eyes, and listened to the story in Ye Feng's mouth very seriously.

But when Ye Feng felt that when he was talking about the wonderful place, the carriage he was sitting down suddenly became restless and restless. The originally docile blue-scale horse made a neighing sound and kept spinning in place.

"That's the case? This damn horse is so angry. Could it be that he is hungry?" Zhang Xiaobao was sitting at a higher position and was almost thrown out.

"Impossible. This horse is a alien species after all. You won't be hungry without eating or drinking for more than ten days. It is very likely that there are ferocious beasts nearby. The horse asked about the breath and was frightened." Zhang Khan roared, with a hint of panic.

Ye Feng looked at him in surprise, and suddenly felt that the seemingly thick Zhang Khan in front of him was not simple. He actually reacted so quickly at such a young age and inferred the correct situation.

After he yelled, the few people in the car suddenly became panicked. Although many people didn't know what was going on, this tense atmosphere made them feel panicked.

"Okay, don't panic, if there are ferocious beasts, it does not mean that ferocious beasts will attack us. There are urine and feces of spirit beasts on the top of the nearby mountain. The ferocious beasts dare not come." Ye Feng said loudly.

His voice seemed to be a sedative. Although their expressions were still panicked, they were obviously much better. Ye Feng said this, but through the hazy night, he could see the black beast shadows in the mountains, as if he wanted to jump out at any time.

At this time, a loud shout sounded in front of you, "Don't panic, everyone, keep the horses steady, the guards will follow me to protect both sides. These ferocious beasts are just hungry and come to fight Qiufeng. Never retreat, otherwise these ferocious beasts will probably jump over the beast-driven ground on both sides, and it will be too late to say anything at that time."

The sound was very powerful, as if it contained some true energy, which was instantly transmitted for several miles.

As a sparse sound of gold and iron collisions sounded in front of him, a team of guards riding blue-scaled horses and wearing armor soon appeared on the road, and ten people were patrolling each other for a team. Their purpose was not to kill the ferocious beasts, but to shock the ferocious beasts in the jungle.

Because once the ferocious beasts think there is no danger ahead to attack, they will definitely force themselves through the territory that people deliberately use spiritual beast feces and urine to attack the blue-scale horse.

"Huh!" Zhang Tianbao breathed a sigh of relief; "It's okay, it's okay, the army has been dispatched, and those ferocious beasts must not dare to come."

"Really? Look at these horses becoming more and more restless. It seems that the situation is not very good," Zhang Khan swallowed his saliva, his expression was very nervous. He could hear the coachman who often rushes to say that although there is no bandit street on this ancient mortal road, he is most afraid of encountering a group of ferocious beasts. Often, people and animals will not be left behind after the group of ferocious beasts. Although this situation is rare, it will still develop one or two in three to five years.
