This underground space feels a bit like in Peach Blossom Spring.
Very harmonious and peaceful.
It's just that many things are simpler.
Almost all dwellings are made of stones.
Most of the other facilities are made of wood.
There is no shortage of wood in the forest.
It seemed that no outsiders had set foot there for many years, so the residents here came out very curiously and kept looking around Chen Ning.
The clothes are simple and the person is very simple.
Everyone has a friendly smile on their face.
He eagerly asked Chen Ning about the outside world.
"Young Master, are there really the pavilions, manors, pavilions, temples, and golden palaces you mentioned outside?"
"Yes, the closest one is Jin Tiecheng, which is very lively."
Chen Ning answered with a smile.
"Young Master, what are the agate, pearl, silver and gold tickets you are talking about? Why can I exchange them for so many stone tools?"
A middle-aged man in his fifties scratched his head in confusion, somewhat confused.
When he had nothing to do when he stayed here, he concentrated on studying stone tools and created many practical tools.
But why can these painstakingly crafted stone tools be exchanged for a pearl in the outside world?
"Uncle Shi, don't ask anymore, I want to take this guest to see grandpa."
The round-faced boy stood up and said something to save Chen Ning.
Chennington felt relieved.
They have too many problems.
It's like living in seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years.
Some questions are too complex to answer.
I heard from the round-faced boy that they are from the Black Dragon Clan.
Because in ancient times, a black dragon saved their village, so they believed in the black dragon and were named after it.
At this time, an old man with white beard and hair staggered over. When he saw Chen Ning, he did not show any airs of the elders, but smiled friendly and said: "I heard it from Xiao Yuan, you are here for adventure, really
Brave young man! But it is very dangerous to get lost in this forest. If you are not in a hurry, just rest here for a few days."
Xiaoyuan is the name of the round-faced boy.
"Don't bother. There are too many of us, so I'm afraid we'll disturb everyone."
Chen Ning said politely.
The old man shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not troublesome, we also like the excitement, but if you are really in a hurry to leave, let Xiaoyuan take you out tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Long."
Chen Ning really couldn't shirk it.
The people here are so welcoming.
As for the title, according to Xiao Yuan, the clan members here are all named Long, and this Elder Long, his grandfather, is the most highly respected and is over a hundred years old.
Hearing that Chen Ning was not in a hurry to leave, the Black Dragon clan members immediately became happy.
Many people shyly walked up to Chen Ning again and started chatting about things outside.
Xiao Yuan went out to inform the one hundred disciples waiting outside the cave entrance.
Chen Ning expected them to come in quickly.
This way there will be someone to share your stress.
Rather than let yourself, an old socialite, be afraid of boasting and chatting here.
But I do feel a sense of accomplishment, no matter what I say.
There was a group of people who listened very carefully.
He also showed admiration in his eyes.
What a lovely group of people...
I heard from Mr. Long that there are now less than a thousand members of the Black Dragon Clan left, and one-third of them are women, children, and the elderly.
The rest is young and strong.
There are more than five hundred young adults.
Because of the loneliness, they could only practice cultivation. Relying on the breathing and cultivation method inherited from ancient times, coupled with the boring environment, they produced many people with extremely high talents in martial arts.
And what surprised Chen Ning the most was.
They were not arrogant, but extremely friendly and generous, wanting to teach Chen Ning the breathing skills of his own people.
Chen Ning smiled and declined.
These people are really very simple and lovely.
It's also a bit distressing.
When Xiao Yuan saw him and his disciples before, the reason why he was scared was because he was worried about being taken away.
Earlier, when they met someone who was lost in the forest, they would lead them out of the forest, but some people would directly kill the Black Dragon clan members on the spot.
Or use it as bait to lure carnivorous beasts.
Many tribesmen have never been heard from again.
But even so, Xiao Yuan still chose to believe and wanted to help Chen Ning and his party walk out of the forest.
Chen Ning suddenly felt a little guilty.
Faced with such silly kindness, he had previously suspected that he was up to no good.
However, the level of cultivation of the Black Dragon people really surprised Chen Ning for a while.
Among the young and strong of these five hundred people.
There are actually 300 people with the strength of the Spiritual Martial Realm.
The strongest among them has reached the ninth level of the Spiritual Martial Realm.
The same level as myself.
Even if he is in the outside world at the Lingwu realm, he is still a small master.
It is also the mainstay and backbone of every sect and sect.
Such a group of three hundred Lingwu realm practitioners would be an extremely powerful force if they were in Lingzhou.
You can even establish a sect directly.
The Hurricane Hunters Alliance they met three days ago, among the thousands of people in the team, there were only a dozen or so Spiritual Martial Realm experts.
Most of the others are warriors in the Human Martial Realm.
Even this is still the largest hunter alliance in the Dayan Dynasty.
It is enough to show that if this group of 300 Lingwu Realm troops were taken outside, everyone would be afraid of them.
Just like the killing formation formed by the sergeants under the Marquis of Zhenbei before.
The power is amazing.
It can kill strong men in the spiritual martial realm.
If a hundred spiritual warriors formed an formation, the power would be multiplied several times.
Even at that time, Chen Ning, who had not reached the current level and had not obtained the Star Reacher, could not resist.
Chen Ning couldn't help but asked curiously: "Since you yearn for the outside so much and know the way, why don't you leave the Forest of the Dead?"
Ask this question.
Many members of the Black Dragon clan fell silent.
A look of fear appeared on some people's faces.
"Let me tell you."
Elder Long walked over with a smile, and the tribesmen gathered around him. A group of strong men in the Lingwu Realm were like children who needed protection.
"The Forest of the Dead has existed for thousands of years..."
Elder Long showed a look of reminiscence and spoke eloquently: "The great war thousands of years ago was fought in a dark sky, with no light from the sun or the moon. Countless strong men were killed and injured, and endless killings were caused. But the blood and
Sin has not depleted this land, but has made the Forest of the Dead more lush and fertile..."
Chen Ning listened quietly to Mr. Long's story.
But when the old man said this, he paused for a moment.
Then he continued: "Eight hundred years ago, we, the Black Dragon Clan, fled here to avoid natural disasters. We accidentally provoked the souls of the strong men who died in battle, and they suffered the curse of the souls. Anyone of our Black Dragon Clan's lineage will never be able to step out.
This forest is half a step away..."
"Is there really such a thing as a dead soul?"
Chen Ning frowned and looked confused.
Mr. Long nodded sadly: "For eight hundred years, this dead soul has absorbed the vitality of my Black Dragon clan, trying to bring the dead back to life and subvert Yin and Yang..."
Looking at Mr. Long’s disappointed expression.
Chen Ning was moved for a moment.
Such kind and honest people must suffer this kind of curse.
