Xie Lingyan didn't want to pay attention to the young master who took the wrong medicine. She continued on her way, rushing to another destination.
Taichu Mountain, Gufang Village, she sat on the back of the red flame phoenix and looked down.
The vast mountains and rivers are filled with majestic mountains and dangerous peaks as far as the eye can see.
The mountains in the Southern Territory are continuous, each one higher than the last, and each area is weirder than the last.
The Cangyu Continent is known as the wilderness in the north, the sea in the east, the glaciers in the west, and the forests in the south.
Tianyuan Kingdom has always been the center of power politics.
The origin and development of Cangyu Continent first began in Tianyuan, and then spread to the entire region.
The history here goes back to ancient times.
She had read several books, all of which were historical classics given by Xiao Jingye. Of course, she didn't know the whole story, only a rough understanding.
At this moment, she stopped on a mountain peak. She stood on the cliff and looked down. The smoke from the kitchen was curling up in the distance, and the world was filled with fireworks.
Lei Chengyang stood next to her and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"No need to tell you."
"Xie Lingyan, you..."
"Lei Chengyang, I have told you many times that I did not kill your father. If you still have a brain, go find the real enemy instead of pestering me."
"Humph, did you kill my father? I don't believe it just because of your eloquent tongue and eloquent rhetoric."
"..." Come on, there's no way to communicate with a madman.
She walked away, wanting to find a small village to spend the night.
When I walked into the village, I expected that it would be very lively and full of people.
However.
The village was deserted and deserted. It seemed like a dead village.
The Red Flame Phoenix walked with its master. It was huge and kicked up a cloud of dust with every step it took. From time to time it turned its slender head and looked left and right, as if asking, "Master, what are we doing here? Here
No one."
Xie Lingyan thought, I feel strange too? How could there be such a strange place? When I looked here from the mountain, I could clearly see the smoke rising from the kitchen. Why didn't I see a single figure when I walked in?
Lei Chengyang followed behind. He looked left and right for a long time and said, "You're not going to have bad luck again, are you?"
Xie Lingyan: "..." She wanted people to shut up, but her heart was restless, and she always felt that something bad was waiting for her to reveal her true identity.
Don't be some strong and invincible person waiting at the front.
The two Xizhou Mahayana Taoist monks she met earlier almost killed her, but those people wouldn't have come all the way here just to kill her little minions.
Xie Lingyan continued walking inside with Red Flame Fire Phoenix.
This village is not small, with about a hundred households. The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is distributed from east to west along the river.
She tried knocking on the doors of several houses she passed. She thought those people were hiding at home, but after asking for a long time, no one came to open the door.
"Is it possible that everyone was killed?" Xie Lingyan pushed open the door of a house and walked in to take a look.
Lei Chengyang also opened a door and went in specially to take a look.
The door of this house was closed, but there was no blood sprinkled or corpses lying behind the door.
To say that the village was massacred, there should be blood stains on the ground, but there was no blood everywhere.
"They must have left." Xie Lingyan guessed. She quietly nodded her fingers and asked, "White Hair, how are you?"
The white-haired god finally spoke and said, "I'm fine."
"Are you hurt?"
"Um."
"Is it important?"
"It's almost done."
"Then you rest first. This village is weird. I'll go and see what's going on."
The white-haired god said, "Don't look at it, he's probably running away."
"Why, with mountains and rivers here and beautiful scenery, who would be willing to leave their former home and travel far away?"
"Indeed, few people are willing to leave the main house and wander."
"Then what's going on? Is it a flood or an earthquake?"
"No, it wasn't a natural disaster that forced them to leave. It was actually a man-made disaster."
"You mean..."
"That's right, as you think, someone is causing trouble. People in the village dare not stay. Most of them have left. Those who are still here have their doors locked and don't want to see outsiders."
"Okay, I'll go take a look further." She quickened her pace and walked inside.
Lei Chengyang came out of a house. He couldn't find anyone to die, so he shouted, "Xie Lingyan, Xie Lingyan, where are you? Did you run away?"
His voice is so loud.
What is this dog man yelling for? Is he sick?
Xie Lingyan was too lazy to answer him and continued walking until she finally saw a figure.
The village of about a hundred households covers a large area. As you go inside, it becomes more and more gloomy and desolate. But after all, there are people there, but the doors are closed and no visitors are seen.
The white-haired god said, "There is an archway in the distance, do you see it?"
Xie Lingyan looked up and saw the words "Gufang Village Temple" written crookedly in old and mottled characters.
The archway is covered with moss. When the villagers were still here, there must have been a lot of incense here, but now, the buildings are empty and things have changed.
"White hair, are there other villages near here?"
"There are two or three of them, separated by several mountains, and they are not allowed to interact with each other. In addition, there is a big river nearby called Laoyue River. Every July 7th, the female relatives of Siyue Kingdom will go to the river to bathe until late. It is said that
Whoever can catch the moon from the water will have a good marriage."
Xie Lingyan was speechless. What kind of ancient legend is this? The moon in the water can be fished out as long as it is said to be fished out. If it is really possible, the moon will not grow in the sky, but directly in the water.
"Is there a big city near Laoyue River?"
"Yes, it is nearby the territory of Siyue Kingdom."
"Siyue Kingdom, what kind of country is that?"
"It is a small country, and it is a vassal territory of the Southern Territory State. The Southern Territory Administrator does not care about the long term, so it is allowed to have its own jurisdiction."
"That's it."
Xie Lingyan walked in with her sword on her back and met a few people along the way, including some monks. They were either casual cultivators or traveling abroad.
"It's strange that there are monks here. If something really outrageous happened here, why didn't they take action? Don't those people claim to be the embodiment of justice? Why are they chasing me so hard but not caring about the people here?
It’s true that there is no way to restrain a chicken.”
The white-haired god asked, "Do you think this is the world of martial arts?"
Xie refused to accept the sophistry, "Even if it's not the world of martial arts, it wouldn't be so cold and impersonal, right?"
"What if the people here are afraid of monks?"
"Why?"
"Because the people here once believed that the flying monks were gods and thought they were powerful and omnipotent. However, their full trust was met with cynicism and even trampling by some monks. In the end, the people did not believe these.
People."
"how do you know?"
"You can tell by watching them panic and hide."
When the people in this village saw the monks, they felt like they saw a ghost. They ran very fast.
Xie Lingyan was walking and saw a child crying in the distance. She pushed the old man on the ground and asked her to get up.
