The harmonious atmosphere made Li Ling feel a little warm, as if he had returned to Earth.
Ahead is the north gate exit of Fengcheng. As long as you can get out of this gate, you have already half-stepped into the gate of Baiyun County. There was a lot of fatigue along the way. The most tiring one was Hei Lin's white horse. After a few days,
Traveling all night, I didn't give this old horse a chance to have a good rest.
"There is still more than a hundred miles to go before we reach Baiyun County. Unexpectedly, in just three months, we have crossed a journey of more than a thousand miles." Hei Lin unfolded the map and traced it with his finger.
, marking the areas that have been traveled.
"Is Baiyun County located in the center of major cities and surrounded by surrounding cities?" Li Ling asked.
Heilin groaned for a long time before slowly replying: "Theoretically, this should be the case, but I don't know the real situation. Unless I can reach the king-level strength in Baiyun County, I will never have the opportunity to go to the county."
Go outside and look at the scenery outside."
"Listening to what you said, I suddenly understood something." Li Ling said with a smile in his eyes.
"What happened?" Hei Lin asked strangely.
"Those who are qualified to go to the treasure land must at least have the strength of a city king. Otherwise, you can only be an out-and-out commoner in the city." Li Ling said with a smile.
"Maybe your guess is correct." Hei Lin could understand the meaning of Li Ling's words. If you want to go to the treasure land, you must be able to use your strength to enter the treasure land and compete for the treasure. The importance of strength
"it goes without saying.[
"My guesses are always accurate, just because I know better than anyone else. How do you spell the word cruelty?" Li Ling said in a daze, recalling the tragic events in the past.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Are you remembering some sad past?" Erwa was thinking about it. He could see through some of Li Ling's thoughts just now at a glance.
Li Ling liked Er Wa's understanding. He patted Er Wa on the shoulder and said, "Uncle, everything is fine. He just remembered some unbearable past events. However, I believe everything will be fine."
Hei Lin looked at Li Ling with surprise in his eyes and said, "Do you still have some unpleasant past events?"
"It's hard to look back on the past, but after these past events, I also understand a truth. Only the truly strong can protect the people around them from harm." Li Ling said seriously.
"The world is like this. No one is a saint. The law controls the body and mind, and they often fight each other for a little benefit. To protect the people around you, it really requires extremely strong strength." Hei Lin understands it deeply.
, If Hei Lin was strong enough back then, then Hei Lin's family would not be wiped out.
"Have you thought about the genocide again?" Li Ling looked at Hei Lin with comforting eyes and asked.
"Well, there are some things that, as soon as they are mentioned, I want to take revenge immediately, so that those who once destroyed my clan will all receive the punishment they deserve." Hei Lin said angrily.
"Hey, every time you mention the genocide, your eyes look scary." Li Ling looked at Hei Lin's murderous eyes and said.
"I'm sorry, I can't control my emotions." Hei Lin moved his eyes into the distance and said.
"I can still understand this." Li Ling said.
The three of them walked as they talked. They had already walked more than ten miles and gradually entered a snow mountain outside Baiyun County. The road in this snow mountain was covered with snow. Li Ling looked at the pine trees in the snow mountain and finally understood.
Why is this county called Baiyun County? Don’t these piles of snow and the spruce pines covered with white snow symbolize the most distinctive features of Baiyun County?
"I didn't expect that the scene in the woods outside Baiyun County would be so beautiful. It was far beyond what I imagined." Li Ling originally imagined that Baiyun County should be a special big city, but it was surrounded by a particularly vicious and terrifying forest.
Surrounded, but now it seems that everything is the imaginary Baiyun County. In the snow forest outside the real Baiyun County, except for some small animals, there is nothing scary or dangerous.
"Yes, the snow on Yunshan Mountain, the squirrels and the storks, is indeed a beautiful place." Hei Lin walked under a cloud pine tree, and suddenly a pile of snow broke the branches and fell down, and a piece of white snow fell on Hei Lin's head.
.
Erwa suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Sister Lin has turned into a gray-haired old lady."[
"Kid, who are you calling the gray-haired old lady?" Hei Lin was a little annoyed when a pile of snow hit his head, but when Erwa said this, he immediately exploded.
"No, I'm talking about someone else." Erwa made a face and said with a smile.
"You little devil, no wonder that big man wants to make things difficult for you, you are really annoying." Hei Lin patted the white snow off his head and tidied his messy hair.
Erwa stuck out her tongue.
"Someone is coming from the front." Li Ling looked ahead. Under the clouds and pines, two men in white came riding leopards.
The two men in white clothes were chatting happily with each other. When they saw Li Ling and the others, they immediately lowered their faces and looked at Li Ling and the others with evil eyes. They looked at them carefully, as if they were weighing what Li Ling and Hei Lin were.
strength?
Li Ling also looked at the two people carefully. When their eyes met, Li Ling was shocked by the other's eyes. Li Ling was surprised that he couldn't see through the other person's level of strength at all.
But the two men in white smiled contemptuously and passed by Li Ling and Hei Lin with contemptuous eyes. In terms of strength, these two men were indeed a bit stronger than Li Ling and Hei Lin.
After the two men in white walked away, Li Ling said, "They are such arrogant people."
"These two don't look like ordinary people living outside the three areas of Baiyun County. Looking at their strength, they can't tell the depth of each other." Hei Lin had also observed carefully just now, and she couldn't see through the true nature of the two people.
strength.
"It should have the strength of the county, but as for what level it is, I don't know." Li Ling knew that the aura exuded by these two people was obviously different from that of people who were only at the city level.
The breath is very different.
"Have you noticed that it's unusual for those two to ride two leopards?" Heilin said.
Hei Lin's words caught Li Ling's attention.
Li Ling also carefully observed the two black panthers that passed by just now, and saw something different.
"There is one difference. The footsteps of these two leopards seem to be much lighter than those of ordinary beasts. They look like they are floating." Li Ling recalled the scene just now and analyzed it bit by bit.
"Yes, that's it. I was about to say, aren't the two leopards' feet landing on the ground?" Hei Lin looked back again, but the two people had disappeared into the pine forest.
"Well, it looks like it's floating somewhere." Li Ling frowned and suddenly remembered something and said, "Look at the snow where the two leopards passed by just now."
Hei Lin was immediately surprised and quickly looked at the ground where the leopard passed just now. There were really no footprints on the snow.
At this moment, Li Ling and Hei Lin were 100% sure of one thing. The two leopards that just passed by had their feet not touching the snow.
"The floating leopard is so magical." Erwa also said with excitement.
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as magic. Those two leopards should be flying land mounts." Hei Lin was still thinking about the situation of the two leopards just now.
"A flying land mount?" Li Ling asked in surprise.
"Well, this kind of flying land mount usually has some strange elements added to the soles of its feet, which allows ordinary land mounts to temporarily fly into the sky." Hei Lin explained.
"Add some elements to the soles of the feet?" Li Ling was a little confused.
"I'm not sure about it either. I heard it's a very magical spell. As long as the element is blessed, you can fly short distances. Generally, flying thousands of kilometers is not a problem, but if you want to really fly, you still have to fly.
You have to buy a flying mount. However, ordinary flying mounts are very expensive and cannot be afforded by ordinary people. Moreover, the county clearly stipulates that only people with strength above the county king level are eligible to buy flying mounts.
Mount." Heilin said.
"You are quite clear about some of the rules in the county." Li Ling gave a thumbs up.
"Because I lived in Baiyun County before I was ten years old. The memories from that time are still very clear to this day. The things my father once taught me are still fresh in my memory." There was a hint of worry in Heilin's eyes.
Tears are flashing.
"Strange, why have I never heard you say anything about your mother and your other relatives?" Li Ling asked in confusion.
"Because, my mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me, and my father only has a daughter." Hei Lin suppressed the pain in his heart and said.
"So Sister Lin, you are a parent just like me. From now on, I will never tease my sister again." The second baby also felt the same way, and his eye circles were red, and he looked like he was about to cry.
"Okay, you two guys, why are you so sad all of a sudden? Let's think about some happy things. For example, when we went to Baiyun County, should we take a hot bath first and then eat something good?
Where is the food?" Li Ling said with a smile.
Hei Lin quickly controlled his sadness and said with a smile: "When you get to the county, just save some of your black crystals. The consumption in the county will be ten times that of the city. If you spend it like that, you won't be able to spend it."
After a few days, you will be short of money."
"It's actually ten times the price in the city. The county is indeed a big city." Li Ling sighed.
"It's not a big city, it's just a county. A county often manages more than twenty cities, what do you think?" Heilin said. (To be continued...)
