On the ninth day after going down the mountain, Niu Xiaosheng finally arrived in Heishui County.
Looking at the outline of the city in front of him, there was a trace of uneasiness on his dusty face. During this period of time on the road, he saw too many tragedies in the world. Although many counties and cities were destroyed due to the participation of the army and sect disciples.
It stubbornly blocked the herds of beasts that surged every night, but many people still became food for the monsters.
Just as Niu Xiaosheng was about to fly over, he suddenly felt a wave coming from the sound-transmitting snail in the storage bag. He took it out and poured some water into it with a water bag.
"Apprentice, I heard that you broke through to the third level and went down the mountain. You are not in danger. If you encounter trouble, you can go to the Chen family to seek shelter."
Chen Pan's voice came from the sound-transmitting conch, with a hint of exhaustion in his tone.
"Master, I'm fine. I just returned to Heishui County and plan to meet my family. How are you doing there? Have you found any clues about the Demon Saint?"
"It's not that simple. The demon tribe has sent a large number of elites to look for the demon saint. We fought several battles along the way, with both sides winning and losing."
There was a hint of arrogance in Chen Pan's tone, and he had obviously taken advantage of it. They were going to the land of the demon clan, and they were not going to break in alone. After all, entering the demon kingdom alone was not a prestige, but a way to die.
Therefore, the elites on the human race form small teams to take a look and get in.
"By the way, Master, a few days ago, I met a demon clan, he..."
Niu Xiaosheng told what he was about to see in Wuyang County.
"Monster! That's the shame of the human race. Come on, you can't get involved in this kind of thing. After you see your family, take them back to the sect. The sect has a mountain protection formation. There won't be any danger for the time being. Don't
Go to places like the state capital and the capital."
Chen Pan warned.
Niu Xiaosheng's heart moved and he responded: "I understand, Master, you should also be careful."
"Well, that's it. I'll contact you next time."
Afterwards, the fluctuations inside the sound-transmitting snail disappeared.
Niu Xiaosheng poured out the water, put the sound-transmitting snail back into the storage bag, and then took out another sound-transmitting snail. This sound-transmitting snail was brought out by him from Yinxu, and the other one was over there in Youzhou, so that
connection.
Although he has been remembering to rush these days, he is always paying attention to the situation over there. Once any news comes, he will deal with it immediately.
Because of the blood moon, the Tiger Roaring Forest hunting team has all withdrawn to the villa. Because relying on Youzhou City, it is still safe there. However, many refugees have come recently, which has had some impact on the villa.
Pour the water into the sound-transmitting snail, and the voice of housekeeper Zhen Yun's daily report suddenly comes from inside.
Niu Xiaosheng listened and flew towards Heishui County.
When he saw the figures on the city wall, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, which showed that the place had not been captured by monsters yet, so he flew towards the inside.
"call out!"
Suddenly, a sharp arrow shot up from below.
Niu Xiaosheng stretched out his hand to grab it, and the arrow fell into his hand like a swallow returning to its nest.
On the city wall, I saw a young general wearing armor, holding a long bow half a man's height, pointing at Niu Xiaosheng and shouting: "Those above, get down here."
Niu Xiaosheng landed slowly, and the surrounding archers immediately surrounded him with their swords raised. There were archers in the distance who drew their bow strings, and an icy chill came out of his heart.
At this moment, Niu Xiaosheng sensed the dangerous aura, and he quickly said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just preparing to go home."
"Go home? Where is your home? Why don't you go through the city gate?"
The young general holding a long bow asked with vigilance.
"My home is in the city. I was eager to go home, so I didn't think too much about it. I hope you'll forgive me."
"Hmph, you're just talking nonsense. You don't look like a good person. Lock this guy up first! There's news from above that the demon clan has gathered a lot of demons recently. It must be investigated strictly."
"I'm a cow——"
Niu Xiaosheng suddenly remembered that he was still presenting himself as Yan Chixia, and he couldn't help but swallow the words in his throat again, and changed his words: "I am a disciple of the First Palace of Dao, and this is my identity jade badge."
Hearing this, the young general's expression softened a little. After all, Dao Yigong was well-known in Chu State. He reached out to take the jade token and looked through it, "Who knows if what you said is true?"
"This jade tablet also has the exclusive mark of Dao Yigong, so it can't be faked."
As he spoke, Niu Xiaosheng dropped a drop of blood on the jade tablet, and the imprint immediately emitted a faint glow, indicating that he was the owner of the jade tablet. Fortunately, the jade tablet did not have a name engraved on it, otherwise he would have been betrayed. I was so anxious just now.
When I got home, I forgot to restore my appearance.
The young general returned the jade token to Niu Xiaosheng, "Don't fly in randomly next time. If I hadn't been merciful just now, you might have died. Let's go."
Niu Xiaosheng cupped his hands, turned around and left the city wall.
"Major General, are you going to let him go like this?"
A soldier next to him came over, stared at Niu Xiaosheng's back and asked.
"Why don't you let me go? Her identity is not fake. Disciples of the Grand Sect, don't treat her like a soft persimmon."
The young general threw the longbow to the soldier and said, "I'll go back and take a rest first. You guys continue to keep an eye on me here."
Niu Xiaosheng immediately walked behind the city wall, walked along the familiar street, and soon arrived in front of his house.
"Hey, I don't know how Xiaosheng and the others are doing in Daoyigong. It's been such a long time and I don't know how to send a letter back."
Wang Cuihua's worried complaining voice came from inside.
"Didn't you send it last time? How long has it been?"
Niu Gen replied.
"It's been two months, which isn't that long. I used to write one letter a month. Are you going out?"
"Well, I plan to go to the drug store to have a look."
"What's interesting? Now the medicinal materials in the pharmacy have been confiscated by the soldiers. Although they say there will be compensation in the future, I always feel uneasy."
"You just think too much. If there were no people from the Huxi Army guarding the city, our Heishui County would have been gone."
Niu Gen opened the door and immediately saw a bearded man standing outside. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking: "Who are you looking for?"
"I, I am Niu Xiaosheng's senior brother. I was entrusted by him to take you to the Daoyigong Sect."
Niu Xiaosheng chose to hide his identity for the time being. After all, it was not safe on the road and some of his trump cards would be exposed. Therefore, Yan Chixia's identity could be used as a shield.
"Going to Daoyigong?"
Niu Gen's voice suddenly rose.
"Master, who are you talking to? What is Dao Yigong?"
Wang Cuiha heard the sound and walked out.
"That's right, the monsters are making trouble outside now, and Junior Brother Niu is worried about your safety, so he asked me to come over and take you to Daoyi Palace for safety."
"this--"
Niu Gen hesitated.
"Master, what are you thinking about? Go and pack up and pay your respects."
Wang Cuihua showed a happy expression on her face. She missed her children so much that they had been away from her for so long. When she thought of going to Daoyigong to visit them, she wished she could fly there immediately.
