Chapter 255: Discussion of Demons at the Posthouse (Part 1)

As the strongest priest among the nine tribes of the Li people, the old man naturally had the confidence to say such arrogant words.

What the demons and evil spirits fear most about Hanyu Mountain is not only the Wolf God who cultivates in the mountain and does not get involved in the rivers and lakes.

For the demons and evil spirits, although the Wolf God is scary, he cultivates in the mountain and does not get involved in the rivers and lakes, so as long as they do not go to Hanyu Mountain to provoke him, it will be fine.

However, the Xifeng tribe in Hanyu Mountain often sends young and strong tribesmen to patrol, hunt and kill passing demons and evil spirits, and kills all the demons and evil spirits within a thousand miles of Hanyu Mountain alive, so that no demons dare to stop and approach.

It has become a forbidden area for demons.

Even the four old guests and three demon generals of Qingming Cave are only resentful about this, but they dare not really enter the thousand-mile radius to provoke.

Not to mention that the nine tribes of the Li people are of the same blood, even if it is just the Xifeng tribe, it is enough to be feared.

And the consequences of angering the nine tribes of the Li people are something that no force or individual in the world can afford.

For Qingming Cave, the biggest luck now is that the Xifeng tribe of the Li people who stayed in the territory of Huotong Kingdom did not join forces with the wizard.

This group of Li people who are detached from the world have never intervened in the disputes of the cultivation world. This is the ancestral precept.

Sending disciples to hunt the evil spirits near the camp is already the limit. If the evil spirits do not provoke them, they can't really fight against Qingming Cave.

After all, they have more important missions to complete...

Therefore, the Li tribe of Hanyu Mountain is not a big enemy that the evil spirits of Qingming Cave need to be wary of.

It's just that as a bamboo raft entered the water, the white wolf god entered the world. After this scene was seen by some passers-by or birds and beasts on both sides of the long river, the news spread quickly.

The wolf god of Hanyu Mountain entered the world...

This news is like a heavy boulder smashed into the deep sea, setting off a storm.

The fire was raging in the country, and the demons were in a panic. The demons near the banks of the not-so-wide long river quickly evacuated and fled, and several plots that were supposed to be carried out were immediately stopped and dared not continue.

The demons, who had been fighting fiercely, temporarily retracted their tentacles and retreated to the wilderness, giving this world a few days of peace.

But Lu Heng didn't seem to care about all this.

A bamboo raft went down the river. Lu Heng on the raft had a leisurely expression, telling stories to Xiao Ai Gu Yan, letting the raft go downstream without using magic power to speed up.

It took them five days to get out of the thousand-mile range around Hanyu Mountain.

There were quite a few temporary houses on both sides of the river.

Although the river was turbulent and the drop in the mountains was huge, it was impossible to sail. But there were fish in the water and birds and beasts in the mountains.

In the past, these wildernesses where ferocious beasts might have lurked were terrifying and creepy, but in the Huotong Country where demons are rampant now, although there are beasts roaming within a thousand miles of Hanyu Mountain, there are no demons.

Compared with those man-eating demons, people are more willing to face beasts.

At least as long as they live in a village, ordinary beasts cannot break into the village and kill people.

Facing those ferocious and terrifying beasts, people can still struggle and resist, or even work together to force them back. Even if there are casualties, it is only a single digit.

But if demons enter the village, the whole village will die, and no one can escape.

So in recent years, the wild people like Shuisheng Village, who are not within the scope of the boundary monument and are not protected by witches, have been informed by the wizards to migrate to the safe area of ​​1,000 miles around Hanyu Mountain to avoid the scourge of demons.

As for those villagers and mortals who are within the city and protected by witches, they have long been moved to live temporarily near the city and no longer live in the mountains.

The boundary markers set at the border of the city used to deter demons and evil spirits, so that they dared not enter the boundary markers to commit crimes. But now it is no longer possible.

Not to mention the boundary markers, even the cities guarded by witches and wizards have demons and evil spirits who dare to attack in groups and run into the city in broad daylight to eat people.

Under all kinds of chaos, the most hurt are ordinary people without magic power.

Going east, the newly built villages seen on both sides of the river were migrated under such background.

On the sixth day, Lu Heng and his group left the bamboo raft and landed on the shore.

Although this long river goes east, it does not enter the Pangjiang River system. At this place, it is time to abandon the bamboo raft and walk.

However, everyone is a cultivator, even the youngest Shen Wuyou is a demon cultivator, and he can run in the wilderness as if walking on flat ground, and he is not afraid of the hard work of the journey.

In fact, the little boy was already anxious on the bamboo raft.

He originally thought that after Lu Heng took him down the mountain, he would directly fly east on the cloud, arrive at Luwu Mountain in a few days, and then go to Qingming Cave.

However, after going down the mountain, everyone stayed on the small bamboo raft, slowly moving eastward, so slow that it was frightening.

Now six days have passed, but they have only left Hanyu Mountain for about a thousand miles.

Especially after abandoning the bamboo raft and going ashore, Lu Heng's leisurely pace like a picnic was slower than when he went down the river, which made the little boy completely unable to sit still.

At night, when the campfire was lit in the abandoned posthouse for several years and Xiao Ai started cooking, the little boy who had been holding back all the way finally couldn't help but walked to Lu Heng.

"Daddy..." The little boy said, "If we walk like this, when can we reach Luwu Mountain..."

The little boy's worried questioning made Lu Heng raise his head and look at him.

He smiled and said, "In ten days at the shortest and half a month at the longest, we will be able to reach Pangjiang. Then we can go downstream in Pangjiang and go much faster."

"At the latest, we can reach Luwu Mountain before July 15th."

Lu Heng gave the answer with a smile, but this answer almost made the little boy collapse.

"July 15th... that's too late!" Shen Wuyou said anxiously: "Sister has been captured by the evil spirits in Qingming Cave for eight days, and I don't know what kind of torture she has suffered. Now we have to wait for more than a month... Daddy! Can't we fly there directly?"

The little boy was almost crying.

Seeing him like this, Lu Heng also restrained his smile and sighed.

"Wuyou think I can save Xiaoyu if I'm faster?"

Lu Heng's words made the little boy stunned for a moment, and he didn't quite understand this question.

Lu Heng smiled and said, "Wuyou, you think things are too simple. Qingming Cave is hidden very deep. Even now, no one knows where their nest is."

"Even if I take you to Luwu Mountain right now and see your mother's former residence, what next? Where should we go to find your sister next? Wuyou, do you know the location of Qingming Cave?"

Lu Heng's question made the little boy confused: "This... this..."

Lu Heng patted his shoulder and said, "So no matter how fast we go, we can't find your sister."

"On the contrary, if we want to find your sister, we can't go fast now."

"Not only can we not go fast, we have to go slow."

Lu Heng looked at the dark night outside the post station and sighed, "We have to go slow enough for Qingming Cave to clearly know our whereabouts and discuss a response result. In this way, we can have a chance to see your sister."
