Beside the camp, the bonfire flickered on and off, and the reflected face of Wu Gen was sometimes cold and sometimes warm. The whole person was as elusive as the yin and yang statues in the temples of the world.
Baoxiang has been tossing and has not stopped yet, so Wu Gen sits by the camp and waits quietly for his return. Today is a great day for good brothers to break through, and no one else is allowed to come and disturb them.
There was the sound of messy footsteps behind him. Wu Gen didn't look back, he just looked in the direction of Baoxiang from a distance.
Plop, a person sat slumped behind him, breathing disorderly. Another person walked up to Wu Gen and paused for a moment before speaking, "Wu Gen, Feng'er has something to say to you."
Wu Gen just looked up at this time, with a look of surprise on his face, "Feng'er is awake, that's great. It's so late at night, are you in such a hurry? Taking a good rest is the right way."
Qi He's face looked a little ugly, "As soon as Feng'er woke up, she urged me to help her here." After saying that, he squatted down for a long time and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I'm sorry."
Wu Gen shrugged and patted Qi He, "You know, I wanted to hide it from you. But now that you have spoken, it's okay, don't worry." After a pause, Wu Gen said quietly, "There are some things. , I still need to make it clear to her face to face, so please stay out of the way."
Qi He nodded, stood up and left. When passing by Feng'er, he couldn't help but sigh.
When the footsteps were far away, Wu Gen turned around with a chill on his face, "Feng'er, I always thought that even if we couldn't become friends after spending so many days together, we wouldn't become enemies.
However, today you harmed me in the quagmire. Even if you did it covertly, you can't deceive anyone but your true intentions. There is an oath between you and me. As long as you have the intention to kill, the oath will be activated. If I hadn't forgiven you today, I'm afraid your soul would have been gone by now.
The reason why I am like this is not that I am soft-hearted, but I just don’t want to ruin the brotherhood. Remember, this kind of thing is unique. If you dare to act maliciously next time, you will bring disaster upon yourself, and no one will be able to save you.
I know that you were forced to sign this oath, and with your temperament, you must be dissatisfied. To be honest, I don’t want to be your Laoshizi master, isn’t this all forced upon me? On the way forward, you and I can still be equal to each other and be the same as before. Remember, this is the last time I will talk to you calmly, so do it and cherish it. "
After saying that, Wu Gen stood up and walked towards Baoxiang's position. This big guy smashed the ground all over the place and still refused to let anyone stop. If there is nothing to make a living from now on, building houses and laying foundations would be a good thing.
In the early morning, dewdrops flowed among the dense green branches and leaves on the meadow, and several colorful birds sang cheerful songs. Suddenly, a strange scream came from a distance, breaking the poetic atmosphere here, and a fat figure roared after the scream.
"Wu Gen, I've made a breakthrough, please call the experts." Baoxiang's rough voice made Wu Gen's ears hurt.
Wu Gen wiped the dew off the broken knife and stood up impatiently, "Okay, isn't it just the third realm? Well, except for it." He pointed at the holly bird that was grabbing a bone and chewing on it, " Who here is not better than you, come here and say good morning to all the masters."
"Go, go, it's very disappointing." Baoxiang pushed Wu Gen away, "Hurry up and eat, I'm starving." He said and hurried into the camp. After rummaging around, he showed off to everyone the clothes on his arms. Bulging muscles.
Sure enough, it was completely different from before, both inside and outside, as if it had been completely transformed. Wu Gen looked at Baoxiang with a smile and wandered back to the camp. I stayed out all night last night and really needed to get something to eat.
Soon, smoke rose from the camp, and laughter and birdsong filled the somewhat quiet meadow.
Several people packed their luggage and set off. On the way, Wu Gen kept looking at the sword that Baoxiang had picked up. Wu Gen recognized this sword as Ye Ziming's Fengxi Sword. Looking at the Rushui sword body, Wu Gen couldn't help but feel sad. Since the sword was lost here, the owner must have suffered some misfortune.
Ye Ziming met him in Beirong, and he got this holly bird from him. Although this person was a bit dandy, his temperament was generally good. His death in the Great Relic Continent was really a bit disappointing.
A group of people walking
After a few days, I finally walked out of this meadow, and sparse trees gradually appeared in front of me. The holly bird has already flown out to explore the way. Ever since it learned to fly, this bird has been enjoying it all day long. It is also very competitive. As long as there is a bird flying in front of it in the sky, it will definitely chase it and beat it to a good beating before giving up.
Everyone has long been accustomed to this bird's temperament, and as long as they don't encounter any big raptors, they don't bother to care about it.
Suddenly, a sad bird call came from the air. Wu Gen was startled. He looked up and saw the holly bird flying towards this side. When he saw Wu Gen, he fell from the sky.
Wu Gen strode forward and caught the unconscious Holly Bird, and several other people gathered around him.
The holly bird had passed out, and a large piece of feathers was missing near its right wing. The flesh and blood on it were blurred, and the pink flesh buds were squirming, and there was a faint black air coming out.
"Which beast did this? He dares to hurt our birds. Go and pick him." Baoxiang was furious and was about to rush out with an ax. In this team, apart from Wu Gen, the one who usually fights with the holly bird the most is Baoxiang. Suddenly seeing the bird being seriously injured, and with its increased strength, of course he couldn't hold it back.
"No, this injury is a bit weird." Wu Gen stared at the wound, frowning, and suddenly thought of something, "Feng'er, come over and see if this is an injury caused by negative energy."
Feng'er has become much more honest these days since she was warned by Wu Gen. After hearing this, she stepped forward and looked at the wound carefully, nodded and said: "It is indeed the damage caused by adverse energy, and it is extremely authentic and generally very difficult to pick." Tiandao. Having studied Niqi for so many years, I will naturally not admit my mistake.
"Ni Qi." Upon hearing these two words, everyone gasped.
As a human race, we are familiar with negative energy. Several genocide disasters in the history of the human race were all caused by alien races that relied on adverse energy to survive. Until now, although the two sides are generally in a state of truce, there are still a lot of small-scale frictions between them. As a result, the human race still retains a large number of garrison soldiers, guarding the junction of the two.
Such pure negative energy is either caused by people who have close contact with foreign races, or people from foreign races have arrived in the Great Relic Continent. If it is the latter, it will be a bit troublesome, and the meeting will only end in a fight to the death.
The top priority was to quickly treat Holly Bird's injuries. Since we didn't think too much about the threat of aliens during this trip, and because we were carrying a lot of supplies, we didn't have many Guyuan Dan in our possessions. After rummaging around for a long time, I found two, and quickly stuffed them all into the holly bird to delay the onset of negative energy. But the Gu Yuan Pill is best taken before being hit by negative energy. At this time, there are already signs of changes in the Holly Bird.
"If we don't think of something soon, I'm afraid this bird will turn into a monster, and it will be difficult to control by then." Feng'er reminded that so many monsters in Tiandao Sect were created with adverse energy. Natural Xiao The pros and cons.
Wu Gen pulled out the broken knife, hesitated for a moment, and cut into Holly Bird's wound. As soon as the blade penetrated the flesh, the hidden black energy surged out and merged into the broken knife.
After a stick of incense, Wu Gen saw that there was no more black energy coming out, and Wu Gen cut off the rotten flesh from the holly bird's wound. Apply the best gold wound medicine and wrap it carefully.
Feng'er's eyes flickered when she saw the broken sword being so strange, but it quickly returned to normal.
After a while, Holly Bird's breathing gradually became calmer, and Wu Gen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Keep going forward." Qihe's face was grim. If he went any further, he might run into a foreign race. By then, a fight will be inevitable. According to the records in the book, the alien race has extremely high combat power. Under the same level, the human race usually loses, so everyone cannot help but be careless.
"Let's go, maybe it's not an alien race, but a human race that has mastered the means of controlling negative energy." Wu Gen said immediately and glanced at Feng'er, "Even if they are alien races, they shouldn't be in large numbers, so just fight. We still have a long way to go. It’s a long way, so we can’t take a detour and waste time.”
The group of people set out on the road again with their thoughts in mind, and the holly bird had its own treasure elephant carrying it. After walking for another two days, traces of the road gradually appeared ahead, which also meant that someone was active here. Going further, under a hill, everyone saw a solid dock.
The high courtyard wall fully surrounds the entire hill. Depending on its regulations, it can accommodate hundreds of people.
Not a problem. Through the courtyard wall, you can see tomb-like huts hanging on the mountain wall.
Wu Gen looked back and signaled the others to be careful. When walking in the Great Relic Continent, those wild beasts are not bad, but I am afraid of encountering these races that have escaped from ignorance. Anyone who can survive in the Great Relic Continent must have various strange methods.
Walking to the Wubao, looking at the tightly closed oak door, Wu Gen stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door nervously, not knowing what kind of monster would come out from behind the door. Shui Congyue and others surrounded the Holly Bird and formed a defensive formation. If the attackers were unkind, they could at least retreat slowly.
After a long time, a figure appeared from the wall of Wubao, but he looked like a human youth. Her hair was disheveled and there were two huge earrings hanging on her ears.
It was the human race. Wu Gen looked surprised and looked back at everyone.
A rapid sound of gongs sounded on the wall. Well, Wu Gen didn't think it was a welcoming gesture, so he took a few steps back and looked at the door warily.
Ouch, ouch, a scattered cry came, the door opened, and a dozen young men wearing leather armor, holding swords, guns and crossbows rushed out. Many of these people have complicated patterns on their bodies, some have earrings on their ears, and some have large iron rings on their noses.
"Women, there are women. I discovered them first this time, and I have to use them first." The young man in the lead shouted excitedly in the language of Da Yizhou. After walking in Dayizhou for so long, several people have already mastered this language.
Wu Gen turned around and glanced at Feng'er, whose face had already turned pale with anger. According to what the other party said, if Feng'er was really snatched into it, several families would take turns snatching her as their wife.
However, looking at the postures of these people, some are holding swords to press forward, and some are holding bows to cover. They have some tricks, maybe they are some gangsters who have gathered together.
Wu Gen couldn't help but feel happy. After walking in Dayizhou for such a long time, he unexpectedly met a fellow robber here, and judging from his appearance, he was still a pure human race.
"Everyone, we are just passing by. We don't have any ill intentions towards Guizhai. We just want to ask for a drink of water. Why bother to use knives and guns." Wu Gen cupped his hands and responded calmly, but secretly he was directed at Shui Congyue. He winked.
The leading young man laughed and said, "Are you coming to Dayizhou from outside?"
"Exactly." Wu Gen nodded.
"That's right, it's you people who are being robbed. A few days ago, the elders passed down the message that if we capture the alien race and buy it at a high price from the Zhengmeng Alliance, the women will be three times more expensive than the men. Today is really good luck. , unexpectedly saw a woman, now prosperous." The young man waved an iron rod in his hand and kept looking at Feng'er.
Wu Gen shook his head. The other party was not doing a decent job. He was either robbing money or robbing people. If he wanted both money and people, wouldn't it be breaking the rules of the road?
