"Oh haha, let's wait until you catch me -" Qinghuang's voice sounded full of satisfaction when he heard it from a distance. Guan Heng shook his head: "That's all, a good man won't fight with a woman, so I'll let you have a chance. .”
…
A few moments later, in front of the gate of Sekiling Castle, the territory of the Sekiling tribe.
"Brother, please tell me that we are here to sign up to go into the mountains to hunt evil beasts." Qinghuang smiled and handed the wooden sign in her hand upwards: "This is the registration sign I got from the opposite side."
"Okay, please wait a moment, girl." The strong man from the Red Spirit tribe who was guarding the door slightly turned around and walked away. Guan Heng laughed softly behind Qing Huang and said, "It seems that it is good to have a beautiful woman come forward, and the other party will be polite when speaking. point."
Qinghuang Yanran whispered: "Hey, of course, you don't care who I am."
"You two, our elders from the Red Spirit Clan, Lord Zhi, would like to see you." The big man guarding the door hurriedly came over and said, "Please come this way."
A few breaths later, in the elder's room, Guan Heng and the others saw the elder of the Red Spirit Clan - Zhi. This man was in his fifties, with a good appearance and a kind face. He was holding a cane and his clothes were all red. The pattern is in line with the identity of the elder of the Sekiling Tribe.
"Hey, you are not from the Spirit Tribe? This is rare." After hearing the other party's surprised words, Guan Heng smiled and said: "Rare does not mean that there is none. Elder Zhi, let me put it this way, you have seen people who are not from the Spirit Tribe before." Who are you?"
Hearing this, the old man slightly frowned: "Yes, that was decades ago. Three young people from the lower world came together. They were powerful and wanted to go to the Spirit King's Palace. Time flies so fast. Hurry..."
"By the way, do you two also want to go to the Lingwang Palace to find a way to return to the lower realm?" After hearing what Elder Zhi said, Guan Heng and Qinghuang were shocked, and they asked in unison: "Could it be said that there is really a way to return to the Lingwang Palace? The way to the lower world?"
"Of course." The elder of the Red Spirit Tribe smiled slightly: "If there is a path to other places in the spirit world, it must be where the Spirit King lives. I also said the same to the three young people back then. of."
"Haha, I got important information unexpectedly. We are in the right place." Guan Heng and Qing Huang first looked at each other and smiled, and then said to Elder Zhi: "We want to follow the hunting team of the Red Spirit Clan to the Ancient Spirit Gorge. Then go to the Spiritual Palace, elder, is this okay?"
"Well, of course..."
"Wait!" Elder Zhi had just said this when a menacing short, fat old man suddenly rushed into the room. He shouted sternly: "These two people have unknown origins. They must not be allowed to sneak into the hunting team. I don't agree with it. .”
"Elder Feng, I'm afraid this is against the rules, isn't it?" Elder Zhi's face suddenly darkened when he saw the person coming.
As he spoke, he twirled his beard and spoke slowly: "I have already promised these two young people to follow me, how can I not keep my promise? The Red Spirit Clan has always been known for its integrity. Don't let the good reputation of this clan be ruined. Once in a while."
"What?!" Seeing the other party's righteous rebuttal to him, the short, fat elder Feng suddenly widened his eyes, and he growled: "You and I are the leaders of this hunting of the Sekiling Tribe. If you don’t agree, you can’t make the decision alone.”
Guan Heng heard the two people arguing in his ears, but he glanced outside the door with the corner of his eye. A suspicious-looking figure immediately shrank and hid.
"Hmph, it's that bastard named 'Ju'." Guan Heng whispered to Qing Huang at this time: "In my opinion, he was the one who instigated this fat old man to stop us from joining the hunting team."
"Damn it, this guy is really the root of all bad things." Qing Huang frowned, and just as he was about to continue speaking, the two elders on the opposite side suddenly raised their voices in the argument.
"Let's see, you and I each have our own opinions, and there's no way to continue arguing like this." Elder Zhi thought for a while and said, "Don't talk too hard, just put forward a condition, how can we agree to let these two young people People follow us.”
Hearing this, Elder Chubby Feng rolled his eyes, and he stamped his feet and said: "Well, I'm not a random person. As long as these two people can pass the test I set, they can join the hunt for evil spirits." The team of beasts.”
Now that the other party has made the conditions clear, Elder Zhi couldn't say anything else, so he waved to Guan Heng and Qing Huang and said, "Come, listen to the contents of Elder Feng's trial. If you think you can do it, , then get ready to start.”
Guan Heng was a very smart person. He immediately understood that this was an opportunity that the other party was fighting for, and he said, "Okay, everything will depend on the instructions of the two elders."
"Hmm..." The short and fat elder Feng's face was as dark as water at this time. He was pacing in the room while repeatedly looking at the appearance of Guan Heng and Qing Huang.
The old man thought to himself: "What can two little furry children with unfinished fetal hair be capable of? This boy is only in the false black realm, and the girl has just touched the edge of the crimson realm. I am going to cause a big trouble. , just let them retreat when faced with difficulties.”
After making up his mind, Elder Feng said: "Don't think that I am deliberately making things difficult. In fact, hunting evil beasts involves a narrow escape. If you are not good at it, you will definitely die. So, in order to test your strength, I will give you a question. , you go and finish it.”
Then, the pudgy elder told Guan Heng and Guan Heng all the tasks he had assigned.
It turns out that there is a black mist canyon near Linghu Mountain, and there are more than a hundred evil beasts that are not too strong living in it. It is not very difficult for the Red Spirit tribe to completely eliminate them, but they have never done so. .
Because the ancestors of the Sekiling Tribe have gone through bloody battles before they were able to thrive here and barely gain a foothold. In order to make their next generation realize that survival is not easy and to exercise their physique and strength, those evil beasts in the Black Mist Canyon It was reserved as a training ground for the young people of the Sekirei clan.
Every once in a while, the Red Spirit Clan will send a group of young people into the valley to fight fiercely with evil beasts, in order to exercise the practical experience of these new forces. The reason why the Red Spirit Tribe has strong people in large numbers is also due to the hard training in the Black Mist Canyon. There is an inseparable relationship.
However, during the annual "Evil Beasts Besiege the Mountain" period, no one dares to step into the Black Mist Canyon, because the evil beasts at this time are the most ferocious and bloodthirsty, and their numbers will increase dramatically. If you are careful, you will be tortured to death by the evil beasts. Who would take the risk again?
"I want you to go to the Black Mist Canyon, kill ten 'one-eyed red falcons', and retrieve at least ten of the eyes of these evil birds. This way you will pass the trial."
When Elder Chubby Feng said this, Guan Heng noticed that the face of Elder Zhi next to him changed slightly, but he knew that he could never refuse at this time, so he said, "Okay, let's go to Black Mist Canyon now."
"Hmph, you really are a young man who is not afraid of death. Then I will wait for news from you." With that said, the short and fat old man put on an expression of "I'm doing well" and walked away.
