Huang Yu heard something unusual from Jiuluan's words, but he couldn't figure out what was unusual for a while. So they simply asked Peony Flower Jing if she knew what was going on outside. After all, she had been here for a long time, so she might know something that they hadn't noticed.
Shaoyao: "I'm not sure, but I've been hearing about the meat of spiritual beasts being eaten recently. But this restaurant has been selling spiritual beasts since the day it opened. I don't know why these comments have appeared recently."
Huang Yu thought about what he had seen and heard in the past two days. He always felt that he knew some big secret, but he couldn't find the entrance. He decided to go to the city lord's mansion at night to explore and ask Qing Gu. "Sister, I always feel that something is wrong. I remember yesterday that the vendor said that hunters only hunt small beasts. Spiritual beasts are very skilled and generally will not be caught. Then how come there is such a thing here since ten years ago? Where are the people selling spirit animal meat?”
Jiuluan also felt a little strange. Although the Dragon Clan had disappeared for a long time, the White Tiger Clan that ruled this place was still there. How could there be such a restaurant selling spirit animal meat so blatantly and full of guests. Although the human race has developed its own cities over the past 20,000 years, most of them are cities and counties where humans and beasts live together. The human race is not as strong as the beast race, nor does it live as long as the beast race, so it will never take the initiative to feed on spiritual beasts; After the tribe cultivates into adulthood, they no longer need to absorb spiritual power from spiritual beasts, nor do they know how to eat them; so what exactly is going on? "Yu'er, you go to the City Lord's Mansion at night and ask Qing Lu about the recent changes in the City Lord's Mansion. Qingyu and I will go to the woods on the outskirts of the city to find out what happened there recently."
The three of them discussed it for a while and decided not to join in the fun. They just ate a few side dishes and returned to the inn.
At night, Huang Yu found the back door of the City Lord's Mansion along the back alley. The City Lord's Mansion was very quiet tonight. In order to ensure that she was not discovered, she decided to say hello to Qing Lu first. "Xiao Gushu, is there anyone in the backyard?"
In the courtyard, after sorting through his thoughts for a day, Gu Shu finally understood why he sounded familiar to Huang Yu. The sound of a small walnut tree gave him a little more color in his lonely late night. Looking around, I saw the little white bird hiding outside the courtyard, "You have made a lot of progress this day, and you have learned how to communicate with spirits!"
"I just don't know, it's not that I don't know how to do it. I learn things very quickly. Come on, is there anyone coming here tonight?" Huang Yu stayed still for fear of falling into the mouth of a beast.
"No, you can come in and hide up there." Gushu was very happy that finally someone was willing to come and play with him. He thought last night was a dream. After all, when he heard the name Huang Yu a month ago, he was I also felt like I was dreaming.
Huang Yu cautiously ran to the branch, "I named you Qinggu. What do you think? You are a 榖tree. I hope you will be evergreen and stand forever, just like the sacred tree in our tribe. , when there are no leaves falling. Of course I know you will fall leaves, but this is a wish. When you cultivate into human form, you will no longer fall leaves."
"Okay, okay, I have a name! What should I call you? Little Huangyu~~Huang Xiaoyu~~Sister Huangyu~~??" Qinglu was very happy to have a name, but thought of Huangyu's age She is older than him, but smaller than him, and she is the one whose voice says that she should always pay attention to what is going on. I don't know what to call her.
"Call me Huang Yu. I'm the youngest in the clan. Everyone likes to call me Little Huang Yu. But I've already come out so I don't want to have another baby. But I don't want to be a sister either, so I'll just call me by my first name. ." Huang Yu struggled for a moment and thought it would be better to just call him by his name. "Oh, by the way, Qinglu, did the Gale Leopard bring back a big thing last night? I saw it at the city gate."
"I brought back a toy, but that's not a toy, it's the city lord's son." One Tree and One Bird started chatting like this.
Huang Yu: "I saw them carrying him at the city gate, and then they said not to open the city gate until the second group of people came back. I was scared and ran back. Please tell me what happened to the city lord's son and why he was here in the middle of the night. He ran outside the city and was carried back? Is he the one they are looking for? Why are they looking for him? "
Qinglu: "This started when I first became a spirit two hundred years ago. Do you have time to listen this time?"
"I only have one thing to chat with you tonight, so it doesn't matter even if you talk short and long." Huang Yu thought that Jiuluan and Qingyu would be able to find out a lot of useful information when they went outside the city, so she just All you need to do is guard the city lord's mansion. Qinglu must know a lot about it.
Qinglu: "Okay, just listen to me slowly~~~~"
···
"Qinglu, you've been talking for three hours. Aren't you tired? Don't you need a rest?" Huang Yu's eyelids began to tremble after listening to Qinglu's chatter all night.
"Of course I won't be tired. The spiritual energy at night is the purest. As long as we are awake, we can absorb the spiritual energy and practice spiritual power. But I have been in this courtyard for so long and I haven't left yet. I don't know if the woods on the outskirts of the city you mentioned are the same. A tree like me." Qingli was full of energy, with a hint of longing for the outside world.
Huang Yu recalled what Qing Lu had told her and felt that the road ahead might not be easy. She roughly knew that Jiuluan would not continue to accompany her, "Qing Lu, I'll go back and ask my good friend Cao Mu How can you cultivate and take shape? Then you practice well. When I come back from the experience, if you are still there, you will go to my home with me, okay? We don’t have a walnut tree there. If you go, you will definitely be very upset. welcome."
"Do any of your friends have trees that have been formed through cultivation?"
"It's not a tree, she's a grass, a seven-leaf spiritual grass. Her name is Qiye. Originally, I wanted to bring her with me, but I couldn't find her when I left."
"Yicao has become a cultivator, so you must ask your friend, will you still come tonight?"
"I don't know. I always feel that there are secrets behind the things you told me. I need to discuss it with my sister first. She has a lot of family affairs, so she will definitely be able to tell that there is something wrong. It's already Yinshi, so I'll go back first. !" Huang Yu ran down the tree, thinking in her heart, "I talked so much nonsense all night, I don't even know what to listen to, ε=(´ο｀*))) Oh!"
Back at the inn, Jiuluan and Qingyu haven't come back yet. Huang Yu, who has many questions, sits on the couch and misses her Qiye.
In Lingqi Valley:
Qiye finally came out of the forbidden area. She never thought that the elders had actually noticed her since the day she gained spiritual consciousness. The spells she practiced later were specially selected for her by the elders. Of course, she was accidentally injured. It wasn't their arrangement, it was Huang Yu's recklessness, and the third elder temporarily forgot about Qiye hiding behind. For more than a month in the forbidden area, I have been practicing how to integrate spiritual power with elixirs and use spiritual power to improve the effect of treatment. The elders said that Huang Yu's coming out of the valley this time would be life-threatening, and they didn't know if it would be an opportunity for Huang Yu to achieve nirvana. Qiye was a little worried. When he returned to the medicine garden, he started to prepare the items he needed to bring, so that he would not have time to pack them when Jiuluan sent the news.
"I don't know where they are now..."
