The Wild Forest is one of the three largest forests on this continent. It is the largest forest in the Western Region. It is located in the south of the Western Region and is the dividing line between the Western Region and Southern Xinjiang. This forest does not belong to any of the seven countries in the Western Region, but it is adjacent to the southern border of the Xia Kingdom. Outside the wild forest is a famous city of the Xia Kingdom - Luzhou City, also known as the "Beast Royal City" and "Yuzhou City". The city of elixirs.” This city is the oldest giant city on the southern border of Xia Kingdom. If you compare Qingzhou City with this place, it is far less prosperous than here. The area of Luzhou City is more than ten times that of Qingzhou City. Although this is the border of Xia Kingdom, because it needs to resist the invasion of ferocious beasts coming out of the wild forest, Xia Kingdom has arranged heavy troops to guard this city. The residents living in Luzhou City have been dealing with animals all year round, which makes the people here fierce. The customs and sentiments are very different from those of the residents of Qingzhou City.
On this day, there was a young man standing outside the gate of Luzhou City. He looked up at the tower, seemingly lost in reminiscence. This young man is none other than Pei Feng. He is fourteen years old and has grown to the size of an average adult man. Perhaps due to years of physical training, his bone development is also similar to that of an adult man. That beautiful face lost its childishness, adding a man's perseverance and freedom.
It has been almost a year since I left Wuwei Taoism. During this year, he was alone in the wind and rain, using the sky as his quilt and the earth as his bed, sleeping in the open air and taking care of himself. Become that wandering boy again. But he wasn't walking aimlessly. He is going to the wild forest. There are two reasons to go there. The first is that you can hide yourself better in the wild forest. The second reason is because he plans to go to the wild forest to find spiritual herbs and medicine to make elixirs for his sister. In fact, there is another reason, but he himself is not willing to admit it, and that is to make sure that someone he hated is still alive.
At this moment, Pei Feng looked at the three big characters "Luzhou City" on the tower and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He started fleeing here when he was eight years old, and returned here six years later. Once upon a time, I was like this, standing here staring at the words on the city wall. At that time, he and Qian Yao fled into the wild forest. After recovering from his injuries in the forest, he decided to look for Qingzhou City. Qian Yao sent him outside Luzhou City. He bitterly separated from Qian Yao and embarked on the road of escape alone. At that time, he looked at the city but did not go into it. He didn't want to see any humans then. So he used the clan's secret technique to hide his figure, bypassed the city, and went north from the wilderness to find Qingzhou City. Now that I am back here outside Luzhou City, I can't help but feel a little emotional. This moment is exactly like six years ago. But the difference is that he is no longer the despairing and confused child.
At this time, Pei Feng was thinking a lot. A group of men and horses galloped out of the city gate on unicorns. They were moving so fast that they stirred up smoke and dust all over the ground. Pei Feng fanned the dust in front of him with his hand and saw that all those people were wearing animal skins and had burly bodies. They were obviously martial arts masters. There are at least thirty people in this team alone. How many martial arts masters did Chu Feilong capture in Qingzhou City? It can be seen that Luzhou City is indeed not comparable to Qingzhou City. Just listen to the leader say: "Quick, the scale of the beast tide this time is very large. The frontline soldiers will be unable to defend it. We must not let the beast tide break through our defense line." The voice sounded from near to far, and a group of people were gone. And went.
"Tide of beasts?"
"Come in quickly. The city gate is about to close!" An old woman grabbed Pei Feng's hand and pulled him into the city.
"Why are the city gates closed in broad daylight?" Pei Feng asked smoothly.
"What kind of city gate should you close? If you don't close the city gate, will you wait for the ferocious beasts to come in and eat everyone?" After speaking, the old woman glanced at the city gate and said to Pei Feng: "My son was the leader of the team just now. He gathered some friends to help." The old woman showed a proud look. It seems that the child in front of him can learn from his son and be like his son. "Child, you must not go when you are still young. Go home quickly. The evil stars are coming these days, so don't go out."
Only then did Pei Feng realize that the old woman had misunderstood. But he didn't explain anything and asked: "What kind of evil star is it?"
"Child, are you not from this city?"
Pei Feng shook his head.
"Hey, why did you choose this time to come to Luzhou City! What are you doing here?"
Pei Feng thought about what happened just now and felt that he couldn't tell the truth that he was going to the wild forest at this moment. He hesitated and said: "I'm here to buy... something."
The old woman asked: "Buying elixirs?"
"Yes!...I haven't said it yet, but you guessed it right away."
"Hey, what else can you buy when you come to our Luzhou City! Luzhou City is famous for its elixirs. Eight out of ten foreigners who come to our place buy elixirs."
"That's right, that's right." Pei Feng responded casually, but what he was thinking about was the beast tide. After all, he was going into the forest, and an outbreak of beasts was not good news for him.
The old woman asked again and again: "My child, what elixir do you want to buy? Come with me, old lady. But remember, you can't leave the city for a few days after buying the elixir. Be careful you lose your life."
Pei Feng secretly cursed himself. Just now, because I was afraid that the kind-hearted mother-in-law would be worried, I calmly said something. But I didn't expect that I would have to pay for my lies so soon. Do we really need to buy some elixirs? His pockets are cleaner than his face.
"Mother-in-law, you still don't know what I want to buy..."
"Haha, young man. Although my Mu family's elixir is not the most famous in Luzhou City, it can still be ranked third. What kind of elixir does our Mu family not have!" Every time the old woman said this, "The Mu family's elixir is When using the word "", the tone will be emphasized, and a look of pride will naturally appear on the face. She was very sure that this young man from out of town had heard of the Mu family's name. As long as she mentioned the Mu family, the young man would definitely feel awe.
Pei Feng looked at the mother-in-law's expression and made a guess. Pretending, "Oh, it turns out you are from the Mu family!"
The old woman was really happy. She waved her hand and said, "I'm just an old slave of the Mu family." After saying that, she took Pei Feng's hand again, this time with more enthusiasm.
"Let's go, I'll take you to my Mu family's medicine hall. With my wife's respect, you can also save some money."
Pei Feng followed the old woman with his head drooped. He still couldn't figure out where the old man's inexplicable enthusiasm came from. Maybe many old people in this world have this kind of fraternity, as if all the children in the world are their own.
"Forget it...at worst, we'll have to exchange things for things..." Pei Feng sighed inwardly.
Pei Feng followed the old woman for a long time. Seeing the solemn expressions of the pedestrians along the way, I guess the tide of beasts outside the city really gave the people here a headache.
He asked: "Mother-in-law, do beast tides often break out in Luzhou City?"
"What's the point of frequent outbreaks? This beast wave must have been brought about by that damned evil star. That little beast didn't learn well." She cursed fiercely.
Pei Feng didn't know who the evil star the old lady mentioned many times was. When he was about to ask, he saw a woman running past him. If he looked closely, the woman's face was so black that she looked very funny. When the woman passed by the two of him, she hurriedly said hello to the old woman. "Hello Granny Mu."
The old woman looked slightly angry. He said to the woman: "You're from the next life! You still dare to walk on this street! Who knows if the evil star is still in the city? Even if there is a serious matter, you are not allowed to go out these days!"
The woman responded hurriedly. In a flash, he plunged into a nearby house.
The old woman felt relieved when she saw the woman entering the courtyard. Then she cursed angrily: "That little beast who doesn't learn well!"
Pei Feng finally couldn't help but asked: "Mother-in-law, what did the evil star you mentioned do? Why does it make you so angry?"
It was okay if Pei Feng didn't ask, but the old woman became completely furious when he asked. The originally extremely kind face was trembling slightly. "What did he do!! That little beast came to our Luzhou City and snatched away my eldest daughter. This beast wave must have been caused by that little beast. What a evil star!" My wife mentioned that the man hated Zhi Zhi. Stomp your feet.
"Someone robbed the eldest daughter of the Mu family?" Pei Feng vaguely felt that this scene seemed familiar. I had a very bad premonition in my heart.
"Mother-in-law, what's that person's name?"
"Who else could this little beast be? It's Ye Canghai who doesn't learn well!"
"Ah??? Ye Canghai!"
