Legends about dragons are very strange not only to Wufan, but also to monsters.
But it's a bit general to say this. Compared with human curiosity, monsters are actually more afraid or in awe.
Even the red ant king couldn't help but lower his voice when he said this word.
I heard from the Red Ant King that the reason why they have never had a demon king here is mainly because of this dragon.
On the twelfth floor of the Demon Locking Tower, the most powerful monsters among the monsters would all claim their own territories as kings. Although the Red Ant King was also the king, he had never admitted that his king was the demon king.
The reason for this is not that the Red Ant King is humble. The main reason is that the river here is on the edge of the Red Ant King's sphere of influence. Under the invisible pressure, the Red Ant King certainly did not dare to cross the gap between the King and the Demon King.
Wu Fan had also heard stories about dragons. He remembered clearly that Mu Fengchun told him this story.
Back then, Mu Fengchun was still a young Chunzi in the Shichuan Kingdom. It was the Wood Spirit Pearl that was gifted by the Dragon King that gave him the name Mu Fengchun.
Wu Fan also asked Mu Fengchun at that time if the latter knew the whereabouts of the dragon, but Mu Fengchun just shook his head. When he woke up, everything had changed, and the whereabouts of the Dragon King and his clan members were also unknown...
Now that he heard what the Red Ant King said, Wu Fan suddenly had a lot of thoughts. No wonder the dragon clan only has legends left in the mortal world. Could it be that they have come to the Demon Locking Tower since then?
After thinking about it carefully, Wu Fan shook his head again.
According to what he learned from the book, dragons are all noble in birth and live in purity. There is no reason or possibility to associate with monsters and live in a dirty place like the Demon Locking Tower.
He tentatively asked the Red Ant King if the latter had seen a dragon with his own eyes, and what he got was indeed the latter's negative answer, making Wu Fan even more sure of his guess.
The location of the Black Roc King was uncertain. Wu Fan didn't want to waste time and had decided to cross directly from the river. But in order not to worry the Red Ant King, he did not tell the truth and pretended to ask more details about the Hundred-hole Bridge.
"Ouch! Stop! You're not completely healed yet, so you can't run around!" Ma Laosan's voice suddenly came from outside the Red Ant King's residence.
Wu Fan and the Red Ant King happened to end their conversation, and both turned their gazes towards the door, only to see the six men hurriedly appearing in front of them.
Unexpectedly, Liuzi would appear. Wu Fan looked the latter up and down and asked with concern: "Liuzi, are you okay?"
"There's no need for you to worry about it, just take care of yourself." The anxiety in Liuzi's eyes faded away, replaced by a layer of indifference.
Wu Fan had become accustomed to Liuzi's attitude and said with a smile: "Liuzi, I have something to do and I have to leave. How about you just stay here and recuperate?"
"There's no need...gu..." Halfway through Liuzi's words, a gurgling sound suddenly came from his stomach.
"Hahaha... In that case, sir and this friend, please wait a moment, Xiaosheng will ask someone to prepare some food for you." With that, the Red Ant King gave Ma Lao San a few instructions.
It would not be necessary for Wu Fan himself, but judging from the attitude of the six sons, he would not stay here no matter what.
Regardless of whether Liuzi follows him or leaves, Wu Fan really can't let him be implicated by him, so he can only agree.
"King Red Ant, just prepare for the six sons. I'm still... not hungry yet." Wu Fan didn't know how to explain his situation, so he could only say this.
"Don't worry, sir, Xiaosheng, this food is not a scarce thing!" The Red Ant King lowered his voice, "And it can also nourish your soul."
Wu Fan was stunned when he heard this. It seemed that the Red Ant King had indeed communicated with Mu Qianren...
…
"Sir, Xiaosheng is waiting here for you to come back." At the edge of the red line, the Red Ant King cupped his fists and said.
Wu Fan subconsciously glanced at Liuzi beside him, but the latter snorted and turned around, leaving him speechless for a while.
"Then... I'll trouble the Red Ant King then." Wu Fan hurriedly thanked him in return.
"It's no trouble. It's my honor to work for you, sir." The Red Ant King looked sincere again.
"Wufan said goodbye." After seeing Liuzi for a while, he was almost gone.
The figure disappeared and Wu Fan hurriedly dropped a sentence.
"Farewell, Your Majesty! Farewell, Your Majesty!" Seeing Wu Fan leaving, a group of monster beasts behind the Red Ant King, led by Ma Laosan, shouted loudly.
The corner of Wu Fan's mouth trembled, and he speeded up without looking back. If others saw this posture, they might think that he was the demon king...
…
As he was about to leave the cover of the woods, Wu Fan was greeted by a patch of wind and sand.
"I said Liuzi..."
"My feet are on my body. Liu Zi can go wherever he wants without you having to worry about it!" Another cold voice responded to Wu Fan.
Ufan suddenly felt a headache: "Who said you should go back? What I mean is that the wind and sand ahead are too strong, and I want to replenish supplies here."
"It's really troublesome." Liuzi hesitated for a moment, then turned around and sat back.
On the road just now, if Wu Fan asked anything, Liu Zi would speed up. Now that he finally got the chance, Wu Fan was about to speak again.
"The legs are on you, and you can go wherever you like..." This time Wu Fan was smart and stole Liu Zi's lines in advance, "So don't leave in a hurry, I want to ask you something else!"
Taking the package from Wu Fan, Liuzi took out the food inside and wolfed it down while nodding.
"I asked you before, Senior Mu, Xiao Jie and the others..."
"I was sent away by Hua Ji." Liu Zi puffed up his cheeks and said.
Although Liu Zi's eating appearance was a bit funny, Wu Fan did not dare to laugh at him, fearing that this bad temper would never speak again.
Knowing that Mu Fengchun and Xiao Jie were out of danger, a huge stone finally fell on Wu Fan's heart: "What about you? Why didn't you leave together? Oops..." Wu Fan regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.
"My feet grow on my own body. Liu Zi can go wherever he wants. You don't need to worry about it!"
Sure enough, Liuzi gave the same answer again...
Seeing Liu Zi no longer paying attention to him, Wu Fan wisely stopped asking questions and became curious about the food in the package.
Since receiving the package, he has not seen what is inside, and he is also a little curious about what kind of food can make Liuzi eat so attentively...
Putting his hand in, Wu Fan felt a softness and goosebumps all over his body. If he hadn't known it beforehand, he would have thought he had touched some kind of worm.
After carefully picking it out and taking a look, Wu Fan suddenly realized that this long and thin thing was just a fungus...
Wu Fan tried to taste it briefly, only to feel a tender and soft taste exploding in his mouth. He couldn't help but imitate Liu Zi and swallowed it in one mouthful.
"The Red Ant King said that he had offended the Demon King of the Flower Umbrella Road. Could it be because of these things..." Wu Fan couldn't help but wonder while eating.
…
The wind and sand in front of us are getting stronger and stronger, almost connecting the sky and the earth here. But Wu Fan was not impatient and was counting the time by tapping his fingers.
According to the explanation of the Red Ant King, this place is called Yellow Turban Valley, which was named because of the harsh environment.
Although the strong wind here comes violently, it goes away suddenly and will completely dissipate by the time the sun rises.
Originally, according to Wu Fan's speed, they shouldn't encounter strong winds when they arrived here. It was just because Liuzi was walking too fast that he came close before the strong wind had dispersed...
Liuzi originally wanted to use his earth escape ability to open a way, but after the red ant king revealed his territory, it was best not to reveal his ability at will, in case some monsters with ulterior motives suspected that they had attempts to compete for the position of the monster king. If there are obstacles on the way...the former can only be given up temporarily.
Although Wu Fan still has a few little ghosts around him, even if there are monsters that are worried about him, they will not become a threat. But after all, it’s better to do less than to do more. It’s better to keep a low profile when you go out. After all, what you really want to deal with is the threat of the Black Peng King!
After eating several mushrooms in a row, Wu Fan felt an unprecedented sense of energy. It seemed that the mushrooms really had miraculous effects like the Red Ant King said, and could really affect his soul.
Suddenly, the wind stopped.
The sky that was yellow and sandy just a moment ago suddenly became clear in just a short moment, revealing the original appearance of this place.
According to the guidance of the Red Ant King, Wu Fan should have gone all the way to the right along the Yellow Turban Valley, but he had already made up his mind to go towards the center of the river.
Opening his mouth, Wu Fan originally wanted to remind Liu Zi, but when he opened his mouth, he shook his head and walked away.
…
Whether it's from the map or from the description given by the Red Ant King, the Yellow Turban Valley doesn't have much scope.
But Wu Fan and Liu Zi had been walking in the thin line of sky under the deep valley for more than half an hour, but they still couldn't see the end.
"waste time!"
The six sons became more and more tired as they walked. They casually formed an "earth raft" under their feet, and then "rided the wind and waves", gaining a few feet of distance in just an instant.
"Wait!" Wu Fan frowned and shouted loudly, his voice unable to dissipate for a long time.
"What? But you want me to give you a ride?" Although Liu Zi was impatient, he still stopped.
"Liu Zi! Stop the magic!" For some reason, Wu Fan always felt that something was wrong, and his tone became solemn.
"What a fuss." Liuzi looked back and forth, but found no danger, and said coldly: "Go slowly, I don't want to care about you."
With that said, Liu Zi drove the earth raft into a black spot like an arrow leaving the string.
"Am I really overly concerned?" Just now, Wu Fan felt an inexplicable flutter in his heart. This feeling was exactly the same as before every time he encountered danger.
Although his Eye of the Future has not yet recovered, this influence is reflected in his soul.
"You two follow me secretly, remember, don't be discovered!" Wu Fan opened the ghost door in his palm again and summoned the two little ghosts.
Then I saw two thumb-sized black shadows jumping out, one on the left and one on the right disappearing into the shadows on both sides of the valley.
…
"Boss! He...he's out again!" In the valley wall, a gray shadow hurried over.
"Coming out? Who's coming out?" On the steps was a fat-headed guy with big ears and narrow eyes. He burped drunkenly.
"It's the guy who blinded one of Boss Tang's eyes as I said before!" The gray shadow sounded anxious.
"Oh...what!" The guy with narrowed eyes recovered, but he was still not quite sober. "Tell me again, what's going on?"
"Boss! I heard that the kid stabbed Mr. Tang blind and caused trouble, and then chased Mr. Tang into the territory of the Red Ant King... Just now he had left the territory of the Red Ant King and came to us. !" The gray shadow said intermittently.
The fat guy with big ears and squinting eyes shook his body, and the exposed fat was retracted into his clothes. It was really amazing!
He loosened his white nails, put down the wine bottle and stood up. The disbelief on his face covered the gloss: "You said... he entered the territory of the Red Ant King, are you sure?"
"This is what I saw with my own eyes. I don't dare to lie!" Gray Shadow nodded repeatedly, and then asked: "Boss! Could this guy... be a member of the Red Ant King?".
"Impossible! The Red Ant King never lets his subordinates cause trouble when he is not at home!"
"That's true... but you don't know something, boss. When I was lurking there, I happened to see the Red Ant King returning from the Flower Umbrella Path, but I just didn't interfere!"
"What!"
