As soon as he entered the cave, Liangchen felt something change before his eyes, and his eyes suddenly became clear.

Without the oppressive poisonous miasma surrounding them, the two of them suddenly felt much more comfortable.

The space in the cave is not large, but it is not cramped either.

There is a long table and a few wicker chairs placed in the back. Thick animal bones and nameless animal skins are hung on the wall. Other than that, there are no other decorations, making it look extremely simple.

Standing at the very back was a black-robed old woman, preparing some kind of potion against the various bottles and jars on the table, muttering a few strange spells while mixing it.

The black-robed mother-in-law is covered in necklaces, belts, and bracelets made of monster bones. Her hands are as dry as tree bark, her face is wrinkled like spider webs, and her pair of cloudy eyes have a strange black color.

Seeing several people entering, she stopped what she was doing, glanced at Yuan Lintian, and a layer of tears appeared in her cloudy eyes:

"You've grown so big in a flash! The expression is exactly the same as before!" The black-robed mother-in-law murmured to herself, and then came up to meet him.

"Grandma Cao has met the young master!" Grandma Cao slowly knelt down and saluted solemnly.

"Get up." Seeing that she was so old and sounded like she had seen him before, Yuan Lintian quickly went up and stretched out his hand to help her up.

"Young master, sit here." Grandma Cao stood up tremblingly. She didn't know whether it was because of her old age or because she couldn't hide her excitement. She took a wicker chair and handed it to her.

Watching Yuan Lintian sit down, Granny Cao kept staring at him and never moved an inch.

"When I was young, it was said that the young master was a greedy wolf descending to the earth, the master of killing, and the star of solitary evil. Now the rumors are mostly true!" Grandma Cao murmured to herself, her voice was not loud, but everyone in the room could hear it clearly. .

Yuan Lintian's expression suddenly changed, and he wanted to scold her, but suddenly realized that what she said was true, and he couldn't refute it!

If he were a child, he would still be able to refute a few words and even regard them as the lies of the wandering monk.

But now that all his relatives have left him, his words have truly come true, fulfilling the prophecy of the Gusha Star.

His face turned green and white, but in the end he suppressed his displeasure and said:

"Grandma Cao saw me when I was a child? Why don't I have any impression?"

"At that time, I went to Lingxing Pavilion several times with the three priests, and I met the young master from a distance. At that time, the young master had an expression of being repulsive. It is normal that he had no impression." Granny Cao replied.

"I see." Yuan Lintian looked astonished and asked again: "The Snake Forest is the largest hidden stake in this area, how come there are only a few of you?"

"Alas~ Young Master, there were originally nearly a hundred people who fled here. Unfortunately, after decades of poisonous miasma and several encirclements and suppressions by the Three Kings, there are only about twenty people who survived." Granny Cao Said with a sigh.

"It's like this! Where are those people?" Yuan Lintian felt a little sad when he heard this, and asked again.

"In order to prevent us from being discovered by the three kings, we are also divided into several groups and hiding in various places in the Snake Forest. I have already informed the others, and they must be here soon." Granny Cao replied.

When Liangchen heard this, he immediately felt a little sad. He had been hiding in this ghost place for decades and was still on tenterhooks all the time. It was simply an inhuman life!

"No wonder these people are all covered in scars." Liangchen thought in his mind.

While several people were talking, there was a knock on the door, and the man with the missing ear repeatedly pointed at the wall as seven or eight people walked in.

"See Young Master!"

"Congratulations, young master, for returning to the witchcraft territory!" Several people saluted with joy.

After several waves of twos and threes, the room was already full of people.

More than twenty people were all pale and bloodless, with all kinds of strange scars all over their bodies.

But when they saw the young master coming back, they seemed to see hope, and a blush finally appeared on their faces.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, everyone also saw the stranger next to the young master. Everyone tried their best to explore his realm, but they still found nothing.

"This is Master Shengshou!" Yuan Lintian introduced again.

As soon as everyone heard this, their expressions changed and they were about to prostrate themselves. When Liangchen Void lifted up, they felt a huge force coming towards them. Everyone could no longer prostrate themselves, and a trace of shock suddenly appeared on their faces!

"You're welcome, I'm not from Wujiang, so I don't need to perform such a grand ceremony." When Liangchen saw them bowing down and bowing down, he felt a little cumbersome and strange.

Everyone stood up after hearing the sound, and looked at Liangchen with a little more respect in their eyes. While they were talking, they heard about Sheng Shou's story of killing the eighth-level demon king, and there was a burst of noise. Then they looked at him with a little more awe.

"Thank you for your hard work over the years." Yuan Lintian glanced around, and the discussion suddenly became quieter.

"Can Granny Cao please introduce the current situation in Wujiang?"

Granny Cao walked forward and was about to report. She looked at Liangchen and hesitated to speak.

"He is a holy guardian, not an outsider, even if he says so." Yuan Lintian said.

When Liangchen saw her expression, he said directly without waiting for her to speak: "I'm really tired after months of running around. Have you cleaned the room? I want to take a rest!"

"That's it... take Master Shengshou to rest." Yuan Lintian heard Liangchen's intention and nodded with a smile.

One man led Liangchen out of the tree hole and continued to move deeper into the forest. After about half a tea, he arrived in front of an ancient tree. The man repeatedly tapped somewhere on the trunk of the tree. Then he pushed again, and a tree hole appeared. out.

"Master Shengshou, please rest, my subordinates will retire."

Liangchen nodded and flew in. He saw a slightly smaller room with a table, a bed and two chairs.

He took out a set of formation flags and simply arranged them around, then used his spiritual power to carefully check to make sure there were no hidden dangers, and then lay down on the bed.

After talking with Yuan Lintian for so long, I also have a brief understanding of Wujiang.

The four kings of Wujiang are headed by the Yuan family.

The Yuan family is good at all kinds of insect poison and poisonous poison; the Yue family is good at infant poison and corpse poison; the Ting family has many women and is good at flower poison and grass poison; the Zhi family is the most mysterious and complicated, with some taboo black witchcraft, paper figurines He has dabbled in head-lowering techniques.

At that time, the three families had planned for a long time and then suddenly launched a siege. The Yuan family was caught off guard and retreated steadily. In the end, the entire army was almost wiped out.

The remaining tribesmen either fled to other places, or lived an elusive existence in various dangerous places in Wujiang.

I heard Yuan Lintian once said that there are hundreds of hidden piles, large and small, but the place we visited today was the largest one with a radius of thousands of miles. Unexpectedly, there were only more than twenty people left.

"If other hidden piles are in the same situation, how many people are there in total?"

"With this little power, it is simply wishful thinking to counterattack the Three Kings and retake the Witch Territory!"

Liangchen weighed the situation in his mind, and after a moment he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. After all, these were the things Yuan Lintian had to think about.

She could only help him participate in the Soul Selection Sacrifice, then defeat his opponent, and then use his hidden power to leave Wujiang.

As for other subsequent problems, they are beyond his control.

Thinking of this, he stood up and sat on the chair. He took out several storage bags of various styles and placed them on the table.
