The mist and rain are lingering, and the dull rainy day seems to reflect sadness and despair.
In the huge stone bamboo house in Snake Valley, the firewood was damp. Guo Zhen started a fire to cook and was smoked by the fireworks. She coughed and shed tears. She didn't know whether it was the smoke or the sadness. Maybe it was because it was too hard to live alone in this barren mountain, or maybe it was because her husband was late. After returning home, I felt more and more uneasy, and my tears were like broken beads.
Looking back on Yang Ning's decision to leave, I always felt that I was dragging him down.
"Husband, I am sorry for you..."
Warm tears streaked across his cheeks, and they couldn't be wiped away no matter how hard he wiped them away. If time could go back, he would hold him back no matter what and wouldn't let him go. As time went by, he felt more and more desperate.
If Yang Ning doesn't come back in a few days, Guo Zhen will choose to spend the rest of her life looking for him in the underworld.
"Ahem..."
The rain was dull and the smoke was billowing from the damp dry wood.
Guo Zhen, who was wiping her tears, squatted in front of the bonfire and sobbed. When she looked up, she suddenly saw a blurry figure in the distance through her tears. She quickly wiped her tears, but the thick smoke obscured her vision and made it difficult to see clearly. She smiled sadly, thinking that she had gone too far. Longing creates hallucinations.
The breeze blew and the thick smoke moved to the other side. Guo Zhen, with tears in her eyes, saw a bearded man appearing at the gate of the fence courtyard. It was Yang Ning...
"Husband..."
"Jen'er..."
Guo Zhen stood up suddenly, knocked over the iron pot and stumbled towards Yang Ning. Yang Ning stepped forward and hugged her hard, and the two hugged each other tightly. Guo Zhen finally realized that it was not a dream, but it was all true. Yang Ning was really back. The fear and fear that she had felt for many days disappeared. Tsukuru burst into tears, as if the two of them were not monks, just an ordinary couple.
In the giant stone bamboo house, the reunited couple finally managed to see the moonlight as the clouds cleared, and the gentle rain became gentle and delicate.
Yang Ning brought back the Golden Thread Grass and immediately treated Guo Zhen after refining it.
Everything is going in the best direction. The only thing that worries the two is that Bai Yu has not come back yet. Thinking back to the danger at that time, Yang Ning is very worried.
Dark clouds cover the forest and mountains, and lightning flashes from time to time in the dark sky in the distance, instantly illuminating the forest and the dark clouds and then quickly calming down.
If Bai Yu doesn't come back yet, Yang Ning plans to go find her after recovering from her injuries.
Before Yang Ning could go out, Bai Yu came back...
Hiding under the water for days, my body temperature was low, which made me look pale, and the water soaked me even whiter and tenderer. I ate fish every day and my mouth was full of fishy smell. I was constantly switching between fog and lakes and streams, but I was afraid of being followed and even went around in a big circle. Finally, before returning, I ran to Jiuli Village for a walk.
Yang Ning and Guo Zhen were sitting in front of the campfire cooking. When they looked up, they saw Bai Yu pushing open the fence gate and walking in.
"Great! I knew you would come back safely~"
The exhausted Bai Yu shrugged, walked to the campfire, sat down, picked up a piece of scone and stuffed it into his mouth. He was too tired to say anything. He had to eat well before going to bed so that he could sleep well.
The couple watched helplessly as Bai Yu ate all the food, walked into the bamboo house and lay down on the bed to fall asleep.
During deep sleep, my breathing slows down and my heartbeat slows down. I just hold a few pieces of gold in my arms before falling asleep, as if having gold and sparkling gems can help me sleep.
This sleep lasted three days and three nights...
…………
The long sleep relieved the physical and mental fatigue of the past few days.
I stretched myself out of bed, drank some water to rinse my mouth, and randomly threw a little cleaning spell on my face. Instantly, the whole snake became radiant, and even the air became much fresher.
There was a piece of animal meat placed beside the campfire, possibly the prey of Yang Ning, whose surname was now Bai.
Light the fire, tear the animal meat into strips, skewer it with bamboo sticks, and grill it on the fire. The outside will be charred and the inside will be tender. When it is sizzling and oily, squeeze the juice of the sour fruit and pour it on the meat. Sprinkle some salt on it. Take a bite and have an endless aftertaste...
Tired from running around all the time, Bai Yu decided not to step into the depths of the forest unless nothing happened.
Whoever wants to go can go, anyway, snakes will not go, ferocious beasts are everywhere, high-level monsters are everywhere, and the depths of the Southern Wilderness are scary every step of the way. It is pure luck to come back. The more you know about the world of monsters, the more you can feel it. Despite the dangers of the mountains, it would be nice to have barbecue at home. Even the weather has improved.
By the way...where did those couple go?
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.
Yang Ning escorted Guo Zhen back to the Big Stone Bamboo House. It could be seen that Guo Zhen's physical condition had improved significantly. It was not like before that she would cough and sleep all day long after walking a few steps. Even her declining cultivation level began to improve slightly.
But Yang Ning seemed to have discovered something.
"Yu, there's someone fighting on the other side of the mountain. I'll go take a look, so I don't get attacked by the bad guys."
"Okay, be safe."
Yang Ning nodded and flew away.
Bai Yu suddenly felt that as the owner of the territory, he should go and have a look, so he ate up the barbecue and flew away.
Snake Valley is very fragile, and you need to be careful when monks and monsters appear nearby. Once someone fights, it may cause great harm to the reproduction of snakes. Snake eggs and young snakes are very fragile and cannot withstand any damage. In Bai Yu's eyes, no matter human beings, Or are the other monsters and beasts all foreigners, with only snakes as their kind, and they have the responsibility to protect the weaker ones?
The edge of the Southern Wilderness is very chaotic.
On the edge of Shiwanda Mountain, in addition to the Jiuli people, there are also people from the Central Plains who come to hunt for treasures and various monsters in the forest. Sparks fly between the three parties from time to time. Among them, the monsters are relatively scattered because they are unorganized. They are characterized by their large numbers and elusive appearance. Jiuli Various mysterious witchcrafts emerge in endlessly. The monks from the Central Plains use magic pills to become powerful in combat. The three parties each show their magical powers in the marginal areas.
As the saying goes, people die for wealth and birds die for food. Ever since the demon kings ordered the expulsion of the monks from the Central Plains, the prices of various elixirs have been rising. Driven by huge profits, more monks from the Central Plains came to the Southern Wilderness.
Bai Yu killed many humans during the days when he was on the run and lurking, and the various healing elixirs he obtained were very useful for wound recovery.
The Central Plains monks are best at refining various materials, elixirs, monster fur, bones and even blood, as well as various ores, all of which are their targets. Among them, monster skin, scales, armor, bones and blood are particularly valuable.
Of course, when you are a hunter, you must also be mentally prepared to be treated as prey. There are countless monks from the Central Plains who have died in Shiwanda Mountain.
Over the mountains, I saw from a distance four foundation-building monks dressed in Central Plains costumes and a few monster monkeys fighting inextricably. The monks had many magic weapons with high attack power. The monster monkeys occupied the advantageous location and scurried around in the forest while they were not paying attention. The sneak attack beforehand, the magic weapons flying around and the shining spells look good.
In fact, the four of them were just dealing with a demon monkey at first, and after a long fight, the injured demon monkey screamed and attracted a group of monkeys. The demon monkeys, who lived in a family style, fought against the monks with the same hatred.
In the past, many monks had the idea of those monster monkeys, but in the end they had to give up because of the size of the other party's family.
There were five or six demon monkeys in the foundation-building period, as well as a dozen or so little monkey demons that had just transformed. Their squeaking and screaming caused a group of nearby monkeys to scream, as if they had stabbed the monkey nest and provoked a large group of monkey heads.
High-level monks are rare. In fact, the most common ones in the cultivation world are monks in the Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage.
For the sake of resources, most people would choose to go to Shiwanda Mountain with a group to try their luck. Maybe they can break through after encountering the elixir.
