"Even I don't know where I'm going, so why are you following me? Maybe one day you encounter danger and lose your life, so you'd better go back and forth from where you are!"
Hei Lu hesitated after hearing Bu Xiaotian's words, tilting his head as if thinking about Bu Xiaotian's words.
Bu Xiaotian ignored the black donkey and turned around to continue moving forward. Unexpectedly, his clothes were pulled again after a few steps. Bu Xiaotian had to turn around again and said:
"Are you really going to follow me? Aren't you afraid of the danger of following me?"
Black Donkey had obviously thought about it carefully and nodded without hesitation this time.
"But you eat too much, I'm afraid I won't be able to feed you?"
Seeing that Bu Xiaotian still didn't want to take him with him, Hei Donkey became anxious, kept humming, and lowered his head to push Bu Xiaotian onto his back.
"Are you going to carry me on your back?"
Bu Xiaotian asked.
"uh-huh--"
The black donkey nodded.
"Okay then, I'll just have more legs to go on the road later!"
Bu Xiaotian said and really got on the donkey's back.
As soon as he sat on the donkey's back, Bu Xiaotian noticed the difference. Although the donkey ran very fast, sitting on its back actually felt very stable and did not feel bumpy at all. It was like sitting on a stationary stationary Same on the futon.
In this way, one person and one donkey are traveling together. Although it is not as fast as Bu Xiaotian flying alone with a sword, it is much faster than ordinary people walking.
And the donkey seemed to have remembered Bu Xiaotian's words about it eating too much. If Bu Xiaotian didn't have anything to feed it, it would go to the nearby woods to find food by itself when it was time to rest.
Sometimes it even brought something back to Bu Xiaotian, sometimes it was a wild beast, sometimes it was a medicinal plant, and the medicinal materials it brought back were all very good medicinal materials, which made Bu Xiaotian look at this guy with admiration.
Passing through some small towns on the way, Bu Xiaotian took out some relatively common medicinal materials brought back by Black Donkey and sold them to the local pharmacy in exchange for some money.
Those precious ones were made into elixirs and kept away for emergencies.
…
More than half a month later, on the third day of March, a man and a donkey arrived outside Liaozhou City, a large city in the northeast.
Bu Xiaotian actually had no special purpose in coming to Liaozhou City. He just got a good tiger skin the day he met the black donkey.
One day when passing through a small town, I wanted to find a fur workshop to process the tiger skin and make clothes.
But who would have thought that after Bu Xiaotian gave the tiger skin to the workshop owner to look at, the boss shook his head and said that this tiger skin was the best tiger skin he had ever seen in his life. Such a good thing was wasted.
As far as he knew, only his master could make such fine furs, and his master was far away in Liaozhou City, thousands of miles away in the northeast.
So Bu Xiaotian took Hei Donkey and walked along the way to Liaozhou City. Apart from encountering a few bandits who blocked the road, nothing special happened.
As for the matter where his senior brother asked him to pay attention to the movements of the Demon Cult before going down the mountain, although he paid attention, he found no trace of the Demon Cult's monsters.
Seeing the tall Liaozhou city wall appearing in front of them, all those who were on the way speeded up their pace unconsciously.
The closer to the city gate, the more people around, naturally more people noticed Bu Xiaotian riding a black donkey.
After all, no matter who sees a young man with an extraordinary temperament riding a black donkey, he can't help but take a second look.
The huge city wall seemed to be right in front of us, but it still took two or three quarters of an hour for Bu Xiaotian to ride the black donkey and actually reach the bottom of the city wall.
Bu Xiaotian looked up at the city wall that was dozens of feet high in front of him, and was amazed in his heart.
Before today, the largest city he had ever seen was Yuyang City south of the Xuyun Mountains, but Yuyang City was more than 15% smaller than the magnificent city in front of him.
The huge city gate is five feet high and three feet wide. It is made of thick and solid ironwood. Just opening and closing the city gate may require dozens of people to work together. Every brick in the city wall is not an adobe brick. Instead, it is hewn from Qinggang rock.
The entire city wall is three feet thick, and its sturdiness can be imagined.
Above the city gate are several large characters - Liaozhou City!
The whole city gave Bu Xiaotian only one feeling - it was indestructible!
Just when Bu Xiaotian was marveling at the huge city in front of him, an old Taoist priest with an immortal style came to Bu Xiaotian and asked:
"Is this your first time coming to Liaozhou City, little brother?"
When Bu Xiaotian heard this, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the old Taoist priest who was speaking.
I saw this old Taoist priest wearing a dark green robe, with white beard and hair, and a few long strands of beard fluttering under his chin. He looked quite otherworldly.
It's just that the old Taoist priest is holding a tall cloth sail in his hand and has a message on it that says "tell fortunes, catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, nine taels of silver per person", so people can see that the words "charlatan" must have flashed in his mind.
"Exactly, this is my first time coming to Liaozhou City. I have never seen such a magnificent city before, which made the Taoist priest laugh!"
Although the old Taoist priest looked like he was dressed like a charlatan, Bu Xiaotian still bowed his hands and bowed without any sign of contempt.
"Haha, you are such a good young man."
Seeing Bu Xiaotian's polite appearance, the old Taoist priest smiled and nodded. He really looked like a Taoist master. He held his hand on his long beard and said:
"Pindao has traveled all over the world throughout his life and has seen countless cities.
For example, I have been to Shuzhou City in the southwest, Shazhou City in the northwest, and Haizhou City in the southeast.
Each city has its own unique features, but when it comes to majesty and solidity, this Liaozhou city is indeed the best in the world. Everyone is inevitably a little shocked when they see such a big city for the first time, and there is nothing to laugh at. "
Hearing what the old Taoist said, Bu Xiaotian felt in awe.
The big cities that Lao Dao just mentioned are the first-class big cities in the world. Even the nearest Shazhou City is thousands of miles away from here. It is simply delusional for ordinary people to visit these big cities.
What's more, the road along the way is not a smooth one, not to mention the steep terrain in some places. There are also many poisonous insects and beasts entrenched, and there are even many places where demons are causing trouble. Even practitioners may not be able to deal with it.
If what the old Taoist said is true, then he is definitely not as simple as he seems.
"Dare you ask the senior for his honorable title?"
Bu Xiaotian was more respectful.
"Haha, what do you mean by respecting or not respecting me? My name is Tianji. God knows the things in this world. You don't know and I know!"
Although the old Taoist priest said something modest, the pretentious look on his face seemed to be telling Bu Xiaotian:
"I am an expert! I am an expert!"
Bu Xiaotian didn't know for a while whether the old Taoist priest was really powerful or pretending to be powerful, and he didn't dwell on it, and then asked:
"It turns out to be Senior Tianji. I see that the city wall in Liaozhou is several times taller than the walls in other places. I wonder if Senior can give me some advice?"
"Haha, you have asked the right person! No one in this world can answer your question except me."
Seeing that Bu Xiaotian did not doubt himself, the old Taoist priest showed a sly smile in his eyes and said:
"This starts from ancient times. At that time, the world first opened, demons danced wildly, and the human race was just an inconspicuous tribe among all races.
This northeastern land is controlled by the grassland barbarians. The human race has low power and can only survive humiliation. However, the grassland barbarians are cruel and easy to kill, and they like to slaughter weak human tribes the most.
Just when the human race was about to be slaughtered, a god-given hero appeared in a small tribe. He led the remaining human tribes in the northeast to unite and began to resist the grassland barbarians. "
“The prairie barbarians were extremely powerful and were once the undisputed kings on the grasslands. Even the most ferocious beasts were the objects of their enslavement.
After decades of arduous resistance, the human race finally had the strength to compete head-on with the grassland barbarians.
But the grassland barbarians at that time were still unmatched. In order to suppress the human race, the five barbarian tribes used all their strength to fight against the human tribes in the barbarian holy mountain. "
Seeing Bu Xiaotian's confused look upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest explained:
"The five major barbarian tribes are the Liling tribe who are good at brute force, the Wuling tribe that controls the weather, the Ghost Spirit tribe that can control ghosts and ghosts, the Plague Spirit tribe that specializes in diseases, and the Yuling tribe that drives poisonous insects and beasts. They have their own strengths, and when combined together, they are even more impeccable.”
“In the end, the human hero summoned hundreds of warriors from each tribe, fought with the strongest priests and warriors among the five tribes, and finally defeated the prairie barbarians.
However, the price of victory was the collapse of the barbarian holy mountain. Thousands of human warriors and grassland barbarian elites almost perished together. Only the hero survived.
He led the remaining humans to drive the greatly weakened barbarians deep into the grassland. "
"Because he was worried about the comeback of the barbarians, he led the human tribe to spend hundreds of years building an extremely tall city, using stones mined from the former barbarian holy mountains. The thousands of feet high barbarian holy mountains were destroyed by Razed to the ground.”
"What's the name of that human hero?"
Bu Xiaotian was full of respect for the human hero who saved the Northeast, and he wanted to know his name.
"His name is, Liao!
In order to remember this hero who sacrificed everything for the human race, people named this giant city after him. "
The old Taoist priest's tone was also full of emotion.
"Saved everything?"
Bu Xiaotian didn't understand what the old Taoist said.
"No one knows what happened in the battle on the Barbarian Holy Mountain. At the moment when the giant city was finally built, Liao stood at the top of the city and looked at the grassland in the distance, which turned into a ball of white light and melted into the entire city.
Only then did people realize that Liao had long died in the war like other human warriors.
He had made great contributions to the human race and could have become a god after his death, but he could not let go of the human race at that time and gave up the opportunity to become a god. He stayed in the world as a war spirit and eventually became the war spirit of the entire giant city. From then on, he fought with the human race. The giant city has become one, and will not enter reincarnation or reincarnation. It will forever protect the human race in the giant city!
Legend has it that one day when the human race in Liaozhou City faced the crisis of annihilation, Liao Hui woke up and fought for the human race again! "
"Liao Zhen is a great hero!"
Bu Xiaotian sighed.
"yes!"
The old Taoist priest agreed.
"Then how did you, old man, know such secrets?"
After hearing this story for a long time, Bu Xiaotian was a little curious about how the old Taoist priest knew it.
"Hey, I know the heaven above, the earth below, and all the secrets of heaven. How many things in this world do I not know?"
The old Taoist priest chuckled and regained his inscrutable look:
"It is fate that you and I meet today. How about I give you a hexagram and only take five taels of silver from you?"
"Well you old liar, I finally found you!"
Before Bu Xiaotian could speak, an extremely angry voice came from behind.
