The sky was still bright, Wei Shiqi and his party turned back to Shitai, which surprised Jiu Qiansui. Judging from their expressions, they did not look like they were attacked halfway. He took the time to ask Xuanyuan Qing, who shook his head with a smile and spoke in a very polite tone. When he was about to interrogate Guo Li, he stretched out his hand to stop him. After more than half an hour, Demon Emperor Luo Xie called Jiu Qiansui away, unfolded a roll of flexible tree bark, and drew a simple map on it. The starting point was the stone platform where they temporarily settled, making a circle, and the end point was Tiancheng. I made a cross on the stone "Eternal Life Village" and circled it along the way, marking several important places. Some are the hunting grounds of the Shangqi tribe, and some are places haunted by ghosts and evil spirits, which are extremely rare.
Luo Lai waited for him to take a closer look and told him that Miluo Sect Leader had already established contact with the patrolling Guo Zhou and decided to stay at the "Eighteen Pans" hunting ground to deal with the Guo clan. He asked him to take care of things and prepare to leave for the "Eternal Life Village" ", meeting Luo Ting and She Sanniang on the way. Jiu Qiansui felt a thump in his heart. The Demon Emperor and the Miluo Sect Leader decided to part ways, or in other words, to open up a new world for each other instead of working together. This was expected. The only thing that surprised him was that the breakup came so quickly. So fast.
Luo Xie glanced at him and said: "The situation in the 'Eternal Life Village' is complicated. It is said that the previous generation of ascended demons are still alive and well. There are also powerful people in the rest of the lower realms. Those who can survive the strangulation of the seven upper clans are all from the upper ones." It’s a good thing that Master Miluo doesn’t go to the ‘Eternal Life Village’. He kills too hard. It’s better to use this knife to deal with the ghosts in this world, and don’t irritate potential allies.”
Nine Thousand Years Old suddenly realized that, among other things, Master Miluo and Ancestor Tianhu had already forged a feud. If they really met in the "Eternal Life Village" and fought, wouldn't it arouse public outrage and only increase internal strife? For him to stay at the "Eighteen Pans" hunting ground to hold off the Guo clan is the best way to benefit both parties. The Demon Emperor will not fail to see this.
He probed: "What about Master Xuanyuan?"
Luo Lai said: "I have talked with the Miluo Sect Master. Xuanyuan's head is staying in the 'Eighteen Pans' and is temporarily borrowing from She Sanniang. She has a 'Tongxin Lock' in her hand, which can still communicate with each other even though they are thousands of miles apart. What accident really happened?" , there may also be a way out.”
The two adults had made a thorough plan, even taking the "Concentric Lock and Key" into consideration. Nine Thousand Years Old would naturally follow suit and would not raise any objections. However, deep down in his heart, he still hoped to stay in the "Eighteen Pans" hunting ground instead of going to the "Eighteen Pans" hunting ground. "Eternal Life Village" and a group of "powerful people" from the lower world are in intrigues. He followed the Demon Emperor and risked his life to come to the Ghost Realm. His real purpose was to prolong his life. It didn't matter even if he was a tortoise. Compared with the "Eternal Life Village", the "Eighteen Pans" may not be safer, but he vaguely felt that it was possible. With Wei Shiqi here, no matter how unstable things are, they will be safe.
This treasonous idea was suppressed by him in the depths of the sea of consciousness, and he would never allow it to be revealed.
While avoiding the pursuit of ghosts, She Sanniang and Luo Ting made a circuitous approach to the "Eighteen Pans" hunting ground. The return journey was long and the crises were endless. It was still far away. Xuanyuan Qing sent a message to "Fuqin" through "burning incense" and made an agreement with She Sanniang halfway. The meeting place was chosen at the junction of the hunting grounds of the Cang Clan and the Xueli Clan, a "three no matter" zone. There is no such thing as "Three No Matters" in the Immortal City and Demon Realm. Wei Shiqi casually mentioned that the sky, the earth, and people are the "Three No Matters". Everyone thought it was far-fetched, but these trivial details could not be taken seriously.
Regardless, the more I think about this statement, the more interesting it becomes.
Demon Emperor Luo Xie said goodbye to Wei Shiqi, and left for the "Eternal Life Village" with Nine Thousand Years Old. Half a day after the two left, the hunting ground patrolman Guo Zhou controlled a four-clawed lizard came to visit him and presented him with a bag of spiritual herbs. There are a lot of fruit rhizomes, and the smell is mixed together, which is a bit pungent. Seeing that the other party accepted the medicine bag, he seemed quite satisfied and did not make any other demands. Guo Zhou relaxed slightly and said that the cave had been properly prepared and cleaned, and asked Mr. Wei to send someone to check for any leaks.
Wei Shiqi said nonchalantly: "Thank you for your troubles, Guardsman Guo. There is nothing to inspect. It is a hundred times better than the cave opened on this stone platform!" He called Li Yihe and others and boarded the "Tongyou Baoji". Xuanyuan Qing supported the bamboo pole, and Guo Zhou led the way on the cliff, avoiding strange rocks and cliffs, breaking through the clouds and fog, and wandering in twists and turns.
The Great Rift Valley seems to have no end, going up thousands of feet, like a wet cliff. Guo Zhou stopped the four-clawed lizard and pushed aside a dense vine, revealing a wide crack with an outline like a giant eye, spanning more than ten feet, with a narrow middle at both ends. It's wide, and the pupil is the entrance to the cave. It's so dark that you can't see the bottom.
Guo Zhou tied the four-clawed lizard to the stone pillar and led the way first, saying: "This place is called 'Giant's Eye'. There used to be a 'Netherworld Well' deep in the cave, which was very beneficial to practice. In the early years, the elders of the Guo clan would visit from time to time. This seal absorbs the power of the underworld in the well. It was plucked out a hundred years ago and has been abandoned since then. Guo Zhou has arranged for people to clean it carefully. If there is anything missing, I hope Mr. Wei will take care of it."
Guo Zhou flicked his sleeves, and the pearls on the cave wall gradually lit up. The green light was blurred, and he felt like weeping. Wei Shiqi nodded slightly, and stepped into the "Giant Eye" with Li Yihe. Xuanyuan Qing put away the "Tongyou Baoji" and talked with Guo Li followed closely behind. The cave is not big, but it is clean and tidy. It has a hall, a quiet room, an alchemy room, a medicine garden, and an animal stable. "Although the sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs", which is very suitable for Wei Shiqi's wishes. He immediately decided to stay here and asked Guo Li if he would stay in the "Giant's Eye" or go with Guo Zhou.
Without waiting for her reply, Guo Zhou said first, "Guo Li'er has become a thorn in Elder Baohu's side. Only by staying here and asking Mr. Wei to protect him can he have a chance of survival." Guo Li shuddered when he heard this and paused. Remembering Guo Baohu's cruelty and ruthlessness, he was a little at a loss. It would be fine if Elder Baohu didn't come back. Once he came back, the first thing he would do would be to eradicate himself and erase the stain. She felt scared, wronged, and angry. It was not her fault!
Wei Shiqi glanced at her and nodded in agreement. It was a trivial matter that could be done with just a little effort, so he could return a favor to Guo Zhou. Having such a "native" messenger around would save him a lot of trouble. Guo Zhou bowed solemnly, looked at Guo Li for a moment, looked complicated, sighed secretly, and left.
The vines outside the "Giant's Eye" hung low, and the clouds covered the fog. Wei Shiqi handed the grains of grain to Xuanyuan Qing, and took Li Yihe to the quiet room to rest. After arriving in the Ghost Realm for a few days, changes occurred one after another. It was only then that I found a place to stay and settled down for the time being. It was much smoother than expected. Demon Emperor Luo Lai has blocked a lot of troubles for him. The situation in "Eternal Life Village" is complicated, and it is more secure for him to handle it. What kind of effect this move can play will be known in the future. There is no need to worry about him now. The top priority is Li Yihe. After she regained her strength, she could begin to worship and refine the Miluo Town Divine Seal.
He took out the sesame seeds from the medicine bag, identified them a little, put them into the "Hundred Ghosts Tuimo Cauldron", and concentrated on refining the elixir. Li Yihe sat in the corner, holding his knees with his hands, looking at him dreamily. All the future appeared in front of his eyes, and his heart was desolate and unwilling, but he did not regret it at all.
