【343】Undercurrent

After receiving help from experts, Uncle Zhao and others had no worries and immediately became busy.

In the evening, more than a dozen people pulled the heavy convoy back to the valley, which immediately attracted cheers from everyone in the valley. When a group of young and strong people revealed today's encounter in vivid detail and learned that the terrifying monsters had retreated, they only had to hold on for a while, and when the monsters in the collapsed areas were cleaned up, everything could return to their original stable life.

Everyone's spirits were immediately excited, and the restless people's hearts were calm.

In addition, the food returned by Uncle Zhao and others was enough for them to support another half a month and resolve the difficulties of the people. People's hearts were filled with hope. Even if they would still face a difficult situation in the future, at least they had passed the current difficulties safely.

The difficulties faced by the people in the valley were not individual.

From south of Zhongzhou, people who were helped by righteous disciples to move to other places and escaped the disaster of beasts and monsters, most of them encountered the dilemma of scarcity of supplies. Such a dilemma was the more severe the gathering point. More than a dozen young and strong people in the valley could get back the food that had overcome the difficulties, but put it elsewhere but it was just a drop in the bucket!

The death threat brought by beast monsters cannot stop people from seeking a way out.

But not every adventurer can avoid the beast monster with good luck, or encounter the help of the righteous disciples. Many people come out of their hiding place, and the food they get by chance attracts more people to take risks, and thus encounter countless beast monsters who retreat to the south.

If it was just like this, it would not be the most difficult thing to get caught in the beast's mouth. Some people were extremely lucky to escape the disaster and returned to their hiding place in panic, but they attracted the attention of the beast monsters, and instead exposed the gathering place to the monsters, causing all the people in the gathering place to fall into the underworld!

Without anyone's advocacy, the world has become more chaotic than the day when beasts and monsters are raging!

The difficult world makes nature face great challenges, and the burden of survival crushes everyone's shoulders. People who are as cold as walking corpses because of despair, people who compassionate the young and weak to give hope, and even people who commit evil deeds who break their hearts and fall into evil deeds, are everywhere.

It seems that the world has been abandoned by immortals and gods, and no one can see where the road ahead is!

Under such a turbulent situation, there have been a group of sneaky Taoists in the mountains with the largest number of people in the south of Zhongzhou.

The Taoists seemed to be no different from what they usually saw, and they recited scriptures, practiced methods, and gave talismans to everyone. Perhaps because Qingyun's disciples are also Taoist traditions, they showed that they often wore Taoist robes when they were in front of them, the people gathered in the place respected Taoists very much.

But this woman with a scattered face was extremely alert to them!

Just because a few days ago, her husband, the last reliance for her young children was to follow those Taoists and never return. She could not tell people, nor could she help her neighbors, relatives and friends, because they all disappeared overnight!

The people in her camp prayed for help, but others just thought she was crazy and ignored it.

Although there are many people in the camp, they do not support each other like the previous valleys. On the contrary, the food in the camp here is controlled by the rich and powerful families. Ordinary people have to be busy for a bite of food, and no one cares about a woman.

Hunger made her weak.

Even though she took the risk of leaving the shelter left by the immortal today and walked a distance outside the valley, she still couldn't find anything to fill her stomach. There were too many people in the valley, and everything that could be eaten around had long been collected and hidden.

The woman dragged her heavy steps back to her sluggish residence. The two men with strange eyes made her lose their composure for a moment. She drove them away like a crazy female leopard, roaring with angrily, and rushed back to her residence. A small figure ran out of the hay and threw herself into her arms.

At that moment, the woman was so happy that she almost burst into tears!

Her baby, that is the only child she cares about!

However, the little face said with extreme longing, and then punched her into the ice cellar: "Mom, I'm hungry-" In the silent night, the woman hugged her thin body tightly in her arms, and gently patted her back with her palms: "Sleep, you won't be hungry if you fall asleep."

The woman looked at the dark night through the simple gaps in her residence.

Suddenly, she seemed to feel something, and suddenly looked down and saw that her child had found something from somewhere to eat. The woman was startled and said in a hurry: "You, what are you eating? Spit it out, spit it out soon!" The child was so hungry that he was willing to vomit?

The woman had no choice but to squeeze his mouth open and pick out half of the things that she couldn't chew. After seeing it clearly, she was so scared that her face was bloodless!

That's a pill.

A pill obtained from the Taoist who gave talisman water!

This thing has long been circulating in the crowd, saying it is a magical elixir. Eating one can be worth four or five days of meals and you will no longer feel hungry. But the woman dared not use it because the ones she had seen taking this strange elixir disappeared silently in the end!

Including her neighbors and old relatives whom she knew also lost their traces after a night!

She didn't know why she still carried the pill on her body, but now she was swallowed by the child in her arms, and immediately aroused the shock in her heart and patted him on the back anxiously: "How can you eat this? It will kill you! Spit it out, spit it out soon!"

But what was swallowed into the child's stomach could actually be easily vomited?

Besides, the pill doesn’t need to be anything else, and it melts after entering the abdomen, making it impossible to induce vomiting. However, the child who kept calling for hunger showed a satisfied smile after swallowing the pill for a moment, and muttered: “Mom, the child is so comfortable when he is full!”

The night is silent.

The deep darkness swallowed all the light in the huddled residence.

In the darkness, the woman smiled bitterly and raised her hand to put half of the pill into her mouth. The strange feeling immediately fermented, and the cold and moist comfort spread in her body, and her empty abdomen gradually filled. The woman was filled with happiness after being filled with long-lost food, and a smile appeared on her face.

The next day's fatigue hit her and she fell asleep.

The next day.

The warm sunshine shines down, dispelling the mist in the valley.

About an hour after dawn, the two men who appeared yesterday sneaked closer to this place again. However, when they quietly looked into the cramped residence, they couldn't help but be stunned by the empty hay. The mother and son who could hardly hold on and had no relatives or reasons were no longer among them!

The two looked at each other, a little disappointed.

At first I thought the cautious woman had taken her child away early. But after waiting for two days and not seeing the mother and son again, they had to give up. A few days later, the place was occupied by a dirty old man, and the mother and son had long been forgotten by everyone.

No one would even think of who was originally living in this area, and would not care where they went.

——

Southern Xinjiang.

A strong wind suddenly blew in the Wuming Mountains, pressing the surrounding trees low, but a fairy boat surrounded by spiritual energy fell in the sky. The fairy boat stopped several meters above the ground, and then buzzed and shrank in the blink of an eye. Two tall and heroic figures appeared from it. One of them familiarly took the shrinking fairy boat and put it in the pocket the size of a secret bag on his waist.

These two people were Feng Yi and Qi Hao who were following the beast monsters all the way south.

The immortal boat was a "Mountain Boat" taken from Chaoyang Peak when Feng Yi went down the mountain. Yan Zhenghui made many improvements to this treasure scripture and had all kinds of magical functions. The most significant thing is the speed increase and the "spirit gathering array" was arranged, so that only a very low true energy was needed to control the boat, which was a wonderful thing for a long journey!

Feng Yi and Qi Hao were both injured in the fierce battle with the beast monster. With this treasure, they could use this opportunity to take care of the two of them.

Therefore, after the long journey ended and arrived at a place not far from the Fenxiang Valley in southern Xinjiang, both of them were healed, which would not affect their use of the magical passage technique.

Originally, Qi Hao wanted to praise this magic weapon that was not powerful but had no magical use. But when he arrived in southern Xinjiang, he saw the devastation of the beast monsters without a chicken crowing thousands of miles away, both of them felt depressed and no longer had any interest in talking, but there was a little more urgent sense of mission.

When they went down the mountain that day, the disciples of Fenxiang Valley left before they could leave, and they set off immediately.

After a long time, they went to the southern border before the large troops of the Fenxiang Valley. If it weren't for this eagerness, they would not be able to catch up with the dispersed main force of the beast monster. What made Feng Yiwei breathe a sigh of relief was that the remaining main force of the beast monster did not flee like other ordinary beast monsters, but followed the beast god back to the southern border and returned to the 100,000 mountains again.

Without the rampant rage of those difficult monsters, it is undoubtedly easier for the righteous disciples to clear out the scattered beast monsters.

"Most of the three prefectures in southern Xinjiang were originally deserted places with few populations. After this catastrophe, it took countless years to recover its vitality!" Qi Hao sighed.

Feng Yi nodded: "If the beast monster is not eliminated, how can there be a peaceful day in the southern border?"

Qi Hao also said: "Yes. Shanzhou is the beginning of the rampant beast monster, and it is particularly harmful. The fellow Taoists in the Burning Xiang Valley may have to be busy for a long time before they can calm down. - We are chasing into the 100,000 mountains, do we need to visit us?"

Feng Yi pondered and said, "Although we both did not stop day and night, Fenxiang Valley was their sect's garrison after all, and someone must have returned to the garrison at this time." Qi Hao understood what he meant and nodded: "If this is the case, it would be better to trespass. Let's visit there first and then enter the mountain."

The truth is as expected by both of them.

Although they chased after them quickly, some elite forces in Fenxiang Valley returned to the valley first, and kept most of the other disciples behind to protect their injured fellow disciples. After the two of them appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of Fenxiang Valley. However, they were unable to see Yun Yilan, the master of Fenxiang Valley!

The two looked at each other and looked unpredictable.

With their identities at this moment, Yun Yilan's excuses were gone, obviously too neglected!

Shangguan Ce smiled bitterly and had no choice but to tell the truth. It turned out that Yun Yilan was not in the valley, but led Lu Shun, the fourth in charge of the Fenxiang Valley, and his disciple Li Xun, to chase into the 100,000 mountains!

The two looked at each other again, both of them were shocked.

Qi Hao was even more moved and said, "Master Yungu does not care about his own good and can be regarded as a role model for our sake!" No matter what the other party's idea was, he could immediately pursue him after the beast god escaped into the 100,000 mountains. In Qi Hao's opinion, he could bear his praise.

Feng Yi was silent and said nothing.

Because he knew that Yun Yilan was not as simple as he saw on the surface. He could use the means of "blood sacrifice" to seek strength. Such people were easy to be with him. After the beast god was defeated, he immediately led the Fenxiang Valley to retreat to the southern border, and was willing to risk chasing into the 100,000 mountains. He undoubtedly had deep thoughts and calculations.

Judging from the original trajectory, this person is even involved in the resurrection of the beast god, and Feng Yi is afraid of him and takes the majority!

However, when he takes Shangguan Ce seriously, Feng Yi will not talk nonsense.

After all, as far as the disciples of the Burning Incense Valley are fighting to protect the Tao, many of them are not like Yun Yilan and still can bear the word "justice".

Strangely, Shangguan Ce did not argue with Qi Hao's words.

This man was profound in Taoism and decisive in his methods. He made great contributions to the Fenxiang Valley. It was not very pleasing, but he seemed much more righteous than Yun Yilan, who was deeply thinking. Perhaps it was because of this that when Yun Yilan realized that he was against his ideas, he gradually rejected him.

Shangguan Ce had already revealed his joys and anger, and was inexplicably rejected, and he was also extremely angry.

Shangguan Ce was not surprised by Feng Yi and Qi Hao's purpose. If Qingyun had not sent anyone to come, he would be surprised if the Qingyun Sect had made some plans in secret and did not want them to know about the Burning Xiang Valley.

Therefore, after a brief greeting, Shangguan Ce said: "Two, there is a secret place in the 100,000 mountains, called the 'Ancient Demon Suppression Cave'. There have been rumors in southern Xinjiang since ancient times that this secret place suppresses a demon in a vast world. Now that the beast god is coming, it is just in line with this rumor. If what I expected is not bad, then the 'Ancient Demon Suppression Cave' is the nest of the beast god. This person escapes seriously injured. The biggest possibility is this place! If the two of you are confused, how can I send a disciple to lead the way for the two?"

One hundred thousand mountains can accommodate so many beasts and monsters, and the territory is obviously extremely vast.

If no one leads the way, they will probably spend some time on the beast demon territory. Feng Yi was about to refuse, after all, the thing in his hand is inconvenient to be seen by the disciples of Fenxiang Valley. However, Qi Hao did not know about this. Thinking of the heavy responsibility of this trip, the sooner he found the trace of the beast god, the better he responded.

Feng Yi was not good to refuse again.

When Shangguan Ce asked the lead man to come, Feng Yi saw that he was an old acquaintance and thought about it but did not object. Anyway, after the Beast God, the "Xuanhuojian" had a very small effect on him, and he was replaced by "Tianfeng". Then he could act according to the opportunity.

The incense burning disciple sent by Shangguan Ce was Yan Hong.

Since the gap between Shangguan Ce and Yun Yilan, he put his efforts away from Li Xun, and then valued his female disciple who was not usually visible and uncovered. Yun Yilan obviously had some plans when entering the mountain. Shangguan Ce got his order to stay in the Fenxiang Valley, so he had to send Yan Hong out. Even if he could not make a move, he had to find out Yun Yilan's plans.

In front of Feng Yi and the others, Shangguan Ce did not say that.
