Lord of Deception

Chapter 38: Don’t treat guests as guests

The Jinlan Mine is much higher than before, and it is a little inconvenient to get out of the village. Originally, from the outside, there were not many high mountains, but now there are peaks, undulating mountains, stretching for dozens of miles, and now New changes appear every day, silently.

The strange power that permeates the village still maintains this area. What was once an inconvenience has now become a benefit, a natural forbidden area for Qi refining monks.

But there are also many disadvantages. For example, there used to be only one entrance to the village, but now Jinlan Mountain can be entered from all directions, which makes Yu Ziqing feel very insecure.

In addition, when the King of Hungry Ghosts was born, the hungry ghosts in the entire wasteland, as well as countless starving ghosts, all felt that a new path was opening at that moment, and they naturally chose to transform without hesitation.

As a result, the overwhelming number of hungry ghosts, like a tide, had all piled up outside the Jinlan Mountains after a few days.

They were all waiting for their first alms, and at the same time, they came to worship and thank their king.

They all came from poor families during their lifetime, which sounds like nonsense, because those who are not poor will not starve to death.

There are many hungry ghosts inside, all from the same period as when Yu Ziqing first starved to death.

No matter how he looked at it, Yu Ziqing felt that he should settle these hungry ghosts. The most direct and efficient way was like this.

He used the branches of the locust tree where hungry ghosts lived in the tree as a guide, and spread the sweet rain to create a large area of ​​​​locust trees that was most suitable for hungry ghosts to live in.

They have a roof over their heads, where they no longer need to be exposed to wind, cold, rain, snow, or hunger. At the same time, it can also serve as a gateway to guard Jinlan Mountain, isolating it from the outside world.

This can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

It's just that the entire Jinlan Mountain is surrounded and stretches for hundreds of miles. The amount of work is a bit large and cannot be completed in a day or two. And this kind of thing can only be done by people with the authority of the King of Hungry Ghosts. No one can do it. can replace him.

After a few days, Yu Ziqing went to the toilet on time, spread the sweet rain conscientiously, and completely gave up the idea of ​​going shopping in person. Xian Xuan was finally persuaded by him, stopped staring at him, and was willing to take Erhan out to find food.

After walking out of the Jinlan Mountains, Yu Ziqing continued to walk out for a while. This was to leave a part of the area that was not covered by supernatural forces, so that people in the village could live in the future and practice cultivation.

After all, people in the village cannot have children within the scope of the Jinlan Mountains, and Lao Yang doesn't know whether he can't have children in that area, or whether he can't have children even if he comes out.

Anyway, leave some normal places first to be prepared.

Moreover, the land in the wasteland is worthless and no one wants it, so you can just circle it.

Yu Ziqing walked alone in the snow, constantly spreading the sweet rain, and large tracts of locust trees rose from the ground as he walked.

He didn't feel scared at all, because even he didn't know how many hungry ghosts were hiding under the thick snow.

After he passed by, hungry ghosts emerged from under the snow one by one, bowed respectfully and thanked them, and then each chose a locust tree as a shelter.

Of course, Yu Ziqing didn’t know that Wu Shuangge was abiding by Xin Xin’s instructions. In addition to asking Yu Ziqing to go to the toilet after counting down to 20,000, he also kept staring at Yu Ziqing for fear that he would have sequelae. Before disappearing, there was something unexpected.

Erhan's whole body was steaming, like a humanoid beast. He ran as fast as an arrow, sprinting on the snow without falling into it.

Xianxuan, on the other hand, wore a black robe, stepped on a wooden board, and galloped through the snow. He looked relaxed and content, and could still keep up with Erhan's footsteps.

The two of them traveled in a hurry for three days and three nights, day and night, with only occasional breaks on the road. Finally, they crossed a distance of more than 3,000 miles and arrived at the junction of Wasteland, Dali, and Daqian.

When we arrived, although there was still snow on the road, it was not that deep anymore, and some evergreen species could still be seen vaguely. In this season, there was still a touch of green.

When they got here, they slowed down, and their eyes were all red. They had been running for three days and three nights in order to go back quickly, and now they had lost a lot of weight.

"Sister Xianxian, didn't you say before that if we went to Dali at full speed, we would arrive in two days? Why did we run for three days? Could it be that you got lost?"

"Have you forgotten what the headmaster told you before you came out?"

"I listen to you, watch more, follow your instructions, and shut your mouth."

"Then how did you do it?"

"I was wrong, Sister Xianxun, don't tell my grandpa when you go back, and don't tell Brother Ziqing either."

He glanced sympathetically at the idiot. He was not stupid, but he just didn't want to use his brain.

The Jinlan Mountain where their village is located is indeed closer to Dali. It only takes two days of driving towards the east to enter the territory of Dali. Within three days, you can find a border town with a slightly larger population.

But at this time, two people from the wilderness came to Dali to purchase a large amount of food. Guess whether the people from Dali's Shadow Division would be so wasteful that such people would not even notice.

When Yu Ziqing asked the whole village to start physical training, it was for a plan to move the whole village. Without the second level of physical training for all members, it would be impossible for so many people to move together and successfully walk through the thousands of freezing cold weather. In the wasteland.

There is a 10 to 10 chance that the only person who can come out alive is Erhan, a natural-born body-training seedling and a beast in human form.

Now the plan for all employees to move out has naturally been abandoned. The risks are too high, so only a few people can come out to find ways to purchase various foods.

The best way is to go to a relatively chaotic place so that no one will notice you easily.

Going northeast, where Daquake and Dali meet, is an option, but it's not the best option. There isn't enough chaos there, and there won't be much food there this season.

So there is only one other option. Go east-south and you can reach the junction of Dali and Daqian. If you don't go too far along the junction, you will find a place sandwiched between Dali and Daqian. It's nothing. Kuihou, a small country with a sense of existence.

The Kuihou Kingdom has the Hengduan Mountains in the north and the dangerous Nu River in the south, which separates the two great kingdoms of the north and the south. Most importantly, Kuihou has few precious resources in the country. The only thing that is relatively famous is that it is rich in oirans.

Neither Daqian nor Dali could see the other side occupying the Kuihou Kingdom, and they were also happy to see that there was a buffer zone in the middle. Otherwise, the border would be a full border, stretching for tens of thousands of miles, and neither side would be able to Will like it.

In the past hundred years, the conflict between Dali and Daqian has been maintained on the border. Maybe they are talking about friendly trade here, but small-scale conflicts also occurred somewhere on the border at the same time.

The scope has not been expanded, and the buffer zones in the middle still have some merit.

The place we are going to now is not far from the wasteland, at the junction of Dali, Daqian and Kuihou Kingdom.

The geographical location there, coupled with the fact that neither Dali nor Daqian sent any large armies to suppress it, naturally there was a mixture of good and bad, with all three religions and nine streams, and there were naturally the most people who couldn't get on the stage.

This season, a good harvest has just been completed in the southern part of Daqian. Finding a second-rate dealer there to buy food for hundreds of people for a year is definitely not something worth noting.

What needs to be noted is to buy some things that Lao Yang needs. Lao Yang is trying to find a way to see if he can grow Jinlan mushrooms again. Without this special specialty, the speed of body refining of the people in the village has plummeted to the original hundred. One of them is praising them for their talent.

Among the vast number of Kuhaha people, when it comes to taking supplements, few have the luxury to eat third- and fourth-grade elixirs.

With so many things to buy, how could Xian Xian dare to go to the territory of Dali? If he did, he would be mocking the people of the Shadow Division.

There is quite a lot of money and things that can be used as money. When I traded with Da Gan before, Da Gan gave me a lot. The head of the village thinks long-term in his work, so he kept everything if he didn’t need it. I didn’t expect that he would actually use it now. .

Xian Xian took Erhan, who looked like he was no ordinary person, along the junction line and walked for two more days. After recovering some energy and strength, they finally arrived at their destination.

The sky is getting dark, but the small town, seen from a distance, is brightly lit and bustling with activity.

In the city gate cave, even the city gate was demolished at some time, and there was an endless stream of people coming in and out. None of them were ordinary people, and many of them even had strong evil spirits and bloody smells on their bodies.

Xianxian took Erhan into the city, turning left and right all the way until they came to an inn, knocked on the door and went in.

Erhan was full of questions and didn't dare to ask.

He could only watch Xian Xian skillfully lead him to check into the inn, find the shopkeeper here, throw him a piece of purple-gold metal, and ask him to buy some materials he needed, all of which were from the list given by Lao Yang. There is everything in the mess, and I am not afraid of people seeing anything.

The next day, Xian Xian took him to a dental store and purchased enough food to feed hundreds of people for a year.

Erhan watched Xianxian wave his hand, and the mountains of food disappeared. He continued to hold back and did not dare to ask.

Then I went to another restaurant and purchased a lot of beef.

Every time you buy something, go to another store.

After spending a day shopping for food, they returned to the inn when it got dark.

"Guest, I have basically bought all the things you asked for. There are just a few items that are not available yet. They should be available tomorrow..." The shopkeeper brought the purchased items and asked Xianxuan to count them one by one.

After counting, he waved his hand, took away all the things, and looked at the shopkeeper expressionlessly.

"If you don't understand the rules when opening an inn, why should you open an inn?"

After saying a few words, Xianqian could no longer hold back and immediately left with Erhan.

The shopkeeper's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

There is a rule here that tells guests not to keep guests. The inn cannot keep guests, otherwise it will be a broken rule. This rule is because many people have tested it with blood over the years.

Of course, just listen to the rules of this ghost place.

Who can open an inn in this place is not a black shop. How can you open an inn? Just by opening an inn, you only have a few dollars, which is not enough for daily management.

Xianqian left the town with Erhan.

After walking out of the city, Xianxin said her first words of the day to Erhan.

"On the way back, if we meet anyone, don't say a word, just beat them to death without leaving any one behind. If we can't beat them, run to Dali immediately, don't run to home."
