Volume 4 Peach Blossom Chapter 18: Wu Xiu Village
Lu Qingshan was somewhat surprised and asked quickly, "Do you have a way to find Mimi?"
"No." Qin Yitian shook his head.
"Then what are you doing..." Lu Qingshan was confused.
What does your confident look mean?
"Don't you have me here? I believe there is no difficulty that you cannot solve." Qin Yitian said as a matter of course.
"...You are truly my sword." Lu Qingshan said with emotion.
“Hehe,” Qin Yitian chuckled, and once again turned into red light and merged into the Dragon Bird Sword, “Young Master, you must remember that I am just a sword.”
Lu Qingshan: “…”
"If there is no other information, we can only take our chances." Lu Qingshan murmured.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly had an idea. He patted the shoulder of the King of Western Rat, who was still mourning his lost red hair, and said, "Where are we going next? Can you tell me the direction?"
The King of the Western Rat raised his head unhappily and pointed in a direction, "This way."
Lu Qingshan nodded, and followed the direction pointed by the Western Rat King, and his figure quickly disappeared into the forest.
Since it's just a matter of luck, the direction chosen by the King of the West Rat, who is the emperor of Europe, should be the most appropriate direction.
…
After walking for a while, Lu Qingshan determined that Qingqiu's location should be deep in the Three Thousand Mountains.
The reason was that he encountered many third-grade monsters along the way, and even some fourth-grade ones.
In such a place, Lu Qingshan did not dare to act rashly.
Because they didn't know what kind of trouble would be caused by taking action, in most cases they could only avoid these monsters.
Sometimes there is no escape, for example, at this moment, there is a nest about three or four miles away from him, which is very hidden.
Lu Qingshan ignored it because he didn't pay attention for a moment. If the King of Western Rat hadn't reminded him, he might have had to walk up to it to discover it.
A giant spider lived in the nest. Its body was several feet in diameter and covered with creepy green hair. Its eight gray-brown eyes flashed a faint light and were staring at Lu Qingshan.
Obviously, Lu Qingshan was discovered.
Lu Qingshan felt a chill in his heart.
This is the Green Poison Spider King, a great demon at the fourth level.
But it seemed that the blooming spirit flower worked. The Green Poisonous Spider King clearly discovered Lu Qingshan, but he just stared at Lu Qingshan from a distance, motionless.
The Green Poisonous Spider King did not attack Lu Qingshan until he walked away.
"This blooming spiritual flower is indeed magical, but I don't know where it came from. I have never heard of it before." Lu Qingshan marveled at the miraculous effect of the blooming spiritual flower.
With the protection of the blooming spiritual flower, Lu Qingshan flew safely for half a day and then stopped in front of an inconspicuous hill.
The place is rocky and the environment is very harsh.
There were a lot of dead branches and leaves scattered on the ground. Just looking at the messy scene, it was obvious that a battle had taken place here.
Lu Qingshan quickly released his spiritual sense to take a look at the surrounding environment. After a moment, he had an idea and walked towards the hill.
In front of the hill, Lu Qingshan waved his sleeves and rolled away the dead grass, branches and other debris.
A human skeleton appeared before him.
Judging from the situation, he must have been dead for a long time.
"This is..." Lu Qingshan's eyes were full of surprise.
It's not that he had never seen corpses before. He had even killed quite a few monks with his own hands. So what surprised him was not the corpses, but the fact that the bones in front of him were actually the bones of a mortal.
Because of the nourishment of spiritual energy, even if only bones are left of a cultivator, they will still glow brightly, which is very different from the corpses of mortals.
But the skeleton in front of him was plain and gray, and even had many green spots on it, as if it had been poisoned by something during its lifetime. It was definitely not the skeleton transformed by a monk.
In the depths of the Three Thousand Mountains, even he had to be cautious and rely on the Soul-blowing Flower given by the Lord of Qingqiu Mountain to protect himself. How could a mortal get in?
That only means that this mortal is not an outsider, but most likely someone who has lived here since childhood.
It must be the human village where witches gather!
Looking at the remains at his feet, Lu Qingshan's eyebrows were tightly twisted together.
It is impossible for mortals to stray too far from their habitat, which means that there should be a human village nearby.
If he could find a human village, he could use it to get some useful information instead of being like a headless fly like this.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Qingshan stood up and began to search the area in a circle with the skeleton as the center.
Half a day later.
Lu Qingshan looked at the small village not far ahead and a strange expression appeared on his face.
It is really a very small village, with simple but solid wooden houses standing in a row.
Lu Qingshan only needed to use his spiritual sense to sweep around and he was able to understand the general situation of the village.
There were nearly a thousand villagers, all of whom looked very thin, with dark complexions and dark lips, as if they were poisoned. Most of them had black scarves wrapped around their heads.
There are a total of sixteen cultivators in the village. These cultivators are not like those in the outside world who are high and mighty, but live together with mortals.
However, among these dozen cultivators, the highest cultivation level is only at the tenth level of Qi Refining, and is not a threat at all.
What is strange is that from this small village of only a thousand people, there were more than a dozen monks.
This ratio is quite high, and many large families may not be able to match it.
But what Lu Qingshan found most incomprehensible was why a human village with only Qi-refining cultivators could survive in the three thousand mountains full of dangers.
According to common sense, these villagers should have been eaten up by the monsters long ago.
After thinking for a while and still not figuring it out, Lu Qingshan stopped thinking about it.
Why don't you just go up and ask and you'll know?
Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan walked straight towards the village.
At the entrance of the village, he was stopped by alert villagers.
This is a middle-aged man, looking at Lu Qingshan with a vigilant look, "Who are you?"
The accent is a bit heavy, but the language is still the common language of the human race, and they can communicate normally.
"I am from outside the mountain. I got lost in the mountain and saw a human village here. I wanted to come over to ask for directions. Is it convenient?" Despite the absolute overwhelming strength, although Lu Qingshan spoke politely, he did not have too many taboos and spoke frankly.
After hearing what Lu Qingshan said, the middle-aged man looked Lu Qingshan up and down and said in a muffled voice: "You mean, you came from outside the mountain?"
Lu Qingshan nodded.
The middle-aged man showed a strange expression on his face and moved aside. "Come with me. I will take you to see our village chief."
It happened very naturally and there was no difficulty, which surprised Lu Qingshan.
He was originally afraid that the poor and remote areas would produce unruly people who would force him to use force, but he did not expect that it would be so smooth.
