Chapter 708: The Southern Wilderness Incident (Second Update)
There were no clouds in the sky, and the blazing sunshine shone directly on the mountains and the earth, making the uncovered areas hazy and distorted. In many places, the sky was filled with brilliant colors, turning into miasma and covering the surrounding area.
"The rainy season is here again..." Yuan Wen hid in the shade and looked outside the village with squinted eyes.
Although he was born here and lived here for more than 20 years, he never liked the rainy season in the Southern Wilderness. He always encountered showers. Even if it was sunny, his body seemed to be covered with a layer of water, making him very wet. It's uncomfortable.
"I heard Yuan Yang say that the north is not like this..." He was fascinated and admired his sister very much. Not only did she take exotic herbs, her terrible birthmarks disappeared, her figure became slim, but she was also full of courage and dared to go north alone. Taking risks, I have witnessed many strange things, which always make the young people in the tribe envious every time I tell them!
Just as he thought about his sister, he saw Yuan Yang returning from the barren ridge. He was breathing heavily and trying his best to adjust. His snow-white skin was covered with sweat. It was obvious that he had just finished a hard training session.
"Amei, you are the most powerful among the young people from the nearby tribes. Why are you working so hard?" Yuan Wen said casually without stepping out of the shade.
He hated practicing the exercises in the rainy season the most. He would sweat all over his body and his clothes would get soaked if he moved even a little bit.
Yuan Yang smiled: "Brother, the road to martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat."
Reincarnation is pressing down on the body, and danger is following closely. How can one dare to relax? Even if one's seven orifices are opened and the inner world is first formed, there is still a huge gap between him and those real masters of acupoints.
Yuan Wen felt irritated after hearing this. After his sister returned from traveling in the north, she spoke and talked differently from other women in the tribe. She attracted many compliments from the elders, which made her even more useless.
Yuan Yang had a lot of travel experience, so he could probably tell his brother's mentality, so he didn't say much and walked back to his earthen house, intending to wash himself and change his clothes.
After seeing too much, she didn't care much about things in the village. She felt that most of them were trivial things and she didn't need to waste her time.
Opening the thick wooden door and scanning it casually, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and saw a young man in white sitting next to the hanging pot in the fire pit, roasting sweet potatoes leisurely and fragrantly.
"M-Sir..." She suddenly became excited and immediately covered her mouth, fearing to attract the attention of others, but the clan members she interacted with seemed to turn a blind eye and not listen.
Yuan Ying suddenly turned around, closed the door, and was about to go over to salute when he suddenly let out a low voice and said in a panic: "Sir, wait a moment."
She walked around in a panic and muttered: "Oh no, no, no, I haven't even washed myself yet. I'm covered in stinky sweat. How can I see guests..."
Compared with the Central Plains women, she is more straightforward.
Meng Qi looked at it with a smile, without saying anything, and slowly peeled off the skin of the sweet potato and tasted it.
After a while, Yuan Yang cleaned up and came out of the bedroom, with his hair in many braids and his eyes sparkling.
"I came to you to ask about the situation in the Southern Wilderness." After the Yuan Yuan Bank finished the ceremony and sat on the other side of the fire pit, Meng Qicai smiled and spoke.
Yuan Yang immediately beamed, happy that he could help the young master: "The mountains in the Southern Wilderness are known as millions of people, but they are all barren mountains and rivers. Miasmic fog and poisonous insects are everywhere. There are countless monsters and wild beasts. It is difficult to come and go. There is no news. There are many evil spirits and heretics, each occupying the top of the mountain. , the nearby tribes surrendered to them, half being squeezed and tortured, and half relying on them to resist the invasion of monsters and ensure the inheritance of the tribe, with only the most powerful exceptions..."
She carefully considered her tone and tried to use more elegant words learned from Da Jin.
Meng Qi did not interrupt and listened calmly. He waited until Yuan Yang finished speaking before asking, "Where is the Blood Clothes Sect?"
Hearing these three words, Yuan Yang couldn't help but feel a bit of fear on his face, as if he had been taught the terror of the other party day and night.
She took two breaths before speaking slowly: "The Blood Clothes Cult is the most cruel. They like to use human bodies to practice martial arts. They are also cruel to themselves, so they have extreme temperaments and like to kill. They are probably responsible for the genocide in the Southern Wilderness."
"The evil demons of the Left Dao are not willing to provoke them. If they hit one, a group of people will definitely come to retaliate. However, it is inconvenient to transmit information in the southern wilderness, and the wild beasts are not smart, so they do not dare to be too arrogant in front of strong people."
Otherwise, if you really anger the opponent, capture him secretly, and throw him to the wild beast, no matter how strong the Blood Clothes Sect is, can you still find the true master?
"The Blood Clothes Sect's main altar is deep in the southern wilderness, but many elders and disciples like to go out to occupy the mountains and enslave the tribes..." Yuan Yang continued.
Meng Qi came to the Southern Wilderness this time for two main purposes. One was to find out through various methods the reality of the Blood Clothes Sect's weird skills so that he would know how to deal with the death mission if he encountered it. The other was to find out about the so-called "reincarnated soul boy". Well, if we can directly cut off the Blood Sea Rakshasa's penetration into the world of gods and demons through Du Huai's injury, that would be the best!
Therefore, he took the initiative to ask: "Have you ever heard about reincarnation in Southern Wilderness?"
Yuan Yang's face suddenly changed, as if he remembered something scary, and after a long time he said: "When I was a child, I heard the elders mention that there is a tribe near Chang Snake Mountain called 'Eternal Life', and everyone in their tribe has the power of reincarnation. Yes, when he is about to die, he will leave reminders and tokens for his tribe to find his reincarnation, and he can find it every time. He has all the memories of the deceased, and his personality, habits and way of speaking are all exactly the same, except that he becomes "
"It is very difficult for children in this tribe to be born, unless one of the tribe members dies and becomes the reincarnation of the other tribe."
Such weird and inexplicable things always gave her similar nightmares when she was a child!
It sounded like a tribe of living Buddhas... Meng Qi almost laughed.
He is not unfamiliar with this situation, so he will naturally not be afraid.
Yuan Yang knew that the young master was very powerful and not afraid of ghosts, so he laughed at himself and continued: "But the Immortal Clan has been exterminated."
"The clan was exterminated?" Meng Qi was a little surprised now and vaguely guessed something.
As expected, Yuan Yang nodded and said: "More than ten years ago, the leader of the Blood Clothes Sect suddenly took action and wiped out their clan."
Meng Qi had finished eating the sweet potatoes. He put his right hand on the back of his left hand and tapped it gently, lost in thought.
"The Blood Sea Rakshasa destroyed the immortal race with the power of reincarnation" and "Du Huaishang is his reincarnated soul boy". If these two things are not related at all, Meng Qi will be the first to not believe it!
"Can any member of the Eternal Clan escape?" he asked.
Yuan Yang frowned and thought for a long time before shaking his head: "It is said that the Blood Clothes Sect conducted a large-scale search for a while, but nothing happened after that."
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded thoughtfully. After asking about the location of Chang Snake Mountain, he patted his clothes and stood up slowly.
Yuan Yang's eyes lit up: "Sir, if you want to go to Chang Snake Mountain, I can show you the way."
"No need, I want to cause trouble for the Blood-clothed Sect before going to Chang Snake Mountain. Do you want to follow me to pick on the Blood-clothed Sect's sub-chamber?" Meng Qi said with a smile.
He entered the Southern Wilderness alone. As long as he controlled the situation and did not attract the top few of the Blood Clothes Sect, he was not afraid of others at all, so he planned to come directly to "ask for advice"!
Yuan Yang choked immediately. She believed in the young master's strength, but her tribe was in the southern wilderness. After the young master succeeded, he could pat his clothes and walk away, but she could run away, but the monk could not run away from the temple.
Meng Qi laughed and disappeared into the earthen house.
I finally straightened it out and the story unfolded slowly. The number of words is a bit short. I will make up for it tomorrow.
