I’ll Quit Being a God

In the river, there are fish surging and aquatic plants are lush.

Looking at the scene of swimming fish, Lu Heng showed a nostalgic smile, "I haven't eaten fish in a long time..."

His sudden sigh made Xiao Ai on the side twitch his lips, remembering the time when he went down the mountain six years ago, the scene where the Wolf God was eating fish in the back mountain...

"Well...if Lord Wolf God wants to eat fish, Xiao Ai will cook it for you later," Xiao Ai said quickly, fearing that Lu Heng would swallow the river fish directly in front of so many people.

That would be too detrimental to the majestic image of the Wolf God.

Lu Hengze laughed and said: "Okay, let's have fish for dinner. I've been in seclusion for so long, maybe I haven't tasted Xiao Ai's craftsmanship for a long time, and I miss it a lot."

This promise made Xiao Ai relax.

At this time, the bamboo raft had already flowed down the river and reached the edge of Hanyu Mountain.

Not far away is the Aquatic Village, and on both sides of the river bank are the camps of the Wind Attack Division.

The old priest holding a cane, supported by Qianqian, stood on the bank of the river and saluted Lu Heng from a distance.

Lu Heng also returned the gift from a distance and said with a smile: "Han Yushan, I'll trouble the old gentleman to take care of it on my behalf."

The old priest smiled slightly and said: "As it should be, the Wolf God can rest assured and go eastward. With the Wind Attack Division here, the evil spirits will not dare to come to Hanyu Mountain to act recklessly."

Chapter 255: Talking about Demons in the Station (Part 1)

As the most powerful priest among the nine tribes of the Li tribe, the old man naturally has the confidence to say such arrogant words.

The most awe-inspiring thing in Hanyu Mountain among the demons and evil spirits outside is actually not only the wolf god who is a cultivator in the mountain and has no involvement in the world.

To the evil spirits, although the wolf god is scary, he cultivates in the mountains and does not set foot in the rivers and lakes, so as long as he does not go to Hanyu Mountain to seek death and provoke him, it will be fine.

But the Wind Attack tribe in Hanyu Mountain often sent the Qingzhuang clan members out to patrol, hunt down and kill passing monsters, killing all the monsters alive within a thousand miles of Hanyu Mountain until not a single monster dared to stand close.

It has become a restricted area for monsters.

Even the four old guests and the three demon generals of Qingming Cave were filled with resentment, but they did not dare to actually enter the thousand-mile radius to provoke.

Not to mention that the nine tribes of the Li tribe are all linked together, even if it is just the Xi Feng tribe, it is enough to be feared.

And no force or individual in the world can bear the consequences of angering the nine tribes of the Li tribe.

For Qingming Cave, the greatest luck now is that the Li tribe's Xifeng tribe staying in Huotong Kingdom has not joined forces with the wizard.

This group of aloof Li people have never intervened in the disputes in the spiritual world. This is the ancestral motto.

Sending disciples to hunt down the evil spirits near the camp was already the limit. If they didn't provoke the evil spirits, they wouldn't really be able to confront Qingming Cave.

After all, they have a more important mission to complete...

Therefore, the Li tribe in Hanyu Mountain is not the enemy that the demons of Qingming Cave need to be afraid of.

Just as a bamboo raft entered the water, the white-clothed wolf god entered the world. After this scene was seen by some passers-by or birds and animals on both sides of the river, the news spread quickly.

Hanyu Mountain Wolf God enters the world...

This news was like a heavy boulder hitting the deep sea, causing a storm.

The fire spread across the country, and the evil spirits were miserable. In the place where the long river passed, which was not a wide place, the evil spirits close to both sides of the long river quickly evacuated and fled. Several plots of attacks and killings that were supposed to be carried out were immediately stopped and did not dare to continue.

The evil spirits, who were already fighting red-eyed, briefly restrained their tentacles and retreated into the wilderness, giving this world a brief period of peace for a few days.

But Lu Heng didn't seem to care about all this.

A bamboo raft floated down the river. Lu Heng on the raft had a leisurely expression, telling stories to Xiao Ai Guyan, letting the raft travel along the river without using magic power to accelerate.

It took them five days to get out of the thousand-mile radius around Hanyu Mountain.

On both sides of the river, there are many temporary houses and residences.

Although the river is very fast and has a huge drop through the mountains and fields, it is impossible to sail on it. But there are also fish swimming in the water, and there are birds and beasts in the mountains.

In the past, these wildernesses that might be inhabited by ferocious beasts were scary and infiltrating, but in the Huotong Kingdom where evil spirits are now rampant, although there are strange beasts running rampant within the thousand-mile radius of Hanyu Mountain, there are no demons.

Compared with those man-eating monsters, people are more willing to face strange beasts.

At the very least, as long as they live in groups in a stronghold, ordinary strange beasts cannot break into the stronghold and kill people.

Facing those ferocious and terrifying beasts, people can still struggle to resist, or even work together to force them back. Even if there were casualties, they would only be in single digits.

But if a demon enters the village, the whole village will be dead, and no one can escape.

Therefore, in recent years, most of the wild people such as Shuisheng Village who are not within the boundaries of the boundary monument and are not protected by witchcraft have migrated to the safe area of ​​​​thousand miles around Hanyu Mountain to avoid the demons. Chaos.

As for the mortal villagers who are within the city and have been blessed by the witchcraft, they have been moved to live temporarily near the city long ago and no longer stay in the mountains.

Boundary monuments set at the boundaries of the city used to deter evil spirits, preventing them from entering the boundaries of the boundary monuments to commit crimes. But not anymore.

Not to mention boundary monuments, even in the city guarded by Wu Zhu, there are demons who dare to attack in groups and rush into the city to eat people in broad daylight.

Under all the chaos, those who are most harmed are ordinary people without magic power.

Along the way eastward, the newly built villages seen on both sides of the river are the result of migration under such a background.

On the sixth day, Lu Heng and his party left the bamboo raft and landed ashore.

Although this long river goes eastward, it does not enter the Pangjiang River system. Once here, it’s time to abandon the bamboo raft and walk.

However, everyone is a cultivator. Even the youngest Shen Wuyou is a demon cultivator. He can run in the wilderness as if he were walking on flat ground and is not afraid of the hard work of the journey.

In fact, the little boy was already restless on the bamboo raft.

He originally thought that after Lu Heng took him down the mountain, he would drive directly eastward on the clouds, arrive at Luwu Mountain in a few days, and then go to Qingming Cave.

However, after going down the mountain, everyone stayed on the small bamboo raft and walked east slowly, at a terrifyingly slow speed.

Now six days have passed, but they have only left Hanyu Mountain for about a thousand miles.

Especially after abandoning the bamboo raft and landing on the shore, Lu Heng's leisurely pace like an outing was slower than when going down the river, making the little boy completely unable to sit still.

At night, when a campfire was lit in the inn that had been abandoned for several years and Xiao Ai started cooking, the little boy who had been holding back for a long time finally couldn't help but walked up to Lu Heng.

"Dad..." the little boy said, "If we go like this, when will we reach Luwu Mountain..."

The little boy's worried inquiry made Lu Heng raise his head and glance at him.

He smiled and said: "It can take as short as ten days or as long as half a month. We can reach the Pang River. By then we can go down the Pang River and go as fast as possible."

"At the latest, we can arrive at Luwu Mountain before July 15th."

Lu Heng smiled and gave the answer, but this answer almost made the little boy collapse.

"July 15th... That's already too late!" Shen Wuyou said anxiously: "My sister has been captured by the evil spirits in Qingming Cave for eight days, and I don't know what kind of torture she suffered. Now she has to wait another day. More than 1 month...Dad! Can’t we just fly there?”

The little boy was almost crying.

Seeing him acting like this, Lu Heng also suppressed his smile and sighed.

"Wuyou think if I hurry up, I can rescue Xiao Yu?"

Lu Heng's words made the little boy stunned for a moment, not quite understanding the question.

Lu Heng smiled and said, "Wuyou, you think things are too simple. Qingming Cave is hidden very deep. Even now, no one knows where their lair is."

"Even if I take you to Luwu Mountain immediately and see your mother's former residence, what's next? Where should we go to find your sister next? Wuyou, do you know the location of Qingming Cave?"

Lu Heng's question made the little boy confused: "This... this..."

Lu Heng patted him on the shoulder and said, "So no matter how fast you are, you still can't find your sister."

"On the contrary, if we want to find your sister, we can't hurry up now."

“Not only can’t it be fast, but it must also be slow.”

Lu Heng looked at the dark night outside the inn door and sighed: "We have to wait until Qingming Cave can clearly know our whereabouts and work out a solution. Only in this way can we meet your sister."

Chapter 256: Talking about Demons in the Station (Part 2)

The little boy understood Lu Heng's words immediately.

"What dad means is that we have to leave slowly, so that the evil spirits from Qingming Cave will come to us? Are you using my sister to blackmail dad?"

Lu Heng smiled slightly and said, "Wouyou is indeed smart, exactly what you said."

"Your sister was taken away by the demons. What did they want? They just wanted to use Xiaoyu to blackmail me and make me reach some kind of agreement with them or help them do something."

"So we are walking in the wilderness now, waiting for your sister."

"When the demons and demons come to a conclusion after discussing it, then demons and demons will naturally come to the door and put forward conditions."

"If we go directly against the wind and arrive at Luwu Mountain quickly so that the demons in Qingming Cave don't know our location, then we won't be able to see your sister."

Lu Heng's words made the little boy suddenly realize.

But then, I felt a little scared.

"But...but daddy, does any evil spirit really dare to come to you?"

Although Lu Heng has never shown his tricks in front of the little boy, there is a lot of information about the silent swirling clouds in Hanyu Mountain, the legend about the wolf god Lu Heng in the mountains and fields, and the praise and admiration of Uncle Wu Zhu Jie when he came... After the encounter, Shen Wuyou had already understood what kind of "evil reputation" his father had among the evil spirits.

Is there really any evil spirit that dares to come to your door...

Little boy worried and worried.

Lu Heng smiled and sighed, and said: "Don't worry, there must be someone who dares to come to me. And maybe I even know that messenger..."

Lu Heng's words made Xiao Ai, who was cooking, pause slightly.

Even Gu Yan, who was hanging under the eaves, couldn't help but tilt his head.

The little boy looked shocked: "Daddy still knows the monsters in Qingming Cave?"

Lu Heng shook his head and said: "When I met her, she was not a monster, just an innocent and romantic little fox. But now five years have passed, I don't know what happened to her... Sigh..."

When talking about the little fox demon, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing that the little boy was curious, Lu Heng told the story in general about how he met the fox girl Su Xiaoxiao in Nanhai, and his godmother, Mrs. Qingzhu, who was the evil spirit of Qingming Cave.

The little boy was shocked and couldn't believe it.

"Then Mrs. Qingzhu is a monster, but she doesn't allow her daughter to enter the devil's path? She forces her daughter to practice the righteous path... Is there really such a monster in this world?"

Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, and said: "Monsters also have emotions and desires. It is not surprising that there are such monsters who consider wholeheartedly for their loved ones."

"In other words, demons have too strong emotions and six desires, and they are controlled by magic skills, so they have no taboos in their actions. They can eat people if they want to, practice magic skills quickly and easily, and do not want to restrain their desires. They just blindly Only if you indulge yourself will there be all kinds of chaos caused by evil spirits causing trouble in the world."

Lu Heng looked at the little boy in front of him and said, "Wuyou, your understanding of monsters is too one-sided."

"Evils are not those who commit murder, arson, and commit all kinds of evil."

"There have been countless good people and good people who have followed evil paths and evil paths. There are also not a few evil spirits who hate and reject evil paths and evil paths."

"After all, in such a chaotic and vicious world, not everyone can fully integrate into it."

Lu Heng's words made the little boy hesitate for a while before he spoke.

"Then dad is saying that Mrs. Qingzhu has regrets and hates and rejects the devil, so that's why she doesn't allow her daughter to practice magic?"

Lu Heng thought for a moment and said, "That's what I guessed. But whether the facts are true as I guessed, only Mrs. Qingzhu herself knows."

The little boy added: "Dad, since this Mrs. Qingzhu is remorseful, maybe we can try to contact her? Ask her for help? She is one of the four guests in Qingming Cave. If we are willing to let her go, Maybe we can let her take the initiative to reveal the location of Qingming Cave's lair? This can also lead her to be a good person and give her a chance to change her ways."

The little boy gave advice.

Lu Heng looked at him with a smile. He did not reject the proposal immediately, but asked with a smile.

"Wuyou, do you think Mrs. Qingzhu can be saved?"

The little boy hesitated for a moment and said: "Since she has regrets in her heart, maybe she can change her ways..."

Lu Heng added: "Then let me give you an example... Xiaoyu is now in Qingming Cave, and may have met Madam Qingzhu. If Madam Qingzhu suddenly kills your sister Xiaoyu for some inexplicable reason. Killed and sucked Xiao Yu’s blood and soul to practice martial arts, leaving Xiao Yu’s soul torn apart.”

"A few days later, Mrs. Qingzhu came to you and me and told us that if I am willing to let her go, give her a chance to change her ways, and not hold accountable the lives of the people she killed before, including your sister, then she will tell The location of our Qingming Cave... If this is the case, Wuyou, are you still willing to let go of the demon who killed your sister?"

Lu Heng's question with a smile made the little boy stunned.

"this……"

He was stunned for a while, and finally lowered his head in shame and said, "Dad taught me that Wuyou was too naive."

"Mrs. Qingzhu has been in the demonic path for many years. She has killed countless people and practiced martial arts. She has killed many living beings and is full of blood feud... Except for the deceased who were harmed by her and their relatives, no one in the world is qualified to forgive her."

The little boy murmured.

Lu Heng looked at him with admiration and said with a smile, "It's very commendable that Wuyou can figure this out."
