Chapter 324: White Stone Tribe, Storm
The journey was 50,000 miles across the vast ocean. Ji Qingzhou had set out a month or two later than Ji Qiuyu. He did not dare to delay on the road and did not stop for half a month.
But there are thousands of races in the demon world, and each has different rules.
Ji Qingzhou and the other two are outsiders with special identities, so they need to be more careful.
"Ahead is Baishi Ridge, where dozens of demon tribes, led by the Wind Eagle Tribe, gather. Most of these demon tribes are rare, and in order to survive, they rely on the Wind Eagle Tribe. They have united and formed an alliance, calling themselves the 'Baishi Tribe'."
Ji Qingzhou and the other two were on the flying boat and could see the endless mountains and rocks ahead from afar.
Different from the green mountains and clear waters elsewhere, the mountains in this area are mostly made of a pale rock called "white stone", and the land and vegetation are very scarce.
At first glance, it seems all white, showing a desolate, gray, bleak and empty feeling.
Baishiling is the only way for them to go to Canghai. If they take a detour, they will waste six or seven days.
However, if they want to pass through Baishiling, the three of them have to pay tolls to the Baishi tribe.
The main part of Baishiling is rock, with sparse vegetation and scarce resources. Although the demon clan of the Baishi tribe owns a large area of mountains and forests, they live a tight life. So they follow the example of the big demon cities and collect tolls from the monks passing by to earn some food.
According to the "Detailed Explanation of the Ten Thousand Races in the Demon World", although the demons of the Baishi tribe collect tolls, they are honest in nature.
After collecting tolls, they would kindly escort some weak cultivators across the mountains. They also have a good attitude towards human cultivators and are one of the more friendly demons in the demon world towards humans.
Therefore, many monks who were passing by here were willing to pay tolls to them in exchange for protection.
Thinking of this, Ji Qingzhou had no intention of taking a detour and drove the spirit boat closer to Baishiling.
"Wow—"
However, when the spirit boat was still half a mile away from Baishiling, an eagle's cry was heard from the sky, carrying unfriendly anger.
A shadow was cast above the spirit boat where Ji Qingzhou was, covering the three people.
She looked up and saw a huge black eagle flapping its wings and swooping down.
When it was about to collide with them, the Black Hawk made a sharp turn in the air, spread its wings two or three meters long, and stirred up a whistling wind, sweeping towards Ji Qingzhou's spirit boat.
Ji Qingzhou did not dodge or evade, nor did he show any intention of taking any action.
The whistling wind may seem scary, but in fact it has no killing power. It is just an ordinary gust of wind.
The spirit boat's built-in protective shield kept the strong wind out, and the three people sitting on the spirit boat didn't even move a hair.
"Humanity!"
An angry female voice came out of Black Hawk's mouth, sounding very young, "The White Stone Tribe does not welcome you!"
This made Ji Qingzhou a little surprised. The "Detailed Explanation of the Myriad Races in the Demon Realm" clearly stated that the Baishi Tribe was very friendly to human cultivators. Why...
She was moved and said, "Fellow Daoist, the three of us have urgent matters to attend to and cannot delay. I hope the Baishi tribe can be lenient. We will pay double the toll..."
Black Hawk snorted coldly: "No need! You cunning humans, don't try to deceive us with sweet words. No matter how much food you give us, it can't buy the health of our tribesmen!"
Ji Qingzhou extracted the key information from Black Hawk with just a few words.
She asked, "Are the people of the White Rock tribe sick?"
"Sick? No!"
Hearing this, Black Hawk became even angrier: "It's poisoning! Despicable humans poisoned the weak young men in our tribe!"
She let out a sharp whistle and flapped her huge wings even harder, trying to use the strong wind to drive away the three annoying humans.
at this time--
"I am an alchemist and I know medical skills."
Ji Qingzhou's words were like pressing the pause button on Black Hawk.
The black eagle, which had been flapping its wings to express its hostility, suddenly became less agile. Its sharp eagle eyes stared at Ji Qingzhou, but it did not speak rashly.
Seeing that she was interested, Ji Qingzhou said, "If the Baishi tribe does not require tolls, I can help treat the tribesmen in exchange for the opportunity to pass through Baishiling."
Black Hawk stared at Ji Qingzhou, as if he wanted to stare through this seemingly weak human being with his eyes.
After a while, she spoke: "You swear! Swear on your inner demon! You are going to heal the boys of the tribe, not to hurt them!"
Seeing that she was completely convinced by him, Ji Qingzhou did not hesitate and immediately swore an oath: "I, Ji Qingzhou, swear that I will go to the Baishi tribe to save people...save monsters, and not to hurt them in any way."
Black Hawk looked at the other two again.
Liu Furuo and Xie Ziye also swore that they would not actively harm the residents of the Baishi tribe.
Black Hawk then said, "You wait here, I will go back and ask the priest."
After saying that, the black eagle flapped its wings and flew towards Baishiling. It quickly turned into a black dot and disappeared into the white rocks.
Ji Qingzhou and the other two waited patiently for a while before Black Hawk reappeared. She said to them, "Follow me."
After saying that, Black Hawk led the way in front, and Ji Qingzhou drove the spirit boat to follow.
As soon as he entered Baishiling, Ji Qingzhou clearly felt that the wind around him was more fierce, mixed with cold and misty mountain lime, and the air was very dry.
The wind whistled through the mountains and passed through the cracks in the rocks, making strange noises, like the strange howls of unknown wild beasts.
Ji Qingzhou's eyes swept across the rocks, and occasionally he could see a pair or several pairs of bright and faintly glowing eyes quietly looking at the outsiders, in some caves that were either naturally formed or artificially carved out of the rocks.
"The poison seems to be contagious. Many young men have been infected. In order to prevent the weaker demons from being infected, the priest asked them to stay at home during this period of time and not go out."
Black Hawk snorted coldly when he said this: "It's all because of you cunning humans! Those weak little demons usually have to eat one meal a day and rely on collecting tolls and helping monks to earn some food. Now they are all staying at home, and many demons haven't had a full meal for a long time!"
Ji Qingzhou was a little helpless when he suddenly encountered racial discrimination: "What's your name, fellow Taoist?"
Although Black Hawk saw that their noses were not noses and eyes were not eyes, he still answered: "My name is Storm! My mother is the strongest demon among the Wind Eagle warriors, so she named me Storm, which can destroy everything!"
"Brother Storm."
Ji Qingzhou said: "I remember that your Baishi tribe is an alliance of more than ten kinds of demon tribes, right?"
Storm was confused: "Of course."
This is not a secret, so it’s okay to tell Ji Qingzhou.
"There are more than ten kinds of monsters, at least 100,000 monsters."
Ji Qingzhou asked, "Can you guarantee that these 100,000 monsters are all good monsters, have never harmed their own race or outsiders, and have never done anything bad?"
Feng Bao choked and wanted to say that all the monsters in their Bai Shi tribe were good monsters and would never do bad things.
But she is not some uneducated and naive little demon. She is also a warrior of the tribe. She has seen countless bloody and cruel realities and knows that demons are fickle.
Feng Bao's conscience prevented her from refutating Ji Qingzhou, but she did not admit it directly. She just snorted, "What do you want to say?"
“I would say that it’s the same with people.”
Ji Qingzhou said calmly, "I can only ensure that I stay true to the right path and don't do anything that would offend my conscience, but I can't stop people from going astray."
"The merits I have accumulated from doing good deeds will not be counted on them, and the retribution they deserve for doing bad things should not fall on me."
Ji Qingzhou looked at Feng Bao's back as he led the way, and asked with a smile, "Are you right, Brother Feng Bao?"
