The Secret Way of Immortality
#138 - Forbidden Zone, Giant's Kitchen
Not many Jail Guards were heading to An'nan Town, only three including Ren Qing, plus one reserve, mainly because An'nan Town also had its own Jail Guards.
Ren Qing made a point of going to the outside of the south city gate early to wait, and by the way, released the husky from the prison in his stomach.
The husky's body length was now more than four meters, its fluffy fur coupled with its adorable appearance made it completely different from a wild wolf.
As soon as it reached the outside world, it became extremely excited, constantly jumping up and down.
Ren Qing's eyes carried a warning, and the ghost shadow under his feet extended out, directly merging into the silly dog's shadow, allowing for indirect control.
The husky's expression became surprised and uncertain, and then it quieted down.
When Huang Ziwan and the other two arrived at the city gate, they saw the wolf-like but not-wolf-like husky, and their expressions suddenly seemed a little dull.
Originally, he had planned to walk for a few days to persevere, but he didn't expect Ren Qing to get a beast with a bluffing appearance from somewhere.
Lu Xiaoyu followed behind Huang Ziwan with her mouth wide open.
Because her术法 involved vegetation, she was transferred to An'nan Town as a reserve to earn some blood crystals.
Ren Qing took the lead in climbing onto the husky's back, feeling as if he were sitting on a sofa, and the fur could also block the cold wind.
"Let's go, it's easy to attract unnecessary trouble when there are too many people."
Huang Ziwan decisively climbed onto the dog's back, which was much better than going to An'nan Town on foot.
Lu Xiaoyu had no choice but to do the same.
Huang Ziwan patted the husky, feeling that the meat was firm and that the scent it emitted had a unique meaty fragrance.
"Old Brother Ren, this… wolf of yours grew up by feeding on the flesh and blood of cultivators, right?"
The husky showed no警觉 at all, its tail constantly wagging.
"That's right, it's enough to be used as a mount."
Ren Qing tapped the husky's head: "Let's go, go to An'nan Town along the official road, it will take at most two or three days if we don't stop day and night."
Husky (-`ェ´-)
After the black shadow merged into the husky's shadow, although it couldn't completely control its behavior, it could more or less influence it.
The husky sprinted forward like crazy, and after adapting to the fabricated术法, it shuttled through the official road paved with gravel like a phantom.
Ren Qing used the ghost shadow to attach himself to the husky's back, and then closed his eyes to cultivate.
Relying on the primary and secondary divided souls of the Gemini Nightmares, plus the protection of the ghost shadow, he could react in time even if he was suddenly attacked.
Huang Ziwan and the others were a little apprehensive at first, but soon they rested on the dog's back.
However, they couldn't be as unscrupulous as Ren Qing.
Traveling like this was also convenient.
Wild beasts didn't dare to approach, the husky's size couldn't be covered even by trees, and a huge shadow was formed as it passed.
Occasionally there were a few pedestrians on the official road, and they were frightened when they saw the husky galloping past.
Ren Qing thought that he could reach An'nan Town unconsciously while visualizing the术法.
But the husky's speed suddenly slowed down, until it stopped in the center of a crossroads on the official road.
Huang Ziwan opened his eyes and looked at the empty mountains and forests in front of him with a puzzled expression, and couldn't help but become nervous.
Ren Qing tried to appease the husky.
He thought that the silly dog was a little exhausted because of the continuous travel.
But the husky kept staring at the mountains and forests, baring its teeth and making dog barks that it would only make when facing a mortal enemy.
Ren Qing's emotions couldn't help but become serious.
It should be known that the husky had swallowed the blood of the ghost wolf, and its beastly instincts were enough to detect prey within dozens of miles.
His mind moved slightly.
The ghost shadow stretched out like a rope, and then searched for clues.
Unfortunately, there was still no gain.
Huang Ziwan jumped off the dog's back and said in a low voice: "This place is close to Anshan outside An'nan Town, maybe Zhang Mu disappeared nearby."
He asked hesitantly: "Have you noticed anything wrong?"
"Not really."
Ren Qing turned to look at the husky, and it was obviously unrealistic to communicate with the silly dog.
Lu Xiaoyu didn't dare to say much, she followed the two Jail Guards closely, for fear of encountering unmanageable danger due to carelessness.
Huang Ziwan couldn't help but said: "This place should have nothing to do with the forbidden area, otherwise, if the阴差境 took action, how could they not have noticed even the slightest clue."
Ren Qing asked: "What exactly did Zhang Mu disappear because of?"
Lu Xiaowu blurted out: "It's 玉藻草…"
Huang Ziwan explained: "That's a more famous spice, because it often grows by the roadside nearby, it is said that Zhang Mu went to pick it at that time, but he never came back."
"Later, the Jail Guards checked all the 玉藻草 within hundreds of miles, but did not find the so-called forbidden area."
After hearing this, Ren Qing took out the yellowed note.
He handed the note to Huang Ziwan: "Smell it, does it smell like 玉藻草?"
Huang Ziwan put it to his nose, and sure enough, there was a very faint fragrance of 玉藻草, this inexplicable connection made his back feel cold.
He hesitated for a few breaths, and put a corner of the note in his mouth and sipped it.
Huang Ziwan's pupils shrank into pinholes.
He didn't know what he saw, his eyes became dull, his cheeks bulged subconsciously, and venom was brewing in his mouth.
Ren Qing quickly took the note away, and Huang Ziwan came back to his senses.
Huang Ziwan said with a wry smile: "The Jail Guards collected the notes before, they probably didn't notice… the strangeness in them."
He swallowed and continued: "Countless lines composed of pictures appeared in front of my eyes, although I couldn't see clearly, it was obviously about that unknown forbidden area."
"It should only be in specific areas that you can detect the abnormality through the note."
Ren Qing picked up the note.
The note was the size of a palm, and Huang Ziwan only touched the corner.
He tried to put the other side of the note in his mouth, and his tongue immediately tasted a strange spice, a bit like mint.
As the taste spread on the tip of his tongue, Ren Qing's eyes became slightly hot.
Suddenly, the noise in the mountains and forests gradually disappeared.
Black and white lines appeared in mid-air, constructing a picture of unknown content, like a floating ink painting.
The lines were intertwined and twisted, making people dizzy.
The double pupils in Ren Qing's eyes began to turn, the original double pupils could involve the Disaster Elimination Forbidden Area, let alone the Gemini Nightmares.
The most⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥is⊥at⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥release!
However, this time he was more careful, for fear that his soul would accidentally enter the forbidden area again.
The lines then changed, and the picture became orderly, and he could vaguely see that it seemed to be in a very dark kitchen.
Ren Qing couldn't help but feel suspicious, but it was normal for the forbidden area to show any form.
He noticed that the kitchen seemed to be magnified dozens of times, the stove was like a mountain peak, and even a bowl of water was like a small lake.
Steam was coming out of the stove, as if something was being steamed inside.
"What kind of strange object is used as the core to construct it?"
Ren Qing wanted to see more clearly, but the aftertaste on the tip of his tongue had dissipated, and the picture in front of him slowly disappeared.
The note spontaneously combusted.
Huang Ziwan was about to remind Ren Qing, but the latter waved his hand, obviously still retaining consciousness under the action of the primary and secondary souls.
Ren Qing still stared at it, and saw a huge giant walking towards the stove.
The giant's body was made of moldy rice, mixed with countless maggots, similar to the herb-collecting giant in the Disaster Elimination Forbidden Area.
The lid of the pot on the stove was lifted, and hot air rushed out of it.
There was only a bowl of steamed pork with rice flour.
The meat was sliced into thin slices using broken limbs as ingredients, and the original layer of fried rice was replaced with human eyeballs.
The giant finally sprinkled some 玉藻草.
When Ren Qing saw those eyeballs, he suddenly thought of the River Mud Society.
If Fei Long really swallowed dozens or hundreds of eyeballs, even if he didn't approach the Ghost Envoy Realm, the异化 of his body should be very obvious.
Could it be that the lines on Fei Long's body are indeed related to the forbidden area, and the giant is collecting ingredients?
How does it feel a bit absurd.
But forbidden areas cannot be measured by ordinary people's logic, maybe his guess is closer to the truth.
Ren Qing opened his eyes, and Huang Ziwan asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, Lao Huang, you should have a blood heart, contact the nearby Jail Guards."
Huang Ziwan took out the blood heart from his arms, and it began to beat rapidly after he pinched it with his hand.
In half a stick of incense, several Jail Guards arrived at Ren Qing's location, led by the White Maiden holding a long sword.
Ren Qing explained everything he saw to them, including the abnormality on Fei Long's body, and it was none of his business how to deal with it.
The Yin Messenger Realm people would naturally have a headache.
The White Maiden was very interested in the husky, but did not make things difficult for Huang Ziwan and the others.
After all, they still had to go to An'nan Town, although there were still some days before the 彼岸花 bloomed, it was definitely better to arrive as early as possible.
The flowering period of the 彼岸花 is only ten days, and it cannot be exposed to filth and blood, so the risk of transporting it through the Avici Hell is not small.
Being able to prepare in An'nan Town in advance also represents a smaller risk.
The husky took advantage of the free time to eat dozens of pounds of flesh and blood obtained from hunting, and then ran wildly in the direction of An'nan Town.
From dawn to dusk, after passing through the mountainous area, the prototype of An'nan Town could already be seen.
The population of the entire An'nan Town is not large, it is the smallest of the three main towns in Xiangxiang, with only about 30,000 people.
But the fields are the most, you can see pieces and pieces at a glance, but now it is just after the cold winter, so it has not been planted yet.
It can be said that at least 50% of the grain in the entire Xiangxiang comes from An'nan Town, and the remaining 30% comes from the terraced fields of Heshan Town.
The permanent Jail Guards will use the convenience of Avici Hell to mobilize grain.
Even if there are occasional droughts and rain disasters,术法 can ensure that there will be no major chaos, so as to maintain the stability of the Xiangxiang situation.
Ren Qing looked towards the mountain bag north of An'nan Town, even in the cold winter, there were still a large area of flowers and plants growing, it should be the 彼岸花.
He then used the double pupils to observe, and couldn't help but gasp.
Each 彼岸花 was black and gray, and contained remnant souls, as if the growth could not be without the irrigation of souls.
The mountain bag where the 彼岸花 was planted was clearly a huge rib bone, it should have been dismantled from the Avici Hell.
Ren Qing finally understood why they chose to plant 彼岸花 in An'nan Town.
The rib bone of the Ksitigarbha was actually used to store remnant souls, and I don't know how many were gathered inside, as long as someone died nearby, they would be absorbed.
Huang Ziwan saw what Ren Qing was thinking, he said lightly: "There is no reincarnation in the world, when people die, their souls dissipate like a lamp goes out."
"Of course, cultivators are an exception, our souls will be devoured by strange objects."
