By the campfire, the little girl held the small bowl full of chicken and threw it away. The steaming bowl flew to the forest not far away, hovering over the canopy, just in front of the ape.
Seeing this scene, the ape, who had been greedy for a long time, screamed with excitement, and ran away with the steaming bowl of chicken in his arms.
Quickly disappeared into the forest.
Seeing this scene, Huo Feng was a little surprised.
Xiao Ai, who has always had a cold personality, actually took the initiative to invite the wild monkey to eat? He can't understand something.
Lu Heng watched this scene quietly, shook his head, and did not speak.
And after Xiao Ai watched the ape leave, she didn't say much. She sat aside with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword on her back, crossed her knees and closed her eyes, and continued to practice.
It seemed that everything she had just done had no effect on her.
But Lu Heng sighed and said, "Xiao Ai."
The little girl opened her eyes and looked at the wolf god, only to see the wolf god looking at her with a smile.
"Walk with me," said the man in white, and then walked outside first.
Xiao Ai was at a loss, but she hurriedly followed.
As for Huo Feng and Gu Yan, they stayed to clean up the leftovers by the campfire and clean the pot.
The cold moonlight falls in the mountains.
After getting away from the light of the bonfire, Lu Heng and Xiao Ai stepped on the fine moonlight, and what they saw was a steep mountain scattered with faint silver light.
There are many scattered trees growing on the cliff facing it.
In those cliff caves, there are birds, but there are also beasts.
This Falling Dragon Mountain Range is dangerous, but there is no shortage of life.
When Lu Heng and the others came to the edge of the cliff, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the wailing of the monkeys sounded again in the mountains and forests.
The sound of ape's chirping, which seemed to be very sad, sounded in this dark mountain, and there was an inexplicable and distant emptiness.
Lu Heng turned back with a smile, looked at the little girl behind him, and said, "Are you homesick?"
Under the moonlight, the little girl with silver-haired animal ears was startled, but she shook her head and said seriously, "Xiao Ai doesn't want to go home."
This answer surprised Lu Heng.
Because he could feel that Xiao Ai was telling the truth.
But some of this little girl's recent performance seems to be missing Hanyu Mountain...
But seeing the little girl looking at Lu Heng, she said seriously, "Where is Lord Wolf God, Xiao Ai's home is... So Xiao Ai doesn't want home, because Lord Wolf God is Xiao Ai's home."
The words that the little girl suddenly said made Lu Heng stunned for a moment.
Afterwards, there were some tears.
This little girl, who is not very old, said something interesting.
It seems that the mother who taught her how to read and write was also a wonderful person.
Lu Heng smiled and said, "Even if you don't want to go home, but Sun Yan, are you always worried? That monkey head is alone in the mountains, I don't know if he can take care of himself."
At the end, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh.
Some are speechless.
When he and Xiao Ai left Hanyu Mountain, the mountains were in full bloom, and it was the time of spring.
Looking back now, it is already late autumn. All things wither, and winter is coming.
One person and one wolf have been staying outside this mountain for half a year without knowing it.
And Sun Yan's monkey head has lived alone in the mountains for more than half a year. Although he asked the Kaze Department to take care of him when he left, I don't know what happened to the monkey head.
Lu Heng's sigh made Xiao Ai silent for a while.
Then the little girl said, "Xiao Ai is only worried about whether the monkey head has been lazy in his practice, and whether he has collected the corn in the field well."
"If the sanitation of the temple is not cleaned frequently, it is easy to accumulate dust."
Xiao Ai said, "And the guard of the Taoyuan, if this monkey head is not careful, let the birds and beasts in the mountains go to peck the peach fruit..."
At the end, Xiao Ai's eyes were slightly cold, and she seemed to be thinking about how to take care of the lazy white ape.
Lu Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He kept shaking his head and said, "You are too strict with that monkey head... Ha..."
Shaking his head, Lu Heng said, "The hozen's nature is to escape. But Sun Yan has changed a little. Maybe we have been away for so long this time, and the loneliness in the mountains can still inspire him to let that monkey head... hey..."
Lu Heng wanted to comfort Xiao Ai, but as he talked, he lost confidence in himself.
One man and one wolf stared at each other silently.
In the end, there was a long sigh.
Shaking his head at the same time.
After a while, Lu Heng said with a wry smile, "If the monkey head doesn't live up to its expectations and is really lazy and playful, you can take care of him as much as you like. I won't care this time."
Lu Heng's words made the little girl's eyes light up.
Xiao Ai nodded immediately and said, "Xiao Ai obeys!"
That eloquent answer, although the expression on his face was still cold, but vaguely, he could feel the little girl's excited mood.
Lu Heng smiled, but sighed in his heart, silently praying for the monkey head in the mountain.
At the same time, Hanyu Mountain.
Sitting cross-legged in front of the Wolf Temple, the white ape shuddered and woke up.
"Gee? Gee?"
Under the moonlight, White Ape looked at the darkness around him with some trepidation.
For some reason, at that moment just now, he suddenly felt a sense of impending disaster...
Chapter 142 South Sea City
After leaving the Falling Dragon Mountains, what appeared in front of Lu Heng and the others was the vast plain and another big city standing on the plain.
On the way into the mountain, from time to time, I can bump into a group of merchants entering the mountain.
Although the blockade of Chidao was lifted, some time has passed. But the main road of north-south traffic is still lively.
Lu Heng and his party were in it, but it didn't seem abrupt.
According to Huo Feng's words, after completely leaving the Falling Dragon Mountains, all the way to the south is a flat road, and there are no steep mountains.
Although there will be some hills and hills along the way, they are far from the steepness of the Falling Dragon Mountains.
Standing outside the mountain, Huo Feng looked back at the huge mountain range behind him and said with emotion.
"In the past, I heard that the Falling Dragon Mountain Range was the place where the ancient dragons were buried, and it was only a rumor. This time, I believed it a little bit."
Huo Feng's emotion made Lu Heng a little interested.
"Oh? Brother Huo is referring to... the friend Zhulong mentioned?" Lu Heng asked.
When Torch Dragon appeared before, he mentioned that he came to this Falling Dragon Mountain Range to pay homage to old acquaintances.
Huo Feng and Lu Heng both had guesses in their hearts.
Huo Feng didn't hide it, nodded and said, "The old acquaintance mentioned by the senior Zhulong must be a person from the ancient times. Even if it is not the real dragon, it has something to do with the dragon mountain range."
"The most important thing is that the appearance of the Falling Dragon Mountain Range is indeed too abrupt. On this endless southern plain, this extremely wide and unreasonably steep mountain range appears strange and unreasonable."
Huo Feng said, and couldn't help but sigh, "If the legend is true, how powerful is the flying dragon in the Falling Dragon Mountain Range! Even the mountain range that the corpses turned into can block the north and the south, spanning thousands of miles... So huge The figure is really appalling."
Lu Heng smiled and said, "Brother Huo will have a bright future with this recast of Taoism. It is impossible to say that one day in the future, Brother Huo will be able to have such power... Don't be envious."
Lu Heng's half-joking and half-serious words made Huo Feng shake his head with a wry smile and wave his hands again and again.
"Senior Wolf God, don't make fun of it, this junior knows his own family affairs. Cloud Sect's cultivation is easy to learn, but difficult to master, and it becomes more difficult as you go on."
"Not to mention that you can have such power, even if you can learn something in the future and not lose a city of witches, the junior will be satisfied."
Huo Feng said this, and Lu Heng stopped talking about it.
But in Lu Heng's heart, he was really optimistic about this Yunmen youth named Huo Feng.
Even so, Huo Feng can only be regarded as a first-time practitioner, and his cultivation is not as good as that of Xiao Ai.
But in terms of the future, this seemingly ordinary Huo Feng may be the most worth looking forward to among the three of Xiao Ai and Gu Yan.
The Dao Heart after his recast has long been different from ordinary people.
Perhaps because of the impact of the power of the thunder, Huo Feng was greatly affected. Vaguely, Lu Heng could sense the cold sword intent in Huo Feng's heart.
In Huo Feng's recast Dao Xin Sword Intent, there seems to be a hint of the power of Tianlei, but it is different from the real Tianlei.
And although Huo Feng admitted frankly about the Dao on the Daoyan, he hardly understood anything and gained nothing.
But in fact, the trace of sword intent in his heart became more and more condensed.
It's just that Huo Feng, who is now all broken and unable to practice, can't feel it.
Only when he repairs the wounds of his body in the future and starts to practice again will he realize that he is unusual.
But at that time, he may have separated from Lu Heng.
So this matter should be treated as a little surprise in the future, and Lu Heng didn't say it.
Shaking his head with a smile, Lu Heng sat on the back of the white wolf, closed his eyes, and continued to deduce the method of cultivation.
Because it was too early to leave the mountain, there was no need to enter the city to stay overnight, so everyone directly crossed the big city outside the mountain and continued south.
After arriving in the southern plains where the water is spread all over, not only the mountains and forests have become low, but even the wild beasts raging in the wilderness are much less.
However, the reduction of alien beasts does not mean that the wild is safe.
On the southern plain with developed water systems and swamps, every river, every river, and even the seemingly ordinary shallow ditches on the roadside, may have ferocious water beasts.
All kinds of strange water monsters and fishes were eye-opening for Lu Heng.
In addition, the water system on this plain is fragmented. Although there are many small rivers and streams, they are not as vast and deep as the Pangjiang River, nor are there any rivers and water gods like the ancient Zhou Dynasty.
In the wilderness full of small rivers and streams, because there is no one to suppress and administer, strange beasts, monsters and fish unscrupulously attack the living creatures that come and go. Order is the most primitive and barbaric predator.
Even a cultivator like Xiao Ai who has a cultivation base will be attacked if he is not careful.
It was the sixth day after they left the Falling Dragon Mountains. When they were camping at night, Xiao Ai saw a translucent luminous swimming fish in a stream not far away, so she looked over curiously.
However, the moment the little girl walked to the stream and lowered her head, the luminous swimming fish, which was originally only the size of a palm, suddenly opened her mouth. The palm-sized little fish actually opened a mouth full of one meter in diameter, and swallowed Xiao Ai, who was caught off guard, into his belly.
After Xiao Ai was swallowed into the belly of the fish, the palm-sized swimming fish returned to its normal size.
When Lu Heng and the others ran over to check, they saw a little girl who had shrunk many times in the translucent belly of the glowing fish swimming in the stream with cold eyes.
Facing the strange fish that swallowed her, the little girl didn't say much, just raised her right hand, and her fingertips popped out sharp claws...
In the end, when Xiao Ai burst out of the fish's belly, her body was wet and looked a little embarrassed, but her figure returned to normal.
In that scene, Lu Hengzhi couldn't stop laughing.
Huo Feng wanted to laugh too, but was kicked by the cold eyes of the little girl, but he didn't dare to smile.
After that, the water beasts and monsters that Lu Heng and the others encountered on their way suffered.
Once approaching Lu Heng and the others, the little girl with silver-haired beast ears bluntly shot and killed them directly, instead of driving them away.
This way south, on the contrary, he beheaded a few vicious beasts entrenched near Chidao.
One of them even hung a bounty in Nanhai City and attacked and killed many vicious creatures.
While Huo Feng sighed at this, he couldn't help shrinking his neck, feeling fortunate in his heart.
Fortunately, I didn't laugh out loud that day, otherwise...
In the end, after all the toss and bustle, Lu Heng and the others finally crossed the southern plain with a long road and arrived at a large city in the southernmost part of the Fire Tong Kingdom before the heavy snow fell.
South Sea City.
Here, it is the most lively port for going south to the sea, and it is also an important place for the Huotong Nation and the South China Sea countries to open markets and mutual trade.
When Lu Heng and the others walked into Nanhai City, what they saw was a completely different scene from the north.
All kinds of people of different races are walking in the street market. Xiao Ai, the little girl with silver hair and animal ears, is no longer awkward in it.
