Chapter 86: Red-Haired Woman
After hearing Huo Feng's explanation, Xiao Ai also understood the existence of the wizard, so she put down her worry and returned to the campfire and sat down.
After the wizard left, the mountain became quiet and nothing strange happened again.
The little girl closed her eyes with her knees crossed and didn't open her eyes again until after dawn.
The bonfire in the cave has been extinguished at this time, and even the charcoal has cooled down.
In the cold breeze in the morning, Huo Feng was standing next to the Bo horse. He reached out and took two pieces of bread from the bag on the Bo horse's back. He ate it with cold water and this was his breakfast.
As for Xiao Ai and Lu Heng, they don't have the habit of eating breakfast, so Huo Feng didn't bother them.
Lu Heng looked at the blue sky outside and said with a smile, "Today's weather is good, sunny, suitable for traveling."
Huo Feng, who was eating bread, gave a wry smile and shook his head. If it had been before, he would have said something.
But he has lost all his cultivation base, and the blazing sunshine under the bright sky was now hard for him to bear.
But even so, he had to get on the road.
After Huo Feng took a short rest, they set foot on the journey south again.
Not long after walking away from the mountain, Lu Heng and others saw the crowd and rice fields again.
Although it has not yet gone out of the boundary monument, it is actually far away from Baishi city.
The village beside the road is not large, with only 20 families. However, this small-scale village is common within the boundary monument of Baishi city.
For example, a large village with hundreds of people in a village like Shuisheng village will not appear here.
After all, there is only so much suitable land. Many barren mountains cannot grow crops, and there are too many people to feed.
For example, this small village in front of them is like this. There are few fields suitable for planting crops outside the village. Although the rice fields are green, it's limited to feeding these 20 families.
If Shuisheng village is not backed by the river outside Hanyu mountain and the vast plain outside the village which is very suitable for planting rice, it can't feed so many villagers.
When they came out of the mountain, the villagers who were working in the rice fields were startled.
However, they stepped on the ridges between the rice fields and went straight towards the road without attacking the villagers. Seeing that the two people and wolf were just passing by, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.
Then there was a deep curiosity.
The villagers working in the fields are secretly looking at Xiao Ai's strange appearance of silver hair and ears, and guess what the origin of the little girl is.
As for Lu Heng, although he seems to be larger than ordinary wolves, a larger wolf doesn't attract attention in this world full of beasts.
Until Lu Heng left the rice fields in the mountains and set foot on the southward road again, no one among the villagers paid attention to the white wolf.
However, this is exactly what Lu Heng wants. Otherwise, if he wants to attract attention, he can directly show his real body shape. A white wolf bigger than a country house can definitely scare all the villagers along the road.
The journey to the South was a little boring. As they walked out of the boundary monument of Baishi City, the beasts on both sides of the road became more and more.
At noon, Lu Heng met a group of merchants who also went south. A total of more than 40 people, all fully armed, were surrounding a white tiger under the slope of the roadside.
Several people in the team were injured. It must be that this tiger lay prone in the field and ambushed the caravan, but it didn't work. After hurting people, it was surrounded by the caravan.
When Lu Heng, Xiao Ai, and Huo Feng passed by, the fierce and terrifying tiger was roaring angrily, and the tiger's roar made people's scalp numb.
But compared with the fierce and terrifying roar, the tiger has been covered with wounds and was at death's door.
Now people surround and don't kill, but they are afraid of the tiger's death struggle, so they plan to consume the tiger's physical strength first.
Once this big tiger is exhausted and no longer vicious, it will be rushed up by everyone and hacked to death
Lu Heng glanced at it roughly and left without stopping to watch the play.
Although there were a large number of precious materials and books, there were no cultivators
However, the 40 people are all armed. As such caravans walk in the wilderness, even if there are no cultivators following them, most of demons dare not provoke them.
The caravan was shocked by Lu Heng's appearance.
People who dare walk alone in the wilderness are by no means existences that can be provoked. However, seeing as Lu Heng and his companions were leaving and didn't seem to have any intention to stay, they let out a sigh of relief.
After passing the caravan that surrounded and killed the tiger, Lu Heng didn't see a second caravan on their southward drive.
The road was desolate and empty. Some beasts were lying in the roadside trees and wanted to ambush but immediately ran away after being intimidated by the little girl's cold glance.
But in the evening, faint footsteps rang out behind them.
Lu Heng looked back and found that it was a red-haired woman.
In the afterglow of the sunset, the woman hummed a strange song in her mouth, carrying a wine gourd in one hand, walking up the road at a loose pace, and didn't have any companions around.
Her long red hair, tied behind her head, was uninhibited and loose.
She followed them and poured a sip of wine into her mouth from time to time. It was estimated that she had drunk a jar of wine along the way.
Lu Heng wondered how that little gourd holds so much wine.
Huo Feng whispered, "Lord Wolf God, this woman seems to be following us…"
Lu Heng shook his head and said, "Trailing? She was obviously following after us… Have you ever seen such a blatant trailing?"
Huo Feng couldn't help laughing bitterly.
The woman has been tailing behind them, always keeping a far enough distance. Lu Heng moves faster, this woman moves faster, Lu Heng moves slower and she moves slower, it is clear that she is coming for them.
Xiao Ai glanced coldly at the rear and said, "Lord Wolf God, is she the demon of the Green Hell Cave…"
Her words contained awe-inspiring killing intent.
Lu Heng shook his head and said, "She's not a demon and by no means an ordinary person. Don't worry about her, if she likes to follow, let her be, she's harmless."
"If she really comes to us for something she will definitely take the initiative, so don't worry about it and let it go."
Lu Heng's words made Huo Feng nod with approval, and he also agreed with the Wolf God.
The red-haired woman behaved strangely, but she didn't look like a demon. The best approach to these kinds of cultivators is to put them aside temporarily.
Xiao Ai didn't say a word, but tightened the strap of the Heavenly Thunder Sword.
Grandpa Li Ju of the Wind Raiders Department said that no one in the world can compete with the power of the God Slaying Heavenly Thunder.
So as long as she keeps this Heavenly Thunder Sword, no one in the world can harm Lord Wolf God!
