Chapter 96: The Loneliness of the Time Traveller
Outside the Youtian Valley, Lu Heng and three others slowly emerged from the fog and went straight to the outside of the mountain.
Lu Heng didn't know the worry of the human-faced owl.
Even if he knew it, he could only sigh in silence. Why did no one believe the truth these days?
People can only believe what they want to believe.
As for the white fog that enveloped the Youtian Valley, it has begun to dissipate gradually.
The source of the white mist that covers the whole valley is the water of the spring in the valley. However, now all the water in the spring is collected in the Requiem Seal. Without the source of the cold air, the fog in the valley will gradually become unsustainable.
Although the process of dispersal may not be so fast, it would take about a year and a half.
And when all the mists are completely dissipated, the Youtian Valley, which once had horrible rumors, will become an ordinary valley.
Of course, this is not a bad thing.
The cold evil Qi in the Youtian Valley gathered many souls who died tragically nearby and bound them here.
However, this valley is not a real netherworld after all. Those souls may have some consciousness in the beginning. But with the passage of time, these souls will quickly forget the memories and feelings they were born with, leaving only the deepest resentment and instinct, jealousy and resentment against those who live.
Until the moment the souls dissipated, the souls in these mists were tortured in resentment and pain.
It is precisely because of the hatred and jealousy towards the living that the ghosts in the Youtian Valley attack living people.
Now, the disappearance of the Youtian Valley is a relief for these tortured souls.
Lu Heng knows this in his heart, so he has no sense of guilt for his unintentional destruction of a "Historic site".
After he left Youtian valley with Huo Feng and Xiao Ai, he went directly to the Youzhi city outside the mountain.
Lu Heng said, "Now let's go to the Fushan city in the south. After I have finished the karma in the past, we can go to the South Sea."
When walking out of the mountain, Lu Heng looked around nervously and confirmed that there was no red haired woman waiting in the wilderness. He was relieved.
It seems that the red woman has stopped pestering.
Although he didn't know the reason for the other party's entanglement, Lu Heng could feel that the red haired woman's cultivation was extremely high, which gave him an indescribable sense of oppression.
You know, even the two priests of the Li tribe have never given Lu Heng this feeling.
Therefore, Lu Heng is very cautious. Since he doesn't want to offend this mysterious woman, he doesn't want to entangle with her.
Huo Feng asked, "Lord Wolf God, do we have to go in a hurry?"
When asked this, Huo Feng became worried.
Now that he has lost all his cultivation, it's really hard for him to lie on the back of the Bo horse and cross the mountains.
The Wolf God gave him some peach blossom wine on the first night. Later, he deliberately took care of him and slowed down his speed when he can't keep up. As a result, every time Huo Feng's experience bumps and tiredness a little wine are just enough for him to bear, he doesn't need to take peach blossom wine at all.
Huo Feng is bitter in his heart, and he really doesn't want to drive fast any more.
Lu Heng glanced at him and said with a smile, "Now that we've got rid of the red haired woman, let's travel all the way south. It's just right to see the scenery of the southern plain."
"The water system is well developed and the vehicles and boats are crisscross. This water town in the South has quite a different style, which is worth a good visit."
Lu Heng's words relieved Huo Feng, who hurriedly introduced them.
"The Wolf God is right. The water town in the south of the Fire Pass Country is indeed quite unique."
"And so, we walk all the way down south. After we arrive at Youji city, we can take a boat from Youji city. Only through travelling in a different way, can we fully experience the softness of this southern water town."
"Sitting in a boat, going down the river, watching the green mountains on both sides retreat, and eating a few fish in the river is also quite a leisurely journey."
In order to help the Wolf God master strengthen his determination to play, Huo Feng gave a good introduction to the advantages and interests of taking a boat.
Lu Heng shook his head and thought of the tour guide in the past.
"OK, OK, let's go to Youji City to transfer to a boat and go down to the mountain in the south," Lu Heng said with a smile. "There's no need to introduce it. I already know that traveling by boat can be quite the pleasurable experience."
Huo Feng smiled and scratched his head.
In this way, the two people, a wolf and a Bo horse went straight to the wharf of Youji city.
However, although the wharf is located outside the city, there are not many ships and merchants. In order not to meet some unlucky cultivators, Lu Heng and Xiao Ai didn't go to the dock, but went down the river and waited for Huo Feng to find a boat to pick them up.
Anyways, among them, only Huo Feng had Fire Pass Country coins which can be used to charter the boat south.
Under the sunshine in the afternoon, the wind is strong along the river.
In this sweltering summer, only the wind along the river can make people feel a little cool.
Unconsciously, Lu Heng has realized, they had left Hanyu mountain for more than a month.
Lu Heng said with a smile, "I wonder how that White Ape, Sun Yan is doing in the mountains. If the peaches in the peach garden are ripe, I'm afraid we will only see empty branches when we go back."
Xiao Ai shook her head and said, "I think Sun Yan would not dare. Although it is naughty, it has dignity. It could not touch the peach without your permission, Lord Wolf God… And the peach should have not matured for a while."
Lu Heng sighed and said, "I understand too, but… Alas…"
In this strange world, no one can pick up a joke or understand it. It's really boring.
After all, Sun Yan is not the real "Monkey King" in the famous novel "The Journey to the West".
Looking at Xiao Ai's serious face, Lu Heng shook his head with a wry smile, somewhat disappointed.
To tell the truth, Lu Heng's asking Sun Yan to guard the peach garden is actually a bit bad taste.
Unfortunately, these stories cannot be shared with Xiao Ai.
After all, there is no heaven, no netherworld, and no difference between cultivators and mortals. Cultivators wander in the world of mortals, sleep and eat with ordinary people, and even the method of cultivation can be seen everywhere. As long as there is a fate, anyone can learn it.
Even if Lu Heng's stories were told, no one would understand or believe them.
And Lu Heng is afraid that if he randomly tells a few myths and stories, then the content of these stories will be twisted into strange things by the people of this world.
Therefore, many jokes and amusements can only be entertained by Lu Heng himself.
"Alas… Helpless, helpless," Lu Heng shook his head and sighed. "I hope the journey to Fushan city can have a good result."
With this, Lu Heng looked at the direction of Fushan city behind the mountains and could not help but smile bitterly.
That's what he said, but Lu Heng has no confidence in his heart.
After all, under the entanglement of karma, he actually has some feelings.
It's not so easy to repay the kindness after arriving in Fushan city.
The road ahead is hard…
Fortunately, he picked up the Requiem Seal, so he had a new self-defensive means. Even if he meets a powerful enemy, he is not afraid for the time being.
