Strange mountains and rivers

"Don't go out hunting for the time being, and don't go to Tianxing Valley either." Chen Huaisheng thought for a long time before talking to Fang Baoqi: "I know there shouldn't be a big problem over there in Tianxing Valley, but I don't want to take any more risks. This Yuntan Valley The trip taught us profound lessons that we will never forget.”

"But according to what you said, if this winter and spring are very dangerous, we may face the threat of monster attacks and cold weather, which means there will be a shortage of spiritual millet, jade, wheat and spiritual grass and animal meat. There is no time to stock up now. , If it is true that the situation will be as bad as you said until next year, then our preparations are far from enough, and it will be even more necessary to go hunting.”

"I know." Chen Huaisheng was also troubled.

According to what Ling Fan said, the situation in Yuntan Valley was not like this ten days ago, but just ten days later, the weather changed drastically, and third-level monsters began to appear. It was completely unexpected. Xinggou would not have appeared like this that day. What about the situation?

Fang Baoqi was an eighth-level Qi refining person. If he took Min Qingyu and Hu Delu with them, if they really encountered any danger, it would not be as simple as coming back with injuries. Otherwise, he would have to carry several corpses back.

"Wait a minute, I don't dare to let them go now. I have to go and take a look myself." Chen Huaisheng said helplessly.

"Originally, hunting is an experience for everyone. If you and I go there, then this kind of hunting will lose its most important meaning and become just the two of us hunting to get some prey." Fang Baoyi disagreed. : "I think we still have to go, but we should be better prepared."

"Oh?" Chen Huaisheng looked sideways at Fang Baoqi.

"The level of the spiritual realm and spells cannot be improved for a while, but they can be compensated for by some auxiliary equipment and means, such as magic weapons, spiritual talismans, elixirs, etc., especially some protective magic weapons. Although they are expensive, they are very effective. , I heard that the golden bamboo hat used by Chi Mei has been of great use. "

Chen Huaisheng heard the meaning of Fang Baoqi's words and seemed a little jealous?

Where did artifacts like the Golden Ruo Li come from? How come Xuan Chimei got it without anyone knowing?

Chen Huaisheng couldn't explain it for a while.

In the battle at the Donghe Fish Market, Chen Huaisheng had never told anyone about his killing of Qian Baichuan, especially since the Imperial Flag of Luck was involved later. If the Chonghua Sect knew about it, it would also bring some unnecessary trouble. trouble.

"Bao Qi, your suggestion is very pertinent, but where can I find such suitable magic weapons and talismans?" Chen Huaisheng pursed his lips, "The Zongmen Internal Affairs Office can undertake some customizations and can also buy some. , but it may not make people very satisfied. If you want to buy it in the market, it is difficult to buy it in Hebei. You have to go to Da Zhao. As time goes by, it is too late..."

"Huaisheng, if it is as you fear, the tide of monsters will continue to appear and threaten our survival in Yunzhongshan, then it will never be too late for us to buy it any time and what kind we buy. ”

Fang Baoqi's words made Chen Huaisheng shudder.

This statement hits the nail on the head. If the tide of monsters really lasts for a year and a half, the threat to Yunzhong Mountain will be too great. Not only must we rely on the mountain protection array, I am afraid that personal protection will also require a lot of Magical weapons and talismans come to enhance and maintain.

"What do you mean..." Chen Huaisheng followed the good advice, and once he accepted Fang Baoqi's suggestion, he was moved.

"On the one hand, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to purchase, including asking Uncle Gou to help customize some. On the other hand, you can go to Baita City or even Zhaigu Road and Youzhou to purchase some, so that you are prepared." Fang Baoqi was very determined at this time: "In addition, I always feel that if the wave of monsters you mentioned will affect or even impact us in Yunzhong Mountain, then it is better to experience it in advance and experience it. Even if you suffer some setbacks, it may not be a bad thing. Experience can sometimes save lives. "

"But if we encounter something like Yuntangu again,..." Chen Huaisheng sighed, "Forget it, let's wait until I meet the head master. There is also the matter of crossing the Mount, I am now They all feel in a dilemma.”

Yue'an Mountain has also been in contact with Chen Huaisheng, hoping to come and help as soon as possible.

The situation in the Great Crow Falcon Village was getting more and more rampant. Seeing that the Wei brothers were suppressed to the point where it was almost impossible to gain a foothold in Yue'an Mountain, they naturally became a little anxious.

But Chen Huaisheng really doesn't dare to take the situation lightly. It's still late summer and strange phenomena have already begun to appear. If this continues, it's hard to say what the situation will be like in the autumn and whether it will get worse.

Hebei is no better than Da Zhao. Each county has multiple sect families with certain strength. If something happens, they can still stick together or ask for help. But what about Hebei?

Each state road has a vast area, and the strength of the sects and aristocratic families is relatively weak. If something big really happens, it will be difficult to find reinforcements. Many times, you can only rely on yourself.

Because of this, Chen Huaisheng felt that on the one hand, he should make full preparations in advance, especially for winter food, and on the other hand, he should also remind the sect to attach great importance to it and plan countermeasures in advance.

Before going to Shang Jiuling's place, Chen Huaisheng went to Wu Tianen's place first.

After Wu Tianen got the blood of red crucian carp and prepared some elixirs, he stayed in seclusion for more than half a year and finally succeeded in attacking the third level of foundation building. Now Wu Tianen also knew that he would not be able to attack the fourth level of foundation building in a short time, so he just Practice magic in peace in the mountains.

Because he was alone, he didn't even build his own cave, but still enjoyed himself in a Taoist temple in Longlinyuan.

"Are you saying that you think there will be a large-scale wave of monsters this winter and next spring?"

Wu Tianen was a little careless and disapproving.

Chen Huaisheng had been saying this in front of him a few years ago, and he was getting tired of hearing it.

He was still quite nervous at first, but over the past few years, that's all.

It would be wrong to say that what Chen Huaisheng said was untrue, but it was not as big a deal as Chen Huaisheng feared.

It is almost the same as the wave of monster beasts a century ago, or even less than that. There are more monster beasts than in normal years. Occasionally, some high-level monsters appear, but they are all expected. After all, the past few years have indeed been During the outbreak of monster tide.

"Yes." Chen Huaisheng also felt Wu Tianen's contempt and frowned secretly.

This is why I have been crying wolf for the past few years, but the wolf has not come. Now if I cry again, no one will believe me.

"Huaisheng, you have been saying this for several years. I think your judgment is wrong. This wave of monster beasts is not much different from a century ago. The sect is also prepared, especially since the sect is now far from powerful. It was a few years ago, even if this year it may be a bit more serious, our Sanzi Mansion here in Wolong Ridge is building the foundation in our 30s and 40s, so what are we worried about?”

Wu Tianen shook his head.

"This time is different." Chen Huaisheng looked serious, "I have evidence."

Seeing Chen Huaisheng's expression, Wu Tianen became a little more serious, "Oh, what's the basis?"

Chen Huaisheng introduced the situation of going to Yuntan Valley. Wu Tianen was also taken aback, changed his color in shock, and couldn't help but stand up.

"Gui Yuan Mang Xie? Are you sure? This is a third-level high-grade monster, a monster more powerful than the Yellow River dragon and the human-faced phantom wolf. I have never seen it. I have only heard of its name. What you said How far is Yuntan Valley from here?”

"More than two hundred miles is close to three hundred miles."

Chen Huaisheng's answer made Wu Tianen even more expressionless, "So close? Only less than three hundred miles?"

"It's not that close. It's three hundred miles to the edge of Zhangchi Road." Chen Huaisheng shook his head: "It would be better to say that it is closer to the Tianhe Sect, but this Guiyuan Mangxi is indeed very powerful in combat. I I'm lucky I was able to escape..."

After listening to Chen Huaisheng's introduction to the situation of this battle, Wu Tianen no longer had the previous arrogance and calmness, and started walking in the hall, "With this situation alone, it seems that it is not certain that the wave of monsters you mentioned will break out in a large area, right? ?”

The words were full of uncertainty, but Chen Huaisheng knew that Wu Tianen had been shaken in his heart.

"Only the ghosts and monsters are nothing. After all, they are in the Yuntan Valley. The problem is that the climate change is the most terrible thing. The summer heat has not passed yet, and the weather is suddenly cold. It is unreasonable. The more unreasonable it is. The details mean that there will be changes. I am most worried about this. If it is a third-order monster, that's it. What if a fourth-order monster appears? "

If it is a fourth-level monster, I am afraid that few people in the entire Chonghua Sect have seen it. Except for Sanzi Mansion, other monks, even those at the peak of Foundation Establishment, will find it difficult to resist it.

It may be possible to rely on the mountain protection array to support it, but the huge Wolong Ridge will inevitably have some things that cannot be taken care of.

Moreover, now that the sect has relaxed the rules of building foundations, opening caves and establishing mansions, cave temples have blossomed everywhere, with thirty or forty cave mansions spread throughout Wolong Ridge and its surroundings.

It is forty or fifty miles away from Longlin Plain, and Wolong Ridge cannot take care of it at all.

Unless these caves can be abandoned decisively, at that time, even if there are real people from Zifu sitting in charge, they will not be able to take care of them.

"There are senior brothers in charge and the others..."

"Uncle, can the master and the others take care of this alone?" Chen Huaisheng smiled bitterly, "How many Taoist temples are there around Wolong Ridge, thirty or forty? Who is willing to give up and spend a lot of money to build one now? How many people in the Taoist Academy are not confident in themselves? What’s more, how many people will believe what I said? When that time comes, will it be too late?”

Chen Huaisheng said the key point, who would believe it? Who is not confident enough in themselves?

If a third-level monster dares to come to your own cave, take advantage of the home field, work together, and use some magic weapons, you may not be able to deal with it, and you may even be able to capture it.

No matter what happens, you can still ask for reinforcements from the brothers and uncles at Shanmen and the surrounding areas, but you still can’t cope with it?

You said there will be a large number of third-order and fourth-order monsters swarming out?

How can this be?

The Du family in Bajiao Village was attacked by the third-order monster beast, the Human-faced Phantom Heart Wolf, which had shocked the entire Fuyang Road. It was only two ends. How could so many third-order monsters appear?

I'm afraid three or five heads should be the limit, right?
