Chu Yang's first destination was Shanli Village, a small village only one day's journey from Shanbian Village.

The caravan would arrive at Shanli Village before going to Shanbian Village.

If Chu Yang wanted to find the caravan, he had to go in the opposite direction of the caravan and search all the way there.

The road to Shanli Village was easy to identify.

In order to facilitate communication and the arrival of caravans, these villages would not deliberately build villages in places that were difficult to pass.

They built villages in the deep mountains in order to obtain a larger and better hunting range, not to avoid any wars and disasters.

Therefore, there are clear traffic routes between villages, and some sections of the road have even been simply repaired.

As long as the general direction is determined, it is not difficult to find the next village by walking along these obvious roads.

If there is enough time, Chu Yang can even draw a map of the distribution of villages in this world.

After entering the forest, Chu Yang found that the roads in the mountains were not difficult to walk.

Most of the routes go around the mountains and are generally flat.

Even if some sections of the road are more rugged and need to climb over some low hills, the caravan has opened up a ready-made route, so there is no need to climb or jump.

The only trouble is that the weeds in some places are lush. The caravan only goes there once a year, and these weeds cover the road surface.

If it were an ordinary human, he would be a little worried when passing through these sections, such as worrying about stepping into the air or stepping on a snake.

But Chu Yang didn't have these troubles. He directly released his spiritual sense and explored the road a few meters in front of him clearly.

Because he was lightly equipped, his walking speed was relatively fast. Even on some uphill roads, he could reach a speed of more than ten or twenty per hour.

This was a long-distance marathon. Although it was a bit tiring, Chu Yang could definitely hold on better than ordinary human athletes.

At this speed, he estimated that he would not need to wait until dark to get to the mountain village.

But life is not as good as expected, and reality is not so smooth after all.

On the way, he encountered a group of things that he didn't know whether they were hyenas or coyotes, which delayed him for two hours.

This kind of group-living animals is very difficult to deal with. Even fierce beasts like lions and tigers can easily be ripped out of their anuses when they are alone.

There is no absolute dominant species in nature. Even the most powerful species have individual differences and are prone to danger when they are besieged.

Chu Yang is no longer a cultivator with great magical powers, and he dare not confront this group of hyenas. He can only use his ultimate move - climbing trees.

The advantage of human's flexible limbs has been fully demonstrated. This group of hyenas can't do anything to him.

Chu Yang was relieved immediately.

It seems that the beasts in this world are just like that. Except for being stronger and stronger, they still can't reach the level of monsters.

After climbing the tree, Chu Yang turned into Tarzan and began to jump around on the top of the tree.

The hyenas followed him all the way under the tree, and finally saw him jump onto a steep cliff. Suddenly, they could no longer catch up and could only watch him leave triumphantly.

But after such a delay, Chu Yang spent a lot of time to get back to the road he was going to take.

When it was dark, he finally saw Shanli Village.

Shanli Village was built on a hilltop, so it would be easier to defend and it would not be easy for wild animals to break into the village.

The only trouble was getting water, and the water source was at the foot of the mountain.

So they also built several fences at the foot of the mountain and set up a gate.

When Chu Yang approached the gate at the foot of the mountain, he was discovered by the sentry guard.

Fortunately, there was no hostility between humans in this world. The guard quickly let him into the village and took him to see the village chief.

The village chief was called Yang Jiao, and he was very surprised after listening to Chu Yang's self-introduction.

"Are you a ghost cultivator from Shanbian Village? You just walked here alone?"

"Yes."

"Young man, your behavior is really too risky. Fortunately, you didn't encounter any wild animals, otherwise... you probably wouldn't have the chance to walk to our Shanli Village."

Yang Jiao showed an attitude of concern for his kind and younger generation.

Chu Yang smiled and said, "I was able to walk to Shanli Village smoothly, not because of luck, but because of strength..."

"No matter how strong you are, you shouldn't take risks like this."

"I have a reason to take risks. I'm looking for a friend of mine. I don't know where she went yet, whether she joined a village, and I must find her as soon as possible."

"Your friend? Is she also a ghost cultivator?"

"Yes."

"How long has he been here?"

"She came with me, probably less than two months."

"Then your friend is not here with us..."

Yang Jiao explained regretfully, "There are still two ghost cultivators in our village now, and they have been here for several years."

"It's expected."

Chu Yang sighed, "I was actually prepared a long time ago. She might even be on the other side of the world..."

The moving speed of that space crack is at least thousands per hour. As long as the time of entry is slightly different by a few minutes, the location of the exit will be unknown.

After Xiao Qian entered the space crack, Chu Yang delayed for half an hour to prevent Lu Feng and other ghost cultivators from entering.

With such a short delay, the space crack in the small world had expanded by several hundred kilometers.

No matter whether the space crack moves in a straight line or a curve, Xiaoqian's landing position will definitely not be too close to him.

Chu Yang did not expect to find Xiaoqian in Shanli Village. His main purpose of coming to Shanli Village was to see if he could run into a caravan and ask them for information.

Now that he has no harvest, he must continue to rush to the next stop.

But now it is night, and there is no need for him to continue to travel overnight.

Bamu said that it is not safe in the mountains and forests at night, and there will be more wild animals coming out, so he does not need to take the risk.

He is not worried that the wild animals will hurt him, but he is worried that he will be delayed by the wild animals and waste his time on the road, just like the group of hyenas he met today.

"Village chief, can I rest in your village for one night?"

"Of course there is no problem. We have a lot of extra housing here, which is specially prepared for guests."

The extra housing can be provided for the caravan to live in, and can also be used to accommodate the newly joined ghost cultivators.

Chu Yang quickly obtained a temporary residence and inquired about the direction and location of the next village.

He was now in the south of the mountains, but he couldn't go directly to the village in the north.

Because he still had to find the caravan, he had to go in the opposite direction of the caravan's route.

This required him to go around in circles in the mountains.
