Chapter 220 Arrow Rain is a secret(1/2)
Since the spiritual energy in that area has dissipated, it is no longer suitable for cultivators to survive. Therefore, since the war, the surviving cultivators have all left their hometowns to find suitable places for cultivation, but this place has become desolate.
However, due to the formation of the Sea of Life, all living things grew in the sea, and some mortals came to settle here, mainly making a living by fishing.
The land around the Sea of Life also benefited from it, and was extremely fertile and suitable for farming. Therefore, the number of mortals increased, and more than a dozen countries of various sizes were gradually formed. Although some were far away from the Sea of Life, the amount of rain required for farming was not enough.
Most of them come from the Sea of Life.
"It's actually like this!" After hearing this legend, Zhou Yang couldn't help but feel a little moved.
What a tragic fate, what a shocking battle!
It is simply unheard of for a powerful man to fight with gods and men and actually affect the laws of heaven and earth. Could it be that these two people have touched the level of immortals?
According to Song Laohu, they are obviously not immortals, but they can shake the laws of heaven and earth, so they should not be far from the path of immortality. Are they cultivators of the realm of controlling gods, or cultivators of a higher level?
Soaring up to the nine heavens, striking down to the nine netherworlds, overturning rivers and seas, shaking heaven and earth, does such a powerful person still exist in this world?
Seeing Zhou Yang deep in thought, Song Laohu laughed and said, "Fourth brother, these are just legends, don't take them seriously."
"Yes, some legends are true, and some are just lies. Who can tell clearly!" Zhou Yang nodded.
"If we continue walking, we will retreat to the edge of the forest!" At this time, Hu Zhiran reminded.
"What do you think?" Pu Zheng asked Zhou Yang.
"It would be too far to take another detour. We can disperse in the forest and return to the original route after those thousands of people pass by!" Zhou Yang said.
"I think it works!" Tiger nodded.
"Then let's do it!" Everyone agreed.
"Don't be too spread out, otherwise it's easy to get lost!" Hu Zhiran reminded.
"Understood, we can work in groups of two or three and spread out within a few miles." Zhou Yang nodded.
The group of people and horses then got into the dense forest and disappeared after a while.
"General, there is still no trace of the prince!" The army marched quickly on the official road in the forest, and spies reported to the generals from time to time.
"It's really weird. I've been chasing him for so long, but why can't I see the prince?" The general reined in his horse, frowning, and looking very anxious.
The thousands of infantrymen behind him also stopped.
"General, is there an accident?" a lieutenant asked cautiously.
"Probably not. The guards who hunt with the prince are all masters. They can handle hundreds of people. Besides, we didn't find any large groups of people along the way, so there won't be any war."
"The traces of the fight on the official road before..." The deputy general hesitated to speak.
"I said, those are just the traces of besieging beasts!" the general said displeased.
"Yes, yes!" The deputy general did not dare to say any more.
"Separate two thousand infantrymen and five hundred archers, and search forward on both sides. The search range will be within five miles. If anything is found, use the sound of arrows as a signal!" The general ordered decisively.
"Yes!" the deputy general took the order and went down to make arrangements.
Zhou Yang was more than 700 feet away on the west side of the official road, paying attention to the movements of the group of people with his spiritual consciousness from a distance. Myolie and Tiger were also beside him. Tiger looked straight up his neck for a long time, but could not see anything.
"It's broken!" After a moment, Zhou Yang's face changed slightly and he said urgently.
Although he couldn't hear clearly what the general said, he later discovered a large number of men quickly dispersed in the dense forest.
"What's going on?" Tiger was startled and asked hurriedly.
"The army will also disperse in the forest to search!"
"Ah! Our people are all scattered, can we contact each other?" Tiger was also very anxious after hearing this.
"Let's all try, whoever we can contact counts!" Zhou Yang said in a deep voice.
"Then what should I say?"
"In this way, let them go as deep into the dense forest as possible first, and then meet at the official road here in an hour!" Zhou Yang ordered.
"good!"
The two began to communicate separately.
After a few breaths, Zhou Yang actually contacted Pu Zheng, and there was a reply to Tiger's message. It was Hu Zhiran.
Pu Zheng, Tie Hu and Linghu were together. Pu Zheng contacted Zhong Ming and Lin Cheng respectively, and Hu Zhiran also contacted Bai Meng.
"Wu Changan, there is no news from Wang Dahai and Liu Wen!" After a few breaths, Zhou Yang said gloomily.
"What should we do?"
"There is no other way, we have to leave quickly!"
"It can only be this way!"
The two of them turned around and left without further delay.
More than an hour later, Pu Zheng and others appeared on the official road one after another.
After a while, Wu Changan also arrived, and the only ones missing from the crowd were Wang Dahai and Liu Wen.
"Are they separated?" Hu Zhiran looked anxious.
"We haven't contacted them. Do these two guys know if they can come back here?" Bai Meng frowned anxiously.
"They are very smart, and they also said before they dispersed that they would return along the official road after passing the army. They should be able to come back!" Lin Cheng was very confident.
"Well, these two are stealing!" Tiehu said nonchalantly. Although he didn't stay with everyone for a long time, everyone's temper was very different.
After waiting for another stick of incense, no one was seen, even Lin Cheng was a little impatient.
"What should I do?" Bai Meng was anxious.
Zhou Yang suddenly relaxed his brows and moved his mouth slightly, as if transmitting a message.
"Found it?" Hu Zhiran said happily.
Zhou Yang nodded and continued transmitting messages.
After half a cup of tea, Wang Dahai and Liu Wen pulled their horses out of the dense forest.
However, everyone did not look at these two people immediately. Instead, they all turned their heads towards Zhou Yang. Oh dear, this guy's consciousness is too powerful!
"What's going on with you?" After a moment, Lin Cheng asked Wang Dahai.
"Forget it, I almost didn't come back!" Wang Dahai was still breathing heavily.
"The two of us met a group of people, but after killing them, we attracted hundreds of archers. Let's not mention the secret of Arrow Rain! It was really tiring to escape all the way!" Liu Wen
His face was also a little pale, and he was still feeling frightened.
"What, what happened?" Hu Zhiran changed his face.
"We have to leave quickly!" Pu Zheng waved his hand.
"It should be fine, we both came back after a long trip!" Wang Dahai said after breathing well.
"No, leave quickly!" Pu Zheng said flatly.
"Okay, let's go!"
Everyone ran wildly for more than half an hour before slowing down slightly.
During the hundreds of miles that followed, we didn't encounter many people, but there were indeed some large beasts, including tigers and lions that were regarded as ferocious beasts by mortals.
However, in the eyes of cultivators, these beasts are nothing, they are just some low-level monsters. It does not take much effort to destroy them. It just adds some delicious food to Zhou Yang and others' storage bags.
There is a huge black bear among them. Although it is very heavy, it is extremely powerful. If you slap it with both palms, the boulder will break into pieces. Even if it is blocked by a cultivator, it will be too much to bear. Mortals will even run away after hearing the wind.
However, with the help of Zhou Yang, Xing'er showed great power and fought with it for a long time. The beast was so angry that it gasped for breath. When it was exhausted, Xing'er used a magic weapon to kill it.
Everyone cut the black bear into eight pieces, especially Tie Hu, who grabbed the most bear meat. However, Xing'er monopolized two bear paws, saying that bear paws are good for beauty and are not needed by grown men.
But the other two bear paws, also known as bear feet, were snatched away by Tiehu. The bear's feet were larger than the front paws and had thicker flesh, so Tiehu wouldn't let go of them.
It was almost dark, and they finally walked out of the Sunless Forest. Although the sun had just set, the light outside was still better than in the forest.
This place is nearly a hundred miles away from Sunchon County City. Even if we get there, the city gate will be closed.
After Song Laohu discussed with Zhou Yang and others, they set up camp to rest and wait until dawn tomorrow before setting off again.
There is a small mountain peak right in front of the forest. After passing the mountain peak, there is the official road leading to Shuntian County Castle.
Everyone climbed up the mountain and chose an open place. After setting up a bonfire, they began to barbecue the meat of tigers and bears.
Xing'er was reluctant to take out the bear's paw, saying that barbecuing here would be a waste of natural resources, and she wanted to take it to the city to steam it.
Tiehu was impatient and prepared to take out the bear's feet, but after hearing Xing'er's words, he also put away the bear's feet, muttering that he wanted to steam them too.
Naturally, delicious food cannot be separated from fine wine. Even Xing'er drank a lot, taking a mouthful of tiger meat, a mouthful of bear meat, and another sip of wine, shouting that she was happy.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang was speechless for a while, but he couldn't help but think of Ling'er.
Ling'er and Zhou Yang also drank like crazy, but their drinking capacity was very limited, and they were known to drink one cup at a time.
Can Senior Sima heal her injuries? Can her consciousness be restored? Will she forget herself?
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Xing'er saw Zhou Yang was in a daze, so she walked over with a wine bottle and touched him gently.
