004. Footprints (Part 2)

The visitor was none other than Yan Lingzhu, the military advisor of Feihong City. He did not deny his identity, but he did not answer Huwa's words. Instead, he asked: "Who are you? What problem do I have with you? Why?"

Are you chasing me so hard that you’ve ended up here?”

Huwa replied: "I followed your footsteps here, and you are indeed hiding nearby. I have been told by my elders since I was a child to try not to leave any traces when walking through the mountains, so I naturally pay special attention to this aspect. Therefore,

I can find this place... I am just a stranger who passed by occasionally, but I would like to ask, what is the problem with you, you want to order the army to rob and kill me on the way?"

Yan Lingzhu said solemnly: "Are you a monk?" Huwa nodded.

Yan Lingzhu added: "At such a young age, his cultivation level should be very good. He seems to have an extraordinary background.!

Huwa nodded again and said, "That's right."

Yan Lingzhu then asked: "What is your name, and who is your descendant?"

Huwa: "I have received guidance from my elders, but I can't say I come from that family. As for my name, everyone I meet after I come out of the mountain calls me Mr. Xiao."

Yan Lingzhu glanced at Panhu again and said, "You are a somewhat spiritual dog, and your tracking skills are pretty good. If you don't want to reveal your origins, that's all. Now that I've chased you here, I can't let you go."

Huwa said childishly: "Oh, you want to kill me and silence me? Can you tell me why? I didn't know you before, and I don't even know what bad things you have done?"

Yan Lingzhu said bitterly: "You came from Baixi Village, don't think I don't know! I saw you going from Baixi Village to Feihong City to report the news."

Huwa widened his eyes and said, "I'm really surprised. As a military advisor, why did you allow the patrolling army to disguise themselves as bandits and loot the villages? How did you know that there were treasures in those villages? And you yourself were so panicked.

Are you aware of the situation in Baixi Village and Feihong City when you hurriedly send your family members away to escape?"

Seeing that Huwa had no intention of taking action, he just stood there talking. Yan Lingzhu sneered and said: "I have been observing from a high place for a long time. You are here alone. There is no one else in this mountain and wilderness. Don't try to delay the wait.

Reinforcements are coming. Since you are seeking death, I will make it clear to you. As long as you tell me everything that happened in Baixi Village and Feihong City, I can answer your questions before killing you."

Huwa's judgment was correct, and Yan Lingzhu hid nearby. When Huwa and Panhu chased this area, he had been observing in the dark for a long time, and was sure that only this person and the dog came, and saw that they wanted to sit down.

After resting, he quietly appeared.

When Yan Lingzhu rushed to Baixi Village, he went too late. He didn't know what happened to Nong Neng and the others. Not even one of them escaped. When he left Feihong City, he ran away too fast.

He only had time to order the killing of Huwa and send his family away. It is not known what happened in the city walls later.

Yan Lingzhu ran away one day before Huwa entered the city. Of course, it was impossible to see the sensational scene when Huwa entered the city. He only knew that this person was sent by Baixi Village to report the news to Feihong City.

Huwa is a monk and may have extraordinary origins. This does not surprise him because there must be masters in Baixi Village, otherwise Nong Neng and the others would not fail. But Huwa looks so young. Even with his cultivation level

No matter how high it can be, how high can it be? It was just a trip to the mountains under the orders of the teacher, and he happened to be passing by here to mind his own business. There should be other high-ranking people in Baixi Village besides him.

Yan Lingzhu didn't think that this childish boy would be his opponent. Since Huwa and a dog had already chased him here and discovered his whereabouts, he couldn't let him go. But Yan Lingzhu was also very curious at the same time.

, he wanted to know very urgently - why did Nongneng fail? It was an entire elite army!

Before killing people and silencing them, Yan Lingzhu had to ask the question clearly. Otherwise, he would not be able to sleep well in the days to come. However, Huwa was not in a hurry or scared, so he told Yan Lingzhu about his passing by Baixi Village.

What he encountered began with a conversation between two pig-headed men. He had also told Ling these words before. The process was very simple, but everything that needed to be said was made clear.

After listening, Yan Lingzhu said bitterly: "It turns out that the demon clan leaked the news. Baixi Village was prepared and invited a group of experts to help. Those pig-headed men also rebelled and attacked the army. No wonder Nong Neng failed.

...Since you can appear here, it means you were not stopped on the way, so you must have gone to the city to report the news. Do you know how the Lord of Hongyuan City plans to handle this matter?"

Huwa nodded: "You asked the right person, I do know..."

He also introduced that he went into the city and met the Lord of Hongyuan City. The Lord of Hongyuan sent people to Baixi Village to investigate, and then decided to report the inside story of the matter to the king, and temporarily announced it to the people of the city in another way... and so on.

Huwa told the story very briefly, not mentioning things like showing off his national industrial tokens to enter the city and going to the market, but the things should be clear enough.

Yan Lingzhu laughed loudly when he heard this, and the laughter made people's eardrums buzz. Huwa asked again: "Why are you laughing? What's so funny about this?"

Yan Lingzhu said with a smile: "The Lord of Hongyuan City plans to report to the monarch, but what can the monarch do? Since he has made such an announcement, the monarch is just following the trend to appease the people. He cannot publicly order me to be hunted down. He can only announce that I have been arrested.

I have disappeared or have been murdered by rogue bandits. I will fly away incognito, but my family will be safe."

Huwa frowned and said: "Your family should not be publicly executed, but you may not be safe. I am here to hunt you down! And I also think you are funny, and you ran away without understanding the situation."

The bandits left no one alive, and no one knows your relationship with Nongneng. If you do nothing else, at most you will be dismissed from your post and questioned, but if you run away like this, you are seeking your own death."

Yan Lingzhu looked very proud at this moment, looked at Huwa and asked: "Do you want to know - what is the relationship between me and Nong Neng?"

Huwa nodded honestly and said: "Yes, I really want to know. In today's world, there are some things that I can only ask you personally."

Yan Lingzhu has decided to kill Huwa and silence him. There is no need to say any more nonsense, but he just can't help it! Some secrets have been kept in his heart for many years, and he will never have the chance to mention them to others in the future, so he might as well tell them once.

Well, it can be regarded as a kind of catharsis to soothe emotions.

It was no coincidence that Yan Lingzhu fled to this place to hide. There is a Qingxiu cave left by the monks decades ago nearby, and the village where Yan Lingzhu was born is Zeng Yuan on the top of the mountain that Huwa was tracking.

The place I saw was Yan Lingzhu's hometown. The old monk was an elder in his clan. He had cultivated to the perfection of the fourth realm and nine realms, but died when he was about to break through the fifth realm.

It was under the guidance of this old monk that Yan Lingzhu entered the first level of cultivation. In terms of inheritance relationship, he can be regarded as the descendant of the old monk. In his later years, the old monk only wanted to break through to a higher realm of cultivation, and had long since stopped

After asking about world affairs, he built a secret cave in the mountains for Qing Xiu, and passed away while sitting in the cave. The location of this cave is now known only to Yan Lingzhu.

But when he was in his prime, the old monk had been an engineer of Feihong City. He had experienced two city lords, and the first city lord was Bai Xiying's grandfather. Because of his status as an engineer and his duties, he took control of the city.

He is the most trustworthy assistant to the city lord and has participated in the refining of many artifacts.

The old monk was a very competent engineer and had never done anything treacherous or unjust. He only knew many secret past events many years ago. When he was living in seclusion in his later years, he would occasionally come to accompany him and accompany him.

Ask Yan Lingzhu for advice on various cultivation issues, and no one else will come here.

Before reaching the sixth realm of cultivation, there is no complete inheritance that can guide the path to heaven. However, the old monk can also talk about his own cultivation insights and give guidance on the cultivation of various realms. But Yan Lingzhu is the same as Nong Neng. In addition to fighting with supernatural powers,

, is not good at other means, and I am afraid that I am not qualified to be an idle Gonggong. If I want to get ahead, I can only work as a military advisor in the city.

Perhaps in order to make up for Yan Lingzhu's shortcomings, the old monk told him a lot about the refining of artifacts, including the magic weapons that the old city lord personally refined and collected, as well as those made by several other senior monks in the city who were good at refining artifacts.

Made things.

The speaker was unintentional but the listener was interested. Yan Lingzhu often asked about the whereabouts of those artifacts and learned that some had been given to others, some the old monk did not know, and some should be treasured by future generations. The old monk and Weiwei

The ancestor of the family, the Danhuo boy who was beside the old city lord, was once a close friend. He also occasionally heard about the collection of artifacts in Baixi Village, and accidentally revealed it to Yan Lingzhu.

But the old monk didn't know that his descendant had other ideas. Later, Yan Lingzhu became Feihong City's military advisor, and got acquainted with deputy military advisor Nong Neng and others.

Nong Neng is a local casual cultivator, and he can often beat Yan Lingzhu in fighting skills demonstrations. But it is not that he is more powerful in fighting skills, but that he has a higher position in the city. The current Lord of Hongyuan City is still an inexperienced person.

What about ordinary people! Nong Neng has no special skills except that he has the cultivation level of the four realms and is good at fighting and killing. If he can serve as the deputy military division in the city, this life may be over.

Nong Neng often feels this way, and Yan Lingzhu also has the same regret. They are very reluctant to do so. But it is so difficult to break through to a higher realm of cultivation, and there is a lack of complete guidance of secret law inheritance. If you want to use casual cultivation to

If you cultivate your identity on your own, your hope in this life will be extremely slim.

This is the case whether it is the realm of cultivation or other status and achievements in the world.

Unwilling to be reconciled, Yan Lingzhu came up with other ideas. He revealed certain things to Nong Neng and told Nong Neng a plan that might allow them to get the guidance and attention of a master of the world's inheritance sect, or perhaps

Can seek higher status, achievement and enjoyment of life. However, it is very dangerous to implement this plan and must not be discovered by others, otherwise it will lead to the disaster of annihilation, and Nong Neng will do it. (To be continued...)
