There are very few human monks in Fenghai County today. Under the unified orders of the Sword-bearing Courts of each state, most of them went to two battlefields in the northwest to fight to protect Fenghai County.
For the human sect forces, it is not just Lingzang who returns to the void, but in addition to leaving some hope for the sect, almost the entire sect force is mobilized.
Therefore, in the port of Chaoxia Prefecture, most of the people Xu Qing looked at were foreigners.
These foreign races usually live in Fenghai County and have been protected to a certain extent by the human race for countless years.
Although this shelter was not very large, they were not expelled from the county after all, and they still had a place for their tribe to live.
But thinking about how they had refused in every possible way when they were asked to send strong men from the ethnic group to participate in the battle, Xu Qing shook his head.
Although he could understand these foreign tribes, he knew that they believed that this war had nothing to do with their tribe. No matter who was in charge of Fenghai County, it would not make much difference to them.
If that's the case, why bother?
From their point of view, it may be true, but Xu Qing is not a saint who cares for all races. His position makes him have no good impression of these foreign races.
Especially among these foreign tribes, Xu Qing also saw the Yanmiao tribe.
The Yanmiao tribe does not only exist in the desert. There is fog in the Yuanhai Sea of Chaoxia Prefecture, and any place with fog is suitable for this tribe to inhabit.
Their bodies are made of mist, so unless you know something about them, it's hard to tell their gender and their specific appearance.
All you can see are clouds of fog floating around the docks of the port, going back and forth, as if looking for something.
At the same time, there is a special kind of black puppet that also appears in the Yanmiao tribe. There are many gaps in it, which can be parasitized and driven by the Yanmiao tribe.
Xu Qing, who was sitting on the turtle's back, naturally aroused the investigation of the Yanmiao clan, but it was a bit strange to see Xu Qing alone. After all, the turtle sitting on the turtle had no head, and there was a fist-sized barnacle in its tail.
But among the group of monks at the dock, Xu Qing was no longer out of place compared to the various strange aliens. Some of the aliens around him were even riding on corpses.
As for the Yanmiao Clan, Xu Qing had a deep dislike for them. Their attitude in the desert was full of malice, and the fragment of the world where Chu Tianqun fought with him was also borrowed from this tribe.
Afterwards, Xu Qing calculated the time and found that when he met Chu Tianqun, he was only one hour away from entering the county capital. This hour... was delayed by the Yanmiao clan.
But he knew that he was conducting a secret investigation this time, so after scanning his eyes, he suppressed his murderous intention and ignored it. Instead, he sat on the back of the stone lion that transformed into a turtle, and silently waited at the pier for the ferry boat to arrive.
Soon, those Yanmiao people who were searching here found no results, so they quickly left and continued searching at other docks.
Xu Qing didn't care what they were looking for, but he heard many foreign monks in the dock where he was, talking in low voices after the Yanmiao people left.
"The Yanmiao clan has been searching for several days, and I don't know what they are looking for. I heard that they are not only searching at the port, but also in the deep sea."
"The external statement is that they are looking for a large number of remains that collapsed throughout the Chaoxia Prefecture after the death of the Sun. However, the remains of the Sun have long been found and taken away by the human race and other ethnic groups over the countless years. They have not been seen for thousands of years.
A record of new flesh and blood being discovered.”
"I'm not looking for the remains of the long-extinct sun. Why do I feel like I'm looking for and preventing someone from entering Chaoxia Prefecture?"
Xu Qing was thoughtful and looked up at the Yanmiao clan in the distance.
Until an hour later, when many more aliens were waiting for the ferry at the pier, a whimpering sound came from the mist on the distant abyss.
The aliens on the dock all looked around.
Along with the sound came gusts of cold wind.
This wind blew along the abyssal sea to the port, and gradually some strange-looking giant boats appeared in the mist, which gradually became clear.
Their shapes are divided into two types.
One is like a swallow, thousands of feet in size, with exquisite and luxurious lofts built everywhere on its back, and many long
The maids with rabbit ears are all sweet-looking and graceful.
Xu Qing glanced over and recognized that this was the Lingtu clan. This clan has a large clan, but it does not have its own clan. All the clan members are scattered in several states, and they rely on the powerful ones for survival.
As for the other kind of giant boat, perhaps it shouldn't be called a boat, because they look more like huge leaves, with four slender rod-like legs underneath, reaching deep into the bottom of the abyss.
The size of these leaves is about a hundred feet. Compared with Yanzhou, not only are they much simpler, but their number is also far greater than that of Yanzhou, occupying about 90% of the leaves.
At this moment, with the arrival, the monks on various docks jumped up one after another, choosing giant boats according to the different directions they were going.
Xu Qing saw that a few of the monks who were in the Nascent Soul Wave were going to those Yan boats, while the rest were going to Ye boats. He understood in his heart that these two kinds of ferries were prepared for different cultivation levels.
.
So he observed it, found Ye Zhou heading to Qingwu Mountain, and stepped on it.
Qingwu Mountain also belongs to the central area of Zhaoxia Prefecture and is not very far from Zhaoxia Mountain.
Xu Qing felt that it was inappropriate to go directly to Zhaoxia Mountain. Since it was a secret investigation, he planned to rely on his own cultivation to cross a certain distance to Zhaoxia Mountain after arriving at Qingwu Mountain.
Although Xu Qing felt that it was impossible to cross the border for a long time based on his own cultivation, but in a short time, in his judgment, it was possible.
After stepping onto Ye Zhou, Xu Qing glanced around.
This leaf boat is extremely simple, with no buildings and no maids. There are only a few men in green robes with grimace masks sitting cross-legged at the front, responsible for sailing the boat.
As for the repairmen who boarded the ship, there were more than thirty in number. Except for seven or eight people who were sitting together, the others were all walking alone. They were scattered within a hundred feet of each other, which was quite spacious to accommodate them.
Xu Qing found a corner and sat down cross-legged, then his eyes fell on the three green-robed monks in the distance.
Most of what he knew about Zhaoxia Prefecture was through the files of the sword holders. For example, the person in charge of ferrying here was a merchant alliance named Shuguang.
This merchant alliance is composed of many forces in Zhaoxia Prefecture, and the Sword-bearing Court here is naturally among them. After all, the specialness of Zhaoxia Mountain makes boat ferrying here extremely profitable.
The clothing of the Dawn Merchant Alliance is this kind of green robe.
After looking carefully, Xu Qing glanced at the other monks on the leaves, then closed his eyes and meditated silently.
Not long after, about a stick of incense, some of the giant boats at the port dock began to set sail.
Xu Qing's Ye Zhou was one of them. After they paid the fee, as the leaves vibrated, the four thin legs underneath them slowly moved forward. The strong wind blew, and without any obstruction, they landed directly on the leaves.
On everyone who went up.
As the leaf boat continued to move forward and gradually moved away from the port, the blowing wind became stronger, and then a thin light mask spread out from the leaves and enveloped the surroundings, blocking the wind.
But the feeling of bumping and shaking became more and more intense.
Xu Qing didn't pay attention to this, closed his eyes and rested, and three days passed like this.
During the past three days, Xu Qing occasionally opened his eyes and looked in all directions. All he saw was the endless sea of the abyss. While the cold atmosphere filled the world, some strange existences also appeared in the sea of abyss.
For example, there are whales with wings, countless red lanterns flying, and huge bats with two heads. However, these strange beasts obviously have an agreement with the Dawn Merchant Alliance. Although they appeared around, they did not attack Ye Zhou.
.
In addition, Xu Qing also saw a giant flower, a thousand feet in size, blooming under a relatively shallow abyss.
The red color of this flower is very obvious under the deep sea, and there are strips of stamens rising from the flower, floating on the deep sea, spreading in all directions.
Their appearance also attracted the attention of many foreign monks on Ye Zhou, with strange expressions on their faces.
Because at the end of those swaying stamens, there were actually females from different ethnic groups. Xu Qing even saw the human race.
They are graceful and graceful, in line with the aesthetics of every human race. They are not covered by any clothes. After appearing, they are posing and waving to the cultivators on Ye Zhou.
"Sir, we are very lucky." When Xu Qing looked at those flower stamens, he heard the sound of barnacles on the turtle's tail. The barnacles were transformed from the head. At this moment, eyes were exposed on it, looking at the outside world obsessively.
"Happiness flower, it was my favorite flower back then."
Xu Qing frowned, he didn't know this kind of flower.
"The Happy Flower is a special kind of strange plant in Zhaoxia Prefecture. When this kind of strange plant is in full bloom, the flower stamens will transform into the appearance of women from different ethnic groups to enchant passers-by."
"Once they are successfully charmed, they will be dragged down to the bottom of the abyss and sucked into mummies. The golden elixir will last a little longer, but it won't last too long."
"Only those with extraordinary talents like me could turn upside down in it and truly taste the supreme bliss brought by the Flower of Joy."
His head murmured, and his eyes revealed memories.
"So the body is so thin?" The person who answered his head was not Xu Qing, but the big turtle under him.
His head widened and he was about to speak when Xu Qing suddenly heard a low voice.
"Shut up."
In an instant, the big turtles and barnacles no longer made any sound. Xu Qing's cross-legged feeling dispersed and filled the place where seven or eight foreigners gathered in the distance. He just faintly heard that they seemed to be talking about the sword-wielding court.
.
As I paid attention at this moment, the sound gradually became clearer.
"These are troubled times. I heard that only if the number of ethnic groups in Chaoxia Prefecture is greatly reduced, evil plants like the Happy Flower will bloom."
"The human race is in trouble this time, and the Sword-bearing Palace is also in danger. Have you heard that there seem to be many ethnic groups and rogue cultivators who want to take advantage of the Sword-bearing Palace in Zhaoxia Mountain."
"I also vaguely heard that someone seems to be calling on all kinds of cultivators, thieves, and thugs to attack Chaoxia Mountain in the near future and rob the Sword-bearing Palace."
"It's so precarious. I've indeed seen a lot of new faces these days, and they probably aren't local cultivators in Chaoxia Prefecture."
"This matter has nothing to do with us. Let's go back to our tribe as soon as possible. We have no control over the life and death of the human race. If the human race is defeated in the end... we might as well get a share of the pie,"
"Yes, I heard that the Sword-bearing Court is very rich..."
When Xu Qing heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and a coldness appeared in his eyes. His expression suddenly changed slightly, and he raised his head to look at the mist on the deep sea in the distance.
Vaguely, seven or eight black puppets ten feet high appeared in the mist. They walked on the deep sea, with red light in their eyes, looking at Ye Zhou with evil intentions.
It is the Yanmiao tribe.
A fleeting cold light rose in Xu Qing's eyes, and he looked at the black puppets of the Yanmiao tribe approaching to judge the cultivation and combat prowess of the newcomers.
As they approached, wisps of mist could be seen coming out of the gaps on the bodies of these black puppets, turning into blurry figures outside. While examining Ye Zhou, most of the mist also dispersed, surrounding Ye Zhou.
All around.
And those seven or eight huge black puppets were standing in front of Ye Zhou at this moment, blocking his way.
The four legs under the leaf trembled slightly and did not dare to move anymore. The monks on the leaf were shocked, and it was obvious that many of them were vigilant and alert.
When the three green-robed monks wearing grimace masks quickly stood up and stared at the Yanmiao tribe, one of them clasped his fists and spoke in a deep voice.
"I wonder what the fellow Taoists from the Yanmiao tribe are doing here."
