Chapter 1107 – Maple Crossing Demon Beast Logging
The little fatty La Fei looked around in disappointment. His mood had been affected by the slightly dilapidated little town. Although he couldn’t be considered to be from a wealthy family, he was still considered to be from a wealthy family, so his life had always been luxurious. These two years after Wen Nuanyu had taught him at the Academy, it was rather simple. When he had just arrived at the Academy, he couldn’t even get used to living at the Academy.
“Senior brother, how can we live in this place? There isn’t even a proper inn here.”
He looked at the passing passersby and the fishermen whose skin seemed to be covered with rust. His eyes were filled with resistance.
An Zheng laughed, “How can we sleep? This is our first task point. If we can’t even find the task point anywhere, or anything inside, we can only gloomily return to the academy to be mocked by others.” Before leaving, the Vice Principal said that there were six task points on the way here, and only if we can find all six points, can we go to the Medicine Valley to buy the Essence Crystal s that are among them. Without the Essence Crystal s, do you think the Pill King Valley would give us sucrecious item on credit? ”
La Fei scoffed, “It’s obviously our fault, when Wei Choumou was leading the way to Pill King Valley, he flew on the carriage arranged by the academy. When we went to Pill King Valley to rest for a few days and then return, we only walked two hundred and twenty kilometers in a single day. We didn’t even dare blink on the way, afraid that we would miss a clue.”
An Zheng said, “But we still didn’t discover anything along the way, not even a hint.”
La Fei replied, “I don’t know what the Vice Principal is thinking. We are all cultivators, and yet we have to act like a bunch of kids leaving the house … What a waste of time. Rather than wasting time on the road, it would be better to go to Pill King Valley’s Savage Mountain and take a look around.
“It’s better to persevere on. Six task points. If we give up on the first one, forget about the vice principal, I wonder what kind of laughter the disciples of the academy will have.”
Quang Shan interjected from the side, “If I really get laughed at when I go back, then I won’t have the face to continue staying in the academy anyways.”
An Zheng nodded his head, “If that’s the case, then we won’t be able to find any clues tonight. The twelve of us will split into four groups, and search around this small town. ”
Qilian snorted. “You are the leader. You have the final say …” This is the only ferry in the area, and flying there with our strength is easy. However, we have to walk like ordinary people, crossing the river and going out to gain experience is simply suffering. ”
Originally, she wanted to let Yuan Yandi lead the group of five to split into two, but she just shook her head and refused. With the fatty La Fei going to be their team leader, An Zheng told him to bring the two level 3 disciples out to search for clues. Of the remaining two teams, one was led by Quanshan, the other by Qi Lianyin.
Originally, there were only two people left standing by An Zheng’s side. However, he did not know what method Yuan Yandi used to have that level 3 disciple run over to find La Fei.
An Zheng walked beside Yuan Yandi and was silent for a while. After that, he lowered his voice and asked: “How do you know that someone is trying to kill me?”
Yuan Yandi squinted as he glanced at An Zheng, and there was some slight contempt.
“You don’t need to worry about how I know. You only need to remember that I was personally called here by Mr. Wen.”
After saying that, Yuan Yandi quickened his pace and left. An Zheng was stunned for a while … In other words, the teacher in charge of the Academy predicted that this trip would not be peaceful, and thus arranged for Yuan Yandi to come and remind An Zheng. But since he knew something was wrong, why didn’t he just send the boat away?
He couldn’t think of anything else at the moment, so An Zheng decided to stop thinking about it. Mou Zhongping said that all the Essence Crystal used to purchase herbs were divided into six parts and hidden in six parts. Only after completing a mission could he open the box and retrieve the Essence Crystal s.
However, An Zheng suspected that they might have forgotten to f * cking leave any clues behind after they hid the chest. They walked so slowly on their way, but they did not discover anything. On the way out, Mu Zongping said that anything that you might think was wrong could be a clue.
However, nothing seemed to be amiss along the way.
This sudden experiential learning seemed to have been the most wrong thing to do from the beginning.
Yuan Yandi walked very quickly as he followed behind with a certain distance between them. This woman looked abnormal, she knew more than An Zheng. She had directly named Qong Shan and Qi Lianying to kill him. Could it be that the academy’s teacher, Gu Xiancheng, was up to no good?
At this moment, the sound of a gong suddenly came from ahead, followed by a loud shout, “Fellow villagers, today we fished out a demon beast’s corpse from the Su Lanjiang River, can any of you recognize what this is? “If there’s anyone who knows what’s good, then it’s useless for us to keep the corpse of this demon beast here. If someone offers the right price, we’ll sell it, and we’ll distribute the money we’ve earned to the villagers of Feng Lin Du.”
The one who shouted was an old man who appeared to be in his fifties. His face was tanned, and it was obvious that he spent most of his time on the surface of the river under the sun. However, he looked extremely strong. Ordinary young men might not be his match.
An Zheng saw that Yuan Yandi had walked over, so he followed him to take a look.
The demonic beast lying on the ground looked rotten. Judging from its body shape, it should bype of flood dragon. It had a thick and tough outer armor. Normal blades and swords would not be able to break it. There was a terrible wound on the belly of this demon beast. It should have been bitten to death by other demon beasts.
“This is a Jiang Long, he should be a young head. This is a bad omen.”
Someone in the crowd exclaimed, “You are still fishermen in vain. You don’t even know who Jiang Long is. “Jiang Long is the most protective son. If the adult Jiang Long were to come and smell the scent, the whole town would probably be slaughtered in no time. Everyone, let’s leave quickly. This is a land of war.”
Hearing this person’s words, many people immediately left.
That old man should be the mayor of Feng Lin Du, and after hearing that person say that, his face also changed, “But on our Feng Lin Du river, there have never been any demon beasts … … What should I do? ”
“Mayor, hurry up and throw him back into Su Lanjiang. We can’t let him get into trouble.”
“That’s right. If this thing really has parents, this young one should be around ten meters tall. A mature River Dragon wouldn’t be much bigger.”
Hearing this, the mayor panicked. He could only order the town’s robust youths to drag the corpse back to Su Lanjiang.
An Zheng’s mind suddenly stirred, and he shouted from the crowd: “I’ll buy this item, you guys can leave it to me.”
An Zheng took a big step forward and retrieved some silver bills from his spatial ring to hand to the mayor. “I will take this thing’s corpse tlace very far away from the town to deal with it. You guys can use water to wash this place.
When the old man saw the amount on the silver note, he was shocked. His hands trembled, but he didn’t dare to pick it up.
“Take it.”
An Zheng stuffed the silver bills into the old man’s hands, and then prepared to take Jiang Long’s corpse away. But right at this moment, Jiang Long’s corpse suddenly split open, and a human corpse rolled out from within.
“It’s none of my business.”
The mayor shouted, turned around, and ran. The crowd let out a series of screams, and soon, there was no one left. However, most of them did not run far. They hid and watched from the sidelines.
An Zheng squatted down to take a look. It was a man’s corpse, which looked to be around forty years old. Judging from the corpses, they had died less than a day ago. They hadn’t rotted away yet, but they had swelled up.
“Something’s not right.”
An Zheng looked at the human corpse and then looked at the corpse of the demon beast, “The death of a demon beast has already lasted for at least six or seven days, and this person has been dead for less than a day …”
Yuan Yandi immediately understood what An Zheng meant and his face turned ugly: “That means to say, this person was killed and stuffed into the Spirit Demon corpse.”
An Zheng found something to turn the body over and noticed that there waole in the man’s chest. Clearly, his heart had been dug out.
“It’s a little strange.”
An Zheng stood up, then used a wooden stick to open the hole on the demon beast’s corpse: “The Demonic Beast Cores is also gone, the human heart is no more …”
In the end, Yuan Yandi could not hold it in and turned around to puke. An Zheng had been investigating the body for many years, so there was basically nothing that he liked. He carefully looked at it, and the more he looked, the more puzzled he became.
It had only been a day or so since the death of a person, and An Zheng could already determine it from the degree of damage that the corpse could cause. However, upon closer inspection, he found out that the wound on his chest was at least ten days old... In other words, it was simply impossible for this man to live for ten days after his heart was dug out.
A person whose heart had been dug out was stuffed into the corpse of a demon beast. It seemed like the demon beast had only been dead for seven or eight days. The person had been dead for a day or so … It was too strange.
At this moment, someone shouted from afar, “Not good! Everyone run! The demon beasts are coming to avenge us!”
Soon after, the surface of the river began to churn, and the huge waves flipped over a few ferries docked by the shore. Waves of water surged onto the land, sweeping away those who didn’t manage to escape in time. Soon, there was no trace of them.
Then there was an island like thing that floated up from under the water, like a craggy rock. It was obviously the back of a huge dragon. The bulging part of its armor looked even harder than the rocks.
This huge river dragon actually didn’t come ashore. Witoar, dozens of river dragons, about twenty meters in length, floated up from the water and started rushing towards the shore. An Zheng still did not understand much about the beasts of this era, judging from the corpses, this Jiang Long was around a mid-ranked demon beast, which was equivalent to a peak Red Rank demon beast in Da Xi era.
And the biggest one seemed to already have an aura at the peak of the Golden-Rank. Once sucerrifying thing landed on the shore, it would be massacred within a radius of several hundred miles.
“You should contact the others to get out of the way. I’ll go stop them.”
An Zheng shouted towards Yuan Yandi as he carried his Eight-Fold Black Heavy Ruler and rushed to the shore. However, at this time, all of the river dragons that had landed on the shore stood up. Their strange appearances made one’s scalp tingle … Every single one of them had a hole in their stomach, and inside that hole waale and ghastly face.
