After the fairy disappeared

The monsters in Panlong Wasteland were either killed, subdued, or incorporated. Even ancient monsters like Zhu Erniang started doing business with Panlong City.

Want to harass the village and eat a few living people?

Panlong patrol will come to settle accounts in a few days.

"How can you have such ability?" Wang Wei smiled bitterly, "Before the establishment of the Julu Kingdom, the three families here fought for each other. Even boys under the age of twelve were dragged into the army to fight. They all reserved their strength to deal with others. Well, who do you think is free to kill these bear monsters?"

He went on to say: "In those days, there was no need to hunt bears, monsters, wolves or monsters when they came down the mountain. There were so many dead people on the roadside, in the wilderness and in the village that they couldn't even eat them all. If it wasn't easy to get food, how could the evil beasts in Baimao Mountain gather so many? Alas, This is what I have witnessed with my own eyes, and I hope I will never live like that again in this life.”

Everyone was silent.

No one understands the cruelty of war better than them.

When human beings are weak, demons and ghosts become stronger.

Hu Min asked again: "Is the White Bear King very strong?"

"It is said to be very powerful." Wang Wei said, "In the autumn of nine years ago, before the Julu Kingdom was established, the remnants of the army defeated by our monarch fled into Baimao Peak, probably wanting to go straight to the Eastern Min Kingdom, but -"

He shook his finger: "There are more than five hundred people, and not one of them came out!"

"Everyone was eaten?" Only then did everyone realize how powerful it was. No matter how weak the remnant army is, they can still fight better than ordinary people, and they may still have some vitality at their side.

As a result, they also died in the bear's belly.

"Isn't that right?" Wang Wei sighed, "The monsters on the White Hair Peak are particularly vicious in spring and autumn."

Bear monsters have to hibernate, so they are especially edible when they look for food in the fall or in the spring.

"The officials don't care?" Isn't King Julu very considerate of people's livelihood?

"No matter what, this group of monsters is very cunning, and the terrain of Bai Mao Peak is complicated. The official team organized twice to fight against the monsters failed. Recently, Dong Min invaded our northwest territory, and Wang Ting has no spare time to allocate manpower to fight against the bear monsters. "Wang Wei sighed, "Our area is full of disasters, and there are also many monsters and ghosts. Now that the disaster of war has been temporarily eliminated, everyone's life is still miserable."

He Lingchuan asked casually: "There are so many monsters nearby? Where else?"

Wang Wei was right. There was less spiritual energy in the Golden Gold Plain than elsewhere, and more nightmare energy was lost than elsewhere. In addition, the country was small and weak, and even the energy was very thin, making it unable to resist and mitigate disasters.

If things go on like this, won't it become a difficult place?

"Two hundred miles northeast from here, there is the Howling Forest. I heard that it was originally an ancient battlefield, and the dead turned into ghosts and came out to cause trouble every year."

Arlo spat out a chicken bone and said, "Can't the nearby residents move away?"

If the tree is moved, it will die, but if the person is moved, it will live.

"Ten years ago, we had a tiger problem here. The tigers wandered into the villages and towns, and many people wanted to escape to the mountains to live." Wang Wei waved his hand, "How many people can the tiger eat in a year? If it stays here, alas! Giant! Before the founding of the Deer State, farmers had to hand over eight pounds of rice after harvesting ten pounds. What was left was not enough to eat. Some people couldn't bear the hunger and ate the rice seeds. If they didn't sell their children next year, the whole family would have to drink from the northwest wind. ."

He is also a person who has lived through that era, and he still has lingering fears when talking about it.

He Lingchuan comforted: "No matter what, the new king is wise and promising, and your life will gradually get better."

These words were just comfort, because he knew the future of this land very well.

What future is there?

Wang Gesheng answered: "Father, you just came back. I didn't know that the monarch issued a reward two months ago, asking strong men from all walks of life to come forward to eliminate the demon."

Hu Min laughed out loud: "Five hundred rebels were eaten by the mountain monster. Why don't others give two as a gift?"

This is called double death.

"No, no, we are recruiting strong men from the people to form a demon-fighting team." Wang Gesheng said seriously, "We originally recruited hundreds of people to go up the mountain together."

Hearing this, He Lingchuan shook his head: "This team is too big and conspicuous. Are they going up the mountain to fight monsters or being beaten by monsters? It's better to disperse and act flexibly and efficiently."

"Yes, Mr. He is absolutely right!" Wang Gesheng looked at him with admiration. "The White Bear King was cunning and avoided him from beginning to end. The demon-fighting team did not encounter a few wolves or bears. Instead, they were led by the White Bear King. Dozens of people died due to the intrusion. After suffering such a big loss, the demon-fighting team changed their tactics. They went into the mountains in teams of twenty or thirty people, set traps and bait, and dispersed to hunt."

He Lingchuan ate some peanuts: "The bear demons are lazy and have poor obedience. The White Bear King can restrain them for a while, but he cannot restrain them for ten and a half months."

When he was patrolling the Chipa Plateau, he killed a lot of bear monsters. Moreover, Fan Bao, the third commander of the Tongxin Guards in Lingxu City, was also a giant bear.

He knows the virtues of the bear demon best.

This White Bear King's subordinates are by no means as obedient and as strong in execution as Zhu Erniang's children.

"Yes, it's easier to fight if you divide and defeat them. In the past two months, various demon-fighting teams have taken more than 30 bears, more than 500 wolves, and many scattered little demons to collect rewards. I heard that the monarch is happy Extremely."

The plan of the Julu Kingdom is to first use the private demon-killing team to pull out the White Bear King's minions, so that it will be much easier to deal with the real master later.

Only civilians can spend so much time going into the mountains and repeatedly dealing with bear monsters and wolf monsters. There's no way that Julu's army could wander around the mountains for two months just to hunt down monsters.

"The Julu Kingdom is rich." How can you play like this without money? While fighting the Eastern Min Kingdom on the western front, he was also paying large sums of money to offer bounties on the monsters in Baimao Mountain. At the same time, he had to take care of the people's livelihood in the country.

Why are small countries so constrained and unable to do anything?

After all, is it not because of lack of money?

"I don't know, maybe it's because the country has been peaceful and the people have been safe in the past few years?" Wang Wei scratched his head, "There was a flood five years ago."

"The White Bear King seems to have been angered. Several demon-killing teams went into the mountains and never came back. Everyone said they met the White Bear King." Wang Gesheng drank another glass of wine, this time a little anxious, and coughed several times, " In previous years, the bear monster would come down from the mountain and attack nearby villages. However, the White Bear King went to Rong Town a few days ago."

Wang Wei's eyes widened: "Rong Town? Have they gone to Rong Town?"

Where is Rong Town? Few outsiders don't understand it.

"It's less than twenty miles away from the capital. It's a good place specializing in melons and fruits." Wang Gesheng explained to them, "Now it's become a ghost town. The White Bear King launched an attack at night, and more than 600 people in the town, including the elderly and children, were killed. Most people only kill them but don’t eat them.”

This is revenge, Chi Guoguo's revenge.

"The great demon in ancient times was said to be able to eat a whole city of people." Hu Min shook his head, "If this White Bear King continues to develop, it will be almost there."

"When word of this spread, everyone in the capital was in danger. The king was furious and sent out the garrison of the capital to hunt monsters."

He turned to Wang Wei, swallowed before saying, "Father, I also signed up."

The wine in Wang Wei's mouth spurted out with a pop: "What are you?!"

"The bounty is very generous, if I..."

"Cancel!" Wang Wei didn't care about He Lingchuan's presence. He slapped the table and stood up, "Do you need a few dollars at home? Do you want to pay for it with your life? The White Bear King is such a powerful monster that even ordinary armies can't do anything to him! You You have only learned magical powers for a few days and you dare to look for it? That's not killing demons, that's sending death! Cancel your registration and don't go!"

Wang Gesheng seemed to have known that his father would react this way, and said softly: "If you sign up, you can't cancel it."

"I just signed up, can't I cancel it?" Wang Wei sneered, "I recognize your guard chief, his daughter is studying in my school! I'll ask him if I can cancel it!"

After saying this, he remembered that there was a group of people like He Lingchuan beside him. After a moment of embarrassment, he was about to excuse himself and leave the table.

He Lingchuan said, "Master Wang, please don't get angry. Your son is very smart."

"But……"

"In the past, it hid in Baimao Mountain and played hide-and-seek with you in its own territory. It was difficult for you to find it; now it has come to your territory. Not to mention other things, it is not a place where it can stay long near the capital. The White Bear King will always end up It's going back to the mountain. As long as you predict its return route, you can catch it off guard." He Lingchuan said firmly, "It shouldn't have come out."

"Furthermore, the White Bear King has bullied them to the vicinity of the capital. If the monarch does not suppress them, there is nothing they can do. The capital guards have Yuan Power in their bodies, and with them leading the charge, as long as your son does not take advantage of others and rush forward, the danger will be greatly reduced."

This is a good opportunity for Wang Gesheng. He scratched his head and felt a little confused. He didn't know that He Lingchuan had read all of his thoughts.

Yes, he just thought the opportunity was good, so he wanted to get involved.

After hearing what he said, Wang Wei was stunned and his anger subsided, but he still said: "I, I will go out."

After saying that, he left home in a hurry.

Seeing his figure disappearing outside the door, He Lingchuan asked Wang Gesheng, "Does anyone know the ways of the White Bear King?"

"Some say three hundred years, some say five hundred years, but my teammate's father saw it a few years ago and said it was not big, only slightly larger than an ordinary white bear. I don't know why it is so powerful and invulnerable." Wang Gesheng He sighed, "It led the bear demon to attack a town, which was once a military town, and there was a siege crossbow on the gate tower. The local defenders raised the siege crossbow and shot the White Bear King, but it was unharmed! Everyone took a look. , then why fight? They dispersed in a hurry."

The most intuitive reflection of a monster's behavior is often its body shape.    Some monsters become deeper and larger in size, while others are just the opposite.

However, judging from He Lingchuan's experience in suppressing bears in Panlong Wasteland and Maohe Plain in recent years, the larger the bear monster is, the deeper its path is. The White Bear King has so many monsters running rampant and can eat an army of five hundred people. It is still a big monster, at least it should be more powerful than King Sven.

But it's only one size larger than an ordinary white bear? Doesn't sound very scientific.

The door panel said on the side: "Maybe the guard saw it wrong and shot other white bears."

Real battle scenes are often chaotic, and mistakes are common.

"No, no, there is a diamond-shaped black spot on the chest of the White Bear King, which is very obvious. It is said that the soldiers on the wall aimed at this black spot, and the siege crossbow did hit the White Bear King."

"Diamond-shaped black? What is that?"

Wang Gesheng said honestly: "I don't know either."

He thought for a while and went out.

He Lingchuan and others went to Julu Port for a few rounds to experience the customs and customs that were completely different from those of later generations. They also replenished fruits and dry food and bought a large bag of walnuts for the door panel.

The bear monster descended from the mountain to hurt people and reached the capital. It was a hot topic in the port today and was discussed everywhere. The port guards patrolling are all fully armed, and there are many people wearing armor and carrying weapons, coming and going in a hurry, but they are not officers and soldiers. They look a lot like the demon slayers that Wang Gesheng said.

People are panicking and public opinion is surging. This time, the Julu Kingdom and the White Bear King vow to be at odds with each other.

When He Lingchuan returned to Wang's guest house, he almost bumped into Wang Gesheng before he entered the courtyard.

The young man had a sword on his waist, a bow and arrow on his back, and a bag on his shoulder. He looked like he was about to go on a far journey.

Wang Wei stood at the back with a sad look on his face.

"Where are you going?"

"The White Bear King attacked Hezhen again last night!" Wang Gesheng said hurriedly, "Wang Ting has found the whereabouts of the monsters, and now he is summoning all the demon slayers to hunt down the White Bear King together with the Capital Guard! There are at least three thousand people in that team , Father, don’t worry!”

By the last few words, people have already stepped out of the house.

Wang Wei was hissing and sighing from behind. It seemed that he was defeated in the confrontation between father and son.

He Lingchuan comforted him a few words, and without changing his clothes, he took Hu Min and others to rent a few horses and left Julu Port heading north.

Now that it is certain that the White Bear King has left Bai Maofeng, this is a good time for him to get the lantern.

Compared with later generations, the road conditions of this trade road were roughly the same, with only a few more turns. Although it is not as busy as the main road in Blade Port, there is an endless stream of merchants coming and going. It is obvious that it is shouldering the heavy responsibility of transportation to and from the mainland at this time.

The Julu Kingdom is well governed, and there are not as many bandits on this road as there were in later generations.

Hu Min asked him:

"Our target is in the White Bear King's lair? This monster also collects bright lamps?"

Does the practice of monsters also involve inner demons? Hu Min never thought about this problem.

"It's hard to say this." He Lingchuan was riding a horse, very relaxed, "We came at the wrong time, not in the mature period of Ming Dengzhan."

Ming lanterns ripen every thirty years. The next time it matures will be thirteen years later.

"That?"

"But there is good news, at least for us. The White Bear King occupied Baimao Mountain twenty years ago. In other words, the Ming Dengzhan matured during the period when it occupied the mountain as king, so it was probably not taken away by humans."

The door panel was also curious after hearing this: "Did the White Bear King take it away?"

"The chance is very small." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "The light grass is very interesting. You cut a red rope into two pieces, tie one section to the light grass, and then recite a code word. Then next time you go up the mountain, As long as you tie another piece of red string around your wrist and recite this code word repeatedly, Bao will definitely be able to meet it. If not-"

He shook his head: "You can't find it even if you break your legs."

The door panel was amazed: "Can this grass run away?"

"Why not? It's just that he doesn't walk with his legs like a human being." He Lingchuan said, "Although the White Bear King lives on Baimao Mountain, it has never been on a leash with the Light Grass in advance. This Spirit Grass may not pay attention to it. . On Baimao Mountain, they are neighbors who never see each other."

"Besides, Baimao Mountain was not originally called this name, but was called 'Longshou Mountain'. According to legend, the ancient ancestors died here when they saw a black dragon falling from the sky."

When all the guards heard the legend, they all found it interesting: "What a coincidence, we also have a black dragon totem in our city."

In fact, this record was not sent back to Panlong City by Shao Jian, but He Lingchuan learned it from Shao Jian's notes from later generations.

Hu Min followed: "If the black dragon died here, the earth's atmosphere in Longshou Mountain should be very good."

When a whale falls, all things are born.

What about Dragon Death?

He Lingchuan shook his head: "What kind of feng shui treasure mountain is the place where the dragon died? The place where the dragon rises is better. The so-called hidden dragon ascending to the sky is unstoppable."

There was another consideration in his mind:

How does Dafang Pot recreate the history here?

In the past, when he entered the world of Panlong, it was either the Panlong Wasteland, the old land of Xiqiao or Yuheng City, which were not far from the location of Dafang Hu. Dafanghu has experienced that history personally, so it is not surprising at all that it can reappear.

But what about Julu Port and Golden Plains?

This place should not be within the range of Dafang Hu’s perception. In other words, Dafang Hu should know nothing about this area.

Why can the square pot reproduce the history of this unknown world with nose and eyes?

He Lingchuan also noticed a detail:

This history only unfolded after he set foot in Julu Port in reality.

Is it because the sacred bone necklace came here that it read the past history of this area?

Where did the square pot come from?

But there is one thing that makes He Lingchuan feel at ease:

The history, deviations and fallacies reproduced by Dafanghu should be very small, and can provide comparison and assistance for his actions in reality.

In this way, he had another angle to observe the Golden Plains:

historical dimension.

The more angles of observation, the less likely it is to make mistakes.

The door panel asked him: "Boss, where are we going now?"

Hu Min immediately said: "If the White Bear King does not have a bright lamp in his hand, we will naturally find the person with clues, that is - the holder of the red rope?"

He Lingchuan gave him a definite answer:

"Correct."

The news Shao Jian sent to Panlong City was that he had found the holder of the red rope.

He Lingchuan didn't know how he found it, but Shao Jian was always very capable.

This man lives in Knife Town near Julu Port. He inherited the red rope and code words from his father.

He was willing to sell these two things to Shao Jian, but Shao Jian couldn't tell the authenticity because the man was unwilling to go up the mountain at that time——

Are you kidding me? There is a man-eating bear demon on Baimao Mountain. There is no luck in whoever goes there and dies. No matter how valuable the lantern was, he couldn't enter the mountain.

Slaying demons is not Shao Jian's strong point. Besides, he has a more important task in hand, so he sent the news to Panlong City.

Then, He Lingchuan came.

Dao Town is an ordinary town with less than 200 residents, but it relies on Julu Port to do some freight business. Julu Port has been booming in recent years, its cargo throughput has increased significantly, and the lives of the townspeople have also improved significantly.

He Lingchuan followed Shao Jian's prompts and found the person holding the rope for Ming Dengzhan.

This is an ordinary resident, with three or four patches on his summer jacket. Enthusiastic villagers led He Lingchuan to the door of his house and shouted "Old Liu" when he climbed to the roof to mend the thatch to prevent water leakage on rainy days.

His residence was only seven or eight square meters larger than He Lingchuan's wooden house in Panlong City.
