I'm not a god anymore

The rugged mountain roads, steep mountains, and primitive dense forests all receded quickly behind everyone.

Although Lu Heng and Xiao Ai's footsteps seem to be very slow, they are several feet away in one step. They walked in the mountains and forests easily and comfortably. All the wild animals in the mountains they encountered along the way were scared and fled in panic.

Huo Feng, who was lying on the back of the barge, tightly hugged the barge's neck, for fear of being thrown out.

This barge is worthy of being a beast that can travel thousands of miles a day, even in such a rugged wilderness and forest, it can maintain an extremely fast speed.

In Lu Heng's previous life, it was not uncommon for vehicles to travel thousands of miles a day, but they needed smooth, open and good roads.

But this barge can run fast in the wooded wilderness, completely ignoring gravity, and it can easily overturn all obstacles.

Even the surging river water, this barge can directly step over the waves and wade through the water.

Seeing such a scene that breaks common sense, Lu Hengzhi sighed, it is worthy of being a strange beast, and it really cannot be judged by common sense.

By the time the sun was setting and the stars and the moon were hanging high, the crowd had already traveled thousands of miles southward away from the boundaries of Baishi City.

Huo Feng was lying on the horse's back, his eyes were dazed, and his tinnitus kept ringing.

This experience of running wildly on the back of a barge horse for a day, if converted to Lu Heng's previous life, can probably be regarded as lying on the roof of a high-speed car all day.

Huo Feng's eardrums hurt from the howling wind when the barge horse galloped wildly.

Although Lu Heng, who was with him, gave him some protection, the young man still looked like he was about to die.

"I... I found out for the first time that it's not good to go too fast," Huo Feng slid off the barge with a bitter expression on his face, sat on the ground and sighed.

Lu Heng smiled and said, "Stop sighing, sit down and rest. Xiao Ai, pour Brother Huo a glass of wine to relieve his fatigue."

Lu Heng's words made Huo Feng's eyes light up instantly.

He hurriedly got up from the ground, walked over with his slowly swaying body with a blue face, and said with a smile, "It's so expensive, Lord Wolf God is too expensive."

Lu Heng laughed, but didn't speak.After watching Xiao Ai take out the peach blossom wine and pour Huo Feng a cup, he said, "Take a rest and sleep well. We will continue our journey tomorrow."

Huo Feng happily held the peach blossom wine that the little girl poured for him, and nodded repeatedly.

Although I haven't finished it yet, but with this glass of peach blossom wine bestowed by the wolf god, the whole day's sleepiness is completely worth it!

After drinking the peach blossom wine, Huo Feng immediately crossed his knees and closed his eyes, trying to sort out the aura in his body with the help of the peach blossom wine.

Although there was still no effect in the end, the sleepiness in the body has been completely eliminated.

There was nothing to say all night, and the red-haired woman did not chase after her again.After dawn the next day, Lu Heng and the others set out on the road again.

This time, it was still galloping all the way to the south.

However, in order to take care of Huo Feng, Lu Heng took the initiative to slow down.When night falls, everyone will have traveled thousands of miles.

In this way, rushing on the road during the day and resting at night, Lu Heng and the others passed through one barren mountain after another, and crossed one big river after another.

Finally arrived at Youtian Valley on the fifth day after being separated from the red-haired woman.

By this time, the roads under Lu Heng's feet began to be dominated by plains, and steep and rugged mountain roads like Baishi City were rare.

Even if there are mountains in sight, they are mostly low hills.

The plains with smooth roads form a vast land.The complicated water system flowing on the plain divided the entire southern plain into fragments.

And Youtian Valley is located on the edge of such a vast plain, in a mountain range that is not too steep.

The mountain is shrouded in white mist all the year round, and strangers are not allowed to enter.

While walking in the mountains, Huo Feng explained, "It is rumored that there is a spring in Youtian Valley, the spring water is so cold that if a living person touches it, his flesh and bones will disappear."

"But the spring water is miraculous, but few people come here."

"It's because this Youtian Valley is shrouded in white mist all year round, and there are ghostly shadows lingering in the mist. If ordinary living people rush in rashly, they will be dismembered and die."

"Thus, although Youtian Valley is only forty miles away from Youshi City, the residents in the city never dare to approach this mountain, so it is rarely visited by people."

While Huo Feng explained, they had already stepped into the misty mountains.

The moment he entered the mist, Lu Heng frowned slightly, feeling a little chilly.

This white mist is indeed no ordinary fog in the mountains.

And Huo Feng led the barge on foot in the mist, not daring to stay too far away from Lu Heng.

As he walked, he said, "Not long ago, I met a brother from Yunmen, and I heard the news from him that a witch girl, one of the ten witches in Lingshan, came to Youtian Valley to refine medicine recently."

"According to legend, this witch girl is the one with the best temper and the most compassionate heart among the ten witches in Lingshan. Now I bring this fat relic bird to the door, maybe I can ask her to heal me."

As Huo Feng said, he looked at the birdcage hanging on the pack horse.

In the birdcage, the fat relict bird has lost the vigor it had when it was first caught after these few days of travel, and now it is lying sickly in the birdcage, shaking with the shaking of the birdcage up and down, completely It's the appearance of giving up struggling.

Seeing the sickly appearance of this strange bird, Huo Feng couldn't help laughing, "This fat relic bird is supernatural, if I use it, it's just to sell it for money, or as an antidote to expel Gu insects."

"But Miss Wu's medical skills are profound, and if this fat bird falls into her hands, it will be regarded as the best of everything... huh?"

Just as Huo Feng was halfway through his words, he suddenly noticed something, stopped his figure abruptly, frowned and looked towards the mist in front of him.

Pale mist lingered in the valley.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the mouth of Youtian Valley.

Although they couldn't see the appearance of the valley clearly due to the fog, the stone tablet engraved with the words "Youtian Valley" at the entrance of the valley was clearly visible.

But what attracted Huo Feng's attention was not the stele, but the strange noise in the Youtian Valley.

Just now, in a trance, he seemed to see a figure walking through the Youtian Valley...

Lu Heng looked at the valley in front of him and said, "The cold air in this valley is a bit stronger than outside. It's not surprising that there are ghostly things entrenched in such a dark place... It's okay, just move forward , I will protect you well."

Lu Heng's words made Huo Feng heave a sigh of relief, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Wolf God."

After finishing speaking, Huo Feng took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and walked directly into the fog in front of him.

And behind him, the huge white wolf and the little girl with silver hair and animal ears followed in silently.

The moment the two of them stepped into the valley together, the mist surged, and in the depths of the white mist, something seemed to be alarmed...

Chapter 90 The Human-faced Owl

The Youtian Valley shrouded in mist is a frightening legend about the city outside the mountain, and strangers are not allowed to enter it.

But for the monks of Cloud Gate, the ghostly shadow in the mist is not scary.

Because although this Youtian Valley is inaccessible, there are not a few practitioners passing by to explore it.Some monks have explored the existence of ghosts in the valley.

Although it is extremely terrifying to ordinary people, if you have cultivation base, you don't need to be too afraid.

Although Huo Feng has lost all his cultivation, but with the wolf god by his side, he also has the courage to set foot here.

However, although he was prepared in his heart, the moment he really stepped into the Youtian Valley, feeling the sudden coldness in the air that was several times stronger, Huo Feng could not help but shiver, his face turned slightly pale.

It's early summer, and it's hot.But the Youtian Valley shrouded in white mist was extremely cold, like the midwinter season, Huo Feng felt goosebumps all over his body, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Subconsciously, he quietly leaned in the direction of the wolf god, for fear that something terrifying would rush out of the mist.

Lu Heng followed behind Huo Feng, frowning and looking at Youtian Valley in front of him.

In the valley shrouded in white mist, lush green grass is everywhere, and there are small white flowers blooming in the grass.It looks serene and peaceful.

If it weren't for the weird scene of thick fog, the scenery of this valley could be called a paradise.

It's just that the further you go in, the more intense the chill in the air, and the temperature is getting lower and lower.

Huo Feng had already loosened the reins of the barge horse, rubbing his arms while walking, and said, "It's so cold..."

In the mist in front of them, there were one after another of terrifying figures wandering vaguely.

They were all figures in terrible death, like ghosts, with hideous faces, floating in the mist.

It's just that wherever Lu Heng went, these ghostly figures who would rush up when they saw a living person all retreated in panic, as if they felt the lingering thunder spirit around Lu Heng.

When Huo Feng saw this scene, he was not surprised.

Ordinary monks who entered the Youtian Valley, although they don't have to be afraid of these ghosts, but they just rely on their cultivation base to quickly travel through the valley to avoid the entanglement of these ghosts.

Wherever Lu Heng went, it was not only the first time he saw ghosts retreating, but also the first time he heard of it.

But the wolf god can even control the power of thunder, and avoid evil spirits wherever he goes. Isn't this a matter of course?

After seeing all the ghostly figures in the mist fleeing in a hurry, Huo Feng finally let go of his worries, and began to think about how to speak after meeting the witch girl next time.

Lu Heng, on the other hand, observed the ghostly figures in the mist, frowning slightly.

There is no nether world in this world, and the soul will dissipate directly after death.Only one kind of soul can survive in the world.

——That is the evil thing that harbors resentment and turns into a ghost.

After entering Youtian Valley, Lu Heng saw at a glance that these ghosts wandering in the mist were not evil spirits.And judging by the style of his clothes, he might be the dead resident of Youzhi City not far away.

The souls of these residents linger after death, wandering and entrenched in this mountain, but they don't have the evil spirit of ghosts... Could it be related to the fog in the Youtian Valley?

In this mist, there is a cold and evil spirit that does not exist in the outside world. Is it this evil force that maintains the existence of these souls?Keep them from dissipating?

So what is the source of this evil force?

Lu Heng followed Huo Feng, feeling the evil spirit that became stronger as he walked in, and finally saw the source of all this.

An icy lake.

At the end of this Youtian Valley, there is a pool of cold and dim lake water.

Above the lake is the only area in Youtian Valley where there is no fog. Lu Heng and the others can clearly see the small island in the lake and the thatched cottage on the small island.

It can be seen that the thatched cottage has not been built for a long time, and the grass stems on the roof even have a little greenness.

On the open space in front of the thatched hut, there stood a medicine furnace emitting a faint red light, and amidst the steaming heat, it seemed that some kind of secret medicine was being refined.

Seeing this scene, Huo Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He hurriedly walked to the lake, bowed to the thatched hut in the lake, and said loudly, "I'm going down to Huo Feng, Yunmen, and bring the fat of the different bird to visit Miss Wu. I beg Miss Wu to be merciful."

Huo Feng's voice spread far in the mist.

However, before the empty cottage, there was no response.

Huo Feng was a little confused and worried, could it be that my gift couldn't impress the witch girl?

But he heard the wolf beside him say, "There is no one in this hut, and Aunt Wu is not here."

"Ah?" Huo Feng raised his head in astonishment, and looked at the cottage in the lake.

But seeing a huge strange bird flying out of the thatched hut, he laughed and said, "That's right, Aunt Wu is not here. The old lady has gone out to play, and only my uncle is here... Boy from the Cloud Gate, you take me with you!" Fat Relic Bird came to the door, did you want to ask Aunt Wu to help you heal your illness?"

"It's a pity that the old woman has a weird temper, and she will definitely not heal you even here. Fortunately, my uncle is kind, you bring the fat left bird over and let me have a look, maybe this deity can cure you."

The strange bird's laughter was shrill and hoarse, which made people feel uncomfortable.

And its figure is even more weird.

It's not that big, but it's about the size of an ordinary ape.A pair of gray-black wings spread out, revealing the ape-like body covered with fluff, but the feet are sharp claws of raptors, and above it is the head of a living person.

It's just that the face is gloomy and terrifying, one glance makes one's heart shudder, knowing that this is definitely not a kind person.

This strange bird is...

"Human-faced owl?!" Huo Feng was startled, and subconsciously took half a step back.

On the roof of the thatched cottage in the lake, the weird and frightening bird laughed loudly, mocking in a hoarse voice, "You are as cowardly as a mouse, is Yunmen all cowards like you? Don't worry, this deity has not eaten people for many years Now, you can bring your companions to wade through the water, and promise not to kill you."

"But I want to remind you first, the water in this secluded spring eats bones and ecstasy, and flesh and blood will die if you touch it. When you wade through the water, don't touch it."

Amidst the sharp laughter of the strange bird, the white wolf by the lake shook his head and said with a smile, "It's just not touching the water, what's so difficult about that?"

As he spoke, he took a step forward and stepped into the dark yellow turbid lake.

The invisible power of thunder spread under Lu Heng's feet, separating the cold spring water from his body.

He smiled and said, "Brother Huo, Xiaoai, follow me."

The little girl with silver hair and animal ears followed directly and walked with Lu Heng.

Although Huo Feng was terrified, seeing that the wolf god had stepped into the lake without incident, he led his barge and followed.

Two people, a wolf, and a barge horse walked straight from the dark yellow and turbid lake, and the cold water of the lake couldn't hurt them at all.

Seeing this scene, the human-faced owl on the grass hut screamed strangely and flew up and down in fright.

"Thunder! Thunder!"

"You monster! You can actually control the sky thunder... Don't come here! Don't come here!"
