The prince and concubine of the poor family will catch ghosts

Chapter 340 Canglan Highlands
A Tu blamed herself immensely in her heart. If she hadn't come late, Lu Xiaoguo wouldn't have run to the second floor out of curiosity, and even accepted such a weird task.

The news of Lu Xiaoguo's acceptance of this mission seemed to spread like wildfire. Immediately, many people knew about it. Shen Zhi and the others were even a little surprised, but their mood immediately became better.

Once you accept the mission on the second floor, you must not give it up. Even if you are rich and worthy of Lingyu, the mission cannot be erased from your mission token.

So this time, Lu Xiaoguo was dead.In Shen Zhi's opinion, this is the best news.Not for me, why keep it?He didn't have the ability to kill Lu Xiaoguo before, but now God can't see it and helped him, so why would he be unhappy?

However, they were still not Lu Xiaoguo's true self, so they naturally didn't know that although Lu Xiaoguo was a little surprised by this kind of task, he didn't take it seriously.According to the words of the Six Realms, if she can complete this task, she will accumulate a lot of blessings.After all, it was a mission issued by a dead person. Apart from the spiritual jade and prestige visible to the naked eye, there should be other unexpected things in revenge.

"Is there a deadline for this mission?" The Zizheng Mountain Conference is about to begin, and no one knows how many days it will take to complete this mission. What if I miss it?And she wanted to go to Longbo Country, how could she afford to delay?So he asked the steward.

Unexpectedly, the steward said: "As long as the mission on the second floor is received, if you don't automatically enter it after one day, the mission will automatically open."

As soon as these words came out, Ah Tu was so frightened that his head was covered with sweat, and he looked at Lu Xiaoguo with a frightened and worried face: "Xiaoguo, what should I do?"

Lu Xiaoguo didn't expect this mission to be so overbearing, but since it wasn't sent by a living person, it naturally couldn't be in line with common sense.I also regretted it for a while, if I knew it earlier, I wouldn't pick it up.But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to escape, so I can only ask the steward: "Is there a promotion for this task?"

The steward looked distressed, obviously not very clear about the news about this mission, he just opened his mouth and said: "I have been in the reward building for many years, no matter where it is, there are generally very few people who accept the second-floor missions, and even fewer complete the missions. , but judging from my experience and the name of this mission, this mission may have something to do with the story of the Canglan Highlands 1000 years ago."

Canglan Highland is the name of a place in the east. As the name suggests, its altitude is the second highest in the east, but it is a plain and wide land, with a large area of ​​old trees and old forests, where the natives of Canglan live. Most of them are good at fighting with The art of forging, however, rarely interacts with the outside world, and has been active in the old forests of the Canglan Highlands.

Until 1000 years ago, something happened in these tribal villages. The young ones died unexpectedly one after another, and even their bodies were incomplete. There was a breath of fear everywhere, until the great wizard in the tribe stood up, It was said that it was a curse from heaven, so the Canglan people moved away from the Canglan Highland one after another.

However, tens of thousands of children died there, and the cause of death is still unknown.

After that, this task appeared in the Xuanshang Building in Yucheng, which is the closest to Canglan Highland.

After listening to the steward, Lu Xiaoguo said thoughtfully: "In this way, the mission was issued by those dead children." It's a bit like those lonely ghosts in the Six Realms, but it's much more civilized here , not to take revenge directly, but to entrust others.

In this Outland, there is no such thing as soul consciousness, death is death, if there is no soul flying away, then the soul will be used as a training material, just like Xiumen, they rely on the soul as a training material, not aura.

Therefore, the others were shocked after hearing what the manager said, not as relaxed as Lu Xiaoguo.

After Lu Xiaoguo figured it out, she felt that it was not as mysterious as they thought. Even though she was about to enter the mission, she wanted to see how these children died!

At this time, someone kindly persuaded her, "There is still a day left before this task can be automatically opened. You have also helped me gain a lot of reputation these days. I am the host today, and we will not return until we are drunk!"

As soon as someone opened his mouth, other people also opened their mouths one after another, obviously with the intention of letting Lu Xiaoguo eat and drink so that he can go on the road happily.

Although the starting point is good, it is also too pessimistic.Lu Xiaoguo refused one by one, said goodbye to A Tu, and went back to the inn.

Although Ah Tu and Lu Xiaoguo haven't known each other for a long time, they have roughly figured out her character, and no one can change the decision, let alone this task that cannot be erased at all.So he thought back and forth, thinking of Lu Xiaoguo's kindness to him these days, he made a big determination in his heart.

He is going to steal Lu Xiaoguo's mission token and enter this mission for her.But before that, he wanted to say goodbye to his mother.

A Tu was full of worries, like a walking corpse, when he returned home, he saw that the door was half open, and from the corner of the moonlight, he saw a figure of a man from the fifth middle school.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, you still remember your husband." The voice belonged to Atu's mother, and the voice was very calm, without any waves at all.

A Tu hurriedly stopped in his tracks, only to hear a sigh from inside, and a middle-aged man's voice sounded: "I really never thought that you would give birth to that child." The voice was familiar, but A Tu Time but can't remember where I heard it.

Presumably because of the hard life and the lack of conditions for cultivation, Atu's mother, who had an extremely ordinary cultivation talent, gave up cultivation. Now she is like an ordinary woman, with many wrinkles on her face, and she has been facing her all the year round. Looking at the thin oil lamp, her eyes began to become cloudy.When she heard the other party's words, she smiled coldly: "In your eyes, I have always been a person who is greedy for vanity, and being with your husband is just a novelty for a while, isn't it?"

The other party didn't seem to expect her to say that, and she didn't make a sound for a long time, so the old and calm voice of Atu's mother was the only one in the room: "I don't hate anyone, I only hate myself. If it wasn't for me, my husband wouldn't be able to go Take that task. My mother loves me, if I didn't take into account the so-called face at that time, if I asked my husband to marry me in a good way, it wouldn't happen later." When she said this, her voice became lower and lower, More and more choked up, "These years I have always thought, if we are just ordinary people, with a life expectancy of only 100 years, it would be great."

The man sighed, "So you not only abolished your cultivation? You even sealed off your son's veins?"

"Have you seen him?" A Tu's mother suddenly raised her head and looked at the middle-aged man.

The man responded: "He is very similar to Ji Tan, I recognized him immediately."

Although Ah Tu outside didn't know who the man in the room was, but from their conversation, he knew many things that he didn't know before. He didn't work hard, but was blocked by his mother.

But Ah Tu didn't hate her mother, she always only hoped that she would be like an ordinary person, live, grow old, get sick and die, and live the past 100 years in a normal way.But he didn't want to be mediocre, let alone live for 100 years, so he practiced desperately.A Tu didn't take an extra step towards the house, but turned and ran towards the inn where Lu Xiaoguo lived.

Go crazy all the way.

He may not be smart, but he's not stupid either.He remembered that middle-aged man, the one he saw today was in the reward building.And from their words, A Tu also judged something.

He is not a bastard, his father may be in the task that Xiaoguo took.

Trapped inside, can't get out.

He wanted to rescue his father, with his passion at the moment.

in the inn.

Now Lu Xiaoguo's money is still relatively loose, and this Jiumolong is also considered honest, so Lu Xiaoguo opened an extra room.

Jiumolong just learned that Lu Xiaoguo had accepted the second-floor mission, but he was only slightly stunned for a moment before regaining his composure.Lu Xiaoguo gave him too many surprises, so many that he was numb, and he was too lazy to expect Lu Xiaoguo to die in that mission.Because he clearly knew that it was useless.

In the end, Lu Xiaoguo would still complete the task, come out of it intact, and then continue to be arrogant and domineering in front of his master, using himself as a lowly slave.

But Kumolong never realized that he was quite happy to be a slave.

As soon as Lu Xiaoguo told him to take care of A Tu mother and son, he went to pay the room fee for a few more days, then went back to the room, and then planned to enter the mission.

There is no way to hide from the left or right, this time will be delayed, it is better to go earlier.

Almost when she stuck the token between her eyebrows, a strange force appeared in the room, creating an air vortex, and then Lu Xiaoguo sucked Lu Xiaoguo into it.

But to Lu Xiaoguo, it was as simple as opening a door and walking into another room.

It was dark all around, the tall and old trees intertwined with each other, and the strange screams of monsters came from all directions. There was a lush bush above the head, and a small sky was exposed between the dense gaps, dotted with Brilliant star.

"Is this the Canglan Highland that has been around for more than 1000 years?" Lu Xiaoguo was a little puzzled, fully prepared, and probed inside.

With the help of the faint peripheral light above the sky, Lu Xiaoguo gradually got used to the dark night here and the terrifying cries coming from all directions, but he still didn't dare to be careless. Beside her, there was a scorching silver light.From a distance, Lu Xiaoguo looks like a walking star.

She never dared to underestimate any race, so she did not dare to show contempt for the so-called natives of the Canglan Highland. After all, in such an old forest, ancient beasts proliferate, but they can survive safely. Known survival skills.And the so-called forging technique.

Lu Xiaoguo knew this forging technique when he first came to Outland. Blacksmiths are just like the prosperous spell masters in those days. Even a low-level blacksmith can be respected by any family in this Outland.They can forge ordinary weapons in their hands. The higher the level of forging, the greater the power of the weapon, and it can even be compared with those spirit treasures.

It's just a pity that blacksmiths are born, just like the natives of the Canglan Highlands, they are born blacksmiths, but they never interact with outsiders, otherwise they would have broken the balance of the outer domain.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoguo suddenly had a bold guess. Could it be that the deaths of Cang Lan's children were all because someone was afraid of their natural forging skills?So in order to get rid of the root cause, start with the children?Or maybe they made such a big deal just to force them to leave Canglan?

She guessed idly, but found that she had walked two or three miles, but she didn't find any people. She couldn't help wondering whether she came to the Canglan more than 1000 years ago, or the Canglan now.

Suddenly, the front suddenly opened up. Among the huge towering old trees, there was actually a lake more than half a mile wide. The silver moon reflected, and the two moons faced each other. Fairyland.

Such a peaceful place, even if it has been lived for thousands of years, Lu Xiaoguo thinks it is much more interesting than the outside world.

With a sound of "huh", the water splashed in all directions, and the moon turned into broken shadows. In the silver water waves, a huge bloody mouth unexpectedly rushed towards her.

There was a strong smell of water in front of him, Lu Xiaoguo took several steps back until he touched the huge old tree behind him, then followed the old tree's trunk and flew all the way up into the sky.

The monster had an extremely long neck. It chased Lu Xiaoguo all the way with its head outstretched, and was caught off guard and bumped into a tree pole.Lu Xiaoguo on the top tightly grasped the violently trembling branch, and couldn't help laughing dumbly: "What kind of monster is this? It looks like it has a cultivation level of seven or eight. How can it be so stupid?"

Almost at the moment when the monster retreated into the water in pain, countless arrows rained over from all directions, so densely packed that there was no gap, and she had nowhere to escape.

Lu Xiaoguo was startled, and the silver moon ring beside him automatically formed a defense, but to Lu Xiaoguo's great surprise, the silver moon ring couldn't resist the arrow rain, and even a few arrow feathers broke into the defense layer.

As soon as he caught the strange arrow feathers, Lu Xiaoguo couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Is this the legendary forging technique?" Each of these arrow feathers is like a spiritual treasure, no wonder Yinyuehuan couldn't resist it.

The rain of arrows does not stop, and if it goes on for a long time, the silver moon ring will definitely be damaged, so Lu Xiaoguo has no choice but to open the umbrella of celestial secrets and use the umbrella of celestial secrets as a shield to get out of the rain of arrows.

She didn't believe it, there were archers everywhere, and in this ancient forest, not to mention the dense old trees, those shrubs and parasitic vines made it difficult for people to move an inch, and it was naturally impossible for those people to catch up with her.

But Lu Xiaoguo was wrong, what is an aborigine?Canglan people can live in this land, and even become the boss at the top of the food chain, it is definitely not for nothing.

Almost when she started to flee, those Canglan people hidden in the trees in the forest appeared one by one, and while walking on the ground in this difficult-to-walk mountain forest, they chased and rained arrows non-stop.

Lu Xiaoguo was dumbfounded, she definitely did not expect such a result, and she is now in a passive state, unfamiliar with the place, and cannot directly hurt others, so she has to keep running and hiding.

However, these people were like tarsal maggots, unable to get rid of them, she ran for three or four miles all the way, and the other side was rolling white, Lu Xiaoguo couldn't help getting impatient, running like this was not an option, because of the physical strength of these people Unexpectedly, this ancient forest is their kingdom, what advantage can I have in their territory?Besides, when it was dawn, it was not so easy for him to hide.

But at this moment, Lu Xiaoguo suddenly felt pulled by someone, and suddenly turned around to see a transparent child floating in the air, the child's face was covered with colorful symbols, his arms were bare, and his lower body was wearing a tiger skin trousers, and a necklace of bones hung around his neck.

"Come here." He said to Lu Xiaoguo, pointing at the giant tree behind, looking up, Lu Xiaoguo saw that a tree branch had actually built a bookstore.

The child turned around and floated towards the tree house. Lu Xiaoguo hadn't seen a ghost for a long time, so he couldn't react for a while, but found that the Canglan people seemed to lose sight of him, and even chased forward.

The giant tree is very big, each tree is almost as huge as the laurel tree under the osmanthus house back then, Lu Xiaoguo followed the child all the way to the tree house above, the closer he got, the more he found something was wrong.

The room is not very wide, just two rooms, and there is nothing inside except for the animal skins on the floor.

Lu Xiaoguo was just curious, the child suddenly said: "Since you are here, let's start."

He is not a human being, so when Lu Xiaoguo saw him, he could almost conclude that he had something to do with this task, but he didn't expect him to start without saying anything, which made Lu Xiaoguo confused.But before Lu Xiaoguo could ask, the child suddenly disappeared.

Lu Xiaoguo was dumbfounded, he didn't know anything, no wonder the person who took this task never returned.

At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind Lu Xiaoguo: "Let's go."

For some reason, Lu Xiaoguo felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, and her heart beat a lot faster. When she turned around suddenly, she saw a man in purple robe standing a foot away behind her.

The brocade is like a cloud, covered with complicated and intricate dark patterns, the body is tall and straight, and the ink hair is slowly flying in the morning wind, but it is a pity that the face is wearing a delicate silver mask.But even so, there was still a powerful deterrence, and the sleeves and robes were flying, and there was a noble splendor.

Lu Xiaoguo couldn't help complaining in his heart, why do all the men I see in this outer domain like to wear masks if they feel a bit temperamental? "Where are you going?"

Behind him is a wisteria parasitic on an ancient tree. The flowers are just in bloom at this moment, and the first ray of sunlight in the morning just passes through the shade of the bushes and falls on it, reflecting him in front of the flowers, like a beautiful picture.

Lu Xiaoguo looked at it for a while, his eyes burning.

The man's eyes sank, "The daughter of Yucheng really deserves her reputation!" After finishing speaking, the handsome figure flashed, and then moved past her and headed under the tree.But still couldn't help but look towards that petite figure.

It was very strange, ever since he arrived in Canglan, he felt that his lost half of his heart was approaching him all the time, and he kept wondering, who took away his half of his heart while he was sleeping?But when Mo Ya brought this woman to the tree house, he could clearly feel that this woman was half of his heart.

He could have killed her immediately, wiped away all her soul, and put back this half of her heart, but unexpectedly, he didn't do it for a long time, and he didn't even intend to do it.On the contrary, under her scorching gaze, her heart suddenly beat uncontrollably, as if something was about to spurt out of her heart in excitement.

Lu Xiaoguo didn't understand, but then she saw the clothes on her body. Although they had been improved a lot, the veil and the headgear were all in Yucheng's costumes, and thinking of the bold and hot characters of Yucheng women, she understood immediately He meant to come, but he didn't pursue it.

Instead, she couldn't help looking at his back excitedly, she couldn't be wrong, they have been in love for several years, and they have been husband and wife for so many years, how could she admit her mistake?And this body of hers was shaped by half of his heart, she could feel it.

Immediately, he stepped forward and grabbed his long sleeves quickly, stumbling him, two slender arms passed under his arms, hugged his narrow waist, and pressed his cheeks tightly against his wide back Back: "Master, why don't you recognize me? Didn't you go to Longbo country? Why didn't he come with you?"

She asked several questions in a row, her soft body pressed against him even more, and even called him a husband, which made him feel extremely absurd, so he immediately threw off her arms and distanced herself from her. Stained with a layer of anger: "Presumptuous! Has this king ever married a wife? Don't bother me!"

Lu Xiaoguo was dumbfounded immediately, her family husband would not talk to her in such a fierce tone, maybe she really misidentified the wrong person, the world is so big, there are all kinds of surprises, maybe there are two people who are exactly the same.

However, Lu Xiaoguo clearly knew that no matter how the two of them imagined, the feeling would not be the same.So she thought bloodily, could it be that Xianggong suffered some serious injury and lost his memory when he first arrived in Outland?She stood there, thinking seriously with her head down.

And the man in purple robe saw her lowering her brows and drooping her head, as if she couldn't see her so low, he couldn't help but feel a little irritable, and unexpectedly calmed down his voice for the first time: "Get out of here first."
