Chapter 291 Leave in a Hurry
Zhu Minglang asked Xiaobai to explore in the black lake under the crack.
The Black Lake is very large, and it stores enough water to irrigate all the vegetation in the entire Lihuagou. At the same time, there are many precious stones deposited on the bottom of the lake.
Xiaobai looked around and did not see any Sanglong, not even Sanglong's saliva, hair, or footprints.
This kind of place is as clean as a secret realm, and no creature has ever set foot there.
He swept away all the gemstones at the bottom of the lake and put them into Bingchen Bailong's spell of heaven and earth. How could Xiaobai return to the ground and told Zhu Minglang the details of the black lake in the cave.
"Since the water source has been purified, it is considered a great achievement, let's go back to the first cottage." Zhu Minglang said.
"What about the mourning dragons who disappeared in Stone Village?" Hu Bailing asked.
"If they want to hide, they will destroy all the caves in Lihuagou, and it may not be possible to find their hiding places. That's all we can do," Zhu Minglang said.
"Yes." Hu Bailing nodded.
Sanglong is a group of extremely tenacious creatures. From the beginning to the end, there is no saying that they are truly extinct. Just like weeds, they will spread all over again after the next spring rain!
It is already very good to be able to help Lihuagou resolve the water crisis. As for where the mourning dragons in Shitou village have fled, I am afraid that there will be no results.
...
After leaving the ridge, the group returned to the first village of Lihuagou before it was dark.
After solving the problem of water source, Lihuagou should be able to restore its original vitality. As for those mourning dragons who suddenly disappeared, they may have found new caves and started to recuperate.
The scary thing about Sanglong is that they have high enough intelligence. When they know that they have lost the chance to hunt and their own group is threatened, they will immediately hide and stay silent for a while, waiting for the opportunity to come back.
However, without the fruit of enlightenment, the threat of those mourning dragons to Lihuagou will be greatly reduced.
On the way back, Zhu Minglang remained silent.
Li Xinghua also fell into deep thought.
The ghost girl also remained silent.
...
It was near nightfall that they returned to the first village of Lihuagou.
The wrinkled old patriarch smiled all over his face,
He personally welcomed the return of several brave knights, and put out a lot of food and wine.
Zhu Minglang didn't have much appetite, especially when he thought of the secrets hidden in the Lihuagou, he felt that the village was full of weirdness.
He just wants to get out of here right now.
Hu Bailing didn't know about all this. She accepted the warm hospitality of the villagers, and mentioned her childhood friend to the old patriarch, wanting to know her current situation.
"She had a serious illness the year before last. She was sent outside for treatment, but she never came back. We don't know whether she recovered from her illness and didn't plan to return to Lihuagou, or she died of illness outside." The patriarch let out a long sigh.
Hu Bailing was stunned. She didn't know that this happened. Although she herself hadn't stepped into the Lihuagou for many years, and she didn't have much contact with that childhood friend, but when she heard the news of her misfortune, It's going to be sad in the end.
"Natural disasters, birth, old age, sickness and death are all normal." Song Xunshan, head of the fold clan, said.
"It's indeed the norm, but your Lihuagou has the secret of longevity for the clansmen to avoid these things, doesn't it?" Zhu Minglang smiled and said to the wrinkled old patriarch.
The old patriarch was holding a wine bowl, his hands were hanging in the air, and his deep eyes were watching Zhu Minglang.
"You stipulate that the clansmen cannot leave the Lihuagou. In fact, you want to live quietly in a place where there is no conflict, war, and intrigue. Isn't this the way for you to avoid man-made disasters?" Zhu Minglang continued without finishing his sentence. Spit it out.
After the patriarch Song Xunshan listened, he drank the wine in front of him again and laughed loudly.
"We have other things to deal with, so we won't spend the night in the village. We will leave Lihuagou in a while, and the fight against Sanglong will still be up to you," Zhu Minglang said.
"Although we still hope that you can eliminate more mourning dragons for us, we also know that mourning dragons are cunning. Once they hide, it would be a waste of time to keep you here. Thank you Runyucheng for everything you have done for our Lihuagou , We have also prepared some gems, please take them with you." Song Xunshan said.
Zhu Minglang didn't refuse. Although he had already obtained a large cart of gems, who would want too many gems?
...
As the night was getting dark, Zhu Minglang and his party left Lihuagou.
The mountain road is complicated, and it will take some time to get out of this special flower ditch.
There are still no insects and birds in this mountain forest, let alone some wandering beasts. The ravine shrouded in night is too quiet.
After walking for about ten or twenty miles, Nan Yusuo, who felt the strange atmosphere, finally spoke up. She questioned Zhu Minglang, "It's obviously not completely resolved, why did you leave like this, don't you worry about those mourning dragons coming back?"
Similarly, Nan Yusuo didn't understand why her sister would let those mourning dragons continue to hide in Lihuagou. You must know that those mourning dragons were the ones who slaughtered an entire village. If such a shocking thing happened in other villages , as a prophet, Li Xinghua, isn't he afraid of being haunted by nightmares?
"I don't want to stay in this damn place any longer." Zhu Minglang snorted coldly, recalling some details of entering Lihuagou, it was even more creepy.
"What happened?" Hu Bailing asked in confusion.
"Actually, I've always wanted to say it, but it's hard to mention it. Don't you think the people in the village are weird? There are only a few who talk to us from the beginning to the end, and they don't show us around other places in the village. , and then we said we wanted to leave, I wish we could leave quickly..." Fang Niannian said in a low voice.
"Nian Nian, what do you think?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"I can't say it, but the whole village is very strange... Although every house is lit, it lacks a kind of popularity. How to put it, I didn't see children playing near the house, and I didn't see anyone shouting for business, let alone The women are chatting while doing housework, let alone the crowing and barking of dogs." Fang Niannian's intuition is quite keen.
She herself lives in the marketplace.
She is very familiar with the atmosphere of the market.
Even if it is a village isolated from the world, as long as there are people living, they cannot live without cooking smoke, crying, and noise.
The last time they came to the first village, they barely stayed there and left in a hurry.
This time they returned to the first village and had a hurried meal, but the old patriarch only took them to a limited number of houses from the beginning to the end.
