a month later.

On the endless swamp, there are pools of muddy sewage everywhere, white skeletons can be seen everywhere in the water, it seems that there are people and beasts, and there is an unpleasant smell in the air.

In addition to the sewage, a large part of the seemingly continuous green is swamp plants such as moss.

If you think that these greens are the ground, if you walk on them accidentally, you will fall into a death trap, be swallowed by the swamp, and eventually become a skeleton.

At this time, under the gray sky, a cloud of white clouds flew slowly from a distance.

A black figure stood on the air cloud.

It was Shi Mu.

The gas cloud soon began to dissipate, and Shi Mu's figure also began to slowly descend.

In a blink of an eye, Shi Mu landed on a swamp with shrubs.

Where there are shrubs, the soil is generally hard.

Shi Mu looked around for a while, then retracted his gaze.

According to the map, this place is already in the ancient country of Xixia.

But for some reason, this area always has a lifeless and depressing feeling, which makes it quite uncomfortable.

He has been in this swamp for five or six days, but the sky here has always been gray.

And when he was in the air, he always felt that there was a lingering cloud around him.

The trouble is, in such an environment, Cai'er can't see too many things clearly in the air.

The swamp is very similar everywhere, so he hasn't been able to get out of it until now.

"Shitou, let me go to the west to have a look, there seems to be a village over there." Cai'er's voice sounded in his mind.

"Okay, be careful, I always feel a bit weird here." Shi Mu responded with his heart.

"Don't worry!" said the parrot.

In the distance in the sky, a small black shadow rose higher and higher, and soon disappeared in the gray clouds.

An hour later, under Cai Er's guidance, Shi Mu finally found a seemingly small village.

There is only one main street running from east to west in the whole village, and there are mostly thatched houses on both sides.

Shi Mu stood outside the village, frowning slightly.

The village is too quiet, there is no sound at all.

He looked at the sky again. At this time, it should be around noon, but there is not a single house in the village lit up with cooking smoke.

He couldn't help feeling a little more alert, and then walked slowly towards the village.

He was taken aback by the sight inside, it was a big village. lifeless.

Counting from the entrance of the village, he had walked more than a hundred zhang before he found the bodies of three villagers, two men and one woman.

He stepped forward to check it out. These corpses looked like they had been dead for three or four days. The wound was black, and there seemed to be gray yin lingering around it.

Shi Mu suddenly turned around and walked out of the village.

At this moment, two gray claw shadows suddenly shot out from a nearby thatched hut.

At the same time, there was a rustling sound of movement everywhere in the village.

Shi Mu pointed with his right hand, and a golden light rushed out of his body, instantly turning into a huge golden sword the size of a door panel.

Golden flames billowed from the sword, and in a flash, it greeted the two gray shadows.

"Chi!" There was a soft sound.

The golden flame burned lightly, and the two gray claw shadows were melted into nothingness.

The money sword remains unabated. In an instant, it reached the sky above the thatched cottage, and then struck down with a sword like thunder and lightning.

A scorching air wave came first.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise.

The thatched hut collapsed under the sparks, and a zombie with white hair appeared.

Its two claws danced dozens of gray claw shadows, and greeted the golden giant sword.

As soon as the two touched, the claw shadow immediately collapsed, and the golden giant sword immediately cut it in half.

The wound was scorched by the golden flame, and immediately green smoke rose.

When Shi Mu saw this, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

After these days of cultivation, the money sword has begun to take on spirituality, and this is the first time it has been used to defend against enemies. After a small test, the effect is really good.

At this time, from a thatched cottage next door, two more skeletons with bone knives rushed out, directly killing Shi Mu.

Shi Mu waved his hand casually. Two red fireballs shot out quickly, and flew towards the two knife-wielding skeletons respectively.

The two skeletons kept walking, and with a wave of the bone knife in their hands, they were about to chop at the fireball.

Just as they were about to hit them, the fireball suddenly drew a graceful arc in the air, and hit their backs in a flash.

"Boom! Boom!" Two explosions sounded.

The two knife-wielding skeletons were immediately blasted into pieces.

at this time. A large number of skeleton zombies poured out of the village, roughly two or three hundred.

Shi Mu frowned, his lips moved slightly, and a large cloud of white air suddenly gushed out around him.

At this moment, in a thatched hut behind him, there were two more skeletons with bone guns, one left and one right rushed towards Shi Mu.

At this time, the money sword also flew back, and as soon as it turned its direction, it slashed at the gun-wielding skeleton on the right.

Shi Mu opened his mouth, and a thick white air shot towards the other skeleton, and at the same time his body rose from the ground.

boom! boom! two loud bangs,

The two skeletons were torn apart in the golden and white rays of light.

In mid-air, Shi Mu stood on the white cloud, the money sword circled around, and instantly flew into the distance.

...

After a few days.

The sky is still gray, and the sun here doesn't feel much warmth when it shines on people.

Shi Mu stood on a small slope, and in front of it was a small town with about a thousand people.

There is a small river about two feet wide in the east of the town, and there are large tracts of fertile fields along the river. At this time, the grains in the fields are drooping heavily, and it seems that it is almost time to harvest.

From here, two or three hundred wooden or brick ordinary houses spread out along the cross-shaped road in the center of the town. There is a two-story attic in the center of the town, and some people can be heard faintly inside. Human voices, and smoke rising from many places.

In addition, the whole town seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gray light, and it seemed that the power of the breath was not strong.

This is a simple guardian formation.

Just as Shi Mu looked it over and confirmed that there was nothing wrong, and was about to go in to have a look, there was a commotion at the entrance of the village.

Soon, seven or eight people dressed in ordinary people's clothes followed a flat carriage and stopped at the exit.

The crowd gathered around, and the noise gradually became louder.

After a while, the crowd dispersed, the mask fluctuated, and the carriage slowly left the town. There were four people in the car.

Shi Mu thought about it for a while, it should be someone who died in the town, and now he is going to be dragged out of the town.

When the carriage passed by Shi Mu, he glanced at the flatbed cart. Two dilapidated corpses were placed on the cart.

It seems to have been bitten by some wild beast, but there is still some black and yin energy left in the wound.

Shi Mu couldn't help but think of the village he went to a few days ago, and sighed in his heart. It seems that this small town is not a peaceful place.

As soon as Shi Mu moved, he was ready to walk towards the town.

This was the first populated village he encountered in the ancient Xixia country. He decided to go in and find out the news.

He had just walked a few steps when his heart moved and he felt something was wrong.

"Boom!" There was a loud bang.

The ground on the left side behind him suddenly exploded, and the gravel splashed in all directions. A white-haired zombie jumped out and rushed towards the carriage.

On the flatbed carriage, a thin young man beside the driver had a black wooden stick in his hand instantly.

With a light wave, a streak of gray air shot out from the stick, changing in mid-air. It turned into a bone-white shield, blocking the white-haired zombie.

"Boom!" There was a muffled sound.

The white-haired zombie fell to the ground after hitting a thick wall.

At this time, the carriage had stopped, and the other three held their swords, rolled up three balls of cold light and besieged the white-haired zombie.

The white-haired zombie has a solid body and immense strength, and the three besieging people dare not touch it head-on.

And the thin young man danced his staff on the carriage, emitting streaks of gray light continuously, as long as he touched the white-haired zombie. Its movements will become extremely slow.

The other three took the opportunity to attack close to the body. The white-haired zombie was soon covered with scars, and was finally beheaded by a tall young man with a knife. The soul fire in his eyes quickly dissipated without a trace.

Just when the three of them packed up their weapons. When he was about to return to the carriage, there were three more noises on the ground.

Three white-haired zombies sprang out from the ground respectively, and rushed towards the three of them at an extremely fast speed.

The three of them advanced or retreated, each fighting a white-haired zombie.

Although the emaciated youth continued to emit gray light, slowing down the speed of the white-haired zombie. But the three of them quickly fell into a disadvantage.

At this moment, a red light flashed, and three red fireballs flew towards the three white-haired zombies.

As soon as the three white-haired zombies moved, a shadow of claws danced out of their claws, sealing the direction of the fireball.

At this moment, the three red fireballs made a sharp turn in the air as if they were under human control, and bombarded the head of the white-haired zombie from the side in the blink of an eye.

"Boom" three explosions in a row.

The heads of the three white-haired zombies were immediately burned to ashes, and their bodies froze for a while before finally collapsing.

Seeing this, the thin young man felt relieved, and quickly led the other three people towards Shi Mu.

When the four of them fought against the zombies just now, Shi Mu could see their strength. Except for the thin young man who was an apprentice warlock, the other three were just ordinary warriors.

After the four of them thanked Shi Mu for a while, they immediately returned to the carriage, not to go outside the town.

Shi Mu turned around and looked towards the entrance of the village, only to find a young man in his twenties with a horse face approaching Shi Mu with a happy face.

"In Xia Tiansong, your Excellency must be the Lord Mingyue Jiao who was invited by the mayor. Please come with me, my lord." The horse-faced youth saluted respectfully.

Shi Mu was slightly taken aback, but before he could speak, the horse-faced youth turned around and led the way in front.

Shi Mu glanced at the back of the horse-faced young man, put away the aura that belonged to the innate warrior, and then followed him silently, walking towards the village.

The two soon came to the center of the town. In front of the two-story attic, Tian Song stepped forward and knocked on the door...

After a while, Shi Mu was already sitting in a living room, and there was a cup of freshly brewed tea on the table in front of him.

After a while, an old man with a dark face came in from the side door of the living room.

"This old man is Wang Ying, the mayor of Baifeng Town. He has met Senior Mu. Speaking of which, it is the first time that he has seen such an expert as Senior Mu in a remote village like ours." The swarthy old man said with a smile on his face.

He didn't take the main seat either, and sat directly opposite Shi Mu. (To be continued.)
