Chapter 22: A Warrior in the Qiwu Realm!

The carriage meandered along the mountain road.

After about an hour or two, an ancient town appeared in Luo Zhen's sight.

Listening to the conversation of the drivers, the town that appeared in front of him was Huangye Town.

"We arrived so soon?" Luo Zhen was a little surprised.

Because the carriage was not moving fast, it could even be said to be very slow, which meant that the Misty Swamp was not too far from Huangye Town.

"No wonder the warriors in Huangye Town regularly went to the Misty Swamp to hunt monsters. Think about it, the distance between the two is so close. Once a powerful monster appears in the Misty Swamp, the first to be impacted is Huangye Town."

Luo Zhen thought while quietly jumping off the carriage.

Surrounded by lush green bushes and forests, he could hide his body by just finding a place to hide.

After hiding, Luo Zhen opened the system map.

At this time, the system map had been expanded and updated in real time, and the entire Huangye Town was clearly revealed.

Dozens of light spots of different sizes appeared on the map, but they were all white and did not emit red light.

"One light spot represents a demon beast or a warrior. There are dozens of light spots on the map of Huangye Town, which means that there are dozens of human warriors in this town."

Luo Zhen analyzed while looking at the map, "But these light spots are all white, and none of them emit red light, which means that there are no warriors in Huangye Town who can threaten me!"

"It seems that the previous guess was right. Although Zhou Hong, who escaped, is a ninth-level warrior, he is no longer my opponent because of his serious injuries and his strength has plummeted!"

Thinking of this, Luo Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

He came to Huangye Town to take refuge, and it would be the best situation if he could survive smoothly.

After spitting out his snake tongue, Luo Zhen found a pile of rocks and then drilled in along the cracks in the rocks.

He wanted to have a good sleep!

He had been nervous in the misty swamp for several days before, and his spirit had been in a tense state. It was so uncomfortable!

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the cycle repeats.

Luo Zhen slept until he woke up naturally, and then he crawled out of the cracks in the stone with his tongue spitting out.

As for how long he slept, he didn't know.

After waking up, Luo Zhen clearly felt hungry in his stomach.

"I'm so hungry." A strong feeling of weakness spread throughout his body at some point, and Luo Zhen suddenly realized that if he didn't eat, he would probably faint from hunger in a short time.

"The place with the most living things nearby is Huangye Town. Damn it, I even smell the smell of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep raised by people!"

Luo Zhen climbed to the top of a century-old tree, and then looked up at Huangye Town in the distance.

It was dusk now, and under the setting sun, hundreds of white smoke rose in Huangye Town, and a mouth-watering fragrance drifted with the wind.

"Human food is still fragrant," Luo Zhen sniffed the rich food fragrance in the air, his expression slightly intoxicated.

He hadn't eaten human delicacies for a long, long time.

But speaking of it, although he is a snake, he is different from ordinary snakes.

When ordinary snakes eat, they swallow the whole thing and then slowly break it down and digest it. But Luo Zhen is different. Luo Zhen found at the beginning that he could eat in small bites, just like humans.

If he had hands, Luo Zhen could even use chopsticks!

"I can eat in small bites, which should have nothing to do with my body," Luo Zhen thought to himself, "My body is the same as that of ordinary snakes, but ordinary snakes only have animal nature and the instinct to eat, while I have intelligence and humanity!"

"So, I can completely control my body and change my eating habits!"

While thinking, Luo Zhen glanced at the Huangye Town where the smoke was curling, and then slid down from the tree.

He was waiting.

When it was completely dark and the human vision was blocked, he would enter the town to find food.

And this is also the biggest difference between him and ordinary snakes.

If it were an ordinary snake, it would have rushed into the town long ago when it was hungry, and it wouldn't care about so many things. But Luo Zhen had human thinking and intelligence, and could know how to be patient.

Time passed little by little, and soon, the sunset completely fell.

The dark night was like ink, covering the whole world.

Luo Zhen looked up and saw that the night sky was full of dark clouds, and the moon and stars disappeared. Although there was no trend of rain at night, there were gusts of wind and coldness.

"It's a night of murder on a dark and windy night," Luo Zhen licked his snake tongue, and then rushed to Huangye Town.

Luo Zhen was not big in size, and his speed was amazing, so he quickly arrived at Huangye Town without attracting anyone's attention.

Because it was dark, the main road in Huangye Town was empty at this time, and every household closed their doors and rested.

The people in this world obviously don't have a rich nightlife, at least not in Huangye Town. At this time, most of the houses in Huangye Town are dark, and they have obviously turned off the lights and gone to bed.

However, there are still a few houses emitting dim lights. The largest one is located in the center of the town, and the courtyard of this house covers a large area. It is obvious that it is a wealthy and powerful family.

Looking around, I saw a plaque hanging on the gate of this house, with two large golden characters printed on it,

Zhou Mansion!

"Zhou Mansion?" Luo Zhen tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Could it be the Zhou Mansion of ninth-level warrior Zhou Hong?"

"No matter which world or race you are in, powerful beings will have a lot of wealth and resources, especially humans!"

"Zhou Hong and his dead brother are both ninth-level warriors. Their strength is arrogant in the entire Huangye Town, so they naturally deserve to occupy such a large house."

Luo Zhen arched his snake body, looked at the Zhou Mansion with dim yellow lights, and suddenly sniffed his nose.

"The scent of the medicine is indeed getting stronger and stronger!" Luo Zhen sighed.

In fact, not long after entering Huangye Town, he smelled a faint medicinal scent, and as he approached Zhou Mansion, the medicinal scent became stronger and stronger.

"It seems that there are precious medicinal materials in Zhou Mansion this week!" Luo Zhen's narrow snake eyes shimmered.

He has a system in place. Not only can he level up by hunting and devouring monsters, he can also gain experience points by devouring medicinal materials!

"This Zhou Mansion is most likely the home of the ninth-level warrior Zhou Hong, but even so, I'm not afraid!"

"Zhou Hong has been seriously injured and is no longer afraid of threats. I am bound to get the medicinal materials in this mansion!"

Luo Zhen vomited the snake letter, and then entered the Zhou family compound along the wall.

Not long after entering the compound, Luo Zhen suddenly heard human conversation in a house in the distance. He could also vaguely hear words such as 'swamp snake', 'medicine', 'master' and other words.

"Are you talking about the misty swamp?" Luo Zhen was slightly surprised.

After thinking for a while, Luo Zhen swam the snake's body and leaned closer carefully.

For Luo Zhen, the information about the Misty Swamp is still very important.

After approaching the house, Luo Zhen discovered through the crack in the door that there were two humans inside. One was an old man with gray hair who resembled a housekeeper, and the other was Zhou Hong, whom he had met once before.

At this time, Zhou Hong looked pale and looked depressed. He was half lying on the bed, looking weak.

"Uncle Liu, have you collected all the medicinal materials I asked you to collect?" In the room, Zhou Hong coughed first and then asked.

The white-haired old man who looked like a butler next to him said quickly, "We have collected them all. There are five medicinal herbs in total, and they are all over three hundred years old."

"That's good, that's good, cough, cough," Zhou Hong coughed a few more times, and then said again, "Be sure to take good care of these medicinal materials! Our Huangye Town has poor land and little wealth. It is very important to be able to collect these medicinal materials. It’s not easy! Be careful and don’t let anyone steal it!”

"Don't worry, Second Young Master! I will go and see it in person several times every day. I'll go over and have a look later!" After the white-haired old man finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Second Young Master, do you really plan to use these medicinal materials to treat the disease?" A master outside?"

"Yes, otherwise what else can we do?"

Zhou Hong laughed miserably and said with a pale face, "The demon python in the misty swamp is so powerful! My eldest brother has died inside, and I have also been seriously injured. We Huangye Town alone cannot deal with it. We can only attack it from the outside." Find a master."

Speaking of this, Zhou Hong's face suddenly darkened.

His eldest brother Zhou Hong and the other masters in the town were all dead. Even he himself was seriously injured and his strength plummeted.

Gritting his teeth, Zhou Hong continued, "What is certain now is that the python in the swamp has reached the level of a tenth-level monster. Although its strength is terrifying, it is still acceptable."

"If we leave it alone, when the demonic python breaks through again, it is very likely that it will trigger a wave of small beasts or the demonic python will directly come out to hurt people. At that time, our Huangye Town will be completely finished."

"Maybe we can move away and rebuild the town somewhere else," the white-haired old man said cautiously.

"You think too simply," Zhou Hong shook his head and said, "It's easy to move away, but the question is, how will we live in the future? Where did we get the land and wealth? What will happen to the foundation we have worked for so many years in Huangye Town? ?”

"Compared with these problems, getting rid of the demon python in the swamp seems very simple!"

"Yes, Second Young Master, you are right!" The white-haired old man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then said, "Second Young Master, if all the medicinal materials we collected are handed over, what will happen to your injury?"

"It's okay. I have the healing golden sore medicine in my hand. As long as you give me half a year, I can slowly recover." Zhou Hong said calmly.

"Oh, I see, I have one last question," the white-haired old man thought for a while and asked, "You and the eldest young master are both ninth-level warriors, and you are heading to the Misty Swamp with so many experts in the town. , as a result, the eldest young master and other warriors were killed in the battle, and you were also seriously injured."

"Tell me the important point!" Zhou Hong glanced at the white-haired old man.

"The key point is, the demon python in the misty swamp is so powerful, can the master we want to hire be able to defeat it?"

Zhou Hong smiled.

"Don't worry, I know it well," Zhou Hong said calmly, "There are very few medicinal materials with medicinal properties of more than three hundred years. What's more, I took out five of them at once. Such rare medicinal materials are enough to hire a powerful expert. "

"Then how strong is this master? What level is he at?" the old man asked curiously.

"How strong is it?" Zhou Hong smiled and said,

"Qi Martial Realm!"
