Chapter 459: Yulun Mountain
Everyone was startled.
His teammates already had considerable trust in his judgment, and Menban asked curiously: "Why?"
Hu Min quickly said: "Wait a minute, place your bet first and then listen to the explanation!"
He followed He Lingchuan and bet a tael of silver. A Luo thought about it and also bet on the "return to the west" side.
He took out the money from the door panel, looked this way, looked that way, and said hesitantly: "Then I, I will deposit it..."
He also wanted to return to the west, but as soon as he mouthed the word "西", he saw the wicker's thin eyebrows stood up and his eyes narrowed.
He immediately changed his mind: "I'll bet on the east side!"
"Where's Lao Yu?" Beast Controller Lao Yu was also in their team.
Lao Yu scratched his head: "I don't gamble."
Everyone said "cut" and it was boring.
Hu Min put the money away, and He Lingchuan coughed:
"Jinying in the east has been prepared. I heard that the quality of its soldiers is much better than that of Xiqian. It is also mountainous and has the right location and people. I'm afraid this battle will not be easy to fight."
Liu Tiao shook his head: "No matter how difficult the battle is, we can win it."
"Next, it's the unknown troops." He Lingchuan analyzed, "The Red General led us with overwhelming force. Isn't the reason why the capital seems to be calling us back? Now that the monarch has made it clear that we are not allowed to go back, then if we continue to advance eastward, we will be disobeying the emperor's order, and our morale will not be good. As high as ever.”
"To learn from the unknown, not only is it invincible, but it is also a way to endanger yourself." He sighed, "This is the third thing I want to say: Xizhi used to jump up and down against us all because of the instructions of the Baling Kingdom. Now Xizhi is being controlled by us If we defeat them, there is no guarantee that Baling will not move. If we fail to attack Jinying and Panlong City is invaded by Baling, we will be attacked on two fronts, which is very dangerous."
When the team members heard this, they felt very unwilling.
He Lingchuan still had something to say:
If Zhong Shengguang leads millions of people back to China, such a huge population will definitely have a huge impact on the current Silla.
So many people must have a place to stay, eat, sleep and do business, right?
It is enough to establish a state within a state.
Therefore, when Zhong Shengguang returned to China, he would at least declare a vassal territory. He has no territory in the country, so he can only steal it from others.
That was the beginning of a new round of turmoil. Isn't the West Luo Kingdom in chaos enough now? Do you dare to let Zhong Shengguang go back to add more trouble?
If he returns to Xiluo, it will not be a help in times of trouble, but will add insult to injury.
It’s strange that the monarch is willing to let them return to the country!

The next morning, Moon Mountain.
The straight-line distance between this place and Youtian Town is only twelve miles, but there are eighteen turns in the mountain road in between. It takes more than an hour to actually walk.
The magistrate of Baishi County sent a local villager to guide the way, nicknamed Zhao Dazui. He has been hunting in Yulun Mountain for the past twenty years and was even the discoverer of last year's incident.
Moon Mountain is composed of more than a dozen peaks. The further he walked into the mountain, the richer the spiritual energy he felt. Not only did he breathe extremely comfortably, but he could even activate the flow of real power in his body when he walked.
The efficiency of practicing here is higher than elsewhere. In today's world, this can already be called a paradise, right?
No wonder the pig demon refused to move.
Not to mention that the plants here are denser and taller than elsewhere, and even all kinds of exotic flowers and plants are everywhere here.
He Lingchuan even saw a shadow flashing past on the cliff, resembling a human being.
But it was a mature ginseng doll.
As he walked, He Lingchuan asked Zhao Dazui: "The entire nest of Haozhu has been taken away. What are the monsters occupying this land now?"
Zhao Dazui smiled and said: "Such a good land should of course be owned by the county."
He Lingchuan was greatly surprised: "Just confiscated it?"
"The ancestors of these pigs had merit and were able to obtain the Yulun Mountain as a fiefdom. Now that they have all been destroyed, and there are no heirs left, the Yulun Mountain has become an ownerless land, and it is logical to turn it into a county property." Zhao Dazui said, " The county has sealed off this land as a treasure house of wild herbs, and no monsters or villagers are allowed to collect it privately. "
Planted ones are not as good as wild ones, everyone knows this.
General Ling sighed: "It seems that these pigs only have the little merit accumulated by their ancestors. They have no connections or background in the countryside. No wonder no one cares about them even after they die."
Everyone was silent, it didn't sound nice, but it was the truth.
Because of General Ling's presence, the disappearance of the Wind-Drilling Beast was a major case, and the local government would not be able to pass the test without an explanation. More than a hundred pigs died in this litter in Zhitian Township, but the county only conducted a hasty autopsy and sealed the nest.
Relationships, backgrounds, backstage, it seems that these things are not only common in the human kingdom.
Along the way, He Lingchuan also saw the water source of Zhitian Township.
They are two long rivers like jade belts. They first pass through the territory of the Haozhu tribe, and then flow to the fertile soil of Zhitian Township. The water in the river is extremely clear and has been widened. The surface of the river is at least five feet above.
There is even a large lake with a vast area. He Lingchuan pointed to the dike and asked Zhao Dazui: "This was built last year?"
"Ah, yes, it was only completed this spring." Zhao Dazui told the truth, "The village has always wanted to build two lakes to store water, so that there is no shortage of water in winter. But the pigs strongly opposed it, saying that occupying their territory was too big There was too much logging. This matter has been in stalemate for several years, but it is finally resolved.”
"This is not about solving the problem." He Lingchuan said, it is about solving the person who asked the question...or the pig. "Two lakes? What about another one?"
"Seven or eight miles to the east, it is still being dug and has not been put into use." Zhao Dazui said, "I have passed by twice and there are people working there. It is said that the water storage will not be completed until next year."
Soon, Zhao Dazui led him to Haozhu Nest.
There have been no visitors here for a long time. The cracks in the ground are full of weeds, and even small trees three feet high have sprung up from the ground.
But it does not prevent He Lingchuan from seeing the landforms here clearly.
There were originally several cracks in the ground, or honeycomb-like caves, which were three-dimensional, with several layers above and below, as if they were eroded by running water or glaciers in the early days.
It is more than enough to accommodate more than a hundred pigs.
But now the honeycomb cave has been completely crushed by hundreds of large rocks, the largest of which is more than three feet high.
No matter what level of cultivation you have, you will have no way to survive if you are hit by this thing falling from the sky, right?
He Lingchuan looked up and saw the rock wall above was as sharp as a knife.
"Can snow accumulate on this kind of mountain wall in winter?" He remembered that the county recorded that this accident was attributed to an avalanche.
"It's either an avalanche or a rockfall, what's the difference?" Zhao Dazui was not as pedantic as him, "Anyway, if you get hit, you'll die."
"Why did you report it as an avalanche?"
"Uh..." Zhao Dazui scratched his head, "It seems that there were many avalanches last winter, and people were killed in two towns. The scene was similar to this, with snow and falling rocks."
This guy was just guessing.
He dared to guess, and the county dared to report it like this. He Lingchuan was both amused and confused.
He said to Jiao Yu: "Go in and take a look."
Zhao Dazui exclaimed: "Do you still want to go down?" His legs didn't want to move. How long has it been since this happened? "The entrance has been sealed."
He Lingchuan only showed half a piece of broken silver.
Zhao Dazui: "I'll lead the way!"
He led He Lingchuan and others into the nest hole on the side.
After the county found that the whole nest of hairy pigs was crushed to death, they did not dig them all out, but just sealed several entrances and exits of the nest, which was considered as burying them.
Although they cut corners, there was no problem.
Only living people care about being buried in peace.
He Lingchuan took out a sledgehammer and smashed the entrance open with a few bangs.
This shows that the tunnel eroded by the water originally led to many places. The widest place could accommodate two or three people side by side, and the narrowest place could not even fit a watermelon.
But the tunnel had been smashed by huge rocks and collapsed everywhere, and many of them became dead ends.
Zhao Dazui led them to crawl into a stone nest and pointed to the front and said: "It's here! They were piled here at the beginning, like a small hill."
In this place, people can't stand straight at all.
He Lingchuan could only move forward with a hunched back.
As for the wind drill beasts, they became the size of ordinary goats and could move forward and backward as freely as the tigers.
This stone nest is very spacious, but it seems cramped with hundreds of hairy pig monster corpses piled up. The tiger Jiao Yu took a look and said: "Wang Mazi is right, the posture of them stacked up is too weird."
These are hairy pigs! No matter how close their relationship is, it is impossible for them to hug each other like this.
This is not intimacy, this is mutual harm.
He Lingchuan asked Zhao Dazui: "Have many people been here?"
"Not many." Zhao Dazui covered his nose and tried to recall, "It's just me, the county's coroner, and a few diggers." Few people are willing to do this kind of dirty work.
Therefore, the scene is still well preserved.
Although the boulder cracked the ground, it was still too smelly here. Zhao Dazui retched a few times and couldn't help begging for mercy: "Sir, when can we go up?"
"Wait a little longer." Jiao Yu was checking the bones, and He Lingchuan was patrolling the area around the stone nest. There were scattered pig spines everywhere, each of which was black and white and sharp as a needle.
There were barbs and venom on the spines, and those who were stabbed would be in bad luck.
There were even a few spines that penetrated deep into the stone wall.
Even He Lingchuan had to work hard to pull them out, which shows how much force was used to pierce them.
He asked Jiao Yu: "How do the hairy pig monsters attack?"
"They?" Jiao Yu thought for a moment, "Retreat quickly, or simply shoot out poisonous stingers."
"How many can they shoot at a time?"
"Dozens." Jiao Yu said, "And at the same time."
"Awesome." He had thought about making a rainstorm pear blossom needle, but the hairy pigs were born with it.
"These guys won't shoot for fun in their own nests, right?" Not to mention shooting flowers and plants, it's not good to shoot companions.
Jiao Yu walked over to take a look and smelled: "Enemy appeared in the nest. The way these hairy pigs died was the same as the wind drill beast."
General Ling also said angrily: "After the murderer killed the hairy pigs, he threw them back to the underground nest, and didn't even bother to cover up the flaws. Those guys in Zhitian Township are useless and can't even understand this!"
He Lingchuan seemed to be thinking about something.
It was dark underground, but fortunately a few bunches of fluorescent grass illuminated the place in every detail.
He Lingchuan pointed at the rock wall covered with thorns and said, "Isn't this red blood?"
There were patches of red spots on the rock wall, but they didn't look like blood.
