The Qilin chooses its master, the good-for-nothing daughter brings the beast to shock the three real

Chapter 398 Monster

The young boy was short, and looked about twelve or thirteen years old, his eyes constantly looking around.

"What's your name? Why did you ask me to leave the city?"

Long Li squatted down and asked in a low voice.

"Sister, my name is Zhang Bao, and there are man-eating monsters here."

The boy whispered, a look of fear in his eyes.

Long Li frowned, man-eating monster, what does this young man mean?

Could it be a beast?

"What kind of monster? Have you seen the city lord here?"

Long Li moved closer and instantly took the boy and Jiao Wushang away from there.

The old beggar only felt a gust of wind blowing, and the three figures disappeared.

He was so frightened that his eyes were filled with terror. He covered his mouth and dared not scream, and fled away crawling.

Long Li took Zhang Bao to a deserted place, which was an abandoned house that looked like it had been deserted for many years.

Zhang Bao was so scared that he almost screamed. He looked at Long Li and the others with horror.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. Just answer the truth about what kind of man-eating monster you are."

Long Li spoke softly and soothingly.

Zhang Bao looked at the two people in front of him and they didn't look like bad people. He nodded slightly and did not forget to look around.

"Sister, that monster has red eyes, a long tail, and a big head. It eats people every day.

Many of our practitioners were eaten in the mountain stream behind us.

As for the city lord, I have never seen him, but he can suppress the monster.

He built the City Lord's Mansion on the mountain next to the monster, and held a blessing ceremony every year, offering the blood of practitioners to suppress the monster."

The blood suppression of practitioners is simply nonsense.

It's obviously a scam at first glance. It's possible that this so-called monster is raised by the city lord.

But what does he need so much blood for?

Zhang Bao's eyes instantly became moist, "My father and sister were eaten by that monster, and now I am the only one left."

"Didn't they say they would suppress it? Why would they come out to eat people again?"

"The city lord said that the cultivators' blood is too little to suppress the monster all the time. Only more blood can do it.

But people in our city are dying, and some are dying from weakness caused by excessive bleeding. Now there is no one to supply blood."

Zhang Bao's eyes were filled with sadness. After losing his loved ones, he could only beg here for a living, and he didn't know how long he could live.

People in this city live in fear every day, fearing that the monster will come out and eat people.

"Is this city lord a native or from outside?"

Long Li asked.

"I heard from my elders that the city lord was a native of Floating Light City. He later went to another place, but I don't know why he suddenly came back."

"When did the monster appear? After he came back or before he came back?"

"Not long after I came back, a monster suddenly appeared and ate the former city lord. It also slaughtered people in the city. The city lord descended from the sky and suppressed it and drove it under the mountain stream."

After all, Zhang Bao was a beggar, and he would tell some old beggars about things that happened in the past, and he even heard some of the news from hearsay.

Maybe the city lord is the owner of that monster, and this blood probably belongs to the city lord for other purposes.

What needs so much blood? And it must be done by a cultivator?

It's really too weird, no wonder a drop of blood is required to enter the city.

"Zhang Bao, have you heard of the route to the sea?"

"I've heard of this once. It seems that the sea is at the southernmost side of Floating Light City. You need to pass through the Misty Swamp and the Cursed Land to reach it. I don't know if this is true or not."

The Misty Swamp sounds okay, but this cursed land is quite scary. Long Li's face wrinkled.

Jiao Wushang didn't expect that going to the sea would be so difficult. No wonder the people of the sea clan never go to the land. It turns out that it takes such a long distance and is even full of dangers.

However, this cursed land doesn’t sound like a good place.

Zhang Bao was a smart man. He knew that the two people in front of him were from other places. The fact that they had just arrived here in an instant meant that they were cultivators.

Perhaps, these two people are the opportunity for him to change his destiny.

"Sister wants to go to the sea. I can take her to find an older herbalist in the city. He is knowledgeable and must know more details."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Abao." Long Li took out a set of clothes and handed it over. "Put this on. I'll give you these ten thousand spirit stones. Since you're weak, drink this bottle of medicine."

Seeing so many spirit stones, Zhang Bao's eyes were full of surprise. He had never seen so many spirit stones before.

"Thank you sister."

He reached out to take it, opened the small porcelain bottle and drank it. Zhang Bao didn't know what it was, but he just felt it was sweet after drinking it.

In fact, this is spiritual liquid, which is much more valuable than spiritual stones.

Zhang Bao has been hungry for many years and is very weak. If this continues, he will die in a few years.

Meeting is fate, and he also helped Long Li. It is not easy to be alone and helpless in this world.

Long Li gave him spiritual liquid to change his physique. There would be no problem for him to live to old age. His physique would also be much stronger than that of ordinary people. It would be a perfect life if he could live a stable life.

After Zhang Bao changed his clothes, he felt much cleaner. He took Long Li and the other person out of the yard, turned left and right and came to a small alley where there was a dilapidated courtyard.

"Squeak!"

Zhang Bao pushed the door open and walked in with Long Li. There were many herbs drying in the yard. Not far ahead, on a recliner, a gray-haired man in his sixties was basking in the sun.

The old man heard someone coming in, opened his eyes and looked, "Are you here to see a doctor or buy medicinal herbs?"

Zhang Bao changed his clothes, and the old man couldn't tell that he was the beggar Zhang Bao at all.

"Mr. Liu, it's me, Zhang Bao." At this moment, Zhang Bao came closer and said, "These two nobles have something to ask Mr. Liu."

"Where did you get all these clothes, kid? I really didn't realize it was you." The old man looked at Long Li and Jiao Wushang while speaking, "You are from other places, I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you two?"

Mr. Liu did not stand up, and he must be a knowledgeable old man.

He could see at a glance the extraordinary qualities of Long Li and Jiao Wushang, so he tried to lower his tone as much as possible.

"We want to go to the sea, I wonder if Mr. Liu can tell us the route."

Long Li's attitude was also very respectful.

"You actually want to go to the sea. You will die if you don't go there."

Mr. Liu looked a little excited at this moment, and his voice was twice as loud.

"We have reasons why we must go. I hope Mr. Liu can tell us."

When Mr. Liu saw that Long Li was so serious, he sighed slightly.

"The sea is far from here. We need to pass through the misty swamp. I heard that there are many poisonous beasts lurking there. Almost no one has passed through there.

Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you still need to walk through the cursed land. It is rumored that it is a battlefield in ancient times, a curse cast by an ancient emperor before his death. This place is very desolate, and any life that enters will be devoured. "

Upon hearing this, Long Li and Jiao Wushang both had some doubts.

If this is really such a powerful place, then why didn’t the old man who brought Jiao Wushang out die?

These may all be rumors. It may be an illusion if it is so scary.
