Little White was a little unhappy. This scheming bird actually stole its credit.
"The number of demonic beasts has actually increased.”Ye Ning muttered to himself," That's true. The concentration of spiritual energy here is almost twice that of Suiyang City, so the chances of demonic beasts appearing are naturally higher.”
Like human cultivators, demonic beasts also liked places with rich spiritual energy.
The Ye family had fallen. The reason Father Ye had brought his predecessor to live in seclusion in Suiyang was because the spiritual energy there was scarce and there were basically no immortal cultivators.
Before, Ye Ning still did not understand the situation in Suiyang City, but now he basically understood.
They had only walked for more than 10,000 miles to the northeast, but the density of the spiritual energy had already doubled. If they walked for a while more, how much denser would the spiritual energy be?
It was no wonder that there were not many legends of immortal cultivation in places like Suiyang City. Only martial artists fought for supremacy.
After all, no matter how lowly an immortal cultivator was, they would not compete with martial artists. Not only would it not be impressive, but it would also be embarrassing.
"Since there are demonic beasts, let's try our luck here tonight.”Ye Ning's eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at Taiyi and Little White.
Taiyi and Little White's fighting spirit boiled because of the instinct of a demon beast to fight, but Ye Ning was not.
The appearance of demon beasts meant that there might be spells that could be extracted.
Ye Ning didn't mind having too many life-bound spells that could be instantly cast.
Little White and Taiyi were very happy when they heard that. They called out and returned to their respective positions under Ye Ning's instructions.
The village wasn't big, with only twenty families. It was surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a continuous mountain range at its back. Not far from the houses was a three-meter-wide river.
Most of the houses in the village were thatched huts. Only two houses had earthen walls and green tiles. They looked like rich people in the village.
It was evening, and the sky was dusky.
Ye Ning stepped into the village and found that the village was quiet. The doors of every household were tightly shut, and there was no candlelight.
"Is it because the people here rest early, or is it because of the demon beasts?”Ye Ning guessed in his heart. Suddenly, he felt a gaze fall on him. He turned around and saw that the gaze had disappeared.
Ye Ning smiled and walked over.
The owner of the line of sight came from a wealthy family.
"Erniu, you're the one who's so troublesome.”A middle-aged man muttered in a low voice.
He was dressed in coarse clothes and had a burly figure. His skin was dark and his wrinkles were deep. At a glance, he looked like an old farmer.
He saw Ye Ning slowly approaching. At this moment, he was reprimanding a seven or eight-year-old child.
The child looked similar to him. He had a strong body and a rough appearance.
" I didn't know he would know," the child said indignantly." I just took a look." Besides, he might not be a bad person!”
"That's right, Da Niu, don't scare Er Niu!”Beside him, a woman with a deformed body and a similarly thick build said as she pulled Er Niu to her side. Her eyes were filled with love.
Da Niu was speechless." You ah, a loving mother spoils her son. If you protect him like this, be careful that he will ruin the family business that the old bull's family has built for several generations."”
The woman was not happy." Hmph, you're so capable. How can I be defeated?"”
Footsteps approached.
The woman was a little scared." Daniu, could it be a bad person?" she asked. Do you think the immortal masters in the city will come? The Qing Wa in the village had been gone for two days. Logically speaking, they should have already arrived in the city!”
"Who knows?" Da Niu shook his head and his expression became serious. He flipped open the pillow and a long object suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.
"Don't worry. With me around, I can definitely protect you and your mother.”Da Niu picked up the long object. It was actually a black machete.
The back of the machete was thick and dark, and only the blade was polished.
"Chief, be careful." The woman's eyes were gentle as she whispered.
Da Niu nodded and gripped the hilt of his saber tightly.
Knock knock knock
There was a knock on the door, and the hearts of the three people in the room rose.
Er Niu was so scared that he almost cried and threw himself into the woman's arms.
The woman's hands trembled as she gently patted Er Niu's back to comfort him.
Da Niu walked towards the door with a serious expression.
Of course, he could choose not to open the door.
However, if there were really bad people or demons outside, how could the wooden door at home block them?
"Who is it?" Da Niu asked in a deep voice.
"Passers-by, stay for the night and leave tomorrow.”A loud voice came from outside.
"Big Brother, don't worry. I'll pay for your food and accommodation. I won't give you any trouble.”
Hearing this, Da Niu couldn't make up his mind and looked at his wife.
"I don't think the person outside is a bad person. How about it?" Madam whispered.”
Da Niu was speechless.
To be honest, Da Niu was just like his wife. Even in Wuyang City, he had never seen such a graceful young master.
It was really unreasonable for such a person to rob a farmer.
"What if it's a monster?" Da Niu asked in a low voice," I heard that there was a demon in Ancient Yang three hundred miles away. It liked to transform into beautiful women and trick the young people in the city.”
"There's such a monster?" Er Niu asked softly.”
Da Niu glared at him. If those young people don't return, they might have already been eaten by the demons. Don't have any bad thoughts when you meet demons in the future. You're the only descendant of the Niu family for three generations.”
When Er Niu heard this, he was immediately unhappy."Father, I'm just curious.”
The woman rolled her eyes at Da Niu." You too. Er Niu is still a child. What does he know?" Alright, since you're here, let the head of the family make the decision!”
Da Niu nodded and opened the door.
Outside the door.
Ye Ning waited quietly, without the slightest impatience.
Seeing the door open, Ye Ning smiled gently.""Thank you for staying here, Big Brother."
Seeing that the young man in front of him had not changed, Da Niu could not help but heave a sigh of relief."Don't be polite. We're just helping each other out. Come in quickly. The village has been a little restless recently.”
Urging Ye Ning to enter the house, Da Niu hurriedly bolted the door and pushed against a few thigh-thick logs.
"Erniu, go and take out a few steamed buns left over from the dinner for the guests.”After doing this, Da Niu called out and pulled a stool for Ye Ning to sit on.
"Oh." It was Er Niu's first time seeing someone dressed like Ye Ning. He was very different from the farmers in the village. He couldn't help but feel a little excited until his father's voice sounded. Then he quickly ran to the kitchen.
Da Niu sat opposite Ye Ning and whispered,""Young master, don't be afraid of the dark. Recently, our village doesn't dare to light up the lamp!”
