Chapter 2585 Father and Son

The black and white horses are rare spiritual weapons, but Zhang Xuezhou eliminated them quite quickly.

He hadn't used this set of spiritual tools for several years.

Not only could the cultivators of the same age not keep up with Zhang Xuezhou's progress in cultivation, even the rare spiritual weapons could not meet Zhang Xuezhou's needs.

The venerables can use it for their entire lives, but Zhang Xuezhou really has no place to use the black and white horses.

Although Zhang Xuezhou could give away some unused treasures to allow others to travel long distances, this set of spiritual weapons had some problems.

Firstly, Zhang Xuezhou was not sure whether the two venerables, Bai Gu and Heishan, had left a back door.

Secondly, this is a spiritual weapon given to Hong Ku by the two venerables Bai Gu and Hei Shan. If it is used by anyone else, it is not surprising that these two venerables will take it back after seeing it.

The best user of the black and white horses is undoubtedly the real Hong Ku.

Zhang Xuezhou even suspected that Hong Ku had been fooling the Venerable White Bone and others over the years, and needed to use him to confuse people, which resulted in the black and white horses being kept safely here with Zhang Xuezhou.

But whether it is Hong Ku or Venerable Bai Gu and others, these people may be disappointed. Zhang Xuezhou has never exhausted the black and white horses until today, and his own magic power has never been touched by the sacrifice and practice of this set of spiritual weapons.

He did not serve as a trap for Hong Ku, nor was his true identity discovered by Venerable Bai Gu and others after tracing his origins.

"We still need to run another 800 miles to use up all the mana that the two venerables have cultivated before!"

Shanglinyuan is an important royal garden, which is a bit like Liangyuan. It adds artificial buildings based on the original mountains, waters, woodlands, etc., thus creating an integrated landscape of mountains, waters and buildings.

Even the city of Chang'an, surrounded by walls and moats, could not stop Zhang Xuezhou, let alone Shanglin Garden, which took advantage of its terrain.

Two horses, one black and one white, leaped among the mountains and forests of Shanglin Garden and crossed the river.

Sitting on the back of the white horse, Zhang Xuezhou tried his best to use up the black and white horses before Hong Ku arrived in Chang'an City, so that Hong Ku could trade with confidence.

The guards in Shanglin Garden within a radius of hundreds of miles are extremely weak, and you will hardly encounter anyone unless you go into the palace area of ​​Shanglin Garden.

Zhang Xuezhou rode his horse blindly for a while.

He flew and rode a horse in Huainan, but could not find any trace of Changxing. His attempt to find Changxing eventually turned into a journey to save him. After failing to find him, Zhang Xuezhou decided to try his luck in Shanglinyuan.

Of course, the result is the same as always.

He didn't know whether the secret place in Shanglinyuan was too secretive, or his recent luck was average, or his luck level was not up to standard, or for other reasons, but Zhang Xuezhou rode his horse through mountains and rivers, and he didn't see any abnormal areas to explore.

This made Zhang Xuezhou finally give up the idea of ​​taking chances and instead try to use up the black and white horses as soon as possible.

The black and white horses' mileage of one thousand miles dropped to eight hundred miles, then from eight hundred miles to six hundred miles, and then to four hundred miles...

"There are quite a few little demons in here!"

The secret place was not found, but Zhang Xuezhou accidentally discovered some monsters.

The hands and feet of these monsters were bound with fine iron shackles and locked in boulders or caves, so their range of movement was extremely limited.

Simple-minded beasts will die from this restraint, but monsters with intelligence will survive much longer.

Some remaining bones proved that these monsters were fed regularly and were not trapped and starved to death.

"It looks like it's a demon-raising pill!"

Although Zhang Xuezhou found some moth cores that had not grown for many days to replace the demon pill in reality, for alchemists with strict standards, a large demon pill that has been cultivated for a long enough time is the best medicine.

Many alchemists attributed the reason for their failure in alchemy to the demon pill, believing that it was the insufficient quality of the demon pill that caused the good fortune pill they refined to have mediocre effects, or even fail.

In this situation, a good demon pill is extremely precious.

Liangyuan in Suiyang also cultivated many exotic flowers and plants, and also housed rare and exotic animals, and also bred monsters.

It is also normal to raise some small monsters and cultivate elixirs in Shanglin Garden.

Moreover, the new emperor has mentioned the use of wild beasts' keen sense of scent to find secret places, and the current arrangement goes a step further.

Zhang Xuezhou found six little demon nests along the way, and he carefully observed them for a while. "It may be difficult to rely on the little demons!"

There was no secret place near the little demons' nest, and Zhang Xuezhou didn't find it either. He sighed, and heard a cry coming from a cave.

"I want to eat meat, I want to eat big meat. Only by eating big meat can I get big pills. You guys should give me big meat quickly. It's been twenty days. What's the meaning of not giving me food for twenty days..."

The voice was full of resentment and also had a familiar feel.

The emperors of Chang'an City have no meat to eat, let alone the monsters they raise.

Some people can eat meat secretly, but it is impossible to eat it openly, let alone slaughter animals for meat.

Monsters that can accept vegetarianism can still eat a few bites, but monsters that only eat meat can only starve. If they are not starved to death, they can be fed after the mourning period is over. If they starve to death, they will be forced to cut open their stomachs and take the pills.

"You can't treat me like this. I am also a demon. A soldier can be killed but not humiliated...Sir, does the court allow people to eat meat now?"

The shouting continued, and after hearing it many times, Zhang Xuezhou felt that it sounded somewhat familiar.

He jumped off the white horse and approached the cave. Footsteps were heard and the mumbling voice in the cave had changed into another look.

"It's you?"

Turning around the rocks, Zhang Xuezhou stuck his head into the cave, only to see a stone slab laid horizontally like a bed in the cave, which was less than five meters deep. Water drops were falling from the stone wall, dripping into a stone urn next to the stone bed.

On the stone bed, a half-human-tall gray-skinned toad monster had its leg bones pierced by chains and nailed to the stone slab. When it saw Zhang Xuezhou coming in, it lowered its head and saluted with its front legs closed.

It was not until Zhang Xuezhou spoke in surprise that the gray-skinned toad monster raised its head.

"Big... lord?"

"Don't you recognize me?"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed at himself and looked at the toad monster.

If the outer layer of skin had not been shed, Zhang Xuezhou would have had to change the name of the gray-skinned toad monster.

Without the golden toad robe, only the essence of the toad monster remains.

Zhang Xuezhou opened his mouth repeatedly, and the gray-skinned toad demon widened his eyes, his expression changing from shock to bewilderment, to disbelief, and then to tears after a mixture of sadness and joy.

"I recognize you. Even if you turned into ashes, I would still recognize you. Godfather, you must save me!"

Zhang Xuezhou felt that he had been a little shameless since his debut, but later he discovered that people were no different. Some people could talk without any worries just because they themselves had not been in danger.

When faced with a dilemma that one cannot resolve, no one would fail to seize the glimmer of hope.

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but sigh when he saw Jin Wanliang recognizing him.

Although he really didn't want to have such a son, King Jinchan accepted Jin Wanliang as his grandson, and he also worshipped King Jinchan as his adoptive father, so the man and the demon could be connected by force.

"Why are you locked up here?" Zhang Xuezhou asked suspiciously.

"My ancestor left the Holy Land to do business. I had a hard time in the Holy Land. The bird demons around me were born to defeat me. I was scared when I saw them. I was always on edge in that place. Later, I thought about returning to my hometown. But I was arrested not long after I returned!"

Jin Wanliang cried bitterly and recounted his own miserable days.

This made Zhang Xuezhou feel that this kind of life was too simple and not thrilling at all.

After going back and forth and being imprisoned, coupled with the fact that the cultivation speed of monsters is average, the Jin Wanliang Zhang Xuezhou saw several years ago is still the same as before.

"Godfather, you are a great monk now, you have to save me!"

Jin Wanliang dragged the chain and raised his legs and jumped twice. He tried to look up at Zhang Xuezhou's head.

More than ten years ago, Zhang Xuezhou was covered in dust and rolled in the snow-capped mountains, eating raw meat to survive. But as time passed, Jin Wanliang found that the mortals he could eat in one bite were no longer within his reach.

He sniffed hard and felt that there was an extremely terrifying aura hidden on Zhang Xuezhou.

It seemed as if Zhang Xuezhou could kill himself with just a thought.
