Chapter 417 Familiarity
Li Chuan then took this opportunity and asked about the situation in Cangwu Wilderness.

He asked: "When it comes to going to Cangwu Wilderness, which season is generally the best to go to?"

Yu Wansheng said: "Except for winter, you can come at any other time. Do you want to go to Cangwu Wilderness?"

"Well, I want to take a look." Li Chuan continued to ask, "Why isn't winter suitable?"

Yu Wansheng said: "In the Cangwu Wilderness in winter, there will be heavy snowfall, which lasts for more than ten days at a time, and the snow is very thick. The cycle of day and night is also changing. There are often several consecutive dark nights, and then several more. daytime."

"Will this happen again?" Li Chuan probably also knew that the location of Cangwu Wilderness was not at the pole, so he asked: "How many days can the longest night last?"

"The longest I have ever experienced was forty-nine days," Yu Wansheng said.

"So long?" Li Chuan was shocked.

"Well, more than a hundred years ago, when I just came of age. There is a longer period in history. The Cangwu Wilderness slept in darkness throughout the winter." Yu Wansheng chuckled, and he changed the subject. Said: "The continuous night is not scary, the scary thing is the day."

He said: "Under the snow, there are shadows. The shadows grow very fast. If they are not cleaned up, they will cover the entire Cangwu Wilderness in a few consecutive days. They will only dissipate when night falls."

Li Chuan felt that this was a bit contrary to common sense, and he asked: "Don't shadows generally only appear in the dark night?"

"Cangwu Wilderness is the place where humans and monsters had their final battle in ancient times. Those shadows wandering aimlessly under the winter sun are the lingering souls of the dead monsters," Yu Wansheng said.

"What will happen if you meet a shadow?" Li Chuan asked.

"You will be pulled into the never-ending battle of the past." Yu Wansheng replied.

"Does the half-demon tribe have a way to deal with this situation?" Li Chuan asked.

"Of course there is. We have secret methods to get rid of shadows, and we also have secret medicines that can wake up people who are trapped in residual dreams. However, in winter, although we do not have to hibernate, we will try to reduce activities and go out as much as possible." Yu Wansheng stopped. After a moment, he said: "That's why the abnormality before was so obvious."

"What about the other seasons of spring, summer, and autumn?" Li Chuan asked.

"Except for winter, at other times, as long as you don't deliberately go to dangerous places, you will generally be fine," Yu Wansheng said very conservatively. He said, "Although the half-demon tribe has lived in this place for tens of thousands of years, , but there are still many places that we have not reached yet.”

"Under the frozen soil of Cangwu Wilderness, there are many nests of monster beasts buried. Although those monster beasts have died long ago, their nests are still very dangerous, even more dangerous than when they were alive."

"In addition, several legendary secret places may also be in the Cangwu Wilderness. Therefore, many Xuanmen monks come to the Cangwu Wilderness every year to seek opportunities, and many of them die here."

Yu Wansheng sighed softly and said, "Brother Li Xian, when you go to Cangwu Wilderness, do you plan to travel and gain a lot of experience, or do you have other ideas?"

"I probably just want to see something, such as going to Qifeng Gorge and listening to the singing of thousands of birds." Li Chuan said, "Traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books. But..." He shook his head and said, "Wait. Well, maybe I have other ideas.”

Yu Wansheng said: "Let me give you a token. You take it and go to the Yu tribe..."

Li Chuan looked at the feather that Yu Wansheng handed over, interrupted him and said, "Thank you, Chief Yu, but no, I have a token." "Who gave it to you?" Yu Wansheng asked.

"He is also a half-demon from the Yu clan. His name is Yu Chen." Li Chuan said, taking out the token Yu Chen gave him and saying, "This is it."

Yu Wansheng's expression became visibly serious, and he asked, "Where did you meet him?"

Li Chuan asked: "What's wrong?"

Yu Wansheng said: "To tell you the truth, in addition to visiting several sects, I took my clan members out this time to look for him."

"Did he sneak out?" Li Chuan asked.

"He is the grandson of my cousin, who is the current clan leader." Yu Wansheng said, "Yu Chen... has always had the idea of ​​avenging my cousin. He likes to explore the ruins of various lairs. , he became even more addicted to it after his uncle passed away.”

"Because of the previous anomaly, after the winter, I called all the clan members back. Only then did I discover that he had not been in the Cangwu Wilderness for two or three years."

Li Chuan asked: "Are you afraid that he will come out to seek revenge?"

Yu Wansheng said: "More than that, I'm afraid that he will offend the people he shouldn't offend and involve the Yu clan." He said directly: "The catastrophe has begun, and the half-demon tribe cannot stay out of the catastrophe. Brother Li Xian, Please tell me where you met him."

Li Chuan said: "He should have come out for other things." Then he told the entanglement between Sun Tianxi and King Baoxing. He said: "Brother Yuchen is affectionate, righteous, brave and strategic. He is not Will cause trouble at will."

After listening to Li Chuan's narration, Yu Wansheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, this kid..." He did not continue, but took out a piece of animal skin, handed it to Li Chuan, and said: "This is the map of Cangwu Wilderness. We use it ourselves. Yu Chen gave you his token, and you are one of our own."

Li Chuan solemnly continued: "Thank you."

After that, Yu Wansheng called for more food and drinks. This time, they all lowered their guard and became familiar with each other.

Yu Wansheng asked about Li Chuan's identity: "Brother Li Xian, you don't look like a monk, nor can you be an ordinary person. Can you tell me your identity? If it's not convenient for you to tell me, just pretend I didn't ask."

"It's nothing inconvenient," Li Chuan said, "I am the heir of the Classic of Patterns and I am currently on duty at the Qintian Prison of the Dajiang Dynasty."

"Qin Tianjian? Gong Wuguang's Qin Tianjian?" Yu Wansheng asked. He obviously didn't pay much attention to the first half of Li Chuan's words.

Li Chuan didn't expect that Gong Wuguang's evil reputation was known to even the Yu Clan's clan leader. He admitted, "That's it. Palace Supervisor Zheng, he didn't do anything to the half-demon, right?"

"No, he just dug into the lairs of several ancient monsters a thousand years ago and took away some of the bones. Now those lairs have become the common testing ground for the half-demon tribe." Yu Wansheng said.

"Oh..." Li Chuan nodded. He thought for a moment and asked, "That half-demon woman from Shuangye Clan, did she get the support of the half-demon tribe at that time?"

"She? No." Yu Wansheng answered. He obviously did not shy away from this matter. He said: "She was rescued by people from the Changyou tribe in a long night. Her blood was too pure, so we all I began to suspect that there are still ancient monsters alive. She promised to tell us where the ancient monsters are."
