ninety thousand miles

Chapter 577 Speculation
Li Chuan recalled the ghost he encountered in the Wochi pond and asked, "I remember that you and Daoist Jiang were both able to dispel ghosts. So you should be able to dispel shadows, right?"

"The Void Spirit is born from the gathering of scattered energy. We can certainly disperse it, or even drive it. But as long as the White Night is still there, energy continues to gather, and more shadows will escape from underground." Wen Guying explained the nature of the Void Spirit to Li Chuan. He said: "The Void Spirit has no consciousness, but it can absorb various energies and emotions, thereby presenting and changing into different forms."

"The Cangwu Plain is an ancient battlefield, and countless corpses of ancient monsters are buried underground. Although hundreds of thousands of years have passed, it is hard to say whether the corpses of those ancient beasts have turned into dust. I tend to think that some of the corpses of the ancient beasts are still there."

"Those spirits were hatched from the rotting flesh and bones. When the white night came, they began to move upwards, following the roots and grass leaves, and finally broke out of the ground, carrying the memories of the past, and howling on the land of Cangwu Wilderness."

"Only when night falls will they dissipate. Or rather, fall back into the soil, back to where they started."

"So the spell is useless?" Li Chuan asked.

"It's useless." Wen Guying said firmly, "Firstly, the Cangwu wilderness is too large. Even if the old palace master comes, he can't save the spirits in such a large area. Secondly, these shadows are different from ordinary spirits, so the effectiveness of the spell will definitely be discounted. And there may be more shadows lurking under the grass and soil."

"Is it because of Bai Ye that the shadow escaped, or is it because of the shadow..." Li Chuan tried hard to find the right words, "The shadow summoned Bai Ye?"

"I think it's the latter," Wen Guying said.

"So just waiting won't bring about the night?" Li Chuan asked.

"I think so." Wen Guying said.

"The evil spirit can go to the secret realm and be born early. Does she also have a way to activate the shadows originally gathered underground and summon Bai Ye?" Li Chuan said.

"I think so too." Wen Guying said.

"Youxi Valley..." Li Chuan thought of the dreams of the Xun people. He said, "Wait, maybe she disturbed the shadows in Youxi Valley, and they gradually floated over with the white night and floated to the territory of the Xun people, and then some of them had strange dreams."

This time, before Wen Guying could speak, he continued, "So, the place where Chi Lin is sleeping is very likely in Youxi Valley?"

"That makes sense." Wen Guying said.

"You think not?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said, "We need more information. Let's wait until tomorrow at the banquet to hear it. Another possibility is that the demon spirit deliberately led us to think this way."

"The demon spirit needs a key and needs me to open something for her." Li Chuan said, "So it must be Youxi Valley. The demon spirit must be in it and has set all kinds of traps."

After saying that, Li Chuan took a few steps forward.

The wind is still strong.

The two walked in silence for a long time. Li Chuan asked, "Master Wen, besides the corpses of ancient monsters, is there anything else under the Cangwu Wilderness?"

"And their nests." Wen Guying said.

"What about the others?" Li Chuan asked.

"There is still great terror." Wen Guying said.

"What is it?" Li Chuan asked.

"I don't know. The old palace master probably knows something, but he didn't say." Wen Guying said.

"Has the Luoxia Secret Realm been revealed?" Li Chuan asked.

"It should still be some time. But it will be soon." Wen Guying said.

"I always feel a little uneasy," said Li Chuan.

"Perhaps you have also been affected by the shadow. Go back, and we will wait for Bai Ye to come again."

"Okay." Li Chuan said. After walking back to the settlement, the chanting had stopped. Li Chuan saw a group of Feather Tribe members walking out with wooden sticks. They were going outside to continue to disperse the shadows.

The two returned to the house and sat down. The head of the Yu tribe came over and invited them to have dinner with him. He said, "We prepared it hastily yesterday. When I got up today, I told them to steam the mutton."

So they followed Chief Feather.

The lamb was steamed in milk and sprinkled with wolfberries and bean sprouts.

After Li Chuan ate two pieces, he felt his body getting hot.

"This meat is delicious." Lao Xiaokai said as he swallowed the mutton.

"Doctor Lao, do you need any other herbs?" Chief Yu asked him. "I asked my tribesmen to look for it, and they found some dried daikon leaves and other herbs."

Lao smiled and said, "I'll go down and take a look."

Li Chuan glanced at him suspiciously, suspecting that he was using the name of curing him to plunder the Feather Tribe's medicinal herbs.

Lao Xiaokai looked calm.

Chief Yu said, "Fortunately, we have Doctor Lao. Yesterday, two tribe members came back late and were entangled by shadows, breaking their legs. Doctor Lao treated their legs. Doctor Lao also prescribed medicine for several elderly people in the tribe who had been coughing, and they all said they felt much better. Doctor Lao is really a miracle doctor."

Lao Xiaokai smiled and said, "You're welcome. Every doctor would do the same."

"Well, can't the Feathered Tribe fly? How did they break their legs?" Li Chuan asked.

The Feather Chief replied, "Of course it's because they can fly that they break easily."

"That's... I'm just ignorant." Li Chuan said.

After eating, Li Chuan felt drowsy. He thought that he would have to test the effect of the Tianyin pot on the shadow in the evening, so he said goodbye to the chief of the Yu tribe. The chief of the Yu tribe did not keep him, but only said that if he needed anything, he must tell him. After returning to the house, Li Chuan fell asleep.

After waking up, he drank another bowl of medicine, and then walked out with Wen Gu Ying Jiang Mei. When they were about to leave the settlement, Yu Chen caught up with them and said, "I'll go with you. Bai Ye is too dangerous. Not only are there shadows, but it's also easy to get lost. Take me with you."

Wen Guying said: "Okay, you come and show me the way."

"Okay." Yu Chen agreed immediately and asked, "Where do you want to go?"

Wen Guying said, "Far from here, but not too far, just a few dozen miles away. A more open area. This area is the most dangerous place in Bai Ye, as you know."

Yu Chen thought for a moment and said, "That's Qifeng Gorge."

"Lead the way." Wen Guying said.

"Are you planning to go over there?" Yu Chen asked.

Wen Guying said: "Just fly, we will catch up."

"Okay." After Yu Chen said that, he took two steps forward, spread his wings and flew up.

"Get on the boat." Jiang Mei took out the green leaf boat.

"Oh oh..." Li Chuan originally thought that Wen Guying would carry him over with a sword again.

Taoist Jiang is still reliable, he thought, and stepped into the Qingye Boat.

Wen Guying glanced at them, then flew up on his sword and caught up with Yu Chen.
