Mountain dwelling practice: I am a gentle guest in the world

Chapter 762

Only when you are in the forest do you realize how big the world inside is, and that the vastness of the Silent Forest is almost equivalent to a small world.

In addition to bordering the demon world, there are countless demon villages in the forest and nearby, all of which are isolated from the outside world by barriers set up by their elders/ancestors. Only adult people who have reached a certain age can carry entry and exit tokens to go outside for training.

Even if it is a paradise, the cultivation of its descendants must continue to improve.

No matter how powerful a monster is, it will eventually weaken, and no matter how powerful a barrier is, it will eventually become weak. The strongest defensive barrier is to cultivate descendants who are better than the previous generation, and let them resist the damage caused to the village by the outside world.

Similarly, there is no such thing as an impregnable barrier.

The little demons who are full of curiosity about the outside world rack their brains to find loopholes in the barrier. After thousands of years, the little demons, who are more clever than the previous generation, finally find the weak points of the barrier and often slip out to accept the beating of reality.

As for the little demon, he only remembers eating and not being beaten. As long as his parents and the village are safe, he will forget the pain and let the wound heal.

Even if some of the little friends never came back, it still couldn't stop the others from finding opportunities to slip away. The adult demon guards in the village patrolled the barrier every day to plug the loopholes, but they couldn't stop the curious little demons from finding other ways.

Ever since a human cultivator appeared in the forest, the little demons have been running more frequently.

The monsters living in the village were all honest and simple. When they learned that the monster king valued the human race, they lowered their guard. As time passed, the monsters were still worried that the children who sneaked out would be harmed by other tribes in the forest.

I didn't feel relieved until I learned that they had arrived at the tree house.

"We are here to rescue Aqiu," several little demons took the snacks she threw to them, sat in a row with their backs against the logs and ate while talking in unison, "Aqiu and his father were out playing and were caught by some cultivators..."

What the little kids call following is actually following secretly, without even their father knowing.

Then the little demon was captured by the monks. Its father was only concerned with keeping an eye on the surroundings to see if there were any ambushes. Even if he noticed that a low-level little demon was captured nearby, he didn't care. He wanted to take care of it, but he didn't have the strength to do so. He could take care of it today, but not tomorrow.

What's more, the monsters roaming in the forest fight with various tribes all day long, and are in a state of the survival of the fittest.

Strictly speaking, the strength of free-range monsters is far superior to that of the monsters in the village. If they are caught, it proves that the opponent is stronger than the free-range monsters. How dare the monsters from the village act rashly?

If they are caught, the entire village will be implicated.

When Aqiu's father returned home, he realized that his son had secretly followed him. He immediately went out to look for the child, but unfortunately he returned empty-handed. Now Aqiu's mother cries all day at home.

Aqiu's mother wanted to go out to find her child, but she was trapped at home by Aqiu's father and couldn't even get out of the door.

"Why do you want to imprison her?" Sang Yue frowned slightly.

"Because Aqiu's mother said she won't come back until she can't find the child," the little demon who once delivered the message to the demon world for her chewed on the twisted candy with relish, "Aqiu's father said she can't take any risks."

This little demon is called Aqi, and he has no father or mother. He was picked up by an elder of the demon village and fed with food from hundreds of families for hundreds of years. The point is that it took hundreds of years to grow into the appearance of a three-year-old child, with no head or body.

Fortunately, the monster village has no shortage of food for it. If it doesn’t grow, then it doesn’t grow. Just keep raising it.

It didn't eat this meal in vain, and often went out to play, and every time it would bring some necessities to a villager. Most of the time, it brought medicinal plants, and sometimes it brought items that humans carried with them, such as magic tools, magic treasures, and spiritual stones.

But it was thrown out by the elders, who said that things cultivated by humans were poisonous and could not be picked up.

Later, I realized that if I picked up something that was repaired by someone, it would be tracked back to the village, so I stopped picking it up. But it was still the only thing that gave the villagers a headache, because it was the biggest loophole in the barrier protecting the village. No matter how the barrier was reinforced, it could still come in and out freely and could not be stopped at all.

In the past, it didn't know it was a loophole, and not only did it run out to play by itself, it also brought out the little demon children in the village. After being severely reprimanded by the elders, it didn't bring them with it and ran out to play by itself.

The children in the village either stole the village tokens or stole the potions used by the village monsters to hide their own auras and follow the adults out.

Aqiu was the latter, and he ended up in disaster.

"Aqiu's father is afraid that Aqiu's mother will never come back after leaving. Everyone says that you can have another child, but if the mother is gone, then you will lose everything." Aqi said while chewing on a sweet and crispy snack.

"Where did you learn this nonsense?" Sang Yue put her long hair on top of her head and rolled up her sleeves to check if anything had been added to the potion. "Mother and child are connected by heart. You can persuade them, but you can't sleep them."

If this trap had been replaced by a more courageous female, the family would have been broken up. Unfortunately, Aqiu's mother was weak and probably could not escape the barrier of Aqiu's father.

If others knew about this situation back home on Earth, they would call the police.

But this is the spirit world, a demon forest village, and everything is solved by strength. If Aqiu Niang can't even break through her husband's imprisonment, even if she leaves the village, she can't save the child, and maybe both mother and daughter will be killed.

No matter whether it is a demon beast or a demon cultivator, once they fall into the hands of some cruel and insane cultivators, they will not die a good death.

Therefore, even if Sang Yue did not agree with what Aqiu's father did, she would not interfere and persuade the monster in the village to release Aqiu's mother.

"Okay," he made sure the potions in the pot were safe, put them all in a wooden barrel and placed it aside for anyone to use. Then he stretched out his hand and created a teleportation circle in the air, waving at the little brats, "Go back."

“Thank you, Asan!” A few of the little demons’ eyes lit up when they saw the teleportation aperture. They quickly got up and rushed into the aperture with snacks in their hands, shouting, “Dad, Mom, we are back…”

Ever since they discovered that they could go directly back home from her place, the little demons who sneaked out would find ways to get to the tree house whenever they encountered danger or got lost.

Once here, they can rest assured and have nothing to fear.

"We're not going back," one of the twins hugged each other tightly and stared at her warily, "We haven't had enough fun yet."

"roll."

Sang Yue raised her hand silently and threw the protesting twins into the light circle. She heard the joyful calls of the demons from the other side of the light circle, and then she looked back at the remaining one with peace of mind.

"Aqi, you're not going back again?"

The force she used just now was only effective on ordinary little demons. To Aqi, it was like a cool breeze on his face, nothing more.

"I'm going out to look for Aqiu," Aqi held the snack in his hands and ate it, his short legs kicking the soft sand under him comfortably, "He is just an ordinary mountain cat, of no use to humans..."

It was raised in the village, its limbs have degenerated and its fighting power is not high. It is a monster that was born with human form and has lost all its wildness. It is really good for nothing.

It would be fine if it was adopted by a cultivator as a demon pet, but I'm afraid that the cultivator who caught it would sell it to a restaurant that slaughters demon beasts to eat its meat and drink its blood, and then cut open its demon pill and eat it to prolong its life.

"The pancakes made by Aqiu Niang are delicious..."

She knew that Ah Qi loved to eat, so she would always leave a portion of pancakes for him every time she made them. She could not repay Ah Qi for feeding her, so she could only show her gratitude by rescuing Ah Qi.
