Two Worlds: I Became an Immortal

Chapter 176 Into the Mountains

Yingshui County is not very big, and it only takes half an incense stick of time to get out.

It was just such a small place, but when Song Yunyuan was walking on the street, he ran into no less than ten goblins.

The abilities of these goblins vary, but seeing so many of them gathered here is really frightening.

"It seems that we have to find the Black Cloud Demon as soon as possible. Otherwise, with so many demons gathered here, something bad will happen sooner or later."

Song Yunyuan glanced at the goblins around him, sighed in his heart, and left Yingshui County.

Heading south from Yingshui County is the direction towards Lintai Peak.

After walking for a while, Song Yunyuan arrived in front of Lintai Peak.

What Song Yunyuan didn't expect was that at this time there were still people heading towards Lintai Peak, and judging from the appearance of these people, they did not look like the people of Yingshui County.

"Brother, are you also going up to that mountain to look for the Immortal?"

Just as Song Yunyuan was looking a little surprised, he saw a scholar walking over. The scholar came up to Song Yunyuan, took a look at him, and then asked with a smile.

Song Yunyuan was slightly moved when he heard this, "Why, are all these people here heading for the Black Cloud Immortal?"

Looking at the number of people around, there are probably over a hundred of them!
There are too many people coming here. It's almost the You hour now. If it were the Chen hour, there would probably be even more people.

"Of course, they are going there for the Black Cloud Immortal. Many people have heard about the immortals in this place, so naturally many are interested. Not to mention the You hour, even the Zi hour has many people going there."

When Song Yunyuan heard this, he looked up at the crowd in front of him.

With so many people entering the mountains, if someone were to go missing, no one would notice.

Moreover, these people were dazzled by the so-called immortals. After entering, how could they care if anyone around them was missing?

I don’t know whether the method used to seal the Black Cloud Demon here is the same as before?
If it were different, the other party had tricked so many fairies and people to come here, probably because he wanted to use them to help him escape from trouble?

When Song Yunyuan thought of this, his eyebrows slightly raised and some speculations arose in his mind.

"That's right. After all, as long as we can see the Black Cloud Immortal, we can ascend to heaven in one step, and enjoy endless wealth and glory in the future."

Song Yunyuan also knew the mentality of those who were bewitched to come here. To be honest, it was not their fault.

It’s just that this old Black Cloud demon is too cunning and only used this method.

The man beside him nodded with a sigh after hearing this, "Yes, but there are also people who come here for other purposes."

Song Yunyuan looked at the other party in confusion, "Other purposes? What purpose?"

“For example, if there is a family member with a terminal illness, they come here to seek elixir, hoping to cure their loved one.”

At this point, the man in front of him paused for a moment, then looked at Song Yunyuan, "Besides, I think you didn't come here for wealth and glory."

"Oh? You can see that, too?"

Song Yunyuan was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Brother, you look very generous. You don't look like someone who works hard on the farm to make a living. I guess your family is quite well-off. If a person like you comes to this mountain, it's probably not for wealth and glory."

Listening to the words of the man next to him, Song Yunyuan nodded with a smile on his face.

"Then why are you here, brother?"

Song Yunyuan noticed that while the other party was chatting with him, he was also walking towards the mountain very slowly, step by step, without any urgency at all.

Being able to remain so calm must be due to his desire for quick success, right?

This was Song Yunyuan's guess.

When the man at the side heard this, he paused for a moment, then sighed and said, "To be honest, I am not immune to worldly desires. I came here for fame and fortune."

Song Yunyuan was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the other party came here to seek an official position?

The man at the side did not seem to notice Song Yunyuan's abnormality, and continued, "I have studied the books of sages for many years, but I still cannot make the list. I am now desperate and trying all kinds of methods."

When the man said this, he couldn't help but sigh, with a look of dejection on his face.

The elders in his family have high hopes for him. If he fails to make the list, he will really be ashamed to face his elders.

After a while, the man recovered and looked at Song Yunyuan beside him, with a look of shame on his face, "I have made a fool of myself."

Song Yunyuan shook his head when he heard this. "Every family has its own problems. How could I laugh at you, brother?"

The man beside him turned around and looked at Song Yunyuan, "I haven't asked you your name yet, brother?"

"My name is Song Yunyuan."

"Prince Yue."

Wang Ziyue on the side also bowed at this moment. He felt that Song Yunyuan should be of the same kind as him. He seemed much closer to him after he introduced his name.

"By the way, I don't know why you came here, Brother Song?"

Wang Ziyue looked at Song Yunyuan with some curiosity in his heart.

After all the talk just now, Song Yunyuan never mentioned why he came to Lintai Peak.

"Of course I came here to look for immortals."

Upon hearing this, Song Yunyuan showed a smile on his face, and emphasized the word "immortal".

Wang Ziyue was stunned when he heard this. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "I just saw that you are not an ordinary person. Your ambition is indeed far beyond what ordinary people can compare to."

Having said that, he couldn't help but sigh heavily.

"I really envy Brother Song for coming here to seek immortality. If you really give me this opportunity, I'm afraid I will still worry about my parents at home."

After Song Yunyuan said this, even he was moved.

It’s a pity that even though he was moved, he didn’t dare to do it casually.

It is hard to let go of something that I am concerned about.

Seeing that Wang Ziyue had misunderstood, Song Yunyuan did not explain anything, but continued to walk towards the mountains.

"Brother Wang, there is no need to be so envious. Your background is also something that others envy."

Seeing the other party so emotional, Song Yunyuan also comforted him.

Wang Ziyue did not deny it when he heard it. He nodded slightly and followed Song Yunyuan.

"By the way, Brother Wang, have you just arrived here as well?"

Song Yunyuan thought about it and started asking another question.

"Not really. I have been here for more than half a month. It's just that the dry food I brought into the mountains has been eaten up. I had no choice but to go down the mountain and bring some dry food back into the mountains."

Having said that, Wang Ziyue's gaze suddenly stopped at Song Yunyuan.

"Brother Song, this is your first time here. You didn't even bring any dry food? But it doesn't matter. I have a lot of dry food here, enough for the two of us to eat for more than half a month." With his previous experience, Wang Ziyue brought a lot of dry food when he went into the mountains again this time.

Even if two people eat it together, it can last for half a month.

Song Yunyuan turned his head and looked at the other person carrying a book box. He could vaguely see a lot of dry food inside.

And at the top, there are some books.

Song Yunyuan thanked him and said, "Brother Wang is so persistent in coming here to seek fame, but have you seen other scholars gain fame here before?"

Wang Ziyue shook his head upon hearing this, "It's just that before, a good friend of mine was originally a cripple. After coming here, the immortals helped him heal his leg. That's why I came here after hearing about this."

Song Yunyuan suddenly understood and stopped asking any more questions.

It seems that Wang Ziyue doesn't know much about what's going on here.

As for the friend that the other party knew, I guess that friend didn't know where the Black Cloud Demon was.

The Yingshui City God has already asked about this, so there is no need to think about it too much.

The two of them walked forward along the mountain path. There were originally a lot of people around them, but because the two of them seemed very casual, they were not in a hurry.

Therefore, after a while, the crowd in front disappeared, leaving only two people at the end walking slowly.

Without Wang Ziyue noticing, Song Yunyuan's feet slightly moved, and an inexplicable charm emanated from it.

This is Song Yunyuan exploring the surroundings, trying to see if he can find the old black cloud monster nearby.

If you can find it, it will save you some effort.

However, as Song Yunyuan carefully explored the surroundings little by little and sensed the surroundings attentively, he felt that there was nothing unusual.

The only thing that could be felt was that some goblins were mixed in with the crowd, and it seemed that they also wanted to take this opportunity to find the old Black Cloud demon.

There were also some goblins who revealed their true forms, restrained their demonic aura, and then jumped up and down everywhere in the mountains.

Judging from this, he should think that the Black Cloud Demon is around Lintai Peak, and he can find the Black Cloud Demon by searching all around.

With just a slight perception, Song Yunyuan had already realized that there were many monsters in this mountain.

"It seems that this old Black Cloud Demon is not in Lintai Peak? Or is it that the place where he was sealed had some tricks used by the predecessors in the past, so I can't detect it?"

Song Yunyuan pondered in his heart, and after casually searching around, he still couldn't find the location of the Black Cloud Monster.

If that's the case, then we can't act rashly next.

Otherwise, it would alert the old Black Cloud Demon and that would be bad.

Song Yunyuan and Wang Ziyue walked through the shade of the trees and when they reached halfway up the mountain, they saw the sun slowly rising over the top of the mountain in the distance.

Due to the obstruction of the mountains, when looking towards Yingshui County from here, the entire Yingshui County has already fallen into darkness.

As Song Yunyuan's eyes flashed, he could see demonic energy rising above Yingshui County, as if the entire Yingshui County was enveloped by a thick demonic energy.

Such a scene made Song Yunyuan frown unconsciously.

"After I deal with the Black Cloud Demon, I will come back to deal with you guys."

Song Yunyuan's gaze lingered on Yingshui County for a moment, and then retracted.

"Brother, what do you think of this beautiful sunset?"

Wang Ziyue did not pay attention to Song Yunyuan's eyes, but stared straight into the distance. He saw the sun slowly setting, and the clouds were all dyed into various colors at this moment.

Such a scene is really fascinating.

“Nature is so beautiful.”

Upon hearing this, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but praise.

Wang Ziyue also nodded with emotion. After standing there for a while and looking for a while, he called on Song Yunyuan to continue moving forward.

"There should be a stone platform a little ahead. People often build fires and spend the night here these days. Let's go over and take a look. This way we can have a companion and avoid being attacked by wild beasts in the mountains."

"Oh, there are still wild beasts in the mountains?"

Song Yunyuan frowned when he heard this.

The animals in the mountains are not like humans. They are very sensitive. With so many goblins appearing nearby, I'm afraid that these ferocious beasts have already fled from here.

Wang Ziyue nodded when he heard this, "That's right, we can hear some calls from time to time at night."

It must be that goblin calling out.

After hearing this, Song Yunyuan began to guess in his heart.

If it were any other ordinary beast, it wouldn't be like this.

While the two were talking, they arrived at the stone platform that Wang Ziyue mentioned.

The stone platform is embedded in the ground, and there is a rain pavilion next to it. The stone is quite large in comparison, and someone has already started a fire here.

By this time, the sun had already set, and the rising flames made everyone's faces flicker.

"My dear brothers, can Brother Song and I borrow a piece of precious land to rest for the night?"

Wang Ziyue was very polite. Even though he knew there was no one here, he still came here to pick up firewood, so naturally he had to ask a question.

After he finished speaking, the woodcutter stood up and said, "You can rest here for a night, but all the firewood is mine. You two need to take out five copper coins each!"

Wang Ziyue was stunned when he heard this. This had never happened before.
When I came here today, it seemed like everyone here had some human presence.

However, Wang Ziyue quickly came to his senses and realized that if it was just five copper coins, he could take it out.

Thinking of this, Wang Ziyue hurriedly took out ten copper coins from his sleeve and handed them to the woodcutter.

"This belongs to Brother Song and me."

The woodcutter took the copper coins, immediately smiled and invited the two to sit down.

“It wasn’t like this here before.”

Wang Ziyue and Song Yunyuan sat down together, and Wang Ziyue whispered something at the side.

Perhaps the woodcutter had heard this, and he said, "I won't charge you this money for nothing. When you fall asleep at night, I will keep adding firewood to make sure you don't catch a cold!"

Prince Yue turned around after hearing this and said, "If that's the case, then these five copper coins are really worth it."

Just as the conversation here ended, the woodcutter came up with a new trick. He brought out an iron pot, started washing the pot, adding water, and then added all kinds of wild game.

"Fresh wild mushroom chicken soup! Just one pot, hurry up and make a reservation if you want to eat it, or it will be gone!"

After saying this, the woodcutter added more firewood, and the fire burned even more vigorously.

At first, no one paid much attention to it, but after waiting for the soup to boil, many pedestrians who were eating dry food couldn't help swallowing their saliva. The aroma was so rich!
