PNB Chapter 219 Guajingzhou
Chapter 219 Guajingzhou
"Orcs?"
Leng Zhuxin was stunned. She had never heard of the existence of orcs in Xuanling Continent.
Moreover, Su Fanzhen just said that in the newly built city of Guajingzhou, monks, orcs, and monsters live together.
This is even more impossible in the Xuanling Continent, where humans and demons have been mortal enemies due to the war hundreds of years ago.
The only people and monsters in Xuanling Continent who can live in harmony are cultivators and contracted monsters.
The orcs didn't even dare to think about it.
Before the war between humans and demons, there were many people who practiced cultivation together with demons and beasts, and many half-orcs were born.
But after the battle between humans and demons, they all went to Penglai Island on the other side of the East China Sea.
Later, due to deep hatred, monks were not allowed to be with monsters, so naturally there were no new orcs.
How could Leng Zhuxin not be surprised when he heard Su Fanzhen say that there were many orcs in Guajing Island?
Su Fanzhen then realized that Leng Zhuxin had only been in the world of immortal cultivation for more than half a year and knew nothing about the affairs of Guajing Island.
He then continued, "There are very few cultivators living in Guajing Island. Only a few independent cultivators occupied that place a hundred years ago.
It gradually developed into a town and a city wall was built.
Orcs and monsters only appeared after the city walls were built, as the monks were less bloodthirsty.
Those orcs would not leave Guajing Island, so the monks passing by were kind-hearted and did not make things difficult for them.
They were just treated as an ordinary town, but they had become much more arrogant in the past two years, and orcs were naturally superior in physical fitness.
This made them no longer satisfied with that small town, so they expanded outward a lot, and almost the entire Guajingzhou was included in them.
The toll from the small town to Death Eye has also increased a lot.
Several inns in the town are also shady shops."
Leng Zhuxin frowned when she heard this.
Instead of being kind as Su Fan really thought, he asked, "Since they have become a nuisance, why don't the various sects deal with them?"
"Which sect would do something that is thankless?
Guajing Island doesn't have many resources, and there are always casualties when the sect sends disciples to deal with it.
There is more than one way to get to the Eye of Death, but going through Guajingzhou is a little faster.
Each sect also values equal interests, so naturally no one cares."
Su Fanzhen simply talked about the problem of Guajingzhou and did not persuade Leng Zhuxin to take a detour.
He only asked, "Little Junior Sister, what are you doing going to Guajing Island?"
Leng Zhuxin nodded and said, "The prescription we found in the town lord's mansion contained a medicine called Qingyuesha. I checked and found that only Guajingzhou in the salt sea area can breed Qingtuan rats.
If the Qingyue Sand was really provided by Song Guang, it is very likely that Guajingzhou was the place where he raised Qingtuan rats.
Originally I was just guessing, but after listening to my senior brother's words, I became more certain.
Those orcs and monks were most likely the ones who helped Song Guang raise and look after the green rats.
As for the fact that there are so many monsters in the city, it is probably to restrict the range of movement of monks entering the city.
It's also to cover up the stench of the green rat."
Leng Zhuxin probably combined the time when the independent cultivators entered Guajing Island with the time when large quantities of blue crystal grass were planted in Chenchuan Town, which was a difference of more than ten years.
The first veils appear when the saltworm crystals are collected.
This is a bit too coincidental, and the orcs appeared out of nowhere.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like they were trained by those monks to protect the town.
It is only because Guajing Island has few resources and the monks cannot see the benefits that they ignore the abnormalities of Guajing Island.
When Leng Zhuxin said this, Su Fanzhen and the others were stunned, and they also thought about what Leng Zhuxin said.
As expected, he also noticed the tricks of Guajingzhou.
After secretly praising Leng Zhuxin for his attentiveness, he decided to go to Guajingzhou.
……
It only takes half a day to travel from Shipwreck Town to Guajing Island by spirit boat. However, in order to reduce the target, the group including Sang Lai Yue did not take the spirit boat, but flew on swords instead.
Flying the sword was a bit slow, and it took half a day longer. It was only when the sun was about to set that he arrived outside Guajing Island.
The salt sea is somewhat similar to a desert, except that the yellow sand has turned white.
Illuminated by the orange sunset, the stars on the ground reflected the orange light, which, combined with the high city walls outside Guajingzhou, was quite magnificent.
The city wall encompasses the entire Guajingzhou Island, and the inside and outside of the wall are like two different worlds.
Outside the wall, there is silver sand everywhere, with a few dead grasses here and there. Inside the wall, there are towering trees, and their brown-red leaves extend beyond the city wall, blocking out the sky.
Every few steps under the city wall, there will be a few silverthorn grasses growing.
The city gates were tightly closed, and one could see with the naked eye that there was a barrier enveloping the entire town.
Leng Zhuxin couldn't help but doubt whether her guess was correct. This didn't seem like something Song Guang could do.
With Song Guang's cultivation level at the Divine Transformation Stage, it was not an easy task to control such a large town, let alone set up such a barrier above the town.
If Song Guang could really do it, he would not be just an elder of the Danluan Sect or a seventh-grade alchemist.
He should be a stronger person than Shangguan Heng.
Su Fanzhen also felt something was wrong. He squinted his eyes and looked at the city in front of him that encompassed the entire Guajingzhou: "When I came to Guajingzhou a few years ago, this was still a town, but in just a few years, it has encompassed the entire oasis.
There is an additional barrier on top, which doesn't seem like something that old man Song Guang can do.
Junior Sister, I’m afraid that Guajing Island is much more dangerous than we expected.
Even though the ancestor is accompanying you, you still need to be careful once you enter the city and try not to act alone."
