Chapter 109 CHAPTER 108 : Entering The Undying Forest
All of them had a hole in their chests. Then, they all collapsed on the ground lifeless.
Joey put all the important necessities from those carriages inside his space ring. Then he started searching through all the dead bodies. He got many space rings from those businessmen and bandits.
"Those bandits were even richer than this group of businessmen," Joey said casually while checking all the goods inside those space rings. He found a piece of map from inside the space ring of the bandit's boss.
"Sister Rose, I found a map. Come and have a look." Joey said.
It was a part of the map for the Undying Forest. Many dot and cross marks were on the map.
"It seems to be the spots where they hide their treasures. Alright, time is all we have. Let's go and see what they keep in those spots." Joey suggested.
Then the two flew toward the direction of the Undying forest. They first visited all the dot spots. There they found a lot of treasures, herbs, spirit stones, cultivation books, and skills.
After that, they approached the nearest cross spot on the map.
On a ravine, currently, a ten-year-old boy was chased by a lvl 5 beast. He was in lvl 10 of the Houtian realm. He was too agile, unlike his cultivation realm. He wore beast skin clothes all over his body.
When the leopard outran him and pounced at him, he dodged to the side.
"Hahaha, come on. You can do better than this." He taunted the lvl 5 beast.
Roar!
It cried with anger and started pouncing at the boy frantically.
"Heehee, that is what I am talking about. Come on little cat. " He shouted and looked back at the leopard while he kept running.
As he kept running while looking back, he lost his footing and rolled on the ground.
Taking the chance the leopard cried and jumped on him.
The boy closed his eyes and thought, "Sorry granny! Xiao Feng can't make it today. Hmm! I must listen to her advice."
The boy waited for his demise but still, the leopard didn't attack him. Then, he opened his one eye and looked around. He saw the leopard lying dead near him.
He looked all around but found no one.
"Who is the one that saves my life? " He murmured and asked himself.
From the air, Joey and Rose landed beside the boy.
"Ahh! Who are you?" The boy jumped back and took out a knife and pointed at them.
"Boy, we just saved you from entering the stomach of that leopard. And now you are pointing your knife at us. " Rose said with a smile.
The boy looked at them. He put back his knife on his waist and smiled at them.
"Hee hee, elder brother, elder sister, Xiao Feng thank you for saving my life. " The boy giggled and said politely.
"So cute! As you are pleasing to my eyes, I will forget about you pointing a knife at us." Rose said with a wide smile.
"Boy, why are you alone in this dangerous forest? Where is your village?" Joey asked him.
Xiao Feng scratched his head and replied, "Heehee! I skipped out here from my village. Big brother, my village is in that direction." He pointed deeper inside the forest.
"Alright, we will take you there," Joey said.
Then the three walked toward the direction 0f Xiao Feng's village.
On the way, they met many beasts ranging from lvl 5 to lvl 7. Joey killed some of them that attacked them.
Joey took out the palace robe he wore when he was 12 from his space ring and gave it to Xiao Feng.
The boy happily put them on.
"Xiao Feng, you look very lovely. Let me put this on." Rose praised him and took out a pair of earrings, gold-neck chain. Then she put them all on him.
"Wow! Xiao Feng, it suits you the most. " Rose exclaimed and made thumps up at him.
Xiao Feng smiled from air to air.
"Xiao Feng, can you tell us more about your village?" Joey asked.
"Brother Joey, my village is called the Undying village. My granny is the chieftess of the village. She is a healer. One hundred fifty people are living there. During the day, my uncles hunt beasts while the aunties grow rice and vegetables inside the village. " Xiao Feng continued telling them all the story of the Undying Village.
"Healer! Xiao Feng, what do your granny do?" Joey asked.
"Sometimes, some of my uncles came back with serious injuries. Even some of them come back without a leg or a hand. But, my granny could heal all of them completely. Oh! One time I saw my granny make a small golden ball and feed on my second uncle who lost both of his legs. After eating that small golden ball, both of his legs started to grow again. " Xiao Feng told them.
"She was so cool! From that day onward, I have decided to become a healer like her. " He clenched his fists and shouted at the sky.
"So, they call alchemy a healer here," Joey murmured.
Soon they reached a big river.
"Wait! I will bring the boat." Xiao Feng said. He walked toward a bush and came back carrying a boat. He put it on the river. And they started sailing down the stream.
"Xiao Feng, do you often skip out from your village?" Joey asked.
Xiao Feng nodded.
"Don't your granny warn you to never go out in the forest alone?" Rose asked this time.
"Umm! But, staying inside the village is so boring. I like to come out to the forest and play with those beasts." Xiao Feng replied.
"Xiao Feng, do you live alone with your granny? What about your mother and father?" Rose asked.
Suddenly, Xiao Feng looked down and replied with a crunchy voice, "My ma, pa,.... I have never seen them before. When I asked about them, my granny told me that they went out searching for a clan and someday they would return. "
Rose fondled his hair and said lovingly, "Xiao Feng, don't worry. You will meet them someday. "
