When Tong Xinyao heard that Tang Hao was going to the Stygian Lake because he was going to the Stygian Lake, she paused a little and said, "The legends about the two peerless powerhouses are just legends, and no one can confirm that they are true. ”

"No wind, no waves." Tang Hao said.

"But after all, no one has seen any relics before." Tong Xinyao said.

"Just because no one has seen any relics before doesn't mean I can't find them." Tang Hao said.

Tong Xinyao saw that Tang Hao was so resolute, she understood that it was in vain for her to say anything, she could only say: "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

"No, you take care of Zhu Cuiyuan." Tang Hao said.

"You're going with the falling moon?"

"And the Kraken."

Tong Xinyao understands that the Kraken and Luoyue are indeed more suitable for adventures with Tang Hao, and the cooperation between them is very tacit, and they can deal with things better. She nodded and said, "What else do you need me to do to protect Zhu Cuiyuan?" ”

"Nope."

"Don't worry."

"Hmm."

"I'll leave tomorrow morning." Tang Hao said.

"I'm in a hurry. Let's do a little more preparation. Tong Xinyao said.

Tang Hao shook his head and said, "No need, it's all ready." ”

"When are you going to go to Stygian Lake?" Tong Xinyao asked puzzled.

"Half an hour ago."

Tong Xinyao was speechless for a moment, and she said, "Okay." ”

"Well, I'll leave quietly tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then I won't send you." Tong Xinyao understood that Tang Hao didn't want people to know that he had left Zhu Cuiyuan.

Tang Hao left, but Tong Xinyao couldn't sleep. She didn't understand Tang Hao's going to the Stygian Lake. According to Tang Hao's style of acting, he shouldn't do such a nihilistic thing. But he did it anyway, and he was so resolute, who told Tang Hao about this legend?

The next day, Tang Hao quietly left Zhu Cuiyuan with Luoyue and the Siren.

Although five thousand miles is far away, it is not far for the current Tang Hao, Luoyue and Kraken. Even if they don't go all out, it won't take a day.

According to the road map prepared in advance, before it was dark, the three of them came to the Stygian Lake.

It is said to be a lake, but it is actually much larger than a lake in the traditional sense, and you can't see where the edge of the lake is, but only a vast ocean. It feels like this is not a lake at all, but an endless ocean.

The lake is very quiet, there are not a single pedestrian, and there are no fishing boats in the lake.

Tang Hao felt a little strange, it stands to reason that such a big lake, there should be a fishing village by this lake, and there should be fishing boats in the lake.

"Boss, there's weirdness here." The Kraken said.

"Well, let's see if we can find someone to ask about the situation." Tang Hao said.

"Okay."

"We'll split up and find someone, and in half an hour, we'll meet here." Tang Hao said.

"Okay."

So, the three of them dispersed and went their separate ways to find someone.

Half an hour later, the three of them were back here.

The Kraken said, "I didn't see anyone. ”

"Me too." Falling Moon said.

"Me too."

Luoyue said: "More than a hundred miles away from here, there is a fishing village, but there is no one in the village anymore. ”

"I don't even see the fishing village."

"I also saw a fishing village, and there was no one in it." Tang Hao said.

The three of them were silent, this neighborhood was so weird, they definitely couldn't rush in.

"How far is the nearest town from here?" Tang Hao said.

"I have already checked when I came, and five hundred miles away, there is a town called Huangliang Town." The Kraken said.

"Okay, go to Huangliang Town." Tang Hao said.

"Okay."

So, the three of them left the Stygian Lake and went straight to Huangliang Town.

At the speed of three people, five hundred miles is nothing at all. In less than an hour, the three of them arrived at this Huangliang Town.

Although it is a town, it is too far from the prosperity of Hantong Town. It wasn't late at night, there weren't many lights in the town, and it was hard to see people on the streets.

After the three of them entered the town, they found an inn and walked in.

The listless shopkeeper was looking at the ledger, and judging by his expression, business should be very bad.

"Shopkeeper, stay in the store."

Tang Hao walked to the counter and patted the counter gently.

At this time, the shopkeeper saw someone coming, and he immediately showed a smile: "Three young masters, please take a seat." ”

"Don't sit down, take us to the guest room." Tang Hao said.

"We have three ......."

"To be the best." Tang Hao interrupted the shopkeeper's introduction.

"Yes, young master, please come with me."

The shopkeeper saw that he had met a rich man, and immediately led the way.

Tang Hao and the three of them followed the shopkeeper upstairs, and when they arrived at the door of a guest room on the second floor, the shopkeeper pushed the door open: "This is a good guest room here." ”

Tang Hao looked at it and said, "I want three." ”

"There are only two like this, and one is a little worse, which is also very good." The shopkeeper said.

"Okay."

"Okay, come with me." The shopkeeper said.

"No, I have something to ask you." Tang Hao said and walked into the large guest room.

"Okay, young master, may you ask." The shopkeeper followed Tang Hao into the guest room.

Falling Moon and the Kraken followed into the guest room, they had already sensed that there were no other guests in the inn except for the three of them.

Tang Hao sat down, the Kraken and Luoyue also sat down, and the shopkeeper immediately poured tea for the three of them.

"We want to go to the Stygian Lake, you can tell us about the Stygian Lake." Tang Hao said.

"Stygian Lake! It's not a fun place. The shopkeeper's expression immediately became stern.

"I've heard it's a very mysterious and fun place." Tang Hao said with a smile.

The shopkeeper immediately said, "No, it has now become synonymous with death, and many people have gone and never returned." And now there seem to be monsters in the lake, and even fishermen don't dare to go down to the lake to fish. ”

"What kind of monster?" Tang Hao asked.

"It is said to be very powerful, at least it is a yellow-level demon beast. The Huang family and the Liang family in the town once joined forces to hunt this demon beast, but the patriarchs of the two families were eaten by the demon beast, and the martial arts cultivators who went with them also died. ”

"The whole army is annihilated." Tang Hao said.

"Yes, the Huang family and the Liang family have already reported to Li Tangzhou, hoping that the two major families of Li Tangzhou can send people to hunt the demon beasts in the lake. But there doesn't seem to be anything more. The shopkeeper said.

"This place is under the control of Li Tangzhou?" Tang Hao said.

"Yes, the closest to us here is Li Tangzhou, about two thousand miles." The shopkeeper said.

Tang Hao was silent for a moment and said, "Except for the two major families in this town, has anyone seen the demon beasts in the lake?" ”

"I think some fishermen have seen it." The shopkeeper replied.

"Can you help me find the fishermen who have seen the monsters?" Tang Hao said and took out five Chiyuan stones.

The shopkeeper saw that it was not a small piece of red source stone used by ordinary people, but a large piece of red source stone of higher value. Such a piece of red source stone is equivalent to a hundred small red source stones, and he only needs thirty small red source stones for one night in this guest room. That is to say, if you stay in these three rooms for one night, there will be a maximum of ninety small pieces of red source stones, and you won't need a large piece of red source stones. And this young master took out five large pieces of red source stone at once, which is a big deal. Because he didn't believe that anyone would stay in this desolate Huangliang town for five days.

"You go and help me find the fishermen who have seen the monsters, this is equivalent to the room fee for this day, and if I live again tomorrow, I will give another money." Tang Hao said.

"Okay." Hearing the young master's explanation, the shopkeeper's heart was overjoyed, and he immediately took the Wuxue Chiyuan Stone and said, "Don't worry, young master, I will definitely help you find the fishermen who have seen the demon beasts." ”

Tang Hao said very casually: "Shopkeeper, I'm a martial arts cultivator, don't lie to me." ”

"Young master, don't worry, how dare I lie to you." The shopkeeper immediately smiled and assured.

"Go ahead, the sooner the better." Tang Hao said.

"Yes, young master, I'll go find someone." The shopkeeper went out with a look of surprise.

Tang Hao and the three of them were not tired, and they didn't want to rest, so they all stayed in this room and drank tea.

After about an hour, the shopkeeper came with a man in his fifties.

"Young master, his name is Li Datong, he used to be a fisherman in the Stygian Lake, and he has seen demon beasts." The shopkeeper said to Tang Hao.

"What does that monster look like?" Tang Hao looked at Li Datong and said.

"It's big, big, about the size of ten fishing boats, and its mouth is so big that it can swallow a fishing boat in one bite." The fisherman named Li Datong replied.

When Tang Hao heard this, he frowned, and said coldly: "Shopkeeper, you dare to lie to me!" ”

"Young master, I don't dare to lie to you, he has really seen demon beasts." The shopkeeper immediately panicked.

Tang Hao looked at Li Datong and said coldly, "Who did you listen to?" ”

The fisherman named Li Datong had a look of fear on his face and whispered, "I listened to my son. ”

"Your son has seen a monster?"

"Yes, he's the only one who's ever seen the Demon Beast of the Stygian Lake."

"Where's your son?" Tang Hao asked.

"My son works in a pharmacy and just followed the boss to buy goods, and he is not at home."

"When will he be back?" Tang Hao asked.

"Tomorrow afternoon."

"Bring your son to me tomorrow afternoon." Tang Hao said and took out a piece of Chiyuan Stone and handed it to Li Datong.

Li Datong saw that it was a large piece of Chiyuan Stone, his eyes immediately widened, and he asked, "Young Master, is this for me?" ”

"Yes, for you, bring your son over tomorrow." Tang Hao said.

"Yes, young master, I will definitely bring my son over to see the young master tomorrow." Li Datong said with a thousand thanks.

Tang Hao glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Go ahead." ”

"Yes, young master, I'm sorry young master, I didn't mean to lie to you." The shopkeeper immediately admitted his mistake.

"Well, go get us some good tea." Tang Hao said.

"Yes, young master, I'll go right away." The shopkeeper immediately said.

"Young master, I'll go first."

"Go ahead."

So, the shopkeeper and Li Datong left.

Luoyue said with some disappointment: "I don't think his son may have really seen the demon beast. ”
