Chapter 139 Knowing that there are tigers on the mountain, I prefer to go to the mountain

   "The so-called Ghost Gate is actually a canyon, but this canyon is much smaller than Death Valley, only eight kilometers long."

  Jing Shizhen introduced: "There is fog in the canyon all the year round, and the inside is shrouded in fog all the year round, making it difficult to see the road, and there are mostly steep cliffs beside the canyon, and if you are not careful, you will fall into it.

   In addition, there are many wild animals in this place, and it is a gathering area for wild leopards. After entering, they are likely to be attacked, so tourists are prohibited from entering. "

   "Can we go in?" Su Xiaofan asked.

   "Nonsense, why can't I go in and talk so much?"

  Jing Shizhen said angrily: "As long as you are a cultivator, you can enter all restricted areas at will, but the first is life or death, and the second is that you have to pay tolls when you come out..."

  The official blockade of the restricted area is only for ordinary people, but it is open to practitioners.

   It's just that the official does not guarantee the safety of the entrants. After entering the restricted area, it is life and death.

   Another point is that the officials outside the restricted area will charge a fee. This fee is not money, but the harvest of the cultivator in the restricted area.

  If there is no harvest, forget it. As long as there is harvest, you must pay 10% to the official.

   "Master, is the harvest in the restricted area great?"

  Hearing this, Su Xiaofan interjected and asked.

  When he was in Shuangmen Village, Su Xiaofan didn't seem to have gained anything except the giant python inner alchemy and flesh and blood.

   Not really, Su Xiaofan also made dozens of catties of dried chrysanthemum tea, the effect of reducing fire is very good, until now Su Xiaofan is still drinking it.

   "Of course, although the restricted area is not suitable for human survival, it is a paradise for animals and plants."

  Jing Shizhen nodded, and said: "In some space cracks, you can even see medicinal materials that are thousands of years old, which are very useful for cultivation.

   There are also some mines that are infiltrated by that kind of energy, which will produce a mutated mineral that can be used as a refiner. Your flying sword before is likely to be refined with minerals in the restricted area. "

   "When I broke through some time ago, before taking the inner alchemy, I also took some drugs to assist the breakthrough, and they were all found from the restricted area."

  Jing Shizhen sighed: "Space cracks appeared on the earth, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, but the things inside are all treasures..."

   "Master, it shouldn't be so, it's not as exaggerated as you said."

  Su Xiaofan shook his head, and said, "Shuangmen Village is also a place where space cracks exist. Just a little chrysanthemum tea can't be called a treasure."

   It's not that Su Xiaofan doesn't believe Jing Shizhen's words, but he has always believed that what he sees is what he hears. In order to prove that there are no ghosts in this world, he almost ran all over Mangshan Mountain, but he didn't see a single ghost.

   "You know what a fart, how long has the space crack in Shuangmen Village existed, it's not even considered a restricted area."

  Jing Shizhen gave Su Xiaofan a squinting look, "Don't think that you have seen space cracks just because you have been to Shuangmen Village. The real space covered by space cracks is much bigger than you imagined!"

   "The front and back of Shuangmen Village, including the hilltop, is only about one square kilometer, but do you know how much land is occupied by Guimenguan?"

   "I don't know." Su Xiaofan shook his head.

   "One hundred square kilometers!"

  Jing Shizhen said: "The entire area of ​​one hundred square kilometers is covered by the air machine seeping from the space crack.

   Within the range of one hundred square kilometers, an ecological circle has been formed. Not only plants, but also animals in this ecological circle have undergone some changes! "

  Listening to Jing Shizhen's narration, Su Xiaofan's face gradually became serious.

   "Although many animals have not yet evolved into mutated creatures, they are much stronger than the creatures outside.

  A wolf inside can kill a tiger outside, and a leopard there can kill a lion on the grassland, and these are just ordinary animals! "

   "What about the extraordinary creature?"

  Su Xiaofan asked: "How many extraordinary creatures are there usually in a general space crack?"

   "It's hard to say, generally there are at least two, but a space crack that can be called a restricted area must have at least four or more extraordinary creatures."

  Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan with a smile that was not a smile, and said: "You understand now, Shuangmen Village was formed in a very short period of time, it is not considered a restricted area at all, and even the officials don't pay much attention to it.

  Maybe it will take several decades for the forest trees there to be eroded and mutated by the energy infiltrated by the cracks in the space before something of value will appear, and it is very likely that extraordinary creatures will appear again. "

   "Can extraordinary creatures still appear?"

  Su Xiaofan thought for a while, then nodded, "I understand, extraordinary creatures evolve and mutate because of the energy in the restricted area. As long as there is that kind of energy, all creatures living in it have a chance."

   "Exactly!"

  Jing Shizhen raised her right hand and snapped her fingers, "The official originally wanted to keep Shuangmen Village free for a few years, but they didn't do a thorough investigation and we missed it."

  Su Xiaofan has to admit that although he is also handsome, in front of women, he is definitely not as attractive as Master, an old handsome guy. You can tell by the look in Aunt Mei's eyes next to him.

   "Are there other restricted areas? Master, please continue."

  Su Xiaofan wanted to make a choice to see which restricted area was more appropriate to enter.

   "In our country, there are five relatively large restricted areas."

  Jing Shizhen said: "There are two in Dajiang Province. The one in the Ajin Mountains is not garrisoned, but the restricted area in Luobo is garrisoned..."

  Hearing Master's explanation, pictures appeared in Su Xiaofan's mind, and he had a more intuitive understanding of the restricted area.

  The Luobo restricted area covers an area of ​​more than 900 kilometers. It is considered the largest restricted area in China. Ordinary people who enter it are basically close to death.

  In the early years, the authorities conducted some weapon experiments there, in fact, they also wanted to see if the space crack could be destroyed with modern technology.

  However, the final result was that the experiment was successful, the space cracks still existed, and many extraordinary creatures were born.

   Later, the officials were afraid of problems, so they stopped the experiment.

  Outsiders may think that there is a desert. In fact, the desert is true, but there are still many creatures.

   On the outskirts of the restricted area, there are official people stationed, lest those so-called explorers enter and die in vain.

  Of course, the most important reason for stationing is to prevent the extraordinary creatures in the restricted area from coming out, and the second is to charge the fees for cultivators entering the restricted area.

   "Such a large area, how to garrison and interrogate?" Hearing this place, Su Xiaofan asked in puzzlement.

   "The extraordinary creatures in the restricted area of ​​Luobo divide it into several areas.

  The area with extraordinary creatures is very dangerous. Even if a practitioner enters, the chance of coming out alive is not high.

  The official set up the station near the safe passage, so that people who enter and exit will basically not be missed. "

   What Jing Shizhen said next was the death zone, that is, the Death Valley of Kunlun Mountains. The area of ​​Death Valley is not small, about 120 kilometers.

  The restricted area of ​​death is a special one of the five restricted areas in China. There are lightning and thunder all year round, and there are very few creatures inside.

   But at the same time, it is very dangerous for cultivators to go there. It is nonsense to say that manpower can conquer the sky. God will kill people when a thunder and lightning strikes.

  So the government didn’t send people outside the death penalty area. Just like its name, most of the people who entered died, and only a few people could come out alive.

  As for the Death Valley, Jing Shizhen’s so-called visit means walking around the periphery, but he dare not really enter the valley.

  In addition to the ghost gate restricted area, Luobo restricted area and death restricted area, the fourth restricted area is called the devil restricted area.

  Death Valley used to be called the Devil's Valley, but in order to distinguish it from the devil's restricted area, it was called the death restricted area.

   The devil's restricted area is located in Daxi Province, which is a water restricted area.

  Like the restricted area of ​​the Bermuda Triangle abroad, this place in Atlantis is also a strange and mysterious waters.

  In the past 100 years, more than 200 ships have disappeared in the devil's restricted area, and thousands of people have disappeared.

   There are also ordinary people who survived, but they were eroded by the energy of the forbidden zone, and even if they escaped, they would become crazy. Over time, that piece of water was called the devil's forbidden zone, and few ships dared to pass there.

  The last relatively large restricted area is called Qingcheng restricted area.

  As the name suggests, the Qingcheng Forbidden Area is located on the back mountain of Qingcheng. It was originally a place to seek secluded places to visit, but since the end of Ming Dynasty, a space crack appeared there, enclosing the mountains stretching for more than 100 miles.

  Qingcheng restricted area is also the place with the most abundant materials among the five restricted areas, where medicinal materials and minerals are very common.

  The supernatural beings occupying the restricted area of ​​Qingcheng are relatively less ferocious in character, and the death rate of cultivators is not very high, so it is also the favorite place for cultivators to go.

  The government also pays the most attention to the Qingcheng restricted area. Several access channels have been set up there. Most of the resources collected by the official every year are contributed by the Qingcheng restricted area.

  In addition to these five restricted areas, there are still some restricted areas in China, but they are either small in scale, or difficult to survive like the forbidden area in the sky. Jing Shizhen just mentioned it roughly and took it there.

   "If you want to practice actual combat, the ghost gate restricted area is actually the most suitable." After explaining the five restricted areas to Su Xiaofan, Jing Shizhen suggested to Su Xiaofan.

   "Why not Qingcheng restricted area?"

  Su Xiaofan looked at Master in surprise, because according to Master's introduction, Qingcheng Forbidden Zone is the most suitable place.

   "Qingcheng restricted area is not allowed."

  Jing Shizhen shook his head and said: "You can injure the creatures inside, but you can't kill them, otherwise it will be very troublesome.

   With your cultivation base, if you encounter creatures that have not yet reached the extraordinary level, in a life-and-death battle, if you can't keep your hand, you will kill the opponent, so that place is not suitable. "

  Besides the reason Jing Shizhen said, there is another reason he didn’t say, that is, most of the restricted areas in Qingcheng are practiced by rookies.

   After hundreds of years, almost all the good things in the Qingcheng forbidden area have been picked. Now, all cultivators with higher cultivation bases will not go there again.

  Of course, Jing Shizhen has a high vision, and the good things he thinks about can at least be used by practitioners who have perfected the Great Zhou Tian.

  The cultivators under the Great Zhou Dynasty can still find a lot of resources suitable for them in the Qingcheng restricted area, so it attracts a steady stream of middle and low-level cultivators to go to practice.

"I see."

  Su Xiaofan nodded, and suddenly asked: "Master, is it snowing in the restricted area of ​​the ghost gate?"

"Snowing."

  Jing Shizhen thought for a while, and said, "Except for the death penalty zone, it has snowed in several forbidden zones in the northwest this month, but with your and my cultivation base, snowing is fine."

  Since she was promoted, Jing Shizhen has been consolidating her cultivation and has never been to the restricted area. Hearing Su Xiaofan mention it now, she is very excited.

   "Although the name of the Ghost Gate Restricted Area is ugly, the snow scenery is still good, especially now, the clouds and fog are much less, and most of the scenery can be seen."

   "And there are quite a few extraordinary creatures in the restricted area of ​​the ghost gate. Apart from a few particularly strong ones, there are also a few relatively weak ones. We still have a chance if we go."

  Jing Shizhen tends to go to the restricted area of ​​the ghost gate, because he is relatively familiar with that place, and there is a chance to kill extraordinary creatures.

   "Well, I'm going to the death zone!" Su Xiaofan said with a very firm tone.

   "Okay, go die...what?"

  Jing Shizhen echoed, and suddenly realized, "Isn't it the restricted area of ​​the ghost gate?"

   "Master, what are you going to do in the restricted area of ​​the ghost gate now? It's so icy and snowy that you can't even pick medicinal herbs."

  Su Xiaofan said: "We should go to the death penalty zone. Few people go there. There must be a lot of good things in the penalty zone, and no one collects taxes when they bring them out. It must be the most suitable death zone."

   "But the death zone is the most dangerous!"

  Jing Shizhen said angrily: "The five restricted areas are the most mysterious death area, and the death rate is also the highest, because no one can go deep inside. Xiaofan, what are your plans?"

  Jing Shizhen knows that this disciple of hers is not only amazingly lucky, but also a master who doesn't see rabbits or scatter eagles, and has never suffered a loss in business.

  So Jing Shizhen feels that Su Xiaofan must have his purpose in choosing the death penalty area to practice combat experience.

   "Dangerous can better exercise my actual combat experience, I must have the determination to know that there are tigers in the mountains, and go to the mountains!"

  Su Xiaofan said with a serious face: "I don't experience life and death, I feel that it is difficult for me to make a breakthrough. Master, I have decided to go to the death penalty area. If you don't go, Duobao and I can go."

  What a novelty, Su Xiaofan wanted to go to the death penalty area, naturally for the sake of rare meteorites, after listening to Master's introduction to several major forbidden areas, Su Xiaofan analyzed it in his heart.

  Both the Luobo Restricted Area and the Guimen Restricted Area are snowing, and it is difficult to find meteorites. These two places are suitable for summer, and you may be able to search for them.

  The forbidden area of ​​the devil is a body of water, unless Su Xiaofan can turn into a fish and go to the bottom of the lake to look for it, the hope of finding the meteorite is basically zero.

  As for the forbidden zone in Qingcheng, in Su Xiaofan's memory, it is not a frequent area where meteorites fall, so there is no need to go there to touch the probability.

  Thus, after much deliberation, the most suitable place is the death penalty zone, which is evergreen all year round and falls within the range of meteorites. It must be able to feed the repair system once.

   "Master, Aunt Mei needs to be watched by others in her practice, or you should not go."

  Su Xiaofan didn't intend to take Master with him, he himself rushed to say that he would go, Su Xiaofan wished that he would retreat now.

   "I don't need your master to worry about it. My cultivation base has already stabilized, and nothing will happen if I practice myself."

  Aunt Mei said from the side that she and Brother Jing were able to come to this day because they knew the general situation and knew how to advance and retreat, and they never interfered with Jing Shizhen's work.

   "Well, you don't need me to watch over your Aunt Mei's cultivation."

  Seeing Su Xiaofan's resolute attitude, Jing Shizhen began to think in her heart, "It's okay to go to the death penalty area. I didn't go in back then, so I was a little curious."

  With Jing Shizhen's current cultivation level, he can enter the general restricted area, and it is not easy for Jing Shizhen to kill extraordinary creatures, but similarly, it is also difficult for extraordinary creatures to kill him.

  So the death zone is not as dangerous as imagined, maybe as Su Xiaofan said, some good things can be made out of it.

   "Our giant python inner armor has the effect of isolating lightning, and it is not impossible to go to the death penalty zone."

  Jing Shizhen thought of the function of the inner armor of the giant python. With the inner armor for protection, it can increase the chance of winning by 10% in the environment like Death Valley. Jing Shizhen was a little moved immediately.

   "Master, then I will prepare!"

  Su Xiaofan said: "Let's drive, and I'll take Duobao with me. In addition, I know a tour guide. He used to be a herdsman near Death Valley. Let him guide us later."

   "Ordinary people are absolutely not allowed to enter."

  Jing Shizhen said solemnly: "Death Valley has appeared for hundreds of years, and the energy seeping out from the cracks in the space is very strong, and ordinary people can't bear it."

  Places that can be called restricted areas are all places where ordinary people will die if they set foot on them, and places like Shuangmen Village, if ordinary people go in for a short time, they will only get seriously ill when they come out, and their lives are safe.

   "I'll just ask Batur to wait outside, and the two of us will enter the valley."

  Su Xiaofan had long thought that after Batur took them to the place, he would help him look after the vehicle outside the valley.

   "Master, is there anything else to prepare?"

  Su Xiaofan still respects the old driver very much. A high cultivation level does not mean that he can live long in the restricted area.

  Master has been to so many restricted areas and it’s all right, not to mention his rich experience, no matter how bad he is, he’s a lucky baby, so he must keep up.

   "Bring the flying sword and the magic weapon for body protection, and you can save some body protection essence at that time."

  Jing Shizhen thought for a while, and said, "Let's go there a few days later, and I'll make some python leather arm guards and helmets, so that they can protect against lightning strikes in all directions."

   Facing the death penalty zone, Jing Shizhen didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, because there are countless cultivators who have fallen there over the years, and one of them is a master who has broken through to the top of the three flowers.

  If Su Xiaofan hadn't insisted on going, Jing Shizhen really didn't want to step on that mine right now.
