Black Wind Village was located 80 miles west of Qingyou County. Because the nearby mountains often had black Miasma drifting out with the wind, it was known as Black Wind.
As for the surrounding mountains, because of the occasional gust of black wind, they were called the Black Wind Mountain Range.
Because he had stopped at Clear Serenity County last night and knew of the group's itinerary, he had sent someone to Black Wind Village to inform the village head that he was ready to be welcomed.
When everyone reached the village, they saw the village chief of Black Wind Village waiting for them at the entrance.
Everyone stopped their carriages and exchanged a few words. The village head heard that they were going to the depths of the mountains to find a spring, so he asked them to find an old ranger who had the most experience and was familiar with the surrounding mountains.
”Are you going to look for the Yin Dragon Pool?”
The old ranger's face turned pale with fright when he heard Jiang Yixin's description.
However, when Jiang Yixin saw the old ranger's reaction, she immediately became excited, ”Oh, you know that place?”
”I know, but mortals are not allowed to go there!” The old ranger shivered and said, ”The miasma over there is so thick that not a single blade of grass can grow within a hundred zhang.”
”If an ordinary person comes close to the Yin Dragon Pool, their body would be affected by Yin Qi. They would be weakened for at least half a month, and their body would be seriously ill for at least half a year. Especially the Yin Dragon Pool, if you take a sip of it, you will die! ”
”As for the reason for all of this, it is said that a demon resides in the depths of the pond!”
”Demons?” Huang Shaotian and the others immediately laughed: ”Hahaha, what age is it now, a monster?”
”Old man!” Do you know that all of the great generals of our Tang have the ability to defeat ten thousand men? It was easy for them to split the mountain! If there really were any demons, they would've been killed long ago to sacrifice to the heavens, then be presented to His Majesty for a reward! ”
”That's right, old man. If you dare not go, your son's acres of land will be taken away as the price for refusing!” Think about it for yourself. ” A young master who knew the old ranger's family situation from the village head sneered and said.
