There was no movement in the Hua Sect for the rest of the day. All the cultivators were sorting out supplies and distributing the belongings of the dead cultivators. And not only the cultivators who participated in the battle, but even those who were controlled by Longtan and backstabbed the cultivators around them in the beginning also gained some benefits to a greater or lesser extent.
It has to be said that the independent cultivators still have quite a few good things in their hands. Anyway, the independent cultivators who got the things all had smiles on their faces. Some people even said that even if they didn’t gain anything in the ruins, they were already very satisfied with these things.
The dead cultivators still had some good things in their hands. According to Sixth Senior Sister Bai Jie's idea, those really good things were not going to be distributed, but Bai Jie finally decided to distribute a small part of those things. As for who they would be distributed to, of course it would be those who had contributed the most in the previous battle.
The wandering cultivators went back to rest happily, leaving only the people from Hua Sect to pack up the supplies they had collected. The most numerous of these were the things left over from Haimen Sect. Although there were no rare treasures or the like, there were a wide variety of elixirs that were very complete. Whether it was fasting pills for low-level cultivators or healing pills for recovering from injuries, or pills that could improve one's cultivation and pills that allowed oneself to burst out instantly, the people from Haimen Sect left behind quite a few. Unfortunately, they had not used these pills when fighting the White Green Snake Clan before, and now they have benefited the Hua Sect instead.
After packing up everything, the camp gradually became quiet. The monks on night patrol kept taking turns until the next morning, when the people of Hua Zong packed up their tents and left.
Zeng Wenyu and Longtan stood up from their hiding place after the people of Hua Zong left for a distance. When Longtan stood up, his clothes were already frozen. As for Zeng Wenyu? He had Su Qing in his body, so this little temperature couldn't affect him at all. But in order not to arouse Longtan's suspicion, he only maintained his own body temperature, so when he stood up, his clothes were also frozen.
"Huh... they finally left. If they hadn't left, I would have had to use my cultivation to resist the cold here." Long Tan stood up and stomped his feet hard. "Luckily they left. By the way, are you okay?"
Zeng Wenyu pretended to be a little stiff, and he stamped his feet hard, pretending to shake off the ice on his body: "It's okay, but it's just a little later, I won't be able to hold on anymore."
"How about it? Follow now? Or wait a while?"
"Follow us. Although the Hua Clan's people are numerous and don't move very quickly, we still need to find a place to hide after they set up camp. We can't hide in the open air like we did yesterday. The nights here are indeed a bit cold."
"That's right. Let's go. We should just stay far away. But following behind them is not without its benefits. At least we can avoid the swamp and danger."
Zeng Wenyu nodded, and the two of them followed the people from Hua Sect from a distance, following the traces left by the cultivators from Hua Sect.
Zeng Wenyu took out some dried meat from the storage bag in his arms and handed it to Long Tan: "Do you want to eat it? With your muscles, you still need to eat a lot of meat, right?"
Long Tan did not take the dried meat from Zeng Wenyu. He took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, uncorked it and took out two pills: "I don't need to eat those. This is a pill I specially asked someone to refine for me. Would you like one? I promise that if you eat it with me for a few days, you will be as muscular as me."
"Oh..." Zeng Wenyu looked at the pill in Longtan's hand, "Technology and ruthless work?"
"what?"
"Nothing, I won't eat it, I'll just take my pills."
Seeing that Longtan's body swelled up after swallowing the two pills, Zeng Wenyu's eyes twitched and he kept chewing dry meat to hide his desire to complain.
For a whole day, neither Hua Zong nor they had walked out of the grassland. Although this was partly due to the swamp, Hua Zong's speed of progress was indeed too slow.
"It looks like they are going to set up camp here today. Let's find a place to rest."
Zeng Wenyu and Long Tan lay in the grass and looked at the Huazong monks who were busy setting up tents in front of them. They knew that this was the end of their journey today.
"Okay, one of us will go find a place, and the other one will stay here to watch. You go find the place or should I go?"
"I'll go. With your size, it's too easy to be discovered if you move around. Also, when I came here just now, I seemed to see a cave entrance. I wonder if it's a crypt. I'll go look for it. If it is, we'll stay there tonight."
"Then go and come back quickly."
Zeng Wenyu did not go to Hua Zong. He really went in the direction of the cave entrance and found the entrance in a few minutes.
Rather than saying it was a cave entrance, it was more like a small mound on the grassland, but it was hollowed out by some monster and turned into a cave. After Zeng Wenyu enlarged the cave entrance and walked in, he found that the space inside was much larger than outside, and it was more than enough to accommodate him and Longtan.
When we returned to Longtan, Hua Zong had already set up the camp, and white smoke was rising from the burning bonfire.
"Let's go, that place is pretty good. At least it's more than enough for the two of us to rest inside, and it's not far from here. I'll take you there first, and we can take turns to monitor them at night."
Longtan followed Zeng Wenyu over, and the two rested in the dungeon for a while. Finally, Longtan said that he would go out to monitor first. Zeng Wenyu did not refuse and rested against the earth wall in the dungeon.
Longtan came back in the second half of the night, and Zeng Wenyu waited until dawn. When he saw Hua Zong start to pack up, he went back to call Longtan over, and the two continued to follow Hua Zong.
After walking for two days, they finally followed the people from Hua Zong out of the swamp. In front of them was a very huge lake. The lake was calm without even a ripple.
The people of Hua Zong did not jump into the water rashly. Instead, they took out several large boats from somewhere and placed them on the water. Everyone got on the boats and paddled, heading towards the depths of the lake.
Zeng Wenyu and Long Tan also came to the lake and looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched the large ships leaving in the distance.
"Lontan, do you have a boat?"
"Neither did you?"
"Who would have thought that we would have to cross such a big lake?"
"Then...are we going to get lost here?"
"It's not like we'll lose him. All we can do now is to make a boat. I remember there seemed to be a few huge trees when we came here just now. It shouldn't be difficult to cut down one and make a boat that can accommodate you and me."
"Why don't you leave now?!"
