Chapter 39 The Northern Drought Locust Plague 6
When Chu Han and the others arrived at the location, they found a big snake, the big snake had one tail and two bodies, stretched several meters, it opened its bloody mouth and showed its fangs, and was surrounded by dozens of people in the center. The serpent is invulnerable, and no matter how much fire or guns are used by those people, they will not be able to hurt it in the slightest.
A few people looked good at martial arts, and they went up to carry them with their swords, but they were all knocked to the ground.
Qianxi immediately activated the rune array, and in an instant, countless rune papers flew towards the two-body big snake, and then trapped the big snake in it.
Then, Shen Hao and Zhi Qiu pushed the long sword behind them and rose up, and in an instant, the two long swords turned into dozens and flew towards the twin snake.
Xuan Ming and Jiang Ruo jumped up, holding the lightning sword and stabbing at the twin snakes.
The serpent spat water with one body and fire with the other, forcing the crowd back.
In the end, Chu Han used the secret technique of freezing, using the water spit out by the big snake to freeze the big snake, and then swung his sword to cut it away, and the twin big snakes immediately turned into countless pieces and fell to the ground.
"Who are you, how did you get to my Long family's territory?" After the big snake was eliminated, everyone reacted that these people were not the Long family at all.
Qian Xi introduced Chu Han and said, "This is the head of the Ghost Valley of our Tianxuan faction, and I want to see your Long family at the helm if I have something." ”
When everyone heard Qianxi say this, they were puzzled, "We have heard of Tianmen and Xuanmen, but we have never heard of the head of this ghost valley, we have no time to see you at the helm, I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being polite." "Just now it was because Chu Han and the others helped them eliminate the two-body big snake that they were so polite, otherwise if they were ordinary people, they would have already done it.
Seeing the posture of them coming around, Zou Hao said impatiently: "Why are you Long family so unreasonable, we are here to see you at the helm." ”
"As I said earlier, we don't have time to see you at the helm, and if we don't leave now, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave. ”
Zou Hao was very familiar with this person's voice, as if he had heard it somewhere, and suddenly remembered that he was the dragon steward who had traded with the mine manager before.
Although he guessed his identity, there were originally only a few dozen people in this place, but now there is such a big movement in the village, and hundreds of people have gathered around.
Seeing hundreds of people surrounding them with guys, Zou Hao was a little stunned and took a few steps back.
"Brother Chu Han hasn't seen you for many years, don't come to harm!" At this time, an old lady appeared in front of everyone on crutches and supported by two disciples.
This old woman has gray hair and is on a dragon's head. Although he has reached his old age, he is full of energy. The words are sonorous and powerful, and they are full of confidence.
When the disciples of the Long family saw this old woman appear, they all bowed their hands and saluted, "Old lady." ”
Chu Han also had a different look when he saw this old lady, and he couldn't remember when he had seen it. Seeing Chu Han's dazed face, the old lady said again: "I want to join forces to enter the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang back then, but now the Chu Han brothers are still in their prime, and I am already in the twilight." ”
Lao Taijun's words aroused Chu Han's hard recollection, at that time, except for a few disciples of the Long family who were guarding outside the cave, the woman who entered the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang and came out again was only Long Yi. "You're Long Yi?"
"Everybody's gone. As soon as the old lady's words came out, the hundreds of people did not dare to disobey and left one after another. Afterwards, the old lady continued to say to Chu Han: "Brother Chu finally remembered me, these should be the brothers of Tianmen and Xuanmen, please come into the house and talk." ”
Everyone followed the old lady to the house, this village looks like an ancient village cottage outside, but the interior decoration pattern is modern style, and many things are intelligent.
"The old man once said that Brother Chu Han was not an ordinary person, and when I saw it today, it really confirmed the old man's words back then. The Chu Han brothers cooperated with the two factions of Tianmen and Xuanmen to come to my Long family today, I don't know what the so-called matter?" When the old lady saw Chu Han, she remembered that back then, they lived and died together in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, and she felt a lot of emotion in her heart. She knew that Chu Han had come to visit suddenly, and there must be something important.
Chu Han looked at the two disciples beside him, and the old lady understood and asked the two disciples to retreat. "You two go down first, no one is allowed to come in without my permission"
"You know that I have always spoken straightforwardly, if there is anything offended, please ask the old lady to include it, we heard that the dragon steward of the Long family has a transaction with the Tianhua mine, and the items traded are actually demon beasts, I want to ask the old lady what he thinks about this. Chu Han never beat around the bush when he spoke, and told everything about the dragon steward that Zou Hao and Xuan Ming had seen.
Hearing what Chu Han said, the old lady was very shocked in her heart, but there was no discoloration on her face.
"What Brother Chu said, is there evidence? Everyone knows that demon beasts harm the world, and they trade demon beasts, that is a big deal, if there is no evidence, you can't talk nonsense, my Long family is also considered to have a head and face in Shanxi, this kind of big thing that violates the way of heaven cannot be planted at will. While the old lady spoke, she took a sip of a bowl of tea, and her face changed a little.
"I saw it with my own eyes, and I heard Manager Liu of the mine call that person called Steward Long, and I saw that the clothes and shoes they were wearing were your Long family... Zou Hao said anxiously.
"Zou Hao, shut up. Chu Han interrupted Zou Hao's words and scolded loudly.
The old lady leaned back on the dragon chair, the corners of her mouth raised, with contempt, "Hehe, this little brother should pay attention when he speaks, you have to know what the consequences of slandering the Long family should be." After finishing speaking, the old lady noticed Zou Hao and felt a little familiar, so she asked: "This little brother, it looks a little familiar, I don't know if it's from Tianmen or Xuanmen?"
"I... Zou Hao was about to speak, but was interrupted by Chu Han, "He is the grandson of Zou Yan, and the young man is not a director, I hope that the old lady will not be like him." ”
"It turned out to be the grandson of the deceased, no wonder it looks familiar, I think that your grandfather Zou Yan was with the power of Chiyou, but he could pull out a thousand catties, and he had the courage of ten thousand people. Your father, Zou Qing, is also very good. "The older a person gets, the more he will recall the past, and the old lady is no different, and the most impressive thing for her is probably the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.
"The old lady has seen my father!" Zou Hao was not calm when he heard the old lady mention his father, because he had not been so impressed with his father since he was a child, and he had always admired his father very much, and he wanted to find out the cause of his father's death.
"I've seen it, he seemed to come to my Long family for something, I had a relationship with him, he has the style of Zou Yan back then, you are still too far behind them. The old lady made no secret of it, for Zou Hao, it was indeed too young, and he spoke very recklessly.
When Zou Hao heard the old lady say this, he felt embarrassed. The old lady continued: "I will find out what you said. If you don't dislike it, please stay with me for a few days, and when I find out, I will naturally give you an explanation. "In fact, the old lady has long suspected that there is something wrong with this dragon steward, but he has not been able to find evidence, today Chu Han mentioned it, although he said that he doubted it in his heart, but after all, this is an internal matter of the Long family, and he can't let outsiders see the joke.
"Since the old lady said so, then we might as well be respectful. "I heard An Rou talk to Hua Xin about the Long family before, and he cooperated with the Long family to enter the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang before, he was also very curious about the Long family, so he took this opportunity to learn more about it.
After Chu Han and the others left Lao Taijun's room, Lao Taijun began to order someone to integrate some of the information he had checked before.
In the early morning of the next day, the old lady sent someone to inform Chu Han, saying that he had found some eyebrows, and there should be results in the evening, and he would be notified when the time came, and at the same time, the old lady also arranged for two disciples of the Long family to be guides and take Chu Han and others to visit around the Long family village.
Chu Han and the others learned from the mouths of the two disciples of the Long Family that they had captured two demon beasts before and lost more than a dozen brothers. One of the demon beasts looked like a chicken but was covered in mouse hair. Originally, this demon beast was locked up in the dungeon of the Long family, but then it disappeared without knowing what happened, and I heard the dragon steward say that this demon beast escaped secretly after the brother in charge of it fell asleep. The other demon beast was the twin snake they had helped eradicate earlier.
At that time, the Long family also discovered these two demon beasts by accident, and when they found them, the two demon beasts were fighting, and they said that the two demon beasts were captured when they were not paying attention. Even then, more than a dozen brothers were killed and wounded. But for some reason, the two-body snake suddenly went crazy yesterday and escaped from the dungeon.
Listening to the descriptions of the two Long family brothers, Chu Han had roughly guessed what kind of demon beast the monster that fled like a chicken but was covered in rat hair. At the same time, he guessed that it was a demon beast and did not escape, it was probably the demon beast that Zou Hao and Xuanming saw trading with the mine manager.
The two guides accompanied Chu Han and others for a day, the scenery here is beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, even in this midsummer, it is still cool, it is a summer resort.
Although this village has been established by the Long family for thousands of years, the population in it is not large, only about a few thousand people, and the main reason is the traditional ideology of the farmer.
The rules of the Long family stipulate that all women are not allowed to come back if they marry out. All the wives married by men are not allowed to go out, and these two conditions alone have limited the growth of the population, coupled with the traditional rule of the Long family that men do not pass on women inside and outside, which limits the growth of the Long family's population.
But this also has an advantage, that is, it ensures that the bloodline of the Long family is pure, there are no outsiders, and it also ensures that all the people of the Long family have one heart for the outside world. This is also the main reason why the Long family became the head of the four major families.
Late at night, Qianxi came to Chu Han's door, wanted to knock on the door but stopped thinking about it, just as he turned around and was about to leave, Chu Han just opened the door and came out. "Qianxi!"
Qianxi looked back at Chu Han, a little embarrassed, although he has been in this society for more than ten years, but the traditional thinking is still deeply ingrained in his heart, and he always feels a little inappropriate when he comes to find Chu Han at night.
Just when the two of them were embarrassed, Chu Han suddenly noticed that someone was peeping, "who", and after shouting, the person left.
Chu Han and Qianxi immediately chased after him, because they were not familiar with the terrain here, after chasing for a while, the person disappeared, and when Chu Han was puzzled, he happened to meet the old lady who sent someone to call Chu Han over to discuss things.
Chu Han and Qianxi came to the old lady's bedroom, and as soon as they pushed the door open, a smell of blood came to their nostrils, and then they found the old lady lying on the ground, and there were two Long family guards in the room who were also lying on the ground, covered with blood.
