() "Why are you here?" York, the father like that, looked at Lu Tao with a little unkind eyes, as if he was not very satisfied with his arrival.

"Father. Nana took a step forward and said, "I asked Lu Tao to come, Lu Tao said, if no one accompanies your father to find the black dragon sword, he will go with you, at least he can protect you." ”

"Nonsense!" then your father scolded Nana with a straight face: "Where do I need a hairy boy to protect, go back quickly! I can go on the road alone, and I will soon find the Black Dragon Sword!"

"Father! Lu Tao has a lot of strength! At least he can help you with your luggage!"

Lu Tao: "......"

He didn't know when he changed from a thug to a baggage porter, this seemed to be different from what he had just agreed with Nana, right? Lu Tao actually wanted to say that he was good at other things besides strength. Then, Lu Tao checked his spiritual power and found that they still couldn't use it, so he shut his mouth.

He is not familiar with knives, guns and sticks, so the best is a kitchen knife, so at this look, Lu Tao found that he really did not have any other tools and means except for his strength.

Nana saw that her father and Lu Tao fell into silence, and added: "Actually, father, I also want to go with you, I may not be able to help with anything else, but at least I can prepare food for you." ”

"No way!"

Nana's father, York, and mother, Anna, said in unison, startling Nana: "Why not? Even the Tatam guy can live outside for so many days, so I can too!"

"No, it's not negotiable!" Nana's father, York, made a final decision: "Lu Tao can come with me, you must not go together!"

As he spoke, York looked at Lu Tao: "Take your luggage, let's go!"

Lu Tao: "......"

He didn't even say a word from beginning to end, and in the end, for some reason, he was put on the task of porter.

Nodding, Lu Tao picked up the luggage that was placed in the corner of the room, it was not heavy, but there were a lot of things in it. York brought almost everything he could bring, including tents, quilts, cooking pots, fire folds for making fires, bacon, and other miscellaneous things, Lu Tao even found more than a dozen strange pillars and bells in this pile of things, the pillars are very short, and they don't look like things that support tents, and the bells are even more strange, but to be honest, Lu Tao is still here for the first time to see such a thing, and after staying in Heilong Village for so long, he even rarely sees iron tools.

Wait a minute! Lu Tao found a problem.

Things are well prepared, but I

What about the luggage?!

......

Lu Tao didn't come with luggage from the beginning, but Nana and Nana's mother helped Lu Tao prepare some things that he could use when he rested at night, such as mattresses, quilts and other things. Lu Tao finished his rest and followed Nana's father, York, on the road.

Nana and Nana's mother, Anna, together sent Lu Tao and York to the bottom of the cliff that connected to the top before stopping, and watched the two people climb to the top of the cliff and enter the passage connecting to the outside world.

The underground lizard with some miserable green light was still lying in its original position, and before Lu Tao could react, York walked forward directly and touched the lizard's head: "Long time no see, long time no see, are you hungry?" I just brought you something to eat, and I don't know if those bastards fed you properly." ”

Saying that, York took out a piece of thigh of an unknown animal from the pile of things that Lu Tao carried on his back and threw it to the underground lizard, watching the lizard bite off the thigh bone with one mouth, York nodded with satisfaction: "It's delicious, it's delicious, just watch the entrance here, I'll come back to see you after a while." ”

After saying goodbye to the lizard, York pointed to the entrance of the cave in front of him and said to Lu Tao: "Let's go, let's move on, there is still a long way to go, we must hurry up, maybe we can find the tower next to the Grand Canyon before the evening of the day after tomorrow." ”

Lu Tao answered yes and walked out with York, but found an embarrassing problem.

The passage connecting the inside and outside was not big, but now coupled with the exaggerated package on Lu Tao's back, he couldn't pass at all, Lu Tao was directly stuck at the entrance of the cave and couldn't move, feeling like a fool with pure 24k gold.

"Uncle York......" Seeing that Uncle York was still walking forward regardless of it, Lu Tao had to open his mouth and shout to him: "Uncle York, the bag is too big to get by......"

This time, Uncle York finally discovered the difficulties encountered by Lu Tao and retreated to the original cave with him.

"Well, this is what I think is bad, I don't know how many times I have walked this road, but I forgot that it is so narrow that it is not easy to pass through. ”

Lu Tao helped Uncle York divide the things on his back into two piles, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle York, didn't you prepare these things for the night when you went out before?"

York shook his head: "No, those towers outside are enough for me to use, if it weren't for the fact that there weren't too many towers along the way to the place I'm going to this time, I wouldn't have brought so many things, and besides, I had to guard against the arrival of the beast." ”

"What is a beast?"

Never heard of it from anyone else.

"Oh, so you probably haven't seen a wraith. York tied up the pile of wooden sticks that Lu Tao didn't know what to do:" Outside, every night, there is a kind of invisible and substantial monsters all over the land, those monsters will not kill humans, it is better to say that they can't touch human bodies at all, but they will try to encroach on human consciousness, only by hiding in the tower can they avoid the erosion of these monsters, this kind of monster is a beast, but there is no fixed body, some look like people, some look like animals, some look like plants, and some can't be described at all, then you will know. ”

Lu Tao then remembered that he had spent one night in the tower outside with Tatam, and at that time Tatam told Lu Tao that there were very terrible things that would pass under at night, and Lu Tao originally planned to take advantage of the night to pass through those windows that were not much larger than the air vents to see what the terrible thing Tatam was talking about, but he forgot about it because he patronized Tatam to tell Tatam about the land of China in modern society.

Finally dismantled into two bags that could barely pass through the hole, Lu Tao and York started on the road again.

Opening the door on the top stone pillar, Lu Tao finally saw the sun again after a long absence.

"Uncle York, do you know where this sun came from? You should know that we are now in the belly of a monster named the Sky Eater, and I don't believe that he also has a sun in his belly, and it still runs at the time of morning and evening. Lu Tao squinted at the sun above his head and asked the question he had always wanted to ask, where did this sun come from?

"The sun?" York glanced up at the sun in the sky, "I don't know, at least my father didn't tell me where this sun came from, in fact, if you don't say it's me, I almost forgot that this is the Sky Swallower in the belly, but ......"

"But what?" York hesitated, but Lu Tao keenly caught the hesitation in York's heart, so he hurriedly asked.

"Well, though, there's one person who might know the origin of the sun overhead, and it's very difficult to get along with, and if you're interested, I can show you there, and we're passing by the Grand Canyon to the south. ”

Lu Tao nodded: "That's great, I must ask for it!"

After reaching a consensus, the two began to move towards the south, here is the same as the habit of Lu Tao's hometown, the place where the sun rises is the east, and the place where the sun sets is the west, after stepping on the grassland, until the sun rises overhead, Lu Tao can no longer distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, but York does not seem to be affected by these conditions at all, he goes all the way forward, without any hesitant expression.
