Walking on the rugged road in the middle of the mountain, the hunchbacked old man's physique was relatively strong, and he did not feel tired.

However, for Xu Ran, the more he followed this hunchback uncle, the more strange he felt.

Because since he entered the village, this old man has taken him to the middle of the mountain, and the more he walks, the more remote he becomes.

"Uncle, where are you taking me?"

Walking this mountain road, Xu Ran will not feel tired, but he feels strange, it is impossible for Granny Cui to live in seclusion in this mountain, and she still has a little girl who is eleven or twelve years younger, right?

"Young man, don't be impatient, it's almost there!"

The hunchbacked old man said a word to Xu Ran, and then continued to lead the way.

If Xu Ran hadn't been able to read that this old man had no malicious intentions, and was indeed really guiding him, Xu Ran would even wonder if he was taken to a remote and uninhabited place in the mountains and then beaten up and killed for money.

Instead, I went up half the mountain again, and after turning another corner, I suddenly became enlightened.

I saw a dilapidated stone building between the mountainsides, which at first glance looked a bit like a mountain temple.

However, if you observe the details, Xu Ran can tell that this is a relatively old ancestral hall, at least four or five hundred years old.

The hunchbacked old man did not take Xu Ran to the normality of this ancestral hall, but entered through the side door and came to a side courtyard connected to the ancestral hall.

There is only one small cabin in this side yard, and the surrounding area is quite clean and tidy.

After Xu Ran came in, he saw that the door of the small cabin had opened a crack, and a small head poked out, and after seeing Xu Ran, he seemed very happy and shouted: "Big brother, you are here!"

After seeing the little girl Kayal, Xu Ran smiled and nodded at her, and Cayal said, "Big brother, mother-in-law has been waiting for you for a long time, come in!"

The hunchbacked old man did not follow him into the wooden house when he arrived here, but went to the ancestral hall through the side door.

After Xu Ran entered the wooden house, he smelled a natural fragrance, which made people feel refreshed and clear-headed.

The structure of the wooden house is very simple, Granny Cui is sitting quietly on a blanket at this time, seemingly closing her eyes to recuperate, and after Xu Ran approached, she opened her eyes and smiled at Xu Ran: "You are here, I hope you don't mind if you go to such a remote place!"

Xu Ran walked to the tea table and sat down, and the little girl Kayal took the initiative to pour the teacup for Xu Ran.

Granny Cui waved her hand, and after the little girl understood what she meant, she went to the side drawer and took out a mobile phone, and then jumped out to sit in the yard and play mobile games.

Only then did Granny Cui take the initiative to say to Xu Ran: "Did it go smoothly?"

Xu Ran said: "It's going well!"

"That's good!"

Granny Cui nodded with satisfaction and said, "Did you also encounter a bronze coffin that broke out of the wall, and the real Zhenling Bead can be in the box in that bronze coffin?"

I didn't expect Granny Cui to know so much, Xu Ran nodded and said, "It's just that there is still a monster hidden in the bronze coffin, fortunately I didn't run out, otherwise it will be infinitely harmful!"

"Indeed, you may be the only one in this world who has the ability to suppress or kill that monster, so I will entrust you to do this, but I wronged you to take the risk, and the old body apologizes again!"

Xu Ran said: "That mother-in-law, you need it, the things in the bronze coffin are not trivial, and they also involve the Holy Weapon Town Spirit Bead of the Fenghui Tribe, I don't dare to bring it out, but seal it!"

Granny Cui shook her head and said, "I came to Xia City to find a way to destroy or suppress that monster that has been sealed for thousands of years, so as to fulfill this last wish left by my ancestors, so that he will not run out and harm the world!"

"As for the contents inside, the old body only needs the two gold artifacts on the tablet, and everything else will be given to you, I hope you can continue to suppress that monster, so that it will not come out and poison the creatures!"

Xu Ran was a little surprised, this Cui Granny didn't want the Zhen Spirit Bead, nor the quantum creature, but only two golden pots, and couldn't help but be curious: "Mother-in-law, I'm curious, that monster now has two changeable forms, where did it come from?"

"Have you evolved into two forms?"

Granny Cui's expression was a little solemn, and she said with a happy face: "Fortunately, it has not evolved into a third form, otherwise it will really become a big climate, and this world may be destroyed because of him."

It was a terrifying thing, it was originally a spirit that was inadvertently conceived by my ancestors when they were studying the secret art of the soul, and it grew up feeding on evil thoughts or negative energies such as greed, killing, rage, etc.

It's just that later, when the ancestors were exploring a secret realm, they accidentally let that thing run out and devour a kind of xenomorphic energy from an unknown source, so that thing mutated and became a half-living soul, half-alien life state, which can be a form transformation between soul and matter, and the threat is getting bigger and bigger, and it is difficult to kill and destroy.

Therefore, the ancestors had no choice but to seal it in a bronze coffin, and stole the spirit bead of the Fenghui tribe to make it fall into a state of sleep, and at the same time arranged a formation outside, through the initial soul collected in the golden pot as a sustenance, it would release a part of it from time to time for devouring, so that it could not be trapped in the formation and could not get out.

And now that the power of that place is getting weaker and weaker, and even the energy pool in the bronze coffin cannot be powered, then this thing will definitely be revived, and maybe it won't be long before he can break out of the coffin, so it must be killed or suppressed before he can evolve the third form......"

Xu Ran heard Granny Cui say this, thinking that it turned out to be a monster made by those Vault Dwellers, and then they sealed it themselves.

However, now after Xu Ran was honest with Granny Cui and explained the situation, Granny Cui didn't intend to return to the tribe's spirit bead and the quantum creatures in the bronze coffin, but just asked for two golden pots to do some research.

This made Xu Ran secretly relieved, because the Zhen Spirit Bead had been embedded in the mysterious box, and it was not certain whether it could be taken off.

If it is a matter entrusted by Granny Cui, the ultimate goal is the Zhen Spirit Bead, then Xu Ran can't take it out, then even if it is a no-show, it will even arouse suspicion.

At this time, Granny Cui took a sip of tea, and said: "Daliang Village here actually has some relationship with me, and the hunchbacked old man just now is also surnamed Xu, although he is a descendant of the side branch of this tribe, and his bloodline has been extremely weak, but they still practice the faith of Master Zhending, and they built this ancestral hall in the mountain, but also to preserve some important faith inheritances in the movement that broke the four olds decades ago......"

Speaking of this, Granny Cui suddenly flashed a trace of remembrance in her eyes, and said: "After the old body found here, it can be regarded as solving a mystery left in the heart of the third life, and you helped the old body to suppress the monster again, and even helped the old body find his own way, and there is no regret in this life!"
