Chapter 265: Barbarian Tribe
Before dawn, when the sky was still gloomy and dark, Lu Chen and Ah Tu, who had fled all the way, came to the outside of the Evil Python Valley. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It was impossible to see in the darkness what the valley that was said to be full of snake poison was like, but the peculiar smell of snakes and insects coming from the wind explained the danger ahead.
You know, now they are still in the open area outside the Python Valley, if it is just the breath of ordinary snakes, it will probably be dispersed by the wind, but it is still so strong after such a distance, you can imagine that there are so many snakes and insects in it.
Ah Tu was a little restless and restless beside Lu Chen, which was rare in its body recently, even on the way to escape, Lu Chen did not see Ah Tu have a similar reaction. He stood beside Ah Tu and gently put his arms around its neck, and then Ah Tu quickly fell silent.
There was a cold wind in the dark night, but a man and a dog could still feel a trace of warmth between each other.
"The road ahead is a bit difficult to walk, and it's very dangerous, so if I change to someone else, I'll find a way to let people go. Lu Chen said with some emotion, "But you are so stupid and so easy to deceive, I am really reluctant to let you go." ā
Ah Tu turned his head and glanced at him, his eyes glowing green.
Lu Chen laughed and waved his hand, "Let's go......"
"Goo-goo!" Before he could finish speaking, he heard a strange sound beside him, but it was Ah Tu's stomach that screamed. Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, this day and night of escaping, Ah Tu is not a human monk after all, as a demon beast, he is still a flesh and blood body that has just advanced, and he will still be hungry.
For a moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt a slight heat on his cheeks and in his eyes at the same time, because he was too nervous this day and this night, or maybe when he was on Kunlun Mountain before, he had long been accustomed to letting Ah Tu go out to find food and clothing by himself, so he actually forgot about this matter.
And Ah Tu, who was supposed to be a lazy guy, actually followed him all the way to flee desperately, never abandoned, walked down without complaining, and didn't even complain.
Lu Chen took a deep breath in the darkness, then laughed, patted Ah Tu's head, and said softly, "Let's go, let's find something to eat." ā

It is not an easy task to find food at this moment before dawn, especially considering that Ah Tu's goods are not what they used to be, ordinary meat has long been out of sight, at least when Lu Chen's little dry food butcher shop handed it to him, Ah Tu looked disgusted, and he almost scoffed.
Well, of course, advanced holy beasts have to eat more high-end things, ordinary meat can't do it, so naturally they can only find demon beasts. Now the most obvious place where there are demon beasts in this place is of course the Evil Python Valley, but this midnight break into the valley full of poison is no different from looking for death.
Lu Chen didn't want to go, and Ah Tu, who was half hungry to death, didn't mean it either, looking at its appearance, he was disgusted just by smelling those fishy smells.
Therefore, Lu Chen had to take Ah Tu to the mountain range next to the Evil Python Valley first, to see if he could catch a few blind and unlucky demon beasts, first fill the stomach of this holy beast who is good at escaping, and then wait for dawn to find a way to pass through the Evil Python Valley and go straight to the Longchuan River.
The Python Valley is actually a valley that suddenly sinks in a tall and undulating, majestic mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles, although the gloomy and humid environment breeds countless poisonous insects and monsters, but in terms of topography, the Python Valley is actually one of the most convenient passages to the Longchuan River.
Of course, if it is a character of the level of the Great True Person of the Yuan Infant Realm, he is naturally not afraid of the high mountains and the incomparably strong Gang wind in the sky that can dissipate spiritual power, and flies directly from the top of the mountain.
Although Lu Chen was armed with the strange Dao method of black fire, which was extremely powerful in the actual fighting method, he was not good at flying in the sky. And in addition to himself, there is also a huge black wolf Ah Tu following, and it is even more impossible to fly over the mountains and mountains directly.
Therefore, when he and Ah Tu walked up to the nearest mountain, they couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the mountains stretching ahead. Soon, though, he turned around again and looked back.
Behind it was dark night, and darkness was everywhere, but beyond that it seemed to be empty, and there was no movement.
However, it was obvious that just now, Lu Chen felt that strange, snake-like cold gaze again.
He frowned, and after a moment he turned around again expressionlessly, and walked up with Atu.
However, their luck didn't seem to be good this night, and they searched for a while on the mountain, but they didn't come across any unlucky monster beasts running out. On this night, it seems that all the demon beasts are comfortably lying in their nests, refusing to come out to be a supper for a certain holy beast.
Ah Tu looked a little annoyed and irritable, Lu Chen was also a little helpless, and was thinking about whether to continue to look for it in the depths of this mountain range, when suddenly Ah Tu raised his head suddenly, but he sniffed a few times in the air, and then turned his head suddenly, but he shouted at Lu Chen, and there was actually a little joy and excitement in his voice, and then he stepped forward and ran in a certain direction.
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, at this moment they were on the top of the mountain, because they were in the upwind place, the fishy smell from the Evil Python Valley finally couldn't be smelled, but Ah Tu's appearance seemed to have suddenly discovered something at this time?
Lu Chen didn't hesitate any more, because Ah Tu's speed was not slow, and after all, it was the dark night of the Confused Land, and there were dangers everywhere, so he still followed.
After following Ah Tu through this mountain range for about half an hour, the sky was already slightly bright, and a trace of morning light appeared on the horizon of the distant sky, sprinkled on this chaotic land.
It was in this morning light that when Lu Chen and Ah Tu ran to an open place halfway up the mountain between the mountains, they suddenly stopped together.
Because in front of them, in the mountains that should have been primitive, savage, and uninhabited, suddenly a tribal community that was clearly inhabited by people appeared in front of them.
It was in a secluded col, leaning against a high stone wall, out of which several large caves had been hewn out, and outside the cave there were many rough houses made of wood and stones.
The morning light passed through this somewhat desolate and primitive tribe, and everything was silent, no smoke or anyone walking, as if all the people over there were still asleep.
Lu Chen's pupils slowly contracted, and he stared at the tribe, his eyes from the caves to the crude but tall houses, and finally landed on a triangular stone mound in the center of the tribe.
I saw a black arm-thick piece of wood inserted into the stone mill, carved with some very strange patterns.
Even if it was so far away, Lu Chen could still see it clearly, and then he felt a little familiar. For a moment, he couldn't remember where he had seen these totemic things before.
Totem, totem...... He frowned and pondered, for some reason he had a hunch that this thing was very important and had to be remembered. And at this time, Ah Tu, who was suddenly beside him, roared in a low voice, but showed a trace of excitement and joy.
Lu Chen turned his head to look at Ah Tu, only to see Ah Tu's mouth half open, as if he was about to drool, and a pair of dog eyes stared at a certain place in the tribe without blinking.
Lu Chen immediately followed Ah Tu's gaze, and saw that there were several wooden houses outside, and a thick rope was pulled between the two big trees, and then seven or eight things that looked like pickled meat were hanging upside down on the rope, and it was estimated that this stupid dog couldn't help but eat it.
However, what can make Ah Tu so excited and yearning, presumably those should be the meat of demon beasts, thinking about it, the strength of this tribe should not be bad, and it can actually capture demon beasts, and there are a lot of them. Just as he was thinking about it, Lu Chen suddenly felt that the thing on the rope was a little familiar, to be exact, it was very similar to something he had heard before.
That's the demon beast that should have been on Rat Hill Mountain, the ferocious and bloodthirsty cloud gopher!
Looking at the row of cloud gophers that were supposed to be a headache from a distance, but now they were killed and stripped and hung upside down there, like pickled meat, Lu Chen felt an indescribable strangeness.
Thinking back to the unusually calm when he passed through Rat Hill Mountain before, Lu Chen couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, thinking, could it be that this tribe catches rats for a living, and forcibly catches all the cloud gophers in Rat Hill Mountain, right?
Ah Tu beside him couldn't bear it anymore, and rubbed Lu Chen's body with his head, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Lu Chen hesitated, nodded and said, "Okay, you go, if there is anything wrong, run back quickly." ā
Ah Tu cheered, and ran towards the tribe below the mountain, Lu Chen did not follow, but stared at Ah Tu's figure, watching it slowly approach the mysterious tribe.
There was no one in the tribe, and there was nothing around to block it, such as a fence or a wooden fence, so Atu easily got in.
However, after approaching the tribe, Ah Tu was obviously also careful, kept ghostly, looked around, and then slowly approached the hanging meat with a light foot, and after a while, he suddenly jumped up, directly bit a cloud gopher on it, and pulled it hard, and immediately took the thing down.
Ah Tu turned around and ran, but this movement had already alarmed some people in the tribe, and after a while, someone ran out of the nearest room, and cursed loudly at Ah Tu who had stolen it with an angry face, and by the way, he also threw a stone spear out, and with a "duh" sound, it stabbed at the place where Ah Tu had just run, and it buzzed and vibrated non-stop.
Lu Chen's body suddenly shook slightly in the distance, looking at the person who was scolding and angry in the morning light, with a hideous face, fangs in his mouth, and many strange patterns painted on his face and forehead, he suddenly woke up in an instant.
It's a barbarian!
This tribe is a tribe of barbarians!
And the totem pattern that had just made him feel familiar to his eyes, he had indeed seen with his own eyes, was the pattern trace on the face of the fire shaman he saw in the Battle of Arakuya ten years ago! )
