Huoyan's bulls-like eyes stared at Lu Chen for a long time, and then slowly put him down, his face softened, and after a while, he suddenly said: "I'm just a person, and I'm not even a patriarch, even if I make this kind of oath, I may not be able to really repay the clan."

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Well, what you said makes sense. ”

Huoyan looked at him and said, "Then you still want me to swear?"

Lu Chen said calmly: "It doesn't matter if it counts, just ask for peace of mind." ”

Huoyan stared at Lu Chen, Lu Chen also looked directly at him, the eyes of the two people did not mean to dodge, after a while, Huoyan nodded, took two steps to the side, knelt down on one knee facing the vast wasteland, touched his chest with one hand, pointed to the sky with the other, and repeated the oath that Lu Chen had just said.

Until this moment, Lu Chen was finally slightly moved, and when he looked at the barbarian Huoyan again, his gaze became a little more complicated, with a little vigilance and caution, as well as a little appreciation.

At the same time, the last rays of light on the sky finally disappeared.

It's dark.

※※※

"What are you going to do next?" asked Lu Chen to Huoyan.

Huoyan said: "I'll take you to the altar of the god of fire to see what the god of fire has decreed." It's a far away, it's very secretive, it's dangerous, and you can't find it without me. ”

Lu Chen glanced at him and said, "It's just the two of us?"

Huoyan said: "Just the two of us." ”

Lu Chen pointed to the tribal camp in the darkness and said, "Don't you care about them?"

Huoyan was silent for a while, and said, "With my father here, the clan can't be chaotic, plus I just defeated the Mountain Spirit Clan, and there will be no more wars suddenly during this time......

Before the words fell, a figure suddenly rushed out of the darkness next to him, it was Huoyan's son Fire Eagle.

I saw that the young man's face was excited, and he strode to the fire rock, and shouted, "Daddy, what are you doing here?"

The muscles on Huo Yan's face twitched slightly, then he took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Son, I'm going to leave the clan for a while. During this period, you have to help your grandfather lead the tribe well, and don't be willful......"

"Why?" Fire Eagle looked angry and incomprehensible, and pointed to Lu Chendao, "Just for this Terran who suddenly appeared? Daddy, what's wrong with you today, why do you suddenly seem to be a different person?"

Huoyan shook his head and said, "It's all the will of the Fire God, son, everything I do is for our Black Fire Clan." ”

Fire Eagle let out a low roar, but looking at his father's resolute look, he seemed to know that he couldn't persuade him back after all, so he had to turn his head and stare at Lu Chen viciously. If vision could kill, Lu Chen might have died at this moment.

Then, the fire eagle gritted his teeth and strode back, looking extremely disappointed in his father.

Lu Chen looked at the back of the young man leaving, and suddenly said: "Actually, what he said also has some truth, whoever changes it will feel that your decision is a little unimaginable." ”

Huo Yan silently looked at the direction where the back of the fire eagle disappeared, and the vague shadow of the black fire tribe camp in the night, after a while, he suddenly threw his hand and threw the fire god scepter directly to Lu Chen, and then turned around and walked into the distance, and said at the same time: "Let's go." ”

Lu Chen caught the Fire Scepter and turned it around in his hand, the smooth feel actually made him feel a little familiar and cordial, and it was also a little ironic. He casually leaned his hand against his chest, and the Vulcan Scepter disappeared in an instant, and then he greeted Ah Tu and quickly followed the fire rock.

As he walked, Huoyan glanced at Lu Chen's chest, intentionally or unintentionally, and a strange color flashed in his eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything.

After walking like this for a while, Lu Chen suddenly asked him, "There is something I still want to ask you." ”

Huoyan said: "You say." ”

Lu Chen said: "The entire Black Fire Clan doesn't believe me, you are only one person, with your status and status, why would you take such a big risk and do this desperately, and even almost turn your face with your clan?"

The fire rock walked forward in silence, and after a long moment, he whispered, "None of them see danger. ”

"What danger?"

"The danger of the dead. ”

Lu Chen frowned and said, "What do you say?"

There seemed to be a trace of gloom on Huoyan's face, and then he said slowly: "Since the ancestors of the clan fled from the north thousands of years ago, bad luck has been haunting our Black Fire Clan, and it is because those ancestors committed great sins, so they were punished by the Fire God. ”

Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then looked at him and asked tentatively, "You mean to say that the ancestors of the Black Fire Clan made a mistake in the middle of fleeing from the north back then?"

Huoyan smiled bitterly, and said astringently: "Back then, the strength of your army of Terran monks was too strong, and the victory and defeat were already divided after the bloody battle. The Black Fire Tribe was the largest tribe in the past, responsible for covering the other tribes to flee south, but at the most critical moment, our ancestors abandoned the shamans, priests, and warriors who were fighting fiercely, and ran back to the wasteland by themselves across the Great Snow Mountain and the Sea of Broken Spirit Sand. ”

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something, and said, "Later, your powerful ancestors didn't come back?"

Huo Yan sighed and said: "Later, the war was fierce to the extreme, and your human race had a supernatural master, and the battle was caused by a landslide and the terrain changed...... The only passage was also blocked, and then those people never came back. ”

Lu Chen was silent.

After Huoyan was silent for a while, his tone seemed to calm down, and then he said: "Since then, our Black Fire Clan has plummeted and become a weak small clan in the wasteland, and now, we can only mess around with the Ghost Eyes, Thunder Lizards, and other small clans every day. But even so, after a long time like this, the people in our tribe seem to have gradually become accustomed to it, and they think that there is probably nothing wrong with going on like this. ”

Lu Chen said: "But you don't think so?"

Huoyan shook his head and said, "Living like this is lifeless and hopeless, even if we can continue to live for decades or even hundreds of years now, one day, an accident, a storm, and a defeated war will be enough for us to blackfire the dead clan." ”

He stopped, turned to look at Lu Chen, and said, "They can't see it, I see it." Originally, I couldn't do anything, but I happened to meet you, so no matter what, I had to gamble. The Blackfire tribe is too weak, and only if the tribe has priests can there be hope of re-emerging in this harsh wasteland, even if it is ......"

Lu Chen said lightly: "Even if that priest may be a human race?"

Huoyan was silent for a moment, the muscles on his cheeks twitched, and he seemed to grit his teeth fiercely, and then said in a deep voice: "Yes." ”

Lu Chen nodded, and after taking a few steps forward, he suddenly asked, "Then have you ever thought that maybe the rest of your Black Fire Clan is wrong, but you are the only one who is wrong?"

Huoyan strode forward, facing the boundless night ahead, when the cold wind blew, his tall and burly body had no intention of flinching and dodging, and he moved forward proudly, and said loudly: "Then I lose, so it's okay, I will pay for your life, just think that I died fighting for the black fire!"

Lu Chen looked at his back from behind, suddenly sighed softly, nodded, and whispered to himself: "Good man." I can't imagine that among the barbarians, there are such resolute and resolute characters, amazing!"

※※※

Huo Yan walked with Lu Chen to the depths of the wasteland for a day and a night, except for the time when he rested and slept in between, he walked forward almost all the time.

Later, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, and asked him, "Isn't that Fire God Altar the holy place of your Black Fire Clan, why isn't your camp guarded near the Holy Land?"

Huoyan shook his head and said, "That's not good, first, it's that the altar holy land is different, and ordinary mortals are not suitable to live nearby for a long time; second, if you live too close, it will easily attract the attention of other tribes, and it will endanger the safety of the holy land." ”

Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "The other tribes also know that you have the Fire God Altar, so they want to come and take a look?"

Huoyan nodded and said: "After all, our clan was the largest clan in the wasteland back then, so many people thought that there might be many treasures in our altar holy land. ”

"They didn't use the means?"

"Of course. Huoyan said lightly, "Kidnapping, killing, torture, war, everything our Black Fire tribe has experienced, otherwise the strength would not have dropped so quickly." That is, later, they used all the methods, but they still didn't get any news, so the matter gradually faded, probably thinking that the Vulcan Altar was just a legend. ”

Lu Chen wanted to speak and stopped, but inexplicably felt that there seemed to be a faint layer of pressure on his body.

Such a major secret, the Black Fire Tribe has kept it for so many years, and only the patriarch has passed it on orally from generation to generation, but now Huoyan is saying that if you take yourself, you will take yourself with you.

Of course, because of the so-called fire god, it was too attractive to bring a fire god scepter, but the resoluteness of the barbarian Huoyan once again made Lu Chen marvel in his heart.

He looked up at the fire rock and thought to himself, this barbarian is probably the biggest and craziest gambler among the barbarians over the years.

In this way, they walked for two days, but still did not reach the place mentioned by the fire rock, but on the second day, when they walked on the lonely and desolate wasteland, suddenly a burst of yellow sand smoke and dust blew from the front, and then a terrible whistling sound, as if someone was looking up to the sky and roaring, and as if there were thousands of troops and horses, floating from the depths of the wasteland ahead.
