After about an hour, the group finally approached the village in their mouths. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

To be precise, this should be a tribe of considerable scale, built on the mountain, surrounded by two people to the high solid thick earthen wall firmly guarded, the whole village sanitation in it, the earthen wall every other distance, there is a small stand on it, a total of more than ten places, evenly distributed.

On each stand, there is a stone plate in the shape of a disc with a hexagonal shape, which looks simple and dull, with a bit of mysterious taste.

On the sturdy, thick and wide earthen wall, four guards patrol back and forth with long forks and lanterns, and the gate embedded in the middle of the earthen wall is closed, looking like the sharp teeth of a giant beast from a distance.

Closing the door so early, are they guarding against something?

Seeing this, Cheng Yiming couldn't help but think of the crystal beasts that came out of the day and night in the Mohai Forest.

In the huge village, the civil and wooden houses of different heights are lined up one after another, and although they seem to be inhabited by many people, they do not seem crowded at all, but are so neat and orderly.

It's just that although there are a lot of lights inside, it seems a little too quiet.

In the quiet, with a bit of an eerie atmosphere.

The most strange thing is the black mountain peak behind the village, it looks like a tiger and leopard in a nest from a distance, although compared with the general mountain range, it seems to be much smaller, at most it is more than 100 meters high, stretching for more than 1,000 meters, it does not look very tall and majestic.

However, in Cheng Yiming's opinion, it seemed a little solemn.

And this mountain peak is so dead and depressing compared to the previous lush and beautiful mountains, the whole mountain range is bare, and it is a strange dark black, as if it is made of steel.

Even if they were thousands of meters away, Cheng Yiming could still feel the faint coercion coming from the mysterious peak.

Even at a moment when he suddenly had a delusion.

That mountain peak was simply the remains of a huge god.

As the group gradually approached the village, they also seemed to find that the scene in the village was different from the past, and the originally cheerful voice of conversation gradually lowered, turning into bursts of whispers, and at the same time, the speed under their feet couldn't help but increase.

Cheng Yiming still followed them unhurriedly.

When those people approached the gate, Cheng Yiming stopped and slowly lowered his figure.

It wasn't until they talked to the guards on the earthen wall that they hurriedly opened the gate and entered, and then hurriedly closed the gate, and Cheng Yiming crouched in the dense artemisia grass not far away from beginning to end, and did not show up.

What kind of place is this?

What should he do now? You can't just hide here all the time......

Swaggering over and explaining to them what you mean? It also seems a little inappropriate......

After all, in a completely unfamiliar environment, it's best to be cautious before you know what's going on around you.

The night is lonely and there are few insects.

After a long time, Cheng Yiming finally made up his mind and took advantage of the night to move forward.

Except for the undulating murmur of scattered insects, it seemed extraordinarily quiet, but fortunately, the continuous patches of barren grass half a man high gave him enough cover, and his body was flexible and brisk, and he quietly came to the earthen wall in a short time.

Taking a deep breath, I saw him use his hands and feet like a gecko swimming against a wall, climbing up the rough earthen wall.

Suddenly, he heard a 'click', and a clod of earth was trampled down, jumping and rolling down into the dense grass under the earthen wall.

Although the voice was not loud, it was particularly clear in such a quiet night, and the two patrolling guards not far away immediately turned around, held the lantern in their hands, and walked quickly.

Cheng Yiming secretly screamed badly, his body was clinging to the shadow of the earthen wall, and he didn't dare to come out.

"Luo Hu! What was the sound just now? ”

One of them, a bearded man, asked.

"I don't know, it seems that something has fallen, I can't see it clearly!"

The lean man known as Luo Hu looked out of the earthen wall with a lantern, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see a reason, and turned around and said, "I said Brother Kangmu, are we making a fuss?" ”

The bearded man named Kang Mu also stretched out his neck and looked at it for a long time, shook his head and said, "Patriarch Duoyuan has repeatedly told me before that these few days are when crystal beasts are rampant, so you can't take it lightly!" ”

Luo Hu nodded and said, "That's right, these god-killing crystal beasts are really a headache!" ”

Kang Mu put away the lantern in his hand and said, "Who says it's not, there are always so many times a year, and most of the manpower has to be used to guard against those crystal beasts, but these beasts are all born with brute strength and are extremely cunning......"

Speaking of this, Kang Mu's eyes showed a little melancholy, as if he remembered the past again, and said heavily: "The third child of the sixth squad last year, because they were too careless, all twelve people were ......."

Kang Mu sighed softly and shook his head, not saying any more.

Luo Hu swept the iron fork in his hand, with a look of resentment, gritted his teeth and said, "These beasts, it's better not to fall into my hands!" ”

Kang Mu patted Luo Hu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go on patrol, it should have been just a four-legged snake just now, of course it's best if these beasts don't come, I'd rather be able to spend the next few days in peace!" ”

Luo Hu sighed: "It's best to be able to survive the nature safely, although everyone hates those beasts, but I have to say that those beasts are really difficult to deal with, even Brother Kang Shi said that under a single fight, he can only deal with an adult low-level crystal beast!" ”

As he spoke, there was a kind of admiration in his eyes.

Kang Mu looked at Luo Hu's expression in his eyes, his face was a little proud, and said: "Four or five people like me, it is already very good to be able to deal with a low-level crystal beast, my eldest brother is recognized as the number one warrior in the clan, and it is naturally not a problem to deal with a low-level crystal beast!" ”

It is not difficult to hear from their words that the strong, no matter where they are, are respected.

I only heard Luo Hu say: "They have come back just now, and they also hunted a mid-level adult crystal beast, this is a thing worth celebrating, after a change of guard, we have to have a few drinks!" ”

Kang Mu said with a proud face: "Hehe, that's natural!" ”

The two continued to patrol the other side of the earthen wall as they spoke.

From afar, I only heard Luo Hu say again: "By the way, not long ago, I heard Brother Kang Shi say that the psychic stone that has been silent for a hundred years in the clan seems to have moved, and even the sacrificial Fenggu Mama who has disappeared in the clan for a long time suddenly appeared, and stayed in the ancestral hall for several days, as if she was doing some kind of ritual...... Brother Kangmu, did you say that the legend about the Holy Son that has been circulating in the clan for a long time is really going to come true? ”

As the two walked apart, their words began to blur.

From afar, I only heard Kang Mu say: "If that legend ...... If it can be fulfilled......"

As the two walked away, Cheng Yiming could no longer hear the content of their conversation clearly.

With a long sigh of relief, Cheng Yiming slowly leaned out, and after making sure that there was no one around, his hands suddenly exerted force, and the whole person turned over lightly, stepped to the other side of the earthen wall in two steps, and quietly slid down.

The night was melting, and the huge village seemed unusually quiet.
