"Are these scales used indefinitely?" Gao Peng asked tentatively.

"Of course not, the scales can dispel monsters because the scales have the smell of the Red Carp King, and the scales have been used for a long time, and the smell will naturally fade. The old man said as a matter of course. "There aren't many monsters needed for sacrifices, and one piece can last for a year. ”

Gao Peng nodded, this red carp king's IQ is not low, and he knows how to gather wool.

And there is no need to hunt for food every day, so naturally humans will take the initiative to feed it.

Just pay some to get rid of the scales you don't want.

Gao Peng can probably understand why the coalition government does not broadcast this kind of news publicly.

It's really not glamorous.

The safety of citizens under the alliance government cannot be protected by the alliance, and it has actually been reduced to the point of sacrificing monsters.

But if you want to maintain the safety of a base city, you need at least a lord-level beast or monster to do it.

Also as a human being, Gao Peng couldn't help but be silent.

Yuzhou and Chang'an, where he was before, were guarded by top human envoys, so he didn't have to worry about the invasion of monsters in the surrounding forests.

But not with these small base cities.

"Boss, it's here. The boatman slowly docked the boat on the shore, the tide of the river on the bank ebbed and flowed, and in the turbid water, a cyan king was lying on the shallow beach.

It was not afraid when it saw the boat, but sniffed it interestingly, and then as if it smelled something terrible, the two mung beans narrowed their eyes, shrank their heads in cringe, and dived into the depths of the river with one turning.

"Are you familiar with this place?" Gao Peng asked Dumb, if it really lived here before, it should feel familiar with its surroundings.

Dumb stooped out of the cabin and stepped on the deck with a clattering sound.

Dumb looked around, then jumped up from the deck and landed on the shore.

Stepping on the soft and wet soil, the silvery phalanges sank deep into the dirt.

Possessed and squatted, holding the dirt in both hands, the wet dirt slowly flowing out of his fingers.

The soul flame in Dumb's eyes swayed, and in a trance, it seemed to return to a year ago, on this familiar shore, a group of red water apes frolicked and played.

A large net fell from the sky, and the sharp barbs gripped its fur.

The strongest of them has become the best prey in the eyes of hunters, and it is bound to win.

It roared in rage, alerting the rest of the people away from the river and into the depths of the forest.

It saw her youngest daughter, who was only three months old, being taken away by her mother and hiding in the jungle, and wondered if she remembered it.

Dumb slowly got up and pulled his thick foot bones out of the dirt, bringing up large patches of sand with each step.

Step by step, Dumb walked firmly into the depths of the jungle.

Gao Peng paid the money to the boatman, and then agreed on the next time to pick him up, and then went ashore from here with the remaining beasts.

After walking for about ten minutes, Dumb stopped under a thick tree.

It was a thick wood, with a thick trunk, like a knotted python emerging from the depths of the earth, winding all over the sky, and the dense foliage blocked the sunlight, causing the light in the woods to be somewhat dim.

There were some familiar marks on the branches, and Dumb climbed up the tree, gently rubbing the remnants of the branches with his fingertips.

Dumb was a little anxious, and jumped down from the branch uneasily.

"It's okay, maybe they're just migrating. Gao Peng comforted Dumb.

"Look around and see if you can find any traces of them?"

Dumb nodded, the last time there was a remnant here was probably a few months ago, and in this forest, a few months can wash away the remaining traces.

But Dumb is a red water ape after all, and as a red water ape, he naturally knows a lot about the habits of red water apes.

Comforted by his master, Dumb was no longer discouraged, and cheered up to continue searching for clues left by his fellow clansmen.

Although the red ape group has left their original station, they still live in the Hongsha River Basin, which Dumb is sure of, because this is the only area where they have familiar food and familiar environment.

Halfway through they found a group of red apes, Dumb looked at it carefully for half an hour, and finally left regretfully, not the group it belonged to, because there was no familiar face.

Unless the race is wiped out, no matter how much you wander, there will be a few familiar faces.

Dumb walked tirelessly through the forest, and the cry of the red ape was faintly heard in front of him.

Dumb cheered up and walked over quickly.

It was a not very high cliff, only about forty meters high, and a large area of dense trees grew under the cliff.

Large vines hung down from the cliffs.

Some red terraems frolic on the branches.

Dumb suddenly froze, staring at the red ape group in a daze.

Gao Peng had never seen Dumb so excited.

The bloodshot heart in his chest jumped wildly, constantly swelling and contracting, and the bloodshot in the gap between the skeleton tensed and wrapped around the bones.

made Gao Peng wonder if Dumb would suddenly fall apart with excitement.

"Would you like to go over and meet them?"

Dumb was a little moved, but he looked down at his bone frame and was silent.

"Go and see, after all, it's your people, didn't you say that you were once the king of this tribe. Gao Peng encouraged Dumb.

Dumb hurriedly waved his hand, "No! No!"

Its voice was very panicked, no matter how much Gao Peng tried to persuade it, it was useless, and there were faint crystalline blue points of light flowing in the depths of its eyes, as if it was crying.

This is the first time Gao Peng has seen Dumb crying,

I didn't expect the skeleton to shed tears too.

Dumb grabbed the bark with both hands, hid behind the tree, cautiously poked his head out, and quietly looked at the little female ape in the ape group.

Dumb is stupid,

She's happy, and it's fine.

Dad is useless, he was taken away when you were three months old, and he can't shelter you from the wind and rain.

But...... Daddy has always loved you.

Dumb has no flesh on his face, so he can't smile anymore.

He grew his mouth and stared blankly into the distance, looking like a fool.

Gao Peng didn't disturb Dumb, so he let Dumb enjoy this beauty quietly.

In the end, Dumb reluctantly let go of his hand, hunched his waist, and carefully hid behind a tree to prevent him from being discovered.

"Shall we go back?" Gao Peng was stunned.

Dumb nodded vigorously.

"Don't you bring your daughter here, don't worry, I'll give her the best life." Gao Peng promised Dumb.

Dumb was a little moved, but in the end he shook his head fiercely, "And me, she's not free." Here she is free. ”

Gao Peng's heart was suddenly shocked.

Suddenly I don't know what to say.

Dumb's big hand was gently on Gao Peng's shoulder, and he looked at the master seriously: "But with the master, I... I'm so happy!"

After confirming that her daughter was okay, Dumb was very satisfied.

Turn around and leave with Gao Peng.

Ban's mood was also infected, a little sullen, as if he had thought of something.

"Bang!"

Suddenly a gunshot rang out behind him.

The sound of gunfire echoed in the forest,

Accompanied by the screams of a swarm of red apes.

Dumb, who had been hanging his head, suddenly froze......
