Chapter 0097: Mystery Tribe
After Guan Heng said this, he and Rong Zheng looked at each other and smiled, after this battle, he had already learned the strength of Geng Shu's kid, and the attack power of the newly acquired Qinyuan Tiger Bee Ghost was not weak, although the raid of the tail sting needle could only be used once a day, but it was undoubtedly a backup killer weapon.

And Geng Shu immediately cut off his arm after being hit, he looked ruthless, this person should not be underestimated, Guan Heng has secretly paid attention, and when he plans to meet that guy again, he must get rid of his hot hands, so as not to cause another disaster.
After a short while, Guan Heng used the medicine to attract birds, and the bird sparrow, eagle eagle, ate all the poisonous insects and snakes on the ground, and everyone was relieved, and then they continued to rush through the mountains and forests.
Along the way, Rong Zheng told Guan Heng that in addition to the four major alien races of the Tianyu tribe, the Moyu tribe, the Zhuqian tribe and the Linghu tribe, there are also many small tribes with different customs inhabiting the vast mountains in this area.
The so-called mud-faced fan tribe is actually no different from ordinary people living in the mountains, but they have a very unique custom, that is, when the whole clan goes into the mountains to hunt, they will use wet mud to evenly smear their faces, which is said to prevent mosquito bites, but also to avoid being discovered by vicious monsters, in addition, it can also ward off evil spirits.
Guan Heng, who was rushing with Rong Zheng, heard this, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Avoid evil spirits?" What does that mean? ”
"As for warding off evil spirits, it actually has something to do with the legend in this mountain." Rong Zheng looked at the path in front of him at this time, and found that he had turned into a narrow and winding mountain road in front of him, and he said to Guan Heng casually: "I have some friendship with the elder of the mud-faced fan clan, and I know some local anecdotes from his mouth. ”
Speaking of this, Rong Zheng paused slightly, and then continued: "More than a hundred years ago, there were still several small tribes living in the surrounding mountains of the mud-faced fan tribe, but one year a terrible monster suddenly appeared in the mountain, that monster is different from ordinary demon beasts, the strength is amazing and will change, eating people everywhere, stirring up the people on the surrounding mountains to die and flee, gradually, it became sparsely populated. ”
Guan Heng blinked his eyes and said, "But those people of the mud-faced fan clan can still live here, so it can be seen that there must be a mystery in it, right?" ”
"Hehehe, Brother Guan is right."
At this moment, Rong Zheng said with a smile: "Those people of the mud-faced fan clan were also frightened by the horror of the monsters in the mountains at first, but then someone came up with an idea, when they entered the mountain, they painted their faces with mud, blended their bodies with the surrounding trees and flowers, and disturbed the monster's sight, so that they could get away with saving their lives when the monsters passed by." ”
"Oh, I see, I see." Guan Heng said casually in his mouth, but he secretly thought in his heart: "What does that monster in the mountains look like and what is his ability?" I'd love to see it, but I'd better not make a fuss about it now. ”
Guan Henggang thought of this, Rong Zheng suddenly said: "Look, there is the village of the mud-faced fan clan in front, and it is now approaching dusk, if you rush at night, it is easy to get lost, let's stay overnight in the local elder's house tonight." ”
Hearing this, Guan Heng bowed slightly: "Okay, it's all up to Brother Rong's arrangement." Guan Heng and the other three took the Ghost Devouring Tiger and the two demon apes into the mud-faced fan clan village not far away, and there was really someone in the village who knew Rong Zheng, and immediately ushered in the elders of the fan clan.
Seeing his old friend Rong Zheng visiting, the Fan Clan Elder was extremely enthusiastic, and he brought a few people into his home, asked the family to prepare meals, and arranged for the Ghost Devourer Tiger and the two giant apes to live.
But Guan Heng found that the faces of the people around him were a little unnatural, they all seemed to have sad faces, and they were absent-minded in their words and actions.
So Guan Heng whispered to Rong Zheng: "Could it be that something happened in this village, why everyone's faces are a little worried, it is obvious that they are in trouble, Brother Rong, you can ask the elders, if you need us to help, you and I can also ......"
"Well, what Brother Guan said also makes sense, the elder has always been very cautious, and he is used to being taciturn, asking him in front of everyone, maybe the elder will not speak." Rong Zheng said to Guan Heng: "In this way, you sit here for a while, and I will go to the elder's room to inquire about the details." ”
Listening to Rong Zheng's words, Guan Heng bowed slightly, and said, "Okay, you go, I'll just wait here." ”
Rong Zheng looked in the direction of the elder's bedroom at this time, where the light was still on, so he walked over and knocked lightly on the door, and then was greeted by the elder.
Guan Heng waited for about a moment, Rong Zheng finally walked out of the room with a calm face, he walked up to Guan Heng and whispered, "Brother, come in with me." ”
Guan Heng glanced at the dog beside him who was leaning on the Ghost Devouring Tiger and fell asleep, as well as the dark crystal coffin, and then nodded: "Okay, let's go." ”
The two entered the room of the Fan Clan elder again, but Guan Heng found that the elder's eyes were red and swollen from crying at this time, he felt a little strange, but it was inconvenient for him to ask, so he glanced at Rong Zheng.
At this time, Rong Zheng closed the door casually, and then said to Guan Heng: "At first, the elder refused to tell the truth, in fact, he was afraid of affecting us, but I repeatedly asked him, and he told me what happened here recently. ”
"Oh, then I'll hear about it too." Guan Heng glanced at the elder at this time, and the latter finally sighed, and then said: "Little brother, I know that you and Patriarch Rong Zheng are concerned about us here and want to help, so I bothered to inquire about the situation, but this matter is really weird to say, I am really afraid that you will be affected......
"Hey, I said Elder, since we're all here, it seems too late to say whether we're even involved or not." Guan Heng smiled slightly at this time: "Don't worry, I plan to hear what is going on first, in case I can't help with this favor, and when the time comes, I will forgive the sin and leave, I guess you won't care, right?" ”
"Alas, it's rare for the little brother to ask, so I'll talk about it." The elder of the Fan Clan actually held back his words, and wanted to find someone to talk to, seeing that Rong Zheng and Guan Heng were so enthusiastic to inquire, he couldn't hide it anymore, so he simply said it all in one go.
It was a few months ago, and the mud-faced people held the largest hunting event of the year in the hottest summer season, as in previous years, and the hunting had to go into the mountains for seven days, that is, all the men and women of the tribe had to smear their faces and bodies with wet mud, animal skins and grass skirts around their waists, and spears and bows in their hands.
Although the man-eating monster appeared in this mountain more than 100 years ago, it has long been only a legend and has not seen the real thing, so the people of the mud-faced fan tribe smeared mud on their faces to hunt, but it was just according to the old customs, and no one took the monster seriously.
