248 The Forester of Old Merlin
Ao Ape didn't understand that in this world, there was still such a ruthless hand, and with only one leg, one of his subordinates was trampled to death.
"There is no doubt that it must be a man of the sea." The old man in the cloak sneered.
The ape frowned, and the group went to find the matter of the ancient beast, but it was extremely secretive, and the news still leaked.
"That old man should have been taken away a long time ago!" Ao Ape regretted it a little, to be honest, he was really a little scared, afraid that those ancient martial arts families would know, and afraid that Xu An would know.
Thinking of Xu An, Ao Ape couldn't help but panic inexplicably.
"What's going on over there on Imperial Island?"
One of his subordinates hurriedly spoke, "The person who is watching over there has come to report that Xu An is still on the island and has never been to sea." ”
The ape breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a deep voice, "Go and find out the news of the old man quickly, no matter what, you must find it." ”
There are really not many ancient beasts, especially the kind of violent beasts that are even more difficult to find.
The ape is not willing to give up any opportunity.
On the coast, Zhong Nanyu pouted, but in the end he didn't dare to be disobedient, took Sun Pei, and returned to Emperor Island first according to Xu An's wishes.
"Old Merlin in the western suburbs, the forest keeper's surname is Ge, you said I asked you to come." Sun Pei was not at ease, so he told again.
By now, he finally slowly believed in Xu An.
After bidding farewell to Zhong Nanyu and the two, Xu An returned to Yecheng.
I changed into a set of ordinary peasant clothes, took a long-distance bus in a regular manner, and headed for the western suburbs.
The old plum forest is in Yecheng, the reputation is not obvious, the forest is not big, the plums are astringent and bitter, most of them are people from nearby villages, occasionally go to walk around two steps, pick some wild plums to make wine.
In such an old forest, there is a family of forest guards.
Two or three brick houses, five or six people, leaning against the edge of the old Merlin.
The strangest thing is that this family actually has a large warehouse, about ten meters long, which is said to be used to store old plum wood, and cannot see water.
After getting out of the car and walking for several hours, Xu An arrived at Lao Meilin.
A tall and thin old man, with Erlang's legs crossed, smoking a hookah, looked up at Xu An from time to time.
"The surname Ge?" The old man asked.
Xu An nodded.
"Straight to the point."
Xu An breathed a sigh of relief, "Professor Sun's meaning is to let you close the underground palace. ”
"If the dungeon is closed, it won't live long."
Xu An didn't understand, in fact, he wanted to know more, is this family related to that mysterious organization?
There were five or six people, and only the old man and his son stood in front of Xu An.
"Sun Pei called you here, I shouldn't have doubted it, but there is one thing I want to tell you, you came a year late, I can't be the master." The old man's words were faintly sad.
"What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting, in other words, now I'm the head of the Ge family." Behind the old man, the white-faced son suddenly opened his mouth.
The old man sighed, grabbed his cigarette pouch and walked back.
This is only a few people, and there are still family heads......
Xu An was a little speechless, so he had to talk to the young man again.
"My father told you that if the underground palace is really closed, it won't live long, if you don't believe it, you can go and see, the Ge family doesn't lie."
Xu An was silent, he heard what the young man meant, as if he was unwilling to close the underground palace.
If it is not about the underground palace, then this ancient beast has the possibility of being in the world.
"Turn it off." Xu An raised his head.
The young man shook his head, "I told you, you can go and see what's going on inside." Rest assured, it's still sleeping. ”
Out of the consideration of knowing himself and the other, Xu An finally agreed, followed behind the young man, and went to see the black-bodied ancient beast in Sun Pei's mouth, what was it?
Maybe after figuring out the mechanism of the dungeon, you can be strong.
The young man walked very slowly, and as he walked through the courtyard, the old man raised his head with a slightly painful expression.
The young man unlocked the large warehouse near the brick house, pushed the door, and walked in slowly.
"Come in, it's inside."
Xu An smiled and stepped in.
In the middle of the warehouse, there is a cave, two or three meters wide, and in the cave, there are stone stairs of one step.
The stone staircase is very deep, and there is a faint rotten gas spreading out.
The young man waved at Xu An with a torch and walked down.
"Come and see if I'm talking big."
"Actually, this ancient beast should not belong to the evil beast, and it has never hurt anyone in the past thousands of years."
"The first part is, you follow me."
The wind picked up, and the sand was in the wind, and after a long walk down, the foul rotten smell finally grew bigger and bigger.
Reflecting the torches of the young man, Xu An vaguely saw that in a basement as big as a playground, there was something like a long snake coiled, with its head shrunk, and it was not clear for a while, but Xu An recognized it, as Sun Pei said, this ancient beast was really a long black torso.
"There's a bamboo slip here, I don't move anything, you come and take a look."
Hearing this, Xu An's head shook, could it be Gu Wu again?
When Xu An approached, his body was suddenly pushed heavily, obviously with great energy, and then, the young man's body quickly jumped back and jumped away.
A broken dragon stone, from the hole in the stone room, suddenly smashed down.
It's too late, it's fast, Xu An let out a low shout, an afterimage burst out, and the whole person jumped forward quickly, jumping out when the broken dragon stone fell.
After taking two breaths, Xu An was furious and raised his fist to blast at the young man.
The young man sneered, did not retreat or coax, and also slashed over with one palm.
Bang!
The huge sound made the giant beast behind the broken dragon stone breathe slightly shorter.
"You're looking for death!" Xu An shouted angrily, and threw another punch with his backhand.
"If you persuade me to trap and kill the black god, aren't you also looking for death!"
In the courtyard, the old man heard the actions of the warehouse, his face was sad, different from his son, he hoped that this evil beast could be trapped in the underground palace forever, and it would not be allowed to go out and harm people.
It's a pity that the head of the family is no longer him.
During the fight, after the young man found out that he was not Xu An's opponent, his expression was instantly fierce, and he whistled extremely strangely.
When he landed, the entire stone chamber shook violently.
Xu An was startled, couldn't care about it anymore, knocked the young man to the ground with a punch, and then swept his body and flew out quickly.
As soon as he landed, he suddenly heard a roar like thunder and the sound of sand and gravel splashing.
A huge head that looked like a dragon and not a dragon poked its head out of the hole, and its eyes as big as lanterns stared directly at Xu An.
Xu An was startled, and hurriedly turned around and wanted to sweep outside the warehouse.
The huge head, as if he hated Xu An, held his head high and gnawed down again.
When he landed, on the floor of the warehouse, he was suddenly gnawed away by this terrifying biting force, and a huge pit several meters wide was gnawed.
Seeing that this ancient beast was about to launch a second attack.
Xu An clenched his fists, his fists flaming, ready to fight to the death.
At this moment, a melodious sound of bamboo flute came from outside the warehouse.
The massive head swayed to the rhythm a few times, then slowly retracted.
"Retreat!" An old man's voice came from outside the warehouse.
When Xu An heard this, he hurriedly jumped back a long distance.
"Father, you dare to disobey the head of the family!" The voice of the young man came from the depths of the cave.
The old man had already walked into the warehouse, his face pale, and then he raised his hand and smashed a stone Buddha statue in the warehouse.
I only heard the sound of the sky falling and the earth cracking, and in the depths of the cave, it seemed that countless boulders had collapsed, shaking people's ears.
This...... It seems that the underground palace is really locked up.
It seems like...... The young man, the son of the old man in front of him, is still in the underground palace.
The old man wiped his face, "Go back and tell Elder Sun, although I am a descendant of the Beast Gate, I still understand the merits, my son has been in contact with the people of the sea, and his temperament has changed greatly, I know it...... This black Jiao has been trapped to death, so you can rest assured. ”
Xu An listened, and while he was moved by the old man's reasoning, he also had doubts in his heart.
Beast Gate? Black Jiao?
Hei Jiao understands that it is probably this ancient beast, but what is the beast gate? Could it be the mysterious organization of the ape?
Could it be that every ancient evil beast has a descendant?
