The performance of the iron pillar surprised me. also made the Ma Jian next to him stunned.

Ma Yan said that the iron pillar is a Xuanyuan dog, a precious breed of dogs, and the incarnation of a legendary beast. It just came down from the sky, and I think it's a savior who has come to save us. After all, the name of the divine beast is extraordinary, how can a mere dozens of wild dogs match it.

Unexpectedly, the other party howled wolf, and scared the iron pillar into fleeing with his tail in his hands.

This product has not changed its problem of bullying the soft and being afraid of the hard.

I chased a few steps in a hurry, and my shout still had an effect, the goods ran around, and found that the road had been surrounded by groups and could not run out at all. It staggered back on, leaning on my lap and panting.

I patted Tie Zhu's head: "Tie Zhu, although you can't save us, but you can die in anger, it won't be in vain for me to pick you up." ”

After such an episode, I also wanted to open it. Things have come to this point, and the situation is not easy to change. Zhou Zheng had apparently taken control of the entire Yagu region, where mandrills, mountain dogs, and poisonous insects on the ground were located. None of this is something we can resist.

The dogs roared and pounced again, and the mandrills threw their heads up and pounded their chests like gorillas, and roared.

For a while, the valley was full of ghosts and wolves, and the sound shook the sky. My legs began to weaken, and in the face of this situation, it was already quite awesome that I was not scared to pee.

What I didn't expect was that seeing that we were about to die in the wolf's belly, the situation changed subtly.

First, Iron Pillar noticed the anomaly, and he began to bark at the side of the valley.

I looked over, but there was no movement.

Then the dogs and mandrills besieging us also began to stir up.

I could feel the ground begin to tremble slightly.

Ma Jian is very confident in Tie Zhu: "Tie Zhu is born with a sense of spirit and sensitivity, something must happen." ”

As soon as Ma Yan's words fell, he saw a thick cloud of black smoke suddenly rise from that direction.

Black smoke billed through the air and quickly spread out in all directions. Immediately afterward, the flames rose into the sky, almost turning half of the sky red. A wave of heat also swept in.

Those mandrills and mountain dogs, after all, were also beasts, and they were rushed by this blazing air current, and they were immediately in chaos. After a brief hesitation, they scattered.

This kind of scene is like facing a huge catastrophe and animals are rushing to flee for their lives.

A few of us looked at each other, unaware of what was going on.

Ma Jian looked in that direction and said, "Isn't that the direction of the Bird King Temple?" ”

The third uncle waved his hand: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

We were about to brave the heat wave to go there when we felt the ground tremble violently, as if the sky had cracked. We also had some unsteady footing, staggering to keep our balance.

"Damn. Is there an earthquake? I cursed.

Then we saw a man running from the direction of the fire, and the man was agile and quickly ran in front of us.

At first, I thought it was Zhou Zheng chasing him out, but when I got closer, I found out that he was wearing the same red robe as me, and he was the old stall head who had never shown up.

this

The old stall said that he came in to find the bones of the third uncle, and he never returned. In this way, Ma Jian Liang Yue and I ventured into the cliff valley to find out.

During the time we were besieged by the sand wolf worms, and we entered the tree hole and the burrow, the old stall head never showed up. I almost forgot that there were old stalls here.

The old stall ran closer, snorting and panting with exhaustion, and his face was smoked like the bottom of the pot.

I was about to say something, but the old stall waved his hand: "Don't ask, get out of here first, that place is going to collapse." ”

His feet were still shaking violently, and we didn't dare to ask more questions when we saw the old stall, so we ran down a path in the valley with him.

The old stall was very familiar with the route, leading us to run all the way up a mountainside.

We turned our heads to see where the fire had started.

It turned out to be the hundred-year-old dead tree, burned like a big wax. And the ground around the dead tree is crumbling incessantly.

Less than five minutes after we reached the summit, the ground collapsed with a thud. A puff of smoke rises. Smoke billowed from the collapsed place, and it was clear that a fire had begun underneath as well. It is estimated that those poisonous insects must have died inside.

"Zhou Zheng is still inside......" Ma Jian shouted anxiously.

Xing Mo frowned, and persuaded: "This is called self-inflicted, Zhou Zheng took great pains to discover the secrets here at all costs, and get gentian sand, now he is really accompanied by dry bones and poisonous insects underground." Teacher, there's nothing wrong with that......"

I glanced at the old stall and found that the old stall was not surprised at all by what was happening below, and his expression was still a little excited, and his eyebrows fluttered.

I couldn't help asking, "Master Tan, did you do this?" ”

The old stall didn't answer my words, but suddenly rushed to the realm, knelt on the ground, raised his hands to the sky, and wailed loudly twice.

"Master Tan, what's wrong with you? Crying and laughing ......"

The old stall still ignored it, and cried and howled for more than ten minutes before he recovered, slowly stood up from the ground, and said: "My ancestors were from this Nanliu Village. At that time, the people in the village were bewitched by the insect king Zou Baizu, and they didn't believe in the bird king Qin Wuyu, only my ancestors believed in him, and he left Nanliu Village before the landslide to save his life. Later, it was razed to the ground, and the whole village was killed. Among them, there are many close relatives of our Tan family. Later, my ancestors settled down again in the current Nanliu Village. It was still a wilderness. ”

I nodded, "I see. In this way, you are avenging your ancestors and the people of the village. ”

The old stall smiled miserably: "The ancestors left their ancestral teachings to avenge the whole village." But the initiator is the insect king, how can we ordinary people fight against him? I have been guarding the ancestral teachings, guarding this cliff valley, and it has been passed down to my generation. My ancestors had spirits, so I seized this opportunity. As a bone picker, I often go in and out of the valley. I discovered the cave, and I knew that it was an evil place designed by the Worm King. I want to borrow the corpse bones of the whole village and those insect zombies to resurrect myself. That Zhou Zheng is a worm

Wang Zou Baizu's descendants, I naturally will not let him go. Nor can we allow the evil land to continue to exist. ”

I asked, "We just came here and found a figure, is that you?" ”

The old stall nodded: "It's me." I didn't dare to show my face at that time, I was looking for an opportunity. ”

I looked at the large area of collapsed ground and asked, "But how did you get that place down?" ”

The third uncle said: "It's that tree, that hundred-year-old dead tree." The whole cavern, and the evil spirits within, depend on this dead tree for balance. This balance is not only a balance in feng shui, but also a structural balance. This is also the intention of the bird king Qin Wuyu at the beginning. By destroying the tree and lacking the support of its roots, this balanced structure is destroyed and everything ceases to exist. ”
