We almost held our breath and curled up in the grass, and in a moment we heard the movement of the magic flower mantis all around, perhaps because of the loss of prey, the magic flower mantis stopped and searched around us. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wielding huge, sharp tentacles, I easily cut down trees that blocked our view, one of them stopped less than three steps away from us, and my palms were interspersed with vines, and I desperately gritted my teeth and endured the severe pain, through the cracks in the grass, I could finally see the whole picture of this strange witch so closely.

It is no different from a normal magic flower mantis, but it is extremely demonic, this monster is more than two meters tall, and its body is wrapped in tightly sealed bronze armor, reflecting a breathtaking blue light under the moonlight, and a pair of eyes are keenly searching in the dark, and it seems to be able to see through everything.

There are strange patterns on the bronze armor, which have distinct Jiuli characteristics, which are exactly the same as the magic flower mantis I saw in the Temple of the Ancestral God.

What surprised me the most was that these strange witches did not seem to be simple mutated monsters, they seemed to have thoughts and consciousness, and the magic flower mantis standing next to us made strange sounds, as if they were communicating with other magic flower mantises.

Soon the witches who stopped chasing continued to search, and the magic flower mantis that stopped next to us looked around for a long time, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the mountain forest.

Hearing the sound of fading away until it disappeared, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and fell limply in the grass, still not daring to move, for fear that the slightest sound would lead to destruction.

We were in a stalemate in the grass until dawn, and after making sure that the magic flower mantis did not turn back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Zhiqiu only saw the wound on my hand at this time, maybe the wound was too shocking, and she was a little helpless with a heartache.

Ye Jiuqing picked up a finger-thick branch from the ground and asked me to bite it in my mouth: "Bear with it." ”

I knew that Ye Jiuqing wanted to help me pull the vine out of the palm of his hand, took a deep breath and bit the branch, turned his head and didn't even dare to look at it, Gong Jue stretched out his hand to me, I grabbed his arm tightly, and I felt a sudden sharp pain coming from the palm of my hand.

With a click, I bit off the branch in my mouth, and the fingers that grabbed Gong Jue's arm were almost stuck in his body, Gong Jue was a little unbearable, I let go of my hand weakly, gasped and turned my head to see that Ye Jiuqing had pulled out the tree vines, and the blood from the wound in the palm of my hand was dripping to the ground like a spring.

"What now?" Gong Jue asked as he helped me bandage my wounds.

"The appearance of the Demon Flower Mantis means that this place is not far from the Demon Kingdom, but with this thing, we estimate that there is no chance to get close to the Demon Kingdom at all." I resisted the pain and said worriedly. "Presumably from now on, the Demon Flower Mantis will chase and intercept us."

"God created the witch in the first place to protect, so it is extremely aggressive, and the witch is the most devout believer, and will do whatever it takes to carry out the divine will left by God without any doubt or fear." The high priest said.

I looked at the bandaged hand, my eyes fell on the blood dripping from the ground, and I frowned and muttered: "It's strange, I am actually invincible to all kinds of poison and am not afraid of any strange witches, it stands to reason that my blood can dispel strange witches, but why didn't I react to the magic flower mantis?" ”

"I have seen this kind of witch in the pattern engraved on the skull, and from the records, it belongs to the first batch of witches created by God, perhaps in order to ensure that the demon kingdom is not invaded by anyone without permission, God used a special method when creating the magic flower mantis." The high priest said with trepidation.

Wen Ru on the other side, from the altar of the hidden capital to here, he could hardly be heard talking along the way, and now his eyes fell on my injured hand, and he didn't care at all, but was full of joy: "You now understand why I'm going to the demon kingdom, because even the divine blood on your body is not the most complete, and only the real god can control these strange witches." ”

I stared at Wen Ru coldly, although I hated this person, but what he said was not unreasonable, in the end, I am no different from the Demon Flower Mantis, I am just another kind of witch.

I may be more perfect than the Demon Flower Mantis, more conscious and thinking, closer to God, but when the Ancestral God created the Twelve Gods, he did not set the type of attack, but the Demon Flower Mantis did not need all this, they only needed to use killing to protect the Demon Kingdom.

They must have survived here for thousands of years, and every grass and tree is familiar to their hearts, we don't have to say to find the demon country, it is estimated that as long as they leave this grass, it will not be long before they will be discovered by the magic flower mantis.

The Demon Kingdom, which is obviously close at hand, is now impossible for us to get close to.

"What is this, is it possible that we are going to be trapped here all the time." Tian Ji was so anxious that he punched the tree next to him. "Ah......h

Tian Ji's exclamation made us look up at him, and Tian Ji covered his hands with a painful expression.

"What's wrong?" Xue Xinrou asked.

"What the hell is this, why is it so hard?" Tian Ji looked at the stump in front of him in surprise.

Hearing what the field chicken said, I noticed that the stump was covered with vines and branches and leaves, but after walking in the Jiulian Mountains for so many days, I had never seen such a short tree, and the height was about the same as that of the field chicken.

And it looks completely different from the surrounding trees, at least we can't see the dense canopy, and the pheasant fell a few times, and some curiously pulled away the branches and leaves outside to see what it was.

Suddenly, Tian Ji staggered back a step, his face was panicked, and the gun in his hand was also raised: "No, it's not a tree!" ”

We were taken aback, and we all stood up and stepped back, but for a long time, the thing didn't move, and I lowered my voice and asked, "What do you see?" ”

"Eyes and heads......" Tian Ji replied incoherently, attentively and guardedly. I didn't see it clearly, it's definitely not a tree anyway. ”

After waiting for a long time and seeing no response, Ye Jiuqing took a deep breath, held the knife and walked over cautiously and slowly, picking apart the branches and leaves with the tip of the knife, and then we saw a fierce face, but it was not a human face, the face was like a bull's head, three heads and six arms, and his body was covered with bronze, like a warrior wearing armor with a copper head and iron forehead, and each side of his hands held knives, axes, guns and halberds and other weapons.

"Chiyou!" The high priest was shocked.

We slowly stepped forward, and then we saw that it was a statue of Chiyou, but the carving was so realistic that the field chicken was frightened, and the statue knelt down with a pious and respectful expression.

"Chiyou is the guardian of the ancestral god, and when he appears here, it can be seen that the demon kingdom is not far from here." I said with a sigh of relief.

"Judging from the craftsmanship of the statue, it has the specificity of the late Jiuli period, so it can be seen that this statue was placed here later." Ye Zhiqiu looked around a little blankly. "But the strange thing is that since Chiyou is the guardian of the gods, he will not be placed casually for no reason, what is the reason why the statue is left here?"

We quickly cleaned the vines on the outside of the statue, and when the complete Chiyou statue was presented to us, everyone was amazed, the statue was so lifelike that every detail was perfect, and we couldn't find anything to find fault with.

The three-sided ox head is wearing a three-eyed unicorn mask, which is the eternal life given by God to Chiyou, no wonder Jiulian Mountain is also known as Jiuli Mountain, according to legend, this is the last homeland of Chiyou, it seems that the rumors are not groundless.

"If this statue is from the Western Jin Dynasty, it doesn't make sense." Ye Zhiqiu was at a loss and muttered to himself.

"Where doesn't it make sense?" Huang Ping asked.

"The carving skills of the descendants of Jiuli are known for their roughness and heroism, and this statue is meticulously crafted, although it has distinctive Jiuli characteristics, but it is certain that even the current descendants of Jiuli cannot carve such a perfect Chiyou." Wen Ru's voice came from behind us.

Although no one paid attention to him, he had spent his entire life studying the ancestral gods and Jiuli culture, and he did know this better than we knew.

"That's what I thought too." Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said to us.

"That's really a little strange, only the descendants of Jiuli are worshipped by Chiyou, but since this statue is not from the hands of Jiuli people, and the purpose of placing it here is unknown." Gong Jue's eyebrows furrowed slightly. "As the guardian of the gods, there should be a very important reason for appearing here."

"This ...... What is this? I heard Xue Xinrou's surprised voice.

I turned my head and found that she had been staying in the grass where we had been hiding, half-kneeling on the ground, staring at something, and walked to Xue Xinrou's side, and saw that she was staring at the blood that had flowed from my wound before.

At that time, it was very dark, and everyone was hiding from the Demon Flower Mantis, and I didn't notice the changes on the ground at all, and my blood was spreading around, and I opened the grass on the ground to find that there was actually a stone slab underneath.

There are inscribed grooves on the stone slabs, along which my dripping blood flows, and now they are clearly visible before our eyes.

A blood-colored three-eyed unicorn.

The slab was covered in grass, presumably left here with the statue of Chiyou, and I watched as the blood drew a three-eyed unicorn pattern in the grooves, and then began to flow in all directions, drawing evenly spaced lines of blood.

One, two, three...... Twelve!

I counted the blood paths that appeared, no more, no less, exactly twelve, centered on the stone slab, spreading out in all directions, and one of them flowed towards the statue of Chiyou that we found.

Seeing this, I was suddenly shocked in my heart, and hurriedly looked around, only to find that the Chiyou statue was not one, but exactly twelve, because the age was completely obscured by the vines and branches, and the surrounding trees were forested, it was not easy to find at all.

I hurriedly asked everyone to clean up the remaining eleven Chiyou statues, each one was exactly the same, and the skill was exquisite and lifelike, kneeling on one knee in a uniform manner, one of the three heads on the body was impartially facing the three-eyed unicorn pattern in the middle.

The whole group of carvings is unusually solemn, but I can't think of the meaning and purpose of these Chiyou statues kneeling here.
