Chapter 277: The Sleeping Man

"What are you doing!" I was startled, and I wanted to break free when I pulled my hand, but Shou Mei suddenly turned his face, which caught people off guard.

"What are you going to the Mountain of Life and Death for?" Shou Mei added a lot of strength to his hand, and I immediately struggled to move, but he still didn't seem to deliberately embarrass me, and aggravated his tone, saying, "I won't want your life, why are you panicking!" ”

"What are you going to do, at least tell me clearly." I was grabbed by Shou Mei with one hand, and I had to hold the child with the other, to this point, I had to face any result, but I always wanted to figure it out, at least I wouldn't be so aggrieved.

"Put this doll aside for now, and don't let her get in the way." Shou Mei pointed to a stone cave at the root of the mountain wall next to it, that stone cave may have lived in the past, I made a fire in the cave and settled the child.

When all this was done, I got out of the stone cave alone, Shou Mei looked at me, and then at the Usumu not far away, and said, "Come on, I know that you want to figure out what is going on, then let you see this Usumu first." ”

Ten meters away, a few steps away, Shou Mei circled around the thick Wusu wood, there was a layer of ice on the tree, he turned his head to look at me, and said, "The hope of your seven gates of the river is on this tree." ”

"How?" I listened to Shou Mei's words and became more and more aware of the importance of this tree.

"Just look at it." Shou Mei didn't reply anymore, and reached out to wipe off all the ice ballast on the tree, and when the frozen ice was cleared, I saw at a glance that there was a long scar on the trunk, the scar was at least more than a meter long, and it looked like a crack in the thick tree. Shou Mei put the torch next to the scar and said, "Take a closer look." ”

I also stretched out my flashlight and shone it on the scar on the trunk of the tree, which looked like it had been cut by a knife, and it could not be fully healed, and there was a gap about half a palm's width in the middle. It was far away, and I couldn't see anything clearly, so I couldn't help but get closer.

I was taken aback by the scar in the trunk of the tree. It was the face of an old man, his eyes closed, like an old ghost, as if he had fallen into a slumber with no end and no end. I immediately understood that there was a person in this Usu tree, a sleeping person.

Things are completely clear, the old ghost values the tree of the Mountain of Life and Death so much, and the meaning is not in the tree itself, but in the person in the tree!

My mind was chaotic for a while, and I was sober for a while, and all kinds of details and clues from the past were dangling in my mind like a horse, Shou Mei didn't explain it to me, but I had vaguely guessed the hidden meaning here. Shou Mei said very clearly, this tree, or the people in this tree, is the hope of our Hezi Seven Gates.

"Do you see?" Shou Mei interrupted my train of thought again and asked me.

"I see, I see," I muttered to myself, looking at the motionless old man through the gap in the trunk, and I felt an indescribable sadness in my heart: "This is our old palm lamp, it is the old palm lamp is huge"

"You're smart enough to guess." The corners of Shou Mei's mouth grinned slightly, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Wusumuli, is our old palm lamp, then, you are" I looked at Shou Mei and said, "You are Zhonghu?" ”

This speculation swirled in my heart, and I really felt that Shou Mei was Zhong Hu, because apart from him, I couldn't think of anyone else who could shake back the hordes of Sacred Domain people like this. But is it possible? Everyone knows that the Sanctuary and our Seven Gates are mortal enemies who have been enmity for thousands of years, and they are entangled in grievances and grievances. Since Zhonghu is still in the Mountain of Life and Death, will he keep the huge?

But when he thought about it again, he remembered what Shou Mei had just said, and what he didn't expect the most was the impermanence of creation in this world.

"That's right, I'm Zhonghu, and I've been guarding this tree here for two years." Shou Mei was identified by me, and admitted it bluntly, he touched the trunk of the Wusu wood, and said: "There is still time, if you want to know, I will tell you the matter clearly." ”

The two of us sat next to Usumu, and I kept turning my head to look at Usumu, who was the old ghost's father. The two generations of the Pang family, from huge to old ghosts, are hot-blooded, but the father and son have ended up like this, like a dead living person, sleeping without dying, and the sadness in his heart is beyond words.

Zhonghu began to speak slowly, he spoke very clearly, and I also understood very clearly. Zhonghu was known as the number one master of the Holy Domain, whether it was or not, it's hard to say, but there is no doubt that this is definitely a rare strong man, in order to contain Zhonghu, the huge and lonely westward, the two of them encountered in the snow-capped mountains outside the Holy Domain, tumbling and rolling for a long time, chess opponents, difficult to distinguish between up and down.

"He can't kill me, I can't kill him, I was still a mortal enemy at that time, I just thought that I could destroy the huge of the Seven Gates, the entire Seven Gates, and even the entire Great River Beach, there would be no one who could compete with the Holy Domain."

With this in mind, Zhonghu slowly ran towards the depths of the snow-capped mountain, wanting to lure the huge to the holy area. Huge chased all the way, they directly entered the mountain road of the Mountain of Life and Death from one end of the Great Rift Valley, this place is usually no one close except for worshipping ancestors, the two masters of the world are fighting again in the mountain road, and the huge heart also knows that as long as he is rushed by Zhonghu to the Mountain of Life and Death, it will attract more masters of the Holy Domain, so he is desperately entangled to fight with Zhonghu in the Mountain of Life and Death. The skills of the two people are almost the same, and if they fight to the death like that, it is likely to end up being burned. The situation at that time was not favorable to the huge, so the thought of life and death was completely put aside. I can imagine the scene at that time, a person like Huge, even if he fought for his own life, would sweep away the biggest threat of Zhonghu for the Seven Gates.

The result of the matter is obvious, the two of them fought weakly in the end, and they were both fatally injured, and the huge injuries were more serious, and in the end they couldn't even fight, and they faced the dilemma of mortality. When they died, Zhonghu also had to die, and in the end, when there was really no way, that Wusumu saved their lives. The legendary Usumu has the divine use of resurrecting the dead, and although it is rumored to be false, the divine wood has a certain use after all.

"At that time, none of us cared about anyone, so one of us dug a hole in a tree in the Usu wood and hid in it to save our lives." Zhonghu smiled heavily, the smile was very complicated and a little bitter: "Neither I nor Dada thought that this hiding would be so many years. ”

The two men were seriously injured and dying, and after hiding in the Usumu, they fell asleep at once. Usumu kept them alive and didn't lose their breath, but they couldn't wake up for a while. Being in a deep sleep, I don't know the length of the sun and the moon, no one knows that the two of them are sleeping in the Usu wood like this, and since then, Dada and Zhonghu seem to have suddenly disappeared into the world, and there is no more news. After so many years of no news, the people in the Holy Domain thought that Zhonghu was dead, and the people of the Seven Gates also thought that the old man was going to the west to be more auspicious.

It wasn't until two years ago that Zhonghu was the first to wake up, raised for almost a month, and returned to normal. But he didn't expect that this slumber, decades passed in a flash, and time changed something, so that Zhonghu's original intention had to be changed with it.

The Sacred Domain adheres to the belief that Chiyou occupied the Snow Mountain at that time, and it has always been like this since ancient times, but in the later stage of Zhonghu and the huge sleep, the belief of the Sacred Domain has undergone some changes, and it has reconnected with Jiuli in the south. Chiyou occupied the Snow Mountain as a stronghold back then, just to create a great chaos in the world and subvert the Central Plains ruled by Emperor Shun. Later generations of the Sacred Domain people have always been aiming for this, but in the past few years, the Sacred Domain has made peace with Jiuli, and their beliefs have changed from "chaos" to "control".

"What are they thinking, you know?" Zhonghu said: "If you want to dominate the world in the chaos, the Holy Land and Jiuli are divided into north and south, and each side is unified." ”

I immediately realized that a person like Zhong Hu had lived for so many years, and his mind was astute to a considerable extent, and he had a disagreement with the current beliefs of the Holy Domain, and the original clan had become enemies with different Dao differences, and it was for this reason that Zhong Hu wanted to keep the huge and use the power of the Seven Gates to contain the Holy Domain.

"My son, who was expelled from the Holy Land as a traitor, went away, I didn't leave, I wanted to guard the huge here, and wait for him to wake up, but I waited for more than a year." Zhonghu shook his head and said, "He never woke up, I can't help it." ”

Zhong Hu is known as the first master of the Holy Domain, and the news of his awakening has long been discovered by the people of the Holy Domain, but after Zhong Liancheng left, Zhong Hu was the only one to guard the entrance of the mountain road of the Mountain of Life and Death, and the Holy Land did not know how many times he came to attack and kill, but he was blocked back by Zhong Hu, this is just a temporary stability, the huge situation is not so good, as long as he leaves Wusumu, it will definitely be in danger, Zhong Hu can only wait, waiting for the huge to wake up. The old ghost did get mixed up in the Mountain of Life and Death at that time, but he couldn't wake up his father, so he could only return to the big river beach with relevant information to ask for help.

"I've made things clear to you, but if anything, I still have to say it first." Zhong Hu stretched out his hand and slowly pointed at Wu Sumu, and said, "You have a chance to awaken the huge, but as long as you make a move, the breath of your reincarnation seal may lead some things in the holy realm to come out, and I may not be able to control that thing, once I can't control it, there will be danger." ”

"Can I wake up the massive? How to do it! You tell me how!? ”

"Don't worry, the old guy of the Holy Hall won't be out for the time being, you have time to think about it, this is a risky move, and it is also a battle for luck, and the breath of the reincarnation seal on your body will not alarm that thing." Zhonghu gritted his teeth, squeezed out a smile from between his teeth, and said, "Good luck, we rescued Da Da, three people are not in danger, bad luck, all three of them will die!" It's a matter of life, you have to figure it out! Figure it out! ”
