Chapter 243: Uninvited Guest

He stopped and stayed for a moment, not so much what Yue Yi saw, but what he sensed by the Tianmu Seal Plate. With a normal field of vision, I didn't know that there would be a village in front of me, and even the Tianmu Seal Plate only saw some light faintly. It can only be said that this village is too secretive, according to Yue Yi's guess, it is estimated that no one has ever known that there is such a village in the depths of the forest, if he hadn't come here in a panic, he would have met by chance, I am afraid that he would really pass by.

The village was shrouded in darkness with a slight sense of mystery, and when Yue Yi was still hesitating whether to go in, the roar of a crippled gibbon came from behind him, and it seemed that he had chased after Yue Yi's scent. He frowned slightly, it was too dangerous to practice late at night now, so it was better to take refuge in that village and wait until daytime to get out of this forest. After making up his mind, Yue Yi took Xiao Tian and walked in the direction of the hidden village.

Passing through a large area of deep mountains and old forests and a narrow path, there are some rotting corpses of strange beasts everywhere along the way, presumably killed by the people of this village. Yue Yi finally entered the valley where the village was located, this valley was really a paradise, with a radius of dozens of miles, very open, with meadows and forests, and he could vaguely see that there was a small lake in the center of the valley, reflecting the moon in the water, and this village was built around the lake.

I don't know if it's an illusion, he originally thought that the valley was very cool, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came in, a sultry breath came to his face, and the temperature of this air suddenly rose a lot, if a person with a wood attribute entered here, I am afraid that he would withdraw as soon as possible, but fortunately, Yue Yi cultivated the fire attribute, this kind of high temperature that ordinary people could not bear, but it was a comfortable feeling for him. He vaguely felt that if he could stay in this village for a longer time, then his foundation would definitely be able to lay a solid foundation.

Ding!

"There's an outsider intruding, come and intercept it!" a loud voice filled the valley.

As soon as Yue Yi stepped out of the path that could only accommodate two people, he heard a rapid ringing of bells and shouts. A moment later, many Dao figures immediately appeared here, and these figures were all holding torches, surrounding Yue Yi, and they could vaguely use the light of the torches to see everyone's vigilant expressions.

"Who are you and why are you here?" asked an old man wearing a broken straw hat from the crowd, half of his face hidden in the shadow of the straw hat, and his voice hoarse.

Yue Yi glanced at the crowd surrounding him here, most of these people were wearing animal skins, and each of them exuded a dangerous aura like a beast, it seemed that they fought with strange beasts on weekdays. The old man who was talking in front of him was thin and weak, and he looked a little weak, but looking like this, he should be a more prestigious person in this group.

After hearing the other party's question, he replied helplessly: "I am a casual cultivator, when I entered the forest to practice, I was chased and killed by a stump ape with a triple silver mirror, and finally ran into the depths of the forest with my partner in a panic, and inadvertently broke into here. If there is any disturbance, then when the gibbon is gone, I will leave immediately. ”

As soon as everyone heard that the young man in front of them was being chased and killed by the gibbon monkey, their faces changed slightly, as the original residents, of course they knew the name of that guy, this kind of gibbon monkey was extremely powerful, and under one punch, few opponents of the same level could block it. This young man looked like he was only twenty years old, and he only had the strength of a nine-fold bronze body mirror, and he dared to go deep into the forest to practice, and successfully escaped under the pursuit of the gibbon monkey, and his eyes were a little incredulous. He glanced down at the green cow beside the young man, and found that the ordinary green cow outside turned out to be a double silver mirror, and his eyes were a little sudden.

"What you said is not convincing, because we have been here for twenty years, and no outsiders have broken into here, if it wasn't premeditated in advance, how could we have discovered that hidden path?" The old man looked at Yue Yi with that cloudy gaze, perhaps because the other party revealed a fiery aura, which made the old man's attitude soften.

Roar!

Before Yue Yi could explain, the roar of the crippled gibbon came from outside the cave, it didn't find the hidden path, it just walked on the other side, and the roar was extremely unwilling, as if it was his shame to let Yue Yi escape. After searching around for a moment, he continued his way deeper into the forest.

Yue Yi spread his hands and continued with a helpless expression: "Look, what I said is indeed the truth, if you don't let the living people into the village, then just say it, after half an hour, the gibbon monkey has no sign of turning back, then I will leave this place as soon as possible, what do you think?"

Yue Yi also understood their vigilance very well, there had been no outsiders here for twenty years, and his appearance like this would definitely attract some hostility, and he didn't want any conflict to break out now. In Yue Yi's impression, these villagers who live in seclusion and isolation are simple and hospitable, if they weren't born in troubled times, how could they have such hospitality?

"Elder, let's not believe what this man says, he must not be a good person to appear here on this big night. ”

"Don't let him go, if he goes out and tells others, then our village will be exposed. ”

"In order to avoid long nights and dreams, we will get rid of the uninvited guest in front of us as soon as possible......"

The sturdy young men around all said to the old man, analyzing the seriousness of the other party's departure. For the sake of the secret of this village, it is better to kill by mistake than to let it go. The more these people talked, the more solemn their expressions became, and in the end, they all raised their torches, and there was a great tendency for the old man to quickly capture Yue Yi as soon as he gave the order.

Hearing the other party's whisper, Yue Yi did not turn around and flee for the first time, but calmly looked at the old man's cloudy eyes, the old man could sense that the young man in front of him was not simple, in addition to feeling the hot fire attribute breath on his body, he also smelled a familiar smell, but he couldn't remember when he had been exposed to this breath, and then waved his hand, suppressed everyone's boos, and said to Yue Yi: " You go into the village with us first, as for whether you can leave this village or not, the village chief has the final say, don't try to escape, you can't escape. ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, Yue Yi could sense a strange energy plucking from behind him, and these energies were a little wrinkled, as if the space was sealed. The strange beasts outside can't get in, and the people inside can't get out, obviously this is a small formation, Yue Yi didn't expect this small village to have such a powerful formation, he didn't think about running away, but smiled lightly: "Old gentleman, for you, I'm an uninvited guest from outside, you can rest assured that I will come to the village to rest, aren't you afraid that I will be bad for your village?"

The old man who was about to turn around paused, turned sideways again, glanced at the green ox beside Yue Yi, and then said: "Young man, don't think that a strange beast with a silver body mirror can do whatever you want, you will be hunted down in the forest, and in this village, you will also end up like this, so I advise you to be honest and don't have any crooked thoughts." ”

The young men with torches around them didn't expect the elders to make such a decision, and they were inevitably a little uneasy in their hearts, and one of the tiger-headed young men jumped out and said with strong opposition: "No, no, no, this guy is not a good person at first glance, if my grandfather sees him, he will be killed in an instant, it is better to solve it directly here." ”

Yue Yi was stunned for a moment, looking at the young man who suddenly jumped out of the crowd, about twelve or thirteen years old, a little boy with red cheeks and black hair, bright eyes, a bright silver collar around his neck, and the appearance of his hands on his waist seemed to be not afraid of heaven and earth, but the cowardice in his eyes betrayed his current state.

"With such a spirit, who is your grandfather?" Yue Yi asked with some amusement.

"Hmph, it's scared to death when you say it, my grandfather is the head of this village, how about it, are you afraid?" The young man looked at Yue Yi, then raised his neck, and said with some smugness.

"Huzi, don't talk too much, your grandfather will make his own judgment on this matter, and this person is also a fire attribute. Your grandfather also confessed that as long as he cultivates the fire attribute, he will be let live, just like a man who strayed here twenty years ago, and the current situation is very similar, and I smell a familiar smell from him, I guess there should be something between the two of them. The old man scolded and set his eyes on Yue Yi.

Twenty years ago, someone also strayed here? Hearing the old man's words, Yue Yi was a little surprised and curious, the other party said that he had a familiar smell on his body, what was going on? Could it be that when he was halfway there, among the people he came into contact with, there were people who left this village twenty years ago? Then this is too coincidental, and he asked in disbelief: "Old man, you said that I have the breath of that man on my body, how is this possible, I have only been in contact with mercenaries all the way, it won't be such a coincidence, right?"

"That's right, then I'll verify it. ”

The old man stretched out a dry palm like lightning and walked away angrily at Yue Yi's chest, and there was a flame swirling between the palm wind, making the entire palm red.

When he saw the other side, he said that he would make a move, Yue Yi was not polite, he gave a palm lightly, and his palms were separated with a touch, Yue Yi took three steps back to unload the strength, but the old man still maintained the posture of the palm. At this time, Yue Yi raised his head violently and looked at the old man with some surprise, and there was a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

"The feeling of this flame is familiar, and I do seem to have encountered ...... somewhere."
