The black shadow flickered and disappeared, and not only did I see it, but the Night General and the panda also heard the movement.

The two of them also looked back in amazement, only to hear that there seemed to be rocks sliding down the mountain wall behind them, and bones falling on the mountain road, making a heart-palpitating sound in the middle of the night......

The panda asked in a low voice, what was this.

I whispered, I saw a black shadow just now, and it seemed to be a few dozen steps behind us.

The Night General flapped his wings, wanting to go back and see. Panda and I were worried that something would happen to General Night, so we hurriedly followed.

Although we fled the village in the middle of the night, we should not have turned back. Escaping for life is a "no turning back", but there is this terrifying black shadow behind us, which always makes us feel uneasy, and it is inevitable that we will not be upset if we don't look at it.

After walking back for a few dozen steps, we finally came to the position where we had just seen the black shadow.

The location was around the corner of a mountain road, and it was very easy to hide people in dark corners, but when we came, there was no one here.

Of course, the shadow was gone, and with the obscuration of the rock wall, it could retreat at any moment.

"Gone?" The panda asked in a low voice, then walked over and quietly prostrated on the ground to check if there were any signs of trampling on the road.

But after a while, the panda shook his head and got up, and said in a low voice: "There is no trace of anything, this black shadow is either a person who is very good at hiding, or ...... It's not human. โ€

The panda's words made me break out in a cold sweat again, and General Night flapped his wings and flew high, went to look around in the distance, and still shook his head helplessly when he came back, and found nothing.

Seeing that the time is passing by minute by second, we are wearing jade shoes, we can't waste time here, even if we don't know the whereabouts of this mysterious black shadow, we should leave quickly.

After getting back on the road, the three of us were a little frightened, looking back at the situation behind us from time to time, worried that the mysterious black shadow had just emerged.

However, the shadow never appeared again, and I even began to think that the shadow that had just appeared was just my own hallucination...... But when the rocks fell on the mountain wall, everyone could see it clearly, this can't be my hallucination, right?

The mountain road was rugged, and it was hard to walk after all, and after about five minutes or so, we suddenly saw a light coming from behind us...... Heilong Mountain is very remote, especially at night, there are almost no pedestrians on the mountain road, so this beam of light is particularly weird.

We looked back and saw the roar of engines on the mountain road behind us. Listening to the movement should be a motorcycle, and this light is naturally generated by the motorcycle lights.

Seeing the headlights from far and near, the night general croaked, shouting that the pursuers were coming, and they were going to be finished.

I didn't think I could be afraid of just chasing a motorcycle.

Of course, we couldn't run on two legs, and it only took about five minutes for the motorcycle to catch up with us.

Looking back, I saw a heroic young man riding on a motorcycle, not wearing a helmet (this is not safe, please do not imitate), chasing us at a gallop.

Under the light, I recognized this kid as the blue-eyed boy "Xiao Xuan" of the Zhang family who gave orders during the day, and I was very dissatisfied with his commanding and condescending posture, so I didn't have a good impression of him. Seeing this kid catching up on a motorcycle, I wondered: Could it be that he is ready to deal with the three of us alone? That's too much to do.

Xiao Xuan rode up to us and made a slightly contrived "tail flick" in front of us, and this guy used a motorcycle to cross the mountain road, blocking our way.

I stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Is there something wrong with you?" โ€

Xiao Xuan smiled coldly, looked at us with a pair of blue eyes, and said, "You fled in a hurry in the middle of the night on the third watch, does this mean that our heirloom is on you?" โ€

I sneered, looked at him and asked, "This village is not a prison, and we have not broken the law, and we are free to enter and exit, do we still need your Zhang Gongzi's permission?" โ€

Xiao Xuan didn't get angry when he saw that I didn't cooperate, he just looked at us coldly.

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned back and pointed to the mountains in front of us, and said, "You can go if you want, I won't stop you, there are many of you, and I can't stop you." But I have two things to tell you. โ€

Speaking of this, Xiao Xuan's expression suddenly became very serious: "First, with only the two of you, it is impossible to get out of this Black Dragon Mountain. Second, my people and I will definitely find the heirlooms. โ€

Xiao Xuan is a cold character, which may have something to do with the fact that he has been a descendant of the family since he was a child. It seemed that he didn't mean to clash with us this time, and after saying these two words, the kid stepped sideways on the motorcycle and walked away from us in a gust of wind.

It comes and goes fast, and this guy is like a thunderstorm.

Looking at Xiao Xuan's back, the three of us were a little surprised.

Did he really come here to tell us a few words?

Seeing Xiao Xuan's motorcycle disappear into the mountain road, we were still ready to turn around and continue on the road.

And just as we turned around, the panda suddenly pointed to a position on the mountainside in front of us and whispered, "Look, there's someone there!" โ€

Following the prestige, I saw that there was indeed a figure on the mountain road in front of me, this figure was hazy, but it could be seen that there were arms and legs, and it really looked like a person.

This figure stood against a towering old tree, a few dozen meters away from us across the cliff, he seemed to be looking at us, and the sound of Xiao Xuan's headlights and engine just now obviously attracted his attention.

Under the moonlight, this person's image is a roadblock, just in our way. Panda asked, could the black shadow behind him just now be him?

I shook my head and said I wasn't sure, but if we wanted to leave Black Dragon Mountain, we would most likely need to face this dark shadow head-on.

The Night General was open-minded and advised us to stride forward. Walking on the rivers and lakes is indispensable for this kind of narrow road encounter, and the real master must maintain a brave heart at all times.

General Night deserves to be our spiritual leader, and after saying a word, we instantly feel empowered.

However, when I looked again, I noticed that the figure under the tree in the distance had disappeared......

Odd.

Since ancient times, we looked at the mountain through the cliff just now, and the figure was only a few dozen meters away, but walking around the mountain road, it was a full half an hour for us.

When we finally got to the location we saw earlier, we only saw a big tree about the waist thickness of two pandas.

I don't have much research on plants, so I don't know what kind of tree it is, but when I saw it, I thought it was unusual.

Because someone has carved something resembling a human face on the trunk, triangular eyes, a large, collapsed nose, and an even larger mouth.

It must be a very old carving, because the traces of the carving are already covered with moss...... It doesn't seem that the carving on the tree is necessarily much younger than this one, because the carving has gradually become one with the tree.

Panda asked, what is this?

I immediately thought of something that had been described in the treasurer's notes about this type of sculpture.

The treasurer's notes say: All things have spirits, and some local peoples like to combine the witchcraft of their own race with the local flora and fauna, so as to produce more powerful spiritual power...... This tree is clearly this approach.

And before I could speak, General Night suddenly opened his mouth and said four words: "Yelang Ancient Kingdom." โ€

Panda and I knew that General Night was well-read and memorized, so we hurriedly listened attentively.

General Night looked at the tree and said in a low voice, "This is a common carving in the ancient kingdom of Yelang, or a kind of totem worship...... It is said that in the ancient kingdom of Yoro, the rulers set up these carvings around their own territory and injected them with powerful spiritual power, and under the influence of such spiritual power, their rivers and mountains could be blessed by the gods and live in peace for a long time...... Invaders are cursed to invade their lands. โ€

Under the explanation of the night general, I realized that there was a good chance that the night general's inference was correct.

In addition to Shen Wansan's descendants in this village, there is indeed a group of Miao descendants of ancient ethnic minorities, and relatively speaking, Shen Wansan's descendants seem to be more like an appendage, they complement each other with the Miao descendants of this ancient ethnic minority, and guard some secrets together.

At this time, the panda suddenly whispered: "That figure was standing here just now, does it mean that that figure is the legendary god who guards the territory of the ancient kingdom of Yelang?" โ€
