The road taken by several old men and their entourage was extremely smooth, and it was obviously the result of years of trampling. Presumably they have been here for a long time, and they are very enthusiastic along the way, asking questions and touching this and that, and the two most common words are 'I don't know' and 'can't touch'.

Originally, he wanted to get some information about this place from the mouths of these old men, but in fact, he couldn't interject at all. I can't be disrespectful to the elders, so I can only endure it.

At the same time, he looked at several old men with thin and dirty bodies, carrying wooden forks the thickness of their arms on their shoulders, which was very incongruous. Looking at this scene, the doubts in his heart became more and more confused.

"There shouldn't be any young people here, otherwise how could these old and weak people come out to hunt?" Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"These people definitely wouldn't have entered the Demon Night Forest at such an age, and now that they have become like this, it means that they haven't been able to leave here until this age! Can't get in, can't get out, then, how do I leave?"

"We're going to where we live. Alas, it is really the world that is declining, and how can young people nowadays be so silent and dull, so disrespectful to the elderly. The tall elder shook his head and expressed his displeasure at the tepidness of the lonely stand.

"It's not that I don't talk much, it's that you talk too much!"

Xiao Li thought helplessly, but at this time, he was still in the mood to argue with them, so he just sighed and followed. In any case, it is necessary to figure out the situation first.

It turned out that several old men lived in a vacant lot on the top of the mountain, within a radius of miles, and the environment seemed to be very secret.

The clearing is surrounded by a dense staggered patch of decaying trees, making it difficult to see the inside from the outside. A dozen simple and dilapidated linen tents, scattered on some damp ground, with nothing but a pot and a stone table.

Because there is no sunlight all year round, the mildew in the open space is serious, and there is no need to ask, and the old people live very hard.

Walking into it, he really saw what an old man is......

Hearing someone approaching, among several tents, old men with thinning hair poked out, and a few who could still walk, so they supported their crutches, dragged their bodies out, and gathered around the perimeter of the lone line. Those who couldn't move just 'hummed' a few times and lay down again.

The old men who walked out were blue, their skin was covered with bones, their long hair was scattered, and they grinned, and their teeth had already been lost. He only stared at his cloudy eyes, and couldn't even say a word neatly, and the old one seemed to be out of breath at any time.

If you hadn't known in advance that they were human, you would have suspected that you had seen a ghost.

Xiao Li nodded slightly at these older old men, but he couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, "Am I going to be trapped here to such an age?"

In addition, there is a very strange phenomenon in this residence, that is, it is all men, and there is not a single woman.

"What kind of place is this, and why is everything abnormal!"

The square-faced serious old man waved his hand and shouted, "It's scattered, it's scattered, don't look at it." After a short time, he led the group to a tent in the middle.

The tall old man patted his lonely shoulder, leaned over to him, and whispered, "We'll talk later." As he spoke, he pointed to a long tent on his right.

He squeezed out a smile and didn't answer.

The long-bearded old man 'chirped' twice at the babbling, but did not return any response to the babbling.

"Alas~" The short old man shook his head and sighed, and left with his hands behind his back.

After a while, the four old men, only the square-faced old man with a serious expression remained, stood respectfully in front of the tent, and said, "Big brother, I went hunting today and met two young people, who are now outside the door." ”

It seems that this tent belongs to the person who is in charge of the land. A 'big brother' shouted out of the mouth of a serious old man, which made people feel weird, why did they still act like a market gang at such an age.

"Oh, come, come in. A hoarse, weak voice could be heard from inside the tent.

"Big brother wants you to go in. The square-faced old man said, lifting the curtain.

He smiled and stepped into the tent.

A musty and disgusting smell came to my nose.

I saw that on the stone chair in the middle of the tent, there was an old man who seemed to be too old to be old, without a single hair, his whole body was dry and wrinkled, his limbs were very thin, and it seemed that only black and gray skin was left wrapped around the bones, and he looked more like a dried corpse than a living person.

It is unimaginable that such a person is still alive.

Xiao Li's face did not change, he shook his nose, bowed down and said, "Standing alone, I have seen the elders."

The half-lying old man raised his hand tremblingly, pointed to Evian, who was hiding behind him and did not dare to show his head, his wrinkled mouth opened and closed up and down, making a hoarse sound, "This, who is it?"

"He is my brother, frightened and delirious, and I hope that the elders will forgive him. ”

"Alas~" The old man sighed, and said, "Are you from the south?" He was talking to Li, but his eyes were on babbling, and he stayed a lot.

Babbling turned his head away, ignoring it.

Xiao Li nodded, nodded his head while frowning, and said secretly in his heart, "When that person introduced us just now, he didn't say which direction we came from, and he could actually guess?"

"It's dangerous all the way from the south to here, right?"

"Well, but I'm glad I survived. When you get out of this hexagram domain, you can get out of the Demon Night Forest!"

The old man opened his mouth, but did not speak immediately, but paused for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "North, the road is not easy to walk......

"Dare to ask the elderly, how is it difficult to walk?"

The old man shook his head and said no more for a moment.

He frowned tightly, and thought to himself, "He said at the beginning that I came from the south, it must be because he knew that no one from the north could come, could it be that they all broke into this place from the south and were trapped until now?"

Xiao Li couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, "Evian foresaw that the sea of flowers was a dead end, and didn't say that there was danger here, maybe there was no danger here, but it would be trapped here all the time......"

"There is another question, these people are not able to exert cultivation at all, presumably the realm is not very high, so why can they live to be so old?"

Seeing that the old man's brows were getting tighter and tighter, he turned to speak and said, "You guys, you're hungry, eat something first." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the black mass of something on the stone platform in front of him.

Xiao Li squeezed out a smile and took a step forward, squinting at it, but almost retching.

I saw that a black and swarthy thing turned out to be hundreds of dried dark black centipedes, which made people's scalps tingle at a glance.

Seeing that he hesitated, the old man reached out his arm like a dead branch, grabbed a handful of centipedes and stuffed them into his mouth, "Alas, this place is not like the outside, and it is mostly fed on this thing on weekdays, so don't dislike it." ”

"Hmph, hum~"

Qiuqiu, who was originally sleepy, immediately rushed out of his arms as soon as he heard that there was something to eat, jumped onto the stone platform, put his mouth directly on the stone surface, opened it widely, and pulled centipedes into his mouth with his small paws.

It's just that I don't dislike the terrible appearance of the centipede, and the appearance of eating is so indecent, Evian standing behind him wants to be disgusted when he sees it.

The old man didn't expect that there was still a lifetime spirit in his arms, and when he saw him jump out, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Babbling did not show weakness, jumped to the stone platform, pouted, and swallowed the dried centipedes one by one.

"No wonder the people here are blue-faced, presumably because they often eat these poisons. Xiao Li sighed secretly, "What's the point of living like this, no matter how long you live." ”

"Elder Mo Wei" stood alone and looked at the two little guys on the stone platform, with an apologetic face.

"Out of the way, these two little ones are interesting. The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and although the skin on his cheeks was so dry that he couldn't shrink, he could still see the kindness in his eyes.

"This old man must be a peaceful and friendly person, there are more than ten people here, and in this environment, one by one has not lost his mind, which may have a lot to do with this person's heart. The other old men also have a lot of respect for this person, and they should be very prestigious. ”

"No wonder the four of them had to bring me to see this man first......"

Xiao Li smiled faintly, and then asked, "I wonder how long my predecessor has been here?"

Since the old man is reluctant to talk about the road ahead, he may be able to knock on the side.

"I can't remember," the old man retracted his gaze at Babbling and Qiuqiu, shook his head, and continued, "If you live for a long time, you will have no concept of time." ”

"How long do you have to live, so that you don't have the concept of time," he said, and then asked, "Are all the elders here from the south, and why don't they go any further?"

"If you're coming from the south, who's going to take this road?"

"Is the elder from the north?"

"If he said this, it means that the old men here all came from the north, and since the north is passable, why does he assert that I am from the south? It's not easy to go, how did you get here......"
