The giant's version of the fire star beats its chest (louder than a drum) and roars and shakes its cries to shatter this peaceful night, this is the real roar of the giant!

His eyes also sparkled, and soon turned red, and it wasn't just a force that controlled him - was he still conscious?

He roared again, and with just a stomp of his foot, he stepped out of a big pit footprint, and cracks were everywhere!

Seeing this, the surrounding officers and soldiers began to disperse and fled!

Huoxing held the stupid star in the palm of his hand with his left hand, carefully protected it, and then smashed out his right fist, hitting the smiling face crazy, smashing out a big hole, and the whole earth seemed to be shaking!

However, the smile dodged the blow and shot the hidden weapon again, but the small poison was too little for the giant to be insignificant, and the next punch of the fire star fell from the sky, and the shadow of the fist had already enveloped him, and it was impossible to dodge - the fire star punched the smile madness into meat sauce and mixed it with the dirt!

The soldiers who had been forced to stay at Shak'ao began to bow and arrow to Varrow, but to such a giant, the arrows were like needles, and many of them could not penetrate his flesh - his skin was too thick and tough!!!

Immediately there were several palm prints on the ground, and the palm prints had a few pools of flesh and blood - it was easier for him to kill than to swatt a fly to death!

At this time, all the people began to disperse, whether it was the officers and soldiers or the name of the village, everyone was frightened by the crazy behemoth standing in front of them.

And the fire star's anger was not gone, and his eyes were fixed on Shakeo, who was running away with his big belly, because he was too fat, so he ran slower than the others, and besides, he hadn't exercised for a long time. Although he was far away from the square and almost into the night, the fire star caught up with him in a few steps, and then stomped on him again - and he got the same result as a smile!

When Huoxing returned to the square, there were few people in the square: Tao Xiaozhi, Amu, the iron bucket, the old man with pigtails lying on the ground, and Elixin, as well as a few villagers crying in front of the collapsed statue of God Abba (they were already convinced that God Abba was far away from Tao Xiaozhi's body).

Huoxing sat on the ground, gently lowered the silly star, and then looked at her quietly, seeing that she didn't understand, he pushed her with his fingers, but she still didn't wake up. The spark beat his chest and began to cry.

Tao Xiaozhi said to Huo Xing: "Don't worry, she just fainted...... Are you still a fire star?"

Huoxing stared at Tao Xiaozhi, and then roared at him, saliva sprinkled all over his body, and he hurriedly retreated, but Huoxing didn't attack him, just looked at Silly Xing stupidly, and then howled again.

The fire star's cry soon turned into a roar, and then he rolled on the ground: his eyes flickered and brightened, turning from red to black, the red hair on his body was contracting, the red tendons on his muscles were contracting and disappearing into the skin, and then the muscles began to contract, and his hands and feet were shortened...... Gradually, in the great pit on the ground lay a four-foot* fire star—a violent change that made him faint.

At this time, the old man's hands began to tremble, his face had become black, and it was bloated, and the poison had attacked his heart, and he only had his last breath left.

Tao Xiaozhi hurriedly walked over and helped him up.

The dapped lips of the old man with pigtails were trembling, and he could still speak: "They...... Are they alright?" he meant by Silly Stars and Blazing Stars.

Tao Xiaozhi said they were fine.

The old man with pigtails swallowed his saliva and said, "You can't ...... anymore I can't stay in the Demon Realm anymore...... Gotta go, go as far as possible......"

But where else can they go?

"You owe me my life, so, promise me ......" The old man with pigtails weakly grabbed Tao Xiaozhi's shirt and said, "Take good care of the stupid star ......"

"I will. ”

"If she has any longs and shorts, I won't let you go!"

"Understood. ”

The old man with pigtails gasped, and obviously the poisonous pain surged up his throat again, making his body tremble: "You must bring ...... Take them out of the Hive Realm and go to ...... Go to the Holy Spirit Source to find her uncle......" Before he could finish speaking, he trembled again, and his heart was poisoned, and he would never move......

Tao Xiaozhi just closed his eyes for him, and Ai Lixin groaned like a "miracle" again, he was actually not dead! Everyone moved closer to him again.

Erin spat out a mouthful of blood, licked her chapped lips, and said, "Please be quiet...... Can I make an elegy for myself?"

A dying man, no matter what he asks, others will not refuse, let alone the prince of love poetry in their hearts!

Without thinking, Elison casually sang:

With love from all over the world, love poems are brilliant.

Happy to pick up the morning and evening, the sunset is chilling.

The door leaks red apricots, and the apricot fragrance is a sweet dream.

In the dream, the red face comes, and when you come, you are drunk.

Where the soul wakes up, there are scattered shadows everywhere.

The shadow disappears with the dream, and the passing leaves a warm heart.

At the end of the song, Elison's life also ended, but he closed his eyes and went away with a smile.

When Silly Star woke up, she found herself in a large carriage (this car is four-wheeled, pulled by two horses and beast kings, and can accommodate eight people), with Tao Xiaozhi on the left, Amu and the iron bucket, they were talking and laughing, looking more wry, on the right was Huoxing sitting alone, changing into a big dress (probably not his), the sleeves and trousers were rolled up, the wooden rattan hoops on the head were gone, the face was pale, the body looked very weak, staring at the scenery outside the window, thoughtfully, less usually angry, and she was lying on the back seat of the car, and the back seat was specially modified to look like a small bed, just in line with her height. And the little melon on her chest, staring at her with strange big eyes and spitting bubbles, saw that she woke up, and screamed "wow, wow, wow".

By the way, yes, the little squirrel has returned to the chic forest alone.

Silly Xingxing's head was still very painful (his head was wrapped in a few bandages), and he was still very excited when he saw the little melon, grabbed it from the bed and jumped and screamed, hit the canopy, and couldn't stop the excitement.

Huoxing came to his senses, his solemn face softened, and he forced a happy face: "Dear cousin, you are finally awake!"

Even Silly Star could see that his usual expression was different, but she couldn't say how different it was for a while, she just thought it was weird.

Tao Xiaozhi stretched out his smiling face and said, "Silly star, you can really sleep, you haven't eaten or drunk for a night and a morning...... and handed over a glass of water and a pear.

Saying this, she was really hungry, so she eliminated the pear in three or two strokes, and said, "Did you bring the little melon back?"

Tao Xiaozhi shrugged his shoulders and nodded again.

"I knew you did what you said!" If it weren't for so many people here, she would have wanted to run him up and kiss him!

Silly Xingxing's face became gloomy, and he said, "Where are we going?

"We're going to ......"

"Where's my daddy?" she really panicked, even yelling.

The inside of the canopy suddenly became surprisingly silent, everyone lowered their heads, and they couldn't speak for a long time, and even the little melons who had been shouting all the way suddenly stopped talking. The sound of the horses' hooves sounded righteously, and each stroke seemed to step on their hearts, turning it into meat sauce little by little! The carriage also jolted, as if shaking out the undigested contents of their stomachs and the words hidden in their hearts......

"What the hell is wrong with my daddy......?" said Silly Star's tears, as if he were interrogating a prisoner.

Huoxing held back his grief, but couldn't help but whimper: "Uncle has gone to a far away place......

"Where did he go?" Silly Star understood what it meant, but she still hoped it wasn't meant that way, and what she needed was an affirmative answer.

Huoxing couldn't hold back any longer and cried bitterly. If Tao Xiaozhi is not mistaken, this is the first time he has seen Huoxing crying, and even after he woke up, Tao Xiaozhi told him the news of the death of the old man with pigtails, but he didn't cry, but his self-love broke out first. A person who rarely cries will definitely be hard to hear and mourn, and what has been accumulated over the years will eventually be released one day.

Silly Xingxing took Tao Xiaozhi's hand, and said with trembling lips: "What's wrong with my father?"

People have to go through some pain to grow in order to mature. Although it is a sin to destroy other people's "innocence", Tao Xiaozhi thinks that she can't live in that kind of world, and she also needs to know the other side of the world: cold and cruel!

He gritted his teeth and said, "He's dead......"

"Slap" Silly Star slapped him, then cried bitterly, as if he was crazy, and then pulled Huoxing, tearing his clothes: "Tell me, is this true......?

Before she could answer, she fainted...... Perhaps, she really didn't sleep enough, and she needed to slowly settle the grief in her heart......

As the carriage continued to jolt forward, the sky suddenly became overcast, several clouds gathered together, and as soon as the wind blew, it began to rain and the road ahead became muddy—they had already made a decision, and their next stop was to go to the source of the Holy Spirit that was fighting fiercely with the Demon Domain!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It took several days for Silly Xing's grief to subside, but the scars in his heart still need time to heal, and these are naturally not a problem.

Now they are going to the source of the Holy Spirit, and they have been traveling eastward for several days, but that country is still far away from them. Along the way, they tried to avoid the more lively towns, and walked through the more remote villages and even wilderness, all in order to escape the pursuit of the Demon Dynasty - they must have shocked the court and the rivers and lakes at the god sacrifice meeting, whether it was for the good deeds of the Qilin Fire or other purposes, this was destined to be an uneven road, and I don't know how many ambushes and blockades were waiting for them!

The coachman who drove for them was a former patient of the old man with pigtails and a good friend of his, but he was a man in his forties, and the difference between him and the old man with pigtails was more than 20 years old. He was much older than his peers: gray-black hair, gray-black skin, a few scars on his face (which looked like they had been scratched by sharp claws), many wrinkles were cut off, his hair was messy, his face was full of stubble, and he looked like a shepherd in a torn sheep's cotton jacket. The only thing that doesn't look old is his eyes, the weird eyes of the cold* people on the Gloom Mountain, murderous!

His name is Lan Hao, and he is said to be an orc. But what kind of beast? Looking at him, Tao Xiaozhi really couldn't guess.

The Holy Spirit Source and the Demon Domain do not border, separated by the vast Eastern Black Sea and several countries. The sea area that was in Ghost Island before was the Western Black Sea, and it took most of the circle from the west to the east. The Holy Spirit Source and the Demon Domain are facing each other in the middle of the sea, and the land is actually "bordering", but it is only the "tail"

There is only a large demon kingdom and some small countries in between. And this time in the war of the "Evil Saint", the Demon Domain invaded the source of the Holy Spirit from the land, which had to pass through the Demon Kingdom and some small countries. The Demon Kingdom and the Demon Domain have become allies, and some of the smaller countries in the surrounding areas have to join due to fear of the two major powers, but there are still one or two countries that are moving closer to the source of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the Demon Domain's invasion of the Holy Spirit Source this time was mainly based on the Demon Kingdom as a springboard.

And Tao Xiaozhi and they want to go to the Holy Spirit Source, of course, they can't go by land, they have to cross the vast East Black Sea to reach it. And what they are going to now is, of course, a place called Wind Demon Town on the coast of the Eastern Black Sea, which is almost not under the jurisdiction of the Demon Domain, and the port wharf there is also privately operated, not controlled by the Demon Dynasty, and there are many ships moored to various places in the Black Sea. But it is indeed a place of right and wrong, a gathering place of demons, criminals, wicked people, etc., where sin is rampant, covering the sky and the sun, which is one of the reasons why the Demon Domain can't control there. Another reason, of course, is that it is far away from the dark and evil siege city, and it is in the geographical advantage of "the mountain is high and the emperor is far away". In short, Stormdemon Town is a land of demons!

And they were still more than a hundred miles away from Wind Demon Town, which would take them days, if not more than ten days.

They were now going through a black desert, but it was already dark. This place is called the Black Desert. The general black soil is very fertile, which is conducive to the growth of plants, but the "black soil" here is poisonous, and only a few anti-poison black soil plants can grow, of course, this kind of plants are also poisonous. This can be understood why it has become a "desert", and it is likely to evolve into a "black desert" in the future.

The sun has not set, but the desert has darkened, the wind is tight, rolling up layers of sand, black dust is filled, and it is dark here earlier than in many places. They had to gather their accommodation, because there would be a lot of Steppenwolves at night, and if they were unlucky, they would even get into a sandstorm. But in this vast desert, they saw no one except a team of camels at noon, and although the house was much larger than the people, how could there be a house if there were no people?

But they did find the "house", a ruined temple almost swallowed up by the black sand - it was not inhabited, but inhabited by the gods (the place where the gods lived was really enough to greet each other). Of course, he was invited to move in. People living near the desert saw that the trend of desertification was intensifying, threatening their lives, so they built a temple in the desert, hoping to suppress it, but the gods were powerless in the face of nature.

The temple was in a mess, the house was full of dust, and only one statue of the god in the hall was spotless, even shiny—this is normal, and of course the people who come here to worship will dress up their gods beautifully. This statue is more than seven feet high, burly, with charcoal black skin, long tiger teeth, a roaring appearance of fierce and vicious, holding lightning in the left hand, and a dark cloud in the right hand, as if the mana is boundless. He is not the god of thunder, nor the god of rain, nor even a god, but a demon! In the seriousness of the demon people, the status of the demon in their hearts is naturally much higher than that of the god! He is called the rain thief demon, and legend has it that he stole the lightning of the thunder god and the dark clouds of the rain god, and brought the rain to the long-drought demon world. It is easy to understand why people invited "him" to the desert.

The coachman's blue eyes looked at the rain thief, and his big black nose kept sniffing, with a cold and vigilant look.

The iron bucket said: "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

Lan Hao grinned and said uneasily, "I smell a murderous aura-"

A person who walks the rivers and lakes a lot, of course, can have insight into the latent murderous aura, otherwise he doesn't know how many times he has died, this is the old rivers and lakes.

The bucket looked around uneasily, and then said, "Where, where?"

"I don't know, anyway, I just feel that something is wrong......" Lan Hao put on a drooping face again after he didn't find anything, just like after making a joke.

"Did you catch a cold?" said the bucket with a laugh.

Amu sniffed exaggeratedly and smiled at the iron bucket: "I only smell the loud 'rumbling' of someone's stomach......"

After they laughed, they stopped taking it to heart.

One of the biggest characteristics of the weather in the desert is that the temperature difference between day and night is particularly large, and during the day there is still rolling black sand, and the hot gas rises to the sky, like an oven, and as soon as the night falls, the temperature plummets, and the northwest wind is cold, and the cold air penetrates the bone! Moreover, the temple is broken and leaking, and there is no warm "mattress" such as straw, so they have to be angry with a pile of fire, and shiver around it.

What a blessing it would be if they could have a sip of wine in such weather! But they could only nibble on the dry and hard dry food—they had little dry food left, and could only last for a day or two, and although they had brought a lot of coils, they were useless in this deserted place, and even if there were liquor shops, they probably did not dare to enter it.

Tao Xiaozhi and Iron Bucket and Amu whispered nonsense, Huoxing was expressionless and looked a little sluggish, while Silly Xingxing was still indulging in sadness and continued to sink. Only the little melons are jumping around, spitting bubbles and being happy.

It wasn't until the wind had subsided that they barely fell asleep, and in their semi-slumber the sound of the wind was like a ghost crying wolf, leading them to a nightmare...... And the iron bucket turned over and over, and he couldn't sleep, although he had a natural thick protective layer of fat, but his stomach was hungry again...... In the past few days, they have tried to limit his appetite so as not to eat all the dry food of everyone, which is a kind of torture for him...... Besides, to be honest, if he falls asleep and snores loudly, then no one else wants to sleep.

He got up and relieved himself, but the carriage was blocked at the door (because the temple gate was broken, and the carriage had to be used to block the wind), and the wind and sand outside were too strong, and everyone else was asleep...... He walked behind the statue of the Rain Thief, pulled open his crotch, and washed the Rain Thief's feet with a relaxed face......

The bucket suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and his urine stopped instantly, because he found that the dark clouds and lightning props in the hands of the rain thief were gone! In fact, the "dark clouds" and "lightning" were still on the ground, could it be that some scoundrel had sneaked in and removed them? Or was it blown down by the wind? Or the illusion of the evening of the tree of knowledge, maybe the clouds and lightning were not in his hands in the first place...... The iron bucket didn't want to be so much, and continued to "shhhh......h

At this moment, the Rain Thief suddenly turned his head and glared at the bucket with a hideous face...... By the time the bucket realized it wasn't a hallucination, it was too late, and a black elbow knocked him unconscious
