In the not bright stone chamber cave, Zhang Yan slowly opened his eyes, because of the call of the Earth Kun Rat Ancestor, he would wake up, which was also part of his commitment.

"Saint, my time is near, but I still have one more desire to plead with the saint. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yan nodded, but did not immediately object, and said: "As long as I do what I can, I will definitely help the Tukun Rat Clan." ”

The ancestor of the Tukun Rat Clan seemed to laugh happily, and then said, "I hope that Sage, you can select a clansman with great talent and qualifications for the Tukun Rat Clan, teach him all the things of my life, and let him protect the clansman after you leave!"

For this request, Zhang Yan hesitated for a moment at this moment, he had to seize every minute and every second, he had no extra time to waste, and it was used on the Tukun Rat Clan.

Feeling Zhang Yan's hesitation, the ancestor of the Tukun Rat Clan immediately said: "You only need to pick the one with the best talent and qualifications, and then hand over this space ring to him, as for the rest, you can only let the destiny of heaven arrange it!" As he spoke, his slightly held palm slowly spread out, and at the palm of his palm was an ordinary space ring.

"After handing over this spatial ring to him, tell him that the responsibility of protecting the Tukun Rat Clan has also been handed over to him, so that he must learn all the things in the ring in order to be able to protect the clan!"

Putting away the space ring, Zhang Yan nodded and said, "If you don't have anything else to do, I will leave here and not disturb your rest." ”

Standing up, Zhang Yan walked out of the cave, and then walked along the colorful passage towards the outside of the peak.

Walking out of the passage, a strong ray of sunlight shrouded his head, looking at the busy Tukun rat clan in front of him, Zhang Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Zhang Yan's appearance, those busy Tukun rats immediately stopped their work, quickly gathered in front of him, and looked at him with expectant and eager eyes, as if waiting for him to speak.

Looking at the dwarf-like Tukun rat in front of him, Zhang Yan let out a squeaky sound from his mouth, which was the language taught to him by the ancestor of the Tukun Rat Clan.

As the squeak in Zhang Yan's mouth spread, all the Tukun rats knelt in front of him prostrately, and after kowtowing three times to the hole behind him, they raised their heads and stood up at Zhang Yan's signal.

"Squeak ......" Zhang Yan let out a strange squeak from his mouth again, and when he saw that most of the Tukun rats nodded, he felt a little relieved.

"Three-Eyed Tiger Clan, I'll help you defeat it!" Zhang Yan said in a human voice.

Hearing this, some of the Tukun rats nodded, and some looked at Zhang Yan with pure eyes, but after those Tukun rats who nodded squeaked for a while, all the Tukun rats jumped up with joy and stared at Zhang Yan with pious eyes.

At this time, the patriarch of the Tukun rat slowly walked in front of Zhang Yan, saluted the latter reverently, and immediately spoke.

"After defeating the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan, I will leave here, but before I leave, I will choose a warrior from among you who will take on the safety of the Earth Kun Rat Clan. ”

"Squeak... Squeak..."

"Squeak......

Hearing the discussion of the Tukun Rat Clan, Zhang Yan immediately asked, "When will the guy from the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan come to the clan?"

"Squeak!"

"For the past ten days, you have all continued to busy your own business, and after the affairs of the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan have been dealt with, you will bury your ancestors...... Now, you can continue to do what you have to do. I will always guard this place!" Zhang Yan said, and then walked towards a mountain peak not far away.

Looking at Zhang Yan's back, there was a burst of chaotic and noisy squeaks in the Tukun Rat Clan, just like humans, they would discuss those curious things, and after a chaotic discussion, the Tukun Rat Clan began to continue to be busy under the signal of their patriarch.

Sitting on the top of the mountain, Zhang Yan's gaze looked into the distance, after a month of self-recovery, most of the injuries on his body had healed, and the Xuan Qi had also recovered to seventy-seven eighty-eight, but the origin divine pattern on the emperor's crystal was still dim, and the divine consciousness crystals also began to emit a faint golden light.

Everything in his body began to improve, but Xiao Lei and the others were still asleep.

Whenever a person is quiet, the picture of memories will continue to appear in his mind, and Zhang Yan, who has a chaotic god body, is no exception, and now he has the strength to recall the scene four months ago. The delicate cheek that often appeared in front of his eyes, that charming shadow like a fire elf!

However, he had to accept the reality, Yan Mu Ling died in the hands of the Six Yin Saints Like a Lion, turned into a slight flame and dissipated in the air, and completely left his side.

And at this time, the pictures that appeared in Zhang Yan's mind were all Yan Muling's figure, smile, voice, crying cheeks, and the expression when he finally blocked the palm for him, which disappeared with the butterfly's words!

There was no extra space in his brain to think about anything else, only Yan Mu Ling!

"Silly girl, why? Why do you want to block that palm for me? Silly girl, how do you let me explain to Uncle Yan!"

A lonely figure sat on the top of the mountain, but there was a commotion in the Tukun rat clan, a chaotic scene, a group of Tukun rats gathered together, and a closer look will find that they are carving Zhang Yan's back facing the sun on a piece of stone slab.

"Squeak!"

When they noticed that there was something wrong with the engraving, they would squeak and dance incessantly, and the Tukun rat in charge of the engraving continued to engrave after some arguments. In the eyes of the Tukun Rat Clan, Zhang Yan is their leader and guide, just like the human who saved their clan a long time ago, they want to engrave everything about the 'saint', worship and pray every day and night!

On the top of the mountain, Zhang Yan quietly looked up at the sun-filled sky, it was impossible for him to forget Yan Mu Ling, he couldn't, and he didn't want to! All he could do was to remember, and then engrave all the pictures about Yan Mu Ling in his heart, and go down alive with her share.

His eyes looked into the distance towards the sun, although he was sad, although he was lonely, although he felt powerless, but as the ancestor of the Tukun Rat Clan said, what he had to do now was not to stand in the past and be sad, what he wanted to do was to understand who else was around him, who was still waiting for him, and needed his existence and strength!

If he doesn't break this barrier of state of mind and doesn't cross a hurdle, Zhang Yan will stop forever, and he can even stay in the Tukun Rat Clan for the rest of his life, but reality doesn't allow him to do this.

Not only does he have to continue to be strong and protect the most important person in his life, but he also has to make an end to this era.

Slowly retracting his gaze, Zhang Yan touched his left and right fingers, and suddenly felt that something was missing, but found that the space ring that had been worn on his left index finger was gone, and then he found the patriarch of the Tukun Rat Clan after returning to the Tukun Rat Clan.

"What did you take from me?" Zhang Yan sat on a stone, looked at the Tukun Rat Patriarch and the surrounding Tukun Rat with a calm expression, and said, "Is my spatial ring on you?"

Hearing this, the Tukun Rat Patriarch immediately turned around and squeaked twice at the Tukun Rat behind him, with a hint of anger in his voice. Because Zhang Yan is a 'saint' in their hearts, a sacrosanct and inviolable existence, taking away the things of a 'saint' is disrespectful to the 'saint'.

This is not allowed in the Tukun Rat Clan!

A moment later, a medium-sized Tukun Rat stepped forward from the crowd, holding a spatial ring on its two paws, which was the one that the Longquan Sage had given to Zhang Yan as a greeting gift.

When the surrounding Tukun rats saw this scene, they all made a squeaky sound, and there was anger in their voices. Zhang Yan could understand that all the Tukun rats were blaming the guy who took his ring.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan smiled happily twice, these Tukun rats in front of him, who had round heads and round brains, but carried a layer of heavy crystal armor, were a little timid and stubborn, but they were really a little happy.

"Okay, don't blame him!" Zhang Yan said with a light smile.

Hearing this, all the Tukun rats looked at Zhang Yan in unison, and when they saw the smile on the latter's face, they immediately cheered, as if they had encountered something very happy. Even the guy who took his spatial ring was dancing with the group, as if he had thrown out what had happened a moment ago.

After a short cheer from the Tukun Rat Clan, all of them fell silent, only to see groups of Tukun Rat Clans gathered together, looking up at Zhang Yan from time to time, and from time to time there were bursts of fierce discussions, and then turning their heads back.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan was also a little curious in his heart, so he opened his mouth and asked the patriarch of the Tukun Rat, this time he used the unique communication language of the Tukun Rat Clan.

"Squeak ......"

"Squeak, squeak!"

After a brief exchange, Zhang Yan also understood why these guys in front of him were like this, Tukun Rat regarded him as a 'saint', and wanted to engrave his smile on the stone slab so that he could worship and pray in the future. As a result, he had to put a smile on his face again, and he kept one posture the same.

Looking at the busy Tukun rat, Zhang Yan sighed lightly in his heart, and said, "Silly girl, in order not to make me sad, you deliberately let me come to this living treasure clan?"

Deep in the smile on his face, there is a faint bitterness hidden that no one understands!

......

The peaceful time of staying in the Tukun Rat Clan passed day by day, and the arrival of the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan was getting closer and closer!

One morning, when the sky was still dark, all the Tukun Rat Clan gathered in front of the cave where Zhang Yan was resting, because today was the time for the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan to come to collect tribute. If the Tukun Rat Clan can't pay the tribute they should pay, the Three-Eyed Tiger Clan will eradicate the Tukun Rat Clan!
