The group followed Yingpei, walking in the deeper and denser rainforest, the route was not far and winding, but it was obviously a big arc, it should be to avoid something.

Walked for about an hour, stepped through a blade of grass shade, the time suddenly opened up in front of the eyes, showing in front of everyone's eyes, is a stepped ancient building, about 100 zhang high, the main body is made of boulders, the ancient wood is embedded on it, and there is a circle at the bottom to build a wooden house, if you leave off the huge pyramid-like building in the middle and do not look, it really becomes a city from the outside world.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but be amazed.

Xiao Cong first asked:

"Are you really the aborigines of the depths of the Ancient Zhou Plain?"

Ying Pei smiled:

"Why not?"

Xiao Cong said truthfully:

"I don't think the architectural style here is any different from the outside world, except for the stone tower in the middle. ”

Yingpei's laughter was a little more presumptuous,

"That's right, but the identity of our aborigines in the Guzhou Plain is also true, in fact, we didn't live in such a house before, but I don't know how many years ago a master from the outside world, felt that our house was too uncomfortable to live in, so he taught us the outside architectural skills, the ancestors experienced, hey, it was really much more comfortable than the house we lived in before, so they replaced the previous ones and became like this. ”

"And what about the middle one?" Xiao Cong raised his chin like a stone tower.

Ying Pei said with a serious face:

"The one in the middle is called 'prayer tower', not from the hands of our clan, I heard the elders say that since the ancestors came here, this tower has been standing here, the ancestors felt that this tower is auspicious, so they settled in this vicinity. ”

"Why is it called the Prayer Tower, and is there anything special about it?" Xiao Cong asked.

The corners of Ying Pei's mouth rose slightly, but he looked even more proud.

"The name of the prayer tower was given to it later, because the ancestors believed in it, so they often prayed to it, but later found that it was already dilapidated and slowly repaired itself, we thought it was because of the role of our prayers, so it was called the prayer tower, in addition, we also found that living around it, the speed of cultivation is increasing faster from generation to generation, and the birth of talented people is also more and more from generation to generation, we blame it for its blessing to us, so we believe in it more and more. ”

"According to you, the prayer tower seems to be alive. ”

"Let's just say that. ”

"Have any of you ever been in?"

Yingpei smiled and shook his head,

"There's really no such thing, I can't get in even if I want to, and besides, I don't have that mind. ”

Xiao Cong also smiled, nodded and said:

"Contentment and happiness are not excessive, and it can be regarded as a great wisdom in the world, and it is even more rare to be able to persist until now. ”

Yingpei smiled and stretched out his hand,

"Then let's go over. ”

So, just like that, the group followed Yingpei into this seemingly prosperous city.

Walking on the plank-paved path that winds upwards, Yingpei further explains:

"At the bottom is the area where civilians live, and the higher you go, the higher the identity of the occupants, because the prayer tower has four sides, so we are divided into four areas, and each side corresponds to an area, such as me, from the eastern district, which is the part we are walking in now. ”

"Look there, the building closest to the prayer tower, called the pastoral house, is the place where the virtuous pastor lives, the virtuous pastor is the highest status in the region, and is also the main worshipper of the prayer tower on major festivals, not selected by us, nor climbed the mountain by himself, but was born with the closest person to the prayer tower, from childhood to adulthood and the living environment of ordinary people is a little different, and the character is a little withdrawn, so please wait for you to meet the virtuous pastor, the attitude is as restrained as possible, easy to do. ”

Xiao Cong listened, nodded again and again, and suddenly thought of a question, so he asked bluntly:

"Aren't you the Great Sage of the Mad Crocodile or a believer in the Dragon Elephant Ancestor?"

Ying Pei was stunned, looked at Xiao Cong in surprise, and suddenly smiled:

"How can you have such a grotesque question, since we are already believers in the Prayer Tower, how can we believe in the Great Sage of the Crazy Crocodile or the Dragon Elephant Ancestor anymore? Besides, the two of them have been in seclusion for many years, and they don't come out much, even if they want to believe in them, it is difficult to find them. ”

Xiao Cong smiled apologetically, and secretly thought in his heart whether to shake some dry goods with the man in front of him who was dressed fashionably and felt harmless to humans and animals, and after thinking about it, he felt that it seemed okay to say a few more words, so he said casually:

"At first, we followed the leaders and elders of the Seven Divisions of the Ancient Zhou Dynasty to come in, and walked to a place called Wild Camel Dian, and there was a little conflict, and I heard one of them say that there is a tribe in the depths of the Ancient Zhou Plain that believes in the Great Sage of the Crazy Crocodile, and I thought it was you. ”

Unexpectedly, when Ying Pei heard this, his face changed greatly, and he stopped and said:

"Hmph, I've never heard of this Gu Zhou you said, but I've heard of the place of Wild Camel Dian, but I have heard of it a few times, but it is estimated that it is the group of people who can be related to Wild Camel Dian, what happened to them in the end?

Xiao Cong nodded, 117

"Dead. ”

"How did you die?"

"Volunteered to give them a totem, a green monster, and as they say it themselves, that thing is called a holy Gu. ”

"And in the end?"

"That Gu escaped, it should be missing something, and the fusion is not complete. ”

Ying Pei nodded indifferently,

"When I see my family pastor later, I have to trouble you to tell him these things truthfully, let's go. ”

As he spoke, he continued walking.

Xiao Cong hurriedly stepped up and asked:

"You haven't told me if there are any tribes in the Ancient Zhou Plain that believe in the Great Sage of the Crazy Crocodile!"

Ying Pei didn't turn his head and sneered:

"Yes, there is, but it has disappeared with the hermit of the Mad Crocodile Sage, not so much that they are a group of believers in the Mad Crocodile Sage, it is better to say that they are the leeks of the Mad Crocodile Sage, leeks, they were originally used to cut one stubble after another, and the Mad Crocodile Sage decided to retreat, and they will not be needed in the future, so they will naturally be cut to the end in the last stubble. ”

"Then you are so close to the center of the Guzhou Plain, and the two of them have never harassed you? ”

Ying Pei shook his head,

"As far as I know, such a thing has never happened, and as for the reason inside, I don't know, maybe it's because of the existence of the prayer tower. ”

Xiao Cong was silent for a moment, and then asked:

"Do you know about the Seven Divisions of the Ancient Zhou Dynasty? I heard them say that they were quite invincible in this area back then. ”

Yingpei sneered a few more times,

"Back then? It's been a long time ago, and there are faces to show off, and they don't panic, at that time, there were their prophets to support them, and they could indeed walk sideways in this area, but as far as I know, at that time, it was also because of the constraints of this prophet, they acted very low-key, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the unlucky prophet to be killed by several powerful Gu Immortals, these people couldn't survive in this area, retreated again and again, and finally hid under the protection of the White Lotus Village, so they could be regarded as having a place to stay. ”

Then he suddenly asked:

"By the way, they haven't been back for so many years, so why did they come back all of a sudden this time? ”

Without waiting for Gayin to speak, Xiao Cong said to himself:

"A few of our outsiders don't know each other with them, and during the conversation, we learned that we were going to the depths of the Guzhou Plain, so they volunteered to give us a ride, Lord Jiayin was not at ease with them, and felt that they had some conspiracy in their hearts, so they came with them, and sure enough, when we arrived at the Wild Camel Dian, they would sacrifice us to the Holy Gu, and we also lost our lives, otherwise we would really be planted in the Wild Camel Dian. ”

Ying Pei cast an inquiring look at Jiayin, and Jiayin said lightly:

"You don't have to ask me, what he said was what he said, that holy Gu was too powerful at that time, even I was bewitched, causing me to fall unconscious, and when I opened my eyes again, the dust had settled, and the holy Gu was nowhere to be seen, but he was still standing there steadily, so he was the only one who knew the truth. ”

The word "truth" seems to have been bitten a little harder.

Xiao Cong couldn't help but slander in his heart when he heard this,

"This old lady obviously wants to be a spectator from the situation, and it seems that she has something else to say, I really don't know what she has in mind!"

"How did they successfully merge with the Holy Gu?" asked Ying Pei nonchalantly as he walked.

Xiao Cong would not be stupid enough to tell the Dugu family about lending the Wishing Sound Treasure Box to the Seven Divisions of Gu Zhou, but just replied:

"The ghost knows what kind of secret method they used, and we can't see the Tao in it, so we really have nothing to say. ”

Sometimes the more confusing things are, the more convincing and convincing they are, Xiao Cong firmly believes that the fashionably dressed man in front of him doesn't know the secrets and details of this matter, and asking such a question is just a trick on his words.

Sure enough, for the first time, he couldn't get anything useful from Xiao Cong's mouth, so Ying Pei asked again:

"Then how did you not get from the Holy Gu's bewitchment and successfully repelled it?"

Xiao Cong grinned a few times,

"The exclusive secret method, it is not appropriate to say more, I hope your Excellency will forgive me. ”

Ying Pei rolled his eyes, which were not particularly obvious, and said meaningfully:

"It can be seen that you are a hidden person, otherwise you would not have taken them under your command, and you can also subdue the two necromancers, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, you say that this is your unique secret method, I also believe it, but when I see my family shepherd, you'd better be honest, don't mention what you shouldn't mention, if you drag me down, then you can't blame me for being unkind to you." ”

Xiao Cong naturally said yes again and again.
