Chapter 146: A New Witch
"The witch is dead?" Xie Yun was taken aback, "With such a master, who can kill him?"
Duanmu replied: "I know you will definitely be dissatisfied with us for letting the little ancestor participate in the war, but you haven't seen the power of the Gu God Witch Saint, if it weren't for the little ancestor, we would have been defeated a long time ago, even if the little ancestor participated in the war, we could only barely resist the attack of the Gu God Mountain." The old witch was killed by the Gu God Witch Saint, and the way I looked, I also fell for his trick. ”
Xie Yun sighed, it seemed that the battle in Southern Xinjiang half a year ago was indeed extremely tragic, he thought for a while and asked, "Is there still a way to heal your injuries?" If there is a way, it is difficult to say that I can help. ”
Duanmu Tusi lay on the bed and shook his head: "There is no cure, I have already seen it, and now I am waiting to die." ”
"Two of your guards at the door said you were seriously ill, I didn't believe it, I didn't expect you to be injured like this. ”
"Guards?" Duanmu Toast said with a sneer, "They are not my guards, they are the newly promoted witches, and the witches sent them to house arrest me." ”
"Why are you under house arrest?"
"Since I'm going to die, someone must inherit the position of Toast, and generally this kind of thing is decided by the previous Toast, but the new witch wants to arrange his henchman to be Toast, so he sent someone to put me under house arrest until I die, and I can't leave a will, he can get his wish. Duanmu laughed twice, and said cruelly: "He bullied me and insulted me like this, just because I really did it to him?" I hid a secret from him, a secret about the truth about the Gu God Mountain and the war between the major clans, the old witch died suddenly, he could only tell me this secret before he died, and the new witch didn't know this, if I brought this secret to the grave, he would definitely suffer from it." ”
Could it be that the secret of the truth of the war was related to the underground demons? But Xie Yun did not ask, he did not want to get involved in the affairs of southern Xinjiang, and it was difficult to say that he would never have the opportunity to return to southern Xinjiang in the future.
"If you have any unfulfilled wishes, you might as well tell me. Xie Yun said. "We can be regarded as friends after all, and it is hard to say that I can do it for you. ”
Duanmu Toast suddenly laughed, laughed very happily, and laughed for a long time before saying: "I have no friends since the day I became Toast, I didn't expect to be able to make one before I died, happy!"
"Stop talking so much nonsense, talk about your unfulfilled wishes. ”
"I don't know until I'm dying that everything is empty, and I can't name my son and wife for the most part, and I don't like them. They don't like me either, and I don't have any unfulfilled wishes. Duanmu said, but after a while, he seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said: "But you must take care of the little ancestor, the new witch demon has bad intentions, and wants to take advantage of the time left after Gu Shentong to make the Hua Yi clan the overlord of southern Xinjiang with the help of the little ancestor." ”
Xie Yun was puzzled: "As the toast of the Hua Yi clan, you should expect such a thing." Why are you telling me?"
"That being said," Duanmu said, "maybe it's the imminent death of a person, and there's always a premonition." I feel that the new witch will be bad for the little ancestor, and this premonition has been lingering in my heart, and if I don't solve it, I will definitely die. So you must take the little ancestor away, and you can't let him stay with the new witch. ”
As he was talking, a powerful momentum suddenly came from outside. At the same time, a voice sounded: "Kyushu people, you dare to break into the Tusi Mansion, really I have no one in the Yi tribe?"
Feeling this momentum, the two immediately knew that it was the new witch of the Hua Yi clan.
Although Duanmu Tusi was weak, he still shouted at the top of his voice: "What do you mean by Chuang, this is my friend who I invite, who I want to invite to Tusi Mansion as a guest, it's not your turn to call the shots!"
I only heard the voice and continued: "Oh, since it is a friend of Tusi, then it is also a friend of the Hua Yi tribe, a friend from Kyushu, please come out and talk about it." ”
Xie Yun turned around and was about to go out, Duanmu stared at Xie Yun and said, "I won't survive for a few days, and the matter of the little ancestor will get rid of you!"
"I'll take her away. Xie Yun promised, "Absolutely!"
Seeing Xie Yun so solemnly assured, Duanmu laughed, and then only heard him sing a mountain song, although the tune was cheerful, but the song revealed a thick sadness, it was a song of a young Hua Yi man pursuing a girl, although the song was weak and intermittent, but it was full of memories of the past.
Xie Yun walked out of the room, and a large group of subordinates and Duanmu's wives and concubines and children gathered outside the room, and when they saw Xie Yun coming out, they hurriedly couldn't help but take a step back in unison.
Duanmu Toast's singing voice was still lingering in his ears, Xie Yun glanced at everyone, and said: "Dignified Toast, even if you want to die, it is definitely not something you can bully! From now on, you will serve Duanmu Toast well for me, if you let him look like this again, I will definitely kill you!"
After speaking, Xie Yun released a murderous aura all over his body, and the strong murderous aura and coercion made the faces of the surrounding people tremble, and they hurriedly promised that they would not.
Xie Yun then walked towards the outside of the Tusi Mansion, where the witch was waiting.
Outside the Tusi Mansion, Xie Yun met the newly promoted witch.
Seeing a giant elephant standing outside the door like a mountain, this giant elephant Xie Yun had seen before, and he was very impressed, the giant elephant was covered with scales like a snake, reflecting the faint cold light, but many of those scales had been broken, obviously the creation left in the war. One of the two white tusks was broken, and the giant elephant was no longer in its former glory.
On the back of the giant elephant sat a middle-aged wizard, dressed in black like a previous witch, with a black turban wrapped around his head and tattoos on his face. The one in his hand was the brown rattan cane that Xie Yun had seen last time.
The middle-aged witch is full of momentum and looks very noble, but compared to the old witch, he is much less tolerant and generous.
"You are the Kyushu people who defeated my two witches? The witch said with a look of approval, but there was a hint of disdain in his eyes from time to time.
"Meet the Witch-sama. Xie Yun still decided to salute first and then soldier, "This time I came here for Xiao Ling'er's business." ”
"When the old witch was alive, I always served him, and I also heard him say that it was you who brought out the ancestors of my clan, and also wanted to help it go to reincarnation, your intentions are good, the old witch has always said that there is no chance to repay you well, but since you are back here today, then what reward do you want Just say, I came to take this regret for the old witch. ”
Xie Yun shook his head and said, "I don't want anything in return, I want to see Xiao Ling'er." ”
The witch thought for a moment and said, "Yes, this is a reasonable request, and I ask my friends from Kyushu to come with me." ”
With that, the giant elephant turned around and walked in the other direction. Xie Yun also followed behind the giant elephant.
The giant elephant looked extremely large, but it was as light as a cat when it walked, which surprised Xie Yun.
The location of the temple is not far from the Tusi Mansion, if the Tusi Mansion is luxurious, then the temple is completely majestic. The foundation of the boulder rises more than ten meters above the ground, and the stone steps made of knives and axes face straight up to the top of the foundation. There, there is a simple but not simple building, the whole temple seems to be made of countless rectangular boulders like building blocks, three boulders form the gate of the temple, the temple has been in a state of opening, it seems to accommodate the faith of tens of millions of people of the Hua Yi people at any time.
The giant elephant stopped at the foot of the stone steps, and the witch came down from the elephant's back and walked down the stone steps. Xie Yun followed, and when he could walk up the stone steps, the seriousness of the temple came to his face. In front of the huge temple, it seems that the two of them are just two insignificant ants.
Once inside the temple, the light inside was dim, but oil lamps were lit in every corner, illuminating the vast space around it. The pillars inside the temple are still long boulders, and the hard silhouette gives the impression of being indestructible.
And in the very center of the temple, there is a huge pool, and in the pool there is a raging fire, the flames are so high that it seems to be ready to lick to the top of the temple.
"In the era of the Hua Yi people, fire was worshipped. The witch demon said to Xie Yun, "It is rumored that in ancient times, the demon incarnated into countless poisonous insects to attack the Hua Yi people in southern Xinjiang. The remaining small number of poisonous insects fled to the cave to hide and survive like rats, which was the predecessor of the Gu God Mountain. ”
It was the first time Xie Yun had heard of the legends of the Hua Yi Clan and the Gu God Mountain, but such legends were old and did not have any value.
Around the huge fire pool, piles of dry firewood were piled up, and the witch went to the pyre, took down several dry firewoods and threw them into the fire pool, and said: "From ancient times to the present, the divine fire of the Hua Yi people has been burning and has never been extinguished, and it is believed that if the divine fire is extinguished, then the poisonous insects will come back." Friends of Kyushu, do you believe this statement?"
Xie Yun smiled: "I don't believe in this kind of taboo. ”
The witch laughed twice and said: "I don't believe it either, maybe there were also guardian wizards of the Hua Yi clan who didn't believe in this taboo either, but they all obeyed the times, it's really pedantic and ridiculous." Not only do I not believe, but I will not obey. ”
After speaking, I saw that the witch stretched out his hand, and the raging fire in the pool was extinguished, and only wisps of green smoke continued to rise.
Is this a kind of rebellion? Xie Yun thought to himself, this witch is really independent, and he can easily break the taboo that the Hua Yi clan has followed for generations.
As the flames were extinguished, the witch continued: "Gu Shentong has fled overseas, they have suffered heavy losses, even the base has been lost, it is not easy to make a comeback, even if they come back in the future, I am not afraid, I already have more powerful weapons, and my ancestors have been protecting our entire Huayi clan!"
