Dean Chu was also surprised, and then said: "This is normal, classmates who have lived together for more than ten years, after graduation, are separated from each other, and there are too many people who go back to their respective homes." There are even many people who have never met again after graduation. People have their own aspirations, don't force them, some people are a passerby in life after all, although they have also left deep traces, but in the end, they will be drowned in the long river of history by the hurried passage of time, and those who have been will eventually be an ordinary or good memory.

Dean Chu, who had finished speaking silently and was in the midst of self-appreciation, suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, do you want me to send someone to secretly protect you?" ”

After the two brothers answered no, Dean Chu nodded with satisfaction.

Luo Xing said: "Dean, I am going home on this trip, I don't know how long it will take to come back, can you tell me why there is such a big black scorpion in the desert that day?" It stands to reason that no matter how big there is a black scorpion, it can't be that big? ”

Liu Dafu was also very puzzled: "Yes? ”

After being silent for a long time, Dean Chu said, "Okay, you guys wait for me here first." With that, he picked up the teapot and walked downstairs.

After a while, the two of them heard Dean Chu shouting downstairs, and hurriedly walked downstairs, looking at the secret door behind the screen, Qi Qi was surprised, it turned out that there was a secret passage on the first floor?

Subsequently, under the leadership of Dean Chu, Luo Xing and the two walked into the underground space behind the secret door, and the secret door behind them slowly closed automatically.

After a while, Dean Chu opened a door in front of him, and as far as he could see, piles of gold were stacked in several rooms. The gold is shining, the light is dazzling, and it is impossible to count.

Looking at the hill-like pile of gold, Luo Xing and the others were directly stunned on the spot.

"Just sit on the ground directly, today, I'll talk to the two of you about this Mocheng Academy, anyway, I know it early and late, who called Luo Xing Mei Feng's apprentice, and you two are good brothers?" After speaking, he shook his head helplessly and continued: "The two of you are also the people who know the secrets of the academy the most since the establishment of the academy for so long, except for the dean of this academy and some recorded families. After speaking, he also sat down on the ground and stared at the two of them with very solemn eyes.

After hearing this, Liu Dafu was glad to have a brother like Luo Xing.

After hearing this, Luo Xing was glad to have a master like Mei Feng.

But what both of them knew was that this matter should be very important, otherwise, Dean Chu would never bring himself here, and said so solemnly, he couldn't help but nod solemnly.

As early as more than 700 years ago, there were many families on the mainland, recruiting troops and horses, and there were constant disputes for the unification of the empire.

Countless desert creatures, such as scorpions, desert wolves, red-crowned snakes, gerbils, sand vultures, and even horned deer, began to attack the city, and the event was later called the "Desert Monster Siege".

Because the number is too large, the strong men of Mocheng and the surrounding towns, officers and soldiers can not resist at all, the old city lord at that time issued an emergency convening order for the strong in time, within one day, countless strong people arrived one after another, and then entered an extremely tragic battle, and finally, under the tenacious resistance of those who participated in the combat, it can be regarded as resisting the Mocheng without breaking, driving them out of the Mocheng, and the people will not suffer a huge disaster.

When many masters and officers and soldiers saw those creatures retreating and thought that they would not come again, a monster that was even more huge than the black scorpion they saw last time in Luo Xing appeared in everyone's sight, and there were countless big black scorpions, giant wolves, giant snakes, and big rats behind them.

Those desert creatures that became bigger were later speculated by everyone to have mutated under the influence of that big monster.

This huge monster, from head to tail, about seven zhang, height of about two zhang eight, the whole looks a bit like a lion, the upper canine tooth crown is about one foot seven long, four claws have long sharp and hard nails, a thick black horn in the middle of the head, the back is full of straight and hard spikes, which continue to the tip of the tail, the four outer sides have from large to small, from bottom to top three upward curved hook thorns, the surface of the body seems to have a layer of pale yellow armor, Ordinary weapons can only make the sound of gold and iron clashing when encountered, and they can't hurt them at all.

This giant beast moves extremely fast, and can send out several rapid claw blades in a row, and the roar in its mouth is breathtaking, extremely ferocious. Since its arrival, it has led the beasts to carry out an even stronger impact on Mocheng.

Later, people learned that it turned out to be the "Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion".

When Luo Xing and the others heard this, they were all stunned, what the hell is this? Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion? So big? I guess the strength should be terrifying.

This monster is not like those beasts in the Nightman Forest, it has no specific rank, but it is very powerful.

It is understood that in the entire continent, only the beast clans in the Yemang Forest have inheritance, and can even transform into shapes.

Twenty powerhouses who had already cultivated in seclusion came to the battlefield, fifteen of them were in the Star Dao realm, and five were in the Star Monarch realm, and then everyone worked together to attack the Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion who was doing evil.

It's just that before that, nearly a thousand powerhouses in the Tiangang realm had died.

Later, the strong people below the star path attacked the big black scorpion and the giant wolf, the Xuanjin realm defended against the small ones, the ordinary officers and soldiers were responsible for the archery defense of the most ordinary, and the common people were only responsible for the rats that broke into their homes.

Those twenty powerhouses desperately beat the Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion and fled back to the desert, at the cost of fifteen Star Dao powerhouses.

Later, five Star Monarch powerhouses with varying injuries took advantage of the victory to pursue him to his lair. But in the end, the sand lion took refuge in the vast desert with heavy injuries and could never be found again.

When the two brothers heard this, they were all taken aback, if it was really like what Dean Chu said, then the strength of the Soul Paralyzing Sand Lion was too strong, the combined attack of the thousands of Tiangang powerhouses in the early stage, and the later twenty Star Dao Star Monarchs, failed to kill it, and gave it a run, the strength can be seen.

Later, the five unparalleled powerhouses immediately decided to hand over all the treasures in its lair to one of them, that is, the first dean of this Mocheng Academy, "Su Qingyun", and then symbolically only collect fifty taels of silver every year, supplemented by the supply of pills, to build a quiet cultivation place, the purpose is to in the future, if there is another "desert monster siege", there will be many more guards here.

The high and sturdy walls and heavy stone buildings in the city were built not only to resist the invasion of wind and sand, but also to defend the city against the possible re-arrival of monsters.

Luo Xing only understood at this time why only the walls and buildings of Mocheng were built like this.

Then, Mocheng College had a five-year trial.

Seventy or eighty years ago, the Dugu family united many families to unify the western continent and create the Dugu Empire, and even announced that Mocheng Academy was the only academy that was not under the control of the empire, and there would even be a considerable amount of silver subsidies every year, all because the Dugu ancestor Dugu Sheng, the current royal family of the Dugu Empire, was one of the five star monarch powerhouses at the beginning.

And the five Star Monarch powerhouses are Su Qingyun, Dugu Sheng, Jiang Shilang, Lan Chong, and Xue Hu.

The two brothers who were shocked by the strength of the sand lion were even more impressed by the spirit of the thousand Tiangang powerhouses and the later twenty powerhouses who sacrificed their lives for righteousness, and they were infected by the foresight of the five star monarch powerhouses, and they all admired it for a while.

The consumption of more than 700 years is so huge, but until now, there is still so much money, so how much wealth should there be at that time? It can be seen that the previous deans are self-denying and high-spirited, and they have not used these wealth on a large scale.

Luo Xing and the others couldn't help but feel a strong respect for Dean Chu and the previous deans from the bottom of their hearts.

Luo Xing had a question at this time, and said, "Then why does this soul-paralyzing sand lion's lair have so much gold?" That's too much, and no one will believe it. ”

Dean Chu said: "First of all, according to rumors, under the desert, I don't know where, there is a huge buried ancient city, where there is a greater amount of gold and treasures, of course, it also depends on whether you have this great opportunity, but until now, whether anyone has found it, whether it has been dug or not, then I don't know." Although there are also people who often go to the desert to hunt wolves and large black scorpions to obtain fur and strong shells for armor, I don't know if they are looking for gold or not. And the gold in the sand lion's lair is estimated to be dug up by the sand lion and those creatures in the desert for countless years, but I didn't expect it to be cheaper for humans in the end, and it is pitiful enough. ”

The two of them were even more shocked after hearing this, the rumored buried desert ancient city, the countless treasures in the ancient city, and the gold under the desert, these were the first times they had heard of it, but who would go there to dig gold for no reason? If you dig or not, you can put it aside, the climate and environment there, the day is hot, the night is cold, the temperature difference is huge, except for the people with high skills, who can stand it? What's more, there are those monsters, which are obviously not comparable to the wolves encountered during the desert trial, so don't lose your life when the time comes.

Luo Xing continued to ask, "Then why did they come to attack the city? Does this do them any good? ”

Dean Chu was also stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said: "In the battle of the day, people didn't understand the situation at first, and under the passivity, the city wall was collapsed, a lot of houses were destroyed, and hundreds of people died. After speaking, although Dean Chu, who had not experienced that battle, his expression at the moment was also a little sad.

For those heroes who participated in the battle to defend Mocheng, what kind of spirit and courage did they have to face such an attack, but still be able to stand up? It was the most noble spirit and strong will that was fearless and willing to sacrifice oneself to protect Mocheng, and at this moment, a deep respect surged in the hearts of Luo Xing and the others.

After a while, Dean Chu continued: "Actually, I also have a question that I haven't understood yet, the sand lion absorbs the essence and blood of people to enhance its own strength, but it already has so much gold and enough aura, why would it still attack humans?" After speaking, he looked at the two of them very suspiciously, and did not continue to explain.

At this time, Luo Xing and Liu Dafu are also you look at me, I look at you, I don't know why, they fell into silence directly, and they seemed to be thinking about this issue carefully.

After a moment, Dean Chu patted his head, as if a flash of inspiration, and said: "Oops, I should have thought that it is estimated that the aura or purity of gold can no longer meet the ascension needs of the sand lion, and those animals have not dug up purple gold, so they have come to invade human beings and suck human blood, because there is essence in the blood, that is, essence blood, and then use it for their own ascension again, well, it should be so." After saying that, he nodded affirmatively.

It's just that it is unknown when the paralyzing soul sand lion will recover and whether it will come again, but on this issue, the three of them didn't think much about it, and there will definitely be a way when the time comes, just like more than seven hundred years ago.

It's just that once the desert monster attacks the city again, it will be another desert city catastrophe.
