Nearly twenty days ago, noon.

Yaoguandu, on the bank of the Wujiang River, was noisy for a while, so lively.

Today is the annual rowing competition of Yakukandu, and it is also a major day to worship the ancestors who came here.

Many athletes are shirtless, sitting on small boats, ready to go, and on the riverbank, many big girls and little daughters-in-law are also smeared with grease and powder, tied waist drums, and cheered for the athletes.

"Old patriarch, you are old, and you are still competing with our good guys, or we will ask you for a daughter-in-law, and you can go home to support your old age." The dog baby warmed up on the riverbank and laughed at the old patriarch.

"Go, go, dog, you can't spit out ivory, you can row well, don't lose to me, bad old man." The old official replied angrily.

Although his hair is gray, he is still in good spirits and greets everyone warmly.

The old official has long since lost his family, or everyone in Yaoguandu is his family, and he has long dedicated his life to the town.

He went through nine deaths to bring back the "Gecko Dragon Skill" from the outside, and over the years, he has painstakingly studied the cultivation technique of a common medicinal herb, and achieved great success, which he handed over to the clansmen in the town without reservation.

With his hard work and dedication, the disability rate of the clansmen when collecting medicine is low, and there are more good medicines that can be collected, and the income is even higher.

Watching the town grow step by step is the lifelong wish of the old official.

He did it.

But he's too old to do it anymore.

Today is the last time he will participate in the ancestor rowing competition, and after the race, he will announce to everyone that he will pass on the position of patriarch to his good apprentice, that is, the son of the former patriarch, Guan Da Niu.

Guan Da Niu has a lot of popularity, ability, and ambition in the town, and he wants to bring the town to a new level.

There are talented people in the country, and it's time for him, an old coffin, to abdicate.

This competition will be the final battle of his old official, and it is a game for him to draw a successful end to his patriarchal career, and he attaches great importance to it, so he came to the shore early to prepare.

The old official could never have imagined that he would die today, under the backstab of his clansmen.

The people he has dedicated most of his life to would be so ruthless.

The river breeze was slow, and as soon as the drums on the shore sounded, for a while, hundreds of boats competed for the current, and everyone desperately rowed towards the center of the river three hundred meters in front.

The old official even used his strength to eat, but in the end, he was old and weak, and he fell to the middle and lower reaches, but at this time, the change was steep.

Suddenly, without warning, a demonic wind blew on the river, and the wind was so violent and without warning that it caught people off guard, and it was difficult to even maintain the direction of the boat.

If you are so treacherous, there will be demons.

The old official's head changed color, and he hurriedly beckoned the clansmen to retreat quickly.

Under the shouts of the old official, everyone hurriedly turned around and prepared to return to the shore.

However, at this time, the mutation was born again.

Suddenly, someone on the shore shouted: "Everyone, run, there is a whirlpool below, a big whirlpool, it is still expanding, everyone be careful!" ”

When the old official heard this, he couldn't help but feel his heart and gall, and I don't know when, in the lower reaches of the river, a whirlpool suddenly appeared, and this whirlpool is still expanding day by day.

In the center of the whirlpool there was a monster that wanted to choose people to devour.

"Run! Everyone, run to the shore! Don't panic! Pay attention to the distribution of internal qi and physical strength! The old official shouted loudly to command everyone to escape, and for those young men who rowed slowly and were not strong, he was not afraid of his own little internal qi, and slapped his palm on the stern of others' boats to make their escape faster.

Under the command of the old official, the panicked situation of everyone slowly stabilized, but at this moment, the old official found that his boat suddenly leaked.

This discovery made his heart feel cold, but then he was relieved.

Don't panic, there are all his people nearby, just find someone to take a hitchhiker.

However, the follow-up development made the old official feel desperate.

"Da Zhuang, stop for a moment, my boat is leaking, give me a ride." A person rowed a boat past the old patriarch, and the old official's eyes lit up, and then he shouted for help.

However, it backfired, and the passing sampan was stunned at first when he heard the old official's voice, and then rowed away at a faster speed.

The old official dared to swear that Da Zhuang must have heard his cry for help, and at this time, a trace of disappointment appeared in the old official's heart, but this disappointment was quickly extinguished by him.

Da Zhuang has three sons in the family, don't blame him, don't blame him, there are other clansmen behind.

"Erzhu, my boat is leaking, take me for a ride." Another sampan quickly crossed the old official's side, and the old official's eyes lit up and he shouted.

Soon, the light in the old official's eyes disappeared.

There were people around him, and more than a dozen sampans passed, but everyone hesitated for a moment and then sped away.

The old officials didn't understand why they were doing this.

Among those people in the past, many of them were taught by him personally, and many of them received his favors, and some even saved their lives.

But everyone turned a deaf ear to his pleas for help.

This made the old official's heart chill slightly, he could no longer deceive himself, and his ship was about to sink at this time.

He also didn't have enough physical strength and internal qi to swim to shore, and he had to save himself.

The old officer plunged into the water and swam to the nearest sampan and pulled the edge of the boat.

"Iron Bull, my ship ....."

Before the old official's words were finished, Tie Niu picked up the oar with a hideous face and slapped it directly on the old official's head, knocking him down.

The oars were made of hard iron knife wood, and the powerful and heavy beat directly smashed the old official's head into the eyes of Venus, and the blood flowed.

At the moment of life and death, the darkness of human nature is revealed.

Everyone's choice is to only care about themselves and ask the old patriarch to die.

The old official's blood flowed down his forehead, and then was washed away by the icy river.

However, at this time, the old official has not given up, and he still has a chance.

There are still people in the back.

Once again, he swam to the edge of a sampan.

Syllable!

This time the old official had not yet spoken, and it was another heavy blow.

After going back and forth like this two or three times, the old official's head was already swollen, full of bags and cracks, and this time he relied on the instinct to survive and pulled the dog's sampan.

At this time, the old official was already a little confused, and the fingers of his left hand were faintly visible white bones, and he didn't know who was beaten by behind, and he couldn't remember clearly.

"Dog Baby..... The old official said in a weak voice.

"Old patriarch, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm only eighteen years old, I don't want to die, my internal cultivation is only a small success, my strength is not enough, if you carry you, both of us will have to die."

"By the way, Brother Da Niu is behind, he rows the fastest in front, you go to him, Brother Da Niu Gecko Dragon Skill has reached its peak, he can definitely take you ashore." The dog baby wiped her tears and let go of the old official's hand.

Once again, the old official fell into the icy river again.

At this time, his heart had become colder than the piercing river water in the midst of repeated disappointments and backstabs.

However, the old official heard it this time, his good apprentice Guan Da Niu was still in the end, and he still had a chance.

He laboriously opened a slit in his intact right eye, stretched open his swollen eyelids, glanced at the people who had left him, glanced at the sparkling ripples reflected on the river by the scorching sun like blood, and glanced at this colorful world.

With the last of his strength, he pulled to the edge of his good apprentice, Guan Da Niu.

Guan Daniu's gloomy voice came.

"Master, you look like a dog now."

"What about the majesty when you robbed my father of the patriarch's position?"

"If it weren't for Jiang Xin now, I would hang your ass on the beams of the house."

"Being old and not dying is a thief, master."

"By the way, master, do you know why your boat is leaking? I did it, master, I just wanted you to make a mess, but I didn't expect today's God-given opportunity haha. ”

The gloomy face of the official came to the front of the old official, he picked up the iron knife and wood of the ship, and wanted to directly cut the old official's hand on the edge of the boat into Doraemon, but he was bound to get a heavy blow and cut it empty.

The old official's heart was already like ashes, and he himself had already taken the initiative to let go of his palm and close his eyes.

He stopped struggling and allowed himself to be pushed into the whirlpool by the icy water.

The last glimmer of light in his eyes was extinguished.

The colorful world suddenly became black and white, and finally fell into the boundless darkness and dead coldness.

Forever fallen.

That day, Jiang Bo was evil and devoured the old patriarch.

In the depths of the whirlpool, a blood-colored token floated and merged with the old official.

A voice full of evil and temptation sounded in the heart of the old official.

"Do you crave power?"

"Do you want revenge on those who betrayed you?"

"Hand over your soul, don't resist, and merge with me completely~"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!

"Killing the world, the tragic horror of the underworld!"

"Blood turns into waves, corpses become mountains of bones!"

"Ten steps to kill one person, the heart stops!"

"See his life, want his death, hear his voice, and take his life!"

"In ancient times, benevolence and virtue were exclusive to harming people, and morality has never been true!"

…

"I do!" A strange and hideous smile appeared on the old official's face, and he opened his arms to embrace the blood-colored token, and his body was suddenly covered with black hair like steel needles.

…

…

Under the bright moon, the Wujiang River was cold, and one after another corpse monsters walked out of the river and rushed to the ancient town in the distance.

They are densely numerous, and at a cursory glance, there are no less than a thousand people, men, women, and children.

The strange thing is that after entering the ancient town, the corpse tide quickly divided into two parts, half of them rushed to the house that was set on fire by Yi Chen, as if they wanted to defend their homeland, and half surrounded Yi Chen, as if they wanted to kill him and then quickly.
