Chapter 6: The Altar at the Bottom of the Well
In the ancient well, Xiao Guyan gradually calmed down after the initial panic, as long as he mastered the balance of cold and heat, he would be safe, the cold well water calmed the heat, and the heat dispersed the cold.
Xiao Guyan's skin is sometimes red like fire, sometimes cold and iron-blue, and a large number of pitch-black impurities are discharged along the pores with the alternation of cold and heat. The clear well water became turbid, Xiao Guyan was overjoyed when he saw this, and completely relieved his heart, sure enough, as he guessed, the fire poison grass was the fire spirit grass.
On the field, a group of children are still standing on the pile, their young little faces are very innocent, without any worries and sorrows, on the other side, those adults are frowning, and the old people sigh!
Gu Xiaotian, lost his combat effectiveness and became a waste, which was a painful blow to the tribe, as the leader of the hunting team, he rushed to the front when he went out hunting, and he was the first to encounter powerful beasts, and after the hunting team was less than him, the overall combat power dropped by more than one notch.
"Yesterday, the dozen or so fierce beasts hunted could not last for three days, and now that there is less howling sky, it is undoubtedly more dangerous to enter the mountains. An old man sitting cross-legged on a boulder said.
"The babies are growing up, but they can't go hungry, and after three days, I will take people into the mountain again. "Gu Heihu, Dao.
"But I can't be sure if the unicorn demon ape is gone, if it doesn't, there will be no return for as many people as it goes. An old man said.
"Alas, if only Brother Xiaotian hadn't been injured, at least he would have been more down-to-earth in my heart. A young man, sighed
The ancient well, the cold air rises, the mist is surging, under the morning glow, it is dazzling and colorful, like a fairyland, and the clouds and mist are misty.
Xiao Guyan was covered with bruises, alternating between cold and heat, in pain, his brows were furrowed, he gritted his teeth, his young little face was full of tenacity, and from time to time he ate a small piece of fire poisonous grass to adjust the balance of cold and heat.
As time passed, he got used to it a lot, and the pain he endured was no longer so intense, Xiao Gu Yan had time to look around, and he found that the bottom was not as narrow as he imagined, but quite spacious, and the deeper down this ancient well became, the wider it became.
The ancient well was completely built of dragon rock, which is extremely hard and abnormally hard, and it is said that after the death of the ancient dragon, the corpse was buried underground for hundreds of millions of years. The distinctive feature of the dragon pattern rock is that it has a dragon pattern, which is a dragon-shaped pattern formed by the imprint of the life mark of the ancient dragon.
A small piece of dragon pattern rock is worth a fortune, and it can even be sacrificed into a talisman, but this ancient well is all built of dragon pattern rock, which shows how brilliant the ancient clan once was.
Xiao Guyan felt that this ancient well was full of mystery, and he suddenly remembered the loss of the inheritance in the clan, maybe he could find the inheritance in the ancient well, even if he couldn't find the ancient inheritance, he could find a treasure fragment.
Xiao Guyan's thought breeded, and he couldn't suppress it in his heart, and his curiosity filled his heart, Xiao Guyan took a big bite of a piece of fire poisonous grass, took a breath suddenly, and dived into the water.
The well water is cold and piercing, clear and translucent, the small ancient rock is latent in the water, you can clearly see the things in the well, the more the ancient well goes down, the wider it is, suddenly there is a sharp bend, wait for the sharp bend, the ancient well suddenly opens up, and a stone room appears.
The stone chamber under the ancient well is dark and cold, the temperature is extremely low, the well water is cold and biting, Xiao Guyan ate a mouthful of fire poisonous weed, adjusted the balance of cold and heat, and Xiao Guyan looked at the wide stone chamber with the help of the ghostly light projected outside.
"Gollum!"
Xiao Gu Yan exclaimed, poured a few wells of water, choking his young face pale, it turned out that there was an altar in the center of the stone room, and there was a skeleton sitting on the altar, and it was that skeleton that frightened Xiao Gu Yan.
"Is this the former guardian beast of the ancient clan?" Xiao Yan thought to himself, tilting his head.
The white bone skeleton sitting on the altar, the dragon head and the human body, the eyes are hollow, the fangs are cold, the dragon horns are sharp, the limbs are thick, the palms are dragon claws, the bones are white, and there is a layer of polish on the surface, exuding a monstrous dragon might.
He fixed his eyes and saw that the stone chamber was empty and dark, and there was nothing but the central altar and the white bone skeleton, and he noticed that there were some traces around it, and it was obvious that there were other items here, but they had been moved by the people, leaving only the unshakable altar in the center.
Xiao Gu Yan relied on his courage, took a few steps forward, the well water suddenly became cold, the source of the ancient well is under the altar, there are nine small holes on the altar, constantly gushing out of the cold spring, the altar is embossed with all kinds of green dragons, lifelike, as if to fly out.
After coming to this stone room, the wounds on Xiao Guyan's body that had been frozen and cracked, blood flowed out again, and those blood seemed to be pulled and drifted towards the white bone skeleton on the altar, and the skeleton absorbed his blood like a sponge, this phenomenon he was completely unaware of. Xiao Gu Yan felt a strong feeling of suffocation! The young face was flushed, there was no air in the well, he had to return to the top to change the air, he just wanted to leave, at this moment.
"Buzz!"
The well water rippled for a while, and the white bone skeleton on the altar suddenly appeared with mysterious runes, and emitted a white light, illuminating the dark stone room at the bottom of the well.
Xiao Yan was so frightened that his hair rose suddenly, and he hurriedly took off his clothes to see that there was nothing abnormal on his chest, and he breathed a sigh of relief, just now he clearly saw a black light shooting, and his chest was cold, is it an illusion!
The white bone skeletons on the altar have disappeared, the bone powder is floating, the well water has become turbid, Xiao Yan feels that the bottom of the well is full of eerie horror, and there is a creepy feeling here! Xiao Yan swiped his hands and swam in horror.
"Poof!"
Xiao Yan spewed out a well of water, and his chest wheezed violently, for a while! Before he could breathe, Xiao Yan felt a sense of unease still enveloping him, what happened at the bottom of the well just now was too unbelievable, greatly beyond his cognition, and he thought, it can't be disturbing the soul of the ancestors, this is to warn himself!
The more Xiao Yan thought about it, the more scared he felt, he felt a chill on his back, and the more he felt that he couldn't stay here for a long time, supporting the well walls on both sides with his hands, and crawling up a little bit with his feet.
Out of the ancient well, Xiao Yan looked at the sun, the time was not early, it was almost time for breakfast, and he had to hurry back to cook for his father and take care of his father.
Xiao Yan just walked out of the cold place, feeling that his blood was boiling, and his skin became red, this was the attack of the fire poison grass remaining in the body, Xiao Yan hurriedly retreated again, sitting cross-legged at the mouth of the ancient well, waiting for the residual fire poison grass in the body to dissipate.
"Lift the heaven and the earth, grasp the yin and yang, breathe the essence, guard the gods independently, and the muscles are one, so they can live the heaven and the earth, and there is no end time, which is the way of life. "Xiao Yan, silently recite the breath and breath method, and run the exercises.
This law can absorb the essence of the void, although this ancient law is known by the clansmen, and they also know how to operate the law, but none of the clansmen can absorb the essence, and the clansmen unanimously believe that it is not the law left by the ancestors that will not work, but their own realm is not enough.
The cold air of the ancient well rises, the mist surges, Xiao Yanpan sits on it, his body is surrounded by the cold, it looks ethereal and solemn, and suddenly his chest emits hazy fluorescence, and the cold air converges towards Xiao Yan's chest, and then it radiates from the pores, and at the same time brings out a little impurities in the body, and the cold air continues to wash Xiao Yan's body, making it more and more pure.
Xiao Yan was quiet in his cultivation, he didn't know anything about this anomaly, the wound that was frozen and cracked healed quickly, and his skin actually had a kind of moisturization, pink and white, like baby skin.
His eyes trembled, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, he was awakened by freezing, the fire poison grass in his body had volatilized, and without the fire poison grass to resist the cold, of course Xiao Yan couldn't bear it, and was frozen awake.
"Click!"
Xiao Yan stood up, his limbs and bones exploded, this is the expression of full bones, he walked towards home, this step suddenly felt different, his body was ethereal, and his steps were light.
Xiao Yan was overjoyed, thinking that this was the result of eating fire poisonous herbs, he happily totoed the ground, took off and flipped a heel fight, and landed steadily, and his control over his body had been significantly improved.
On the way back, Xiao Yan thought, whether the effect of the fire poison grass will be told to the people of the Sù tribe or not! Now the effect of the fire poison grass of the people of the Sù tribe must not be believed, the reason is that Xiao Yan himself is relatively stupid in the eyes of others, if his strength can surpass that of other children, everyone will definitely believe it when the time comes.
The palace, majestic and tall, built by Qinggang rock, exudes an ancient atmosphere, a stream of herbs wafts out, and a figure in the palace is busy working, boiling herbs.
"Thank you, Grandpa, for taking care of my father. As soon as Xiao Yan entered the door, he said gratefully.
The old patriarch touched Xiao Yan's head and said kindly: "Xiao Yan is really sensible, but we are a family, why say thank you!
"Anyway, I want to thank you for your old man, my father always taught me to repay my kindness and have a grateful heart!" Xiao Yan said with his face tilted.
"Okay! Haha! Xiao Yan is really a good boy, you work hard, and when you grow up, you will contribute to the tribe, which is the greatest reward for me! The herbs are boiled, you can serve them to your father! I will leave first if I still have something to do." The old patriarch said.
"I'll do my best!" Xiao Yan said.
Sending off the old patriarch, Xiao Yan took the herbs and entered his father's room, his father was seriously injured, his dantian was damaged, and even if he was better, he lost his combat power and became a waste.
Seeing his father's injury, Xiao Yan's heart was sour, his father became like this in order to pick psychic fruits for him, how could his heart feel good!
After his father drank the herbs, he talked to his father, Xiao Yan came out to work and cook, he saw that there was not much food, he hunted a few fierce beasts yesterday, which was not enough to support a few days, and his injured father needed some spiritual food, which became a luxury, and at this moment Xiao Yan was extremely eager for strength.
