In a depression, a creeping monster less than three feet tall was lazily lying in the mire, waiting for its prey to come to the door.

But it seemed that it had been here for a while, shaking its body slightly, opening its large mouth full of fangs, as if it were lazy, and then waving its slender calves, dragging its long body to get out of here.

It is a nearby tyrant, with its superb explosive power and bite force, once the prey is bitten by itself, then there will only be one end, that is, death.

It had just come out of the mire when suddenly its not-so-sensitive ears seemed to hear something, and the fierce light in its eyes looked directly to its left.

In the middle of the air in the distance, I don't know when a small monster appeared, and it was flying towards this side happily, and it seemed that there was no motionless demon beast below.

The monster's eyes were staring at it, and its body was motionless, although this strange little guy was a little smaller, but it was still good to use as an appetizer.

As if the little guy didn't know the threat, he got closer and closer to the top of the monster's head.

When it came to the sky above him, the demon beast below suddenly bounced, and with a mouth, like a bolt of lightning, it swallowed the small thing in the air very quickly, and then it fell from the sky satisfied.

The mouth subconsciously stirred a few times, but found that the mouth was empty, and raised his head in amazement, but he didn't understand anything on the top of his head, and he obviously swallowed that little thing before.

"Could it be that I accidentally ate it when I came down?" the demon beast thought for a moment, maybe it was because it was too small, and it didn't feel it.

The demon beast didn't think about this problem, and was about to leave here, when it suddenly felt a deadly energy in its body exploding, and it didn't have time to think about what was going on, and then the next moment, it lost consciousness.

In the distance, Shuang'er watched the demon beast stand upright and have a body three feet tall, and fell heavily to the ground, and then the cute figure in the air reappeared, shouting happily to this side, as if urging them to come.

Shuang'er looked at this scene with a stunned voice, although it had killed demon beasts a few times before, but it was not as shocking as this time, it actually drilled into the other party's body, using spatial ability, and exploded directly in it, and he withdrew himself, and for these demon beasts who like to devour things, it is simply said that they are like natural enemies.

No matter how good your external defenses are, all living things inside your body are the same, very fragile, and without prevention, it's just a bit of a success.

When the two people came to the corpse, the cute pet lightly stretched out its claws skillfully, and slashed at a position in the other party's brain, and a huge opening was exposed from it, and then one of the claws suddenly became longer and went deep inside, stirring back and forth in it, and then jumped.

A green spar the size of an apple jumped out of it, and the frost on the side hurriedly grabbed it in the void and fixed it in mid-air, and then a stream of water rose out of thin air, washing away some stains on the green spar, and then carefully put it into his own space.

It seems that the movements are very skillful, and I should have done it before.

And the cute pet has fallen on Gu Zheng's shoulder again, raising his head and looking into the distance with great interest, looking at it like this, as if he hasn't killed enough.

"Little cute pet, wait until we turn around ahead, and then go to your master. Gu Zheng said to the cute pet next to him with a smile, causing it to nod wildly and chirp.

The little cute pet is the name given to it by Gu Zheng, so it doesn't matter what it used to be called.

With a wave of Shuang'er's hand, the corpse of the demon beast below disappeared again, and was put away by her, I have to say that Qi Gongzi is still very generous, and even gave Shuang'er a huge storage ring, which also contains a lot of good things.

Then they continued on their way, and in the far distance, many tall and mighty peaks loomed, and the direction they were heading was the Extreme Frontier Mountains.

It turned out that Gu Zheng was in Zhongyuan Village, and after seeing Elder Mei become the village chief as he wished, he originally wanted to leave directly, but Elder Mei asked them to stay for a day and rest before leaving, just to thank him.

The change of the village chief had almost no impact on the village, but it made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, at least they didn't have to risk hunting that incomparably terrifying demon beast.

That evening everyone tasted the incomparable taste again, and it would be a few more days, giving the hunting pair who should have gone out for two more days.

But only the next day, Gu Zheng took some food from Elder Mei and left there.

All of this was planned by their own families, and although they could easily kill Chang Xian when they left at the beginning, they couldn't dispel the swelling desires in their hearts.

These arose because of the ancient dispute, so the ancient dispute was determined to understand it, and would not cause the death of the villagers because of himself, although their dreams were shattered, but life still went on.

So after Gu Zheng ran around outside for so many days, he killed the green beast in the end, and went out of Mixed Yuan Village again, delaying a little time, but finally solved the matter.

Elder Mei also repeatedly assured himself that he would definitely treat those newcomers well.

The three of them walked all the way, as long as some demon beasts on their way, all of them were solved by cute pets, and they found a spar similar to purifying green mist, which was a bit close to the real power of darkness, which made Gu Zheng overjoyed.

I saw some spars being taken out of the giant elephant's head by them before, and it seems that I was right, almost all the creatures here have this kind of thing, so as long as Gu Zheng is within the range of perception, all the demon beasts will not let go.

Of course, it was Shuang'er who sensed the aftermath and then sent the cute pet to kill, and he himself followed leisurely.

However, the route they took was relatively remote, so they didn't meet a few demon beasts along the way, and this side was already close to the territory of the Extreme Peak Mountain Range, and it was even more deserted.

On the lonely earth, there is a lonely peak towering in it, although it looks steep, but the apprentice in this wide area still seems a little lonely.

At this time, Gu Zheng and the others came to a small hillside not far from this peak, looking at the surrounding places where birds don't, and they didn't know how the people here survived, it was too difficult.

This is the so-called border place, which is also the location of Shifeng Village.

According to Elder Mei, the last exchange was ten years ago, when the head of Shifeng Village led a group of people to communicate, and since then there has been no news of them, and I don't know what the situation is.

But according to the usual information, this is really the poorest place, and no one wants to come here if they don't need it, but there is a little advantage that they can grow some of the kind of food they used to have, or at least not starve.

So every time they still communicate with each other, and by the way, they intermarry, at least there are many people who are willing to marry there or get rich.

Originally, there was an exchange once every five years, but he didn't come last time, but it was not surprising that such a time often happened, so Elder Mei didn't feel any surprises.

"It's too barren here, how the hell are they doing? "Frost didn't believe that they lived in this peak, knowing that it would take three days to get to the nearest forest, almost as long as they reached the Extreme Edge Mountains.

"Who knows, but since they've been living here for I don't know how many years, there must be their way of survival. Gu Zheng looked in the distance, no one went in and out, and there was no one in his line of sight, and he replied casually after hearing Shuang'er's words.

"Let's go, it doesn't seem to be close, and you can't see any information from the outside. Gu Zheng sighed and said, leading the two of them to approach the other side openly.

Originally, he didn't plan to come here, but in his mind, the owner of the cute pet was already dead, but there were still some things left that made him mistakenly think that he was not dead.

But who knows, under Gu Zheng's repeated inquiries, his master is indeed alive, but the location is indeed in the Jifeng Mountain Range, although it does not know the specific location, but it can lead it to find its owner.

Since Gu Zheng had promised it, how could he break his promise, and it was a big deal to spend a little more time and then go through the holeless hole.

Since this is the case, Gu Zheng decided to come here to take a look, with the same purpose as before, to see if there are any newcomers who have also landed here.

Because Gu Zheng also learned from Han Xiu's side that the number of humans this time was not large, only one hundred and ten people, and it seemed that they were likely to be randomly assigned to each village.

Came to the bottom of the mountain, went around a big circle, only to find a rugged path along the edge, only to allow a person to twist away smoothly, the traces on it indicate that this is their passage, but it seems that no one has been walking for a long time, whether there are other paths Gu Zheng does not know, and does not want to look for it.

Following this path that is not a road, Gu Zheng and Shuang'er climbed up with difficulty, mainly outside this mountain peak is full of strange rocks, layer upon layer, for fear that the other party's hole is very secret, and it is difficult to find it when flying up, so they have to take this stupid method.

Just as the two of them were climbing halfway up the mountain, a low shout suddenly came from the side.

"What people!"

Gu Zheng looked at the sound of the voice, but he couldn't see anyone, but Shuang'er pointed to the back of a mountain wall and motioned for the other party to hide there.

"We are from Zhongyuan Village and we happened to be passing through here. Gu Zheng didn't speak, but Shuang'er spoke in advance.

A very thin child flashed out from behind, looking to be only twelve or thirteen years old, and the childish air on his face had not completely disappeared.

"You're from Zhongyuan Village?" Maybe the people here are united, at least they don't suspect them.

"Of course, the village chief sent us to see what's going on here, you didn't go a few years ago. Frost bent down and said with a smile.

At that time, the little boy saw that Shuang'er was so intimate, his face blushed, his body unconsciously took a few steps back, and whispered, "I don't know, but you come with me, everyone is inside, you have to be careful, now everyone is sick, don't be infected." ”

With that, the little boy turned around and continued to walk towards the side.

"What's your name, why is there no one to guard here?" Gu Zheng greeted, and let the cute pet back to his shoulder and follow him.

"Just call me Xiaofeng, this passage is no longer needed, we dug a tunnel a few years ago, and we can go up directly from the foot of the mountain, and now only those of us who are not young are sent here to watch. The little boy walked barefoot on this rugged mountain, and his feet were already covered with thick cocoons, and his body was more agile than they had been given.

After a few corners, a tunnel more than one person high appeared in front of them, surrounded by some red rocks, glowing with a faint red light, illuminating the narrow passage.

"Xiao Feng, you said that any of you here is sick, is it serious?" Gu Zheng followed Xiao Feng through the passage, if they hadn't followed him, they wouldn't have been able to find this passage at all, and there was even a thin layer of rock outside as cover.

"It's very serious, many elders have fallen ill and died, and my grandfather has also fallen ill and died. Xiao Feng's voice was a little low, and he could hear it clearly in the passage.

Gu Zheng and Shuang'er glanced at each other, it seemed that their situation was not very good, and they didn't know what was going on.

"So Xiaofeng, can you tell me what's going on?" said softly in the back, "Maybe we can help you." ”

"I don't know, when you come back, you can ask the village chief and grandpa, you will be there soon. Xiao Feng said without looking back, and continued to lead the way in front.

Shuang'er had no choice, it was better than the time of a stick of incense, they walked out of this passage, and an incomparably huge cave space appeared in front of Gu Zheng, their position was just a little higher, and there was a slope next to it leading to the bottom, and all the scenes were unobstructed.

Although I have known some of the situation here for a long time, I was still a little shocked when I saw it, the area here is not much smaller than the outside, and the pale red light of all the surrounding walls seems to be a kind of ore, exuding a faint temperature, making the temperature here just right, much higher than the outside.

There are no demon beasts here to invade, of course, no one here will have the power of darkness, it can be regarded as a gain and loss, and the middle is no exception, around a waterhole, there are stone houses arranged in a staggered manner, on the surrounding walls, count carefully, there are dozens and caves, and the light that shines like fireflies emanates from it.

Some people were just coming in and out, but Gu Zheng could easily see that everyone had a sad look on their faces.

Because nearly two hundred people all gathered in the westernmost part of the world, huddled together, each face had a faint black qi in it, and all of them lay on the ground weakly, and a simple stone wall was made in the middle, divided into two worlds.

Gu Zheng's appearance also attracted the attention of the below, in a relatively large stone house in the east, a few old men soon walked out, and Gu Zheng's side had also walked down and soon appeared in front of them.

"My name is Gu Zheng, I'm from Zhongyuan Village, I just happened to come here to do something, and I came to see you here by the way. Gu Zheng said to the old man in front of him with a simple cane.

"Ahem, I'm Village Chief Xu here, I didn't expect Village Chief Chang to send someone here, thank you for your hard work, let's go into the house and talk." The old man's voice showed a hint of exhaustion, but he still warmly invited them to sit down.

At this time, Gu Zheng and the others had already changed into animal skins, and they didn't look as conspicuous as before, so the village chief didn't suspect their identities at all.

As soon as everyone came to the hall, Gu Zheng said straight to the point to Village Chief Xu, "I saw this just now, it seems that something happened here to you, if it's convenient, can you tell us about it?"

Hearing this, the already forced smile on Village Chief Xu's face disappeared, and sorrow regained his face, and he sighed heavily before he said.

"I'll tell you the truth, just a few years ago, when we were about to go to your place, it turned out that there was a huge giant beast hidden in a quagmire on the way, and we didn't notice for a while that we killed a few people and injured a few people. ”

Speaking of this, the surroundings on Village Chief Xu's face became more dense, as if they were all going to be crowded together, and his whole eyes were even more sluggish, as if he had returned to that time, but after only losing his breath, he came back to his senses and continued.

"After we came back, we didn't know what was going on, just like some kind of plague, originally we were here, almost all of them were skin wounds, and the general condition would not be treated at all, so we could only watch them die, but then the nightmare came, and in the following time, there were still people who were infected one after another, and we had nothing to do with him. ”

"In the first few years, it was only a few frail old people, but some time ago, this phenomenon was spreading rapidly, and we were infected with half of the people, and now everyone is panicking, for fear that the next person will be themselves, and we are all ready to go to you for help, and you are here. ”

After hearing Village Chief Xu's words, Gu Zheng also frowned, he didn't expect the situation here to be so serious, Gu Zheng knew that there were no such superb doctors on Elder Mei's side, because the people here were very strange, and there were no minor illnesses like outside, almost all of them died at the end of their lives except for those who died in battle.

It is rare to die due to illness, which also leads to the fact that there is nothing to be done about this situation.

However, after feeling the gaze coming from the side, Gu Zheng said to Village Chief Xu, "I think the situation is a bit serious, if you go to us, I'm afraid it's a little too late to come back and forth." ”

"That's it, but we've exhausted all the methods we can use, and there's nothing we can do about it, and these things put everyone at risk, and if we don't solve our veins, they'll be completely dissipated. Village Chief Xu said annoyedly, and the few people next to him also frowned and sighed.

"Village Chief Xu, don't worry, or let us take a look at it for you, maybe we have a way to help you solve this problem. Gu Zheng pondered for a moment, and then said.

"You?" Elder Xu looked at Gu Zheng's young face, as well as the equally young Shuang'er, and then shook his head, "You better don't get close, that thing is very contagious once it gets close, for your safety, I think it's better to find your sacrifice." ”

"Who said I wasn't a sacrifice, otherwise there would be only two of us coming and going. Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and a faint green glow appeared in his hand.
