Under the scorching sun, the cicadas chirped endlessly, and the two men walked forward along the long river.

The river was not a normal color, it was crimson, and it seemed that it was not water that flowed, but scarlet blood.

"Little scholar. ”

No one responded.

"Little scholar. ”

Shen Xun frowned, but still didn't speak.

"Little scholar, why don't you answer me?"

The people behind him kept chattering, but Shen Xun didn't reply, and corrected him: "I have a name, call me Shen Xun." ”

"Shenxun, aren't you surnamed Zhu?"

Shen Xun stopped, looked back at him, and said clearly with his eyes, I know that he will also give me a nickname.

Mudon smiled, "Just kidding." After finishing speaking, he said with a straight face: "Anyway, do you think there is anything wrong with this valley, I always feel that there is something strange everywhere here." ”

Shen Xun looked into the distance with an indifferent expression, not showing any expression because of his words.

Mu Dong was still thinking about it, "I thought it was so fun, I didn't encounter anything after walking for so long, I was bored to death, senior brothers and sisters, they didn't know where to go, did they find any treasures......"

"Huh?"

Shen Xun stood on the bank of the river and leaned over to look into the river, and let out a question.

Thinking that he had discovered something, Mu Dong hurriedly walked over and asked, "What did you see? Demonic Beasts, Ghosts, or Heavenly Treasures?"

Mu Dong poked his head into the river, trying to find his fun, and the next moment he heard Shen Xun let out a sigh, "I'm so handsome." ”

Hearing this undisguised self-praise, Mu Dong thundered, stunned on the spot, and after a while, he raised the corners of his mouth, smiled at Shen Xun, and said: "I am more handsome than the master, you are more tender, little brat!"

"I said I have a name, don't give me weird nicknames. ”

Mudon walked in front of him and grimaced at him, "No, little brat." ”

Shen Xun walked slowly behind him, and after Mu Dong turned his head, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

He actually likes a pure-minded person like Mu Dong, there is no city, he is stupid and cute, and he will not drop the chain at a critical moment, even if this kind of person cannot become a god in the future, he will benefit the Quartet with his kind heart and accumulate goodness.

And people with this kind of character are beneficial to all living beings, and simplicity and kindness are the best nutrients, walking with him, as a book spirit, Shen Xun feels a lot more comfortable physically and mentally, and even for a moment he forgot the old wounds on his body.

A stone rolled to Mudon's feet.

He stooped down and picked it up, looked at it carefully, and threw it aside, when two grizzled men came out of the grass and scrambled to pick up the stone.

At first glance, Mu Dong was still a familiar face, it was the person who was talking about the Yuanbei Valley in the inn before.

"Mine! This is mine!

"No, I discovered this meteorite first, and it should be given to me!"

The two people are entangled, and neither will let the other.

Mu Dong extracted the elements from the conversation between the two, "Meteorite? is clearly a stone. ”

The words fell, and the two people who were still fighting just now instantly stopped their movements and retorted: "What do you know! This is a rare Grade 10 Forging Heaven Meteorite Iron that is rare in a hundred years, and the artifact refined with it is extremely powerful, and no one is an opponent!"

"That's it, the earth-bunned hillbilly, I can't even see the meteoric iron, it's really a shame for the monk!"

After saying that, the two fought again for "meteoric iron".

Mu Dong and Shen Xun glanced at each other, and their hearts were strange.

Seeing the two of them fighting back and forth for a stone, Mu Dong's eyes became more and more weird, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind, and finally came up with a reliable answer-

To be able to see a stone as a meteorite, these two must have suffered some kind of trauma to their brains, perhaps due to genetic intelligence deficiency.

I wanted to dissuade him, but Shen Xun stopped him.

"Don't go over, it's weird. ”

Hearing this, Mu Dong followed his line of sight, only to see that the eyes of the two began to turn black, and the whites of their eyes were almost all eroded by black turbidity, and then looked at the center of his eyebrows, gathering a cloud of red black gas, like a black cloud pressing on the top, controlling the minds of the two.

The two men didn't notice it at all, and they were still grabbing the stone.

The black gas spread to the palm of the hand, down the arm all the way up, to the neck, and then to the face, and from a distance, it looked like a black man who couldn't be blacker anymore.

Seeing the wanton erosion of the black qi, Mu Dong wanted to rescue him, but he had just taken two steps, but he was blocked back by an invisible force.

The stone fell into the creek next to it in the process of scrambling, and the two of them threw themselves into the river as if they were desperate for their lives, and touched the stone.

This river is also strange, it is still trickling, but as soon as the two of them enter the water, it becomes turbulent, the water is rushing, and the black river instantly forms a huge whirlpool and rolls the two of them into it.

"Oh no, the river is going to suck them in!"

The water of this river is really strange, and it is disgusting that such a small river can form such a large whirlpool, and it exudes a huge coercion and a fishy smell of blood.

Mu Dong couldn't sit idly by, and as soon as he stepped forward, Shen Xun stopped him again, "You and I don't know what is under the river, so it's better not to take risks." ”

"However, fellow cultivators can't just watch them being sucked in. ”

Shen Xun shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "If you want to save people, then go, I won't stop you, but I won't help you." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Mu Dong looked at his distant back, gritted his teeth, and walked to the shore, trying to pull the two out of his luck.

Before he could exert his strength, the invisible force from before reappeared, and swept him into the waves with irresistible coercion.

He exclaimed, "I just want to admire my handsome face, hey!"

However, the river water did not allow him to explain, so he sucked it in with the two people before.

Shen Xun, who walked not far away, held his forehead and sighed: "This idiot." ”

Turning back to the shore, before the whirlpool closed, Shen Xun jumped into the river.

Almost instantly after he entered, the whirlpool vanished, the wind and waves subsided, and everything returned to tranquility as if nothing had happened before.

At the same time, the same thing is happening in Qinghe Qirong's location.

Several people fought over a dead branch, and the fight broke the blood.

Qinghe Qirong acted as an audience on the side, discussing this person's body and that person's cultivation from time to time, and enjoyed it.

"Am I too powerful or are they too weak, how can the poisonous gas in this miasma have no effect on me?"

"Xu is controlled by someone, although their cultivation is not low, but compared to you and Li Jiang, they are always much worse, and they are ......" He raised his hand and swept it, and the cicada that had been chirping was caught in his hand, "Have you noticed that since you entered the valley, you will hear the cicadas wherever you go." ”

Qinghe thought about it, it seemed like this.

"Something is watching over us, not just us, I'm afraid everyone who enters the valley is under the control of that thing. ”

He didn't say "people", but used the word "things", and it seems that he is not a good stubble who hides in the shadows and observes secretly.

"I'm starting to trust Mu Dong's hunch a little. She looked at the few people who were beating Zhenghuan in the distance, and said in a low voice.
