Chapter Fifty-Six: The Fog Forest
"You can let me know something. ”
Li Mucheng's lips trembled a little. He lifted his sleeve and made a sweat-wiping motion, trying to hide the tremor of his lips. But all this still did not escape the eyes of the old village chief.
"Whatever you want to know, I can let you know something. ”
"Why should I trust you?"
"Because I know that your father was killed by lightning more than ten years ago. ”
Hearing this, he finally couldn't help it, and the sadness in Li Mucheng's heart was released like a dam breaking down. At the beginning, when his father died, he had seen with his own eyes that the soul of a red sky thunder was scattered......
Ten years ago, yes, it's only been ten years. Although Li Mucheng was already fifty years old, the three years he had spent in the Demon Luo Pagoda and the past twenty-seven years in the Fallen Dragon Mansion had accelerated the flow of time. In the real world, only a little more than a decade has passed.
"Well, what exactly do you want me to help you, I'll think about it. ”
Rubbing his temples, Li Mucheng's face obviously showed a trace of exhaustion.
Seeing Li Mucheng's appearance, the old village chief smiled faintly, "Do you see these people behind me?"
"Huh?"
"They're all dying. ”
Finally, the old village chief took the first step since Li Mucheng saw him. At the same time as the pace rose, at that moment, the old village chief's body was a little transparent.
"Are you ...... too?"
"Yes. Before Li Mucheng finished speaking, the old village chief interrupted him and walked to Li Mucheng's side with a smile, "Let's talk while walking." ”
As he spoke, the old village chief turned his head, looked at the villagers in the village, and waved his hand, "Go back, each of you is busy with your own business." I will definitely help you do what you have entrusted me with. ”
With that, the old village chief turned around to himself. There was a hint of loneliness in his back......
......
Not far away, there is a small green hill. Accompanied the old village chief all the way to this small green mountain, and the two didn't say a word.
It is not easy to see such a cliff on a hill that is not high. At this time, on the cliff of this small green mountain, Li Mucheng, Hei Yu and the old village chief were here, looking down condescendingly at the open space where the village was located.
"You must be wondering how I, a dying man, set up this chess game, right?"
"Yes. Li Mucheng blew the cold wind from the top of the mountain, nodded and replied, "Your lifespan, if as expected, has less than a month left, right? Are you so sure that I will come here? If I don't come, you will die in a month." This game is completely useless. ”
"No, it won't. ”
The smile on the old village chief's face was gone, replaced by a touch of sorrow. "As Ling Chen said, our village is very peculiar. On weekdays, he makes a living by eating spirit stones. Millions of years ago, our village was the most powerful race under the command of an adult. It is not an exaggeration to say that at that time, we could slaughter the entire rootless world with the power of one person. ”
"And what is it that has caused your village to fall into such a state?"
"Damned. The old village chief muttered. When he said these two words, between his eyebrows, a deep fear hung on his face.
"Heavenly Dao curse?"
"Yes. ”
The old village chief nodded, "The temple of the gods is broken, and the gods are gone." Before leaving, he had given us the spiritual veins of the rootless world. Although this spiritual vein is large, it has withered. Millions of years have passed, and as time passes, so does our race. It ended up like this. We have also tried to live a human life, but failed. At that moment, we knew that our race could not live without the spirit stone. ”
"You say, Divine Commander?"
"Hmm. At that time, our race was the Heavenly Weather Army under the command of the God of Waiting. ”
The north wind was howling, and Li Mucheng stood on top of the cliff, stunned in place, not saying a word.
......
"God, your judgment has come!"
With the shouting from the sky, the red heavenly thunder like a stone pillar smashed down and submerged into Li Mucheng's pupils.
"Cheng'er, hurry up, take this sword, don't forget your ......"
Before he finished speaking, under the pressure of the heavenly thunder, everything around him turned into powder.
......
"Big brother, what's wrong with you?" Hei Yu looked at Li Mucheng, who was deep in thought, a little overwhelmed.
"He's fine, just remembering something from the past. The old village chief's body seemed to be unable to withstand the cold wind on the top of the mountain, his body trembled, and he said with a smile.
"My father, before he died, was called the Divine Commander. Could it be that the god in your mouth is my father?"
"Yes. ”
After saying this word, the old village chief suddenly knelt down in front of Li Mucheng, "My young master, I ...... I've finally found you!"
“......”
Li Mucheng was even more at a loss. He and Hei Yu glanced at each other, Hei Yu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly helped the old village chief up.
"How can I believe that you are really under the command of the Divine Commander?"
"Waiting for the army, they don't lie. Millions of years have passed, and the only one who has survived until now is me. This mark is the best evidence. ”
As he spoke, the old village chief rolled up his sleeves. There is a red brand on the wrinkled, muscular arm. Li Mucheng can vaguely recognize that this brand is a waiting word.
"What do you want me to help you?"
"Not to help me, but to help you. The old village chief looked serious, "When the time comes, we will restore the power of the Si Shen Temple." The Bai family has done their best to help us, and the only obstacle is the Hall of Stars. Now the young master's strength is weak, and only after growing step by step can it be possible to clear the Star Palace. ”
"Therefore, the last general begs the young master to move my Tianhou clan into the Demon Pagoda to survive. ”
"How do you know I have a Demon Rotta?"
"In the beginning, the general was involved in everything. The young master must be a little unfamiliar with my current appearance, but if I regain the appearance I had when I helped the young master, you will definitely not be a stranger to the young master. ”
"Oh?"
Li Mucheng looked at the old village chief suspiciously. The old village chief smiled slightly, and reached out to wipe his cheek. In an instant, a flash of inspiration flashed, and the old village chief in front of him changed his appearance.
"You...... Are you the Fog Forest?"
In Li Mucheng's heart, he couldn't describe it with surprise. This feeling is shocking.
"The young master still remembers the last general, and the last general is honored. Wulin bowed slightly and said.
"The fog forest really helped me a lot. But I'm in a hurry, he should have the ability to take the initiative to enter the Demon Pagoda. Instead of you asking me here, I will be included in the Heavenly Weather Clan into the Demon Pagoda. ”
"yes, after all, more than ten years have passed. My physical body is failing step by step. Demon Pagoda is a treasure you will never think of. If there are sensible people who know that you have the Demon Pagoda on you, I am afraid that the people 'there' will come down and rob you. Similarly, there are endless spiritual veins in the Demon Luo Pagoda, although there are no spirit stones, but our Tianhou clan absorbs the spiritual energy inside, and it is definitely enough to survive. ”
"I promise you. Li Mucheng nodded.
It's not that he's gullible about others, it's because of the feeling in his heart that he really can't escape. When he first saw the fog forest, he felt a sense of familiarity in his heart. Unexpectedly, Wulin was a general under his father's command.
In the past, his father and friends helped him now, and it was not impossible.
"In that case, then the general will thank the young master first. But there will be one condition in the end. ”
"Tell me about it. Li Mucheng nodded.
"When I enter the Demon Tower, I will hide. It's normal that the young master can't find us. Everything, just wait for the time to come, we will show up again, and do what needs to be done. Before that, the young master went to cultivate with all his strength as before. ”
"Everything is ready and waiting for that day to come. That day is not far off. ”
Standing on the top of the towering cliff, the fog forest looked up at the sky, and there were infinite vicissitudes in the back of some illusory backs......
