Chapter 71: The Light Curtain

Suddenly seeing this ghostly huge beast in the dark, Rao is Shen Shi has always been firm in his body and mind, and he couldn't help but "buzz" in his mind, his whole body was cold, looking at the huge head in the firelight, as if the next moment it would open its bloody mouth and swallow itself and the piglet.

It was just that there was silence in the darkness, the firelight was still swaying slightly, but the huge human-faced dragon horn beast head did not react, and stood motionless in the darkness like a statue.

Shen Shi felt that his palms were a little cold, it was oozing cold sweat, he gently wiped it on the placket of his clothes, but his eyes did not leave this strange beast at all. After looking at it for a long time, he gradually seemed to see some clues, this huge head and the giant claw he had seen before, it seemed that it had been for a long time, and there were traces of decay and decay everywhere, and it didn't even look lifeless, as if it had been dead for a long time.

He stared at it for a moment, finally making sure that while the beast in the darkness was unmatched, and that he was an ant compared to it, it seemed to be dead, at least for now. This discovery made Shen Shi breathe a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, and the huge tension in his heart finally relaxed a little, and then his heart suddenly moved, as if he had thought of something, and looked up again at the huge beast head:

“...... It turns out that there really is an ancient dragon like the Yin Dragon in this world?"

Shen Shi muttered a sentence in his mouth, the head of the giant beast in front of him was almost exactly the same as the Yin Dragon statue in the valley, of course, except for the eyes, there was a vision in the eyes of the Yin Dragon Dragon, but the eyes of the giant dragon in front of him were empty, and it looked as if the two dragon eyes had been gouged out.

But what kind of person could it be that he had such terrifying and powerful supernatural powers, not only able to subdue an ancient dragon like the Yin Dragon, but also to take away its eyes?

Shen Shi's gaze swept over Yin Long's eyes, only to feel that the holes of the two black holes were really a little crazy, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva and turned his head away.

At this time, he suddenly saw that not far away, Xiao Hei's behavior looked a little strange, after walking to this huge cave and seeing this ancient Yin Dragon, Xiao Hei gradually leaned over unconsciously, it didn't seem to be too afraid, but showed a bit of a strange eagerness, at this moment it was standing under the huge head, it seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then gently rubbed the skin of this Yin Dragon with its head.

There was silence in the darkness.

Shen Shi suddenly felt that his surroundings seemed to be quieter than when he came in just now, although there was no sound in the first place, but this feeling in his heart was very clear, as if he had suddenly calmed down, he could even hear his heartbeat at this moment.

A ray of light suddenly lit up.

Gentle, bright and not dazzling, a light.

The place where the light lit up was on the back of this huge head, Shen Shi and Xiao Hei saw the light almost at the same time, looked at each other for a moment, and then walked over there in unison.

The head of this giant beast was huge, and it would take a long way just to go around in a circle, walking and walking, and when Shen Shi finally walked around the head and walked to the back, his body suddenly stiffened, and as far as his eyes could see, he found a shocking thing.

Not long ago, when he saw the giant claw and the head of this huge beast for the first time, he had a subconscious thought in his heart, a claw and a head were so huge, if it was really the Ancient Yin Dragon, then how terrifying and unimaginable would the body of such a giant dragon be?

So when he walked over his head and came to the back of the beast, he was actually ready to be even more shocked, but he never expected that what he saw would be such a scene.

Under the glimmer of the fireball in his hand, and the light that suddenly lit up in front of him, he saw what was behind the giant beast, which in his imagination must be incomparably huge even if it was a dragon body as long as a mountain range and as tall as a majestic peak, he might be able to reluctantly accept it, but at this moment, what he saw was almost empty and empty.

Behind the huge skull, in the darkness, there was an almost completely empty place, there was no dragon body, no imaginary grandeur, only a small piece of body wrapped around the head of the giant beast, and the only front paw left in front of the head could be faintly seen, and other than that, there was nothing.

In the darkness, a sense of desolation and coldness seemed to turn into a gloomy wind, quietly passing from the front.

※※※

An ancient yin dragon with only a head and a front paw?

After a long time, Shen Shi let out a long breath, but the shock in his heart was still not gone, but although the remnant of the Yin Dragon in front of him was huge, it looked a little sad at the moment, and he didn't know what had happened to this giant dragon in the endless years in the past, so that its body and head could be separated?

Perhaps, at the moment when the head was separated, this Yin Dragon was already dead, right?

Shen Shi stood in place for a moment, and suddenly found that Xiao Hei did not stop like himself, but still kept walking forward, already some distance away from himself, and gradually approached the place where the light in front of him lit up.

Shen Shi was taken aback, and hurriedly quickened his pace to catch up, and was about to call Xiao Hei, when suddenly his brows furrowed, and there was a little more surprise in his eyes, and he looked at the bright place in amazement.

The light, which lit up on the back of the dragon's head, was lit up from a stone wall not too far from the head, gentle and bright, flickering non-stop, and gradually formed a strange light cluster like rippling water waves, trembling slightly on the stone wall and twisting constantly. And under the stone wall, where the light shines, you can see the skin and flesh and the stumps behind the giant dragon's head, and it is under this stump that a figure suddenly appears.

Yes, a figure appeared there, a person sitting quietly on the ground, with his back against the remnants of the Yin Dragon, his head slightly raised, staring at the ball of light on the stone wall.

Shen Shi subconsciously stopped, and then he soon found that Xiao Hei still didn't mean to stop, but was very strange, and kept walking slowly forward like this, walking towards the figure.

Under the afterglow of the light, that person's face Shen Shi gradually saw more clearly, it was an old man, he looked very old, and even Shen Shi couldn't judge his age, the wrinkled old face was full of gray and black markings, and the skin was extremely dry, and even the basic blood color could not be seen, as if as long as it took a while, this face would completely become a dead man's face.

But this man is a living person.

For he had a pair of eyes, though equally cloudy, old and lacklustre, but he did open them, and sat quietly on the ground with his back to the dragon's stump, and then stared at the light on the stone wall.

Xiao Hei walked over slowly, the closer he got to the old man, the slower it looked, and the hesitation became more and more obvious, and even faintly revealed a little fear, and he didn't know what he was afraid of, but the strange thing was that the old man seemed to have an inexplicable attraction, which made it almost difficult for Xiao Hei to control himself, and after a few hesitations, he was still cautiously approaching slowly.

Its nose kept sniffing, and its two little piggy ears were raised to the highest, and it walked very carefully with every step, and finally slowly came to the old man's side.

A few zhang away, Shen Shi half-opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything, and his heart was also extremely nervous.

Perhaps it was the little black pig that came to the side and alarmed the old man, his body moved slightly, and then he turned his head, and two eyes fell on Xiao Hei's body.

Those were two calm, empty, and somewhat indifferent gazes.

Xiao Hei suddenly let out a low wail, his erected ears instantly drooped, and his two forefeet suddenly bent to the ground, but they were prostrate in front of the old man. Shen Shi was taken aback, almost thought that something had happened, and just wanted to shoot regardless of it, but found that Xiao Hei didn't seem to have suffered any damage, not only that, but after it was prostrate on the ground, it paused for a moment, but slowly raised its head again and leaned over cautiously.

Then with its little pig head, it gently rubbed the thigh of the old man sitting on the ground, and at the same time let out a low hum from his mouth again.

The old man looked at the little black pig indifferently, watching it respectfully bow to his side, but showing a bit of strange intimacy, after a while, his cloudy eyes finally changed slightly, the color of indifference receded slightly, and a strange light quietly passed.

"Click, click......"

A low strange sound came from the front, startling Shen Shi, but then he found that the sound actually came from the old man, because the old man's right arm was slowly raised, and the strange clicking sound sounded from the joints of his arm, as if the iron armor of the door frame that had long been rusty and stiff, after countless years of dust, finally shook again.

The withered and old palm slowly fell from above, Xiao Hei seemed to be a little scared, and his body shrank slightly, but in the end he still prostrate in place and did not move, allowing the palm to fall on the top of his head.

Then, the indifference in the old man's eyes receded a little, and in the strange click, his palm actually gently stroked the little black pig's head a few times.

Then, the wrinkles on the extremely old face slowly wrinkled, but he raised his eyes to look at Shen Shi.

Shen Shi's gaze glanced at the old man, and suddenly he only felt that his heart seemed to have been hit violently by a heavy hammer, his heart suddenly tightened, and his throat was sweet in an instant, and a mouthful of blood spurted out directly, and at the same time, the residual spiritual power in his body seemed to be instantly emptied, the sea of qi was empty, and the fireball on his palm was also extinguished in a blink of an eye.

Shen Shi's legs and feet were weak, and he almost fell to his knees, and it was at this time that Xiao Hei, who was crawling beside the old man, suddenly snorted in a low voice.

The old man's gaze slowly drooped, and he glanced at Xiao Hei, who trembled a little, buried his head tightly on the ground, and didn't dare to move.

The old man was silent for a moment, and finally withdrew his gaze, but looked at the light on the stone wall again.

In the distance, Shen Shi got up with some difficulty, and couldn't help but feel terrified at this mysterious old man in his heart, but after a while, his eyes were suddenly attracted by the light on the stone wall.

I saw that on the stone wall, the irregular light cluster like water waves swayed and twisted endlessly, the surface became more and more smooth and flat, and there were faint figures and scenes on this smooth surface at will.

Shen Shi didn't dare to approach the mysterious old man, he could only stare at the light from a distance, and the figure reflected in the light and shadow was also quickly becoming clear, and it didn't take long for Shen Shi to see the characters inside, and he was suddenly startled.

I saw that in the light cluster, the scene reflected was exactly the same as the scene on the lonely peak he had seen in the cliff cave before, and the scene was larger and clearer, as if he was witnessing it on the lonely peak. And at this moment, beside the altar above the lonely peak, under the pillar of light that fell from the sky, there were four people, and their faces were clearly visible under the light, and they were all people that Shen Shi knew.

It was the Hou family couple and their son Hou Yuanliang, and there was one who stood a little back, slightly chubby, and Shen Shi was also a little familiar and impressed, but it was Hou Sheng.

At this moment, I saw some broken magic objects scattered on the ground around the altar, and the pillar of light in front of the altar was unexpectedly supported by an invisible force to hold up a threshold, revealing what was originally undulating and settling in the beam of light, from a distance, it seemed to be a red giant egg that was a man high, and a strange red light lingered around this giant egg, as if this giant egg was shining.

In the light curtain, you can see that the faces of Hou Yongchang, Sun Qin and his wife, including their son Hou Yuanliang, are full of ecstasy and excitement, and their eyes are staring at the giant egg in the pillar of light, as if in front of them is the most precious and rare peerless treasure in this world.

It was only after these three people that Shen Shi suddenly saw another person who was completely opposite to the three excited Hou family members. The little fat man back then, now Hou Sheng, there was not a trace of excitement on his face, he stood at the end, looking at the three people in front of him expressionlessly.

Then, in the light curtain, in Shen Shi's suddenly widened gaze, two ghostly fires slowly ignited on Hou Sheng's calm face, in those almost expressionless eyes.
