Tiexian heirs in the city

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

However, it seems that it has been here for a while. It shook its body slightly, opened its mouth full of fangs, deep like a lazy waist, and then waved its short legs, dragging its long body Ready to get out of here.

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

It just came out of the quagmire, suddenly its insensitive ears seemed to hear something, and the fierce light in its eyes looked directly to its left side.

In the mid-air in the distance, a small monster appeared at some point, and was flying towards this side cheerfully. It seemed that he didn't see the motionless monster below.

The monster's eyes were fixed on it, and its figure was motionless. Although this strange little guy was a little small, it was still good as an appetizer.

The little guy didn't seem to know the threat, and got closer and closer to the head of the monster.

When it came to the sky above him, the monster below jumped suddenly, opened its mouth, like a flash of lightning, swallowed the small thing in the air incomparably swiftly, and then fell from the sky with satisfaction.

Subconsciously stirred a few times in the mouth, but found that the mouth was empty, raised his head in astonishment, but there was nothing on the top of his head, and he had swallowed that little thing before.

"Could it be that I accidentally ate it when I came down?" The monster thought for a while in doubt, maybe because it was too small, it didn't feel it.

The monster was not thinking about this question, and was about to leave here when it suddenly felt a deadly energy erupting in its body. Before it had time to think about what was going on, it lost consciousness the next moment.

In the distance, Shuang'er watched the monster stand upright with a body three feet high, and fell heavily on the ground, and then the figure of the cute pet in the air appeared again, happily yelling towards this side, as if urging them come over.

Shuang'er stared at this scene with a gaping mouth. Although it had killed monsters several times before, it was not shocked this time. It actually got into the opponent's body and used the space ability to explode directly inside, while she pulled out. , For these monsters that like to devour things, they are like natural enemies.

Even if your external defense is excellent, but all living things inside your body are the same, very fragile, without precautions, it is simply one-shot accuracy.

When the two came to the corpse, the cute pet Qingche stretched out its sharp claws proficiently, and slashed at a position in the opponent's brain, a huge hole was exposed, and then one of the sharp claws suddenly changed. Chang went deep into it, stirred it back and forth, and then jumped.

A green spar the size of an apple jumped out of it, and Shuang'er at the side quickly grabbed it and fixed it in mid-air, then a stream of water rose out of thin air to wash away some of the stains on the green spar , and then carefully put it into his own space.

It seems that the movements are very skilled, and they should have done a lot.

And the cute pet has once again landed on Gu Zheng's shoulders, raised his head and looked at the distance with great interest, looking at it like this, it seems that it hasn't killed enough.

"Little cute pet, wait until we turn around before going to find your master." Gu Zheng smiled and said to the cute pet next to him, which made it nod wildly and chirp endlessly.

Xiao Meng pet is the name given to it by Gu Zheng, so it doesn't care what it was called before.

With a wave of Shuang'er's hand, the corpse of the monster under it disappeared again, and she put it away. I have to say that Mr. Qi is quite generous, even giving Shuang'er a huge storage ring, which also contains a lot of good things .

Then they continued on their way. In the far distance, many tall and mighty peaks were looming, and the direction they were heading was the Jifeng Mountain Range.

It turned out that Gu Zheng and the others were in Zhongyuan Village. After watching Elder Mei become the village head as he wished, they 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. On the contrary, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, at least they didn't have to take the risk to hunt that extremely terrifying monster.

Everyone tasted the incomparable delicacy again that night, and this situation will last for a few more days, allowing the hunting couple who should have gone out to rest for another two days.

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

All of this was planned by each of them. Although he could easily kill Chang Xi when he first left, he couldn't dispel the already inflated desire in their hearts.

These originated from the ancient disputes, so the ancient disputes are determined to understand it, and will not cause the deaths of the villagers because of themselves. Although their dreams have always been shattered, life will continue.

So after Gu Zheng had been running around outside for so many days, he finally killed the green beast and went out to Hunyuan Village. It took a little time, but the matter was finally resolved.

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

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

I saw some crystals being taken out of the giant elephant's head before. It seems that what I thought 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 monsters will not let go Pass.

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

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

On the lonely land, there is only a solitary peak towering in it. Although the peak looks steep, the apprentice still looks a little lonely in this spacious place.

At this time, Gu Zheng and the others came to a small hillside not far from this mountain, looking at the surrounding places where no birds shit, they don't know how the people here survive, it feels too difficult.

This is the so-called border, and it is also the location of Shifeng Village.

According to Elder Mei, the last communication was ten years ago. At that time, the head of Shifeng Village led a group of people to communicate. Since then, there has been no news from them, and we don't know how the situation is going.

But according to the usual information, this is really the poorest place, and no one would come here if there is no need, but one advantage is that they can grow some of the same kind of food as they did before, at least there will be no famine.

So every once in a while, we still communicate with each other, and intermarry by the way, at least there are many people who are willing to marry there or get married.

It was supposed to be an exchange every five years, but I didn't come last time, but it's not surprising that it happens often, so Elder Mei didn't feel any surprise.

"It's too desolate here, how do they live?" Shuang'er also couldn't believe that they lived in this mountain, knowing that it would take three days to get to the nearest forest, and it would almost reach them. It's about the same time in the Extreme Front Mountains.

"Who knows, but since I have been living here for many years, there must be their way of life." Gu Zheng looked at the distance, no one came in and out alone, and there was no one in his line of sight to be vigilant. Shuang'er replied casually.

"Let's go, it doesn't look close, I can't see any information from the outside." Gu Zheng said with a sigh, leading the two of them to approach the opposite side openly.

Originally, he had no plan to come here, but when he thought about it, the owner of the cute pet was already dead, but there were still some things left, which made him mistakenly think that he was not dead.

But who knows, under Gu Zheng's repeated inquiries, his master is indeed still alive, but the location is indeed in the Jifeng Mountain Range. Although he doesn't know the exact location, he can lead him to find his master.

Since Gu Zheng had promised it, how could he break his promise? At worst, he would spend a little more time before going through the trap-free hole.

In this case, Gu Zheng decided to come here to take a look, the purpose is the same as before, to see if there are any newcomers here.

Because Gu Zheng also learned from Han Xiu that the number of humans this time is not many, only a hundred or ten, and it seems likely that they will be randomly assigned to each village.

When I came to the bottom of the mountain, I went around a long circle before I found a rugged path along it, which could only allow one person to turn around smoothly. No one has been walking around for a long time. Gu Zheng doesn't know if there are other paths, and I don't want to look for them anymore.

Following this path that is not considered a road, Gu Zheng and Shuang'er climbed up with difficulty. The main reason is that there are many strange rocks outside the mountain, and they are afraid that the entrance of the other party's cave is very hidden and difficult to find when flying up. method.

Just as the two of them climbed halfway up the mountain step by step, a low shout suddenly came from the side.

"who!"

Gu Zheng heard the sound and looked, but couldn't see anyone, but Shuang'er pointed behind a mountain wall, signaling the other party to hide there.

"We are from Zhongyuan Village, just passing by here." Gu Zheng didn't speak, but Shuang'er spoke ahead of time.

A very thin child flashed out from behind. He looked only twelve or thirteen years old, and the childishness on his face hadn't completely disappeared.

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

"Of course, the village head sent us to see what's going on here. You didn't go there a few years ago." Shuang'er bent down and said with a smile.

At that time, when the little boy saw Shuang'er being so intimate, he blushed suddenly, stepped back unconsciously, and whispered, "I don't know, but come with me, everyone is inside, you want Be careful, everyone is sick now, don't get infected."

After speaking, the little boy turned around and continued walking towards the side.

"What's your name, why is there no one guarding you here?" Gu Zheng greeted, and asked the cute pet to return to his shoulder and follow behind him.

"Just call me Xiaofeng. This passage is unnecessary. We dug a tunnel a few years ago, and we can go up from the foot of the mountain. Now only young people like us are sent here to watch." The little boy walked nimbly on this rugged mountain with bare feet. His feet already had thick calluses, and his figure was more flexible than for them.

After turning a few corners, a tunnel taller than a person appeared in front of Gu Zheng and them. There were some crimson rocks around, emitting a faint red light, illuminating the long and narrow passage.

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

"It's very serious. Many elders have died of illness, and my grandfather has also died of illness." Xiaofeng's voice was a little deep, but he could hear it clearly in the passage.

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

"Then Xiaofeng, tell me what's going on?" Shuang'er said softly from behind, "Maybe we can help you."

"I don't know either. When you come back, you can ask the village chief's grandpa. You will be there soon." Xiaofeng said without looking back, and continued to lead the way.

Shuang'er had no choice but to pass a stick of incense. They walked out of this passage, and an extremely huge cave space appeared in front of Gu Zheng. Their position was just a little higher, and there was a slope leading down to the side. All the scenes See everything at a glance.

Although I already knew some of the situation here, I was still a little shocked when I saw it. The area here is not much smaller than the outside, and the reddish light on the surrounding walls seems to be a kind of ore, exuding The faint temperature makes the temperature here just right, much higher than outside.

There are no monsters here to attack. Of course, no one here knows the power of darkness. Counting, there are dozens and caves, crystal like the light of fireflies emanating from it.

Some people were just going in and out, but Gu Zheng could easily see the sad faces on everyone's faces.

Because nearly 200 people all gathered in the west and squeezed together. There was a faint black air on each face, and some were lying on the ground weakly. A simple stone wall was built in the middle, dividing them into two worlds.

The appearance of Gu Zheng and the others also attracted the attention of the people below. A few old men walked out of a relatively large stone house in the east, and Gu Zheng had already walked down and appeared in front of them soon.

"My name is Gu Zheng, and I'm from Zhongyuan Village. I happened to be here for a little business, so I stopped by to see you here." Gu Zheng said to the old man in front who was leaning on a simple crutch.

"Hey, 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 room and talk." The old man's voice revealed a trace of fatigue, but he still warmly invited them to sit down.

At this time, Gu Zheng and the others had already changed into animal skins, which looked less conspicuous than before, so the village chief did not doubt their identities at all.

When everyone just came to the hall, Gu Zheng straight to the point and said to Village Chief Xu, "I saw this just now, it seems that something happened here, if it is convenient, can you tell us?"

Hearing this, Village Chief Xu's forced smile disappeared, and sorrow once again occupied his face. First he sighed heavily, and then he said.

"To tell you the truth, a few years ago, when we were preparing to go to your place, there was a huge monster hiding in a swamp on the way, and a few of us died without noticing it. A few people were injured, originally it was not considered a big deal, it was just a detour, but after only a few hours, some people became unconscious, and some people were more or less weak, so we hurried back."

Speaking of this, the surroundings of Village Chief Xu's face became more crowded, as if they were all squeezed together, and his entire eyes became more sluggish, as if he had returned to that time again, but after only a short breath, he regained his senses for the first time and continued.

"After we came back, we didn't know what happened. It was like some kind of plague. Originally, we were here with almost all skin traumas. Generally, this kind of disease can't be treated at all, so we can only watch them die. But the next nightmare came, and in the following time, people were infected one after another, but we couldn't do anything about him."

"In the first few years, it was only some weak old people. But a while ago, this phenomenon was spreading rapidly, and half of our people were infected. Now everyone is panicked, afraid that the next person will be themselves. , we were all ready to go to you for help, and here you are.”

After hearing Village Chief Xu's speech, Gu Zheng also frowned. He didn't expect the situation here to be so serious. Gu Zheng knew that Elder Mei didn't have such a superb doctor, because the people here are very strange, and they don't have the kind of doctors outside. Minor illnesses and the like, almost all of them died at the end of their lifespan 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 do about this situation.

However, after feeling the gaze from the side, Gu Zheng said to Village Chief Xu, "I think the situation is a bit serious. If you go to our place, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"That's right, but we've exhausted all the methods we can, and there's nothing we can do. These things put everyone in danger. If we don't solve our branch, it will completely dissipate." Village Chief Xu was annoyed. Said, the few people next to him were also frowning and sighing.

"Mr. Xu, don't worry, or let us take a look for you, maybe we can help you solve this problem." Gu Zheng pondered for a while, then said.

"You?" Elder Xu looked at Gu Zheng's young face and Shuang'er, who was also young, and then shook his head, "You guys better not get close, that thing is very contagious once it gets close, for your safety, I think it's better Find your priests."

"Who says I'm not a priest anymore, otherwise why would there be only the two of us coming and going here." Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and a faint green light appeared in his hand.
