Traveling through time 10,000 years late, I was forced to become a powerful person
Chapter 118 The strange ring
Bai Xue's big eyes were staring at the ring on the young man's right hand. He kept making low purring sounds in his throat, and the hair all over his body exploded as if he was angry.
But under Bai Xue's angry appearance, Shen Yuan could faintly feel the kitten's body shaking constantly, as if the anger was just to cover up the real fear in his heart.
This was the first time Shen Yuan saw Bai Xue showing such an expression. You must know that even when she faced Fubo Longjun and Prince Jidu before, Bai Xue could proudly raise her little head and compete with those two strong men from thousands of years ago. Look at each other.
On the surface, his expression remained unchanged, but Shen Yuan was secretly wary of the young man wearing the ring.
Shen Yuan stretched out his palm and gently stroked Bai Xue's head, soothing the little guy's uneasiness.
Finally, Bai Xue calmed down and lay quietly on Shen Yuan's shoulder, but her eyes still glanced at the ring from time to time.
On the other side, after listening to the report, the hunter leader suppressed the grief on his face and said to the young man:
"Aman, this gentleman saved us. Why don't you thank him quickly?"
Ah Man turned his head, and Shen Yuan saw his face clearly.
He looks young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the first impression his face gives people is that he is honest and honest.
Wearing simple animal skin clothes on his ridiculously strong figure, even though Aman's hands were stained with a lot of blood, he still showed no intimidation under his simple and honest appearance.
"Hello, sir, my name is Aman."
As he spoke, Aman stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Shen Yuan, but after taking a look at Shen Yuan's white and new gown and the blood and minced meat on his hands, he immediately retracted his hand with a shameful smile on his face. .
No matter from which angle you look at it, this young man seems to be an honest and honest young man who is harmless to humans and animals.
"My surname is Shen."
Shen Yuan just responded casually and did not communicate in depth.
Although the young man named Aman seemed to have no problem, it must be unusual for the ring on his hand to cause such a strong reaction from Bai Xue.
Compared with the behavior of a strange young man, Shen Yuan was more inclined to believe in Bai Xue, who was close to him, and naturally he was a little wary.
Ah Man was very disappointed that Shen Yuan did not continue to communicate, but then he immediately showed a sad expression and said to the hunter leader:
"Uncle Li, we lost three people not long after we came out this time. I want to take their bodies back first."
The hunter leader thought for a moment, then nodded and said:
"You go and tidy up, we will go back to the village first and then make plans."
Ah Man nodded repeatedly, and then he and others began to sort out the ruins and collect the remains of the hunter's body that had been torn apart by the bear demon.
During the collection process, many hunters were still whispering and looking at Shen Yuan with hatred.
The hunter leader knew very well that Shen Yuan's strength was just a matter of killing them all, so he had to apologize to Shen Yuan quickly:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen. They were also temporarily unbalanced just now. Please forgive me, Mr. Shen."
Shen Yuan frowned slightly and glanced at the hunters. Although saving people was just a casual thing for him, no one would be happy to save such a group of ungrateful guys.
Sensing the displeasure in Shen Yuan's expression, the hunter leader suddenly said:
"Mr. Shen should be from outside, right?"
"That's right." Shen Yuan nodded.
"It's normal that Mr. Shen doesn't know the rules of our Yunfu Mountains." The hunter leader said with a sad look on his face:
"We mountain people in the Yunfu Mountains are protected by the mountain gods. As long as we do not leave the territory of the mountain gods, we can protect ourselves from the invasion of monsters in most cases.
But we are also restricted by the oracle of the mountain god. We are not allowed to kill any monster clan, otherwise the entire village will be rejected by the mountain god.
Once there is no protection from the mountain god, those monsters hovering outside the village will swarm us all and tear us apart! "
Having said this, the tall hunter leader's body trembled slightly, and uncontrollable fear appeared in his eyes.
"They are also worried that Mr. Shen's killing of the bear demon will cause the mountain god to become angry and affect the safety of the village, so they are full of hostility towards Mr. Shen."
The hunter leader's words answered Shen Yuan's doubts, but what followed was even greater doubts.
"Then why don't you leave the Yunfu Mountains?"
The hunter leader's face suddenly showed astonishment.
"Leave?" The hunter leader's face showed unprecedented panic, as if there was some kind of unspeakable terror in Shen Yuan's words.
"No, no, no! We absolutely cannot leave the Yunfu Mountains!
We are still protected by the mountain gods in the mountains, and we only need to pay some tribute as a price to save our lives from the demon clan.
But if we leave the Yunfu Mountains, we will definitely have a dead end! "
The hunter leader's words surprised Shen Yuan, and he couldn't help but ask: "Why is this?"
The hunter leader looked at Shen Yuan with a hint of doubt:
"Since you come from outside the Yunfu Mountains, don't you know that there are more terrifying monsters outside the Yunfu Mountains?
Those demons will not abide by the rules of the mountain gods and can kill humans arbitrarily. After they go out, they can only live in fear every day.
In front of them, human beings are just a group of ants who kill at will. Only strong people like you can save yourself and come to the Yunfu Mountains. "
Shen Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect to get such an answer.
Beyond the Yunfu Mountains mentioned by the hunter leader, it seemed that the world he was in contact with was completely different.
Seeing that Shen Yuan was stunned and did not refute, the hunter leader showed a true look on his face and complained:
"We Yunfu Mountain people have lived in these deep mountains since childhood and have had very little contact with the outside world. Since a large number of monsters began to appear more than half a year ago, we Yunfu Mountains have directly cut off contact with the outside world.
Thanks to the appearance of the mountain gods we have worshiped for generations, we are protected from demons. "
“There were strong men like you in several villages around us before, and they also wanted us to leave the Yunfu Mountains.
The strong man even said that there are no monsters outside at all. Only the Yunfu Mountains are the gathering place for monsters. After leaving, you can live in other cities at will without fear of being attacked by monsters.
At that time, there was a village that listened to the bewitchment and prepared to migrate with the strong man. However, it died from the siege of the demon clan on the way. In the end, there were only a few dozen people left in the village of more than 700 people. "
"Mr. Shen, I know that you strong men are good and capable people. For example, you also helped us kill the bear demon.
But we mountain people have our own way of life, so please don't continue to interfere with our lives. "
After listening to the hunter leader's explanation, Shen Yuan finally understood.
These mountain people originally lived in the Yunfu Mountains and had very little contact with the outside world. After the spiritual energy tide, the demon clan occupied the Yunfu Mountains and completely cut off contact with the outside world.
This makes the mountain people believe that the outside world has been completely occupied by monsters, and only the Yunfu Mountains can maintain a pure land.
"wrong!"
Shen Yuan narrowed his eyes and immediately realized that there was a certain problem.
If it was just a simple error in information exchange, it would be impossible for these Yunfu Mountain residents to be so frightened. There must be other reasons.
While Shen Yuan was contemplating, the hunter leader also walked into the ruins of the temple and helped many hunters check the injuries of others.
"Get ready to leave. Pay tribute to the mountain god as soon as possible. Maybe you can also ask for forgiveness from the mountain god."
Several Yunfu mountain residents who finally collected the bodies sighed and discussed.
At this moment, Ah Man, who had a simple face, scratched his head and suddenly said in a low voice:
"Mr. Shen saved us, should we ask Mr. Shen to return to the village to repay him?"
As soon as these words came out, the hunters got into a mess and asked in low voices:
"repay?"
"He killed the bear demon, which would offend the mountain god."
"Aman, you idiot, is this allowed to be said?"
Even the hunter leader looked embarrassed.
He didn't have the same prejudice that those hunters had against Shen Yuan, but the other hunters were obviously hostile to Shen Yuan, and something might go wrong if he invited them rashly.
Aman, who was scolded by several hunters, whispered with aggrieved face:
“I think, I think since Mr. Shen is so powerful, he might be able to help us plead with the mountain god.
Maybe the mountain god can be lenient and forgive us this offense. "
As soon as they heard that the mountain god could be asked to relax, the eyes of several hunters who were still scolding Aman suddenly lit up and they all made voices of agreement.
"I didn't expect that Aman's stupid brain would be useful one day."
"That's the reason. Since he killed the bear demon, he should be allowed to explain to the mountain god."
Even the hunter leader nodded heavily after thinking for a moment, and then whispered a warning to the other hunters:
"I don't care what your little thoughts are. Since you want to invite Mr. Shen, you must be respectful to me.
If we offend Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen may be able to kill us all without waiting for the mountain god to get angry. "
The hunter leader's words suddenly reminded many hunters of Shen Yuan's sharp sword that killed the bear demon.
Previously, because they were worried about the wrath of the mountain god, they had no scruples about Shen Yuan. Now that they thought about it carefully, everyone suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
"Don't worry, we will never offend him."
"All you need to do is invite him to our village."
After a while of whispering, the hunter leader walked out of the ruins of the temple with a warm smile on his face:
"I think Mr. Shen must have traveled a long distance to come to the Yunfu Mountains. How about he stop and rest in our village?"
"By the way, let us also express our gratitude to Mr. Shen for saving his life."
The hunter leader didn't know that their voices couldn't be hidden from Shen Yuan at all, and those little calculations had already fallen into Shen Yuan's ears.
However, Shen Yuan only thought about it for a moment and then agreed.
"good!"
He didn't want to pay attention to these thoughtful hunters, but he was still quite interested in the mountain god.
Ever since he obtained the magical power of calling rain in Yunmeng Village, Shen Yuan was still very willing to take the initiative to get in touch with things he didn't know about, and maybe he would get unexpected gains.
Under the leadership of the hunter leader, Shen Yuan gradually left the ruins, while Aman walked at the back because he was responsible for carrying the corpse.
Looking at Shen Yuan in front of him, Aman seemed to hear the sound of swallowing saliva in his ears.
"What a perfect body!"
