Qinghuang whispered at this time: "Did you hear the conversation between the two people just now?"
"Well, maybe people within the Sekiling Tribe have some kind of rebellion plan." After thinking about it, Guan Heng continued: "But these have nothing to do with us. You and I should hurry through Linghu Mountain and continue towards the Lingwang Palace. It’s important to find the whereabouts of Xiao Hei and Remnant Soul.”
After hearing what he said, Qinghuang slightly frowned: "That's right, just do what you want."
The two of them discussed it, walked through the dense jungle, and walked for more than ten miles, and finally came to the entrance of the col that enters Linghu Mountain. There were many Sekiling people coming and going here, and there were even traces of other lower-level Spirits. Quite lively.
"A Heng, didn't Xuan say that? The four tribes don't seem to be very harmonious, but why do these people seem to be fine, chatting together?"
As soon as Qinghuang finished speaking, Guan Heng replied: "Maybe the Red Spirit Clan is more friendly to others? You wait here first, and I will ask for directions."
After saying that, he ran forward a dozen steps, stopped a passing Spirit Tribe person, and started to inquire.
"What? Guest, do you want to go to the direction of the Spirit King's Palace?" The middle-aged Red Spirit tribesman looked Guan Heng up and down a few times. Although he felt that he was different from himself, he still explained carefully: "Now you want to go directly through From here, it seems a little difficult to get to Guling Gorge.”
Hearing this, Guan Heng frowned slightly: "Oh, why is this?"
"It's like this. Recently, two major events have happened near the Red Spirit Tribe. One is that the Red Spirit Tribe rebelled and led hundreds of rebels led by 'Lie'. They appeared around here repeatedly and harassed the passing Spirit Tribe people. They all killed them without mercy. This 'Lie' 'It's a disaster."
The middle-aged Ling clan member shook his head, and then continued: "Also, the date of the 'Evil Beast Siege' that occurs once a year is approaching, so the path between the Chi Ling and Bai Ling clans will soon be completely blocked."
At this moment, Qinghuang, who was walking with the demon deer Xiaojiao, asked casually: "Uncle, what is the evil beast surrounding the mountain?"
"Well, this matter is long-term." The middle-aged Spirit Tribe man didn't seem to be in a hurry, so he patted the flat rock beside him and motioned for the two of them to sit down with him. He looked at the hurried people coming and going. The Spirit Tribe man slowly spoke: "That was about hundreds of years ago..."
It turns out that the Sekirei clan is far more populous than the other three clans. Of course, they are also the strongest, but they never use their power to overwhelm others and treat the other three clans equally.
Once there is a dispute between the other party, the elders of the Sekiling Tribe will come forward to mediate to balance the relationship between the various tribes. This situation lasted until more than a hundred years ago, when a shocking and major incident suddenly occurred.
That year, groups of evil beasts outside the Spirit King's Palace and around the territories of the four lower Spirit Tribes began to wreak havoc, attacking and killing Spirit Tribe people everywhere. The population of the Hua, Black, and White Tribes suffered heavy losses. Not even one out of ten was left alive. The Sekiling clan also lost more than a thousand lives.
In view of this, the chiefs and elders of the Sekiling Tribe immediately made a decision to gather all the remaining members of the other three tribes into the Sekirei territory in Linghu Mountain so that everyone could escape this disaster.
The Red Spirit Tribe's move was simply a act of kindness, and the other three tribes were naturally grateful. In this way, the four lower spirit tribes united as never before, gathering all their living forces in one place, and began to deal with the hordes of evil beasts that were attacking crazily.
The bitter battle lasted for more than several months. Just when the four tribes could hardly hold on any longer, the evil beasts finally couldn't bear it anymore and retreated far away. The victory was finally captured by the Spirit tribe with great difficulty.
However, the alliance of the four tribes also collapsed at this time. There is only one reason, that is, the other three tribes can only share the difficulties with you and cannot be together for a long time. In this case, trouble will inevitably occur.
However, almost at the same time every year, large groups of evil beasts will still make a comeback. Over the past hundred years, the Four Spirit Clan has gradually reached a tacit understanding. As soon as this time comes, hundreds of the best members of the clan will immediately go to Linghu Mountain of the Red Spirit Clan. Gather here and join forces to hunt down those ferocious beasts.
"In this way, the annual activity of resisting the evil beasts has become a competition for the young elites of the Four Spirit Clan to hone their strength."
The middle-aged spirit tribe member smiled and then said: "Most of these people are in the black energy realm and should not be underestimated. It is natural to be more confident to deal with evil beasts together, so every time when they are 'hunting', the spirits Outsiders are not allowed to enter the area near the lake and mountains, so as not to accidentally hurt innocent people by evil beasts."
"So that's it." Guan Heng touched his chin and whispered, "But we have something urgent to go to the Lingwang Palace. Wouldn't it be very troublesome if the road is blocked?"
"Young man, do you really want to go to the Spirit King's Palace? I have an idea." The middle-aged Spirit Tribe man chuckled: "But you have to have confidence in your own strength."
"Have you confidence in your own strength?" After hearing this, Qing Huang was a little confused: "Uncle, what do you mean?"
"Oh, that's right."
The other party explained: "This year, the traitor 'Lie' appeared in the Sekiling Tribe. This guy took away a large number of young and strong men from the Sekiling Tribe. The elders of the Sekiling Tribe may have felt that their tribe was not strong enough, so they decided to recruit helpers from outside. Act as a guard when we enter the vicinity of Linghu Mountain and hunt evil beasts with the other three tribes."
Having said this, the middle-aged man paused for a moment, then continued: "Young man, if you have confidence in yourself, you might as well go to the elders of the Sekiling Tribe to sign up to accompany you."
Hearing this, Guan Heng's eyes suddenly lit up: "I understand. In this case, we can take the opportunity of hunting with them to go near Guling Gorge."
"Not bad, not bad, you are really a smart young man, and you really know everything." The middle-aged Spirit Tribe man stood up with a smile and said, "Okay, we have been chatting for a long time, I want to say goodbye and go home, please. "
Guan Heng and Qing Huang immediately said: "Thank you uncle for your advice. I am very grateful."
After the other party walked away, Guan Heng said to Qing Huang: "It seems that we really have to take the opportunity to be bodyguards."
"Hahaha, what does this have to do with it?" The other party said with a smile: "If there are many people, it will look lively and interesting."
Guan Heng scratched his head and said deliberately: "Don't you think you feel bored after staying with me for a long time?"
"Uh..." Qinghuang heard this and said with a really expressionless face: "If I watch it for a long time, I really want to vomit..."
"What?! Damn girl, are you asking for a beating?" Guan Heng became anxious upon hearing this, and immediately rushed over with bared teeth and claws: "It's unreasonable. I'm going to punish you by kissing me a hundred times as an apology."
"You're dreaming, Xiaojiao, let's run quickly." As soon as Qinghuang said these words, she jumped on the deer's back, and the demon deer Xiaojiao lifted her hooves and ran away with her.
Guan Heng fanned the dust in front of him and cursed: "When I catch you...ahem...I will make you look good."
