"King, let's go." Minbei glanced at Lin Zihan. The two of them were already standing on the mountain behind the tribe leading to the Dragon Clan ruins. From here, you can clearly see the entire tribe's scattered houses, as if they were entangled in the mountains. A giant dragon in the middle.
"Do you have any explanation for the layout of the houses here?" Lin Zihan looked at the rows of stone houses. The stone tablets engraved with dragon patterns were just between the gaps between the houses, resembling a pattern.
"That is a kind of dragon pattern left by the ancestors of the sub-race people. It is said that it is placed according to the dragon talisman. With the dragon pattern, it can drive away the poisonous fog and other races living in the poisonous fog area." Minbei said, proudly Said, for the young man in front of him, apart from the respect in his blood, Minbei only thinks that he is just a young boy.
Twenty-three years old, in the eyes of the sub-race people, he is still a child. After all, the life span of most sub-race people is about two hundred years. The old patriarch is more than 180 years old and is still going strong.
"Let's go." Lin Zihan took one last look at the village where he had lived for three days, and at the clan leader's room where the group of people were using. It was in the core of the village and the highest place in the village.
"Are there other races living in the poisonous fog area?" Lin Zihan said as he walked. Regarding the poisonous fog area, human beings have only not yet set foot in the poisonous fog area. The territory where sub-race people live cannot be simpler.
"Yes, the most common ones are ferocious beasts. Every year, the village is attacked by alien beasts. This is why the village is located in this location. The tribe will migrate every twenty years..."
…
"It's dinner time, where is Zihan?" Yan Bing sat at the table and looked at the people sitting at the table. Lin Zihan was often invited to the table early. Today, until the table was filled with food, But he didn't appear for a long time.
"I have sent Qi Dong to call him. The king said, 'He is not hungry, just let us eat first.' Kexin, eat quickly." The patriarch said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into slits when he smiled, slightly. The skin folds that showed wrinkles became deeper.
Before he finished speaking, the clan leader picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish for Ke Xin, and put it into the bowl in front of Ke Xin. The fish almost fell out due to a careless hand, and there was an obvious mark of being strangled on his index finger.
Wu Kexin, who didn't notice anything at first, didn't care. After all, whether Lin Zihan was in the training camp or the hunting base, it was common for Lin Zihan not to eat on time. Instead, it was the patriarch's hand that caught Wu Kexin's attention. She looked at the three people behind the patriarch. Uncle Bei was not there!
"Where's my brother?" Wu Kexin was about to move his chopsticks, but stopped in mid-air, with a pair of big shining eyes, slightly pink, "I can feel that he is no longer here, and Uncle Bei is not here either. , they went there, right.”
Seeing Wu Kexin's bright eyes, she was such an innocent little girl, but now she can't hide anything from her. Her questioning tone was like a judgment. Even the old patriarch felt that Wu Kexin exuded The momentum he showed was violent and furious.
"Yes, they have been gone for an hour. Northern Fujian will take good care of our Dragon King. Just wait here obediently." The patriarch knew that the matter could not be hidden. Perhaps Wu Kexin did not realize that his Changes, but the divine factor she released already showed that she was very angry now.
"I don't care about your Dragon King, I care about my brother!" Wu Kexin's eyes showed a fierce look, and she clenched the chopsticks in her right hand and started to quickly put rice into her mouth.
"You two, eat quickly. Let's go find my brother after eating." Wu Kexin didn't even raise her head, and mumbled words in her mouth. She only glanced at Su Yu and Yan Bing from the corner of her eye, and they were still stunned. land.
"Did Zihan go to the dragon clan ruins?" Yan Bing still felt a little surprised and looked at the clan leader.
The clan leader nodded and said nothing. He originally promised Lin Zihan to hide this matter, but Wu Kexin is no longer a child. Although she has been away from here for ten years, she is very familiar with this place and the tribe's people. Very familiar, he knew that the four guardians would not leave easily, let alone the eldest of the four guardians.
"Eat quickly." Seeing the clan leader nodding, Su Yu also picked up the rice in front of him and began to put it into his mouth quickly. He didn't chew slowly as before, and didn't care about the rice particles sticking to his mouth and falling out. The soup fell on the table.
Ke Xin acted very calmly, as if he had guessed it a long time ago, and he responded calmly. He did not cry, but knew clearly that he wanted to have a full meal, and then catch up with Lin Zihan, hungry Traveling through a poisonous fog area is not a smart thing to do.
"Do you really want to go?" The clan leader tried to mediate, describing the dangers of the poisonous fog area and the horror of the dragon clan ruins. He hoped that the three of them could retreat despite the difficulties. However, seeing that the speed of the three of them eating did not slow down at all, they even stopped eating. Never cared about what I said.
He knew that this was his most failed lie and his most failed attempt to dissuade him. What they cared about was not their own safety. On the contrary, the more dangerous it was, the more determined they were to go.
"Since you are going, Ke Xin, take this with you." The patriarch said, taking a pink dagger from the hands of the person behind him. The charming pink color was somewhat similar to Wu Kexin's eyes. But it's more charming and threatening.
"If you really encounter any strange beast, it's easy to defend yourself with this." The clan leader carefully placed it next to Wu Kexin, then stood up, held the crutch in his hand, and walked slowly outside the house, taking a look at the gradually darkening The sky is falling.
Lin Zihan chose to set out at night, hoping to hide it from everyone. By the time they noticed, he might have been far away from the tribe, and Wu Kexin would not have the idea of chasing him out.
"Clan leader, are you really safe that Sister Kexin will go find them?" Quenan, one of the four guardians, said. As the youngest of the four guardians, Quenan has just become the fourth guardian and is only a few years older than Kexin. That’s all.
"So what if you don't worry? She came here for her brother, Lin Zihan, and our allegiance is to the Dragon King. Unfortunately, her brother is the Dragon King." The clan leader said lightly, with a look in his eyes. concerns about the future.
The appearance of the Dragon King, the revelation of the secrets of the subraces, and a corner of the veil of this world is slowly being unveiled. The ancient prophecies, the dragon patterns engraved in the dragon ruins, and the one foreseen in the dragon tomb Things may be revealed, and the world will take on a completely new situation.
"This is fate. All the secrets are destined to be revealed by the great Dragon King in this era." The clan leader said with a wild smile. The disappointment in his heart dissipated, and there was only awe of the Dragon King and the satisfaction of seeing the Dragon King in his life.
The three people in the room were all eating with their heads down. They ate very quickly. Soon, the delicious food on the table was wiped away. The three of them looked at each other and understood in their hearts that none of them could let Lin Zihan go. It would be superfluous to say more. They didn't want anything to happen to Lin Zihan, regardless of whether he was the Dragon King or not.
Wu Kexin grabbed the dagger on the table with her oily little hands. Yan Bing adjusted the exoskeleton center on his chest. Su Yu also put on his wrist brace. The three of them walked out of the room, still without speaking. Wu Kexin In front, the two of them were behind, walking towards the sunset behind the mountain.
…
"King, we can't go any further. The front is the territory of alien beasts. It's very unsafe to drive at night." Minbei glanced at the sky. The sun had set for a long time, and the sky had turned into darkness. There was no end in sight. The dark night exudes a strong smell of blood.
He had been in a hurry all afternoon, and Northern Fujian did not dare to ask why he did not choose a sunny morning to set off, but set out on a dark afternoon, because seeing Lin Zihan's solemn expression, he had already guessed that Lin Zihan Han's thoughts.
After gathering firewood and making a fire, in less than ten minutes in northern Fujian, a blazing fire was lit under the rock wall of a cave that could barely be called a cave.
Seeing the skillful skills of Northern Fujian, Lin Zihan admired these sub-race people who could survive in the wilderness. Without relying on various technological means, the sub-race people could still live so comfortably. Once humans left the technological society, even If power and energy are temporarily lost, even the network will fall into chaos.
"You subrace people live in a poisonous fog area, how do you know where it is safe and where it is dangerous?" Lin Zihan looked at Minbei. This slightly rough uncle had a pair of rough hands, like a spear in his hand. Road rust.
"It is said that the poisonous fog area was formed due to the decline of the ancient dragon clan, the decay of corpses and the lingering souls of the dead. In the sub-race tribe, there is an ancient secret method that allows the gods to sense the sub-race people and sense the movements of the poisonous fog area. and the fluctuations of strange beasts, so the patriarchs of the past generations were all sub-race people with divine senses.
We believe that this ability is because people of the divine sense subrace can communicate with the heroic souls of the dragon clan. It is the dragon that guides us to find a resting place in the poisonous fog area to avoid the harassment of strange beasts. "Minbei looked at Lin Zihan with blazing eyes, and handed over the roasted sweet potato in his hand.
"In your opinion, is the dragon really your monarch?" Lin Zihan took the hot sweet potato and weighed it in his hands. The fine dragon scales covered the palm of his hand, so he was no longer afraid of being burned, but he looked like it was steaming. Lin Zihan still habitually poured the sweet potatoes in his hands.
"Perhaps people of the subrace have long forgotten the rituals left by their ancestors, don't care about the inheritance of the dragon patterns, and even started to complain about why they have to live in the wilderness.
But the patriarch once said that he could feel that the ancient dragon descended to this wilderness to protect his secrets, and for his loyal followers, the dragon would also descend guidance to guide the subrace people in this dangerous land. to survive. "
Minbei smiled.
"The patriarch always likes to say some weird things, and he never forgets that the subrace people exist because of dragons."
"Rust, rustle, rustle..." A rustling sound sounded, attracting the attention of the two people.
"I think alien beasts have appeared. The alien beasts in the poisonous fog area are horizontal. They are the lords of this poisonous fog area." The big copper-colored hands of Northern Fujian held the spear, and the rust-like tip of the spear exuded a compelling force. chill.
