Xiang Ning's words were like a hammer hitting their hearts, making them all lose their minds.
In the end, the village chief stood up. He ordered people to close the gate and let everyone in the other villages leave. Then he stayed alone, looked at Xiang Ning and said, "Sir Xiang, can you please
Come with me?"
Xiang Ning didn't say anything more, nodded, and then followed the village chief to his house. There was also no furniture here, just some simple hunting tools and a simple bed, not even a long chair.
The old man sat directly on the ground and then asked Xiang Ning to sit on the bed, but Xiang Ning didn't do that. He didn't want to take advantage of an old man.
The village chief seemed to be able to see what Xiang Ning was thinking. He shook his head and said, "You actually have many other choices."
Xiang Ning nodded. It is true that he had many other choices to handle this matter better, but the situation at that time, Xiang Ning had sworn back then, now that a demon is trampling on the human race, how could you possibly make him endure it.
Besides, it’s not like he doesn’t have that strength.
"At least I saved one person, didn't I? And you don't need to worry that the statue will not continue to protect you. The energy of the statue can last for at least ten years, and as long as you are always so pious
If you deal with him, he can persist longer, but as the village chief, you should also know that the statue will actually absorb your energy and spirit, which is considered as maintaining the safety of your own village."
The village chief was silent for a moment, and then said: "I understand, I understand, but there are more than just demons. They... come in groups, and they are scattered among the human villages downstream. Although you are powerful, you are
People in the upper reaches, you don’t need to associate with dwarfs like us, you are supreme, you..."
Listening to what the other person said, Xiang Ning interrupted him directly: "There is no need to praise me so much. I may be different from what you think. At least you and I look very similar. We are the same person, not some dwarf."
The village chief shook his head and said: "No, we have sinful blond hair and blue eyes. In our impression, we are the symbol of dwarfs, and you, with black hair and black eyes..."
Xiang Ning sighed and didn't want to say anything more. He couldn't change his mind in a short time. The only way was to kill those demons directly. I believe Xiang Ning, he definitely has such strength.
But he had to confirm what kind of mountain and sea realm this was, because it was very weird.
Xiang Ning can feel the existence of the altar in any mountain and sea world, but now, when he comes to this mountain and sea world, he doesn't know if he didn't enter in the correct way or for some reason.
Anyway, I didn’t feel the atmosphere of the altar at all.
And those demons don't look like creatures that have appeared in the world of mountains and seas, but there is no guarantee that they have changed after 30 million years?
Xiang Ning didn't dare to vouch for it.
"Do you think those demons will come again?"
"Yes!" Regarding this question, the village chief was very sure, as if something had happened before.
Seeing that Xiang Ning seemed to be very curious, the village chief smiled bitterly and said, "If you are okay, can you listen to a little story about me?"
"please."
"About three hundred years ago, I had just turned eighteen and was the bravest hunter in the village. My father was the previous village chief. He was the only one I had ever seen who could fight the monsters outside.
Man, these demons actually appeared back then, and this kind of worship has been going on for thousands of years."
As he spoke, he could see the nostalgic look in the other person's eyes, but as he talked about it, he became more and more frightened. Listening to his narration, you could feel how prosperous and prosperous the village chief was.
of integrity.
What on earth could make his waist bend like this?
"Until one day, my mother was chosen as the candidate for worship. My father loved my mother very much and was even willing to resist the devil for him."
"The results of it?"
"As you know, he killed the demon, but it attracted the current demons, even a large wave of demons. Their power made it impossible for us to resist, and I was the chosen one, as was our village back then.
With hundreds of families, all the adults were killed, leaving only some children, and they asked us not to pass this thing on to the next generation. If they find out, they will kill us all."
Long voice trembling.
Xiang Ning looked at each other: "Have you never thought of resisting?"
"Resist? What should we use to resist? They are too strong. Just that one demon can kill us all, let alone the demons in the sky?" The village chief sighed deeply.
"Forget it, forget it, I've lived long enough, and the fear from back then has been lingering in my mind. It's only now that I understand what these demons want to do. They want to kill all of us.
They were raised in captivity and became their food. In order to continue the descendants of the village, I could only deceive the children and make them think that they had to kneel down and worship the statue to get shelter. To get shelter, they must worship. This is a beautiful statue.
lie?"
"Today's villages can no longer go back to the past. People in these villages now feel that they are like that and will not want to resist. In a few generations, maybe they will feel that they are food.
Are you born to contribute to those demons?"
"I'm guilty..." the village chief said, and collapsed. It was him who personally led the village into the abyss. He wanted to die, but he didn't. He had been waiting for someone who dared to resist.
But as he waited, he realized that he was already old, and he was born one generation after another, and his performance today disappointed the village chief. No one dared to stand up. Oh no, he stood up, but he was scolded.
But it was Xiang Ning.
"Run now. Although you are very strong, if you face those demons..." The village chief did not say it, but the meaning was already obvious. "
"But I want to ask you to take away my adopted daughter...and Yamoli. At least, they have saved you."
Xiang Ning shook his head. The village chief seemed to have collapsed. He lowered his head and seemed to have aged more than ten years.
"I won't leave, I will show you how fragile those demons are."
The village chief did not raise his head, but just sat there, as if his soul had been extracted.
