The old man's non-explanation and denial made me a little surprised. I was admitting that he locked up Long Feifan and that he wanted to deal with me?
Faced with my surprise, the old man did not explain, but said, "Stay going forward, you have to find a place to rest."
Long Feifan had already stopped me, drew his sword and said to the old man, "Why should I lock me up? Who are you, what is your purpose?"
The old man looked indifferent, "What's your purpose?"
"Your purpose is to kill dragons, right?" I took a step sideways and asked at the old man.
"If you didn't hit me, I would kill you, even if you were my descendant. But now I'm not sure whether to massacre you. Give you a chance and give this world a chance." The old man said, looking at Long Feifan and said, "I locked him up here, of course, there is my reason. You can ask the Leech King, what would happen if I didn't hide him here."
I looked at the old man suspiciously, then turned my head to look at the Leech King rolling in the mud, "What is the consequence he asked you to tell me."
The Leech King's body stretched and contracted a few times before he slowly spoke: "If I were not in the trapped ghost formation, I would be very likely to be scattered!"
"How could it be!" I looked at the Leech King next to me in disbelief.
The Leech King said that among the leech members here, in addition to ordinary leeches, there are some more special leeches, and those leeches can absorb nutrients from ghosts. Once they are entangled by those things, even the most powerful ghosts may be scattered.
For ghosts chased by those leeches, the trapping array that may trap them but will not cause substantial damage to them is much safer than leeches.
Long Feifan and I looked at each other skeptically, wondering if the old man and the Leech King had scammered us together to lie to us.
"If we want to come, do we still need to lie to you? In simple terms, I can capture you two without having to do anything now. Do you think I still need to lie to you?" said the old man.
As he said, the old man had turned around and started walking forward, "Believe it or not."
I was stunned. I watched the old man walking forward quickly and walked more than ten meters away in an instant. When I remembered what Bai Mu said, I decided to believe the old man.
This old man is right. If he wants to deal with us, it is really a very easy thing. Why do you have to do so much trouble?
We still need old men now. Without old men, I think we can't move forward. In this place where it is difficult to distinguish even in the southeast, southwest and northwest, we don't know where we are looking for. Even if we leave the swamp, we may not be able to find the next ancient tomb. Only by using the old men who know everything can we reach our destination.
Long Feifan could still easily feel what I was thinking. Without me talking more, Long Feifan said, "Let me believe it for now."
Then, we accelerated and followed the Leech King in front.
Just when I was about to catch up with the Leech King, the King of Hell fell from the sky. When he saw me, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything more, but fell beside me.
"Where have you been? Didn't you help me see how An and the others are doing? Why did they disappear?" I looked at the King of Hell and asked.
The King of Hell didn't say anything, his eyes were staring at the back of the old man in front of him, his expression a little strange.
After we walked a while, a huge tree appeared in front of us. The tree was absurdly large, with a diameter of about two meters, and the tree was lush and leaves were lush. The old man told me: "Let's rest on this tree tonight."
The tree was big, and there was a place to rest on the branches. I was thinking about how to get up.
The King of Hell grabbed my back collar and felt that I was loosened. I was already picked up by the King of Hell.
"Be careful of the old man." When he flew into the air, the King of Hell suddenly said.
"What does it mean?" I asked in surprise.
"It was him who led me away. This person is definitely not a good person." said the King of Hell.
Stopped on the tree branch, the King of Hell stood in the wind, squinted his eyes and looked at the old man and Long Feifan who were still below, and said, "There should be an ulterior motive to lead me away and want to isolate you."
When I wanted to ask the King of Hell again, the King of Hell had already jumped on the higher-level branch, laying on the tree with his eyes narrowed, with a faint expression, and I don’t know what he was thinking.
At the same time, Long Feifan and the old man had already come up. Long Feifan stood in front of me, looking up at the King of Hell with a silence.
And staring at the old man in front of him, I felt very confused.
"Stay rest, you have to keep moving forward at dawn." After saying this to me, the old man disappeared, and then he saw that he had already climbed the branches of the King of Hell.
I sat down on the tree branch, Long Feifan sat on one side of me, his eyelids half-retracted, and after a while, I asked me: "What did the King of Hell tell you?"
"Like you, I said the old man is weird." I said.
"..." Long Feifan didn't say anything, but just looked up at it.
After turning off the light, I leaned against the back and said, "Just be careful. Even if the old man is really weird, we can't do anything to him. Take a good rest when it's time to rest. I still have to walk when it's dawn. I don't know how Ma Xiaolan and the others are doing."
Life is so helpless. Many times, we cannot control our destiny, and many times, we cannot control ourselves.
The night passed and it was dawn. All I could do was follow the old man and continue moving forward.
I really want to end all this soon. When I walk in such a haunted place, I still have to be scared and afraid. I don’t know when it will be.
The old man walked in front without saying a word, Long Feifan and I slowly followed the old man, followed by the King of Hell and the King of Leech.
The King of Hell seemed to admire the King of Leech. When he first saw the King of Leech, he asked the King of Leech if he wanted to work in the underworld. When the King of Hell said that he didn't want to die yet and did not go to the underworld, the King of Hell kept following the King of Leech and coerced and tempted him.
The taste of the King of Hell is indeed very perverted, and all the collections are monsters with huge appearances.
When the King of Hell asked the Leech King if he wanted to go to the underworld for the tenth time, I turned my head and asked, "Are you planning to gather him and let it deal with me?"
The King of Hell glanced at me, didn't say anything, turned his head and continued to look at the Leech King...
Long Feifan drew the knife, I reached out to stop it, and the old man in front shouted: "Go quickly!"
We accelerated our pace and followed the old man.
When walking until noon and stopped to rest, the old man said, "I have something to say to you."
I glanced at the old man and said, "Tell me."
"I didn't tell you." The old man glanced at me, "You go and avoid it, Leech King, Hell King, Long Feifan, don't leave you three."
"Is there any secret that I can't listen to?" I wondered what trick the old man was going to play, so I asked, "Are you planning to win over these people to conspire to kill the dragon?"
"If you want to kill you, you don't need to find someone to conspire. It's very simple. I'm a dragon slayer. Killing you is easier than killing ants." The old man glanced at me and said.
I walked away in disappointment. In fact, Long Feifan is here, and I am not worried about the old man playing any tricks.
After sitting down by a tree, I took out the things and ate a few bites, while looking at the old man from afar. Several people were sitting there saying something. Although I could see people, I couldn't hear what they were saying.
I don’t know what I can’t listen to. Although I was a little curious, I didn’t care. After I finished eating, I leaned back and fell asleep in a daze.
Tat, Tat—
Crazy, Crazy-
When I suddenly opened my eyes, I found that it was raining heavily.
I hurriedly packed up the things and looked up, but I couldn't see the old man, Long Feifan and the others.
The direction just now was empty and there was not a single person. At first glance, there was an endless quagmire.
I turned around and looked around. The same was true. No one was there, not even a ghost. The King of Hell, Long Feifan, the old man, and even the Leech King disappeared.
There was a dark cloud above my head, and the heavy rain poured down. My whole body was already wet. The cold rain fell on my body, and there was only a numb feeling.
It was getting dark, and I stood alone on the swamp, with only a strong feeling of loneliness.
Where have people gone? When they woke up, the people who would never leave me disappeared without a trace.
I nervously called Long Feifan's name a few times, no one responded, and there was no response. The voice gradually spread and then disappeared.
I thought I had another nightmare, but when I reached out to pinch myself, I knew clearly that I was not dreaming, I was in reality.
However, where have people gone, Long Feifan, who is the least likely to leave me, has disappeared.
Looking at the heavy rain, it seemed that it would not stop in a moment or three moments. I took out a raincoat and put it on myself. Now I didn’t even have the strength to think about anything, and I felt a little indifferent for a moment.
After a long period of silence, I decided to continue moving forward... Where did the weirdness come from? Why did Long Feifan and the King of Hell disappear silently? Could it be because of the old man or because of something unexpected happened?
I don’t know, I don’t know anything. Along the way, these messy problems always bother me and give me a headache.
I can't think about it, and I have no time to think about it. I can only solve the root of the problem as soon as possible. As long as I leave this place and find the tomb of the gods, I believe that there will be no more problems to bother me.
At this moment, I felt more and more that the buried treasures in the tomb of the gods might not be any treasures, at least it would be no good for me.
