Chapter 457: A Walled City Without Man
When the leader of the mountain people heard this, he sighed and sat on the ground, and Xiao Xiong and the two mountain people also sat on the ground.
"A few days ago, a group of people suddenly attacked Bayue Peak!" said the leader of the mountain people, his eyes as if they were about to erupt into flames.
Xiao Xiong's heart was cold, and he thought to himself that looking at this huge cottage, there were hundreds of people in it, could it be that they all encountered accidents. But there is no trace of a fight at the gate of the cottage, and the more I think about it, the more strange it becomes.
Xiao Xiong said cautiously: "Could it be that someone slaughtered the village?"
The leader of the mountain people closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said, "That's not it, it's just ...... Now there is no one in the cottage anymore. ”
"Since there is no slaughterhouse, where are the people?"
"A thousand times more vicious than the slaughterhouse, if I see them, I can't wait to bite off their flesh piece by piece!"
Xiao Xiong looked at the gritted teeth on the mountain man's face and fell silent. He sighed and said, "But the girl of the Yue family will soon be the wife of the valley lord of the Heavenly Tribulation Valley, who has such courage?"
Although Xiao Xiong said this, the appearance of a man appeared in his mind. It's just that this matter is not simple, and he doesn't dare to make preconceived assumptions.
"Yes, our lord's family has an in-law relationship with the Heavenly Tribulation Valley, but this group of people even dares to do it, the key is...... Who, we don't know. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiong was speechless, staring at the leader of the mountain people with a puzzled expression.
The leader of the mountain people looked at the ground with blank eyes, and said faintly: "Since a few days ago, there will be one child missing in the cottage every day, and in one night, half of the children will disappear, and the next day it will be a third. ”
"Is there such a strange thing? don't you people even notice it?" Xiao Xiong said curiously.
The mountain man shook his head, "That's why it's terrifying, there are no enemies, no traces, it's as if nothing happened, there is only one way up the mountain to Bayue Peak, and those people really don't know what demon magic is used." ”
Xiao Xiong remembered a rough idea of Bayue Peak in his mind, even he couldn't figure it out, there was only one mountain road in and out, although it was only a third of the children, but it was a lot, the high martial arts of this group of people were a bit unbelievable.
"So all the people from Bayue Peak have fled?" Xiao Xiong asked cautiously.
The mountain man nodded, "Three days have passed, and the children in the cottage have almost disappeared, and those people have left a note telling us to leave the cottage and maybe have a chance to see their own children." ”
"It's really despicable, to make a fuss about children!" Xiao Xiong said, his eyes involuntarily looked at the three girls, she leaned against the trunk under the tree, and actually slept quietly.
Seeing Xiao Xiong's eyes, the mountain man couldn't help but say: "The people in the walled city have been evacuated, leaving only the three of us, let's see if the person who stole the child will leave any more information."
Xiao Xiong nodded, unable to think of a clue for a while. said: "I think those people should just want to use their children to blackmail you, and they won't really do anything to the children!"
When the mountain man heard this, he also smiled bitterly, "It's been five days, and everyone is looking around except for the cottage, and there is no news." ”
"If there's anything I can do to help, please be sure to tell us. Xiao Xiong said loudly.
"You're so seriously injured, or leave us alone, do you really want to go into the city?" The mountain people were a little unconvinced, so much had happened to Bayue Peak, and rumors had spread in the Heavenly Tribulation Valley, no matter who it was, at this time, you had to think carefully about it when you came to the Heavenly Tribulation Valley.
Xiao Xiong nodded, "I'll go in to find herbs, if I find anything abnormal, don't worry, I will definitely come and inform the three." ”
Seeing this, the leader of the mountain people didn't say much, "The three of us are in the southeast corner of the walled city, if there is anything, you can also come to me!"
Xiao Xiong bowed with both hands, and then walked under the tree and pulled the three girls up, the weather was hot, and the three girls slept in the shade of the tree. He muttered unhappily.
Xiao Xiong ignored her, grabbed her arm, and was about to go to the cottage, but stopped at the door and looked up at the huge wooden door.
Seeing this, the leader of the mountain people got up and pointed to the right side of the stone wall. Xiao Xiong understood, but he didn't find anything abnormal, and after a closer look, it turned out that a rope had been set up on the stone wall on the far right.
"Thank you three for your help, if you come back with your life, I will definitely help you find out about this matter. ”
After Xiao Xiong finished speaking, the mountain man did not answer, but smiled on his face, Xiao Xiong knew that the mountain man was simple and straightforward, and did not like to be polite, so he didn't say much, smiled, and took the three girls to the side of the rope!
After Xiao Xiong finished speaking, he lowered his head slightly, waiting for the three girls to jump on his back, but the three girls grabbed the rope and climbed up.
I saw that the three girls were unhappy, but their hands were not slow, and they had already turned over and entered the walled city in a few clicks. Xiao Xiong grabbed the rope, if it was before, several ups and downs would have gone in. Now with all the effort, I can only climb up inch by inch.
Xiao Xiong was stunned and climbed up little by little, but it was the three girls on the city wall, looking at Xiao Xiong who was like a snail, and couldn't help but say: "You said you wouldn't be able to climb the wall, then I will bring you up, it's really slow." ”
Although Xiao Xiong didn't feel tired, his current body, with the strength to breastfeed, could only do this, looking at the impatient face of the three girls, he was a little embarrassed.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Xiong finally climbed the stone wall, the three girls pulled Xiao Xiong up, standing on the top of the cottage stone wall, Xiao Xiong looked around, and the walls between them were full of quaint stone houses, large and small, and they couldn't see the end at a glance.
"I didn't expect so many people to live in Bayue Peak. After Xiao Xiong finished speaking, he remembered that when he was here, there were only a few thatched huts on Bayue Peak.
The three girls have gone down the rope, Xiao Xiong wants to find the location of the Bodhi Cave, he doesn't remember the specific direction, but there is another way, that is, wait for the night, this Bayue Peak to see the moon, always the largest and roundest, the most of the two, is at the entrance of the Bodhi Cave.
The three girls were noisy and hungry, Xiao Xiong gasped, his current body was like a rotten wood and withered branches, even if he hunted game, it could be said that it was a thousand difficulties.
"Three girls, let's go to the house and have a look, maybe there is something to eat!"
The third girl was already impatient, and entered a small room with Xiao Xiong, most of the furniture in the room was made of bamboo, and in addition to these simple furniture, there was nothing in the room, let alone food. Even small things like tea seasonings didn't stay.
It seems that the kidnapping of the child scared the mountain people on the Bayue Peak a lot, and the three girls rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, but they didn't find anything to eat. Without waiting for Xiao Xiong to answer, he had already rushed out of the house.
When Xiao Xiong came out, the three girls ran over with their lips pouted, "I've found three or four houses, all of them are the same, I don't have anything to eat, what should I do? ”
Seeing this, Xiao Xiong couldn't do anything, "Let's go find the Bodhi Cave first, I don't think there will be any animals in the city." ”
The three girls haven't walked so much since they were children, and they can't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the past two days, and the more they think about it, the more they feel aggrieved, "I can't walk anymore, I want to eat meat!"
Xiao Xiong also knew that these three girls were not very old, and they had always stayed in Feiyumen, and this time they did suffer a lot when they came out with themselves, and when they saw her say this, they felt a little sorry in their hearts.
"You wait here for me, I'll go find you something to eat, by the way, don't run around, just stay here and wait for me to come back." ”
After hearing this, the third girl lay down on the bamboo bed with a loose body, and said weakly: "You go quickly, I'll sleep for a while." ”
Xiao Xiong went out and walked in the southeast direction, but all the way through, except for the occasional bird flying in the sky overhead, there was no living thing to catch.
Xiao Xiong walked for a while, and was a little disheartened, so he had to go back to find the three girls, it seems that this hungry thing has to go to consult the three mountain people of Bayue Peak.
The three girls slept for a while, and when they got up, they returned to their old appearance. Xiao Xiong led her to the southeast corner of the walled city. After doing it for more than two hours, the two of them walked with dry mouths, and there were no houses around, not even mountain roads, but they did not find the three mountain people.
The two had to continue walking, and after walking for a while, the sun was already about to set, and neither of them found any wild game and wild fruits, but found a pond not far away.
The three girls are funny and jumping, and the kettle in his backpack has long been gone. Xiao Xiong was also overjoyed, Xiao Xiong thought that there should be some frogs, grass carp and the like in the pond. But this pond is knee-deep and crystal clear. Not even many aquatic plants. Xiao Xiong only felt a little strange, but more disappointed.
Seeing that it was about to get dark, Xiao Xiong didn't dare to take the three girls to go deeper, and planned to make a bonfire on the spot, waiting for the three mountain people here, although the three girls were girls, they were very skilled in making fires, and they found some dead branches and broken trees around, and after a few blows, the warm flame had already appeared.
The sun has just set, but the moon of this Bayue Peak has already risen, Xiao Xiong looked at it blankly, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable, Zhao Qinglan was in the hands of Huang Xiaowei, and Hong Yan'er was under Luo Miao of Feiyumen. Now he is like a wasted man.
The three girls sat aside, watching the bonfire shine on Xiao Xiong's serious face, and asked faintly, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Xiong came back to his senses, smiled indifferently, and shook his head.
"I know, you have something on your mind. Actually, I have a lot on my mind. The third girl suddenly said seriously.
Xiao Xiong sat cross-legged, first he closed his eyes to recuperate, but he still wanted to try if he could use the Immortal Medicine True Scripture. After eating the Walking Corpse Pill, my body is weird and abnormal, and I really don't know if I can survive to the Heavenly Tribulation Valley.
Seeing that Xiao Xiong didn't speak, the third girl sighed and said, "Don't think nonsense, I'll go find something to eat!"
Xiao Xiong's heart softened, he didn't expect that this willful and crazy third girl would be so sensible, and he whispered: "Don't go far." ”
"Hmm" the third girl agreed softly, picking up her little backpack and walking into the bushes.
Xiao Xiong sank down, he didn't feel the pain, at this moment he forcibly gathered his true qi, and his whole body was stiff like an iron plate, but this lifeless body, let alone true qi, even his various meridians and veins, Xiao Xiong couldn't feel it, and after a while, Xiao Xiong was sweating profusely, but there was no sign of improvement.
He has really become a complete ordinary person, Xiao Xiong thought like this, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the moonlight had sprinkled all over the earth at this moment, although it could not be said to be as bright as day, but this bonfire seemed to have become completely unnecessary.
