Ten meters away, when I rushed out, the other party did not react, from behind the weight of the whole body plus the impact of the forward rush suddenly acted on the body of the person in front of me, and then the other party was heavily crushed to the ground by me, but did not make any sound. I put the Tushan knife on his neck and shouted, "Don't move! ”

The other party did not resist fiercely, but his body trembled obviously, obviously frightened. I stood up, holding the knife in one hand and grabbing his neck with the other. At the same time, Tang Yuyan also ran out from behind, and she didn't dare to speak out when she saw this scene.

"Turn your face slowly and don't try to resist, or I'll be disrespected." I opened my mouth, but the other person didn't seem to hear me, so much so that I repeated it two or three times in a row and he still didn't respond. In desperation, I could only pull this person up from the ground, stand up and take a closer look, this is a middle-aged man who looks like he is in his fifties, with a sighing beard, one eye seems to be a fake eye, the whole person is very scared, and he is still trembling faintly when he sees me.

"Who are you?" I opened my mouth to ask, but he looked at me blankly, but did not answer, and only then did I see some clues, and the person in front of me seemed to be unable to hear the sound. That is, the man seems to be deaf.

"Can't you hear me?" I asked again, and he was still staring blankly at me, and it wasn't until I pointed to my ear that he nodded his head and opened his mouth to say something, but it seemed that he was not only deaf but also mute.

"Deaf and dumb?" Tang Yuyan also muttered strangely.

In the camp, this deaf and mute man of unknown origin was surrounded by a few of us, and he was very panicked, like a beast under siege, looking at us with his peripheral eyes, and from time to time he would wave his hand to show that he had no ill will. The fat man wrote a few words on the soil with a branch and showed it to him, expecting him to be able to read and understand the words, but who would have thought that he was still illiterate.

Good guys, this group of people in Zhongtianmen is really good enough to do things, and they found someone who can barely communicate with people to feed the centipede, and it seems that they planned not to let people know the secret from the beginning.

"Come on, it's a person who can't read words, and he's a deaf and dumb person, how can he communicate? Exchange fart! The fat man shook the branch and said angrily. I also scratched my head, I couldn't think of a way, but I didn't expect that at this time, Tang Yuyan walked to the opposite side of the man, picked up a branch and sketched it on the ground, and drew a vivid picture in a few strokes? The few people depicted on the picture seemed to be a few of us, and we saw a person who was about the same as the fifty-year-old man in front of him, and everyone had a puzzled expression on their faces. The fat man glanced at it and said, "What's the use of this?" Can't read words, can you understand paintings? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man nodded suddenly, and then rolled up his sleeves, revealing his forearm to show us. But it also shows his identity, he is indeed a person from Zhongtianmen.

Tang Yuyan continued to paint, this time drawing a picture of everyone curious about what the old man was doing, the old man showed a relieved expression on his face, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, looked at the tattered one, I took it over and looked at it, there were some words written on the paper. The age is a little old, and a lot of handwriting has been blurred, but the general meaning can still be seen one or two, it seems to be an announcement from Zhongtianmen, specifically for this old man to show others, telling others that there are taboos in this place, and indiscriminate interference will anger Zhongtianmen.

I looked at it from the side and felt strange, didn't Zhongtianmen do this to be full? There are no three hundred taels of silver here, and the stone tablets have been replaced by monsters, why did they write such a piece of paper?

"Look, this old man was left here by Zhongtianmen to feed the demon beasts, it is estimated that Zhongtianmen is afraid of exposing the location of the nine-square pattern, but he is afraid that the old man will be caught when he is feeding, so he wrote this piece of paper specifically for him to show others. I can't see what to ask, what is this old man going to do? Put it back? The fat man asked curiously.

I glanced at the old man, and smiled at the moment: "Of course you can't hold it, people are also poor people after all, let's put it back, it won't hinder us anyway." ”

After I said this, the old man looked dazed, and did not look like he was pretending to be deaf and stupid, and then continued to try to interrogate a few words, and the other party released him after knowing nothing.

Let him go on the front foot, and on the back foot I will put on the demon crossbow on my back and prepare to go. The fat man, who was about to go to bed, looked at me strangely and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"I don't feel at ease with that old man, especially the piece of paper, I always feel that there is a problem. Let him go in order to put a long line to catch a big fish, do you think, where did a person who even has a problem communicating with us get so much flesh and blood? Zhongtianmen will definitely give him money regularly, even if this old man is really a fool, if the person who gave him money can catch it, then there will definitely be more information asked! I opened my mouth, and the fat man immediately put on his demon crossbow and accompanied me out of the camp.

The old man walked faster than I expected, and by the time we caught up with him, he had already walked a long way, and all I could see was his back. I frowned and said, "This old man is walking fast enough." ”

"It looks like a practicing family." The fat man's words hit my heart, this old man is indeed very likely to be a practitioner, although he is a cripple, but he walks faster than ordinary people, and it seems that the direction of the destination is very clear, but it is not like running for his life but more like a purposeful way to go somewhere.

The fat man and I immediately followed, and followed one after the other for about twenty minutes, and at this moment there was already some distance from the nine-square pattern we found, and what appeared in front of us was actually the old western-style building. The old man walked to the old western-style building and looked back vigilantly, and the fat man and I hurriedly hid behind a big tree on the side of the road. The old man didn't notice us, so he jumped over the big iron gate of the old western-style building and walked in.

"Good fellow, light as a swallow!" The fat man sneered.

"Let's go, go in and see what medicine is sold in this old man's gourd!" After saying that, the two of us sneaked up and climbed through the big iron gate and entered the interior of the old western-style building.

When I walked to the first floor, I heard movement, it seemed to be the sound of several people talking, at first scared me and the fat man, and I thought it was discovered, and I found out after finding a place to hide, and the source of the sound was the second floor. We went up the stairs and stood in the doorway and looked inside, there was a faint light, and we could vaguely see about three or four people, including the old man we had caught earlier.

"You've been discovered!" Someone was reproaching him, and his tone was full of blame.

"Can you blame me? The nine-square pattern has not been discovered for so many years, how do I know that it will be discovered? But it doesn't matter, I pretended to be deaf and dumb and deceived them. "This grandson is really pretending, I sneered, signaled the fat man not to rush out, let's continue to squat and watch a good show.

"Who are they?" Someone else asked.

"It was a group of young people, five or six of them, and the one who grabbed me looked like a head, and there was an old man next to me, who had been meditating, and the old man seemed to have some kind face, as if he had seen it somewhere." The old man who pretended to be stupid recalled.

"Did they discover the Nine-Sided Pattern?"

"I must have found it, and I have broken one of the patterns, otherwise I would not have been discovered, they were waiting for me at the place of the black centipede, and I pounced as soon as I appeared. I don't even have a chance to resist! The old man said angrily.

"It seems that it is not safe here, and we should also speed up the work of awakening the Ancestor. It's just that the seal is difficult to break, and we don't have many disciples outside, so it's difficult to wake up the ancestor now. ”

"Isn't there another way? As long as that method is used, the ancestor will definitely wake up. "Someone mentioned something like a shortcut, and I immediately listened intently.

"You mean a life for a life?"

"Yes, our nine-party pattern has been discovered, if they continue to break the seal, the ancestor will be in danger, it is better to act early than to wait until that time to act hastily!"

Several old guys around them fell silent, and at this moment, a purple light suddenly lit up on the second floor, and a gloomy voice came along with the light.

"Don't panic, it's not time to ...... yet"
