The river flowed silently, the green branches of the willows by the river drooped, and the ducks were still swimming freely, chasing and quacking. On one side of the bridge, the villagers anxiously waited for the arrival of bad news.

Suddenly, a village woman's eyes lit up, holding the child's hand and jumping and laughing and shouting: "Fugui, it's my family's wealth, he's fine!"

In the distance, a dozen tall and strong men were striding towards this side, and one of them walked faster and faster, quickly breaking away from the group, and gradually, he ran, running so fast, crossing the wooden bridge as quickly as the wind, and picking up the village woman and the child with open and strong arms.

This person is Lao Guan, no, Lao Guan is dead, and his name is Ma Fugui now.

"Rich, let it go. The village woman, who had always been strong, blushed, she never thought that her family would have such a side to her wealth. In public, it's really a shame.

"Don't let go, don't let go of death. Ma Fugui said in a low voice.

He is the only one among all who is sincerely grateful to the Golden Lion, he died three years ago, and now, three years later, in the hands of the Golden Lion, he is alive again. It's a good feeling.

As for the others, at this moment, they all had complicated expressions, they tried to control their legs, but their legs involuntarily walked faster and faster.

With each step, they felt that the original world was a little farther away from them, and they were a little more familiar with the strange village, and when they crossed the wooden bridge, it was as if they had crossed the Nai He Bridge, and in an instant, they were dead, and they were alive.

In the woods, the other three also left, leaving only the golden lion and the eldest prince.

The breeze blows, and the leaves and flowers on the trees sway. The golden lion clasped his hands together, glanced at the cheering villagers on the other side of the river, and then at the corpses occasionally exposed in the fields on this side of the river, and his heart was heavy, and he couldn't help but say, "My Buddha is compassionate." ”

He immediately sat down and chanted Buddhist scriptures.

......

When the eldest prince woke up, it was already late at night.

The flames crackled and burned, lighting up the surroundings.

He sat up, looked around blankly, and after a while he was completely awake, and understood that he was in a cave, Shandong was quite spacious, and there was a crisp cry of frogs outside, that is, the two big bears huddled in the corner of the cave and held a few small bears with a look of grievance and trembling, this scene made the corners of his eyes twitch.

The golden lion was sitting cross-legged on the ground, pounding something with a cylindrical stone. Seeing him wake up, he handed over the things in his hand and said, "Apply it to the wound." ”

The eldest prince stretched out his hand with difficulty and caught the thing handed over, only to find that it was a polished and rough stone bowl, and in the thick, heavy and rough stone bowl, there was a black-green sticky substance, which must have been pounded like this by the herbs picked by the golden lion.

The eldest prince opened his shirt and carefully applied it to the wound, and suddenly, a tingling pain made him gasp. However, his lungs, which had been dull, were much more relaxed, and he had to take a breath of cool air and then breathe a long sigh of relief.

"Where are we now?" asked the eldest prince as he applied medicine to the wound.

"In Bear Cave, of course. The golden lion said as a matter of course, adding a handful of wood to the fire.

The eldest prince was a little speechless, and he said, "I mean, where are we now, what state are we in, what kind of mountains, or what kind of forests. ”

"Oh, you said it earlier. The golden lion smiled embarrassedly, grabbed a fruit and wiped it on his body, and said, "We are now near Hezhou City." ”

"Near Hezhou City. The eldest prince pondered for a while, he was familiar with memorizing the map since he was a child, and soon remembered where this was, and couldn't help but admire: "Your speed is really fast, and it can only be compared to the eight hundred miles of urgency." ”

"Eight hundred miles is not as fast as me. The golden lion took a bite of the wild fruit, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Once I was chased and killed by a leopard spirit, and he was exhausted to death by me. Once, I was chased and killed by a group of wolf demons, and it only took one night and day to cross a grassland nine hundred miles wide in one breath, and the group of wolf demons was directly thrown by me so that I couldn't even see a shadow. Another time, a Taoist priest wanted to take me to alchemy, but I ran from East Kunlun to East China Sea City in one go, across the entire Central Plains. ”

The corners of the eldest prince's eyes twitched again, he didn't expect that the life experience of this stupid-looking monster was so colorful. What happened to him, and how he developed this great escape ability, can't help but make people think deeply.

"That's right. The eldest prince diverted the topic: "Why do you want them to stay, I think, not only do you want them to atone for their sins! ”

The golden lion stopped the topic unsatisfied, gnawed a wild fruit in one breath until only the clean core remained, and then threw a wild fruit into the arms of the eldest prince, and then spoke: "Let them atone for their sins is only one aspect, it is very important that I want to protect those villagers as much as possible, after all, it is more than 200 lives." For my supernatural powers, this is the fourth time and the only time I have used it semi-forcedly on people. ”

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the top of the cave with some sadness, tears of forty-five degrees slid down his cheeks: "I am homeless, so I want to find Brother Ghost Cry to join him, but he is not at home, and those of his clan say that he went to Da Zhou, to the north of the big river." So I rushed over there, but as soon as I got close to the river, I saw a group of soldiers burning and looting, at first I thought they were Qin troops, but after subduing them, I realized that they were originally soldiers of the Great Zhou, and burning, killing and looting were all because of the king's order. The king of the Great Zhou was already mad, and his soldiers were also mad, and they were madly tormenting other innocent people, some of the people were tortured to death by them, and some of the people were also crazy, and then joined them. ”

Speaking of this, the golden lion shuddered: "I've been walking around there for two days, do you know what I saw?"

The eldest prince did not answer, his brows furrowed.

The golden lion said to himself: "I have seen the devil, some madmen are no longer as simple as madmen, they have become madmen, and they are not one or two, nor a group of two, but thousands, tens of thousands. Moreover, the number is still increasing, they are like snowballs rolling down from the top of the mountain, rolling bigger and bigger, I even suspect that in another year or two, a group of mad demons will sweep the whole Great Zhou, if no one stops it, in just a few years, they will sweep the entire Nanzhan Continent. ”

The eldest prince didn't know what expression to use at this time, he was shocked and speechless, his brain quickly digested the amazing news from the mouth of the golden lion, if what the golden lion said was true, then, he also understood what was wrong with Da Zhou, why he suddenly turned his face and attacked him, and why Ma Quai's illness suddenly became so strong overnight.

Because, Ma Qu is sick and crazy, and he is probably crazy.

The golden lion was still saying: "I stayed there for two days, and then they found out, and under their pursuit, I escaped, and met you, and when I saw that peaceful village, I thought of the villagers who fell in madness, and they had no resistance, and if a few of them could come out and lead them to escape, maybe they would be able to escape, so ...... Feed...... Hey, are you listening?"

The golden lion poked the eldest prince's arm with his fingers, and the eldest prince came back from his sluggishness and grabbed the golden lion's collar: "Quick, take me to find the ghost crying." ”

"Don't worry, your ...... hurt"

"It's not a question of my injuries or my life, it's about the fate of the whole Terran and the races that are close to it. Quick, as fast as you can, even if you break your leg, send me to Devil May Cry as soon as possible. ”

The golden lion was stunned for a moment, he looked at the eldest prince with red eyes and panting like a cow, he was a little frightened, and said weakly: "You can't bear it." ”

"As I said, it's not my life anymore. ”

"Then ...... tomorrow morning"

"Let's go now. ”

The golden lion was about to cry, and the eldest son, who had always been gentle and reasonable, went crazy to make people fearful, and he said aggrievedly: "Hungry, can't run fast." ”

"Then hurry up and fill your stomach, hurry, what are you still doing in a daze, eat quickly!"

As he spoke, the eldest prince thought of something, and hurriedly took out the jade talisman and said, "By the way, help me inject some demonic energy before eating." ”

The information transmitted by the jade talisman is limited, but it can also send some warnings to the ghost cry.
