Jiufeng defeated two giant birds by himself, and proudly flew to Yan Mo with injuries all over his body to show off and treat him, but he couldn't find his two-legged monster.
The sky and the earth are all white, only the 100 meters in front of the collapsed earthen house is scorched black, and there are traces of fire everywhere. The fire melted all the surrounding ice and snow. In a short time, the land with a radius of 100 meters will turn into a swamp. trend.
When Jiufeng saw the scattered corpses, he became smaller and flew everywhere to look for his silence.
No, there is no silence of his in the corpse here, he can smell the smell of silence, even if he is burnt into a ball of charred black by the fire.
Instead, there were the remnants of his newly acquired little brother bird, as well as other two-legged monsters.
"Jie!" Jiu Feng flew away, heading towards Tucheng. He thought Mo Mo and Zhan Monster had been captured.
More than two hours later, a group of figures standing on a sled appeared on the snow.
"The fire is in this direction... I found it! Look over there!" Bing Qi was the first to discover the strangeness of this land on the long-billed beast.
Although snow fell continuously during the two hours, it could not completely cover up the traces. On the contrary, the snow melted as soon as it hit the ground, making the land even more muddy.
The witch looked relaxed. Although they were stopped by Tucheng soldiers, those Tucheng soldiers didn't dare to approach him at all. They could only sneak around him. When they saw him begin to cast a large-scale curse, they were all scared away.
The curse witch was very proud, but soon he saw the flames rising into the sky in the distance. The land was all flat and covered with heavy snow, and the flames became extremely obvious.
Guessing that Yuan Zhan had probably been "successfully" captured by the people of Tucheng, he brought people to find his apprentice.
But the strange thing is, what about Jiufeng
The sleigh cart stopped near the scorched earth, and everyone ran towards this side with great effort.
Ziming didn't know what happened, so he wanted to run with Ding Ning.
Ding Ning turned his head, "I don't know what danger lies ahead, you stay here to guard the sleigh and the long-billed beast."
Ziming hurriedly said: "Okay, okay."
What Ding Ning wanted to say, seeing his cramped appearance, swallowed it back. Not long after the leader led the priests away, this man caught up with them on a long-billed beast with a large package on his back.
When asked what he was doing here, he stammered and couldn't explain clearly. When Bing asked him to go back politely, he finally choked out a word and said that he wanted to go with them.
Asked him why he wanted to go with them, he couldn't explain clearly, and it was the witch who pulled him aside to ask clearly. It turned out that Da Ao wanted to associate with Jiu Yuan, but he was afraid that Heitu City would know and blame him, and Da Ao was not strong. He didn't dare to brazenly say that he would send soldiers to follow Yuan Zhan and Mo Wu, and Ziming felt that he might not be able to awaken his bloodline ability if he stayed in Da'ao. He wanted to do something for the tribe, and wanted to go out to see, so he was bold caught up.
Ding Ning and the others couldn't laugh or cry when they heard this, and asked him what to do if he couldn't catch up
Ziming stammered and said that he didn't think about it that much.
It was difficult for Ding Ning and the others to decide whether Ziming would stay or not, so they planned to wait until they met the leader and priests to see what they wanted.
Ding Fei turned to greet his brother, "Brother, hurry up!"
Ding Ning catches up with Ding Fei.
"The fire is in this direction. It seems that this place has also been burned by fire. Where are the leaders and priests? Where are they?" Ding Fei rushed to the collapsed earthen house and circled around, and shouted: "Master Mo! Your Excellency ,Where are you?"
Ding Ning and Bing were more cautious, and both of them were carefully observing the ground. As soon as they arrived here, they felt that the temperature in this area of 100 meters was much higher than other places, but they didn't see a lot of firewood.
Could the fire light they saw be made by high-level fire control fighters? Ding Ning thought.
Da Da raised his head and sniffed, then lowered his head and walked while sniffing.
The witch closed his eyes, and opened them after a while, "There is a strong residual soul power here, and Ah Zhan and Mo probably fought a battle with the people of Tucheng."
Ding Ning raised his head, "Where is Mo Da? The leader pretended to be captured by the Tucheng people, and Mo Da was also captured?"
The witch also felt that something was wrong, he could feel the air here was full of sadness, anger, greed and despair, but he didn't feel that there was any living person nearby.
Da Da suddenly let out a howl, and poked a black lacquered thing that looked like a stone on the ground with a stone axe.
Everyone heard his cry and ran over together.
"What is this?" Ding Fei squatted down.
Bing grabbed him, "Don't move, this is a charred corpse."
"Ah?" Ding Fei didn't realize that it was a corpse.
Ding Ning squatted down and poked a wooden spear, "It's a part of the corpse, like the thigh of some kind of beast."
"Lord Zuwu, can you recognize what this is?" Ding Fei called Curse Wu.
The curse witch was looking down at something, and when he heard the cry, he couldn't tell what the corpse was, so he could only infer: "It should be Yingzhao, the mount of the Tucheng Temple and the highest-ranking warriors." , there are not even a few of their city masters. If their priests come out, they will definitely take Yingzhao."
"Oh!" Da Da discovered another whereabouts of the corpse.
This time I saw a piece of charred corpse, and no one could recognize who or what it was.
The curse witch frowned, and replied: "Find out all the corpses you can find, and get them here."
Answer is in charge of finding corpses mixed in the mud and scorched earth everywhere, and Ding Ning and the other three are responsible for simple cleaning and transportation.
About half an hour later, the crowd only found four pieces of remains, but except for the relatively large piece of Yingzhao's left leg found at the beginning, the other three pieces could hardly tell what they were. I can see that it is half a palm, and there are two more, so I really can't tell what it is at all.
The curse witch put away all his laughing expressions, and his brows became more and more frowned, "How could there be only such a little corpse left?"
"Lord Zuwu, is there something wrong?" Ding Fei asked.
"Touch the ground to see if it's still hot," the witch ordered.
Everyone squatted down and touched the ground immediately, Ding Fei was surprised: "Really, it's very hot."
The witch asked, "How long has it been since we saw the fire and came here?"
"According to our Jiuyuan time, it's about two or three hours." Bing and the others couldn't accurately judge the time without asking the sky.
The witch pointed them out, "If it's a fire fighter, unless there are flammable materials that can make their flames burn in large quantities, the land here can't be so hot after the fire has been extinguished for so long, and it's not even a year. Small pieces, but this large piece is like this."
"what is that?"
The witch had thought of a possibility, but he didn't want to say it out, he didn't believe that things would develop to that point, his disciples were all counted, how could it be possible for Yuan Zhan to have such a thing.
"I will use the soul-chasing technique in the spell on these corpses. You all retreat to the sled car. I won't let you come over. Don't come over."
"Yes." Although everyone didn't understand what the soul chasing technique was, seeing the serious face of the curse witch, no one objected, and they all left this muddy, weird and scorched earth.
The curse witch squatted down, took out a herb from his bosom, chewed it in his mouth, spit it out, wiped the four corpses with his hands, and then he started... dancing around the four corpses
Yuan Bing and the others didn't know what the witch was doing, and thought his movements were strange at first, but gradually they felt that the movements of the witch were full of strange rhythms and an indescribable mystery.
The witch's movements became faster and faster, it was no longer like a dance, but more like a wild beast repeatedly killing some powerful enemy beast.
"Woo!" With the dance of the witch, a strange cry sounded from all directions.
The sky turned out to be much darker than before.
"Woo!" The cry turned into a scream, and the voice was full of hatred and unwillingness.
A whirlwind revolved in the opposite direction around the witch, the snowflakes in the sky showed a strange spiral rotation scene, and the mud on the ground also rotated upwards.
Ding Fei and the others all opened their mouths wide open. The priests are amazing too, but he has never done such a trick before. more terrible.
Bing felt that he saw something, but when he looked carefully, he couldn't see anything.
The curse witch suddenly let out a shrill roar, and his dancing body became faster, even Bing could hardly see his movements clearly, and the others could only see dancing shadows in a circle.
"Tucheng! I'm at odds with you!" The witch's dancing movements stopped, her hair was disheveled, her expression was like a ghost, and she was full of murderous aura. She trampled the four corpses on the ground with one foot, turned around and walked towards Ding Ning and others.
"Go to Tucheng!"
"Lord Zu Wu, what happened? What did you see?" Ding Ning asked urgently on behalf of everyone.
"Go, earth, city!" The curse witch didn't want to say anything at this time, there were too few corpses, and those souls were scattered in sevens and eighties, and there was still a strange energy in this scorched earth, which made his pursuit The soul technique couldn't be fully used, so that he didn't see much of the soul fragments he captured, but it was enough for him to know that his apprentice suffered a big loss, and Yuan Zhan's life and death were unknown.
He didn't feel the soul power of his apprentice and Yuan Zhan in the vicinity, but he didn't believe that the precious disciple he met so hard died just like that. He wanted to go to Tucheng to see what happened, if...
The curse witch took Yuan Bing, Ding Ning and others away, and Jiu Feng never came back.
The land was silent again.
Day after day, white snowflakes fell down, but no matter how much snow fell, as long as it fell on the scorched earth, it would melt and make the land there even more muddy.
If this situation continued for a long time, maybe there would really be a swamp here, or a Jedi where not a single blade of grass grew in summer, but after twelve days, strange changes appeared here again.
The center of the muddy ground suddenly began to sink, and a big hand with thick knuckles and slender fingers stretched out from the soil and grabbed the mud outside.
The fingers are working hard, as if someone below is trying to crawl out from the ground.
Another hand stretched out... No, that's not a human hand, it's a long, thick branch that looks like a tree root.
The branches are twisted and entangled, turning into the shape of human hands and arms.
The ground was pulled away, and a naked body covered in mud finally crawled out from the ground.
It's just that this body looks a bit weird. Most of his body is still human flesh, but there is a walnut-sized hole between his eyebrows. Most of his right upper body and his right arm are missing, all made up of twisted branches.
The man has tribal tattoos on his face, but there is no mark representing the rank of warrior. It is unknown whether it is hidden or completely disappeared.
After crawling out of the ground, the body lay on the ground without moving for a while, as if exhausted.
The soil in a radius of 100 meters began to tremble, and something emerged from the soil, bright red like fire and blood.
These big ones were no bigger than a grain of rice, and the small ones like dust began to quickly gather towards the body.
But these red dots all stopped when they approached the surface of the body, they couldn't enter the body, as if they were rejected.
The red dots began to gather together as if consciously, and slowly gathered into a bright red crystal the size of a melon seed.
The bright red crystal began to force the barrier that prevented it from going back, trying to penetrate it and return to the place it should go back to. This body is its own!
However, the power to stop the bright red melon seed crystals was not weak, and the melon seed crystals stabbed the man's forehead between the brows for a long time without getting in.
Just then the man opened his eyes.
His eyes were very dark, like the abyss in the sea, and like the eyes of a dead man, without any fluctuation or emotion.
He began to crawl forward as if unconsciously.
The melon seed crystal followed him closely.
Men crawled through the muddy scorched earth and onto the snow.
The bitingly cold deep snow did not stop him from moving forward, and he persevered in crawling in one direction.
There were deep marks on the snow where the man had crawled.
The man climbed a long way, he seemed tireless, and had only one goal in mind.
Forward and forward, sooner, sooner!
The melon seed crystal, which was following the man, saw that it still couldn't get into the place it wanted to go in. It got anxious and started to back up. It had to gather strength and try again.
At this moment, the tattoo-like bud marks on the man's heart pulled themselves out from the man's heart.
The man snorted, turned over, and looked down at his chest.
The sprout split two weak rhizomes as feet, and quickly and accurately climbed towards the man's head.
The melon seed crystals outside were in a hurry, and they didn't care about colliding with the barrier again before they were ready.
The man looked at the sprouts and melon seed crystals without any reaction.
Youya crawled faster, but the barrier didn't stop it. It successfully climbed to the center of the man's eyebrows, and looked inside through the hole. I don't know what I saw. soft roots.
Something inside takes it.
The young sprout seemed to be very happy, shaking its head that had already grown four leaves, and got into the dark hole.
"Hmm!" The man felt a sharp pain in his head, covered his head and fell on his back.
The melon seed crystal was furious, and stabbed the outer barrier even more frantically.
And after the sprouts entered the hole between the eyebrows, the man's body became abnormal again. The hole between his eyebrows began to shrink, and slowly the hole disappeared, and his forehead became smooth and flat again.
The melon seed crystal burst into flames, and it seemed to explode itself again to take revenge on this body.
"Crack." The man opened his eyes again, and this time he sat up.
Seeing the crazy appearance of the melon seed crystal, the man stretched out his intact left hand.
The melon seed crystal bumped into the man's left hand, huh? The barrier is gone. It is happy and wants to go back to the brow.
But the man grabbed it.
The melon seed crystal wanted to rush out of the man's palm, but found itself restrained... No, it seemed that this left hand seemed to be good, and the breath here made it feel very comfortable.
The man spreads his palms.
The melon seed crystal hesitated for a moment, then plunged into the palm of the man's left hand.
The man looked at his left hand, shook it back and forth a few times and then left it alone.
He tried to stand up, finally stabilized after several attempts, then he corrected his direction and continued to move towards the original goal.
After walking for another quarter of an hour, the man stopped.
Here is an endless snowfield, but the man knows that here, his feet are his goal.
He knelt down on one knee, and began to stagger and quickly dig the snow with one hand and one tree hand.
Beneath the deep snow is the frozen ground.
The man was digging hard at the frozen soil. He seemed to have forgotten his abilities. Fortunately, his arms were quite powerful, especially the one made of tree branches. It didn't take too much effort to get into the ground.
After loosening the frozen soil about two feet thick on the surface, the soil below is easier to dig.
Most of the man's body was stuck in the hole, and he was still digging.
The pit got deeper and deeper, and the man jumped right into it.
Half an hour later, the man's movements suddenly stopped, and he touched it!
Then he sped up his movements again, but this time instead of digging, he carefully removed all the dirt on the thing, and then carried the thing out.
It was a large package made of animal skins.
The man opened the package and saw the charred corpse inside. He sat in the pit holding the charred corpse for a long time, looking at the charred corpse as if he saw everything.
I found you, and this time I will never be separated from you again.
