At this time, other howls suddenly made them surprised and happy. If there are living things, there must be plants. Otherwise, how can living things survive
The howling sound came after a while, and they looked for it. Behind a mountain of hot stones, there was a simple hut made of stones.
The two looked at each other. Building a house is a human skill. Although animals are also smart, they will never spend a lot of energy and time to build such a stone hut. In front of the house, there is a square table made of stone. There is a stone-cut tea bowl on the table.
The howl just now seemed to come from this stone hut. Is the person living inside it a human or an animal
While the two were in a daze, another howl came from the stone hut. The sound was very low, but very loud. It can be seen that the person who howled this sound must have a strong internal energy.
The two of them did not hesitate anymore and quickly came to the outside of the stone hut. They did not go in, but stood outside the house. Zhu Yan said loudly: "I and the other two were passing by here and came to ask for a bowl of water. I don't know if it is convenient or not." !”
There was no movement, no howling, and no response. The world seemed to have become quiet again, so quiet that it seemed that the only sound was the heartbeats of the two of them.
Xia Yuanqiu said: "We don't have any ill intentions. We are really just passing through here. If we disturb you, please forgive me!"
I don't know how long it took, but a cold voice finally came from inside: "I don't remember how long it has been since I heard someone's voice. I almost forgot how to speak!"
Is it human? But maybe not, most mythical beasts can also speak human words!
"Senior, can you come out and meet me?" Zhu Yan shook his head at Xia Yuanqiu and signaled her not to go in. Whether it was a human or an animal, it was always safer to meet outside than inside.
"I do want to go out, but my old injury has recurred these days and I can't even get off the ground. How can I go out to see you? Don't worry, my old skull has a vicious heart, but I no longer have the power to be vicious."
Xia Yuanqiu held the Soul Locking Chain in his hand, and Zhu Yan also pulled out the Fish Tail Divine Sword. The two looked at each other, and Zhu Yan took the lead and walked in front, holding his sword horizontally in front of him, staring at the dark stone house with vigilant eyes. within.
The stone house has no windows, only a few holes cut into the stone wall for lighting. The house is very narrow, and there is nothing else except a stone bed.
On the stone bed, an old man in ragged clothes was lying upright, his gleaming eyes looking at the two of them up and down.
Xia Yuanqiu looked at the skinny old man in front of him and frowned: "Why does senior live here alone?"
The old man looked at Xia Yuanqiu's face, his eyes flashing with excitement. He seemed to have used a lot of effort to suppress his excitement. He stared at Xia Yuanqiu and asked, "What's your name? Why are you here?" Here? How did you find this place?"
Xia Yuanqiu didn't know why he was so excited, and replied: "My name is Xia Yuanqiu. I found this place because I needed Red Flame Grass to save people's lives. We really just came to you by chance, and we didn't mean to disturb you."
There was a trace of disappointment on the old man's face, but soon the disappointment disappeared, and he asked again: "Have you heard of Mr. Yun Xiang?"
Xia Yuanqiu shook his head: "I've never heard of it. Who is she?"
The old man looked disappointed again and sighed: "It seems that I have overthought it. There is such a big age difference between you and her. How could it be that--oh--that's all, let's go!"
