"Why are you laughing?" Ming Yue looked at Wu Dongfang in confusion.
Wu Dongfang smiled and said nothing. At this time, Fantong had already chased the prince and ran out of the east courtyard wing.
"What is the prince shouting?" Ming Yue walked quickly to the door.
The door was ajar. Ming Yue opened the door and found the prince running from the east courtyard in a panic, shouting as he ran, "Wu Dongfang, the rice bucket is crazy and wants to bite me to death!"
"It's midnight, why are you scaring it?" Ming Yue looked back at Wu Dongfang. She naturally knew why Fan Tong was chasing the prince.
Before Wu Dongfang could answer, the prince had already jumped in, shook his body and transformed into a human form, stretched out his hand to pull Ming Yue away, "Be careful, don't let it bite you."
At this time, Fantong had already run to the door of the room. Wu Dongfang divined it to stop chasing and sat down at the steps in front of the room.
When the prince saw that Fan Tong didn't rush in, he stretched his head and looked outside. He saw Fan Tong sitting down from the steps. He walked to the door in confusion and tilted his head to look at it.
Wu Dongfang, the divine disciple, grinned at the prince and jumped back in fright, "Oh my god, I'm so crazy!"
"What are you crazy about? It's just joking with you." Wu Dongfang got out of bed with his clothes on, walked to the door and asked the rice pail, "Are you joking with the prince?"
An ordinary person would not be able to understand the meaning of joking, but Wu Dongfang has a spiritual connection with it, so it can understand what Wu Dongfang means. However, this guy did not nod, but shook his head.
"Look, I'm telling you there's something wrong with it." The prince pointed at the rice pail and shouted loudly.
"I ask you again, are you joking with the prince?" Wu Dongfang asked. Rice Tong is an honest "person". It shook its head because it was not joking with the prince, but served him. Wu Dongfang secretly ordered Fan Tong to nod, and Fan Tong naturally nodded repeatedly.
"I still feel like something's not right about it." The prince tilted his head and looked at the rice pail.
"You can use mind reading to see what it is thinking." Wu Dongfang said.
"I don't know what this beast is thinking. Its divine palace is different from other beasts." The prince curled his lips and said.
Wu Dongfang was relieved and waved his hand towards the rice pail, "Okay, it's getting late, go back to sleep, what are you fooling around about."
Rice Tong completed the task, he was very excited and happy, and ran back to the mountain with satisfaction.
The prince followed him out and watched the rice bucket leave with a puzzled look on his face.
"Your Highness, I'm playing tricks with you. Go back to your room and sleep quickly." Ming Yue said to the Prince.
The prince looked back at Ming Yue, then looked away after a few seconds and yawned, "Okay, I'll go back, and you guys should go to bed early."
When the prince walked away, Mingyue closed the door and began to complain that Wu Dongfang had gone too far with his joke. Wu Dongfang didn't take it seriously and laughed it off.
Wu Dongfang was too sleepy to get up on time in the morning. At around eight o'clock in the morning, Ming Yue woke him up and said, "Get up quickly, I have something for you to deal with."
"What?" Wu Dongfang did not open his eyes.
"Something happened in the village where we used to live." Ming Yue said.
When Wu Dongfang heard that he was no longer sleepy, he turned over and sat up, "What happened?"
"There was a flood there last night." Ming Yue said.
"It's impossible. The terrain there is higher than the valley to the east. Even if it rains heavily, it won't be flooded." Wu Dongfang said.
"Look." Ming Yue handed over a small wooden board. This wooden board should have been sent by the tribe using a messenger bird. Because the wooden board was very small, it could not record much content. It only reported that the village was flooded and how it happened. , it was not said to what extent it was flooded, or whether there were any casualties.
"Forget it, I'd better take a look for myself." Wu Dongfang put down the board and stood up to dress.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Ming Yue asked.
"No, I'll go with the prince, and you stay here to deal with other things." Wu Dongfang said casually.
After being properly dressed, Wu Dongfang went out and called the prince, and the two left the capital of the Jin tribe and headed west to the village where the incident occurred.
He had settled Mingwan's family in the capital of the Jin tribe and no longer lived in the village, but he had a deep affection for that village. Firstly, he and Mingyue met there, and secondly, he was from there. Coming to this era, it was equivalent to half of his birthplace.
Wu Dongfang discovered that the hilltop to the east of the village was full of people from a hundred miles away. Judging from the number of people, all the residents of the village were there and not killed.
No matter how close he was, he saw that the river in the valley to the east had surged, and the water level had almost reached the mountainside area where everyone was standing. This valley flows from northwest to southeast. There is a low-lying location northeast of the village, where the river flows from It flows into the woods where the village is located.
He had lived here for a short time and knew the direction of the river. Judging from the location of the village and the width of the river, the village would not be flooded even if it rained continuously for a month. There have been no heavy rains in the Jin tribe in recent times, so the water level in the river should not be that high.
With doubts in his mind, Wu Dongfang raised his eyes and looked to the southeast, only to see a huge dam appearing in the valley dozens of miles downstream. The water level upstream of the dam was very high, and the downstream flow had already stopped.
After confirming that there were no casualties in the village, Wu Dongfang did not continue westward, but changed his route to the south and came to the river dam dozens of miles away. This dam was entirely made of huge bluestones, and each piece of bluestone had a room. Big and small, the dam is tens of meters high and hundreds of meters from east to west. The walls are extremely smooth and almost watertight.
"Who will build a dam here to block the water?" Wu Dongfang frowned and looked at the dam. Even in modern times, it would take months or even years to complete such a large project. There is no large machinery now, and it is absolutely impossible to do it with manpower alone. Such a big project was completed overnight.
"Look, there is smoke." The prince raised his hand and pointed to the southeast. There was a large yellow area two hundred miles away in the southeast. At this time, the forest coverage rate was very high. There were green trees everywhere in the mountains. The ** domain looks very eye-catching among the green.
"There used to be fierce battles there." Wu Dongfang said that the yellow area was the exposed soil after the plants were damaged. There might have been a fire there before, but the fire had been extinguished by this time.
"It seems like someone is there. Let's go and have a look." The prince said.
Wu Dongfang nodded and used Earth Escape to go quickly. The prince arrived at the same time as him.
"Holy Witch, you are here too." A man's voice came from not far away.
Wu Dongfang turned around when he heard the sound, and saw that the person speaking was the male Celestial Master of the Fire Clan. Apart from Fire Saint Xintong, this guy was the only remaining Celestial Master of the Fire Clan.
"What's going on?" Wu Dongfang looked around. This area was originally a deep water area of the river. According to the moss remaining on the stone wall, it can be roughly judged that the water depth here was at least thirty meters, but now both sides The cliffs have been severely damaged. Centered here, the area within a radius of fifty miles has been severely damaged, as if it had just experienced a serious air raid.
"Back to the Holy Witch, I just arrived not long ago. The clansmen heard a loud noise last night and saw the light of fire. When they got up in the morning, they found that the river had stopped flowing." The male Celestial Master said.
"What's your name?" Wu Dongfang asked casually.
"My name is Yu." Xin Yu reported his name.
"What do they know?" Wu Dongfang pointed to the group of Fire Tribe people in the distance. These people may be villagers living nearby and volunteer firefighters responsible for putting out fires. They are all disgraced.
"This water area is very dangerous. There used to be a demon dragon that often appeared nearby, and the villagers did not dare to approach here. However, the demon dragon has been killed by the Holy Witch in the past few years," Xin Yu said.
Wu Dongfang nodded. The demon dragon Xin Yu mentioned was the Minotaur he saw back then. The Minotaur's lair is in the north. The deeper the path, the larger the alien territory. This area is undoubtedly the Minotaur. activity area.
"This is the realm of the Fire Tribe. You are familiar with the situation here. Apart from the demon dragon, what else is special about this place?" Wu Dongfang asked. Blocking the river and cutting off the downstream flow. Such a big move will definitely not be without purpose.
"What are you referring to?" Xin Yu asked puzzledly.
"Forget it, I'll look around." Wu Dongfang turned around and walked towards the prince in the distance. He suspected that this was a prison where Yan Emperor's generals were sealed, but the seal was made by Huang Emperor's side, so naturally he would not tell Yan Emperor's descendants. people.
Seeing Wu Dongfang approaching, the prince pointed at a bluestone the size of a millstone, "Look."
Wu Dongfang looked at the bluestone as the prince pointed and saw a huge palm print printed on the bluestone, which was half the size of the bluestone and embedded three-thirds deep.
"It's them." Wu Dongfang said, such a large palm print could never belong to a human being.
"Like." The prince nodded.
"Who was sealed here previously?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"I didn't know." The prince turned and walked away.
Wu Dongfang was also looking for clues nearby. Although the battlefield was extremely messy, as long as you were careful, you could still find many clues. Judging from the traces left everywhere, the weapons used by both parties in the previous fight included at least knives, swords, spears, bows and two kinds of weapons. There are two types of knives among the above blunt weapons, one is smaller and the other is larger. The marks left by the smaller knife are very similar to the Minghong knife.
Wu Dongfang also found a small amount of blood stains on the stone wall of the river. The blood stains were in the shape of dots around a hole. The hole was more than ten meters high from the ground and had a flat shape. He was not unfamiliar with holes of this shape. This is what the arrow head left.
Apart from this bloodstain, there were no other bloodstains in the field, nor were there corpses or scraps of meat. This situation indicated that there was probably only one flesh-and-blood body involved in the fight, and this flesh-and-blood body should be Fei Lu controlled by the Ghost King. Only Fei Lu could use Deadwood to heal the wounds and survive when his body was pierced. If it had been anyone else, they would have been lying dead on the spot.
"What are you doing?" The prince looked up.
Wu Dongfang did not answer and continued to slowly cut into the stone wall.
"Let's go, go back." The prince urged.
"Wait a minute." Wu Dongfang said casually. He was digging along the hole left by the arrow. So far, he had dug more than fifty centimeters in and still didn't see the arrow.
I penetrated more than two meters and saw the end of the hole, but no arrow was found.
One arrow pierced the person, and without losing its momentum, it penetrated two meters into the stone wall before stopping. This is not something ordinary people and ordinary bows and arrows can do. Most people do not have such great strength. If ordinary bows and arrows carry such great strength, they will not touch the stone wall. It will shatter immediately afterwards.
The person who used the arrow is undoubtedly one of the Yellow Emperor's old tribes. If he turns against the gods in the future, this person will definitely be a powerful enemy...
