Versatile Mage: Xuanwu Pendant, invincible shield counterattack!

Chapter 121 The Lonely Totem Beast
With the support of the two guards, Lu Xia and Jiang Shaoxu entered the village smoothly.

"These villagers are all ordinary people, right?"

Walking on the path between the villages, looking at the various simple villagers around him, Lu Xia raised his eyebrows slightly curiously.

"Well, our situation is a bit complicated. Let's wait for the village chief to explain it to you."

Hearing Lu Xia's question, the younger guard scratched his head in embarrassment and said.

Lu Xia closed his mouth knowingly and said nothing more.

It's such a weird village. Even with Lu Xia's high level of magic cultivation, the people in these villages are completely unable to sense any fluctuations in magic.

And... although he had just intentionally released some of the auras of the totems in the Xuanwu Pendant, after his observation, other than the two guards, the other villagers had no reaction at all.

Normally speaking, if a small village located in a place like this is really protected by a totem, they must have worshiped it. How could they not even respond to the aura of the totem?
Silently all the way, the four of them passed through the village paths and finally arrived at a house on a hillside in the northernmost part of the village.

"Two wait a moment."

With that said, the older-looking guard walked to the door three steps ahead.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Village Chief, there are guests here."

The guard knocked hard on the door and shouted into the house.

After a while, the wooden door was slowly pushed open, and an old man with plain clothes and gray hair appeared in front of several people.

"A Dong, they are..."

The white-haired old man first glanced at Lu Xia and Jiang Shaoxu, and then looked at A Dong with confusion, which was the older guard Lu Xia and Jiang Shaoxu mentioned.

"Village chief, these two..."

A Dong paused, hesitated, and then put his head to the white-haired village chief's ear and began to whisper.

Lu Xia and Jiang Shaoxu were not in a hurry, so they stood there quietly waiting.

After a while, guard A Dong seemed to have finished explaining everything and retreated to the village chief.

"You two go back. As for the two of you, follow me in, the old man."

The white-haired old village chief glanced at Lu Xia, sighed, waved to the two guards, turned around and walked into the house.

Lu Xia and Jiang Shaoxu looked at each other and followed them without hesitation. When they walked into the door, they saw a flat courtyard.

"Let's talk inside."

Seeing the two people walking into the house, the old man smiled and opened the door to the inner room.

"Are you the totem guardian?"

As he spoke, the old man stepped into the house.

"um, yes."

Lu Xia nodded and walked into the dark room with Jiang Shaoxu.

"Haha, no one has found this place for a long time."

The old man smiled and turned on the light with a click.

The dark room suddenly became brighter.

Ancient wallpapers and maps appeared on the walls in all directions.

"all these are………"

Lu Xia's pupils suddenly shrank, and he swallowed, a little surprised.

Jiang Shaoxu next to him was not much better and was also shocked.

Unexpectedly, they actually found the right place. "Let's take a look. There hasn't been any news about totems here for a long time. You guys are lucky. I still have something when I meet the old man."

Looking at the two people, the old village chief smiled and said slowly.

"What's the meaning."

Lu Xia was stunned and looked at the old village chief.

Did something happen here...?

Hearing Lu Xia's question, the old villager sighed, walked slowly to the mural, and stroked it slowly with his hands.

"You must have come well prepared. The name of the guardian totem here is Biao."

Hearing this, Lu Xia nodded. Just as they had guessed, it was indeed the sub-totem beast of the white tiger, Biao.

"It's a pity that you came a step too late. There were no totem beasts here decades ago."

The old village chief sighed and shook his head with a somewhat lonely expression.

"No more? What do you mean?"

Jiang Shaoxu frowned and asked.

Lu Xia, on the other hand, was thoughtful.

"The people he had been protecting believed the rumors from outsiders, ostracized him, and expelled him."

The old village chief slowly sat on a stool nearby, his cloudy eyes full of sadness.

Sure enough.

Lu Xia understood clearly, but it seemed that the people here did not succeed. Biao should still be alive, and they still have a chance to save it.

The power of totem beasts is quite powerful. If those people can find something in these ancient places and get them to use it, it will be a disaster for mankind.

The best example is the totem black snake, which brings endless peace to Hangzhou, which is unmatched by other magicians.

After hearing the old village chief's words, Jiang Shaoxu was silent for a moment. She opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing.

"I know that Biao may not be the only totem beast still alive today, but people no longer need them to protect them, so they have expelled them."

"They went deep into the mountains in despair and became full of wild beast habits. Some died in the changes of history and were completely extinct. Some fell asleep in a corner and would never wake up for anything.

"Today's totem beasts have completely become a thing of the past. They are as quiet as stone, watching everything change until the day they die."

As he said that, the old village chief looked at Lu Xia with penetrating eyes, as if he saw something about Lu Xia.

"They didn't make it, did they?"

Lu Xia wanted to confirm.

"Biao didn't want to hurt humans even in the end. He ran away and fled into the mountains, unable to escape from the world."

"It has been nearly a hundred years ago, and not many people remember him now. Old man, I am also very lucky. My parents are Biao sincere supporters. They told me and left this message. The history of the house.”

As he spoke, the old village chief looked around at the murals hanging on the walls.

The murals are very comprehensive. Except for a map, they are all about Biao's deeds.

On the murals, people worship Biao, support him and regard him as a god.

Biao lived up to expectations and diligently guarded his people for thousands of years.

But no one expected that the people he had protected for thousands of years would betray him in the end...

"Let's take a look and take whatever you need. According to some previous rumors, Biao is still here, but because of people's expulsion, he lived in the mountains full of demons, silently annotating our villages."
