The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 143
Tie Zhu's performance surprised me.It also stunned Ma Su next to him.

Ma Di conclusively said that Tie Zhu was a Xuanyuan dog, a precious breed among dogs, and the incarnation of a legendary beast.Just now it descended from heaven, so I also think it is the savior who came to save us.After all, the name of the beast is extraordinary, how can dozens of wild dogs rival it.

Unexpectedly, when the other party howled, Tie Zhu was so frightened that he ran away with his tail between his legs.

The problem of bullying the soft and fearing the hard is still the same.

In desperation, I chased after a few steps, and my shout was still effective. This guy ran around, and found that the way he was going was surrounded by groups and he couldn't get out at all.As a result, it ran back and leaned on my lap panting.

I patted Tie Zhu on the head: "Tie Zhu, although you failed to save us, but you were able to die willingly, it is not in vain for me to pick you up."

After such an episode, I also thought about it.Things are in such a situation, the situation is not easy to change.Zhou Zheng has clearly controlled the entire Yagu area, the mandrills, mountain dogs and poisonous insects on the ground here.These are not things we can resist.

The mountain dogs roared and rushed forward again, and the mandrills raised their heads like gorillas and thumped their chests violently, roaring loudly.

For a while, ghosts and wolves howled in the valley, and the sound shook the sky.My legs started to feel weak, facing this situation, it was pretty awesome not to pee in fear.

As a result, what I didn't expect was that, seeing that we were about to be buried in the belly of wolves, the situation changed subtly again.

First, Tie Zhu noticed the abnormality, and he started barking towards the side of the valley.

I looked over, but nothing happened.

Afterwards, the mountain dogs and mandrills that besieged us also started to stir up trouble.

I vaguely felt the ground tremble slightly.

Ma Di has great confidence in Tie Zhu: "Tie Zhu is born with a sense of spirituality and sensitive senses, so something must happen."

As soon as Ma Su finished speaking, he saw a cloud of thick black smoke suddenly rising from that direction.

Black smoke billowed in the air and quickly spread around.Immediately afterwards, the flames shot up into the sky, almost turning half of the sky red.A heat wave also swept over.

Those mandrills and mountain dogs were also beasts after all, and they were thrown into chaos when they were rushed by the hot air.After a brief hesitation, they scattered and fled.

This kind of scene is like facing a huge disaster, and the animals are scrambling to escape.

We all looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Ma Su looked in that direction and said, "Isn't that the direction of the Bird King Temple?"

The third uncle waved his hand: "Go, go and have a look."

We were about to brave the heat wave to go there when we felt the ground tremble violently, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked.Our feet are also a little unstable, and we are struggling to maintain our balance.

"Damn it. Is there an earthquake?" I cursed.

At this time, I saw a person running from the direction of the fire. The person was agile and quickly ran to us.

At first I thought Zhou Zheng was chasing him out, but when I got closer, I realized that he was wearing the same red robe as me, and he turned out to be an old man who hadn't shown up.

The old stall said he came in to look for the bones of the third uncle, and he never returned.In this way, Ma Su and Liang Yue and I ventured into Yagu to find out.

During the period when we were besieged by the sand wolf worms and entered the tree hole and the hole in the ground, the old stall also never showed up.I almost forgot that there are old stalls here.

The old stall head ran to the front, panting with exhaustion, his face was smoky like the bottom of a pot.

I was about to say something, but the old stall owner waved his hand: "Don't ask, get out of here first, that place is going to collapse."

Our feet were still shaking violently. We didn't dare to ask more questions when we saw the old stall's appearance, so we followed him and ran down a small path in Yagu.

The old stall was very familiar with the route, and led us to sprint all the way to a halfway up a mountain.

We turned our heads to see where the fire started.

It turned out to be the century-old dead tree, which was burned like a big wax.And the ground around the dead tree is constantly collapsing.

Less than 5 minutes after we reached the top of the mountain, the ground collapsed with a bang.A puff of smoke rose up.Thick smoke billowed from the collapsed place, and it was obvious that a fire had started below.It is estimated that all the poisonous insects should have died in it.

"Zhou Zheng is still inside..." Ma Di shouted anxiously.

Xing Mo frowned, and tried to persuade him: "This is called self-indulgence. Zhou Zheng spent a lot of time trying to discover the secrets here and get gentian sand at all costs. Now he is really company with dead bones and poisonous insects underground. Teacher, It's nothing to be ashamed of..."

I glanced at the old stall, and found that the old stall was not at all surprised by what happened below, and there was a little excitement in his expression, and his eyebrows were beaming.

I couldn't help asking: "Master Tan, did you do this?"

The old stall didn't answer my question, but suddenly he knelt down towards the land boundary, raised his hands to the sky, and wailed loudly twice.

"Master Tan, what's wrong with you? You're crying and laughing..."

The old stall still didn't care, and cried and howled for more than ten minutes, before slowing down, stood up slowly from the ground, and said: "My ancestors were from this Nanliu Village back then. Then At that time, people in the village were bewitched by Zou Baizu, the king of insects, and they did not believe in Qin Wuyu, the king of birds. Only my ancestors believed in him and left Nanliu Village before the landslide. They were all killed. Among them were many close relatives of our Tan family. Later, my ancestors resettled in the place where Nanliu Village is now. It was still a wilderness at that time."

I nodded: "So that's the case. So, you avenged your ancestors and the people in the village back then."

The old stall head smiled miserably: "The ancestors left the ancestral instructions to avenge the whole village. But the instigator is the insect king. How can we ordinary people fight against him? So we have been adhering to the ancestral instructions and guarding this cliff valley. It has been passed down to my generation. My ancestors have spirits, which allowed me to seize this opportunity. As a bone picker, I often go in and out of cliff valleys. I found that cave and knew that it was a place designed by the insect king. Evil land. I want to use the backbone of the whole village and those insects to revive myself. That Zhou Zheng is the descendant of Zou Baizu, the king of insects. Naturally, I will not let him go. Let alone let that evil land continue to exist. "

I asked again: "We just came here and found a figure, is that you?"

The old stall owner nodded: "It's me. I didn't dare to show up at that time, I was looking for opportunities."

I looked at the large piece of collapsed ground and asked, "But how did you collapse that place?"

Uncle San said, "It's that tree, that century-old dead tree. The whole cave, and the evil spirits inside, rely on this dead tree to maintain balance. This kind of balance is not only a balance of geomantic omen, but also a structural one." Balance. This is also what Qin Wuyu, the bird king, had in mind at the beginning. If the tree is destroyed, without the support of the roots, this balanced structure will be destroyed, and everything will cease to exist.”
