My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Lao Bao's arm trembled slightly, his right hand was twisted, and the blood under his skin was as ferocious as a python.

Just when Getu was impatient, he heard Lao Bao scream, and the flesh and blood on his right hand suddenly tore apart, and a tumor appeared.

The tumor continued to struggle and turned into a flesh-colored stone tablet, and on top of the stone tablet was the face of an old man.

"It is precisely because I am an elder that I don't know how to get down the mountain."

The old man with the stone tablet spoke slowly.

"According to the rules of the village, once an elder is selected, he cannot go down the mountain for the rest of his life. The roads in the village are all opened for the purpose of transporting stone tablets.

Logically speaking, every road is not dangerous, and you can choose any one to enter. "

Lao Bao grimaced in pain, and before the old man could speak, he suddenly pressed down on the stone tablet and pressed down hard.

I saw the old man slowly crawling back into his bones.

Getu looked on stunned, almost frightened.

This fierce ghost had been hiding on Lao Bao for a long time. He thought it was nothing to fear, after all, he didn't see Lao Bao struggling.

It was only then that he realized something was wrong.

This guy's strength turned out to be even more terrifying than imagined.

Although Lao Bao's threats were of no other use, they at least let Elder Shibi know his determination.

During the period of hiding in Lao Bao, Elder Shibi discovered that Lao Bao was not very talented and had no determination to practice Taoism, but there was one thing that was strange.

Whenever he tried to explore the memory of Zhang Hao, Lao Bao's resistance was particularly fierce.

Gradually, the elder Shibei discovered a characteristic.

As long as it involves Zhang Hao, Lao Bao has no room for negotiation.

How could there be such a weird person in this world?
When ordinary people face threats from others, they either save their own lives, or they kowtow and beg for mercy, admit their mistakes, and surrender completely.

However, Lao Bao gave him insight.

This guy doesn't care about his own life. In his heart, Zhang Hao's status is even more important than his own life.

Although the road up the mountain was full of twists and turns, under the guidance of the elder Shibei, Lao Bao and the other two were able to escape without any danger.

And just as Lao Bao and the two entered the mountain, the shadow on the other side of the mountain road seemed to be aware of it and looked down the mountain.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong asked in hindsight.

After hearing this, Shadow shook his head silently, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm worrying too much."

Shadow said calmly.

Just now, he suddenly noticed that Zhang Hao's breath was fluctuating.

He has been observing Zhang Hao since he walked out of the maze.

Zhang Hao's talent may not be that strong, but his temperament is excellent.

In the eyes of the shadows, temperament is far more important than talent.

No matter how talented you are, how many people can be better than you?
Shadow seldom brags about himself in front of others, but he knows it very well.

He was chosen as the successor by both General Qin and Zhao Zaitong at the same time because his talent was rare in the world.

But even so, in the eyes of the two masters, he could not become a great person.

Otherwise, why did the two masters choose him as the sacrifice for the formation?
The core of the formation is naturally important, but only for the formation.

And in the plan of the two masters, there is obviously another more important thing.

Protect the royal bloodline and ensure their survival.

This task is even more critical than guarding the formation, but the two masters did not choose themselves to be this person.

Between the two masters, there should be more than just one apprentice.

In their hearts, there is someone more suitable for inheritance than themselves.

His talent is definitely rare in the world, but his temperament is not stable enough.

Not to mention the senior brother who exists somewhere, even Zhang Hao is stronger than him.

Zhang Hao is always very calm when facing major events and does not easily fluctuate.

It is precisely because of this that Shadow is filled with doubts.

"Don't rest, it's time for us to set off."

The shadow said coldly, staring downward with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

There seems to be no problem in the village at the foot of the mountain, but the absence of a problem is a problem.

You know, it is not easy for any village to gain a foothold in Hidden Dragon Thirty-Six Villages.

Back then, the two masters built a city in order to collect the resources of the nine-day and ten-earth isolation formation.

This majestic city can accommodate millions of people.

Today, hundreds and nearly a thousand years later, this city has been reduced to ashes, with no trace left.

Shadow never mentioned this matter to Zhang Hao, but he knew it well.

The scope of influence of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Isolation Formation is not only Hidden Dragon Mountain and thirty-six villages, but also the entire city.

When the formation became a desert, the people living in it turned into wild beasts trapped here.

Over hundreds of years, these people formed large and small villages and competed with each other for resources. In the end, only these thirty-six villages remained.

In other words, Thirty-Six Villages did not exist from the beginning, but evolved over hundreds of years from the struggle of millions of trapped human beings.

Therefore, even if the shadow escaped from the range of the formation, it still did not dare to be careless.

Because he knows the danger never leaves.

Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong didn't know why, so they cautiously followed the shadow.

This boss is different from Zhang Hao.

Although Zhang Hao is very principled in his work, he at least still has some human touch.

As for the big boss in front of him, his body was always shrouded in shadow. Even if he occasionally looked at them, his eyes were filled with a cold air.

In the eyes of this big boss, they did not see any sense of companionship, only a thick cold light.

"Boss, is there a problem in the village?"

Zhang Jichen had nothing to say.

Shadow observed the trend of the ground veins in Stone Tablet Village and said something perfunctory.

"No matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave three meters away from me, otherwise you will be dragged into the maze, and I will not save you."

The situation in Stone Tablet Village was more complicated than he thought.

He was far away just now, but he felt that the atmosphere here was a bit strange.

But when he got closer to this place, he realized that the murderous aura here was stronger than he imagined.

It’s just a village, why is there such a murderous aura?
In Shadow's heart, he was puzzled.

He sent three breaths to Zhang Hao, but Zhang Hao never responded.

At this moment, Shadow was suddenly startled.

From the direction of the back village of Shibei Village, there were bursts of rustling sounds.

Besides myself, Zhang Jichen and others, who else is here on the ancient road in the barren mountains?
Could it be that there are still villagers alive in Shibei Village?

Shadow was shocked and immediately urged the two of them to step forward.

Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong hurriedly followed, not daring to go more than three meters away from the shadow.

Shibei Village is not big. Walk straight ahead along the entrance of the village, and within a short time you have reached the bamboo forest behind the village.

However, when the shadow looked around, he found that the place was empty. Could it be that he was hallucinating?
Shadow was shocked.

"Boss, there are footprints here."

At this moment, Zhang Jichen's exclamation came from beside him.

Shadow hurriedly looked back and saw Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong standing on the edge. At their feet, there was a unique set of footprints.

"Are you sure you didn't step on this yourself?"

Shadow asked.

Both Zhang Jichen and Zhang Jichen exude unreliability. How can they convince him?
"Boss, even if you don't believe us, you should come and take a look first."

Zhang Jichen said helplessly.

The shadow had a problem with the two of them, how could they not see it?
However, no matter how strong the opinion of Shadow is, he cannot tell lies with his eyes open.

Zhang Jichen and the other two wore flat cloth shoes with striped soles, but these two footprints had wavy patterns and complex footprints. At first glance, they looked like more advanced shoes.

The most important thing is that the three of them walked all the way here, just in the opposite direction to the footprints of these two pairs of shoes.

"I didn't hear any hallucinations. Someone did enter the village just now."

Shadow murmured to himself, unable to help but look back at the village.

They had just walked through the village, and Shibei Village was not a big village.

If the other party also entered the village, how could he not have met him?

Zhang Hao is missing.

Two people who entered the village at the same time as them also disappeared.

If there was something strange in this village, why didn't the three of them disappear?

"Boss, is there a problem?"

Zhang Jichen and the two were as confused as ants who had lost their way.

Although they were recognized by Zhang Hao and allowed to follow him, they were just ordinary people before.

It was difficult for the two of them to save their lives, so how could they have the ability to care about other things.

The shadow did not respond to the two people's questions, but stared at the two for a moment, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He originally disagreed with Zhang Hao's decision.

Letting two ordinary people follow them along the way is of no use, but a waste of energy to take care of them.

But at this time, he suddenly discovered the usefulness of these two people.

Precisely because Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong are ordinary people, they can help them even more.

Since Zhang Hao has disappeared and the two people who entered the village have also disappeared, it has been confirmed that there is something strange in the village.

The problem now is... how to trigger the village's mechanism.

His body is the body of the Evil Emperor, and his soul is the terrifying soul that has absorbed the energy of the earth veins for thousands of years in the maze.

In terms of cultivation alone, Shadow is even stronger than Zhang Hao.

It's just that because of the rotation of time and space and the tremendous changes in the world, this era has completely changed. He is completely unable to adapt to this society, so he appears to be very weak in front of Zhang Hao.

Shadow suspected that he was unable to break the village's ban, but because he was too strong.

His own strength cannot be hidden, but Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong can control it.

Before the two of them could react, they only felt an extra layer of coldness on their bodies.

The next moment, a strong wind suddenly blew, the bamboo forest shook violently, and a hurricane lifted Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong, and they fell violently into the stone monument of the village.

In the forest of stone tablets, streaks of mist suddenly appeared.

At the same time, an old man's figure seemed to appear in the mist.

"You two little friends, are you here to visit the village?"

The old man said with a smile, and there seemed to be a strange red light in his hand.

Red light surrounded the two figures. Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong suddenly became stiff, like puppets, following the old man into the depths of the stone monument.

When Zhang Jichen and Wang Jiansong disappeared, the old man suddenly turned around and took a deep look at the shadows in the bamboo forest outside the village through the thick fog and countless stone tablets.

The shadow stood in the bamboo forest, staring coldly at the old man in the mist, with a sneer flashing at the corner of his mouth.

As he thought, the strange guy in this village was a smart guy.

"Since you don't invite me in, I'll break in by myself."

Shadow said softly, pressing his palm violently on a bamboo.

The energy of the earth's veins mixed with the resentment of countless ghosts instantly pulled the bamboo up from the ground. Then with a gentle wave of the shadow, a bamboo pole was instantly refined into a long knife.

The shadow held a long knife in his hand, with a faint smile on his lips, and slowly walked into the Stone Tablet Village.

The moment Shadow stepped into the village, the stone monuments on both sides of the village cracked and turned into countless rubbles rushing toward Shadow.

The shadow was not afraid in the face of danger, and the long knife in his hand was covered with airtight. After countless gravel fell to the ground, it turned into even smaller gravel.

At that moment, stones all over the sky were like sharp bullets, constantly rushing towards the shadows.

During this period, wounds were left on the shadow's body. However, although these wounds opened, no blood flowed out.

"You are not alive."

The old man's roar came from the stone tablet.

"Since you are also from the Hidden Dragon Mountain lineage, why do you come to interfere with me?"

The old man roared.

However, when the shadow heard this, his lips were tightly closed and he said nothing.

The black energy on his body continued to envelope and corrode, and problems gradually appeared in the stone tablet.

The constantly cracking stone tablet could never be restored. It turned into countless rubbles and debris and fell to the ground, unable to form a stone tablet anymore.

"Hand over my friends."

Only then did Shadow reveal his conditions.

In the mist, the old man looked struggling.

The person in front of him was filled with strong earth energy.

This aura was too powerful, reminding him of certain omens in his ancestral teachings.

"I don't intend to kill anyone, I just want to find a successor for myself!"

"There are no living people in the village. If these people can't pass on the inheritance, the inheritance of our Shibei Village will be cut off."

"Since your Excellency is from the Hidden Dragon Mountain lineage, please give me a chance out of consideration for being from the same lineage."

"I promise never to kill them. No matter whether they can pass the test or not, I will give them a way to survive."

The old man begged.

The shadow looked at the old man silently.

Although the old man was hiding in the mist, the shadow did not step forward to kill him.

He saw despair and heartbreak in the old man's eyes.

This is also a person who lives in a closed village, but the situation of this village is obviously unsustainable.

There is only the last living person left in Shibei Village, and the old man seems unable to leave the village.

"I only give you one day. After one day, if you still can't find someone to inherit, I will send you to reincarnation."

After the shadow finished speaking, he tapped his foot lightly and turned into a ray of light, reaching the top of the bamboo forest.

The energy of the earth's veins entrenched under his feet, accelerating the growth of the bamboo forest. The leaves of the bamboo forest gathered into a ball, as if turning into a futon, holding up the figure of the shadow. (End of chapter)
