Dao Fruit

Night falls.

In the dense forest tribe, with a few crackling sounds, a pile of dead bamboos burned.

"Fire! Fire! Fire!"

Seeing this scene, the men and women cheered, smiled and danced.

The old man next to the fire looked ecstatic. He looked at the stones, powder and mugwort in his hands, and his heart was filled with excitement. He did not expect that the combination of these three seemingly simple things could actually make fire!

Originally, because of the night, some tribesmen had gone into their houses to sleep, but now when they saw the fire rising outside, they all rushed out and danced around the fire.

The structure of this tribe's houses is quite simple. They first dig a pit, then set up pillars, use wood to form a wall along the pit, and then fix it with grass and mud. Finally, the pillars and walls are covered with thatch to make a roof.

The core of the house is a small hole dug in the wall of the pit, which is used to store fire, which can be used for heating, lighting, and cooking.

However, in the past, if you wanted to obtain fire, you would either rely on lightning on a rainy day or rely on forest fires. In order to obtain fire and protect it, tribes suffered many casualties every year.

But now, because of a new "principle" passed down by the gods, fire has been created so easily!

The old man's eyes gradually became moist as he looked at the laughing crowd.

With fire, there is hope!

Pass the fire from generation to generation!

On the other side, on top of the stone pillar in the center of the tribe.

Looking at the noisy crowd below, Yin Xiao'e shook her head: "What is your purpose for doing this? The most urgent task now is to find clues about the ancient gods' remains. The edge of this forest cannot be seen. Within a few hundred miles, there are vague These unusual auras are not easy to come by. Besides, by this time, the news of the opening of the ruins should have reached the ears of those who are interested, so we must hurry up!"

"It's useless to be anxious when looking for relics. You have to find the right target." Qiu Yan glanced at Yin Xiao'e. Through these days of contact, he could see that although this woman was of high quality, she had a very impatient temper. “I didn’t do this out of nowhere, but with my own considerations.”

He said, raising his hand and pointing to the sky.

In the night sky, there were nine fireballs hanging, which were the sun, but the sun was no longer hot at this time. What was shining down was not the scorching sunlight, but the soft moonlight.

"The sun and the moon are one, which is definitely unusual. Have you thought about the mystery inside?"

Qiu Yan said and pointed at himself and Yin Xiao'e.

"After you and I came here, the divine body solidified and turned into flesh and blood. After falling down, it was difficult to fly again, as if it deliberately prevented me from getting close to the sun."

"What do you mean?" After hearing this, Yin Xiao'e also had an idea. According to her idea, since she has entered the ruins, she should conduct more explorations and find clues. But now that Qiu Yan's meaning is not the intention, of.

"When you don't know much about the situation, you might as well calm down, go with the flow, let things develop, and wait and see." Qiu Yan said this, laughed, and pointed down, "That tribe elder The word 'reason' has been mentioned many times. This word inherently contains the meaning of law and rules. The purpose of sages writing books is to summarize the rules of heaven, earth and the world on paper, and explain them in a eloquent way so that all living beings can understand them. , this is the truth, if you find the key point, you can clear the fog and make the result clear. "

After hearing these words, Yin Xiao'e fell silent. After a while, she finally said: "Every one of you who are studying is eloquent." At the end, she stopped talking, as if she was recalling something, and stopped talking. urge.

"Fire! Fire! Fire!"

At this time, many tribesmen under the stone pillar gathered around again, circling the pillar and shouting.

As the sound gradually became louder, a strange force enveloped the world. Qiu Yan was stunned for a moment, as if he felt something. However, when he examined it carefully, the feeling disappeared again.

"What's going on?"

He frowned and was about to explore again when a loud noise suddenly came from the sky!

Boom!

Heaven and earth roar!

Qiu Yan and Yin Xiao'e were shocked. They followed the sound and immediately saw the horizon. The moonlight was distorted, the clouds were moving, and two figures emerged from it!

Although the distance was extremely far, the two gods focused their eyes and clearly captured the outlines of the people who appeared. They were two men.

A man is quite old, has a long beard, wears colorful clothes, and has many colorful pendants hanging on his body, but the most eye-catching thing is the string of heads on this man's neck!

Skulls in a chain!

The other person is a young man, covered in black, with a flowing cloak, and a childish face, but it gives people a sense of vicissitudes and looks nondescript.

After Yin Xiao'e saw it, she said: "These are the two gods of the Five Marshes. The poisonous insects of the legal domain with skull necklaces are at the fifth level of the gods. The young man is called the Ancestor of Black Marsh and is at the fourth level of the gods. "

When she was talking, she did not mention the names of the two gods, but only mentioned the realms and nicknames. This was because the names of the gods were mysterious, and mentioning them rashly when she did not know the details might lead to unpredictable changes.

Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes: "It seems that the news of the opening of the ruins has spread. The arrival of these two people is just the beginning..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sky wind surged, and he saw the ancestor of Black Marsh and the old man in Caiyi suddenly fell and smashed into the dense forest!

boom!

A dull sound rolled in, and the ground shook.

When Qiu Yan saw it, a bright light flashed in his eyes: "They are just like you and me. Once they arrived here, they were imprisoned in their divine bodies and lost the power to fly."

The arrival of the two Five Swamp Gods did not cause much change. In the next two days, the tribe where Qiu Yan lived had a normal routine, and under his guidance, it slowly changed.

On the other hand, Qiu Yan also learned the name of this tribe -

Lianxi Clan.

However, this peace did not last long before it was broken by several uninvited guests.

The team that broke the peace was a team of ten people, each of whom was mighty and majestic, but with dull expressions. After they encountered the hunting team of Lianxi Clan, they had a conflict. Then many people from Lianxi Clan came to support them. After a fierce battle, the other side quickly left after leaving two corpses.

But after a few hours, a dark cloud enveloped them, accompanied by nearly a hundred strong men, who waved wooden sticks and bone sticks and surrounded the entire Lianxi Clan tribe.

"There is a black hand behind this group of people."

As his perception expanded, Qiu Yan noticed the weirdness of this group of people.

Their aura was very strange and lifeless. Everyone had a dull face, but they had the cultivation of the peak of the foundation-building realm, which was much stronger than the tribesmen of the Lianxi clan.

"It seems that you and I are being targeted." Yin Xiao'e also saw the clue.

Qiu Yan nodded, and then said: "But this may not be a bad thing."

At the moment when his voice fell, more than a hundred men surrounding the tribe were shocked, and black smoke seeped out of their eyes, ears, mouths and noses.

The black smoke rose and condensed into a skull in the air. The upper and lower jaws of the skull collided and uttered harsh words: "After so many years, someone finally came again. I waited so hard. If you two know what's good for you, just follow me back honestly..."

Yin Xiao'e raised her eyebrows and was about to speak, but Qiu Yan got the upper hand.

"Oh? Did you run into a robber?" Qiu Yan actually smiled. "From what you said, it seems that you have been here for a long time, so you must know this world very well. It's just right to capture him and let him be my guide!"
