Listening to Old Man Wu’s remarks, Li Xunyi understood what was going on.
It turns out that although they are now located near the central part of the New World, because of some medicinal materials and furs, caravans from Daqi often come here to purchase goods and take them back for sale.
It is said to be a caravan, but it is actually a smuggling team. There are many such smuggling teams, including natives and Daqi people. Many animal bones, fur, medicinal materials, mines, and various precious goods such as gold and jewelry were smuggled to the colonies in this way, and then transported to the Central Plains by sea.
It can be said that this is a long and wide trade route that flows countless interests.
The caravan where Old Man Wu is located is one of the smuggling teams on the front line. They have also visited this area in the past few years. There are five or six villages nearby. They have also conducted several transactions, usually from various tools, wine, and weapons brought by the colonies to exchange for medicinal materials, furs, animals, etc.
However, when they arrived again this time, they found that there had been a huge change in the village, that is, the villagers had great hostility towards them, and even tied them up and imprisoned them, and they would kill and sacrifice today.
Li Xun walked to the first headless native corpse, looked at the native man's head that rolled on the ground and still had animal bones, and asked, "Is this the wizard of this tribe?"
"Yes." Old Man Wu nodded quickly: "This tribe is called the Gesang tribe, and its relationship is a bit close to the Xiyin people, but it is more primitive and wild. The wizard is the largest person in their tribe.
But although they were primitive in the past, they were not very hostile to us. This time they didn’t know why they wanted to kill us to sacrifice to the gods.”
Li Xunyi didn't say anything. He looked at the beast bones on the other party and felt an indescribable ferociousness.
A moment later, Zuo Zhicheng, Qingyueqiu and other four people also came to the village. Shen Anan looked at the corpses all over the ground in surprise and said with a strange expression: "Li Xunyi. I didn't expect that you really took action and killed so many in one breath."
"A group of bloodthirsty beasts, kill them if they are killed." A cold light flashed in Li Xunyi's eyes, and he thrust his mouth at Lao Wu and others, saying, "This is the thing..."
Next he explained the matter to Zuo Zhicheng and others. Although they were not a murderer, no one in their hands had a few lives and had no objection to what Li Xunyi did.
But Zuo Zhicheng frowned, looking at the old and young people who were still kneeling on the ground, looking terrified, and asked, "Whoever will communicate with them? We have some things to ask."
"I...I can." Behind Old Man Wu, a tall and thin man stood up, looked at Zuo Zhicheng carefully and lowered his head.
Old Man Wu introduced: "Several adults, this is my nephew. He will say a few local words about these people, but these local people are stupid and stupid and don't know much. They may not know what you ask."
"It's okay." Zuo Zhicheng looked cold and looked at the two natives and said, "Tell them both. We have to ask them some things. If we can answer, it will be fine. If we can't answer, we will die."
The tall and thin man started talking to the two natives when he heard this. The two natives were excited after hearing this, nodded constantly and bowed.
Zuo Zhicheng asked: "Ask them, do you know there is a place called Guichui Valley nearby. There is a stone forest inside. When the wind blows, there will be a sound of ghosts screaming."
The tall and thin man said a few words. The young native man was confused for a year, but the old native man changed his expression. He immediately shook his head.
A simple mountain man who lives in the mountains, his expression on his face will not be hidden at all, so how could he hide it from the eyes of the old martial artists in front of him?
After some torture, the old man could only say what he knew little by little. Every time he said a sentence, he translated it from the thin tall man.
"He said there is such a place, but according to ancient legend, there are demons sealed there and they must not go there."
This is a legend passed down from the Sanger clan. It is said that thousands of years ago, there was a terrifying demon on the earth. In order to kill the demon, the gods sealed him into the earth and then landed countless guards as guards.
"A simple story." Shen Anan, who was standing next to him, analyzed: "The civilization level of these natives is too low. Compared to them, Amaliken, who can use Taoism, belongs to an incredible country. It is likely that their ancestors met the process of the Amaliken people building ancient tombs, so this legend has come.
Li Xun nodded: "What else did he say?"
The place where the gods sealed the demons was indeed in a valley, and the valley was originally covered with stone pillars and stone mountains. When the wind blew, there would be a terrifying roar.
The old people in the tribe all said that it was the demons sealed in the valley howling. The people of the Gesang tribe abide by the ancient sayings and never dared to step into the Ghost Crying Valley. However, everything changed one night decades ago.
At that time, the old man in front of him was just a six or seven-year-old villain.
A group of people with strange clothes and black hair and eyes were welcomed in the village. These people were very powerful and rich. Not long after, they got the favor of the villagers. However, the great wizard found that they seemed to be very interested in the Ghost Crying Valley and often asked about the situation inside, so he kept persuading them not to go in, and the big demon was sealed inside.
Shen Anan smiled and said, "It seems like he met a fellow traveler. He is stepping on a plate and asking about the situation in the cemetery." She looked at Li Xunyi and said, "Is your information accurate? Could it be that after we went in, there were only a pile of pots and pans left, and we couldn't find anything, right?"
Li Xunyi said, "Listen to him."
Although the great wizard persuaded those people not to approach Guixue Valley, things happened eventually. It was early morning, and a earth-shaking noise suddenly came from the direction of Guixue Valley. The great wizard led his people to the rooms of the Daqi people and found that they were all gone.
When he was angry and rushed to Guichui Valley with his men, the entire valley changed amazingly overnight. All the valleys were filled with countless trees. Originally, many stones were covered with green, and even Guichui Valley never heard the sound of the wind blew the ghost cry again.
The great wizard was worried that the strangers would release demons by recklessly, so he sent the most brave warriors in the tribe to enter the Ghost Crying Valley.
But no matter how many people they sent or who they sent, no one came out of Guichui Valley. The quiet forest was like a green hell, devouring all life.
Even the Gesang tribe began to die, just as if the gods had cursed, and many people began to die for no reason.
At the beginning, it was an old man, and the elderly in the tribe began to become weak, as if they were collectively old and dying at the same time.
If this was just a coincidence and had not attracted the attention of the great wizard, the young woman who began to die next caused panic in the tribe.
At that time, young women died every day. Some of them died of animals, some died of illness, and some fell off a cliff. This situation became more and more serious as time passed. In the end, some women even choked to death after eating.
It's like there's an invisible nightmare taking their lives.
