As the two of them walked, a small mountain village suddenly appeared not far ahead.
Immediately afterwards, the two were stunned by the sight before them. They saw a bloody corpse not far away on the mountain road leading to the small mountain village.
These corpses are not normal dead corpses, but the remains left behind after being bitten and devoured by some wild beasts.
The two of them walked forward along the mountain road. The further they went, the more dead bodies they saw. Judging from the clothes of these people, some were villagers, while others were obviously sent by a certain force.
Walking all the way to the entrance of the village, there is a broken stone tablet with three large characters "Bailu Village" engraved on it.
Yun Duoduo looked around to see if anyone was alive.
Gu Yuan, however, became very interested in this stone tablet. He always felt that this stone tablet seemed to be somewhat different from other stone tablets.
After taking a closer look, on the stone tablet in Bailu Village, above the word "deer", there is an animal bone that looks like an antler. This animal bone and the rock are of the same color, and they are integrated. If you don't look carefully, it's really real.
can not tell,
This bone is only about the size of a palm, and I don’t know what material it is made of.
Gu Yuan took a look at it, and there was a faint feeling of gold and stone wherever he could reach it.
Without any hesitation, Gu Yuan smashed the stone tablet into pieces with one palm, took away the animal bones inside, and put them in his arms.
Although he still doesn't know what this animal bone is, it is not difficult for Gu Yuan to guess that it must be a treasure.
At this time, Yun Duoduo had also finished checking and came back.
Gu Yuan asked in a low voice: "How's it going? Did you find anything?"
Yun Duoduo shook her head and said: "No, they have not left any chickens or dogs behind. They have killed all the people in this village. They have not spared the old, young, women and children. Even the babies who were still in their infancy have been killed."
Who could do such a cruel thing?"
Gu Yuan couldn't answer this question. He had only been in the Xuanjing for only one day. How could he know about the grievances in the Xuanjing?
"What else did you find?"
"These people searched here thoroughly, even the walls of the courtyard and the fire pit in the house were not spared, and they were all knocked down and overturned.
In the true sense of the word, they are three feet apart! I think they are looking for something here, but I don’t know if they found it or not.
Also, most of the people outside the village were bitten to death by wild beasts, while most of the people in the village died of knife wounds. Why is this?"
Gu Yuan did not answer Yun Duoduo's question, but said: "No matter what reason they killed everyone in this village, it has nothing to do with us. We can't stay here for a long time, we have to leave as soon as possible."
Yun Duoduo hesitated for a moment and asked, "Gu Yuan, these people suffered an unreasonable disaster and no one in the village was left alive. It's really pitiful.
Do you think we should bury them?"
Gu Yuan shook his head and said: "We can't do it now. There are too many corpses. If we want to bury them, it will take too long. Although the Qianyu Mountains stretch for tens of thousands of miles, the road ahead is unknown and there are pursuers behind. We can't bury them there."
If we don't stay here for a long time, we'd better leave as soon as possible.
I’ll bury them again when I get the chance.”
Thinking of the pursuers, Yun Duoduo became worried: "Gu Yuan, where should we go next?"
Gu Yuan did not hide anything and said in a deep voice: "I haven't thought about it either. I'm not familiar with the Xuan Realm. I don't even know where I am now. I can only take one step at a time."
Yun Duoduo nodded silently with worry in his heart. After looking back at Bailu Village, he continued to move forward with Gu Yuan.
For a long time, neither of them spoke. The branches and leaves in the forest were lush and intertwined. Gu Yuan walked in front, opening a path for the clouds.
Yun Duoduo followed Gu Yuan quietly, and for a while, the only sound was the rustling of leaves on the forest floor as they walked.
The establishment of trust sometimes does not depend on the length of time you have known each other, but on how the other party treats you.
Both Yun Duoduo and Gu Yuan had tried their best to give each other a chance to escape.
Now the two people are life and death allies.
As they were walking, a black column of smoke suddenly appeared in the forest. The two looked at each other and immediately turned around and ran away.
The pursuers arrived and discovered them!
Then several figures flew in front of Yun Duoduo and Gu Yuan at extremely fast speeds, blocking their way.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen young men in monk uniforms chased after him from behind.
The leading man in gray looked at Yun Duoduo coldly and snorted from his nose.
The short-haired boy standing next to him immediately said: "Junior Sister Duoduo, we are also following orders. Please also ask Junior Sister Duoduo to follow us back to Xuankun Mountain and not to embarrass us."
Yun Duoduo bit her lip and quietly took out the thunderbolt. No need to ask, these former classmates wanted to capture Yun Duoduo and take them back to trap Zhang Feng. Yun Duoduo did not want to go back with these people.
Gu Yuan gently pressed Yun Duoduo's arm, shook his head invisibly, and whispered into Yun Duoduo's ear, "Don't act rashly, wait and see what happens first, and then look for opportunities."
Who is this man in gray?"
Yun Duoduo whispered, "He is the law enforcement elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, Elder Mo.
I have always lived on the peak with Master and rarely go down the mountain. I don’t know the other people either. They are probably all disciples of my sect.”
There were so many people coming to round them up that the two of them had no chance to escape.
When the short-haired boy saw that Yun Duoduo was silent, he felt that she had agreed. He stepped forward and planned to take Yun Duoduo away. At the same time, he asked who Gu Yuan was and why he was with Yun Duoduo.
Yun Duoduo told the young man in black according to the previously prepared lines that she and Gu Yuan had just met. Because she promised Gu Yuan to introduce Gu Yuan to join Xuankun Mountain, Gu Yuan was with her.
When it came to Gu Yuan's name, although Yun Duoduo was young, she knew how to be cautious. She was afraid of causing trouble for Gu Yuan, so she specially changed Gu Yuan's name to Gu Heizi.
Gu Yuan has neither taken a bath nor washed his face since he entered the Xuan Realm and was dug out of the mud by Yun Duoduo.
His face was also covered in black mud after the explosion in the tunnel. His entire face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
It would be appropriate to say that his name is Heizi.
Looking at Gu Yuan, the short-haired boy couldn't make up his mind. Should he keep Gu Yuan or take him away with him?
The short-haired boy couldn't make up his mind, so he turned to look at Elder Mo.
Elder Mo waved his hand impatiently, and then the short-haired boy took Gu Yuan and asked everyone to go together.
Since Yun Duoduo and Gu Yuan did not resist, the short-haired boy was quite polite to them.
Through the conversation between the short-haired boy and other disciples, Gu Yuan knew that the short-haired boy was Senior Brother Chen.
After the two parties had walked no more than two miles, they met another group of monks who came to look for Yun Duoduo.
