Wang Tiezhu, dressed in gray linen clothes, lay quietly in a patch of grass. His face, which was originally stained with blood, had become as white as ever after being washed. His obsidian-like eyes were quietly staring at a group of people in the distance.
After following the dragon-slaying bandit and wandering around the Fallen Dragon Valley for two days, he almost understood the ins and outs of the so-called "unusual treasure appearing in the world".
It is said that five or six days ago, an extremely strong wave of spiritual energy suddenly erupted deep in the Fallen Dragon Valley, and then a pillar of light rose from the ground and shot straight into the sky, accompanied by a powerful dragon roar.
In the end, this beam of light lasted for several hours before gradually fading away.
Later, some people speculated that this was a sign that the treasure left by the divine dragon who died here had reappeared.
The major forces entrenched in the Fallen Dragon Valley, as well as the surrounding sects, all heard the news and rushed into the depths of the Fallen Dragon Valley to look for the treasure left by the dragon.
After knowing these things, Wang Tiezhu smiled helplessly.
The so-called visions of heaven and earth were really caused by his acceptance of Ao Fang's inheritance. So, wouldn't he be the so-called "extraordinary treasure"?
Thinking of this, he touched his forehead, and there was a light red mark there.
After receiving Ao Fang's inheritance, according to him, his body will undergo some changes, but except for the scar left on his forehead after being scratched by him, there are no other obvious differences.
"Could it be that boy who lied to me?"
Wang Tiezhu shook his head and once again turned his attention to the group of dragon-slaying bandits in the distance.
I originally thought about following this thief and looking for a chance to get a spiritual weapon to control the air.
But I didn't expect that these people were a little too cautious and kept silent. Even when they met other teams who came here to hunt for treasures, they would take a detour from a distance. They didn't have the same ferocity as when they robbed others.
So after following him for a few days, he had the idea of giving up, but there was an advantage in following this group of people, that is, he would not encounter danger.
Among this group of people was a taciturn middle-aged man named Deng Mang, who was the leader of the Dragon Slayer Bandits.
Although he has never seen him take action, every time he encounters other forces, he can sense them in advance, which makes Wang Tiezhu doubt his spiritual root attributes.
He Yu in Qingling Sect has a similar ability, relying on wind spirit roots to capture small movements in the air, thereby knowing the surrounding situation in advance, but the distance is not as far as Deng Mang's perception.
So he guessed that Deng Mang was either a low-level Fenglinggen monk with a high level, or a low-level Fenglinggen monk with a high level.
However, he still had a few questions. He had been following them for so long without Deng Mang noticing, and if Deng Mang's spiritual roots were not of low quality, how could he make a living by robbing others in the Falling Dragon Valley?
After hesitating for a while, he decided to follow them for a while. If there was still no harvest, he would leave them and find a way out on his own.
After making up his mind, Wang Tiezhu concentrated on observing the group of dragon-slaying bandits who were resting in the distance. He had learned a lot from them in the past few days, and perhaps he could also gain some useful information in the future.
"Brother, drink."
The bald man came to Deng Mang, who was resting with his eyes closed, and offered him a bowl of wine.
Seeing Deng Mang take the drink and drink it, the bald man rubbed his hands and asked: "Brother, there is no way for us to continue like this! We can hide when we encounter others along the way, and we can't get the spiritual crystal elixir."
Replenish.
The supplies that the brothers brought with them when they came out are almost used up, and they haven't been able to find that treasure for a long time. If we continue, the brothers will end up in the Fallen Dragon Valley sooner or later!"
"Are you scared?"
Deng Mang put down the wine bowl, glanced at the bald head, and spoke calmly.
"Brother, what are you talking about?" Baldhead's expression changed, and he said quickly: "I have followed you for so long, and you still don't know what kind of person I am? Are you worried about your brothers?"
Deng Mang stared at the bald head for a while, then suddenly smiled, stood up, and patted his shoulder.
"Okay, let's continue to let the brothers go on their way after resting. I have my own plan."
"Okay, okay..."
Looking at Deng Mang's back, a hint of fear flashed in the bald eyes.
Noticing that the Dragon Slayer Bandit and his group were about to leave, Wang Tiezhu was shocked and followed them quietly.
…
Half a day later.
Wang Tiezhu followed the dragon-slaying bandits and came to a cave.
I saw Deng Mang standing in front of the cave, looking at his dozen brothers.
"Brothers! It's been eight or nine days since we came out this time. I believe everyone has some doubts in their hearts. Why do I ask everyone to avoid other forces this time? The reason is very simple, I just don't want to attract their attention!"
"Moreover! We came out this time not for the so-called exotic treasures. Our real destination is the cave behind me!"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused intense discussion among the Dragon Slayer Bandits.
"Brother! What do you mean by this? Aren't the brothers here just to find treasures this time?"
"That's right, brother! Didn't you tell me before you set off that if you find the treasure, the brothers no longer need to stay in the Fallen Dragon Valley? Why do you say you are not here to find the treasure?"
…
Looking at the chattering crowd, Deng Mang smiled slightly and said loudly: "That's right! I promised that after this time, the brothers no longer need to stay in the Falling Dragon Valley!
But it’s not because of that treasure, the real opportunity is in the cave behind me. You might as well follow me in, and everything will become clear!”
After that, regardless of other people's reactions, Deng Mang waved his hand and walked into the cave alone.
The bald man gritted his teeth and followed in. The rest of the people looked at it and had no choice but to follow the bald man into the cave.
Wang Tiezhu, who was hiding in the dark, had doubts in his eyes.
"Aren't you looking for treasures? What kind of medicine is sold in this Deng Mang gourd?"
He squinted his eyes and thought for a while, thinking that after following him for so long, it would be a shame not to follow him, so he followed closely and disappeared into the dark cave.
The cave was damp, dark, and complicated. Fortunately, the dragon-slaying bandits spoke loudly, so he didn't lose his way.
After following the dragon-slaying bandits for another stick of incense, they finally stopped in front of a darker cave entrance.
Deng Mang stood at the entrance of the cave and bowed respectfully inside.
"Elder Fasha, Deng Mang wants to see you!"
Only an extremely harsh sound was heard coming from the dark hole.
"It's Deng Mang! Come in quickly, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"yes!"
After Deng Mang finished speaking, he winked at the people behind him, then bowed and walked into the cave.
