A corpse vulture that was two to three feet long landed, folded its broad wings, tilted its head, and stared at the "corpse" that was "dying but not dead".
After hesitating for a while, the corpse vulture stretched out its claws like iron hooks, grabbed the "corpse", took off suddenly, and flew away quickly with a cry.
"Dad, the 'sacred bird' of the ancestral temple seems to have picked up a prey from the 'holy mountain'." At the foot of the mountain, a little girl of no more than seven or eight years old wearing a gray fursuit said with a childish voice and a pair of big black eyes.
, very charming.
"The divine bird has children. He must be looking for prey everywhere, otherwise how will he feed them." A tall, rough, bearded man with his upper body exposed laughed loudly and said to the little boy, "Just like dad, he has to go out to hunt."
Only a wild beast can support you and your brother."
"But that's a holy mountain, isn't it possible to go up there?" the little girl asked doubtfully.
"Holy Mountain? Are you saying that the sacred bird is a prey caught from the Holy Mountain?" The rough man came back to his senses and asked hurriedly.
"Yes, it seems that he is still a human being."
"Chief, something happened on the holy mountain!" The rough man turned around and shouted loudly towards the village behind him.
Immediately, everyone who was still in the village hurriedly ran out. The holy mountain was the supreme mountain in their hearts. It was holy and noble and must be respected and sacrificed. It did not allow for the slightest defilement or the slightest mistake.
"Fu Xiang, what's going on?" A tall, thin old man with a dark complexion came to the front, serious in speech and dignified.
"This little girl Jie Mang saw the divine bird taking a person away from the top of the holy mountain." The big man Fu Xiang said quickly.
"Really?" The patriarch looked at the little girl.
"Yes." The little girl nodded timidly, stepped back, and couldn't help but grab her father Fu Xiang's big hand. She was a little afraid of this serious patriarch.
"Second brother, take a few people to the top of the holy mountain to see what's going on. Fu Xiang, you guys follow me to the ancestral temple," the clan leader said.
"Yes." Several people responded.
"I'm afraid he's already dead if he was captured by the divine bird." The clan leader whispered to himself, "I just don't know how someone would appear here?"
…
Lu Yu was still unconscious at this moment, unaware that he was about to be eaten.
The corpse vulture captured Lu Yu and landed on a slightly crooked old tree. The old tree seemed to be four to five feet thick and half fell to the ground. The branches stretched out in all directions, and the red leaves were tumbling like fire.
The nest of baby birds is hiding behind the dense forest leaves and chirping.
Seeing their mother coming back with prey, several young birds immediately became active, flapped their wings that were not yet fully feathered, and scrambled to crawl out of the nest. The carcass vulture put down its "prey" and pecked it lovingly a few times.
A young bird.
Several young birds gathered on Lu Yu, and some of their immature sharp beaks pecked at Lu Yu's body.
A layer of misty multicolored light suddenly bloomed from Lu Yu's back and turned into a blurry disk, protecting Lu Yu and allowing him to avoid the pain of "dividing and eating".
Seeing this, several young birds immediately cried, fluttered, and continued to "snatch". The corpse vulture stretched out its hook-like claws and grabbed Lu Yu. Sparks flew everywhere, but it still could not break through the hole.
Layer "disk".
The clan leader and others came quickly and arrived at the lair of the old tree, just in time to see this scene.
"This... this person is still alive?" Fu Xiang looked at the clan leader in surprise.
"Probably still alive." The clan leader nodded slowly with a solemn expression. "He has strange phenomena, is protected by spiritual beings, and is still alive after being injured like this. He must not be an ordinary person."
"Then should we take him back?" Fu Xiang asked.
"Kill it, or throw it somewhere else and let it fend for itself. Don't cause more trouble." An old man with a gray beard next to him narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"Let's take him back first, but if something happens to a young boy who is too young, he can be killed easily." The clan leader thought for a moment and finally decided.
"Sacred Bird, I'm afraid there's something strange about this kid. We want to take him back. As for hunting, we will naturally compensate you." The clan leader looked at the corpse vulture and said.
"Gah, gah!" The corpse vulture screamed twice and nodded.
Although this corpse vulture is just an ordinary monster with ordinary strength, it is a "divine bird" in their eyes, a symbol of "auspiciousness", and is closely related to the ancestral temple. Even the clan leader respects them very much.
…
Back in the village, the six Yunhaichans had also been brought back by several other tribesmen.
"Patriarch, we found these people on the Holy Mountain, but they were unconscious all the time. We didn't dare to wake them up rashly. What do you think of solving them?" When those people saw the patriarch coming back, they immediately asked.
"It was also found on the Holy Mountain?"
"right."
"How could someone appear on the Holy Mountain? There are only a few aboriginal tribes like us, the 'Li', 'Qiongwei' and 'Heibei' living within hundreds of thousands of miles around, and they are isolated from the outside world. How could someone suddenly appear here?
"The patriarch looked at the unconscious figures and fell into deep thought.
"Could it be the legendary journey through the void?"
"Clan leader, these six people seem to be from the same clan." A clan member suddenly said.
"Same clan?" The clan leader lowered his head and saw the same pattern symbols on the sleeves and belts of the six Yun Hai Chan people.
"There is a bead on a mountain?" the patriarch murmured to himself, then turned and walked towards the ancestral house. Soon, the patriarch walked out of the ancestral house again, holding an ancient papyrus book as big as a small millstone in his hand.
The pages of the ancient book have already glowed, and the text and patterns on them are somewhat indistinct, and even have a bit of a musty smell. It has obviously been left there for a long time.
The patriarch opened the pages of the ancient book and searched carefully inside.
"The sixth chapter, Yuanzhou Sutra."
"Yuanzhou is divided into nine roads, Qingcheng Road, Santai Road, Baji Road, Jueming Road..."
"Jiuqing Dao, Luofu Cuixu Mountain, is the inheritance left by the fourth ancestor of the Taoist Lei Fa Nan Sect, 'Chen Niwan'."
The patriarch looked at this page and couldn't help but frown. He stood there for a long time without saying anything.
"They are actually from Yuanzhou. The distance is so far away. I think they came here by traveling through the void. And judging from their appearance, one is covered in bruises and is seriously injured and dying, while the other six are only slightly injured. It seems that they are being chased.
This will cause some trouble." The patriarch frowned, thinking over and over again in his heart.
"Clan leader, how to deal with them?"
"Huh?" The clan leader woke up with a start, glanced at Lu Yu, sighed, then took out a blue-gray pill and stuffed it into Lu Yu's mouth. "Fu Xiang, take two people and throw him to Jumang
In the valley, Yunlun, take a few people and throw these six people from Luofu Cuixu Mountain outside Jumang Valley."
"Whether he lives or dies depends on his destiny."
"Jumanggu? With his current appearance, can he survive?" Fu Xiang hesitated.
"Only there can give him a glimmer of hope. Other than that, there is no other good way. We are not related to him, so there is no need to get involved. Don't bring disaster to yourself when the time comes." The clan leader warned.
."Don't ask any questions, just do as I say."
"All right."
…
Jumang Valley.
A strange small valley. Hidden in a flaming crimson.
The valley is not big, only a few dozen miles in front and back. It looks like a big bird with wings spread out, and it looks like it is stepping on two clouds. But it is covered with various green vegetation, with vines and bushes everywhere.
.It looks quite eye-catching in the fiery red color, full of vitality.
An old tree stands in the center, with a gnarled trunk and raised bark, stacked in layers like dragon scales. Its branches and leaves spread like a cover, exuding a faint fragrance. It is nine feet tall and is engraved with the traces of time.
"Just put them here." Fu Xiang and others stopped and stood outside the valley. Then Fu Xiang turned to look at Yun Lun and said.
"What about this kid?" Yun Lun glanced at Lu Yu.
"I'll just send him in."
"Be careful."
"Don't worry, the servants of the gods will not take action against me." Fu Xiang waved his hand, grabbed Lu Yu, and walked step by step towards Jumang Valley.
At this moment, Lu Yu was still unconscious, but his condition was gradually improving unconsciously.
The Langfeng Lithium in the dantian rotated, releasing pure life energy, which flowed to Lu Yu's limbs and bones, nourishing his body, muscles, bones, and meridians; the Li clan leader fed him the
The blue-gray elixir slowly melted away, and its medicinal power flowed through his body, healing his injuries; even the 'Lianshan Turtle' elixir was also circulating the energy of the five elements, making up for the energy he had burned out.
Essence……
Fu Xiang came to the old tree with a pious look on his face. He bowed respectfully and immediately placed Lu Yu under the tree. He muttered something in a low voice, but he couldn't understand it. It was like an ancient
language.
After saluting again, Fu Xiang glanced at Lu Yu one last time and slowly stepped back.
Two "snakes" as thick as chopsticks, with horns on their heads and claws on their feet climbed down from the tree. One of them was crystal clear and green, its eyes were as bright as gems, and its body was filled with colored light, as if it was made of jade;
The other one is as red as magma, and its scales sparkle like dots of light, which is also crystal clear.
"This little guy is a bit special. I feel a vast and profound energy in him, and I seem to have felt it somewhere before." Green Snake said with a deep voice.
"This breath... I also feel a little familiar." Red Snake also said hesitantly, with a soft voice.
"The flames... have the smell of the Golden Crow, and the smell of the Void Rat," the green snake whispered, "and the breath of the Mountain Turtle?"
"Yes, it is indeed a mountain turtle, but it seems a bit special and seems to have no vitality." Red Snake was a little confused.
At this moment, behind Lu Yuji, the Five Elements Bagua pattern lit up, then turned into a ray of colorful light and escaped, turning into a palm-sized turtle with five eyes and carrying the Bagua on its back, and landed in front of the two snakes.
