Zhuo Wen turned around and looked deeply at Xihan who stood up, his eyes flickering and looking complicated.
Xihan walked out quickly, pulled Zhuo Wen and invited him back into the hall.
"Little friend Zhuo! In fact, I heard about you from Xi Qiang and the others after you brought them back, and I actually had some guesses about you! I thought you were from other cities, but I didn't expect you were from this one.
People from the giant island!”
After Xihan asked Zhuo Wen to sit back down, he sighed softly.
Zhuo Wen looked at Xihan silently and said in a deep voice: "Since the gang leader has already made speculations, why do you still plan to appoint me as the next gang leader of the Hongqiang Gang? After all, I am an outsider!"
Xihan said with emotion: "In this Hongqiang Gang, the closest person to me is Xi Luan! He is my eldest brother, blood is thicker than water, but how did he do it?"
"Although you, little friend Zhuo, are an outsider, you have repeatedly saved our Hongqiang Gang from danger! At that moment, I knew that it doesn't matter whether you are an outsider or not! As long as this person really works for our Hongqiang gang.
Think about it, you are the most suitable candidate!"
Having said this, Xihan said helplessly: "It's a pity, little friend Zhuo, that you don't accept the position of leader of the Hongqiang Gang! This makes me quite distressed! But I won't force you!"
Zhuo Wen sat in his seat and said nothing. He actually didn't know what to say. He couldn't say that he was not from this world and came in from the outside.
Once these words come out, I'm afraid that no matter how courageous Xihan is, he may not take him in again, let alone talk about the sacred mountain.
"Dad! Since Brother Zhuo is unwilling to accept the position of gang leader, you don't have to force him!" Seeing Xihan mentioning the position of gang leader again, Xi Qiang couldn't help but said.
Hearing this, Xihan also realized that he had made a mistake, and he apologized to Zhuo Wen, and then said seriously: "Little friend Zhuo! The matter of the sacred mountain is not a secret on our island. Basically, everyone on the island knows it.
From the sacred mountain! This is what happened..."
Following Xihan's narration, Zhuo Wen also gradually understood the origin of the sacred mountain and this giant island.
During this period of time, the most vast thing was the endless sea of blood surrounding it.
The blood sea runs through the entire secret world, and in the depths of the blood sea, there live countless extremely terrifying and powerful creatures, and these creatures are extremely cruel and aggressive.
Many human races that exist on islands in the blood sea are often attacked by the creatures in the blood sea, and are dragged into the blood sea and eaten up.
The human race is too weak. For countless years, they have lived a fearful and inhuman life. Due to frequent attacks, the number of human races on various islands has also gradually decreased, almost to the point of being on the verge of extinction.
Later, in the center of the Blood Sea, endless magma suddenly erupted, forming a huge sacred mountain.
This sacred mountain is so high that it reaches straight into the sky and cannot be seen from the top.
After the sacred mountain was formed, countless magma began to surround the sacred mountain and formed a huge island.
What's even more strange is that the sacred mountain exudes extremely powerful energy. This energy is like a cover, covering the giant island, forming a rock-solid shield.
This powerful and strange shield is basically unobstructed to humans, but it does substantial damage to monsters in the sea of blood.
Many monsters that tried to break into the giant island were basically blown to pieces by the power of the sacred mountain.
Later, after the monsters in the Blood Sea learned enough lessons, they no longer dared to try to enter the sacred mountain island, but only dared to swim silently around the periphery.
The human race poured into the giant island from the many small islands scattered around, and built cities one after another on the giant island.
With the blessing of the sacred mountain, the human race has gradually become more prosperous and stronger on the giant island, and has gradually become less afraid of the blood sea monsters.
There are even some human monks who form a team to go out to sea to hunt down those blood sea monsters to avenge the blood of their ancestors.
Of course, the human monks living on the giant island would pay tribute to the sacred mountain in large quantities every year with a large amount of treasures, ingredients, living sacrifices, etc., in order for the sacred mountain to continue to protect them.
"Living sacrifice?" Zhuo Wen narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but raise his voice a bit.
Xihan smiled bitterly and said: "Little friend Zhuo! It seems you have thought of something. These living sacrifices are boys and girls, and they must be sacrificed to the sacred mountain every year!"
"Do you know what the final result will be after those boys and girls enter the sacred mountain?" Zhuo Wen asked.
Xihan shook his head and said: "I don't know that! Because the boys and girls sacrificed to the body every year seem to mysteriously disappear and never appear again!"
Hearing this, Zhuo Wen looked thoughtful and continued: "Then when will the next sacrifice on the sacred mountain be?"
Xihan was startled, but still replied: "In about eight months, the annual mountain sacrifice ceremony will be held!"
"That's it!" Zhuo Wen nodded, having an idea in his mind.
If you want to enter the sacred mountain without anyone noticing, the best way is to sneak into the mountain ceremony and enter the sacred mountain.
However, the next mountain sacrifice ceremony will take about eight months, which is a bit too long for Zhuo Wen.
"By the way! Leader Xihan, apart from the mountain sacrificial ceremony, has anyone ever climbed the sacred mountain?" Zhuo Wen suddenly asked.
Xihan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he took a deep look at Zhuo Wen, and said: "Little friend Zhuo! I advise you not to have such dangerous thoughts! The sacred mountain is extremely dangerous. Many powerful men with no beginnings of Taoism have sacrificed in Fei.
Enter the sacred mountain during the period of the Mountain Ceremony."
"But in the end, no one came back, and they all probably died in the sacred mountain. The sacred mountain is not something we can desecrate. If we enter recklessly, it is equivalent to courting death."
Zhuo Wen's pupils shrank. He didn't expect that the sacred mountain was so dangerous, and that so many powerful Taoists died in it.
Although Zhuo Wen's strength is not bad, it is only a little stronger than the powerful Taoist Wu Shi. If even the Taoist Wu Shi powerful can easily die in the sacred mountain, it will be very dangerous for Zhuo Wen to go in.
"During the mountain sacrificial ceremony, the power of the sacred mountain is the weakest, and it is relatively safe to enter the sacred mountain! However, there are special requirements for those who can enter the sacred mountain during the mountain sacrificial ceremony! Ordinary people are not allowed to enter!"
Xihan thought for a moment and spoke again: "Little friend Zhuo! I think you want to enter the sacred mountain! Although I don't know what your purpose is, I can help you!"
Zhuo Wen raised his head, his eyes were quite moved. He didn't expect Xihan to be willing to help him. If this was discovered, Xihan and even the Hongqiang Gang would be destroyed.
"Chief Xihan! You don't even know me very well, but you are willing to help me enter the sacred mountain? If I have any bad intentions, wouldn't you become a sinner?" Zhuo Wen said in surprise.
Xihan smiled and said: "I believe you! And I help you just to repay the favor! I, Xihan, don't like to owe others favors!"
