C7 (1/2)
On this day, Jiang Chuan and the old man went into the deep mountains to hunt as usual, but as soon as they arrived, the old man frowned. Even Jiang Chuan noticed that there was something different about the deep mountains.
”Roar!”
The roar of a fierce beast resounded through the forest!
”Di Jiang?” ”Why did this demonic beast come to the edge of the mountains?!” The old man frowned as he recognized the owner of this roar! It was the same Di Jiang that even the ghost gods would have to worry about!
The shape of this beast was extremely weird. It had six legs, four wings, no ears, no nose, but it was extremely sensitive to the surroundings. Moreover, it was extremely savage and ate other living creatures, never eating vegetarian food.
It was said that a thousand years ago, before Chu was established, this Di Jiang walked out of the mountains once. That time, his life was in ruins and he howled in grief because of Di Jiang's visit.
However, this beast usually lived deep in the mountains and rarely left the mountains. This time around, the distance between Di Jiang and the King Village was not too far!
”Chuan'er, hurry up and leave this place!” The old man no longer cared about entering the mountain and was about to leave with Jiang Chuan.
At this moment, several long arcs broke through the sky and flew towards the depths of the mountain. As the long arcs disappeared, the miserable screams of Di Jiang could be heard from the depths of the mountain.
Who could be like this? Those streaks of light were either wielding a great sword or a mysterious magical equipment. Their speed was extremely fast, but Jiang Chuan could see them clearly!
The old man furrowed his brows as a bewildered expression appeared on his face. He then mumbled, ”Why did these people come to Chu?”
”Grandpa, do you know them?” Jiang Chuan asked doubtfully. From his grandfather's words, he could tell that his grandfather seemed to recognize these people.
However, the old man shook his head and said, ”I don't know them. These people are too far away from us.”
The two of them quickly returned to the King Village and informed the villagers about this matter. They told the villagers to temporarily leave the King Village and hide for a few days, but there were no villages within a hundred miles of the village. Where could they hide? Therefore, not many people were willing to leave.
Jiang Chuan stood in front of his wooden house and stared at the deep mountains. Suddenly, a flame burst out from the depths of the mountains. That flame illuminated the sky for a long time, just like the sunset glow!
”Mountain fire?!” Jiang Chuan turned pale with fright, it was as if that place was on fire!
In this kind of place, it was fine if there was no fire. But if there was, it could sometimes last for months or even years! Jiang Chuan had heard from the elders of the Great Wang Village that once, a mountain fire lasted for two and a half years, and countless wild beasts were burned to death. After that, in a few years, the villagers basically could not catch any big prey.
”That's not mountain fire,” the old man muttered as he walked out from the house.
The flame shot up into the sky and a giant creature could be seen within it. It was as if it was bathing in the fire!
”Grandfather!” ”What's that!?” Jiang Chuan pointed at the gigantic object in the fiery light and cried out in shock.
”That is the deepest part of the mountain, I have never been there, I do not recognize that place either.” The old man shook his head and said, that place, even people like him did not dare to enter!
Jiang Chuan stared unwaveringly at the source of the fire. At the edge of the flame, there seemed to be several long arcs dancing in the air, just like the ones he had seen on the edge of the mountain!
”Grandfather!” ”It seems to be those people!?” Jiang Chuan pointed and said.
