The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 429
On the endless green grassland, two figures, one black and one white, are moving slowly, they seem unaware of the sun hanging in the sky.Even at noon when the sun was at its most poisonous, the speed never slowed down.

It's not that they don't want to rest, it's just that both of them know in their hearts that they have wasted too much time in other places.Up to now, the two have no rest time.

At this time, as if he was suddenly tired from walking, the man in white stopped suddenly.He raised his head to look at the huge sun in the sky, and then said: "We have been walking for a day, according to our speed, at this time, no matter what, we should see some other scenery."

The man in black didn't seem to take his words seriously: "It should be. There are many things that should be in this world, but they may not be true."

Knowing this time, Heilong didn't really want to listen to himself and talk about other nonsense.Hu Weixian paused for a while before continuing: "Are you sure our direction is correct?"

As if offended by something, the black dragon raised his eyebrows and said: "Or else, you lead the way?"

For some reason, Hu Weixian always felt that after walking into this grassland, the black dragon's temper became more and more strange.Although he had been eccentric a long time ago, he had never been like this.

Therefore, Hu Weixian, who has always had seven orifices, was silent for a while, then shook his head: "Don't be kidding, it's the first time for me to come to this place. Since I have sources of information, of course I believe you."

After saying this, he pretended to ask unintentionally: "Then how long do you think we have before we can get out of here?"

"How long it will take to get out of here, I don't know. It's just that I know, no matter what, this direction is right." Heilong said nonchalantly, glanced at him, and seemed to have seen through all his little things. thought.

Seeing him like this, Hu Weixian's heart trembled, as if something crossed his mind, but he was too late to catch it.

After a long while, he said, "Heilong, you know what kind of situation the two of us will face later. So before that, I hope we have a good talk."

To say this, Hu Weixian actually considered a lot of situations.He knew that Heilong might not be willing to listen to the truth in this situation.But for future actions, he must kill all uncertain factors in the cradle at this time.

His words made Heilong raise his eyebrows, and then asked: "What do you want to talk about?"

"I want to know, how did you know that the route we are taking is right." After saying this, before the black dragon had time to speak, he continued to speak: "I said so, no What do you want to find out. I just want to know, why on earth are you so confident in the route we are taking?"

"Otherwise?" Unexpectedly, the black dragon seemed to be completely indifferent to his words. He sneered, and then said: "Besides, do you think we have other options? Apart from trusting the current information We have no other way of orienting ourselves other than that."

After he finished speaking, he took a deep look at Hu Weixian, then sighed, and said: "Even if my information is hundreds of years ago, we have no other choice. After all, the place where we are now It’s the underworld, a place no stranger has ever entered.”

His words made Hu Weixian wake up all of a sudden, he had confirmed his guess from Heilong's words.The source of information for the two of them is indeed the Sea God Temple.

Since it is the Sea God Temple, he has a bottom line in his heart.He remembered that he was in the clan when he was a child. At that time, the books in the clan did record some things about the underworld.But at that time he was still young.When he grows up and thinks about these things again, the clansmen have already followed the big army of the monster clan to the demon world.

The clansmen who are still in the human world are all juniors, and they obviously don't know as much about those ancient secrets as they do.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Heilong sneered and said, "Instead of entangled with these things with me here, it's better to hurry up now. Maybe by this time tomorrow, we will be able to see a different scenery."

He deliberately added an accent to the last sentence, as if mocking what Hu Weixian said before.For such a bad-tempered companion, Hu Weixian was obviously used to it. He didn't speak, but walked quickly in the direction pointed by the black dragon.

Indeed, as Heilong said, instead of arguing about such useless things here, the two of them should hurry on their way.After all, apart from the information provided by the black dragon, they have no way to tell right from wrong.

But I don't know why, there is always a kind of anxiety, lingering in Hu Weixian's heart, which will not go away for a long time.

But there was nothing he could do about being uneasy, he could only follow the instructions of the black dragon and move forward.In this way, the two walked for a while after the moon came out.Suddenly the black dragon stretched out his hand and made a gesture to signal him to stop.

In fact, even if Heilong didn't make this gesture, Hu Weixian would not continue to move forward.His intuition from the ancient monster told him that there was something very dangerous in front of him, which was rapidly approaching him.

Seeing his appearance, Heilong asked in a low voice: "You feel it too?"

Hu Weixian nodded solemnly, and put on a posture ready to fight. At this moment, the wind blowing across the grassland brought a burst of shouts.

"Help—! Help!"

The cry for help stunned both of them.They didn't expect that the cry for help could be heard in this place.And as the voice grew louder, they realized that the person calling for help was getting closer and closer to them.

What happened before them was completely beyond their comprehension.You know, this is not a barren mountain anywhere, this is the underworld.According to legend, a place where strangers should not come near.

How could there be other people in this place?Even if there were other people, how could they make such a cry for help?While the two of them were thinking, a man wearing Wu clan clothes quickly ran towards the two of them.

As he ran towards the two of them, he shouted in his mouth: "Help...! Help! Run! You run...! You two, run!"

Just when Hu Weixian was frowning and looking at him, trying to figure out what the hell the visitor was doing, Heilong suddenly reached out, grabbed his arm, and shouted: "Run!"

Then regardless of whether Hu Weixian reacted or not, he grabbed him, turned around and ran back.After being dragged by the black dragon for a while, Hu Weixian came back to his senses. He turned his head, looked at the person who asked for help, and asked, "What's the matter? What happened?"

The black dragon dragged him for a while, and found that the person behind did not catch up, then turned his head and explained to him: "Look carefully, what was chasing behind that person just now?"

Hearing his words, Hu Weixian narrowed his eyes, and carefully looked behind the person who just turned to him for help.I saw thick fog rolling behind him.But these are not enough to make the black dragon react like this. If it is the black mist alone, let alone the black dragon, even the Wu tribe may not be afraid.

The frightening thing is that the thick fog seemed to be alive, and gradually formed a wolf shape.Of course, these are not enough to scare Hu Weixian, after all, they have seen such things a lot in the human world.And he also knew that if it was just a writhing, wolf-like disgusting thing, it would not be enough for the black dragon to react like this.So he asked, "What the hell is that?"

After hearing his words, the black dragon turned around, took a deep look at him, and then spoke.He said: "I don't know what it is, but I have seen something similar to them in the collection of the Sea God Temple."

He said, his voice slowly lowered: "This kind of thing is called ghost fog. No one knows what it is. We only know that it will hunt living creatures according to the shape of the prey."

Hearing his words, Hu Weixian looked at him with an unbelievable gaze, and said, "Hunting living creatures? If I remember correctly, we are in the underworld now, right?"

According to legend, strangers in the underworld should not get close.If these ghost fogs are really targeting living creatures, how have they existed for so many years?If these things are really the legendary ghost mist as the black dragon said, then it proves that there are other living creatures besides them in the underworld.

As if he knew what was going on in his heart, the black dragon raised his chin at the man in Wu clan costume who asked him for help before: "Isn't there a living creature there?"

Hearing his words, Hu Weixian felt suddenly enlightened.Yes, isn't there a living thing in front of you?Is the previous legend true or not? What is that cloud of fog that has been chasing them?As long as you catch that person, everything will be solved.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Heilong, and asked, "Can you help me?"

As if aroused by his smile, the black dragon smiled and said: "From the time I saw that record, I wanted to know what the so-called ghost fog is. According to legend, they are residents of the ghost country, but so For many years, no one has ever known what the ghost country is like. So why not this time, let's start with him to understand the ghost country. "

After saying this, the black dragon jumped up and inserted between the black mist and the Wu clansman.

The young man in the costume of the Wu tribe didn't seem to expect that the black dragon would suddenly join in.He was startled, unsteady on his feet, and threw himself straight ahead.Just when he was about to fall, Hu Weixian appeared.

He reached out to help the boy up, and then smiled brightly.
