The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 583 Stockade
Xuanze still firmly believes that his master will not deceive him.He still remembered what Xuan Ming said when he handed the map to him with a helpless smile on his face, he said: "This is the map you have been arguing about for several days, take it."

At that time, my brother even blamed himself for this incident. After all, Xuanming did not look very good at that time, but children never think so much, especially people like Xuanze who have never been out of Beihai and met strangers. For the young dragon of man, he naively believes that what is promised should be done.So he never felt that he did something wrong, but when he grew up, he still felt that he was a little too stubborn back then.

However, that was all a long time ago. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still hoped that this place was the underworld. Unfortunately, he is no longer a young dragon. Most things will not be diverted from his will.

The two finally came to the magnificent castle when the sun was about to set, saying that the castle was actually more like a stockade.An ancient and desolate village.

"No one?" Hu Weixian stood in front of the gate of the village, looked up at the towering watchtower of the gate, then turned his head and said to Xuanze, "Are you sure?"

In fact, is there anyone who can tell at a glance? After all, for them, this kind of thing is not difficult to guess.If there were people, they would have been warned as early as when they approached the stockade. Even if the host was hospitable, someone would come out to entertain them at this time.But as it is now, the two of them have already stood at the entrance of the stockade, and if there is still no movement inside, it is enough to show that there is really no one inside.

The reason why Hu Weixian asked Xuanze was because he felt that Xuanze's mood was not right.It didn't start from today either, Xuanze's mood was wrong, it was very obvious from the moment they got deeper and deeper into this place.He always felt that, unlike himself, in Xuanze's eyes, this place was the underworld, and it could only be the underworld.

Of course, he also hoped that this place was the underworld, otherwise, he would not have gone to Beihai to find Xuanze.After all, if there is anyone in this world who can know how to get to the underworld, Xuanze is probably the only one.He is a divine beast raised by the sea god of the North Sea. Hu Weixian met him at a banquet when they were young. At that time, the two of them were still children, and they would fight if they disagreed at the banquet.

Later, after returning to the clan, he was reprimanded by the elders for this incident.

Children are like this, no matter what is right or wrong in this matter, but he was scolded because of Xuanze's affairs, so he put this account on Xuanze's head, so he pays special attention to Xuanze movement.After a long time, he knew that Sea God really loved Xuan Ze.

Hu Weixian has not been a peaceful child since he was a child, and he may not have the word security in his bones.But Qingqiu's Nine-Tailed Fox has always had this temperament, so the clan doesn't restrict him too much, but does whatever he wants, as long as it's not too much, generally no one cares about him.This also resulted in his lawless character. Such a character is not bad, but for a child, there will always be some surprises.

Hu Weixian's surprise was that he learned from the elder that the elder had gone to the underworld with the sea god of Beihai, and that the sea god had given him a map in order to coax Xuanze.Because it was related to his "rival", Hu Weixian remembered this matter very clearly. He once had the idea of ​​secretly obtaining that map, but because Xuanze lived in Beihai, and Beihai was still a little girl at that time. For Hu Weixian of Fox, it was too far away, so he had to give up this idea in the end.

But here he gave up, but on the other hand, he kept this matter firmly in his heart.So much so that when he was about to come to the underworld, his first thought was actually that map.

When Hu Weixian was young, he once met Xuanming from a distance, and later on in many banquets, he had some encounters with that legendary god with a violent temper. He always felt that although others said that Xuanming had a bad temper, Hu Weixian thought that he would not perfunctory Xuanze in this kind of matter.

Besides, apart from that map, there may really be nothing in this world that can lead them to the underworld.

Yes, Hu Weixian is also a person who wants to come to the underworld. Of course, he also hopes that the place he has worked so hard to reach is the underworld, but what if it is not?What if not?The longer they stayed in this place, the more suspicious they became.It's not that Hu Weixian didn't think about this possibility, and in the end he concluded that if it wasn't, then there was nothing else he could do. If it wasn't, he could only nod his head and admit it, and then find other ways.This is different from Xuanze, Xuanze has a stubborn feeling, as if no matter what this place is, in his eyes, it is the underworld, and it can only be the underworld, and he does not accept any refutation.

Therefore, Hu Weixian, the Qingqiu fox who has always been famous for guessing people's hearts, asked him what he meant.It's not that I really want to get anything from him, I just want to have a proper conversation with him and divert his attention.

"No one." Xuan Ze didn't think too much, he heard Hu Weixian's question, and replied lightly: "But this place, I always feel a little strange."

Nonsense, of course strange.Since coming here, everything has been very strange!Hu Weixian said so, and took a last look at the towering watchtower not far away, and said, "Then let's go in and have a look?"

"En." Xuanze responded, then raised his foot and walked towards the gate of the village.

They have already come here, and if they give up, it will be out of their character.Since there is no one on the watchtower in this village, let them go in and look for it. No one outside does not mean that there is no one inside. Maybe the owner just thought that no one would come to this place, so there is no need to set up a watchtower. !Hu Weixian watched him lift his legs and walk towards the gate of the village. He always felt that something in his heart was about to break through the ground. He looked at the watchtower with some anxiety, until Xuanze's figure disappeared behind the gate of the village, nothing came out. After coming to attack him, Hu Weixian quickly chased after him.

It's not that he is careful, he just thinks this place is so weird, and they basically don't have much mana here, so there is always nothing wrong with being more careful.Therefore, Xuanze let him decide many things along the way.It's just that as they got deeper and deeper into this place, both of them gradually felt that something was wrong with this place. It was too quiet here, and when they got to the back, they were used to not being able to see anything.

The sense of emptiness as if there were only the two of them in the world, as the days went by, the two of them let down their guard inadvertently. After all, if only you and your companions are left in a place, it is normal People will not continue to be on guard or something.And it was such a place that made Hu Weixian's sense of crisis that was almost dormant suddenly exploded, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Just like him, Xuan Ze has also gotten used to the empty feeling of this place, and gradually his defenses are slowly lowered.But when he saw that there was no one at the entrance of the village, he suddenly had a feeling of being watched. That kind of gaze was a little probing and not malicious, but Xuanze had a feeling, as if In the eyes of the person looking at them, they are just two small bugs that accidentally broke in, harmless, but once there is any movement that the owner doesn't like, then the next thing will not be so friendly.

So although he seemed to be casual, his whole body was tense at this moment.

However, to his surprise, nothing happened. When he came to his senses, he had already walked into the village, and then, Hu Weixian chased after him.

"This is..." Hu Weixian looked at the scene in front of him, unable to recover for a long time.

In fact, what is in front of him is just a very ordinary looking village. If you look carefully, you can still see the shadows of the buildings of some ethnic minorities in the world. Xuanze looked at this place and turned his head to look at Hu Weixian. Know why he was so surprised.

"Follow me." Upon receiving his gaze, Hu Weixian settled down, stretched out his hand, and walked towards the tallest tower in the village.

"What's the matter?" Looking at him with some confusion, Xuanze asked while being dragged away by him: "What's wrong?"

"Tell me later." Hearing his question, Hu Weixian turned around and made a silent gesture to him, and then stopped talking.

Seeing his appearance, Xuanze thought for a while, and finally chose wisely to keep his mouth shut.Anyway, he doesn't know anything about this place now, but Hu Weixian seems to know something, but he knows, but he doesn't intend to say it, at least he doesn't intend to say it at this time, then it will be very inappropriate to ask himself.

At this time, it was already dark, and there were no lights or candles. The two walked through an ancient village under the moonlight. There was no one in the village, which made the figures of the two look very strange. .

At this time, it seemed that the world had become quiet, and even the wind was not blowing.

The two bypassed many buildings, bypassed a large open space in the middle of the village, and finally stopped in front of a huge tower.

"Hey……"

At this time, from nowhere, there was a sudden sigh.
