【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Hearing this, Gu Li was silent for a long time, sighed secretly, frowned, and said with some difficulty: "Eight years ago, the Zhai Temple was indeed destroyed."

Yuan Zhongxin crossed his arms and looked at him in the spare time and asked, "What happened?"

Gu Li replied in a deep voice, "Because of the fire."

Wang Kuan's eyes flickered slightly: "Someone deliberately set fire?"

Gu Li gritted his teeth secretly: "Yes."

"Who?"

Gu Li hurriedly shook his head, showing embarrassment: "I can't say."

Yuan Zhongxin stared at him thoughtfully for a while, then suddenly said, "Is it your father?"

Gu Li looked up at Yuan Zhongxin in astonishment, his lips trembling and his face pale.

"Besides, your father shouldn't be the only one who set the fire in the Zhai Temple eight years ago, right?"

Those who set the fire should also include the 12 people who died, and the 35 people who are still alive today, including Gu Changkun.

Wang Kuan thought about it and said, "So, all those who participated in the arson were killed by wild animals—why did you set fire to the village temple?"

Gu Li looked at the two of them hesitantly, with a panicked and anxious expression.

Seeing how affectionate he was, Yuan Zhongxin was just about to speak, but in the next second, his thoughts were cut off by a sudden shaking.

All of a sudden, there was a deafening roar from the depths of the woods. The entire forest was unbearable, and it was shaken by the roar. The roar broke through the sky and rushed towards the three of them. , It caused people to be horrified in an instant - I am afraid that groups of wild beasts had to protrude and roar in order to have such an earth-shattering momentum.

Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan looked at the sudden change in front of them in shock, and they were the first to react, and they wanted to drag the sluggish and helpless Gu Li to escape to the mouth of the forest. They were so fast that they didn't even dare to look back at the scene behind them .

However, no matter how fast Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan were, within a short while, they realized that the sound of wild beasts blindly colliding could be heard from a short distance behind them. He followed closely behind the three of them, relentlessly chasing after them.

Yuan Zhongxin gritted his teeth, but was shocked to find that the road at the entrance of the woods in front of him had been blocked by the figures of various beasts at some point. He looked back and glanced behind him, and his scalp became numb after just one glance. He couldn't tell what kind of beasts they were , I saw a group of black beasts coming at a fast speed with their teeth bared behind them, knocking down one tree after another frantically.

Wang Kuan suddenly shouted in shock: "Yuan Zhongxin, to the right!"

Yuan Zhongxin came back to his senses, his body flashed quickly, and he jumped onto the branch, narrowly dodging the wild lion that passed him and opened his mouth to try to swallow his head in one gulp.Yuan Zhongxin immediately jumped back to the ground and accelerated his speed. He raised his voice and shouted: "We can't keep circling in the woods, go to the cliff!"

Wang Kuan nodded calmly, and pulled Gu Li, who was pale and terrified to the point of being unable to react, with one hand. Under a big tree that flew over, he swung his right hand vigorously, and threw it onto the tree. The tree branch held him firmly——now that the situation was critical, Wang Kuan didn't give him too much attention.

Yuan Zhongxin watched Wang Kuan's movements, but did not stop him. He tiptoed, and hurried back to Wang Kuan's side. While narrowing the distance between himself and him, he dodged the beasts that were gradually chasing up behind him, several times. , if it weren't for Yuan Zhongxin's extremely fast reaction speed, he would have already become a beast's food.

The beast behind him was still chasing after him, as if he had decided to treat the two of them as dinner tonight, and kept making thrilling roars. The most primitive hostility and threat from nature penetrated deeply into his body. In the bones of Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the two finally came to the edge of the cliff through numerous forests. At that moment, they stopped.

On the edge of the cliff, there are magnificent waves, vast smoke, lingering everywhere, the lone sun is left alone in the world, its light is better than blood, like the bright eyes of the sky, the sky is cloudless for thousands of miles, the vast soup, the momentum is so majestic, it is unstoppable The soul trembles and yields to it.

The roar of the beast behind them brought the two back to their senses instantly. In front of them was a herd of beasts that could not get through, and behind them was an unknown abyss.

Wang Kuan subconsciously held Yuan Zhongxin's hand tightly, as if he had exhausted all his strength, dragged it behind him, and stood in front of him with a calm face.

Yuan Zhongxin let him hold it, and turned his head to stare coldly at the herd of beasts coming like a tide. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a figure, tall and slender, hidden under a black dress. Because he was far away, Yuan Zhongxin Zhong Xin only saw the man's blurred facial features.

The man in black stared at Yuan Zhongxin's direction for a moment, he sneered, raised his hand and put the jade whistle in his palm to his mouth, pursed his lips and blew it, a melodious whistle came through the air, and suddenly the herd of beasts The surging stopped, and even the roar continued to weaken.

Until the end, the herd of beasts completely settled down, but they still stared at Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan covetously.

Wang Kuan said in a daze, "Whistle?"

Yuan Zhongxin couldn't help being stunned when he heard the whistle. In this world, there are really people who can control wild animals through the whistle!

He vigilantly glanced at the wild beasts around him, and suddenly he remembered that there was a jade whistle in the cloth bag sent by Yuan Bofin. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Yuan Zhongxin secretly reached out and took out the jade whistle that had been in his arms all the time, and rubbed it in his hand, his expression solemn.

He knew that he could control beasts through the jade whistle, but the terrible thing was that he didn't know how to use it!

However, not long after the beast was quiet for a moment, another whistle sounded quickly, but this time the whistle sounded extremely harsh, piercing into the ears of the two of them like arrows, causing them endless headaches.

After the whistle blew, the herd of beasts who had finally settled down became irritable again after being stimulated, and even ran towards the two of them.

Yuan Zhongxin was in a hurry, he didn't care whether he would use the jade whistle or not, he put it on his mouth and bragged about it, and a whistle that was harsher than before rushed sharply into the layers of animal roars , actually cut off their roaring!

Both Yuan Zhongxin and Wang Kuan were taken aback, but the man in black was even more stunned than him. He stared at Yuan Zhongxin with wide eyes, his eyes were filled with astonishment, and he couldn't react.

Yuan Zhongxin thought that his messy operation had an effect, but in the next second, the frozen beast suddenly became irritable and rammed into the two of them even more crazily!

Wang Kuan was startled, instinctively pushed Yuan Zhongxin away, jumped up, and kicked away the oncoming lion, but because of the huge impact, his body was unstable, and he retreated to the edge of the cliff .

Yuan Zhongxin held the jade whistle in his hand and didn't dare to blow it again. He gritted his teeth and punched the tiger's head with its mouth wide open. With a little tiptoe, he stepped on the heads of countless beasts and rushed to Wang Kuan, dragging him away. back.

But at this moment, a black bear with an unusually terrifying figure suddenly appeared behind Yuan Zhongxin, and the bear's paw was slammed down, but Yuan Zhongxin didn't feel the danger behind him at all, and his attention was all on Wang Kuan .

Wang Kuan was heartbroken. He pulled Yuan Zhongxin over, turned over and held him in his arms. His back was completely exposed to danger, and he took the palm for him. In an instant, Wang Kuan felt the pain in his stomach. The river was overturned, the internal organs were turned upside down, and a mouthful of fishy sweetness spewed out of the throat.

Yuan Zhongxin drank heartbrokenly: "Wang Kuan!"

The man in black suddenly came back to his senses, he blew his whistle hastily, the whistle was soft and melodious, the herd stopped restless, but it was too late, he watched the two fall into the abyss.

The man in black jumped over the herd of beasts, rushed to the edge of the cliff with an anxious expression on his face, and looked down. He frowned and scolded himself angrily: "Why did you force people to jump off the cliff!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind the man in black: "You actually forced people to jump off a cliff! You are going to die!"

The man in black froze, turned his head to look, knew he was wrong, and said with a sneer, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."

The man slapped the man in black on the head, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Misunderstanding? I haven't had time to explain everything to you, but you have already treated them as enemies! When can you change your mind?" This impetuous temper!"

The man in black rubbed the back of his head aggrievedly: "I didn't expect this, I thought they were going to kill you, who knew—besides, Gu Li, I'm your cousin, how dare you So disrespectful to me?"

Gu Li narrowed his eyes: "You still say?"

The man in black shrank his neck and was so scared.

Gu Li was so enraged by the black clothes, he looked under the abyss, and said in an extremely bad tone: "What should we do now?"

The man in black rolled his eyes, and he smiled like a dog: "There is a black river at the bottom of this cliff. If you are lucky enough to fall into the water, you will be fine. I will go down to find them later."

Gu Li sighed helplessly, I hope so.
