Chapter 1674 Suspicions Everywhere, Strange Old Man in the Mountains
Xiao Yi was surprised after hearing what the old man said.
"You just said that you entered the Fanxing Mountains at the age of seventeen?" Xiao Yi asked with a slightly condensed expression.
Although he was sure that he heard correctly, he still wanted to ask again.
The old man said: "Yes, seventeen years old is the most beautiful time in life, but the old man was favored by the Zhou family and became the mountain guardian here. This treatment lasted more than seven thousand years. Zhou Shenzun had strict orders, We, the mountain guards, are not allowed to go out. Now that we have finally waited for Zhou Shenzun to die, we didn’t expect that the Zhou family is still not finished, and we, the mountain guards, have to continue to be trapped in this mountain range."
"Master, please, for the sake of how pitiful I am, please don't take my life! I still want to save my life and go out to see the outside world!"
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said: "Okay, as long as you are honest enough, I will never hurt your life. But if you are not honest, don't blame my knife for being too ruthless."
The old man said hurriedly: "Don't worry, I will be honest."
"Then put on your clothes and lead the way!" Xiao Yi said lightly.
But in his heart, he was quite shocked.
Although his spirit couldn't sense the old man's qualifications, no matter how he looked at the old man, he didn't look like a genius.
But more than seven thousand years ago, he was planted with a mark by Zhou Li, and within a thousand years, he quickly became a god king!
What kind of mark is this that can make people's cultivation speed become so terrifying?
If an ordinary person can become a god king after a thousand years of cultivation, he will definitely be a genius among geniuses! Otherwise, it would be an unparalleled opportunity!
And this old man is just a mountain guard.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but wonder, was it really just this mountain range that Zhou Li wanted them to guard this time? If so, why were they not allowed to leave this mountain range for seven thousand years?
Also, if Zhou Li's mark could really have such a terrifying effect, why didn't he use it in large quantities?
If used in large quantities, wouldn't the Zhou family be able to create countless god kings?
But as far as he knew, the number of divine kings in the Zhou family was no different from that of other divine clans, only a few dozen in total.
All this makes people wonder.
But Xiao Yi believes that the mountain guard in front of him cannot answer these questions for him.
But Xiao Yi's top priority right now is to find Doctor Feng, so he has no intention of spending time exploring the secrets of the Fanxing Mountains.
After the old man put on his silver clothes, Xiao Yi asked him to lead the way.
The old man had a bitter look on his face and was very reluctant in his heart, but with the knife hanging above his head, he could only move forward bravely.
The two of them moved forward, one behind the other, through the mountains.
But those three statues were still hidden in the void, and did not easily enter the mountains.
After a thousand miles, the old man stopped.
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows lightly: "What's wrong? Have you found her?"
The old man said awkwardly: "No, the left side ahead is the area guarded by Yang Yao. Once we pass by, he will definitely find us. But in the center of the mountain range, there are a large number of formations blocking it. Once the formations are accidentally touched, It will still alert others. So, can you sneak up behind Yang Yao and knock him out like you did before? That way, he won't find us."
Xiao Yi curled his lips and said, "I knocked him unconscious, so he doesn't know it was you who led me, right?"
The old man laughed dryly and said: "I really can't hide anything from you. Ahem, but I really just want to live, and I don't have any bad intentions towards you."
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes: "It's simple, I just go over and kill him."
The old man said hurriedly: "Don't say goodbye, just knock him out. We mountain guards are all hard-working people. We all hope that one day we can walk out of this mountain range. If you kill Yang Yao, old man Even if I can get out for the rest of my life, won’t I have to live with guilt?”
Xiao Yi said disdainfully: "I didn't expect that you would still maintain the kindness you had when you were seventeen!"
The old man shook his head and said: "I'm not kind, I'm just sharing the same destiny and showing compassion to each other."
"Having compassion in your heart means that your humanity has not been extinguished." Xiao Yi said lightly, "I will follow your instructions and knock him out. Just stand here and don't move. If you dare to escape, be careful of the big knife on my shoulder."
Xiao Yi put the Kuangrhin Wanjiao on his shoulder and glared at the old man fiercely.
The old man said hurriedly: "I know that you are not an ordinary person, so I never dare to take any chances."
Xiao Yi nodded: "This is the best."
Immediately, Xiao Yi quietly entered the area guarded by Yang Yao.
Although his soul couldn't sense the aura, Yang Yao couldn't sense the aura on his body either.
Not long after, Xiao Yi found an old man sleeping on his back on a big rock.
The snoring was quite loud, and it was difficult for Xiao Yi not to notice him.
The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth twitched. Doctor Feng had already entered the Star Mountains. How big does this old man named Yang Yao have to dare to sleep?
Xiao Yi walked over quietly and stood beside the old man.
Until this moment, the old man did not wake up...
Xiao Yi was really speechless.
I can't look at people this week. Why did I find such a group of irresponsible people to guard the Starry Mountains?
One of them confessed everything directly, while the other, despite the incoming enemy, still slept soundly without any alertness...
Isn’t this Zhou Li known as the God of Guanyu? Can you observe the universe, but not people?
Or is it that Zhou Li chose these people deliberately?
But why?
It's really hard for Xiao Yi to figure it out.
Xiao Yi reached out and patted Yang Yao's face.
Yang Yao was still snoring and sleeping.
Xiao Yi's face trembled, and he slapped his mouth with his backhand...
With a crackling sound, Yang Yao was knocked away from the big stone.
Yang Yao flew from the stone to the ground and jumped up in shock. He closed his eyes tightly and said to Xiao Yi in shock: "Master Feng, I don't know anything and I haven't seen anything. You are busy." As for your business, just pretend that I don’t exist, okay? I just ask you not to kill me!"
Xiao Yi's eyebrows darkened.
It turned out that Yang Yao was just pretending to be asleep, and he thought he was Doctor Feng.
Xiao Yi hummed: "Open your eyes and take a look."
"Uh, man?" Yang Yao opened his eyes suspiciously, and when he saw Xiao Yi, his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Which brat came to the Star Mountains to die? Get out of here quickly, or don't blame me for beating you!" When Yang Yao saw that the man in front of him was still a young man, he immediately became hardened.
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "I slapped you in the mouth, and you still let me leave? Are all the mountain guards of the Fanxing Mountains so kind?"
Yang Yao snorted: "Although you are ignorant and rude, you are young after all, and I won't care about you. Little guy, cherish your youth, and don't run into places you shouldn't set foot on! While Mr. Zhou is here, If you don’t find it, you should leave quickly! Otherwise, you will be like us old men and never get out of this mountain range.”
Xiao Yi's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't expect that Yang Yao was quite fond of children.
