The cub he picked up didn't come with an instruction manual

Xu Huo walked to the edge of the woods and looked out.

Entrance is a basin, surrounded by woods, and the outside of the woods is a gentle slope.

The center of the basin turned out to be a village, with fields, houses, and stone roads paved with bluestones. There were cattle and sheep grazing in the fields, and chickens and dogs barking among the stone houses. It was a paradise in a corner, quiet and beautiful.

The forest he was in at the moment was on the mountainside, and after leaving the forest and crossing the small river at the bottom of the mountain, he could reach the village.

The other side of the basin also caught his attention. The shape of the mountain over there was rather strange, like a sharp triangular cone rising into the sky, reaching high into the air, but it was suddenly cut off at a high place, without a sharp edge.

"Here..." Xu Huo stared blankly at the rural village, and murmured, "Is this the Wuman Valley?"

"That's right." The woman followed up and said calmly, "This is Wuman Valley."

"Are you from Wuman Valley?" Xu Huo turned to look at her.

The woman in front of her was in her twenties, with a clean face, wearing a dark blue plain dress with some ethnic lace on the skirt.

The woman turned her eyes from the village, and said lightly: "Yes."

Xu Huo hurriedly asked: "Can you help save my friend in the cave..."

The woman shook her head, "No, mangcao has limited hallucinatory effects, he will wake up naturally in half an hour at most, and now he is raging in the cave by destroying the spiritual root, he is the most dangerous one, it is better to stay away .”

Seeing what the woman said, she seemed to be familiar with Gui Ling, "But I'm worried that he will hurt me." Xu Huo was still worried.

Youqian floated over and persuaded: "No, the reason why he went crazy is to protect himself and not to hurt himself easily." It can think about it.

Xu Huo looked at the mountain wall worriedly, "What if the cave collapses?"

Wasn't he buried alive?

"That can't crush him to death." Youqian is very confident in Guiling.

The woman looked at the proud rich and frowned, "You two monsters acted so viciously, once you came in, you hurt us a lot, and Gu Nei will definitely punish you when the time comes."

"It's not my fault—" Youqian immediately floated aside with the big cock, and said in a low voice, "It's all those things that haven't been beaten."

The woman said coldly: "Hmph, do you really think that Wuman Valley is easy to get in? Do you think there are only those ordinary Zhiqi in the cave? The strongest Zhiqi hidden on the mountain wall has not come out. If they come out, It can crush you directly, and the reason why you came in so easily is not because Gu Nei didn't have intentions to deal with you."

If you have money, you feel wronged and drift away.

Xu Huo remembered that Zhiwan had said that Wumangu had predicted his arrival, and now that he was not strictly defended against his arrival, it meant that Gu Nei had goodwill towards him.

"Sorry, we are also protecting ourselves." Xu Huo asked politely, "What's your name?"

"I am the person from the valley to meet you." The woman said bluntly: "My name is Qi Qi, come with me into the valley..." as if to lead the way down the mountain.

Xu Huo looked at the mountain wall and didn't intend to leave.

Seeing that he didn't follow, Qi Qi turned her head and said in surprise: "What? Do you have to wait for him?"

Xu Huo remained motionless, but he understood clearly that he wanted to wait for the illusion of Jiu Ling to disappear.

The woman said helplessly: "Then wait for half an hour longer, but I don't want his team Mangcao to react so much." The woman's words were also a little surprised.

"He just can't get rid of his demons." Xu Huo looked at the thick fallen leaves on the ground, and sat down without any scruples.

"It's good to talk here." Qi Qi walked back, looked around, saw the surroundings were quiet, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to give me a big cock?"

"Big rooster?!" Xu Huo was surprised, and glanced at the big cock that Rich was carrying, "Are you a relative of Aunt Qi?"

Hearing that the big cock was going to be handed over, Rich reluctantly added a few vines to cover the big cock tightly, every bit of his eyes became sad.

"That's right." Qi Qi looked around vigilantly.

"Can you sell this chicken to me?" Youqian said aggrievedly, "I'll give you money..." It blinked and nodded its eyes, and asked Xu Huo shyly: "Xu Huo, give me some money."

"This chicken is not for sale." Qi Qi looked at Xu Huo, "Help me with something, and I will give you the rooster."

"Xu Huo promised her—" Youqian looked at Xu Huo pitifully, "I know you are a good person, you helped me, and I will definitely repay you in the future."

"You said help me?" Xu Huo suddenly looked at Youqian, "Then let me ask you, guilt is a matter of revenge, you already knew..."

"Oh, I don't know what you want us to do for you?" Youqian suddenly floated to Qi Qi's side, avoiding Xu Huo's questioning.

Xu Huo stared straight at it, turned his face away when you had money, and the dog's tail grass turned around, just refusing to face it.

Xu Huo understood clearly, and gave You Qian a hard look.

Youqian pretended not to see it, and pretended to be only interested in asking Qi Qi, "What can we help you with?"

"Help Aunt Qi steal something out of the valley."

"Huh?" Xu Huo was puzzled immediately: "Since you are in the valley, why didn't you help? Since Aunt Qi knew the way in, why didn't she steal it by herself? Also, who are you, Aunt Qi?"

"She can't come in, and I'm from Wuman Valley, so I can't openly betray the valley. I owe her a favor, so I promise her to bring you in. You need to do the stealing." Qi Qi said naturally, she I actually stayed out of it.

Xu Huowei wondered: "But I am an outsider, and the people in the valley will be wary of me."

"Because the ancestors predicted your arrival, you are allowed to come in, and you may be able to act casually in the valley."

Xu Huo was still unwilling, "Then, Wumangu has no ill intentions towards me, and it's even more inappropriate for me to steal their things?"

Seeing that Xu Huo was really hard to convince, Qi Qi softened her expression, "You can help her, her ancestors were originally born in the valley, but they were expelled from the valley because they obeyed the way of heaven. It's actually very pitiful."

According to Qi Qi, many years ago, there was a eunuch beside the emperor at that time. He was a very powerful mage with powerful magic power. Mangu refines the medicine of immortality.

Back then, Aunt Qi’s ancestors, in order to prevent the unnatural behavior of prolonging the emperor’s life, secretly replaced the medicinal materials. Although the emperor’s life was extended for nine years, he still died. In order to stop the war and give the other party an explanation, Aunt Qi's ancestors were expelled from the valley and handed over to the court.

"Maybe it's a scapegoat. Who knows what happened back then." Youqian expressed his opinion, and the vine was still protecting the big cock, begging: "Xu Huo, why don't you promise them, I want a cock .”

Xu Huo thought for a while and asked, "What exactly does Aunt Qi want us to steal?"

Qi Qi sighed, "She wants to find half of the elixir to prolong her husband's life. Alas, his husband is just an ordinary person. He has been with her for more than 30 years. He was diagnosed with cancer last year and underwent chemotherapy in the hospital many times. Seeing that it is going to die."

"Immortal medicine?" Xu Huo was surprised, "Is there really such a thing? Is it true that if you take it, you will not die?"

Qi Qi said firmly: "Of course there is. The medicine of immortality belongs to the treasure of Wuman Valley. If you eat one, you will not die, and if you eat half of it, you will be able to cure diseases. However, the medicine of immortality is never allowed to be rumored. It is hidden in..."

"Kacha—" There was a sound approaching.

Everyone raised their eyes and saw a handsome man standing at the entrance of the cave.

Qiu Zui's eyes were scarlet, and he glared angrily at Qi Qi who was beside Xu Huo.

"Blame...resentment?" Xu Huo stood up and was about to step forward.

"Puff—" Qiu Zui suddenly shot a flame at Qi Qi.

Qi Qi was startled, and instantly threw a brocade handkerchief, and the brocade handkerchief was thrown into the air in the other direction, like a frisbee, circling and flying in the forest, strangely, the flame was guided and followed closely.

"Go to the river." Qi Qi turned around and ran, the most urgent thing she said loudly: "Come with me."

Xu Huo glanced at Qiu Zui in confusion, stomped his feet helplessly, and hurriedly followed. The money was dangling, but followed quickly.

The few people were flying like flying, and ran directly down the mountain, and soon came to the river.

This small river is only about ten meters wide. There are many vines hanging from the big trees on both sides of the river. There are various knots on the vines. It seems that they are often used.

At this moment, Qiu Zui in the forest suddenly mobilized, his body was swift, he jumped up and down, and he chased him directly.

"Be careful that there are defenses in the river—" Qi Qi rushed to the river first, grabbed a vine and swung across, and fell to the opposite bank, "Come quickly."

Xu Huo looked at the calm river, turned his head and tried to stop him, "Jie Ling, wake up."

Qiu Zui didn't seem to hear it, and ran extremely fast, looking directly at Qi Qi with angry eyes.

"Cross the river first—" Youqian stretched out the vines, wrapped around Xu Huo, and hoisted him across the river.

"Ah?" Seeing that Xu Huo was taken away, he was furious with hatred and rushed straight into the river. The water was not deep, only reaching his waist.

Suddenly, streaks of lightning, like distorted electric snakes, struck towards Gui Ling!

"Chichi—" Qiu Zui trembled from the electric shock, and suddenly, his body sank suddenly, as if he was dragged down by something.

"Guiling?" Xu Huo raised his eyebrows.

"Clatter——" Qiu Zui completely sank into the water.

"It's okay, things underwater are not fatal." Qi Qi comforted her.

The surface of the water suddenly vibrated violently, and the amplitude became larger and larger.

"Boom—" There was a loud noise, and a huge electric eel about ten meters long floated on the surface of the water. It had no breath, and its long body was wrapped in a terrifying black breath. Suddenly, the entire electric eel turned into ashes. It dissipated in the water, as if it had melted.

"How dare he..." Qi Qi's heartbroken words were incomplete, "That's..."

"Gulu Gulu." A head popped out, Qiu Zui stared at Qi Qi with scarlet eyes, and slowly walked out of the water.

Step by step, getting closer and closer, the dangerous atmosphere spread.

"Guiling!"

Qiu Zui froze for a moment, and his scarlet eyes shifted little by little to Xu Huo. He stared at Xu Huo intently, trying to discern.

"Guiling, I'm brother." Xu Huo was looking at him.

He also stared blankly at Xu Huo, and without stopping, he slowly went ashore and came to the front of Xu Huo.

"Come here!" Xu Huo slowly stretched out his hand towards him.

"Ah?" Qiu Zui turned his face away, his scarlet eyes were dodging in fear.

"Guiling—" Xu Huo walked up to him slowly, "I'm brother!"

Qiu Zui turned his head slowly, looking at Xu Huo with a relaxed expression.

Xu Huo took the opportunity to grab his hand, which was cold without any warmth.

"Whoosh—" Xu Huo drew out a streak of true energy and cut through the fingers of the other hand. He raised his hand and handed the bleeding finger to Qiu Zui's mouth. Qiu Zui opened his mouth meekly, sucking Fingers and eyes kept staring at Xu Huo, and the space and time seemed to be frozen at this moment.

Slowly, hatred's eyes regained clarity, "Brother—" he blushed and looked away.

"Should you explain it to me?" Xu Huo suddenly turned cold.
