Chapter 252 Pioneer

The woods are full of sunshine, and there are birds and flowers everywhere. linger here, Jiang Hanye suddenly feels that Jin Danzi is actually very happy, at least he has such a beautiful hometown.

"Master, now we are waiting for the final action." Jin Danzi stood in front of Jiang Hanye with his staff in his arms. His face pretended to be deep. In fact, Jin Danzi was not a deep person at all.

"Hmm." Jiang Hanye hummed. They are now sitting on the branch at the top of a big tree, where their vision is very wide and they can see far away.

"Master, this time, no matter where you go, I will follow you." Jin Danzi said.

If this sentence came from Linger's mouth, Jiang Hanye would feel that it was relatively normal, but it came from Jin Danzi's mouth, so he frowned and looked at him sideways: "Why?"

"Exercise." Jin Danzi said, "Although I am your servant, I am at least a king in our Jin Danzi family. One day when I come back, people ask me, 'What have you learned and seen outside?' If I can't answer, how bad it is! Moreover, this time the four of us should never be separated again..." In fact, Jin Danzi didn't say a word in his heart: "Since I separated from you, I feel that the master is better to me. At least you won't dislike me."

"Hmm." Jiang Hanye was silent for a moment and agreed.

"Really?" Jin Danzi was happy and jumped up. He forgot that he was on the tree and on the top of the tree. He almost fell down. Fortunately, Jiang Hanye picked him up.

"Really." Jiang Hanye said, "Did I lie to you?"

"Hey!" Jin Danzi smiled.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please come here!" Below them, in the tree house half the waist of the tree, a servant came out and was standing on the platform and shouting.

"What's the matter?" Jin Danzi also pulled his throat and shouted.

"The elder has made some preparations and would like to ask you to correct it." The servant said.

"I know." Jin Danzi stood up, lifted his trousers, and then bowed to Jiang Hanye and went down carefully.

Jiang Hanye looked down at Jin Danzi's gradually smaller back and began to have a strong interest in this short but very intelligent ethnic group. Their ethnic group seems to be of hierarchical, but as the king's golden elixir, he has no high momentum as a human emperor in front of those subordinates. On the contrary, he feels that being a king here is very tied, and many things have to be decided by the members of the group themselves. In fact, this is a good thing, at least Jiang That's what I think of the cold night.

The wait was long, and Jiang Hanye even dozed off in the warm sunshine until Linger climbed up and asked him to have lunch.

Lunch is eaten with the elders, and Linger has been working in the kitchen these days. This cute, lively and kind girl is very adaptable. The day after she came here, she made a few friends and wandered around with the female Jin Danzi every day. When it was time to cook, she went to the kitchen to help cook. By the way, although Jin Danzi is family-based, they cook in a large kitchen, and the women in each family take turns to help cook, which looks like a happy big family.

There are obvious traces of Ling'er in the food, because many of them are loved by Jiang Hanye, such as braised chicken, such as braised pig's feet. In order to get these, Jin Danzi took little effort. After all, they only like to eat fish and fruits.

"Gentlemen, today is the first time we have a formal dinner with my best friend, Jiang Hanye Young Man. Come on, let's toast him together!" Jin Danzi stood up with a glass at the front of the meal and said.

Driven by Jin Danzi Road, all the people raised their glasses and said to Jiang Hanye, "To you!" Jin Danzi's drinking capacity is not good, which is clearly reflected in Jin Danzi.

Although it was difficult to be merciful, Jiang Hanye also stood up and raised his glasses to clink glasses with everyone.

After a glass of wine, the Jin Danzi's box was opened, or to be precise, the Jin Danzi's box was opened. Everyone talked about the matter between the turtle and the Guluo River, which is nothing more than its exact location and how to deal with it. After all, it is the guardian beast guarding Luoshu, which is not so easy to deal with.

"Jiang Shaoxia." At this time, the oldest elder stood up on crutches and bowed to Jiang Hanye, and then said, "The reason why we all agreed to go to Luo Shu is that we have thought about the whole thing before. We feel that if the world is over, our Jindanzi family will never exist alone. Compared with justice, I They are still small."

"Thank you very much!" Jiang Hanye really felt that the golden elixirs were very open-minded and great, at least they had the spirit of dedication and sacrifice.

"However, the turtle is our spirit beast, at least we think so. Can you show mercy and not hurt it?" The old man continued.

So that's it. Jiang Hanye was relieved. He thought something had changed.

"Hehe, I will promise you. In fact, even if I don't promise you, I don't think I will be more powerful between me and the turtle. Jiang Hanye smiled.

"This is for you." The old man politely saluted his gratitude, and then took out a piccolo from his sleeve. The piccolo is white and looks like jade or ivory, with scratches on it, which looks very vicissitudes.

"What is this?" Jiang Hanye asked.

"This is the flute that summons the turtle." The old man said.

"Yes, it is said that our ancestors sacrificed the turtle in this way. In fact, it is not a sacrifice. Every 60 years or so, we will prepare some good fish and fruits, then go somewhere to play the flute, then kowtow, pray and so on, and then leave." Jin Danzi interrupted, "They said that this flute can summon the turtle, but I don't see it." He squeezed his lips and shook his head.

Jin Danzi's life expectancy is very long. Those under the age of 50 are teenagers here, and those under the age of 30 are children (their childhood is too long), so although Jin Danzi is hundreds of years old, he is still young in this ethnic group. Perhaps because of his youth, many of his ideas and practices are more radical, and his attitude towards things is more open-minded than those old men.

"Oh! So..." Jiang Hanye stretched out his hand and took the flute politely with both hands. The flute is very heavy and carved from ivory. At first, it was cold in the hand, but it soon gave rise to a warm feeling.

"After midnight today, we will take you to the place of sacrifice, and the rest can only be done by yourself. Our Highness can't accompany you because of race..." The old man's tone was a little sorry.

"It doesn't matter. Jiang Hanye is very grateful for your care of us and what you have done these days." Jiang Hanye said, "I will definitely not hurt the turtle this time. Please rest assured."

After Jiang Hanye repeatedly promised, the elders nodded with a smile, as if they were relieved.

......

"Master, are you really not taking me?" Linger pouted and looked disappointed.

Jiang Hanye is busy packing up and going to the cold underground. He has a lot of things to prepare, such as eating and drinking, such as oil lamps and fire folds.

"Linger, it won't be too long this time. I'll be back soon, so you don't need to go with me. And it's late at night when you leave, and you have just begun to practice. Late at night is the best time for you to meditate. You still have to stay here obediently. Jiang Hanye Road.

After returning from the demon world, his patience has improved a lot. Maybe if he has experienced more, he will really become more mature.

Although Linger wanted to follow, she was still rejected after many requests. She had no choice but to give up, but kept telling her, "Master, please be careful. In the underground, it is a turtle and a guardian beast, which sounds terrible..."

"Okay, I know. You just go to rest, have a good rest, eat, drink and practice well. This is your most important task at present." Jiang Hanye said to Linger as if he had told his little sister.

"It's not true. There is always only one most important thing for Linger!" After saying this, Linger ran back to her room.

The time agreed with Jin Danzi soon came. Two young Jin Danzi was ordered to pick him up. After Jiang Hanye closed the door, he followed him with Xuanyuan Sword. To be honest, he is not used to using a sword. He has been using a Brahma ruler for five or six years and has been at his hands. Now he has lost it suddenly. Jiang Hanye has been sad for a long time, but his nature is to stuff things in his stomach. No matter how sad he is, he will not tell anyone.

He walked down from his residence and came to the ground, where the golden elixirs gathered in a circle and waited for him for him for a long time.

"So you have arrived a long time ago." Jiang Hanye said with a little guilt, "I'm sorry I'm late."

"No, no, don't say that." An elder shook his head in a hurry, "You are our distinguished guest. You are not late. What's more, we are used to doing everything early, so please don't mind. If you are ready, please follow me."

All Jin Danzi knelt down except the elder. They faced the ground and muttered something devoutly. Because they spoke the ancient Jindanzi language, Jiang Hanye couldn't understand it at all. He looked around and saw that there was no Jin Danzi in the crowd. Where did this guy go at this critical moment?

The elder has started to walk to the depths of the woods. Jiang Hanye can't talk about it anymore. He followed closely with the Xuanyuan sword.

The night in the forest was still cold, and a breeze came to my face, with the strong chill of Kunlun Snow Mountain.

Jiang Hanye stepped on the soft fallen leaves and quietly followed the elder. The elder was silent and said nothing along the way. The two of them walked for about half an hour and came to a fork in the road.

There are paths in the forest where the Jin Danzi live, but most of the time they like to take shortcuts, so several of the forest paths and mountains are also covered with fallen leaves. When they walked here, they found a relatively complete fork in the cold night.

This is a three-way road leading to the western Jindanzi settlement, the back and the east respectively. There is a huge stone in the northwest of the fork road. The stone is more than one foot high, more than three feet wide and more than three feet thick. It is so black and squatting on the ground, like a giant beast hunting at night.

"Jiang Shaoxia, please follow me." The elder stood at the fork in the road and turned back to Jiang Hanye.

The elder is not very old. He is the younger of the ten elders. He is shorter than Jin Danzi, but he is very flexible. His whole body is wrapped in a gray robe. When he walks, he can't see his footsteps moving at all.

Jiang Hanye nodded and followed. The two of them turned behind the stone. At this time, a figure jumped out of the shadow and startled Jiang Hanye. He instinctively wanted to draw his sword, and the shadow shouted anxiously, "Master, don't be afraid, it's me!"

"Jin Danzi?" Jiang Hanye fixed his eyes and found that the guy was actually Jin Danzi. He couldn't help but say, "Aren't you can't come? Why are you here?"

"Hey!" Jin Danzi walked to the elder and saluted him, "Thank you, uncle!"

"Cough, don't thank me. I don't know whether it's right or wrong." The elder turned red and coughed awkwardly.

"I don't care, thank you very much!" Jin Danzi said quite unreasonally.

"Jin Danzi, are you embarrassing the old man again?" Jiang Hanye frowned and asked.

"No!" Jin Danzi waved his hand in a hurry. He was afraid of Jiang Hanye. "Actually, I'm worried. After all, this is my territory. Anyway, I have to accompany you on this trip, right?"

Jiang Hanye didn't say anything. After all, he has come to this point.

Beyond the boulder, there is a gurgling stream, which makes a light sound in the dark night, flowing slowly from west to east.

"That's it." The elder pointed to the stream and said to Jiang Hanye, "Wang Shang, Jiang Shaoxia, we usually sacrifice here."

"What? Isn't it underground?" Jin Danzi asked with some surprise.

"In the past 100 years, strange changes have taken place here. Some of the terrain have fluctuated, and the place where we used to offer sacrifices has been flooded." The elder said, "From here, follow the stream to the east, and there will be a cave about a few miles away. After entering the cave, walk along the stream, and you will soon find the entrance to the underground."

"Aren't you with us?" Jin Danzi asked strangely again.

The elder shook his head slowly: "I can't."

"Why?" Jiang Hanye has seen the embarrassed look on the elder's face.

"There are terrible guys in this cave." The elder blushed and said, "I'm afraid..."

He is quite honest. Maybe Jin Danzi has always been timid, but they never avoid their shortcomings.

"A terrible guy? Isn't it just a turtle?" Jin Danzi asked strangely.

"Alas, Wang Shang, you are still too young to know much about some things." The elder said, "The reason why we refused to let Jiang Shaoxia enter the underground river before is that in addition to not wanting to disturb Lord Xuangui, there is another secret, which is the terrible monster in this cave."

"Why don't I know?" Jin Danzi frowned and said, "At least I have lived here for more than 200 years, okay?"

"Actually, it was like this. Not long ago, about three months, a group of guys came here, and then several left, and the rest did not come out of it. During those days, we often heard strange sounds coming from here... This happened not long ago, so Wang Shang I don't know." The elder said.

"In that case, you'd better go back quickly. Jin Danzi, you have to go back with the elders. Jiang Hanye ordered.

Jin Danzi hesitated and could see that he was afraid, but in the end, his loyalty to Jiang Hanye still overshadowed his panic about unknown monsters. Jin Danzi looked at Jiang Hanye and shook his head resolutely. He said to the elder, "Uncle, go back quickly. What's going on will soon be known. "

"Wang Shang, won't you come with me?" Presbyterian Road.

"Since I am the king, I naturally have the responsibility to find out what happened here!" Jin Danzi held his head high and said with high spirits.

The elder's excited tears flashed, and he bowed and said, "King, you have grown up!"

Jiang Hanye was made to laugh and cry by the dialogue between the two Jin Danzi. In fact, in his eyes, Jin Danzi has been an old man for a long time, but now when he hears such strange words, it is no wonder that he feels a little strange and funny.

After the elder left alone, Jiang Hanye walked along the stream accompanied by Jin Danzi.

"Master, this stream is called Jinxi, which is the water source of our family. Sometimes it freezes. When it freezes, we will come here to skate." Jin Danzi kept introducing along the way.

"It seems that you are living a happy life. Why did you leave your hometown at the beginning?" Jiang Hanye did not dislike Jin Danzi's wordiness this time. In fact, it's actually good to have such a partner on the journey. At least people won't feel boring and depressed.

"Hometown is good, but the place is too small." Jin Danzi said, "I've always wanted to know what the outside world is like, so I came out by myself."

"Do you know now?" Jiang Hanye laughed.

Jin Danzi frowned: "Well, now I know that the outside world is not fun at all."

"Then don't come back with me this time." Jiang Hanye said, "People here need you."

"No." Jin Danzi shook his head and said, "One day is the Lord, the Lord for life. Master, I would like to travel around the world with you. It's good to see a lot of knowledge. There is a lack of such pioneers in our ethnic group."
