Chapter 219: The lightning-struck tree in Shicun, the young Emperor Huang Tian!
An opportunity not to be missed!
Lin Fan's thoughts raced.
Shi Qi's heart was also shocked like thunder, and it took him a long time to calm down.
"This matter... is a secret even within the clan. Those who know about it have all sworn an oath not to tell anyone else. How could he know about it?!"
Thinking of that rainy night.
Thinking of the 'brother' who cried and yelled about the pain after his chest was cut open...
He couldn't help but think, "Could it be that Lin Fan's pupil technique just now can really see through the false and the real?"
For the first time, he doubted himself, or rather, doubted his double pupils.
What I saw was clearly 'fake'!
But the other party could clearly see through his strengths and weaknesses. What went wrong?
Could it be that there is someone in this world whose double pupils cannot see through?
"No, there is no such possibility!"
Shi Qi was confident that there was nothing in this world that could not be seen through by his double pupils.
"I think there is another hidden story, but no matter what, this person should not be underestimated."
For a moment, he almost couldn't help but kill Lin Fan immediately, but he held back. Since the other party was so calm and dared to say this, he must have been prepared.
What's more, he is just a scarecrow clone, and his original body is still far away.
Even if the scarecrow is killed, the original body will have enough time to spread the news...
This matter is not good for me.
It will affect your natural reputation as the supreme being and make you despised by others.
Shi Qi's mind raced, but he gradually calmed down and said, "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Really?"
Lin Fan spoke slowly and unhurriedly.
But I already felt confident in my heart.
Your double pupils are indeed amazing. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, you already have such strength and mentality. It can be called abnormal, but after all, you are still a little young~
I today~
I’ve got you figured out!
"snort."
"Playing tricks."
Shi Qi flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
He didn't want to say more.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "No thanks."
"Whether you really don't know or are pretending not to know is not important."
"Anyway, you will know it later."
Shi Qi said nothing and walked away quickly.
So far, it seems that this crisis has been overcome smoothly, without even mobilizing a single soldier or taking any action.
After Lin Fan interrupted her, Long Aojiao's anger disappeared a lot. She didn't even hit Shi Qi angrily. Instead, she was very curious and asked, "What did you mean by that sentence just now?"
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "After fooling the person with double pupils, I have to fool her again..."
Just getting ready to fool you.
But Long Aojiao continued, "What do you mean by double pupils are the path to invincibility?"
"What? Do you think that I am not as good as a person with double pupils?"
"Stop for me, girl!"
"Speak clearly!"
Lin Fan was stunned: "(O_O)???!"
He's numb!
This is different from what I thought!
Is your focus too distorted?
If you are a normal person, you should ask what the second half of the sentence means, "Why do you need to borrow someone else's bones?" But you care about the first half of the sentence? Even if you are the template of Long Aotian...
Huh? Wait!
In fact, caring about the first half of the sentence is more in line with women's mentality, right?
Or, is it more in line with Long Aojiao?
Lin Fan suddenly realized~
She is Long Aojiao!
How can we judge it with ordinary people's eyes?
You can't look at her as Long Aotian!
Because...the current Long Aojiao is really Long Aojiao~!
hiss!!!
He took a deep look at Long Aojiao and thought to himself, "Aojiao, Aojiao, wow~ You are done, Aojiao, you have really become a woman, not only your body, but also your way of thinking..."
"what's on your mind?!"
Long Aojiao snorted coldly, indicating that she was not so easy to fool: "How do you want to deceive me?"
"I'm telling you, don't even think about it!"
"If you don't tell the truth, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
"explain!"
"Do you think that I am not as good as that person with broken double pupils?"
“···”
Lin Fan rolled his eyes: "No."
“You’re the fattest.”
“?!”
"How dare you say that I'm fat?!"
Long Aojiao suddenly became anxious: "Nonsense, who can match my figure?"
"Looking back, I also had countless women, but I couldn't train even one who could compete with me. How dare you say that I'm fat? You you you..."
Lin Fan turned and left.
What's the point of talking to such a tsundere?
explain?
That's even more troublesome.
Instead of communicating normally with Long Aojiao, it is better to chat with Green Tea Sister.
In short, the deception is over.
"Hey? Wait, stop, where on earth am I fat?!"
“···”
"wrong!"
"Are you changing the subject?!"
“Don’t run!”
“···”
However.
No matter how Long Aojiao shouted or tried to stop him, Lin Fan still slipped away.
After entering Lanyue Palace, the gate was closed and a sign indicating retreat was hung high.
Long Aojiao's defense was broken immediately and she was so angry that she stomped her feet.
"Eh?! It seems there's something else!"
"By the way, you were just a scarecrow all along? You used the same tactics as that idiot Fan Jianqiang? Then where is your real self? Where is your real self?"
"How dare you fool me and say I'm fat?"
"Call your true self here to fight with me!"
"Look at me peeing on your head!"
She went wild outside the gate of Lanyue Palace.
Someone was passing by from a distance, saw this scene, and quickly dodged away~
Except for those few people, no one else knows Long Aojiao's true identity.
I thought this guy was flirting with our own sect leader.
But I don't know~
Sect Leader Lin felt that he was not worthy of the experience and chose to hide. If he couldn't afford to provoke others, could he not hide away?
As soon as the gate of Lanyue Palace was closed, the formation was activated, and the retreat sign was hung high, he began to think about the matter of the person with double pupils and the template of Emperor Huangtian.
"Judging from the performance of the pupil, the prototype of the Emperor of Desolate Heaven should have appeared."
"Carrying the supreme bone."
“I just don’t know whether the bones have been dug out and transplanted.”
"But no matter what, at least one thing is certain."
"As long as we 'follow' the person with double pupils, we can find some clues."
"But tracking a person with double pupils is really a bit outrageous."
In Lin Fan's opinion, this was no different from Captain America trying to strangle a robot with his bare hands, or Danzo using a kunai to knock out Susanoo. Unless he had lost his mind, it would be impossible. He himself could not do such a thing.
Tracking with the abnormal pupil power of those with double pupils?
Follow a ghost!
"But fortunately, I have the Eightfold Mirror Technique~"
"There's nothing wrong with observing from a distance."
"It doesn't matter if he notices some clues."
Lin Fan was not in a hurry and activated the 'Eight Times Mirror Technique'.
But in order to prevent accidents, he did not look closely, but just "hung" from a distance. At first glance, Shi Qi's figure was just a "small dot".
now.
Shi Qi is extremely fast.
In just a few moments, he had run tens of thousands of miles.
Lin Fan was neither hurried nor slow, just watching and waiting quietly.
I want to know the ethnic group and 'identity'.
Only then can we proceed to the next step.
"It seems that he didn't move much. He probably didn't notice my spying?"
"But you are right. Double pupils are indeed abnormal and can see through almost everything. But that also refers to things that ordinary cultivators cannot see through, not that they are truly 'invincible'."
"My eight-fold mirror technique is not an illusion, and I am observing from such a long distance. He is only thirteen or fourteen years old. If he can even detect something unusual, then his double pupils are too abnormal."
"There's no need to play with other talents, right?"
Lin Fan is very patient.
The annual crisis is over and there is plenty of time.
"In a word, I have the upper hand."
"I hope I can find it."
"The template of Emperor Huang Tian. It's exciting just thinking about it."
“···”
after a while.
Lin Fan looked at the vast mansion and the numerous clan buildings in the Eightfold Mirror Technique and raised his eyebrows slightly: "The Stone Clan, one of the three immortal ancient clans in the Northeast Region?"
"I should have thought of that earlier."
"Only with this surname can these perverts be born, right?"
In fact, the four major surnames in fantasy have always been controversial.
Among them, Xiao, Lin and Ye are relatively stable.
Only this 'stone'.
Because, in fact, there are not many protagonists with the surname Shi. If we talk about one of the four major surnames, judging from the number of people, Shi is not qualified.
But the problem is, there is Emperor Huang Tian~!
He alone has brought this surname to such a height that no one can get around it.
Just like what Emperor Huang Tian said, 'I alone am a member of the imperial clan'.
In Lin Fan's opinion, it is...Emperor Huang Tian alone can make the Shi family one of the four major family names in fantasy online novels!
"But I didn't expect that their background in Xianwu Continent would be so high..."
In the original novel, although the Stone Clan is strong, they can only be said to be just okay.
But the Stone Clan he had to face was one of the immortal ancient clans.
One of the top four forces in the Northeast Region! The first one is still the Holy Land.
In other words, leaving aside the holy land, the Stone Clan is among the top three in the Northeast Region!
The best among the top-notch forces!
"We must handle this with caution!"
"But~"
"Since your last name is Shi, then I know how to proceed. After all, I have read so many novels!"
He immediately took out the jade talisman to contact Qin Yu.
"Master, do you have any instructions?"
"There is something."
"Does our Jinyiwei have any personnel in the Northeast Region?"
"Master, the Jinyiwei have already set foot in the Northeast Region. Although there are not many of them, they still have some manpower. But if it is something too secretive, I am afraid..."
"It doesn't matter. It would be great if you can find it out. But if you can't, there's no need to worry."
Lin Fan pondered and said, "Tell them to find out about the Stone Clan's ancestral land in private. Don't make any noise, and don't let the Stone Clan find out."
"It would be best if I could find out."
"If you can't find out, don't worry, just let me know."
"Yes, Master, I will arrange it right away."
After ending the communication, Qin Yu immediately started working on the matter.
He and Xu Fenglai are both very busy now.
Xu Fenglai stopped pretending, so naturally he... didn't need to pretend anymore.
Instead, he tried his best to help his father to conquer the new territory and build a new home.
The Four Directions Immortal Dynasties have already given up completely.
The Jinyiwei headquarters has naturally also moved here.
······
“如果我没猜错的话，石族祖地并不算太过隐秘，应该不难打听到才是。”
林凡摸着下巴，微微沉思：“如果能打听到，我就过去走一趟。”
“若是打听不到···”
“我还得走一趟。”
“嗯？！”
“不对啊！”
“那我等什么？”
“走着！”
反正都要过去。
过去之后，一旦有了消息便可立刻行动，就算没消息，也可自己打听不是？
事不宜迟，早去早好。
叫来诸位长老、弟子，吩咐一番之后，林凡准备起身。
但萧灵儿却追了上来。
“有事？”
看向自己这位乖巧懂事，且越发亭亭玉立的大弟子，林凡一时间也是有些唏嘘，数年过去，当初的瘦弱小丫头，如今，已成为可独当一面的强者了。
“师尊，弟子的伤势已然完全符恢复。”
萧灵儿颇有那么一丝丝扭捏，道：“弟子想···”
“再过些时日，准备一番后，便前往西域。”
“哦？！”林凡并不算意外。
“嗯！”
萧灵儿点头，道：“不瞒师尊，其实弟子还有一位老师···”
对其他人，她或许还会隐瞒，但在林凡面前，她总觉得自己没有半点秘密，简直比重瞳者还要‘重瞳者’。
且在她看来，林凡早已知晓此事，自然也没有瞒的必要。
而林凡轻轻点头：“继续说。”
他也没装。
当初既然将《炎帝》交给萧灵儿，就想过会有这么一天。
装什么‘惊讶’？太假。
“果然瞒不过师尊。”
萧灵儿无奈一笑：“此番日月仙朝一战，老师她老人家亦是拼尽了全力，陷入沉睡，而此行，收获颇丰。”
“不但有第八境大能的尸体，可为师尊复活肉身做准备，还寻到一些所需材料···”
“只是目前，还缺两位主料。”
“其中之一，便在西域。”
“在西域？”
林凡追问：“是什么？”
“菩提果。”
“菩提果···”
脑海中，与菩提果有关的信息一闪而逝，林凡微微皱眉：“西域大乘佛教特产仙药菩提树之果？”
“是。”
“想弄到这东西，可不容易。”林凡微微沉吟。
“但···弟子总要一试。”
“理应如此。”
林凡没有阻止，又问：“何时出发？”
“暂且还不确定，还需要一些准备，原本想着准备妥当之后再告诉师尊，但如今师尊将要远行，且不知何时归来，弟子便想着先告诉师尊，也免师尊日后担心。”
萧灵儿考虑的颇为全面。
这种事还是当面说为好。
若是到时候林凡没回来，在传音玉符中，未必能说的清楚。
且平白让师尊担心，多不好？
“你有心了。”
林凡思索片刻后，道：“这样吧，我办完事后尽快回来，你也无需太急，西域那边···为师多少有那么一丁点儿人脉。”
“虽然不知能否用的上，但却可以一试。”
“若是他愿意帮忙，想弄到一枚菩提果，未必会太难。”
“这···”
“会否太过麻烦师尊？”
“傻孩子。”
林凡哑然失笑：“没听过一句话么？一日为师终身为父。”
“我倒不想当你父亲，但我做师尊的都不帮你，谁帮你？”
“何况，你为宗门、为为师出力之时，何尝有过推辞？”
“回去吧，好好准备，努力修炼，待为师归来，咱们一同前往西域。”
“是，师尊！”
萧灵儿脆生生回应，心头感动异常。
虽与自己的计划有些差别，但却也不错。
人脉很重要！
再则，让她去西域搞菩提果···她目前还真没任何头绪，原本打算过去之后再慢慢想办法，但有师尊相助，自然更好一些。
“老师，您放心。”
看着林凡离去的背影，萧灵儿红唇微抿，自语道：“我一定会让您复活，重现人间。”
“何况，我还有师尊相助。”
“定能成功！”
“还有那位素未蒙面的‘好师姐’，或许，无需太久，咱们便会见面。”
······
石族，族地深处。
石启抚摸胸口，他能感受到，那里有一块骨，一块已与自己融为一体的骨！
全身的神性、精华，都在朝这块骨汇聚。
滋养着它！
而它也极为强横，有着惊人的力量，几乎不输于重瞳。
“重瞳本是无敌路，何须再借他人骨？”
石启喃呢着，神色接连变化。
但很快，他一声冷哼，自语道：“我不信你能看穿未来，那是连重瞳目前都无法涉及的领域！”
“重瞳无敌，至尊骨同样是至尊！”
“我身负重瞳与至尊骨，终将成为旷古烁今、震天动地、横推域内外的最强至尊，这一世，我石启之名，将烙印于诸天万道之上，终为无数人顶礼膜拜！”
他抛开心中杂念，不再受任何影响，随即开口：“来人！”
嗡。
一道身影悄无声息浮现。
石启却早已习以为常，问道：“我那弟弟，可有变故？”
“不曾有什么变故。”
“只是···似乎有一只脚，有些跛了。”
“哦？”
“那便继续盯着。”
“是！”
“···”
······
东北域。
某凡人城池酒肆中，林凡自斟自饮，有些唏嘘。
“打听到一个石族祖地，但却并非大荒之中的山村，而是被石族修缮过多次，一直经营的祖地？”
“看来，那是第二祖地了。”
“最终祖地，还得找。”
“真是期待呢。”
“与你见面的那一日，幼年‘荒天帝’，只是不知，现在的你，是哪种模样，又是否已到祖地？”
“亦或是，已成为那个最爱喝兽奶的吃货孩童？”
想到这里，林凡不由微微一笑。
但随即，他却有些沉默。
荒天帝···
生在当世，他这一生，比谁都要难，都要苦，需要他一人，独断万古啊！
荒天帝的一生究竟有多苦，估计只有他自己才知道。
从小被人挖骨，其后历经无数生死。
七神下界，他拼尽一切斩尽诸神，自己却也时日无多，最终被葬下···
其后复苏，却更苦！
他平定异域，扫除界海黑暗生灵、镇压黑暗准仙帝、成为万千世界的巅峰，看似辉煌一生，实则，却付出了无比惨痛的代价。
柳神陨落、小塔破碎、鸟爷与精壁大爷被打残、魔女战死、独孤云与银川同归于尽、堂兄十一，亲弟弟秦昊，亲子小石头都血祭了！
他的朋友、亲人、爱人、孩子、弟子都在他的眼前消逝。
他孤独的站在世界巅峰，回首望去，却是一片虚无。
看着自己曾经繁华的仙域分崩离析、九天十地更是支离破碎，他回忆起自己的过去，打遍天下无敌手、世上无人敢称尊，抬手间镇压逼格极高的安澜、俞陀等不朽之王，让他们永远跪伏在那最终的方向。
但他自己，却只有无尽感慨与沧桑、孤独与悲凉。
他已然无敌，但却只能独立于时间长河之上独断万古，不知多少岁月间，身后都空无一人啊···
虽有无尽辉煌，但却太过悲凉了。
无人能伴其左右，唯有自己独断万古。
独断万古！
看似简简单单四个字。
看似霸道无比，可但凡看过《完美》之人，都知道，这四个字所代表的无尽悲凉。
那不是荣耀，而是无可奈何。
诸天万界，无一人能跟上荒天帝的步伐，他唯有不断征战、独断万古、独自挡下一切黑暗啊！
完美，是一群人的完美。
却也正是因为荒天帝独断万古、独自挡下一切，才能有后世的‘完美世界’。
回忆起荒天帝的一生。
哪怕是林凡这个大老爷们儿，也是格外心疼。
他太苦了。
受过苦的主角很多！
但苦成荒天帝这般，却真不多见，甚至，再也寻不到了。
“不过···”
“这个世界的‘荒’，你且放心。”
林凡举起酒杯，隔空敬酒，从低落情绪中走出，轻声道：“在《完美》中，你唯有孤身一人艰难前行，没有人能追上你的步伐，到最后，唯有独断万古。”
“再回首，身后空无一人。”
“但在仙武大陆，我必不会让你如此！”
“至少···”
“你身旁、身后，不会孤独！”
他起身。
入苍茫大荒。
他···
要去为小石头撑腰。
要带给小石头，一个不一样的未来。
······
大荒，为东北域再普通不过的‘称呼’。
所谓大荒，其实就是‘大片荒芜之地’。
这些荒芜之地，有元气，但却不算充裕，可以修炼，但长时间待在大荒之中，上限普遍不高。
倒也有一些小部族、村落在其中生存，但更多的，却还是各种妖兽！
东北域，妖族争夺地盘失利···
直接导致，妖族在东北域的处境颇为尴尬，好地方很难抢到，大荒之内，环境又不太好，想靠自己修炼，很难！
于是···
许多有门路的妖兽，早已逃离东北域。
剩下的，要嘛没有门路。
要嘛，便是不愿意背井离乡或因其他原因而不愿离开。
而不愿离开这些，却也不愿坐以待毙。
因此，久而久之，东北域这边，便有一种与其他七域一州截然不同的‘风俗’-——祭灵。
所谓祭灵，便是一个族群为求自保，供奉某个‘妖兽’，或是强横存在，为其提供信仰或是其他好处，而祭灵负责保护该族群。
信仰之力，可助妖兽修炼~
其他供奉，也能给妖兽带来好处。
而妖兽反过来庇护该族群，如此相辅相成。
到后来，一些强大族群，也开始寻找祭灵。
只是，他们的祭灵更加强大，所求也更多！
不过强大族群本身便人数众多，能提供的信仰之力也更多，对妖兽而言，吸引力也很强。
于是乎，不知多少万年下来~
现在东北域，但凡是一个稍微有点人数的村子，便都有祭灵存在。
这却是在其他七域一州见不到的景象。
林凡对此并不感到意外。
仙武大陆太大了。
莫说是八域一州之间有各自不同的发展模式，就是同一域之间，差别也很大，这种差距，并不值得意外。
他孤身入大荒，靠着‘八倍镜之术’，倒也不担心遇到什么大危机。
只是寻找‘小石头’之路，却是任重而道远。
且需要一些运气。
······
这一日。
大荒深处。
一个村落之内，传出阵阵哭嚎之声。
“当家的，呜呜呜！”
“我当家的没了，我可怎么活呀！”
“我当家的也断了一条腿，日后还如何打猎？”
妇人们哭喊着。
青壮年怒不可遏。
“那石村之人太过分了！”
“分明是我等先看到的猎物！！！”
“我等动手，乃是合情合理，可他们却如此激烈反抗，甚至导致我等死伤惨重，村长，咱们要报仇啊！”
“他们连祭灵都没有，也敢如此？！村长，动手吧！带上祭灵大人，屠戮石村！”
“对，屠戮石村，复仇！”
“复仇！”
“复仇···”
到最后，其余话音都消失了。
众人举手，齐声高呼两个字。
复仇！
村长穿着兽皮裙，赤裸的上身无比健壮，其上，却满是爪痕。
那是他多年来与各种妖兽搏杀时留下的伤痕，也是荣耀的证明。
此刻，他赤红着双目，杀意涌动：“狩猎队带齐人手。”
“随我杀过去。”
“今日，覆灭石村！”
随即，他躬身跪拜：“请祭灵大人出手！”
其实，村长知道这里面有问题。
石村之人颇为霸道，但却也不会乱来，往日里摩擦不少，但却从未像今日这般凶残过！
他们向来比较克制，除非被人招惹。
今日之所以打的如此惨烈，大概率是自己这些村民惹事在先。
但···
此刻，却也无需多说什么了。
死了人，还不止一个，这仇，便不能不报！
“嗯···”
一声闷哼响起，随即，一个极为粗狂的声音道：“你等先去，本祭灵随后便到。”
“记住，本祭灵，要血食！”
“是，祭灵大人。”
村长立刻带人赶往石村···
······
石村。
狩猎队满载而归。
但却也几乎人人带伤。
他们浑身都是血气，妇孺们见状，都极为担心，连忙凑上来查看情况，甚至有人哭出声来。
随后，他们忙忙碌碌。
有人负责清理、包扎伤口。
有人负责分解猎物。
而老村长却是神色难看：“黑风村？”
狩猎队队长石臼怒道：“那黑风村之人该死！”
“我等拼着重伤，才将那三阶妖狼击杀，他们却想要做那在后的黄雀，抢夺猎物，非说是他们先看见的，更是主动出手。”
“我等唯有奋力反击，拼死相搏。”
“虽然人人带伤，但却杀了他们数人，还打残几个，这才平安归来。”
“若非我等尽皆拼命，悍不畏死，今日，只怕便要空手而归了！”
“岂有此理？”
老村长听后也是怒不可遏，但随即，他一声苦笑：“黑风村之人心胸狭隘，他们的祭灵亦是妖邪所化，极喜血食。”
“今日之事，定难善了了。”
“你等快快吃饱肚子、疗伤。”
“这一战···”
“还得靠你们。”
“村长放心，我等无惧！”
狩猎队员们嚷嚷着，却也知道事情严重，不敢耽搁，纷纷散去。
队长石臼则是取出腰间兽皮袋，道：“村长，今日运气不错，弄到一些兽奶，给那小不点喝了吧。”
“呵呵。”
说起小不点，老村长脸上也是浮现出一抹笑意。
但很快，笑意被冷冽所取代。
“我来，你且去疗伤！”
“好。”
接过兽皮袋，老村长转身回了山洞。
噼、啪。
山洞内，有着篝火燃烧。
木材燃烧之余，不时发出脆响。
篝火之上，有一口石缸。
缸内，有着满满一缸兽血。
此刻正咕嘟咕嘟冒着泡。
哗啦！
突然。
一个小脑袋从缸内探出。
他一把抹去脸上血液，嘿嘿笑道：“真好玩儿。”
“族长爷爷，你回来了？”
他不过四五岁的年纪，却极为灵动，那古灵精怪的眸子一眼便瞧见老人手中兽皮袋，顿时双目放光，跳出大缸，光着屁股跑来。
“喝奶，我要喝兽奶。”
“好，好~！”
老村长宠溺一笑，将兽皮袋递给小不点儿，并为他披上一件衣物，随即，守在一旁。
“咕咚、咕咚！”
小不点开喝。
人不大，胃口却好的很。
一口接一口，太快了。
起码两升兽奶，竟被他一饮而尽，随后，还意犹未尽的咂巴着嘴。
“嗝~！”
一个奶嗝。
小不点笑了。
老村长也跟着笑。
但笑着笑着，面上的愁容，却也有些难以掩饰。
“村长爷爷，您不开心么？为何愁眉苦脸？”
小不点抱着他的膀子：“我不想让你不开心。”
“我没事···”
“只是想到一些往事。”
“你这小不点儿。”村长爷爷呀然一笑：“快进缸去！莫要浪费药性！”
“好吧。”
“略略略~！”
小不点儿吐舌，随即一溜烟跳进缸去。
他还很小，无论是年纪，还是身形。
看上去也极为瘦弱。
但却极为灵活，也有‘力量’！
让老村长紧绷的神经稍微放松了些。
随即。
他守在洞口，不时眺望远方···
夜色很快降临。
篝火熄灭，小不点已然进入梦乡。
抚摸着小不点儿的额头，老村长缓缓起身，走出山洞。
洞外，火堆熊熊燃烧，火焰偶尔冲起一丈余高，带来滚滚热浪，驱散了夜间寒凉。
只是···
此刻肉身不冷，村民们的心，却有些冷。
狩猎队全员齐聚。
虽然他们的伤还未好，人人都还需要时间恢复，但此刻，他们却没有任何人缺席，且一股肃杀之意在人群之中蔓延。
“村长！”
瞧见老村长，他们纷纷起身。
“嗯。”
老村长点点头：“儿郎们，今夜，我们一同死战！”
“老村长？”
众人吃惊，想要劝解。
老村长却缓缓摇头，态度坚决：“覆巢之下无完卵，今夜，没有任何人可以置身事外，老夫虽老，却也还不至于是废人。”
“无需多言。”
众人沉默。
石臼本想再尝试，却听一女声传来：“老村长多说的对，我等，也要保卫家园。”
“小春？！”
石臼大惊。
他扭头看去，说话之人，乃是自己的婆娘！
“你是狩猎队队长，我是狩猎队队长的女人！”小春提着刀，直勾勾盯着他：“难道，我等就该看着你等血战，而躲在后面瑟瑟发抖吗？”
“对！”
其余青壮年女子也是纷纷拿起武器：“我们也要战！”
“还有我！”
一个十五六岁的少年冲出来，嗷嗷直叫。
却被自家老子一脚踢回家中：“有你什么事儿？！老子还没死呢！”
“爹！”
少男惨叫。
“住口！”
随即，他们面色骤变。
“来了！”
石臼等人猛然冲出村口栅栏之外，严阵以待。
老村长缓步上前。
路过村口时，看着井边那屹立、漆黑的雷击木，他停下脚步，并恭恭敬敬跪拜、磕头。
“柳神。”
“旁人都以为，你只是一截枯木。”
“唯有我知晓，你是无比强横的存在。”
“这些年来，我带着村民们年年朝拜，不求您能替石村杀敌、解围，只求···若今夜石村不敌，还请柳神，救我石村妇孺一命。”
说完。
也不等雷击木是否有所回应，便大步上前。
“石村！”
黑风村村长杀到。
他一马当先，浑身伤痕抖动，格外狰狞：“抢我族猎物，还敢杀我村民，今日，本村长便来讨个公道。”
“受死！”
“公道？！”
石臼迎上，与之死战，怒道：“公道自在人心！”
“你黑风村所为，你心里没数不成？”
“要战便战，我石村绝不退缩！”
“好！”
黑风村村长樊江龙冷哼一声：“好好好，今日，石村必将覆灭！”
“杀！！！”
大战随之爆发。
山野小村而已，实力都不算强。
最强者，也就是樊江龙与石臼。
都是第三境修为。
但樊江龙乃第三境六重，而石臼，却只是第三境四重。
双方大战，哪怕石臼全力以赴，却也从一开始便被压制。
The rest of the battlefields were pretty much the same.
Although the average strength of the Black Wind Village is stronger, this is the home ground of the Stone Village after all, and they have been well prepared. Even young and middle-aged women have joined the battle, and they also have the advantage of numbers.
After such a great battle, Black Wind Village didn't gain much benefit!
The melee continues...
Shijiu was extremely anxious.
Fan Jianglong's inner thoughts...
Also very urgent!
Shijiu was afraid of himself and Shicun, who might not be able to defeat him.
What Fan Jianglong was afraid of was that his own spirit would arrive too late, causing heavy losses to the Black Wind Village.
after all···
The Black Wind Village will still need to survive in the future, and will need to fight, hunt and guard against other tribes in the wilderness.
If the loss is too great, it will be troublesome in the future.
······
The fighting and shouting woke up Little Stone.
"Grandpa, the village chief?"
With hazy eyes, he called softly, but received no response.
This startled him suddenly, and then he got up from the stone bed, only to find a strange figure beside the bed.
"Who are you?!"
"Why are you here?"
"What's going on out there?"
The little guy was extremely alert and as fast as a cheetah, staring at the other party.
But Lin Fan felt mixed emotions at this moment.
After more than two months, I finally found this area.
In fact, if it weren't for the iconic 'lightning-struck wooden stake' at the entrance of the village, he might not have been able to find it.
“It’s really difficult.”
"It took me two full months, using an eight-fold scope and divine sense, to finally find it."
He murmured and sighed, but was also excited.
Finally I saw the template of Emperor Huang Tian. Even though he was still a child, the centipede-like scar on his chest could not be faked.
However, if we only look at his appearance, who would have thought that his fate would be so miserable? !
"I'm asking you a question. Who are you?!"
The little one bared his teeth and looked very wild.
"Don't worry."
Lin Fan laughed in silence, knowing that he had scared the other person. With a wave of his hand, the eight-fold mirror technique was activated, allowing the little guy to clearly see the battle situation outside.
"You are...an enemy?!"
The little guy was horrified, but also more alert.
"No."
"If I were your enemy, why would I have to talk to you?"
"Before this, I have nothing to do with you or the entire Shi Village, but I want to help you." Lin Fan stared into the little guy's eyes and spoke sincerely.
"Why help me?"
"How to help me!"
The little one was anxious and spoke repeatedly.
“Two choices.”
"One, I will help you deal with the enemies in Shicun."
"Second, I will teach you the method of cultivation, help you grow, and defeat all enemies by yourself!"
“?!”
"I?"
At this moment, the little one has not really embarked on the path of cultivation. He has just recovered from the "near-death state" and is still in the stage of drinking milk and bathing in animal blood.
Of course, I still don’t have the invincible belief that I will have in the future.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little unconfident.
"Can I?"
"As long as you want, there is nothing in this world that you can't do."
Lin Fan responded: "Answer me, what is your choice?"
He is 'forcing'.
But I'm also looking forward to it.
Looking forward to what the little one will choose.
At this moment, the little guy was staring at the picture in the eight-fold mirror technique.
Seeing uncles and aunts in the village being injured one after another, he gritted his teeth.
"I want to become stronger, defeat all enemies, and avenge my uncles!"
"good!"
Lin Fan was overjoyed.
Just now, for a moment, he was really afraid that his appearance would affect the little one's choice.
But now it seems that I was worrying too much.
Emperor Huangtian is always Emperor Huangtian!
"I will teach you the method of cultivation!"
