Chapter 216 The Truth of the Mountain of Beasts

"Little Jiruo, where are you? Why can't grandpa see you?" Shanshenmu asked slowly.

As a plant demon, the last thing the Mountain God Tree lacks is longevity. Now that it has no worries about food and clothing and has someone to take care of everything, it has naturally developed a leisurely temperament.

Anthropologists told him that this is called health preservation, and most older people do this.

Just as Ji Ruo was about to answer, Gu Xingzhou said, "Shan Shenmu, you can't see the other person when you call, you have to use video."

"Then make me one right away."

"You have to dig me out first..."

"Why?"

"If you don't dig me out, how can I operate for you?"

"oh."

The call was then disconnected.

Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian looked at each other with strange expressions.

A moment later, Gu Xingzhou sent a video call request, and DJ Ji Ruo accepted it.

It was also late at night in Wanshou Mountain. The body of the Mountain God Tree had grown larger and larger, and its crown even seemed to stretch into the sky. Stars twinkled between the leaves, and at first glance, they looked like fruits of the Mountain God Tree.

The camera seemed to be a little far away, which allowed Ji Ruo to clearly see the entire picture of the mountain sacred tree.

There is also a small round object in the land next to the sacred tree. Upon closer inspection, it looks like the head of ancient Xingzhou...

Gu Xingzhou muttered softly: "I even used professional live broadcast equipment to help you start the video, why are you burying me? You cook when you are full, right? Even if you are not busy, you are not as quick as you..."

Ji Ruo didn't hear Gu Xingzhou's whisper and praised: "Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, you are so beautiful now. Your fruit looks like stars."

"These are the stars." The mountain god Muhe said calmly, "You human scholars know so much. Not only did you help me completely sort out the veins of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, you also came up with a way to get me one step closer and let me touch the starry sky..."

"Really? Congratulations to Grandpa Mu, the mountain god." Ji Ruo started chatting with the mountain god Mu about family matters.

“Ahem.”

Liang Shixian coughed lightly and said, "Ji Ruo, let's talk business."

"Oh, yes." Ji Ruo said, "Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, can you help me contact Aunt Jinglan? I want to ask her something about the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts."

"About the matter of the Mountain of Beasts? You can ask me. Grandpa can help you check it."

"Check?" Ji Ruo was curious: "How do you check?"

"Everything that exists will leave a record in the underground veins. Grandpa, I have already controlled the underground veins of Wanshou Mountain. Just ask whatever you want to ask. I can directly query all the past information recorded in the underground veins. I know everything Jinglan knows, and I also know things she doesn't know."

"So that's how it is." Ji Ruo suddenly realized it, and after congratulating the mountain god tree again, he went straight to the point: "Then can you tell me why there was a geological change at the foot of the mountain when I took the martial arts exam? Was it controlled by someone?"

"Well, you also know that wasn't the Earth-Flipping Dragon besieged and killed by the demons occupying the mountain top? That guy was a demon born in the earth veins, a child of the earth veins of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. Since birth, he has the ability to control the earth veins of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. Every move he makes will cause earthquakes...

However, that guy is rather lazy and usually sleeps most of the time, so in most cases, the ground veins of Wanshou Mountain are very stable.

And it was precisely because of that guy's death that the underground veins at that time lost their control and became chaotic.

Not only the foot of the mountain, but also the mountainside and the top are changing, but the changes are not significant.”

"In other words, it is indeed the fault of those demons?" Ji Ruo frowned: "But why did they suddenly want to surround and kill the earth-turning dragon? It seems that even if they killed the earth-turning dragon, it would be difficult for them to digest it in a short time..."

"That's because the earth-turning dragon woke up early." The mountain god tree suddenly pulled out Gu Xingzhou, who was buried in the soil with only his head exposed, and said, "There are many children like you who come to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain every year, and it is not uncommon for them to get injured or die.

The earth-turning dragon discovered that the flesh and blood of those children seemed to have been tampered with. Xiao Gu should know what the tampering was, but I don't know.

After being devoured by the demons, those corpses will allow the demons to gain considerable wisdom in a very short period of time, and then become the king of their own race, and through wisdom, lead their own race to extinction..."

Ji Ruo was stunned for a moment. Is this why those goblins could talk? !

But, the flesh and blood were tampered with? When?

This kind of thing should be common, so my body should also...

Gu Xingzhou said unhappily: "What do you mean those children's flesh and blood were tampered with? We in Da Xia would never do such a thing!"

He looked at Ji Ruo and explained, "Little Ji Ruo, this matter is top secret, but now the secret realm martial arts examination system has been abolished and the confidentiality level has been lowered. With your achievements, you are qualified to know.

It’s not that your flesh and blood has been tampered with, but there is a secret door in our human martial arts… The specific situation is a bit complicated, you just need to know that this secret door does not harm us humans, and the reason for leaving this secret door is to make the man-eating demons pay with blood…”

The plan suddenly came to mind.

The mountain god continued, "In short, it was because of this that the earth-turning dragon was very angry. It went to the demons on the top of the mountain to discuss killing all the human children who came in this year to teach you humans a lesson.

The demons were worried that humans would go crazy and retaliate, so they didn't agree. Besides, they also coveted the power of the earth-turning dragon. In their opinion, it would be much easier to surround and kill an earth-turning dragon than to face angry and crazy humans.

So the earth-turning dragon died."

"Ah, this..."

Ji Ruo opened his mouth and asked, "Is it so careless?"

My goodness, you were planning to find an ally, but ended up seeking death... How the hell can you find justice for this?

Liang Shixian asked: "Grandpa Mu, the mountain god, what happened next?"

The mountain god tree said, “Later, when they were dividing up the earth-turning dragon, a four-star peak cat demon came to the top of the mountain… To be honest, I couldn’t tell what kind of cat demon she was. When she arrived, she saw the demons on the top of the mountain dividing up the corpse of the earth-turning dragon, and she came up to try to get a piece of the pie, but those stingy demons naturally wouldn’t agree.

Having just killed the earth-turning dragon, they were full of confidence and wanted to eat the cat demon as well, so they started fighting.

Although the cat demon was not very good at fighting, it was very agile and fast.

Although she was injured, she also took the opportunity to steal the dragon ball from the Earth-Turning Dragon and seemed to have stolen something from the Moon-Swallowing Toad... In short, she did not die in the end and successfully escaped."

As he spoke, the Mountain God Tree shook the ancient Xingzhou that he had hung up with a branch, and said, "Those demons don't know the importance of the Earth-Turning Dragon to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain's veins, and they attributed all the subsequent geological changes to the cat demon who stole the Earth-Turning Dragon Pearl.

Later, the cat demon met Xiao Gu and was almost beaten to death by him. After forcibly activating the Earth-Turning Dragon Ball, it disappeared... The subsequent information is very vague even in the records of the underground veins, and I don’t know where the cat went. "
