Heaven’s Shadow

Chapter 297: Gambling

Huoyan stared at the landing dust for a long while, then lowered him slowly, and his face eased after a while. Then, suddenly, he said, "I'm just a person, not even Patriarch, even if I take such an oath, I may not really be able to retribute to the tribe. "

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Well, you're right."

Huoyan looked at him and said, "Then you want me to swear?"

Lu Chen said calmly: "It doesn't matter if it counts, just rest assured."

Huoyan gazed at Lu Chen, Lu Chen also stared directly at him. The eyes of the two men did not mean to dodge. After a while, Huoyan nodded, took two steps to the side, kneeled down on one knee towards the vast wasteland, and stroked one hand Chest, with one finger, repeated Lu Chen's vow just now.

Until this moment, Lu Chen finally moved slightly, and when looking at Huoyan, the barbarian became more complicated, with a little caution and appreciation.

At the same time, the last ray of light in the sky finally disappeared.

it's dark.

"What are you going to do next?" Lu Chen asked Huoyan.

Huoyan Road: "I'll take you to the Vulcan Altar to see what the **** of Vulcan has a **** purpose. That place is quite far away, very secretive and very dangerous. Without me, you can't find it."

Lu Chen glanced at him and said, "Just the two of us?"

Huoyan said: "Just the two of us."

Lu Chen pointed to the tribal camp in the dark and said, "Are you ignoring them?"

Huoyan was silent for a while, and said, "With my father, the tribe can't be chaotic. Coupled with the victory over the Shanling tribe, there won't be a sudden war ..."

The voice didn't fall, and suddenly a figure suddenly rushed out from the darkness next to it, which was Huoyan's son Firehawk.

I saw the teenager looking excited, and strode to the front of Huoyan, shouting, "Are, what are you doing?"

The muscles on Huoyan's face twitched slightly, then took a deep breath and whispered, "Son, I want to leave the tribe for a while. In the meantime, you need to help the grandfather to lead the tribe. ... "

"Why?" The fire eagle looked angry and incomprehensible, referring to the landing dust. "Just for this sudden human race? What happened to you today, Dad, why is it suddenly like a person?" "

Huoyan shook her head and said, "This is the will of Vulcan. Son, everything I do is for our black fire tribe."

The Firehawk roared, but looking at his father's determined look, he seemed to know that he could no longer be persuaded, and had to turn his head and stared at Lu Chen fiercely. If the vision can kill people, Lu Chen may be dead at this moment.

Afterwards, the fire eagle gritted his teeth and ran back, struggling to look very disappointed with the father.

Lu Chen looked at the back of the young man and suddenly said, "In fact, what he said makes some sense. Whoever changed it will think that your decision is a bit hard to imagine."

Huoyan silently looked at the direction in which the back of the fire eagle disappeared, and the shadow of the black fire tribe camp in the night. After a while, he suddenly threw his hand and threw the fire scepter directly to Lu Chen. Then he turned and walked away, saying, "Let's go."

Lu Chen caught the Sceptre of Fire and turned it around. The smooth feel made him feel a little familiar and kind, and it was also a little ridiculous. He leaned a hand to his chest, and the Scepter of Fire disappeared instantly, then he greeted Ah Tu and quickly followed Fire Rock.

While walking, Huoyan glanced at Lu Chen's chest intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a peculiar color in his eyes, but in the end he said nothing.

After walking for a while, Lu Chen suddenly asked him, "I still want to ask you something."

Huoyan said: "You said."

Lu Chen said: "The entire Blackfire clan does not believe in me. You are only one person. As your status, why do you take such a big risk and do it desperately, even almost turning your face with your clan?"

Huoyan walked forward silently, and after a while, he whispered, "Neither of them saw danger."

"What danger?"

"The danger of the dead."

Lu Chen frowned, and said, "What?"

There seemed to be a faint glimpse on Huoyan's face, and then he slowly said, "Even after the tribe's ancestors fled from the north thousands of years ago, doom has been entangled in our black fire tribe. Among them is that those ancestors committed the absolute Great sin, so he was punished by Vulcan. "

Lu Chen groaned for a moment, then looked at him and asked tentatively, "You mean, what did the ancestors of the Blackfire tribe flee back from the north?"

Huoyan smiled bitterly, and said astringently: "At that time, your monk army was too strong, and after the blood battle, the victory and defeat have been divided. The Heihuo tribe was the largest tribe that year, responsible for covering the other tribes and fleeing south, but in the most important At this juncture, our ancestors abandoned the shaman, the priest, and the warriors who were fighting fiercely, and they crossed the Daxue Mountain and the broken sand sea and ran back to the wilderness. "

Lu Chen froze for a moment, then seemed to remember something, and said, "Later, your powerful ancestors did not return?"

Huoyan sighed and said, "Later, the war was extremely fierce. Your human race had supernatural and world-famous shots. It was a landslide and the terrain changed ... The only passage was sealed, and then those people And never came back. "

Lu Chen was silent.

After Huoyan was silent for a while, the tone seemed to calm down, and then said: "Since then, our black fire tribe has plummeted and become a small and weak tribe on the wasteland. Until now, it is only daily Mix with ghost eyes, thunder lizards and other influential tribe. But even so, after such a long time, people in our tribe seem to be getting used to it, and they think that it is probably not bad to go on like this. . "

Lu Chen said, "But don't you think so?"

Huoyan shook her head and said, "This kind of life is so lifeless, lifeless, and hopeless. Even if you can continue to live for decades or even hundreds of years now, one day, an accident, a storm, a defeat The war is enough to make us black fire. "

He stopped and turned to look at Lu Chen, and said, "They can't see it, I saw it. I could do nothing, but I happened to meet you, then I would take a bet anyway. The black fire tribe is too Weak, only with the priests in the tribe can there be hope of rising again in this harsh wasteland, even if ... "

Lu Chen said lightly: "Even if the priest might be a personal tribe?"

For a moment, Huoyan twitched the muscles on her cheeks, seemed to grit her teeth fiercely, and then she said, "Yes."

Lu Chen nodded, and after walking a few more steps, he suddenly asked, "Have you ever thought about it, maybe all the other members of your Blackfire clan are right, is it you alone?"

Huoyan strode forward, facing the endless night in front of him. When the cold wind passed, his tall and burly body showed no sign of retreating and avoiding, and darted forward, saying loudly: "That's what I lost, that way also OK, I will lose you a life, only if I die for the fire! "

Lu Chen looked at his back from behind, and suddenly sighed slightly, nodded, and whispered to himself, "Good man. I don't think there are such resolute and determined characters among the barbarians, amazing! "

Huoyan brought the landing dust to the depths of the wasteland one day and one night. Except for the rest time and sleep, he almost always walked forward.

Later, Lu Chen couldn't help wondering, and asked him, "Isn't that altar of Vulcan the holy place of your black fire tribe, why your camp is not guarded near the holy place?"

Huoyan shook her head and said, "No, once, it is different from the altar in the holy place. Ordinary mortals are not suitable to live nearby for a long time. Second, do you live too close, it will easily attract the attention of other clans, and will endanger the holy place Safety."

Lu Chen frowned, and said, "The other clans know that you have something about the altar of Vulcan, so you want to come and pry?"

Huoyan nodded: "After all, our tribe was the largest tribe in the wilderness, so many people think that there may be many treasures in our altar sacred place. After the north and south were completely isolated, many tribal people threatened to seize it. This secret was all rejected by us. "

"They didn't make use of it?"

"Of course I use it." Huoyan faintly said, "Kidnapping, killing, torture, war ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ what has happened to our black fire tribe, otherwise the strength will not decline so fast. That is, Later, they used all the methods, but they still didn't get any news, so this matter gradually faded, presumably the altar of Vulcan is just a legend. "

Lu Chen stopped talking, but felt inexplicably more pressure on himself.

Such a major secret, the Black Fire clan has been kept for so many years, and only the patriarch has passed from word to word from generation to generation. Now Huoyan is saying to take himself with him.

Of course, there is the so-called Vulcan sake, and it is so attractive to bring a Vulcan rod, but the resolute decisiveness of Huoyan is yet another surprise to Lu Chen in his heart.

He looked up at Huoyan, thinking, this barbarian is probably the most gambling and crazy person among barbarians for so many years.

In this way, they walked for two days, but still did not reach the place where Huoyan said, but on the road the next day, when they walked on the lonely and desolate wasteland, a sudden overwhelming yellow came from the front. Sand and dust, and then a scream of screams, someone seemed to be screaming in the sky, and there were thousands of troops, floating from the depths of the wasteland ahead. (To be continued.)
