Chapter 1667

Just then, Hu Bayi found some strange scratches on a tree by the river.

"Come and see, there seems to be something on this tree." Hu Bayi shouted.

Huo Jilin and Wang Kaixuan hurried over.

"This scratch looks like some kind of symbol." Huo Jilin said.

Wang Kaixuan scratched his head: "What does this mean? Is it related to the symbols of those fish?"

Hu Bayi carefully observed the scratches and said, "It's hard to say, write it down first."

They continued to move forward and suddenly heard a strange sound coming from not far away.

"What sound?" Wang Kaixuan asked nervously.

Huo Jilin made a gesture to keep quiet, and the three of them quietly approached the direction of the sound.

I saw an old man in strange clothes muttering by the river, with some strange props placed in front of him.

"What is this old man doing?" Wang Kaixuan whispered.

Hu Bayi motioned him to be quiet, then slowly stepped forward: "Old man, what are you doing?"

The old man raised his head and glanced at them, his eyes showing vigilance: "Don't mind your own business, go!"

Huo Jilin hurriedly said: "Old man, we have no ill intentions, we are just curious about the strange symbols in this river."

The old man was silent for a while, and said: "This is a secret that you should not know."

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but said: "Just tell us, maybe we can help."

The old man snorted: "You can't help, this is a curse in our tribe."

Hu Bayi said: "Old man, don't be so sure, maybe we can find a solution together."

The old man hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Our ancestors once offended the river god, and the river god cursed , let the fish form strange symbols as a warning. If the curse cannot be lifted, there will be a disaster in our village. "

Huo Jilin asked: "How can the curse be lifted?"

The old man sighed: "We need to find a lost artifact, but I don't know where it is."

Wang Kaixuan slapped his thigh: "Oh, this is difficult."

Hu Bayi thought for a moment and said: "Old man, think about it again, do you have any clues?"

The old man thought for a while and said: "Legend has it that the artifact is at the source of the river, but it is very dangerous there, and no one can come back alive."

Huo Jilin said firmly: "No matter what, we have to try."

The old man looked at them, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes: "Okay, I wish you good luck."

The three said goodbye to the old man and set off towards the source of the river.

Along the way, Wang Kaixuan kept complaining: "What's going on? Do we have to take risks?"

Hu Bayi encouraged him: "Since we have encountered it, we can't just ignore it. Maybe this is our mission."

Huo Jilin also said: "Yes, Kaixuan, we can't just stand by and watch them die."

After a difficult trek, they finally came to the source of the river.

"This place looks gloomy." Wang Kaixuan was a little scared.

Hu Bayi said: "Don't be afraid, just be careful."

Just then, a thick fog rose and the surrounding scene became blurred.

"No, everyone be careful!" Huo Jilin shouted.

Suddenly, several ferocious beasts rushed out of the fog and pounced on them with their teeth and claws bared.

"Fight them!" Hu Bayi drew his weapon and rushed towards the beasts.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

"Oh, these beasts are so fierce!" Wang Kaixuan shouted loudly while waving the stick in his hand.

Hu Bayi was agile, shouting while fighting back: "Don't be distracted, concentrate!"

Huo Jilin did not flinch either, and responded calmly: "Pay attention to defense!"

After a hard fight, they finally repelled the beasts.

"Huh, we finally got rid of these guys." Wang Kaixuan panted and sat on the ground.

Hu Bayi observed the surroundings vigilantly: "Don't relax too early, there is no telling how many dangers there are in this place."

Huo Jilin nodded: "Keep moving forward and find the artifact as soon as possible."

They continued to grope forward in the fog, and suddenly, Wang Kaixuan slipped and fell into a trap.

"Help!" Wang Kaixuan's cry for help echoed in the trap.

Hu Bayi and Huo Jilin hurried to the trap.

"Kaixuan, how are you?" Hu Bayi asked anxiously.

Wang Kaixuan shouted in the trap: "I'm fine, but this trap is too deep and I can't climb out."

Huo Jilin looked around for tools that could be used for rescue: "Don't worry, we will find a way to get you out."

Hu Bayi untied the rope on his body and threw one end to Wang Kaixuan: "Grab the rope, we will pull you up."

With the efforts of the two, Wang Kaixuan was finally pulled up."Oh, what bad luck." Wang Kaixuan patted the dust off his body.

"Be careful, don't make any more mistakes." Hu Bayi warned.

The three continued to move forward and finally found something that looked like a divine weapon in a cave.

"Is this the divine weapon we are looking for?" Huo Jilin approached cautiously.

Wang Kaixuan's eyes lit up: "It should be it, let's take it away quickly."

Just as they reached out to take the divine weapon, a low voice suddenly sounded in the cave: "Those who move the divine weapon without permission will die!"

The three were startled, and Wang Kaixuan's voice trembled: "What the hell is this?"

Hu Bayi clenched the weapon in his hand: "Don't be afraid, take a look at the situation first."

At this time, a huge figure slowly walked out of the darkness. It turned out to be a monster guarding the divine weapon.

"You mortals, don't even think about taking the divine weapon!" The monster roared.

Hu Bayi stepped forward and said, "We are here to lift the curse and save the villagers. Please show some mercy."

The monster sneered, "That won't work. The artifact cannot fall into your hands."

Huo Jilin said, "If you don't take the artifact, the curse cannot be lifted and more people will suffer."

The monster was unmoved and attacked them directly.

The three of them rushed to fight and had a life-and-death battle with the monster.

"This guy is too powerful!" Wang Kaixuan shouted while fighting.

Hu Bayi shouted, "Hold on, there must be a way to defeat it!"

Huo Jilin had an idea: "Attack its weakness!"

After a fierce battle, they finally found the monster's weakness and successfully defeated it.

"Finally solved." Hu Bayi collapsed to the ground with exhaustion.

Wang Kaixuan picked up the artifact excitedly, "Now I can go back and report."

Huo Jilin said, "Don't be too happy too soon. We don't know if this artifact can lift the curse."

The three returned to the village with the artifact.

The villagers gathered around, including the old man.

"Did you really find the artifact?" the old man asked excitedly.

Hu Bayi handed the artifact to the old man: "I hope this can lift the curse."

The old man held the artifact and held a solemn ceremony.

After the ceremony, a miracle happened. The fish in the river no longer formed strange symbols.

The villagers cheered and Wang Kaixuan smiled and said: "Great, we did a great thing."

Hu Bayi and Huo Jilin also smiled at each other.
