Although Xiao was missing, Huang Guxuan was not too anxious. After all, Xiao's strength was there, and he had a second personality that was extremely protective of him, so nothing would happen to him. What he was more concerned about was why Xiao left without saying a word, because he didn't seem like that kind of person.

Did you suddenly discover something?

Huang Guxuan randomly found a wonton shop to have breakfast. Generally speaking, it is easy to collect information in such places, but whether it is what you want depends on luck.

As he expected, other diners in the restaurant were talking about the latest news.

"Hey, did you hear that there was a big fire in the mountains last night?"

"Really? No wonder it was foggy and I could smell something burning when I woke up this morning."

"Just blow it. The fire has already gone out. The wind is not blowing towards us."

"Could it be that my nose is more sensitive?"

"The first group of people who went to investigate the scene have returned. I heard that the fire started in a village and most of the village was burned down."

"Village? There is a village near our town?"

"This is also the first time I've heard of it."

"The fire is so big? It's a miracle that it didn't burn over here."

"It sounds scary to see a fire in the mountains in the middle of the night. Fortunately, it didn't burn into the town."

"I heard that there were traces of a cordon at the scene, and all the weeds and trees near the village had been cleared away, even cleaner than the grass in our fields. The fire was probably not extinguished naturally, but was put out manually."

"This guy is pretty nice. He went to put out the fire in the middle of the night."

"So who started the fire?"

"I heard that the village's enemies came looking for them. But after this incident, some people in the village became crazy. I heard someone say that when they first arrived there, they saw a man running naked."

"Fuck! Exciting!"

"..."

Huang Guxuan drank the soup in the bowl, wondering if the forest fire these people were talking about had anything to do with Xiao.

Although Xiao controls the wind, he has a wolf that can breathe fire.

He listened for a while and found that there was no other information. In addition, the soup in the bowl was almost gone, so he left.

After returning to the inn, he gave Qingyang bowl after bowl of sobering soup, and the latter finally sobered up.

"Clean up the remaining alcohol yourself. Follow me after you're done. Xiao is gone."

Qingyang asked: "Missing? Lost contact?"

"I... don't have the mark of Xiao's message stone."

"You still know you have the communication stone?" Qingyang complained, and quickly straightened his posture, "Where can I find it?"

"Just come with me."

As soon as the two of them left the inn, they found that the streets were in a state of chaos, and people seemed to be fleeing in one direction. Huang Guxuan stopped a man to ask about the situation. The man was eager to run, but he couldn't break free from his hand. He could only anxiously say: "A monster has entered the town! Let go, don't hold me!"

After getting the answer he wanted, Huang Guxuan let go of his hand, and the man immediately joined the fleeing crowd.

Although the Manghuang Ancient Domain has signed a non-aggression agreement with the human race, the influence left over from thousands of years still exists and cannot be changed by a contract. Otherwise, with the dark beast tide approaching and a powerful enemy at hand, most of the troops stationed at the entrance to the Manghuang Ancient Domain would remain idle.

The two went up against the flow of people, and finally saw a giant black and red wolf at the end of the crowd.

It's Red Star.

Chixing was also very happy to see the two of them, or to be more precise, Huang Guxuan. It bit the hem of Huang Guxuan's clothes, as if it wanted to take him somewhere.

Huang Guxuan couldn't understand Chixing's words directly, so he summoned his contracted beast, Pangolin Lingli. After retelling, he learned that Chixing wanted to take him to save Xiao, who suddenly disappeared.

Even Xiao's own contracted beast couldn't find him. This is really...

Chixing brought the two of them to the place where Xiao's breath was last seen, which was the shed in the center of the village.

It barked at the reddish-brown pool, warning the two of the danger. It had accidentally licked it before, and slept until dawn, wasting so much time. Fortunately, everyone in the village had been driven out by it, otherwise it would have suffered if it had fallen asleep in the enemy's territory.

"Did Xiao sink to the bottom of the pool?" Huang Guxuan stood by the pool, looking at the water whose bottom he couldn't see clearly. He suddenly felt a little panicked.

Sleeping underwater? You won't drown, will you?

Qingyang was originally reading a book on the table. When he heard the question, he came to the edge of the pond and looked around: "It's possible. Let's get rid of the water first."

Meanwhile, on the other side, Green Mandrill had passed through the periphery of the ruins and came to a location near the center. Unlike the periphery where only a few pillars were left, the buildings here were still well preserved and could even be explored.

Green Goblin picked the best-preserved building and walked straight in.

Although most of the things in the building have turned into dust after countless years of erosion, and the remaining things are already in ruins, it can still be clearly seen that the layout inside the building is completely different from that outside.

There are many things here that are not available outside, but Xiao can recognize them at a glance, such as televisions, refrigerators, etc. Staying here, he feels a sense of intimacy as if he is back home.

Even Green Xiao was standing next to a scrap metal that looked like a rice cooker, muttering quietly, "This thing looks a bit like the mechanism that Master Liuyun is researching."

Xiao said: "I think the two should be the same thing." Both are rice cookers.

When Xiao came out of the building, he was extremely shocked. He had a bold guess that this ruins originated from a civilization with a very advanced technology tree, but for some unknown reason, this civilization was destroyed and the city was buried underground.

Wait, why does this development seem familiar?
