"I also read it in ancient books."

The Ancient Barbarian Mountains have existed for a long time, and no one can tell how many tribes live in them.

But records about this mountain range are scattered.

During the time she was recovering from her injuries, she had nothing to do and found a lot of books to read.

One of them records a special race that belongs to the ancient barbarian mountains. They are special because this race lives underground.

Short in stature, with a rough face and a bad personality.

This race rarely appears on the ground. According to records in books, it is said that this race has long since disappeared in the mountains.

Lu Yun didn't expect to see this legendary Houtu tribe again.

The opponent's power to control the soil allows them to travel unimpeded underground.

"Why are you trying to trick us?" Liu Ru asked confusedly after her identity was clear.

"This is our territory, you should leave here."

As he said this, the other person's eyes looked deeper with a little fear.

"I don't want to harm you, I just want you to leave quickly and don't disturb us."

"Otherwise...it will be too late."

The last sentence was spoken in a low voice, but everyone heard it.

"What do you mean? It's too late. Keep talking. What are you doing by showing off!" Seeing that the other party stopped talking mid-sentence, Liu Ru stamped her feet angrily.

Seeing Liu Ru's confused look, the dwarf rolled his eyes.

"Have you not noticed yet? Something is wrong here."

"I made that tree just to scare you and make you leave, but I didn't do the rest."

He tugged at the silk thread around his neck and looked at Lu Yun with resentful eyes.

"You are the most powerful person here, right? Then take them away quickly. You can't deal with the things inside."

He said a very quick word and looked at Lu Yun eagerly, hoping that Lu Yun would let him go.

Unfortunately, the expression on his face was a bit unsightly and could not impress Lu Yun.

"The rest are gone." Lu Yun said softly.

She initially suspected that the Houtu tribe was causing trouble and deliberately separated each team, but when she saw each other, she knew that there was some danger that she had not discovered.

Since they were not spinning in circles, it was equivalent to moving forward, but no trace of the others was found along the way.

Nothing has changed in the dead wood forest, but what about the people?

This operation could not be peaceful, and they did not hear the rest of the fighting, as if at a certain moment, they were the only ones left here.

"By the way, have you all touched those dead trees?"

The dwarf asked again. After receiving the anxious looks from everyone, the dwarf smiled very proudly.

"If you touch these trees, you will be marked by the monster. It will always be watching you."

"It's too late, you can't leave, and you're finished."

At the end, as if giving up on himself, the other party sat on the ground and looked up at Lu Yun.

"Lu, Senior Sister Lu."

Liu Ru was worried.

I didn't feel it before, but now that the dwarf said this, I felt like something was wrong here.

"What do we do now?"

For a moment, all the disciples focused their eyes on Lu Yun, and even those in the Divine Doctor Valley looked at him very earnestly.

Qi Yun and others carried out the hugging behavior to the end.

"..."

In a pair of bright eyes, Lu Yun tugged at the hostage in her hand.

"Don't look at me, ask him."

He was threatening them, but there was no fear on his face, but rather a sense of ease.

This confident look shows that things are still turning around.

After this point was pointed out by Lu Yun, the dwarf twitched the corner of his mouth and glared at Lu Yun again. Seeing Lu Yun's clear eyes, the dwarf bit his back teeth and felt very unhappy. "You don't want us to help you."

Although they can't leave here, they don't live on the surface. When he finds a chance, he can burrow underground and leave.

When the time comes, he has to tell his tribe that these humans are insidious and cunning beings, and he will never have contact with them again.

"What's your name?"

Liu Ru came over and asked. When she turned her hand, a watery spirit fruit appeared in her palm.

The sweet smell immediately attracted the other person's attention.

Seeing that her method was effective, Liu Ru smiled even more kindly.

"Here, eat and quench your thirst."

She looked at the dwarf. He was wearing rags and had a yellow complexion. He looked malnourished at first glance.

This spiritual fruit is a great tonic.

The saliva in his mouth was secreting crazily, and the dwarf rolled his throat, not wanting to accept the temptation.

But the fragrance kept getting into Wang's nose, making it impossible for him to leave his peripheral vision.

He glanced at it, then peeked at it, his little appearance made people laugh.

"Take sugar pills?"

Qi Yun also came over, holding a pile of honey-colored sugar pills in his hand.

The bright color, coupled with the gentle medicinal power the dwarf felt from it, made him swallow louder.

"Oh, there's also this." The others also used their chips to negotiate.

Under the temptation of so many delicious foods, the dwarf could no longer maintain his fierce face.

He looked at Lu Yun, his eyes saying, where is your tribute?

Lu Yun's reaction was to let the other person feel the sharpness of the thread on his neck.

Shrinking his neck, the dwarf gave in.

"My name is Datu."

He took the spirit fruit in Liu Ru's hand and took a bite.

The sweet taste and abundant juice made Datu's eyes widen, and a hungry expression appeared on his face.

But even so, he didn't devour the spirit fruit. Instead, he looked at the tooth marks on the fruit with a pity and collected it along with the rest of the bribe.

Although he was full of hunger for food and couldn't look away from it, he still restrained himself from eating, and his movements were very careful, as if he was handling something precious.

Seeing the probing eyes of the others, Datu's face turned a little dark, but he still explained.

"When you are trapped here for thousands of years, you will know how valuable these things are."

"But let me say it first, I can't send you out, but I can send you to find it."

When Dadi mentioned it, he felt fear and hatred.

"What exactly is that 'it'?" someone asked.

"It's a dryad, a crazy dryad."

While speaking, Datu clasped his hands together, and a hollow in the ground revealed a passage.

"If you are not afraid of death, you can follow me."

Dadu glanced at Lu Yun and jumped down, followed closely by Lu Yun.

With Lu Yun's statement, the others naturally followed.

The passage was a bit long, and after sliding for a while, they came underground.

In the soil that should be solid, there are corridors extending in all directions. Judging from those traces, they appear to be several years old.

Everything is fine, just a little...short.

They have to bend down when walking here.

"What are you looking at?" Facing the incomprehensible looks from everyone, Da Tu shouted angrily: "Will love come or not?"

What's wrong with him being short?
Dadi quickened his speed.

The small figure can move around here very nimbly, which makes it difficult for those following behind.
