After breakfast, the Demon King went out with the soy sauce team, saying that he was going to catch the giant.

Naturally, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang would not let the three of them go alone. If the giant failed to catch them, the Kuaiji Mountain would be completely destroyed.

Lin Yehuo and Zou Liang were witnesses, and of course they followed happily to lead the way.

Zhao Pu and Zhao Zhen are naturally also interested, but unfortunately they are not allowed to go near the mountains and forests.

Long Qiaoguang was not here, and Zou Liang wanted to follow him into the mountains again. Ouyang was "weak and weak" and could not hold Zhao Pu back. Coupled with Zhao Zhen, who was afraid of chaos in the world, he had no choice but to ask Gongsun for help.

Gongsun said that he would take the children to the street to buy some things, and asked Zhao Pu to accompany them.

The Ninth Prince usually has nothing to say, but Gongsun only needs one word.

Sure enough, Zhao Pu was no longer interested in giants and asked Gongsun what he wanted to buy?

Gongsun blinked at him and winked.

Zhao Pu understood the idea - the nerd is going to cause trouble!

Zhao Pu was lured away by Gongsun, leaving Zhao Zhen alone, so Nangong and Ouyang could deal with him.

Finally, the soldiers divided into two groups, one group went into the mountains, and the other group took to the streets.

…

At the foot of Kuaiji Mountain, Zhan Zhao and the others came to the tea shed where Lin Yehuo and Zou Liang took shelter from the rain last night.

Although it was early in the morning and the weather was clear and clear, there was an inexplicable feeling of desolation near the official road due to the lack of pedestrians.

Zhan Zhao looked up at the dense forest in the mountains, then listened attentively, and felt that the surroundings were strangely quiet.

Lin Ye Huo Ji Lu is the best at leading people up the mountain.

Fifth Master, please work harder. You have to look at Zhan Zhao and look at Tianzun at the same time. The two of them like to turn to the side road while walking...

Soon, everyone reached halfway up the mountain.

Lin Yehuo pointed to one side and said, "The pit over there is where the seven villagers were trapped." Then he pointed to the top of the mountain, "The giant appeared in that place."

Zou Liang also nodded.

Everyone first went to the nearby pit to observe.

The pit is not deep, but it is quite big. There is a broken tree lying on one side of the pit.

The fifth master looked at the broken tree and found that it was not a dead tree that collapsed naturally, but was broken. The trunk was still relatively fresh. The fracture was not a smooth cut, but uneven... indicating that the tree was not

Those that were cut off with tools such as axes and saws were cut off by someone's palm or blown by strong winds.

The Demon King stared at the pit and studied it. It didn't look like a naturally formed pit. The soil underground was very new and there were traces of digging on both sides. It should have been dug out not long ago.

Everyone also agreed that there was still a lot of soil piled beside the pit...

At this time, Zhan Zhao discovered something unusual. He squatted next to the tree pole and looked at it for a while, then tugged on Yin Hou who was next to him and said, "Grandpa, look!"

Yin Hou looked in the direction of Zhan Zhao's finger...

Zhan Zhao asked Yin Hou to look at the other end of the tree.

The crown of this tree is gone, the branches and leaves on the treetop are almost broken, and there is a lot of dirt on the front end of the bare tree trunk, which feels like the dirt in a pit.

If you look carefully, you will find many broken tree branches in the pit.

Everyone studied for a while and came to an incredible conclusion - this big pit was dug with this tree pole. After digging, the tree pole was thrown aside.

Then the question arises. This is not about breaking off a tree branch to dig a hole, but breaking off a tree pole to dig a hole.

The experts present looked at each other - it might not be difficult to break a tree, but it would be a stretch to pick up such a thick pole to dig a hole.

Compared to everyone who looked confused, the Demon King looked excited and clapped his hands, "There is indeed a giant!"

After saying that, he ran up the mountain.

Tianzun and Yin Hou reluctantly followed him up the mountain, while Lin Yehuo ran in front to lead the way.

Zhan Zhao also wanted to follow, but Bai Yutang suddenly pulled him.

Zhan Zhao turned around.

I saw Master Wu pointing to the ground in front of him on the right.

Zhan Zhao looked over and saw that it was a clearing in the forest with a lot of moss growing on it. There was a clear footprint on the moist ground.

The footprints are so big that they can only be distinguished from a high place. When you get closer, you can't even think that they are footprints.

Zhan Zhao jumped up onto a big tree nearby, looked down... and saw a series of huge footprints extending towards the mountain.

Lin Yehuo took the Demon King and the others to the top of the mountain.

Looking down is a valley. That side is the sunny side of the mountain. Different from the shady side on the official road side, this side has lush shrubs, flowers in bloom, and some small animals.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also arrived. They came from the other side and followed the footprints.

Seeing the footprints, even Yin Hou and Tianzun started to believe it - was there really a giant?

"Isn't it really just someone pretending to be someone?" Lin Yehuo asked, "It's so big, it looks over one foot! And it has the head of a bird!"

Although the footprints disappeared when they arrived here, based on what Lin Yehuo and Zou Liang saw yesterday, the giant should have gone down the mountain.

The demon king led everyone down the slope of the valley until they reached the bottom of the valley.

There was a mountain stream at the bottom of the valley, with shallows on both sides. Everyone walked along the stone beach for a while, and soon found footprints again, and immediately followed the footprints.

Walking all the way to the end of the mountain stream, a large waterfall appeared in front of you, and the footprints disappeared at this point.

The waterfall is surrounded by bare trees, and there is a pool below. Although the waterfall is not high, it is majestic. The sound of the water is so loud that no one can hear clearly what they are saying.

Considering the giant's height, it shouldn't be difficult to jump off, so everyone simply jumped off the waterfall and landed at the edge of the pool.

Looking back, I found that there was a huge cave behind the waterfall.

Lin Yehuo opened his mouth wide and dragged Zou Liang and asked him to smell if there were any animals in the cave.

Zou Liang shook his head. He did smell the smell of a large animal in the mountain breeze last night, but now he did not smell it, but he smelled an unpleasant smell.

"It smells bad?" Lin Yehuo was curious, "What smells bad?

Zou Liang was a little disgusted and said it smelled like feces and urine. Maybe there was a big latrine nearby.

Lin Yehuo was even more puzzled - who built a big latrine in the mountains? For whom?

"Come here." Master Wu gestured to the cave - do you want to go in and have a look? Maybe the giant is inside?

Zhan Zhao also felt that this was possible. Considering the size of the giant, the pancake pulled out must not be an ordinary size, so Zou Liang could smell that smell!

After Zhan Zhao described it, Master Wu immediately didn't want to go in.

At this moment, the Demon King suddenly waved his hand and pointed at his ear, signaling... that there was a sound!

Almost at the same time, Tianzun and Yin Hou looked in two directions respectively.

Tianzun looked into the cave, while Yin Hou looked back at the woods behind him.

Tianzun pointed to the cave and said, "There seems to be someone inside."

Yin Hou pointed to the forest and said, "It seems like someone is coming."

The two elders also added together, "A lot of people!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both frowned. Are there many people coming from the mountain forest, or are there many people in the water curtain cave in front?

Just then, there was indeed a noise coming from the woods behind him.

Everyone turned around and saw many people appearing in the forest. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang thought the clothes of these people looked familiar until someone walked out of the forest.

Lin Yehuo and Zou Liang looked at each other.

Zhan Zhao let out a moderate "hum".

Tianzun and Yin Hou were both curious - who is it?

It was Jiang Wanglou who came out with a large group of people.

Jiang Wanglou was accompanied by the village chiefs of several nearby villages, some villagers, and police officers from the Yamen.

The policeman knew both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, and they were both surprised when they met.

Jiang Wanglou seemed to know Tianzun, he came over and saluted him, and seemed particularly polite.

Tianzun blinked, quite curious, and looked at his apprentice - does this child seem to be well-behaved? Who is he?

Zhan Zhao walked towards Tianzun and introduced him to the old man, "This is Jiang Wanglou."

When Tianzun, Yin Hou and Demon King heard this, they all looked at Jiang Wanglou carefully - it turned out to be you?!

Jiang Wanglou looked puzzled and asked, "Why are you all here?"

Zhan Zhao didn't mention the giant thing, but said that he rescued seven villagers in the woods last night. According to the villagers' description, they came to look for any clues.

Jiang Wanglou smiled, "That's a coincidence."

Zhan Zhao looked at the policeman.

The policeman replied, "This morning Mr. Jiang came to the Yamen and said that he was familiar with the terrain of Kuaiji Mountain and knew that there was a very hidden cave. If the Mountain God Palace had kidnapped hundreds of Jianghu people and wanted to hide them without being discovered,
