Jin Yunu suddenly started meowing, leading the group of cats.
They were already eagerly anticipating a hearty meal.
Li Xiaohu didn't stop him this time and nodded.
The cats immediately pounced on the Iron-Headed Dragon King's corpse like hungry tigers, and began to devour it.
Only the water-crossing gourd cat had already eaten and drunk its fill, and found a spot to lie down comfortably.
Li Xiaohu noticed.
The water-crossing gourd cat seems to have grown even larger.
It's not the kind of big belly that comes from being full, but rather a significant increase in overall size.
He turned to look at Jin Yunu and the others.
They all seem to have grown a size larger.
Li Xiaohu wondered to himself, "Perhaps it's the effect of the centipede elixir and the flesh of these monsters?"
It seems we need to find more of these things for them.
The villagers who had gathered there didn't have time to pay attention to the cats.
They were all completely absorbed in the Iron-Headed Dragon King before them.
Someone exclaimed, "This looks much bigger than the one Master Jin caught!"
"Master Jin?"
Li Xiaohu keenly grasped this information.
Isn't that referring to his senior brother, Jin Suanpan?
He hurriedly pushed through the crowd to the man's side and asked, "Fellow villager?"
"Have you met Master Jin?"
The villagers looked at Li Xiaohu with surprise, nodded in confusion, and replied, "Ah."
"I saw him just a few days ago."
He immediately became wary and asked, "By the way, who are you?"
Li Xiaohu smiled kindly and said, "The Master Jin you mentioned is my senior brother."
He said that this generation of people is suffering greatly from the severe drought.
"A river monster is causing trouble in the Yellow River again."
"He specifically asked me to help him capture this Iron-Headed Dragon King, and then build a fishbone temple so that the people can pray for rain."
Li Xiaohu's lies were so sincere and heartfelt.
When Partridge Whistle heard this, everyone believed it was true!
The captain chimed in, "This young master is right!"
"He's the one who captured this Iron-Headed Dragon King!"
The villagers looked at Li Xiaohu with expressions of sudden realization, and their eyes held an even greater sense of admiration.
The villagers' expressions changed, and they said with smiles, "So you're Master Jin's junior brother!"
"No wonder he was able to capture this Iron-Headed Dragon King so easily!"
"Skills are indeed passed down from generation to generation!"
Li Xiaohu smiled noncommittally and pressed on, "Then do you know where he is now?"
"I know!" the villager nodded and said, "He's busy building the Fishbone Temple in that Dragon Ridge maze!"
Li Xiaohu was overjoyed and pulled two silver dollars from his pocket, stuffing them into the man's hand and pleading:
"Could you please take us there?"
The villagers glanced down at the silver dollars in their hands.
Knowing the principle of not flaunting wealth, he quickly stuffed the silver dollar into his pocket and then smiled and said it was no problem.
Li Xiaohu beckoned Partridge Whistle and the others to follow.
Then he blew a strange whistle, summoning the cats to follow.
The cats reluctantly jumped off the Iron-Headed Dragon King's corpse, and before leaving, they didn't forget to bite off a large piece of meat, eating as they ran.
The villagers led Li Xiaohu and the others straight into the nearest county town.
There is also a city wall at the entrance to the county town.
Judging from its style, it resembles the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty.
The city wall has been weathered beyond recognition, the gate has collapsed, and the city wall has been blown away by the wind, leaving only a dilapidated city gate.
Two large, weathered characters are atop the city gate.
"Quran".
Gulan County is not large in size.
The villagers led a few people and they crossed the entire Gulan County in just half an hour, arriving at the Longling Maze on the other side.
The Mysterious Caves of Longling.
Although it is called "Dragon Ridge", it is actually one of the few remaining spurs of the Qinling Mountains that extend to this point.
It's actually just a mountainous area with low altitude, but the terrain is very complex.
A large part of the reason is this.
It's because of the "maze".

The terrain of Longling is very complex.
The hills and valleys are uneven and undulating.
It is also filled with pits and caves of all sizes.
Li Xiaohu and his group were standing on a hilltop.
Look around.
The mountains and hills are covered with dark caves.
It looks as if this yellow earth is covered with black spots.
The villagers suddenly spoke up to remind everyone.
"You guys better stick close to me from now on."
“On this land, one wrong move and you could fall into one of those holes.”
"If no one had rescued you, you wouldn't have been able to climb up; you would have just been waiting to die inside!"
Li Xiaohu nodded to indicate that he understood.
Only then did the villagers continue to lead the way.
They were led along the continuous mountain ridge of Longling, over hill after hill, until they finally arrived at a ravine.
The villagers pointed to a spot in the middle of the ravine and said, "Look."
“The Fishbone Temple is right there.”
Following the direction of his gaze, Li Xiaohu indeed saw a fishbone temple under construction.
You can vaguely see a few figures busy inside.
"Heh." Partridge Whistle suddenly chuckled inexplicably.
Everyone turned to look at him, puzzled.
Seeing that the villagers continued to lead the way, Partridge Whistle slowed his pace slightly and explained to them in a low voice:
"It seems that Brother Xiaohu's senior brother has really found the location of the ancient tomb."
The girl in red asked, puzzled, "Why do you say that?"
"How did you know that?"
Partridge Whistle continued, "Although I am not very knowledgeable about feng shui, I have some understanding of it."
“I know that temples for praying to gods and Buddhas should absolutely not be built in such places.”
“In these mountain valleys, there is neither sky above nor water below; and it is a shady place where there is no sunlight for a long time, so the yin energy is heavy and the yang energy is little.”
"Ordinary people wouldn't even bury their bodies in a place like this, let alone a temple dedicated to gods?"
“So…” Partridge Whistle smiled with amusement.
"Xiao Hu's senior brother was probably using the construction of the Fishbone Temple as a cover to secretly dig a tunnel inside the temple."
