Chapter 45: The Saddest Mushroom in the World
Until now, Liu Yeshao, who was secretly sad sitting on the plane, didn't find anything wrong, which actually didn't blame him, the hazy feeling was like in a dream, but the real touch of this illusion and the unrelieved past of that scene really made him subconsciously unwilling to accept the occurrence and direction of this matter.
Is this the direction of the matter? Is he the only survivor? Although the details of this scene are different, the trend of development is exactly the same as in memory, if you say that you are the only survivor, you have crossed by mistake, leaving aside the mistakes and mistakes made in the mission, resulting in the injury of your teammates, and finally the big explosion of that scale, wouldn't you be buried forever in the cold seabed of the Arctic Ocean with the island?
Only yourself, only yourself left because of the crossing. On the plane at this moment, Liu Yeshao was a little sober, because he knew that according to the logical order of development, if he was still alive, he could only leave by helicopter, and the process of leaving was completely absent, besides, he could actually survive, but because he crossed for unknown reasons.
And those teammates who are like brothers and brothers may really have sacrificed.
Liu Yeshao knew that he must be in some kind of strange illusion, and he also guessed that there was a high probability that this was the answer to the mystery of the negative impact of this mushroom forest and the disappearance of those Sword Sect disciples, but the death of his brothers, the sinking and disappearing island in front of his eyes, and all the memories on the earth, at this moment, he did not want to wake up.
He fell into this endless grief until emotion prevailed over reason, and he could not extricate himself from accepting the departure of his seven good brothers.
The willow leaf tops in the mushroom forest were long gone, only the umbrella tree he had been leaning against was still there, and the trunk of the umbrella tree was faintly glowing, breathing like a spiritual animal.
At the same time, Li Jianxian was carefully searching in the depths of the mushroom forest, he didn't feel the strange, non-existent power, and the strange smell in his nose, but whenever he subconsciously used the source qi in his body to get rid of it, and when the simple source qi was released, the smell and power disappeared, and there seemed to be some kind of source beast around him, but the divine sense was emitted but nothing was found.
Li Jianxian's mind was full of question marks, but he couldn't get an answer. In addition to the fact that the willow leaf tops are from the earth, and recognize that the essence of this forest is overgrown with huge mushrooms, there is no concept of mushrooms in this world, and those so-called umbrella trees can't feel the source qi breath of their strong strength, Li Jianxian naturally doesn't think that the problem lies in these umbrella trees.
What can be felt is that these umbrella trees all have some ability to absorb source qi, each tree has a different ability level, but this is not surprising, everyone knows that the underground of this green realm forest is a huge source, although no one has dug this forest, explore carefully, after all, the abundance of source qi in the town mirror mountain will not deceive people.
The real body of the willow leaf tip is fifty meters underground at the moment, the space here is huge, like an underground square, look at it, densely packed with rhizomes of different thicknesses, these rhizomes look full of flesh, plump, cut two knives casually, sprinkle some oil and stir-fry it is a good dish.
This fifty meters underground place is very rich in source gas, it is really the source of the source, almost become a sea of source liquid, all the source gas is transmitted down through the rhizome here to purify, accumulate, and here in addition to the rhizome, there are more human bones, and there are some large and small source beast bones, all of which are confused by the so-called oasis forest to the dream realm, and they are consumed here alive.
No one knows when and how the first mushroom of the Oasis Forest appeared, and no one knows when the first mushroom had spiritual intelligence, and then gradually devoured all the source beasts that could be devoured, and then slowly grew and spread their own rhizomes underground, blocking the underground roots of other plants, occupying their source gas resources, and helping themselves to grow in a terrifying way.
The mushroom devours the forest, but also protects the forest, even though it is the only living thing in the forest.
After nearly a thousand years, the source qi of the entire desert was absorbed by this mushroom, and the mushroom had some intelligence, it knew that these source qi was the only way it could grow, but it also found that it could not absorb more of these source qi, so its mushroom descendants grew more and more, until the entire forest was occupied by its mushrooms, because the existence of the desert could not spread outward.
Another day, two god-like powers duel here, one died, and the body turned into a mountain, suppressed here, and all the later people said that this mountain suppressed the fury of the wild wind desert, and no one knew the true origin of this mountain, and no one knew that the only mushroom in the world was here, spreading and growing, so large that no one could imagine it, and no one would believe it.
Until the sword gate appeared on Zhenjing Mountain, and the mushroom's spiritual wisdom was enlightened to a new goal, it also wanted to become him or her, become a human, and have more pursuits, but it didn't know what to do, that Zhenjing Mountain was an untouchable existence, the mountain transformed by the powerful body, fierce and dangerous, the kind of power that can only be felt when it reaches a certain realm, stimulates it every day.
There are more and more human beings on Zhenjing Mountain, until every year there are human beings who come to its embrace, and they do not "cut down trees", do not harm, do not develop, and do not do any strange things, but try their best to walk in from one side and walk out from the other. One day, a young man failed to come out of the forest, not because the mushroom hurt him, but because he himself died in the so-called "wild experience", and the mushroom accepted him, absorbed him, felt him, and empathized with his experience.
At the beginning, it secretly killed a few disciples of the Zhenjing Mountain Sword Sect who came to practice, and felt the rich experience and wonderful life in the minds of those people, it couldn't do it anymore, from killing a few, to killing a batch, to killing all the people who came to this forest.
Those who can't be controlled by the illusion are put aside, and those who can be controlled are dragged into the ground first, invading their memories, tampering with their dreams, torturing or enjoying them, letting these people die in pain or happiness, and it gets its own satisfaction in the process.
It sounds like a crazy mushroom king, and indeed, it is a crazy mushroom, it has spiritual intelligence, and it also knows how good a life is for a creature with spiritual intelligence, it has the ability to cultivate, but it is limited by its own species, it is unwilling, but it is trapped by the desert and helpless, it wants to be stronger, but because it is just a mushroom, it has to leave only sadness, so every human being who comes in is the meaning of its existence.
The grief of the willow leaf is subconsciously amplified, and man is a very wonderful creature, even in the source dust world, it is the same, it may be a powerful near immortal, but the feelings of human beings will still make all kinds of changes in the body, sad to death, happy to be sad, these feelings to the extreme cause the brain to be unable to control and accept, and then lead to various functions of the body to begin to disorder, and finally go to the Elysium, or the hell of extreme sorrow.
That is, death.
Emotions may be one of the great flaws of human beings, but it is this same flaw that gives the human soul.
The mushroom has no soul, but it wants to have it, and it doesn't know what death is or what it does.
Willow Yesheng's subconscious was telling himself that all this was not normal, but his feelings told him that he should be immersed in sadness now. But he is not an emotional person after all, he is an agent who is rational to the extreme, even if the mushroom king in the outside world has a super high cultivation realm, even if the mushroom king has an incomprehensible ability.
It's a pity that I met Liu Yeshao, a top agent who can keep his sanity no matter what the situation, but it's just a powerful psychedelic agent, I Liu Yeshao is crossing, but I didn't sit in this helicopter as a deserter, and those teammates who died tragically, how could they be so unexplained sacrifices?
Reason gradually occupies the high ground, and sadness seems to occupy the mind for a moment, but with the recovery of reason, it disappears in another instant.
Just when Liu Yeshao realized that he was really in some kind of hallucination, the familiar voice and the familiar words sounded in the sea of consciousness: "Exhausted, automatic protection." Returned to Zhihai Projection. After that, he returned to the space of Zhihai suspended with nine balls of light, I don't know where it is, I think it should belong to the brain, but it is not in the same dimension as the brain, independent but connected, he can even see himself through his own eyes in Zhihai.
Now he is floating in a strange place, and in mid-air, he is full of roots and tendrils wrapped around his head, not so much floating, but a high-density source qi holding him, and the roots are pulling him at the same time, preventing him from falling.
The roots shone brightly, the light became more and more dim, dim to the point of no brilliance, and the roots moved upwards until they pulled him to the ground, and the roots quickly left his head, and the consciousness of the willow leaf tips was slowly relieved, and he gradually felt the control of his body.
Before returning to the ground, many faces appeared in his field of vision, and one of them was Gan Xuanning. He wanted to shout here, but he couldn't shout, he could only watch himself being pulled back to the ground in a state of exhaustion, but now that he knew Gan Xuanning's whereabouts, the next question was how to deal with it.
Liu Yeshao did enter a state of exhaustion, and after his consciousness returned to his body, he couldn't even lift his hands, and he couldn't figure it out, if he was exhausted and forcibly pulled back to Zhihai, if his physical body was killed by a sneak attack, would his divine consciousness dissipate? If this situation exists, then wouldn't the so-called protection of this damn system be a bullshit?
Liu Yeshao obviously didn't have any exercises, but his body automatically and quickly recovered the source qi, Liu Yeshao closed his eyes, recalling what happened just now, the real illusion, so that his memory that was about to disappear came back to his mind, and the thought of going home was almost impossible, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eye.
