"Isn't the Protector of Wu Yan curious about how the Great Divine Tree, which has flourished for thousands of years, could have died?"

"All things have a death. According to the cognition of our cultivators, even if heaven and earth have a day when their longevity is exhausted, although the Great Divine Tree is sacred and extraordinary, it will not be able to escape reincarnation after all. It has grown for thousands of years, and it should have lived to the end of its life, and it is normal for it to die. ”

"But according to our cultivators' cognition, this life of the Great God Tree is too strange. Don't you think Wu Yan's protector thinks?"

When Wu Yan heard him say this, he thought about it seriously and reacted: "Everything has a spirit. Liu Nansheng, who is famous in human society, has extremely high qualifications, so he has cultivated in five hundred years with the body of a willow tree. Ordinary trees can live for eight or nine hundred years to give birth to intelligence. No matter how bad it is, if you can live for a thousand years, you will no longer be an ordinary tree. Since this great sacred tree can become the sacred tree of your Nightfish Clan, its wonder is far beyond ordinary tree species, how come you haven't heard of it becoming a monster after thousands of years of life?"

Devouring the deer nodded and said, "Wu Yan's protector is really clever. This time, we are going to uncover the secret of the death of the Great God Tree. ”

"Isn't the Patriarch of the Devouring Deer asking this seat to watch you crack the mystery of the death of the Divine Tree, right?" Wu Yan half-jokingly said, although the death of the Great Divine Tree is extremely important to the Nightfish Clan, but now that a big war is about to start, how can you care about the cause of death of a tree at this juncture?

Unexpectedly, Devourer's answer turned out to be in the affirmative: "Of course, there is a great mystery in the death of the Great God Tree. Devouring the Rex continued, "The Great God Tree has grown for thousands of years, and the amount of Heaven and Earth Essence it has absorbed is extremely large, and when it dies, where did those Heaven and Earth Essence go? ”

"Aren't all the nutrients or essences absorbed by trees in the fruits?" said Wu Yan naturally.

"That's just a small part. "Most of them have been transmitted to the ground with the roots of the Great God Tree. ”

"What's underground?" Wu Yan asked.

"When you get to the place, Wu Yan's protector will naturally know. "The devourer said mysteriously

Eater took Wu Yan and the others to a dangerous mountain cliff, and Eater pointed to the bottom of the cliff and said, "It's down here." After saying that, he jumped down first, and the six old men followed him and jumped down without hesitation.

Yu Yuan glanced at Wu Yan, showed a kind smile, and said, "Lord Protector, I'll go first." ”

Seeing Wu Yan nodding at him, Eater Yuan turned and jumped down the cliff. His cultivation was far inferior to that of his father and the six elders, so he didn't dare to jump directly from the air, but clinged to the edge of the cliff, clasping his hands on the protruding rocks and tree roots and other debris, and jumped down one by one. Wu Yan saw that several of them had gone down, and walked slowly to the edge of the cliff, and when he looked down, he saw that the devouring deer and the six old men were gone, and he could only see the devouring abyss moving down against the cliff.

Wu Yan's body jumped lightly, and the whole person was like a red dandelion, slowly drifting towards the bottom of the cliff.

Soon she had surpassed the Abyss, and after falling down for hundreds of meters, she finally saw a wide opening, where the Devourer and the six old men were already standing and waiting.

Wu Yan floated into the entrance of the cave and stood down steadily, she looked into the cave at random, only to see that it was pitch black inside, as if it was bottomless. Wu Yan was surprised that there was such a cave in this half-cliff location.

The few of them waited for a few more moments, and the devouring abyss also came down, and he took out a small flashlight like a lamp, and when he opened it, the whole cave was illuminated.

Wu Yan covered his mouth and chuckled: "I thought that the Yelu clan was isolated from the world, but I didn't expect to see such an out-of-date object here. ”

Yu Yuan smiled and said, "My lord, times have changed. We cultivators also have to keep pace with the times, except for the high-rise buildings in the nightray lair, there is still no shortage of other things. You can't explore with torches in hand like our ancient ancestors. ”

Wu Yan was amused, grinned, and said, "That's what I said." ”

Devourer waved his hand, "Let's go inside." ”

Everyone returned to their previous formation again, led by Devouring Monkey, followed by Devouring Yuan and Wu Yan, and six old men following behind. They walked and walked to a fork, a gentle tunnel to the left, a tunnel with a staircase to the right, and the devourer led everyone to turn right, and walked up the steps, and after a while it was another fork, but this time it was going down, and after walking for a while, they came to a square room, and everyone passed through the room and continued along the tunnel.

After walking for about half a day, I can't remember how many turns I made and how many tunnels I walked through. Wu Yan was dizzy, and he only felt that this underground tunnel was connected in all directions, but each had its own place. It's like an underground labyrinth, and you can't remember the way unless you go around hundreds or thousands of times.

Wu Yan observed the traces of time in the tunnel, as if it had been a long time, and she asked, "When was this hole dug?"

"About 3,000 years ago. The devourer thought about it seriously and replied.

Wu Yan nodded, she had heard of the history of the Nightfish Clan, almost as old as humans.

In the period of innate farming, when the ancestors of human beings were still drinking blood, the Yelu clan already existed.

The Nightfish and Terrans are like different branches of the same ancestor, and in the earliest days, the difference between the two branches was not obvious, they both hunted wild beasts and drank blood to survive. As for the behavior of the Nightfish tribe sneaking up on human tribes and biting people and sucking blood during the full moon every month, it was not too strange for humans at that time, because if there was a war between human tribes at that time, the killed and captured people would also be eaten as food. Therefore, the behavior of the night ray to hunt and eat living people is not to be regarded as an alien by the human race.

The only difference is that the Nightfish are afraid of the sun, a trait that has been present since the time of their ancestors, and they almost never go out during the day. At that time, when human beings did not build houses and nests, and slept in the wilderness with the sky as a bed made of the earth, or burrowed into natural caves to escape the wind and rain, the night tribe learned from the gophers, digging large holes in the ground and hiding in them to avoid the sun. As the Nightfish changed from generation to generation, they became more and more experienced in digging holes, and with enough time to dig a large underground palace underground.

They stay comfortably in the shady underground palace during the day, and come out to hunt for food at night, and their recipes are almost no different from the human diets, and what humans can eat, the Nightfish can also eat, but the Nightfish's recipes have one more necessary food - human blood.

The norantes are good at eating human blood, but in the primitive society at that time, although there were no constraints from many rules and regulations in later generations, the norantes would not often go to the human tribes to hunt humans, because the physique of primitive people was not worse than the nightmarls of the same period, and in a one-on-one fight, an ordinary norantre could not easily defeat an ordinary primitive, and even in a war with a tribe as a unit, a group of norantes did not have an absolute advantage.

Therefore, the night rays rarely take the initiative to provoke the primitives, only on the night of the full moon, when they are really hungry and thirsty, the night rays will rush into the primitive tribes in groups as if they are not dying, and rush and fight indiscriminately.

The process of the battle is extremely tragic, a primitive person will often be beaten by three or five night rays, even scratching and biting, being sucked and bitten to death on the spot, or being grabbed by multiple night rays and forcibly dragged aside, and the same can not avoid being bitten to death;

When the Nightmares have ingested enough health to sustain their lives, the battle is over, and the Nightmares who were not killed in the melee retreat in droves, and if there are unlucky primitives, they are likely to be kidnapped by the Nightmares at the end of the battle, perhaps eaten halfway back to the nest, or taken into the cave to eat.

After the Nightfish retreated, the human tribe was left with a mess of corpses, and primitive people would not eat the Nightfish, because the flesh of the Nightfish was sour when bitten into the mouth. So their way of dealing with it is to throw the corpses that are left behind and bury them far away.
