Chapter 1714: Hot Spring Tribe
After a half-day walk, Ling'er and the apple-picking team led Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu to a hidden valley.
This valley is covered with dense primeval forests, surrounded by mountains thousands of meters high, and there are many cliffs, if Ling'er takes away the secret passage, no matter from what direction it will not be able to enter this valley.
In the center of the valley grows a mutated yellow horn tree, each of which has a diameter of several tens of meters, and the largest one grows more than a hundred meters in diameter, which is extremely huge. The human home is on top of these mutated yellowhorn trees, all simple wooden houses. There are a few families on this tree, a few families on that tree, and the whole tribe has more than 100 wooden houses, which is a few hundred people.
Fang Ningtao's hometown, this is just a bigger village.
This tribe has a name, and it is called the "Hot Springs" tribe.
Next to this tribe, there is a hot spring in a cave at the foot of a mountain peak, hence the name.
These were all told to Ning Tao by Ling'er on the road.
As soon as the team entered the tribe, ropes fell from the huge yellow horn trees, and there were rope ladders, and the men and women of the tribe, old and young, grabbed the ropes and slid down, and some stepped on the rope ladders to go down.
The first to run over was a group of children, chattering.
"Uncle Qiangshi, what delicious food have you brought back?" a little girl ran towards Qiangshi, her little face full of happy smiles.
Qiang Shi made a straight face, and said angrily: "Go away, don't bother me!"
The little girl was stunned on the spot, her big black eyes full of tears of grievance.
Ling'er walked over and glared at Qiang Shi: "Xiaoyu is usually the closest to you, you are even fierce to her, is there anything wrong with you?"
The strong stone was about to attack, Ning Tao's body flickered, and he instantly broke through a distance of more than ten meters and came to his side, and the cruel words he was about to say just now swallowed back hard.
Ning Tao smiled and said lightly, "Do you want me to take you to the sky to collect the moon again?"
Qiangshi: "......"
Ning Tao lowered his voice: "If you dare to offend me and bully the clansmen again, the next time I take you to heaven, I will let you come down by yourself." ”
Qiangshi's face suddenly lost even a trace of blood.
The wicked need to be grinded by the wicked.
Ling'er hugged Xiaoyu in her arms and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, don't be sad, we picked a few Lingping apples and came back, and I'll give you my share later." ”
"Sister Ling'er, you are so good. Xiaoyu buried his head in Ling'er's arms, and was too timid to look at the strong stone.
A dozen apples were divided, and almost all of them were children, and a few teenagers.
Ling'er also had a share, but she didn't ask for it, but gave it to Xiaoyu and another child.
Ning Tao said curiously: "You went to such a far place and risked so much to pick back those apples, why are only children and teenagers there?"
Ling'er said: "That's Lingping, we give Lingping to children and teenagers to eat, in order to awaken the spiritual veins in their bodies, and have the opportunity to become Lingwu in the future." ”
"Spirit Warrior?" Ning Tao heard about it for the first time, and he was very curious.
Ling'er looked at Ning Tao with the same eyes: "Brother Hero, aren't you a spirit warrior?"
Ning Tao was stunned for a moment.
He was sure that he was not a spirit warrior, he was a god of destiny, he was a god.
But there is no need to tell Ling'er.
He changed the way he asked the question: "How many spirit warriors are there in your tribe?"
Ling'er burst out laughing: "Ouch, my hero brother, are you a wild fruit in the forest as a spirit warrior, our tribe is a small tribe, and there is no one." That's why we took such a big risk to pick apples, and we were counting on one of these children to awaken and become a spirit warrior. ”
Ning Tao said: "Before, I saw you jump one by one, and you jumped on the apple tree more than ten meters high, if you are not considered a spirit warrior, what is the standard of a spirit warrior?"
But without waiting for Ling'er to answer his question, a white-bearded old man suddenly jumped up from the ground, jumped lightly into the air at a height of more than ten meters, and then grabbed a rope hanging from a yellow horn tree, linked his hands, and climbed up with a few swishs.
Ning Tao was stunned.
This old man's skills are put in his hometown, which is definitely the level of Ouyang Feng or Huang Yaoshi, but here he is just a bad old man who is dying.
He suddenly felt that his question was superfluous, so he stopped asking. Although it was also the earth, it was completely different from the earth he was familiar with. And this earth has experienced the so-called era of the Great Explosion, the air is full of spiritual energy, and there are more natural energy factors, even insects can evolve into advanced intelligent life, and establish a civilization that belongs to insects, so the bad old man of human beings can jump more than ten meters high, climb rock with bare hands or something, which has become a very normal thing.
"Brother Hero, are you ......" Ling'er stopped talking, her eyes full of concern.
Ning Tao put away his messy thoughts and said casually, "Is it nothing?"
Only then did Ling'er speak: "Brother Hero, are you amnesia? I see that you don't remember a lot of things, it doesn't matter to you, right?"
Ning Tao was slightly stunned, and then said: "Yes, yes, yes, I just have amnesia, I don't remember many things, you have to talk to me more and help me recover my memory." ”
is worried that it is difficult to explain, and she said that he has amnesia, and he even saves the explanation, and the disease of amnesia is deeply in line with his wishes.
Bi Mingzhu also chimed in: "Yes, I also have amnesia, and I don't remember many things." ”
Ning Tao: "......"
Lao Bi, what are you doing here?
"Otherwise, you can live in my house, and I will tell you slowly. Ling'er said.
"Okay, then my wife and I will live in your house. Ning Tao didn't think much about it, and agreed in one bite.
Bi Mingzhu asked: "Miss Ling'er, who are some people in your family, is there enough room?"
Ling'er said: "My parents are gone, I am the only one in my house, you can live in my parents' room, I will go and clean it up for you." ”
Ning Tao smiled: "Then you have to work." ”
"Heroic brother, heroic sister-in-law, please follow me. Ling'er led the way.
Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu followed Ling'er.
Bi Mingzhu whispered: "Old send, why do you want to live here?"
Ning Tao also whispered: "We are just here, and we don't know a lot of things, so let's stay here for a while." ”
Bi Mingzhu nodded: "Okay, we don't have anywhere to go anyway." ”
A group of children and teenagers ate their share of Lingping and sat cross-legged on the ground, folding their palms together in front of their chests. All of them are in this position, and it looks like a group of young monks meditating.
But it was definitely not a monk meditating, and Ning Tao soon sensed that spiritual energy was gathering from all directions, flocking to the group of teenagers.
That group of teenagers was cultivating.
Ning Tao sighed in his heart, this is really a strange world.
The ape-men took the route of scientific and technological development, invented guns and steam trains, and built large-scale cities, while humans hid in the forests to survive, and still took the route of martial arts.
So what is the route of the intelligent life evolved by insects, that is, the Kun people, and their civilization?
There is no way to know.
Ling'er came to the largest yellow horn tree, bent her legs and kicked them, her delicate body swooped up, and then she grabbed the rope and climbed up after flying to a height of more than ten meters, and her movements were comparable to that of a spirit monkey.
Ning Tao looked up, unable to take his eyes off it. In his sight, there was a white full moon with no horns, which was very beautiful.
Bi Mingzhu also saw it, and said narrowly: "Old send, where do you look?"
Ning Tao coughed dryly, still maintaining a posture of looking up, and said seriously: "This tree is so tall." ”
Bi Mingzhu rolled her eyes.
In a blink of an eye, Ling'er climbed up, and then poked his head out from a big branch dozens of meters high, and said in a loud voice: "Heroic brother, heroic sister-in-law, come up quickly!"
Only then did Ning Tao retract his gaze, grabbed Bi Mingzhu's waist with one hand, bent his legs, jumped up lightly, and came to Ling'er's side with a whoosh.
Ling'er's eyes were full of admiration: "Brother Hero, when can I be as powerful as you." ”
Ning Tao said with a smile: "It's simple, I'll transfer a little skill to you when I go back, and help you get through the second vein of Rendu." ”
Ling'er stared at Ning Tao and said curiously: "Brother Hero, what is the second pulse of Ren Du?"
"This ...... You'll know when the time comes. Ning Tao just said a joke casually, but he didn't expect the little girl to take it seriously.
Who knows, Bi Mingzhu interjected: "Old send, you said that you will transfer the power to Miss Ling'er, it won't be transmitted with a USB cable, right?"
Ning Tao snorted, not almost laughing, but almost spurting out a mouthful of old blood.
"Sister-in-law hero, what is Niu Er than the connecting line?" Ling'er asked curiously.
Bi Mingzhu glanced at Ning Tao.
Ning Tao blinked violently, with a threatening look in his eyes.
You say, you say, as long as you dare to say it, I'll pump you with a USB cable later.
Bi Mingzhu smiled: "Lead the way, let's talk as we go." ”
"Well, the hero brother and the hero sister-in-law, please come with me. Ling'er led the way.
This largest yellow-horned tree has the most wooden houses on it, and some branches are ten or twenty meters wide, which is equivalent to a four-lane road, which is very wide.
Ling'er pointed to a wooden house at the end of a big tree branch and said, "That's my home." Then she pointed to a huge branch above her head, "The patriarch's house is up there, you can't see it here, you can see it if you climb up, but it's a pity ......"
Her expression darkened.
Ning Tao comforted: "Don't worry, I will help you rescue your patriarch." ”
"Well, thank you, Big Brother Hero. Ling'er was happy again, suddenly remembered something, and asked again, "Heroic sister-in-law, what is Niu Er than the connecting line?"
Bi Mingzhu laughed: "USB cable, ......"
She didn't seem to know how to describe it, but she suddenly pointed to a small branch next to her and said, "Look at that branch, that's it." ”
Ning Tao glanced at the chopstick-thick twig, and had an inexplicable headache.
