Chapter 105: The Endless Pine Forest Hides a Crisis
"You don't have to be afraid. Li Hu turned to look at everyone, "Because here, fear has no effect." ”
Seeing that Li Hu seemed to be very good at talking, someone asked in a low voice: "Little immortal, can you let me go back, I still have relatives at home, after I go back, I will burn incense and pray for the Buddha every day for you." ”
Li Hu showed a hint of ridicule: "Walking here, do you still want to go out?"
"The way we came just now was bought with the lives of hundreds of people. There is only one way for you to live. Li Hu pointed behind him and continued: "There are countless traps, whether it is your burial ground, or the turning point of your life, it depends on your fate." ”
"Little fairy, I beg you to let me go, I don't want to think about it, I beg you. "Someone knelt on the ground and pleaded.
Li Hu was unmoved, but Lu Yi's eyes were wavering.
"Even we will be discarded at any time, how can you save them?" Li Hu knew Lu Yi's heart, and the voice reminded him.
"You can wait here to die, or you can go ahead and gamble your life, but don't think about turning back, the people who are guarding the road will kill you. ”
"What kind of trap is here?" Shangguan Zhengtian asked.
"Before it is discovered, no one knows, it is different. Lu Yi responded.
"What did you encounter before that?" Shangguan Zhengtian continued to ask.
"Formation, poisonous mist, scorpions, demons...... It's hard to prevent. Lu Yi wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Hu.
Li Hu said: "You can do whatever you want, if anyone is lucky enough to encounter a treasure or something, the iron spear gate can directly put him in the door without looking at the bones." ”
"Whether you go or stay, you can do it yourself. After speaking, Li Hu pulled Lu Yi forward and continued to walk.
The man who knelt down hurriedly got up and chased after him, and two others followed.
Li Hu and Lu Yi walked very fast, and the three of them could still see the figures of the two from afar, but the green pines here were extremely dense, and the three of them walked slowly, and after a few turns, they lost their traces.
Looking back, they had forgotten where they had come, and fear slowly crept up in the hearts of the three of them.
"Brother Huzi, why don't you wait for those three?" Lu Yi asked in a low voice.
"If I could, I would love to save the entire mine. But you and I are still struggling in the hands of others, even if we wait for those three people now, what can we do? Even if we take them out of this pine forest, what can we do?
Cultivators are high up to the common people, far away from the world like immortals, and Lu Yi has had endless admiration for these people since he was a child.
But when he and Li Hu stepped into it, they found that the immortals in the mouths of this group of people were no different from those ordinary people who ate rice bran and swallowed pickles, the same seven poor and six desires, the same life and death, sorrows and sorrows, and even their ideas were more extreme than the neighborhoods they were familiar with.
In the past few months, he felt that more important than stepping into the cultivation was that he had seen through the true face of this group of people, a group of demons in human skin.
So he naturally understands what Li Hu said, but he is a person after all.
With a slight sigh in his heart, he and Li Hu walked into the distance, they had other things: the previous group of people were led in the distance, and they were going to record where they had found or where they had died.
And the three people who followed Li Hu and Lu Yi into the pine forest before held hands and began to slowly grope.
For them, anything related to spiritual practice has a veil of mystery that makes them awe-inspired, and at this time, they can't be more careful.
"There is nothing here except these broken green pines, and I can't find a branch or stone if I want to!" said one of them.
"It's so cold, let's find a way out quickly, or we will freeze to death here in a short time." ”
"Then take the green pine to find the way. Another man had an idea, and walked directly to the approaching green pine and stretched out his hand to break its branches.
"Ahh
As soon as the palm of the man's hand touched the pine leaves, a cold current visible to the naked eye flowed from the pine tree, spreading along the palm of his hand like the arm, and the man stepped back a little, and saw that his arm was broken, and the broken end was still hanging on the pine tree.
Fear and pain were intertwined in his heart, and at this time, he saw the green pines around him like a tiger and a wolf, ignoring the remaining two, his mouth screamed indiscriminately, and he fled like a headless fly.
The other two were close together, trembling like chaff, and suddenly, an even more terrible scream rang out, which was immediately stopped, leaving only the resolute echo echoing through the pine forest.
Here, Jiang Yan'er looked at Shangguan Zhengtian: "Let's go, shall we?"
Shangguan Zhengtian nodded lightly, tilted his head and said, "You'd better stay here." ”
Then Shangguan Zhengtian took the lead and walked deeper, followed by Jiang Yan'er.
The remaining dozens of people hesitated, they didn't have the slightest affection for Shangguan Zhengtian, but they had a completely different attitude towards Jiang Yan'er.
Seeing Jiang Yan'er walking forward with Shangguan Zhengtian, more than ten people hurriedly chased after him.
It's a pity that after two turns, there was no trace of the two of them.
Shangguan Zhengtian and Jiang Yan'er were as fast as a deer, and a few ups and downs disappeared from those people's field of vision.
"You say ...... here" Jiang Yan'er glanced around, and when she confirmed that no one else was nearby, she was just about to say something when she was stopped by Shangguan Zhengtian.
Although she had doubts, Jiang Yan'er still stopped obediently.
The two walked slowly in the dense forest, and after a long while, Shangguan Zhengtian finally stopped and turned around: "It should be okay now, what do you have to say." ”
Jiang Yan'er raised her eyebrows and looked around carefully, and there seemed to be no difference from before.
"Just now, someone?" Jiang Yan'er was a little incredulous.
"I don't know. Shangguan Zhengtian shook his head slightly, "But I always feel that someone is peeping." ”
"And now?" Jiang Yan'er asked.
"It should be fine now, what were you going to say just now?" Shangguan Zhengtian looked at Jiang Yan'er.
"Well, don't you think it's particularly strange here?" Jiang Yan'er said.
"It's very strange, but if it's not strange here, isn't it even more strange?" Shangguan Zhengtian looked around, with a strange expression on his face.
Jiang Yan'er paced and said slowly: "A large forest of green pines, there is not a single weed, the cold is pressing, but there is no frost and snow......"
At this time, Jiang Yan'er looked at Shangguan Zhengtian and said with a smile: "I suddenly remembered that we haven't officially cooperated yet." ”
"I'm here to look for elixir, and if there are any other treasures, you can pick them. Shangguan Zhengtian was blunt.
"Looking for the elixir to find here?" Jiang Yan'er's eyes were a little rounder, and she was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "Okay, I really hope that there will be an elixir here." I'm not here looking for any treasures, of course, if there are any, but my main purpose is to find out what's here, and what they've done to the people. ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Yan'er's face showed a bit of seriousness, and her tone became sharp: "Now, I know what they did to the people, and I never thought that they would dare to be so rampant. ”
"Well, looks like we can go the same way. Shangguan Zhengtian nodded, raised his steps and continued to move forward.
"Wait, what's your level?" Jiang Yan'er chased after her.
Shangguan Zhengtian looked at Jiang Yan'er with a hint of doubt.
"Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm just trying to weigh whether we will fight or leave when we encounter the enemy later, and knowing your combat strength, it is also convenient to make a choice. Let's talk about me first, I can fight against those who have just entered the void. ”
Between the words, Jiang Yan'er carried a hint of pride.
"It can be cut into nothingness. Shangguan Zhengtian left after speaking, leaving Jiang Yan'er in a daze.
"Alas, alas, you make it clear, what is the meaning of being able to cut off the void, don't talk nonsense, when the real fight starts, it will kill people. Jiang Yan'er hurriedly caught up after relieving herself, chattering around Shangguan Zhengtian.
Although the two of them walked normally, their movements were not slow at all, but the surrounding scenery did not change, and looking ahead, there was still an endless pine forest.
"This should be an illusion, but ......" Jiang Yan'er was a little puzzled, this place seemed to be false or not, and it seemed to be true or not true, which made her very confused.
"It's supposed to be a projection, and the space doesn't look stable. Shangguan Zhengtian's eyes were golden, and he walked faster and faster, and Jiang Yan'er had to run to keep up.
Finally, in one place, Shangguan Zhengtian stopped, and Jiang Yan'er almost collided with him.
"Be careful. Shangguan Zhengtian reminded, grabbed the girl's hand as he spoke, and then moved forward, and the traces of the two disappeared in an instant, as if they had never appeared.
Before Jiang Yan'er could break free, the sky swirled, light and darkness alternated, and it was dark in front of her first, and then the dim light was bright again.
Jiang Yan'er's face was slightly red, and she found that she didn't know when she threw herself into Shangguan Zhengtian's arms.
She tilted her head and looked at Shangguan Zhengtian slightly with the help of her afterglow, her face was still as calm as usual, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and let go of her hand, and the bodies of the two fit apart.
"This should be the way it is. Shangguan Zhengtian's calm voice was solemn.
There seemed to be a thick dark cloud above, and only a faint light entered the place, and there was an eerie darkness in the darkness.
Through the ghostly light, Jiang Yan'er looked at the surrounding environment, the still boundless pine forest, all of them were withered yellow, and the ground under her feet seemed to be dyed by countless blood donations, and everything she could see was dark red, with a strong smell of blood.
The cold here is thicker, Jiang Yan'er is already a little uncomfortable, she rubbed her hands and said, "How many breaths are here, go and see?"
"Hmm. ”
Jiang Yan'er and Shangguan Zhengtian walked side by side, the ground was like gelatin, and every step made a strange sound.
They didn't go far before the two of them saw one of the breaths they sensed, it was a broken corpse, the body was twisted and deformed, dry as firewood, countless tooth marks were all over the corpse, the head hung crookedly on the body at a strange angle, it would break at any time, and the fleshless face was hideous and distorted, and it was vaguely obvious that this person was wrapped in fear before his death.
"It's one of the three people chasing after the disciples of the Iron Spear Gate. Jiang Yan'er sighed.
Shangguan Zhengtian retracted his gaze and walked towards the two breaths that had gathered in the other place, and sure enough, they were the remaining two of the three.
The death of these two men was even more miserable, their bodies were like a broken doll, shattered, and their limbs were broken into several pieces and scattered all over the ground.
Jiang Yan'er's face turned white, and she didn't know whether she was afraid or angry.
An inexplicable chill rose in Shangguan Zhengtian's heart, and at this moment, Shangguan Zhengtian felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him around him.
