Earth Fire Chapter 49: The Bodhi Tree (2)
43.Linden (2)
There are eight sufferings in life, birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable, but throughout the ages, there is an endless stream of people who pursue immortality. However, there are also many people who seek to resurrect people from the dead. And the Bodhi fruit of the legendary Bodhi tree can "live the flesh and bones of the dead".
Lin Hainan lay on the bed and thought about the memories of the Bodhi tree in his memory, but this time he could remember very few things.
Lin Hainan's thoughts gradually became heavy, and his body slowly sank, until he fell asleep. When the sky was getting brighter, Lin Hainan woke up vaguely, thinking that today was resting, so he was not in a hurry to get up, but when he looked at his mobile phone, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.
Lin Hainan turned over and sat up violently, this sleep, he slept for eleven hours for so long?
Lin Hainan sent a message to the WeChat group of the Forbidden City team: Where are you all?
However, no one replied, so Lin Hainan had to hurriedly change his clothes and walk out of the door, but as soon as the door opened, Lin Hainan was stunned.
--Outside the gate is a dense and vast forest. The trees are tall and straight, beautiful and handsome, and when you look from the second floor where Lin Hainan is located, you can see deep and shallow layers of green leaves. This is a green ocean, and Lin Hainan is at the bottom of the sea, and you can see the sky light on the sea.
The walls of the corridor seem to have turned gray and decayed, and the building has become old and old.
Lin Hainan breathed a sigh of relief, it should have been teleported by the system of the holographic world. Walking to the door of Feng Jianfei's room to wake Feng Jianfei up, Feng Jianfei was really in a state of confusion.
"What's going on?" Feng Jianfei hadn't woken up yet, and Lin Hainan explained simply: "We should have touched the mission, but it was teleported by the system. You hurry up and pack up simply, and I'll go and tell Yumi and Xu Jin to get up. ”
Youmi and Xu Jin quickly packed up and got up, and the four of them walked out of Building A and looked around.
The other lodging buildings are still there, but all of them have become old as if they had spanned decades overnight. The obscure and gloomy walls are covered with mottled traces of time. The dense forest, however, shows great vitality and is waiting for Lin Hainan and others to explore.
"Bodhi tree, are we really going to find a tree?" Xu Jin asked after he got up and found out about the update of the system last night.
This assumption is not unreasonable, although the Forbidden City team has made various assumptions before, but after all, the "Bodhi Tree" is still identified as some kind of cultural relic, such as the Eye of Shiva, which is a cultural relic related to the key techniques of China's Tiangong organs. However, after being teleported, there were only trees except for the dormitory buildings.
"Take your time. Lin Hainan brushed aside the soft branches hanging down in front of him and continued to move forward.
Speaking of moving forward, the Forbidden City team did not determine a direction to move forward, and the more they went into the woods, the more complex and primitive the environment became. There are even various insects and snakes, and there are aerial roots on the ground that are exposed to the ground, and it is easy to fall if you are not careful.
"Oh my God, how long are we going to go?" If it weren't for some skills, Yumi might have been defeated by those wriggling bugs, black colored bugs, and flying bugs.
"We can't just walk around aimlessly. Anan, the tribe that Master Tunigira talked about before, should we go there?"
"That's what I thought. But the place where Master Tanigira took me through looked different from here, and I couldn't grasp the direction. Let's go a little further and see if we can come across that little stream. ”
"Streams, don't you hear the sound of water?"
Hearing this, Lin Hainan stopped and listened, very faintly, but he could indeed hear the sound of the water.
"That should be soon!" Yumi excitedly said, striding forward. However, an hour later, they actually reached their destination, and what they saw in front of them was not a small stream, but a river that was seven or eight meters wide!
The river is rushing, and in some places there are even small whirlpools. The flow is neither fast nor slow, the flow is large, it flows out of the dense forest, its source is not visible, and it goes into the dense forest again in the direction of the rushing stream.
"This is ......?!" Feng Jianfei was dumbfounded, "It's so beautiful...... The river parted the woods, revealing a clear blue sky overhead, as clear as a wash, cloudless.
"The environment has changed. "Stop Feng Jianfei who wants to go into the water," we walked upstream along the river. Stay safe, everyone. What are you going to do?"
Feng Jianfei stood by the river and waved his hand absently, "I'm just looking." Feng Jianfei looked around, picked up a stone from his feet, and threw it into the water with force, causing a splash with a "poof", and disappeared into the water without a trace. Feng Jianfei estimated the height of the splash, turned around and walked back to the team, "The water is very, deep, the flow speed is not fast, but the water flow is large, and there are dark vortices. ”
"Everybody watch your step. Lin Hainan prompted and took the lead in setting off.
The Forbidden City team went up the river and walked for a long time, but there were still only trees.
"Do you still need to walk for two hours?" Yumi looked at the dense forest in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. "This jungle is so big, how long do we have to look for it?"
Xu Jin opened the world channel to refresh, except for last night's news, there was no new news. "And I don't know what happened to the other teams. Xu Jin grabbed his hair, and felt another piece of hair on the back of his head, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"The other teams must have no clue. At least we have a destination to go to. "Lin Hai South Road.
However, after two hours, I still did not reach the source of the river. "The environment has changed, maybe the river is much longer than we expected. ”
"It was my negligence," Lin Hainan stopped the three people who continued to move forward, "The environment has changed, and now I don't know what period the oasis is in, and the path guided by Master Tanigira is indeed to go to the source of the river and then change the direction, but the actual stream is so different from the river here, the location of the source may have also changed, otherwise it is impossible to explain why we walked for two hours and still did not find the source." Lin Hainan chin silently, "It's very likely that we have missed the place where we need to change direction." ”
"Then what should I do now, do you want to find a sign?" Feng Jianfei asked with a frown.
Lin Hainan repeated the words of Master Tonigila at that time, and analyzed: "Let's look around first. ”
However, half an hour passed, and the four still did not find any signs.
Putting down the stone in his hand, Lin Hainan stood up and looked at the dense forest on the other side of the river. "If it's not here, then the location of the tribe should be there," Lin Hainan turned to face the three of them and stretched out his hand to the other side, "On the other side of the forest." ”
Lin Hainan turned his head to look at Feng Jianfei, Youmi and Xu Jin, "Let's cross the river, right?"
Feng Jianfei, Youmi and Xu Jin looked at each other and looked at the river, "How did you pass?"
"We don't have the tools either. Do you want to build a bamboo raft?"
"Feng Jianfei, what kind of shocking step can you fly over?"
"What are you talking nonsense about, Yumi?_?How can I do this?"
"Swim over?"
"I look at this water. ”
"No, wait, wait, I can't swim. ”
"Ah Jin, you have to learn to swim, otherwise what will happen if your mother and your girlfriend fall into the water. ”
"Let my girlfriend save my mom......"
"Hahaha picture sense. ”
For a while, Feng Jianfei, Youmi and Xu Jin were making a fuss, and Lin Hainan was also thinking about how to cross the river while fighting with everyone.
"Let's try it first. ”
After Lin Hainan finished speaking, he took off his clothes and took the lead in the water, but the water was far deeper than he imagined, and after taking two steps, Lin Hainan felt a little struggling, and after kicking out, he floated in the water, and the water slapped on him, and soon he couldn't touch the end, but Lin Hainan looked back and didn't go far from the shore, Feng Jianfei and the others were looking at him nervously. Lin Hainan kicked his feet and swam back to the shore, Feng Jianfei hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull Lin Hainan ashore.
"It's deeper than I thought, and I estimate that the middle of the river is also seven or eight meters deep. It should be impossible to swim through. Lin Hainan opened the operation panel and found a set of clothes to change into. "This holographic world is very convenient, and if it weren't for the holographic world, we might not be able to walk this river. ”
"We still need to rely on other methods to cross the river. Xu Jin pondered, opened a blank drawing board, and sketched the structure of the bamboo raft at will.
However, Lin Hainan's gaze fell on Feng Jianfei.
Feng Jianfei's heart tightened, and he looked at Lin Hainan vigilantly, "What are you doing?"
"Would you like to try it?"
"Try what?"
"Shocking steps. ”
"Isn't it, Lin Hainan, are you serious?"
"I can't die. ”
“…… What if I fall?"
"Then tie a rope. ”
"Where did the rope come from?" Feng Jianfei wondered.
Youmi and Xu Jin also looked at Lin Hainan in confusion, but Lin Hainan was also very incomprehensible, "Have you forgotten that we have a tool bag?" ”
The three of them suddenly realized, yes, how could they forget the tool bag for repairing cultural relics.
The four members of the Forbidden City team immediately opened their backpacks, there were a lot of things in the backpacks, and Yumi also found a small snack. Taking out the tools that could be used, Xu Jin drew the route taken by the Forbidden City team by the way, and the four of them connected the ropes, which were also ten meters away.
"We tie the rope to Jianfei, and if Jianfei can pass, we will tie the rope to the opposite side, and we will rely on the rope to cross the river. Lin Hainan stretched the rope vigorously and felt the firmness of the rope. "There should be no problem. ”
Feng Jianfei tied the rope around his waist and carefully checked that the rope had been tied well, while the tail of the rope was tied to Xu Jin and Lin Hainan.
"I'll see if I can get past the river after three taps. Like light industry floating on water. ”
Under the expectant gaze of the three of them, Feng Jianfei took a deep breath. Looking at the sky speechlessly, Feng Jianfei could only walk to the river, take a deep breath, activate his skills, and prepare to cross the river. Feng Jianfei estimated the distance, if he could jump three times on the river, it should not be a problem in the past.
"Ready--up~fly~" Yumi stood to the side with a grin and watched.
However, Feng Jianfei, who had already taken off, did not step on the surface of the river as he expected, he flew out far enough, but the speed was not enough, and the water surface could not become the focus point. Light power water floating failed: "Wait...... Puff puff::>_<::"
Feng Jianfei's feet slipped and fell into the water, and the shocking step could not support Feng Jianfei to the opposite side. At the same time, the river swept Feng Jian and flew downstream.
Lin Hainan, Youmi and Xu Jin were also a little panicked, but they didn't expect Feng Jianfei to reach the middle of the river with a leap of Jinghong, and the current suddenly took Feng Jianfei out for a distance.
Lin Hainan and Xu Jin almost didn't hold on, and while being careful not to be pulled into the river, they pulled the rope hard.
"Feng Jianfei! Hold on!" Seeing Feng Jianfei sinking and floating on the surface of the river, he didn't know what to shout, the three people on the shore were a little nervous, and Yumi's voice changed.
"Feng Jianfei!" Feng Jianfei sank into the water, but he didn't float up for thirty seconds. Lin Hainan shouted loudly, anxious in his heart, and suddenly, the other end of the rope was loosened, and Lin Hainan, Xu Jin and Youmi fell to the ground on their backs.
"Feng Jianfei!" Lin Hainan got up and threw himself into the river, shouting anxiously.
