176: Monster
"Boom~"
A deafening loud explosion that exploded wildly. Mixed with the shock wave of flames, it spread violently in all directions at the same time, forming a large cloud of fire. Due to its location in a confined room, the power of the explosion was confined to a limited space and could not be relieved, so it was forced to bounce back and forth in all directions, raising the destructive power to a new level.
But after the smoke of the explosion passed, the recessed arc-shaped metal door was only a large piece of blackening, and it was only a little dented. There wasn't even a crack on it, and the distance was completely destroyed, and it seemed that there was still a very, far away.
Cheng Li's eyebrows were twisted, he stood up from his hiding place, walked to the metal gate and took a closer look, then shook his head helplessly, and said, "It seems that it still doesn't work." This door is too strong, isn't it? Ten hands are put together to detonate, and they can't be destroyed? Snow Maiden, in the blessed land, are the doors of all rooms like this?"
Xue Yanxia also walked out of the hiding place, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Not really." What kind of weapon is your hand? It's pretty powerful. It's at least ten times stronger than the thunderbolt in the Thunderbolt Hall. If this weapon had been used at the gate of the Kurato Arsenal just now, it would probably blow the gate open. It's a pity that this is the training room. ”
Cheng Li heard this term for the second time. He couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is the cultivation room?"
"The wild of Yongzhou produces strange snakes: black and white, touching the grass and trees to die; However, if you get it and use it as bait, you can have strong winds, spasms, fistulas, dead muscles, and kill three insects. ”
Xue Yanxia slowly recited a passage and sighed: "Back then, after the original leader of our clan, 'Nuwa', passed away. The remnant of the people were divided into two branches. One is the hybrid left by the combination of Nuwa and humans. The other is the rest of the Proto-Blood people. The half-race group was squeezed out by us proto-blood people, so they left their ancestral land and went to live in the world. And our original blood people continue to live in the ancestral land, marry each other, and multiply.
But not many people first came to the earth. Over the years, the blood of the newborn clan gradually became impure. However, there are many agency news in the ancestral land, and they all have requirements for bloodline. So even if we want to leave this world and return to our true homeland, we can't. So ......"
Cheng Li took over the conversation and said, "So you are trying to find ways to purify your own bloodline. In the end, the alien snake was cultivated. Well, Xiaoqing has already told me these things before. So, the role of this cultivation room is to cultivate that kind of alien snake?"
Xue Yanxia sighed, "Yes, but not exactly. Strictly speaking, in order to purify the bloodline, we have made many repeated attempts over a period of thousands of years. But every attempt, more or less, there will always be various problems, and in the end, I always have to give up. There were several times when we almost wanted to give up. But in the end, he persevered, and this is the result of the strange snake. ”
Cheng Li gasped and said, "Could it be that you say...... In the cultivation room, there are many things that resemble strange snakes?"
Xue Yanxia smiled bitterly: "It should be said that there are a lot of monsters inside. These monsters have a lot of abilities beyond ordinary people, and from a certain point of view, they are even stronger than our glass clan. But at the same time, they all have their own flaws, imperfect defects, and are difficult to control.
It took a lot of effort for us to kill most of the monsters that were out of control. But there was another small one that was not destroyed, and then these monsters were all shut up in the cultivation room. ”
Cheng Li asked strangely, "Why don't you kill them all?"
Xue Yanxia said: "It's just in case." These things, while uncontrolled, are really strong. So at that time, the people thought that we were always outsiders in this world. In the future, if we encounter an enemy, we will be too few to resist. Then when the time comes, maybe we can put these things out against the enemy and fight for a glimmer of life for us. So it was kept. ”
Cheng Li nodded abruptly. asked: "But when you fought with Daozun back then, it seems that these monsters were not released." ”
Xue Yanxia sighed: "That's because at the beginning, the situation was not very critical. When the time came to the real crisis, it was too late. Ha~ Speaking of which, it's really a big joke. ”
Cheng Li also shook his head with a smile. Suddenly he remembered something, and asked, "But hundreds of years have passed since then, and now, right? Are these monsters still alive?"
Xue Yanxia explained: "Our Liuli clan and the snakes in this world do have many similar characteristics. One of them is hibernation. In exceptional cases, we are able to go into hibernation and reduce the level of physical activity to a minimum. In this way, even in the case of complete food and water, it can last for a long time. ”
Xue Yanxia paused with a wry smile, and said faintly: "For more than three hundred years under the Leifeng Tower, this is how I came. And the monsters in the cultivation room, at the beginning, they all took some of our people's bodies, such as skin, scale armor, blood, etc., and cultivated them as a foundation. So these monsters also have the same characteristics as our people. ”
Cheng Li frowned and said: "But Snow Maiden, you have only been under the Leifeng Pagoda for three hundred years, and your body has run out of oil and dried up, all supported by the glazed treasure knife." And the Cave Heaven Blessed Land has been closed since the Daozun War was closed back then, and it has been eight hundred years now. Could it be that the monsters in this cultivation room can support as long as eight hundred years?"
Xue Yanxia said: "Under normal circumstances, of course not. But when these monsters were locked up, all the circumstances were taken into account. So we first made a special liquid medicine, which is rich in various nutrients and can supply them with their life needs. Then soak the monsters in the potion and let them go into hibernation. In this way, the liquid medicine that was supposed to be used for one year at most is enough for ten years. ”
Cheng Li shook his head and said, "That still won't take eight hundred years." ”
Xue Yanxia said, "However, we have also cultivated another kind of mushroom. The roots of these mushrooms are rooted in the medicinal solution, and they themselves can absorb nutrients from the air and grow. When the nutrients absorbed exceed their needs, they will pass through the roots and in turn spit out the nutrients. In this way, those nutrient solutions will not be used for 800 years, but even for 1,000 years, and there will be absolutely no problem. ”
Cheng Li groaned: "These things...... That peacock knows it too?"
Xue Yanxia nodded and said, "You should know everything." Although she is of mixed race, she is ostracized. But for a long time, there was still a very close connection between the half-breed and our original bloodline. ”
Cheng Li's jaw said: "If you say this, she will probably use those monsters to deal with us." In that case, then we don't have to waste our hands anymore. Just sit here and wait for the rabbit. Hmph, in this way, it is cheaper for her to live a little longer, and it is also cheaper for the 'old, middle and young' youth. ”
Xue Yanxia said strangely: "Old, middle, and young, ah, those three just now." It is indeed the elderly, the middle-aged, and the young. Cheng Li, do you know them?"
Cheng Li shook his head and said, "I don't know." However, I thought about it carefully just now and found that Yu Wenhe knew them. Yu Wenhe, the head of the Emei faction, you should still remember it, right? There are seven disciples under him, collectively known as 'Three Ying and Four Shows'. are all well-known characters in the martial arts. But Yuwenhe once admonished them:
If you meet 'old immortals', don't fight him, you are not his opponent yet. If you encounter a 'middleman', then you should flee as soon as possible. But if you meet 'green plum bamboo', then there is no way. When an ordinary person sees a rattlesnake wrapped around his feet, it is best not to move. But when you see a green plum bamboo, it's no different from the situation of a crippled man with a poisonous snake wrapped around his neck. ”
"Is it so staked?" Xue Yanxia was stunned, then shook her head and smiled: "But when I meet you, what old people don't die, it will immediately become an instant death." The intermediary becomes a half-man. Childhood mestake runs, but is faster by anyone. Cheng Li, from this point of view, the most terrifying monster is actually you. ”
