114, Man-eating grass, killing ground
Wu Zhong left the teahouse and went straight back to the Shaw firm. The people inside were busy, and no one wanted to focus on him, a shabby-looking and fledgling guy. However, Wu Zhong didn't come here to wander around, but to find Xiao Ping.
Since the last time Xiao Ping and Zhang Lin left, there has been no information about each other in the past few days. At this time, Wu Zhong was bored again, so he came here to find Xiao Ping for some errands.
Just as Wu Zhong was about to ask others to help spread the word, Xiao Ping happened to walk in, followed by Zhang Lin. It's just that the two of them are a little disgraced and not so decent.
Xiao Ping, who was eating outside, saw Wu Zhong sitting not far away as soon as he came in, and hurriedly waved his hand at him, and the three of them walked towards the inside of the business.
"What's wrong?" Wu Zhong stepped forward, only to find that Xiao Ping had some injuries in his legs, and hurriedly helped him.
Zhang Lin sighed: "This matter is a long story, let's talk about it later." Let's hurry upstairs and heal the second son. ”
The three of them stumbled upstairs and finally stopped in a quiet room. Wu Zhong helped Xiao Ping to lie down, and only then did he see the condition of his legs.
I saw a scar the size of a palm, like a heart, beating constantly. Wu Zhong stepped forward and found that this scar was different from what he had seen before, this scar looked so strange, like a human face. It's just that the facial features of this human face are distorted and very painful, as if they have suffered some heavy blow.
"What is this?" Wu Zhong exclaimed.
At this time, Xiao Ping was so painful that he couldn't speak, his face was pale, and he was sweating profusely. And Zhang Lin hurriedly ran out and went to find someone else to help. No one answered Wu Zhong for a while, and Wu Zhong was even more helpless about it.
After a while, Zhang Lin ran back out of breath, and there was an old man in white who walked in with him. This is the famous doctor in the Shaw firm, known as Ouyang Yi of Saihuatuo.
This Ouyang Yi walked into the bed, saw Xiao Ping's leg scars, his heart was for a while, his brows tightened slightly, and then he drove Zhang Lin and Wu Zhong out, and ordered the two to guard outside. Hearing this, the two hurriedly left.
Wu Zhong and Zhang Lin stood outside the door of the quiet room, their minds were all inside, but there was no movement.
Wu Zhong looked at Zhang Lin, although he was a little embarrassed, he looked much stronger than Xiao Ping. Wu Zhong opened his mouth and asked, "Where have you been? How can this be?"
Zhang Lin sighed and said slowly: "Some time ago, the second prince got a piece of news that there was a treasure in the depths of the 100,000 Great Mountains, but there were many external obstacles, and no one succeeded for a while. Generally, there will be a large number of people going to the treasure in the present world, but in recent days, all the major sects have been preparing for the secret of becoming immortals, and they naturally pay less attention to the appearance of this kind of thing. The second son thought to himself, take this opportunity to go and find out the truth, and take me over that day. But when we got there, we found that it was not that simple. ”
It turned out that after the two left that day, just in case, coupled with Xiao Ping's experience, they did not go directly to the depths of the 100,000 Mountain, but came to a small village at the foot of the mountain. With the experience of the two of them, it is better to prepare carefully in the face of the unknown, so I want to make a simple understanding of the depths of the 100,000 mountains through the locals.
Originally, everything was going well, but out of nowhere, a group of people suddenly appeared. These people wear uniform clothing, but there is no obvious sign of which sect they belong to. Xiao Ping and the others were vigilant when they saw this, and they did not go to the road, and the other party's cultivation was comparable to their own, coupled with Xiao Ping's advance preparation, and the assistance of the magic weapon that concealed the breath, the two were not discovered.
In this way, the two followed behind the group in front of them, following carefully.
The 100,000 Mountains have always been a mystery, not only for the worldly people, but also for the cultivators. Between heaven and earth, the most miraculous product is not human beings, but the magic of nature. Since ancient times, the 100,000 mountains have been crowned with the word mystery, and with the natural creation here, danger and opportunity coexist, it has always been a holy place in the hearts of explorers. Of course, there are very few people who can successfully walk out of the 100,000 mountains in the end. But the more mysterious it is, the more it attracts people to come and go.
Having said that, the two of them followed behind this team of people, which did save a lot of effort, and compared to some prohibitions and dangers encountered, both of them could make prejudgments based on their reactions. Although these prohibitions do not threaten personal safety, they save some trouble after all.
Just when everything was going well for the two of them, something strange happened.
If you want to say what is the most among the 100,000 mountains, it is not people, not plants, and not mountains, but all kinds of spirits and poisonous insects. These things were originally hidden in the mountains, especially in some evil places, and they were a paradise for all kinds of poisonous insects. Originally, under the influence of heaven and earth, these poisonous insects were hidden deep in the mountains, and some actions in time would not alarm them. And now, due to the appearance of the so-called treasures, which awakened the sleeping poisonous insects in one fell swoop, those spirits have also been affected to varying degrees, glaring angrily at the cultivators who come to the Tao, and some will even secretly move to surround and kill the intruders.
The weather was fine that day, the miasma had dissipated, and the team planned to take advantage of the great opportunity to push forward. Just as they were gearing up, the unexpected happened.
In Zhang Lin's seriousness, those people disappeared inexplicably one by one in front of his eyes, but they didn't find anything under his divine sense. The other party was shocked by this situation, and immediately waited in place, carefully observing, but never found it. In this way, half a day passed, and the rest of the people planned to go again, not wanting to finally run into terrible trouble.
It looked like a man, but the man had no arms or ears, as if someone had skinned him and had his arms chopped off. The man's throat died, his features twisted, and he slowly walked out of the woods. Everyone hurriedly guarded, but at this moment, the originally cloudless sky suddenly darkened, and finally it was like the end of the world, and they couldn't see their fingers. If it weren't for the fact that all of them were cultivators, I am afraid that they would have been frightened by the sight and turned around and fled. But even so, everyone's hearts are constantly beating drums. It's all just weird.
Dark clouds were thick, followed by a sudden storm, but such bad weather did not dispel the thoughts of several people, but only aroused people's fighting spirit. It's just that in the face of the monster in front of them, everyone is still a little apprehensive.
The monster staggered out of the deep forest, screaming and roaring in its throat, blood spilling out with every step, and it was sparse as far as the eye could see. One of them had the audacity to step forward and say, "Don't pretend to be a ghost here!
And at this moment, the monster suddenly spoke: "Help, save me!" Before the words fell, a stream of black unknown liquid mixed with a thick fishy smell suddenly squirted out from his mouth, and instantly splashed on several people in the front row. Those people couldn't dodge it, so they quickly wiped it down. And one of them even took out his long sword and slashed it down, instantly splitting the man in half, leaving the black liquid on the ground. At this moment, the shower stopped, and a ray of sunlight was projected in the sky, shining on the 100,000 mountains.
When everyone saw that the matter had passed, they laughed one after another, thinking that they would encounter some danger, and they didn't want to pass it like this. Everyone packed their clothes and prepared to set off again.
Presumably, these people didn't check the yellow calendar before going out, and if they did, they would definitely see a big word "not suitable for travel".
Just as the group was leaving again, one of them suddenly screamed loudly, "Hot, hot!" His skin was red and steaming, as if he had been roasted by fire. Immediately after that, the clothes outside his body burned from the inside out, and the skin on his body suddenly cracked, and the blood flowed, but it could not extinguish the raging flames, until finally he became the same as the monster just now, but he still kept two arms.
Coincidentally, the other people who had just been touched by the unknown liquid changed in turn. For a while, the bloody aura was raging, and the screams were repeated, like a hell of a nose, and it was extremely terrifying.
Now, only two girls have been stocked, but they are already scared stupid by their appearance, and they can't move at all. Zhang Lin, who wanted to rescue the two, was too late at this time, and could only hear two desperate screams, and then regained his calm.
At this moment, the sun dispelled the dark clouds and sprinkled a warm glow, the birds and beasts were heard in the forest again, the breeze blew, the grass swayed with the wind, and the wild flowers in the mixture exuded a unique fragrance, as if nothing had happened. Even on that land, there was not a trace of blood, let alone corpses.
If it weren't for the two of them seeing it with their own eyes, they would definitely not believe all this in front of them, and they would definitely think that this was a rumor, or a psychedelic array, but the living example was in front of them, and they really didn't allow the two to move forward again. Even the courage to set foot on that land is gone.
Zhang Lin leaned on a stone, took a deep breath, exhaled, and came down a few times before he came to his senses. There are probably eight or nine people in that team, and each of them has extraordinary cultivation, if it is placed outside, it can be regarded as a large strength. Even so, he still couldn't resist the curse-like magic, and before he could react, he turned into dry bones and returned to Artemisia.
Zhang Lin looked at Xiao Ping and waited for the next instructions. Xiao Ping looked at Zhang Lin, had nothing to say, slowly got up, looked at the land that was close at hand, devouring human corpses, surrounded by birdsong in the nearby forest, and the mountain top in the distance was like a pure girl, looking at Xiao Ping.
Is that treasure really unrelated to him?" Xiao Ping sighed. A treasure that can lead to such a movement must be extraordinary, but in the face of such danger, he is not the kind of outlaw who dies for money and birds for food, so he has to sigh and prepare to leave.
Zhang Lin received Xiao Ping's signal, and his heart finally relaxed. After all, the other party is the second son, and he obeys him, if the other party insists on moving forward, it is not good for him to leave without permission as a subordinate, otherwise if something happens, I am afraid that he will be wanted by the Xiao family all over the world. But fortunately, all worries are gone, and you can go home with peace of mind.
And at this moment, Zhang Lin saw a strange thing. It looks like a spider, but it is smooth as jade, white as bone, but it has no breath of death. And this thing is on Xiao Ping's lap, but Xiao Ping walks around in front of him, but he doesn't know at all.
