However, soon, the little excitement that burst out of Dugu Chong's eyes came to naught. Romance debuts

"What if this is a tree of gold? We still can't get out, we just guard this tree, and we still die in the end! He sighed.

"Let's climb up first." Murong Hong touched the smooth trunk, "It's really too slippery, it's hard to climb up." ”

"What's the use of climbing up?" Dugu Chong is still very desperate.

"If it's useless, you have to give it a try, you can't just give up." Murong Hong said, "Your Highness, borrow your shoulder." “

"What, shoulder?"

Before Dugu Chong could understand it, Murong Hong had already pressed his shoulders down.

"Squat, I'll climb up on your shoulder, please." Murong Hong jumped on Dugu Chong's shoulder.

Dugu Chong was stunned for a moment, but still squatted down and lifted Murong Hongtuo up.

However, even if the two of them took Arhat like this, they still couldn't reach the shortest branch.

"It's too dangerous, what if you can't climb up and fall off?" Dugu Chongdao.

"Then you have to give it a try, you can't wait to die here, right? I jumped up to see if I could hold on to the branch. Murong Hong hugged the smooth trunk tightly.

When he pressed his whole body against the trunk of the tree, he could feel the coldness of the trunk, which was undoubtedly the temperature of metal.

"Be careful!" Dugu Chong shouted below.

Murong Hong hugged the trunk of the tree, took a deep breath, and leaned over to grab the branch closest to him.

His jump was more than five meters high, which was an incredible height that a person who had practiced light martial arts for many years could fly to without the help of anything to climb.

He stretched out his arms and spread his whole body into the shape of a gibbon, but even then, his fingers could not touch the branch, just a little bit.

As soon as he stretched out his hand to grasp the air, the whole person was in a state of complete suspension.

"Danger!" Dugu Chong shouted.

But a strange thing happened, Murong Hong, who grabbed the empty space with both hands, didn't fall, but was suspended in mid-air!

At the moment when his hands were empty, Murong Hong's heart also hung up, and he knew that he would inevitably fall.

But what he never expected was that under his feet, it seemed to be supported by something invisible, and the whole person was floating in the air.

What's going on?

Murong Hong didn't have time to think about it, he simply took advantage of the situation floating in mid-air, and he jumped into the air again, and actually flew up!

He flew higher and higher, from the bottom of the big tree, all the way to the top of the tree

Dugu Chong's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Can she fly? Could it be that this Mu Hongxue is a fairy?

What is more confused than him is actually Murong Hong himself.

He flew higher and higher, as if he were not affected by gravity, and he didn't know how long he flew, and he finally flew to the top of the tree. Here, it is at least 500 meters above the ground.

When Murong Hong flew to the top of the tree, he looked down and was even more surprised.

He saw that the forest was already under his feet, and it had become a poor little haystack. In the distance, the swamps looked like small puddles. Farther away, the royal city of the Netherworld is as small as a small house made of building blocks.

As soon as Murong Hong raised his head again, he became more and more surprised.

Above his head, above the black and red sky, a layer of sky like a curtain loomed, and in the sky, a shining ball could be seen, which must be the sun. On the other side of the sky, there is a crooked thing, needless to say, it is the moon.

In the sky of the netherworld, is there really a sun and a moon? It's just that they're all covered by a black and red curtain. The light of the sun and the moon could only pass through faintly, bringing a glimmer of light, and if he hadn't been able to fly so high, he wouldn't have seen such a wonderful sight.

At this time, Dugu Chong, who was standing under the tree, could no longer see Murong Hong, because the latter disappeared without a trace like a balloon.

He shouted loudly, "Mu Hongxue, Mu Hongxue, where are you?" ”

Murong Hong, who was flying in the sky, had already heard the sound below, although it was far from the ground, as far as the distance between heaven and earth, he still heard it.

With super sensitive ears, he not only heard Dugu Chong's voice, but also seemed to hear someone talking in his ear.

The voice was very weak, but Murong Hong still heard it.

"You're welcome, my master."

"Who, who's talking?" Murong Hong was taken aback and looked behind him.

Behind him, there was only the big tree that was almost high to the sky.

"Yes, is that you? Is it you, the tree, that is speaking? Murong Hong was stunned.

A talking tree, I can't be dreaming, right?

"Yes, that's me." The voice came again, this time very loudly.

"Huh? Wouldn't it, trees talk? Murong Hong was so frightened that he almost fell.

"If you can fly, why can't I speak?" The tree laughed.

"Mom, it's too evil, you, what the hell are you a tree of gods?" Murong Hong shouted.

"You're wrong, I'm not a tree." The voice said, "I am the original master of this netherworld. ”

"Huh? You, you are the master of the netherworld? Murong Hong was taken aback, "You, who are you?" ”

"I'm the god of Zhongyin Mountain who guards here!"

"The god of the bardo mountain?" Murong Hong was stunned for a moment, "No, you, you are obviously a tree?" How can it be a mountain god? ”

"I am the god of the mountain, and this Zhongyin Mountain is my territory. Here, it was originally just a mountain, which was Zhongyin Mountain. This Yin Mountain is the dividing line between the underworld and the yang, and all those who go from the yang to the underworld must pass through here. There is also a people here, the Yakshas, who have been blessed by me to guard this place for generations, ensuring the smooth passage of the only passage between the yin and yang worlds. "That Nakayin Mountain Shinto.

"Oh, so you're really the mountain god here?" Murong Hong turned his head and looked at the strange tree.

It's strange that this tree has no eyes, no nose, no mouth, and can speak.

"But how did you become a tree again?" Murong Hong asked puzzledly, "Wouldn't the mountain gods be like this?" ”

"Of course not, I wasn't like that. Well, that's a long story. I had a good life in this Zhongyin Mountain, and I also got along well with the Yakshas. However, hundreds of years ago, outsiders came here, completely breaking the tranquility here. ”

"The outsider you are talking about is not the ancestor of the bardo, that is, the person of the Dugu family?"

"Yes, it's him, he also brought a woman, that woman is called the Abyss Ghost Mother, and her mana is even more terrifying. She had escaped from the Nine Hells, and this woman had helped him and used a kind of magic on my Zhongyin Mountain. ”

"Oh, what magic?"

"I am the god of the mountain, the mountain belongs to the soil, and the soil is most afraid of being Muke. The woman asked the lonely ghost king to plant a strange tree on my mountain. ”

"Is this a strange tree?"

"Yes, this kind of tree looks like a tree on the outside, but it is actually a dark gold on the inside."

"Dark Gold, what is this?"

"It is a mixture of gold, jade, and a strange liquid, a dark gold that does not have the color of gold, but is harder than gold or even diamonds."

"Oh." Murong Hong nodded, "No wonder I used my sword to chop this tree trunk just now, it seems that this dark gold is not ordinarily hard!" ”

"Yes, this dark gold is not only hard, but also oozes a strange liquid, once it takes root, the liquid will seep into the soil, and little by little the aura of the mountains and rivers in the soil will be removed. I am the god of the mountain, and any change in the mountain will affect me, and soon, I found that my feelings became more and more strange, my skin was itchy, and my whole body was uncomfortable, and slowly, my soul was absorbed by this dark gold tree, trapped in it, and in the end, I could only stay here and couldn't get out. ”

"And then?" Murong Hong asked.

"After that, I had to become this big tree, locked here forever. Without my protection, the Yaksha would be unable to support themselves, and the Dugu Ghost King and the woman of the Abyss Ghost Mother defeated the Yakshas. I can only watch the scene of the Yaksha Clan's fiasco at the foot of Zhongyin Mountain, they are really pitiful. In order to completely cut off my connection with Zhongyin Mountain, that woman later planted a large number of trees next to the Dark Gold Tree, which became this forest, and separated this forest from Zhongyin Mountain, so as to completely cut off my relationship with Zhongyin Mountain. Moreover, she also set up a maze in the forest, and ordinary people would not be able to get out of it, which would also prevent me from running out of the woods. ”

"I see, you are the patron saint of Zhongyin Mountain, but now you have become a tree, is that so?"

"Yes." "Still, I've waited for your arrival, my master. ”

"Your master? How can I be your master? ”

"Hahaha! Whoever can let me out is my master. Master, I can serve you and help you fulfill a wish. "Nakayin Mountain Shinto.

Murong Hong frowned, "But how can I let you out?" How can you be sure I'm the one who can let you out? ”

"No one can climb to the top of my tree, no one, except the one who can free me." "This is an ancient prophecy that there will be someone who will bring the Netherworld back to the jurisdiction of the underworld, thus completely ending this independent world." This is fate, immutable. ”

"You know the prophecy?"

"Yes, it was prophesied a long time ago. In the prophecy, the Creator will come out of the Netherworld and eventually return to the Netherworld, where he will end the history of the Netherworld and create a completely different new world. ”

"The Creator?" Murong Hong's heart suddenly shook.

Who is that Creator?

Could it be that this Creator is talking about me?
