Chapter 721: The Jungle Eats the Strong
Qin Feng knew what the so-called flower demons and tree spirits were, but these people in the field did not have the same insight as him, and after hearing Yao Er's words, all of them showed a look of fear on their faces.
"Old Lu, what do you see?" Qian Yuandan, who originally only thought he was going to the mountains to play, finally became serious.
Although completing this task, Qian Yuandan will get a lot of contribution points in the family, but if he wants to fight with his life, Qian Yuandan is unwilling.
Because even if he can't be the patriarch, Qian Yuandan can become the elder of the family for the last time, and he can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth in his hands, so his life is very valuable.
"According to the information from home, those things seem to have fallen on the periphery of the Three Realms Mountain......"
Lu Fenglei pondered for a while, and said: "That's it, let's look for it in the periphery first, if not, quit the city, young master, you have three years of experience, don't rush to ...... between the days and nights."
As a member of the Qian family's highest armed force, Lu Fenglei knew that many outsiders did not know about the Dao, and Yao Er's words just now reminded him of the horrors of the Three Realms Mountain.
As mentioned above, since the five major clans destroyed the royal family of Qindu, they have never given up looking for a way to the outside world, and they have also launched several large-scale explorations for the Three Realms Mountain.
The most recent one was more than ten years ago, when the five major clans had recovered some of their vitality from the losses of the soldiers who attacked the royal family of Qindu after decades of recuperation, and each family had five or six masters of transformation.
After consultation, each of the five major clans produced five transformation masters, divided into four teams, to conduct large-scale surveys of the three major Jedi and oceans in this space, in order to find a way to communicate with the outside world.
These three Jedi are the Three Realms Mountain, which is located in the territory of the Qian family. The first line of heaven and the Qin family's territory are located in the Qin family's Heavenly Peerless Mountains, and as for that sea area, it is called the Endless Sea.
At that time, the five major clans could be said to be elite, and all the resources in the family were used on these five teams, after more than a year of preparation. Five teams entered the four Jedi.
Lu Fenglei, who was in that meeting, was at the threshold of breaking through the strength, so he did not go to the four Jedi with these teams, but stayed in the Qian family for retreat.
Half a year later, when Lu Fenglei came out of the customs, he found that the entire Qian family was wearing linen and filial piety, and he was in mourning.
The Three Realms Mountain is located in the hinterland of the Qian family. Naturally, the Qian family's chemical strength master led the team to search.
Of the more than 1,000 people who entered the Three Realms Mountain of the Qian family, hundreds of them died in the middle of the way, and hundreds of people died in the cliffs.
Of the five major chemical strength masters, only one returned to the Qian family alive, not only the Qian family, but the others all suffered heavy losses. In particular, the fleet of the five major clans jointly exploring the Endless Sea was completely wiped out.
Come to think of it. Lu Fenglei couldn't help sighing, it was precisely because his son and daughter-in-law died in that fleet that his old friend Zhang Xiaotian rebelled against the Qian family, and it also made him and Zhang Xiaotian turn against each other.
After being reminded of Yao Er's words in previous years, even if Lu Fenglei was a master of transforming strength, he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear for this mountain. After all, there was more than one person who died here back then.
"Okay, then listen to Lu Lao!" After hearing Lu Fenglei's words, Qian Yuandan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the patriarch's throne was very tempting. But that also requires a life to sit on.
Lu Fenglei stood up and said, "Yao Er, let's keep walking, try not to camp in the woods at night!" β
With Lu Fenglei's order, the group all stood up, but this time the burden on Qin Feng's shoulders became much lighter, and the Qian family brothers had several more packages in their hands.
As time went on, the trail became more and more difficult to walk, and the group of people widened the gap.
Yao Er, who led the way in front, and Lu Fenglei, Qian Yuandan and others, who were empty-handed, walked in the front, while Qian Yi and others walked in the middle because of their lack of kung fu and physical strength, and they were twenty or thirty meters away from Qian Yuandan and others.
As for Qin Feng, he was panting and hanging behind the most man, and he was already more than a hundred meters away from the people in front, and he could only judge the route by the figures that appeared and disappeared from time to time above the hillside.
"Master, they are not going the right way......" Zhang Hu didn't know when Lu Dao slowed down and waited for Qin Feng on the hillside.
"Huzi, what's wrong?"
Qin Feng looked at Zhang Hu with some surprise, he couldn't move when he was carried out of the mountain by Zhang Hu, and he couldn't tell that this mountain road was almost full of trees a thousand times.
"You should go from Tiger Liangzi, Second Uncle Yao has taken a fork in the road."
Zhang Hu pointed to a high mountain on the opposite side and said, "Go over that mountain, and walk a mile or two further on the mountain road, and you will arrive there, and I met you, Master." β
"It's okay to take a fork in the road, you can't let them see those things so quickly......" Qin Feng looked up at the few people above, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
"Master, that dead old man wants to take me as an apprentice, what should we do?"
Zhang Hu waited for a long time to wait for this opportunity, if it weren't for the fact that there was no road in front of him, even Lu Fenglei picked up a machete to clean the road, he wouldn't have had a chance to stay here and wait for Qin Feng.
Not to mention that Zhang Hu had already worshiped Qin Feng as his teacher, even if there was no such thing, it would be impossible for him to worship Lu Fenglei as a teacher, after all, his grandfather was injured at Lu Fenglei's hands back then.
"Huzi, how far is this from the place where the man-eating tree is?"
Qin Feng pondered for a moment and asked, although he is now a cultivator in the late stage of dark energy, and he is only a kick in the door, but he is not Lu Fenglei's opponent.
What's more, the other party still has a person like Qian Yuandan who is a bright cultivator, if he really makes a move, Qin Feng will definitely lose or win.
Therefore, Qin Feng wondered if he could use the terrain in the mountains to trap Lu Fenglei and others, and then secretly inflict the killer and get the killer inheritance Qin Feng would not talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes here.
"Master, the flower demon and the tree spirit can run, who knows where they will appear?"
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Zhang Hu shook his head and said, "It's like miasma, it's generally in the deep mountains. But it's hard to say about the flower demon and the tree spirit, and I've seen it once on the outskirts of the mountain......"
Zhang Hu once shot a mountain deer, because he didn't shoot at the right position, the mountain deer ran up the mountain with a wooden arrow, Zhang Hu was unwilling to run away with the prey, and followed closely behind.
Just when Zhang Hu was about to catch up with the injured mountain deer. But suddenly he heard a miserable hiss from the mountain deer, and when he looked at it, he found that more than a dozen branches and vines had wrapped around the mountain deer and hung it in the air.
The most terrifying thing is that the roots of several branches and vines were inserted into the body of the mountain deer, and after just a few minutes, the mountain deer became shriveled up, but the blood all over the body was sucked by those branches and vines.
This scene frightened Zhang Hu to the bone, and since then, whenever Zhang Hu walks to this place. They all took a detour, and a few times from a distance, they could see the white bones of many wild beasts piled up on the ground.
"A blood-sucking vine?"
After hearing Zhang Hu's words, Qin Feng also had a chilling feeling, after all, he had heard that the man-eating tree was only in science books, and it was completely different from the feeling of having this kind of plant around him.
"Master, it seems that the tree spirit is on this road!" Zhang Hu distinguished the direction and said with certainty: "That's right." This is the road, over this mountain beam......"
"Oh?"
Qin Feng's eyes flickered. He was a little hesitant in his heart, because he didn't know what the power of the man-eating tree in the Dao was really high, if he could trap Lu Fenglei, then Qin Feng was sure to kill everyone else.
"Master, do you want to give them all ......" Zhang Hu made a movement to wipe his neck, but the look in his eyes was not afraid. It's a glow of excitement.
"Aren't you kid afraid?" Qin Feng looked at Zhang Hu a little strangely, he didn't expect that the apprentice he had accepted was still a bloodthirsty guy.
"Don't be afraid!" Zhang Hu shook his head and said, "This is a place where people eat people, and when my grandfather and I entered the mountain, we had already killed people......
"Huh? What's going on? "Qin Feng hasn't heard Zhang Hu mention this matter yet. I couldn't help but ask strangely: "Huzi, there are no outsiders in this mountain, right?" β
"Why not? There's a lot of it. β
Zhang Hu shook his head and said, "The tiger skin and fox skin in the mountains, as well as the precious herbs, can be sold for a lot of money when they are outside, and many people go to the mountains to hunt and collect medicines......"
In this barren land, the pressure of survival has always been in the hearts of those who live here, and hunting in the mountains can not only obtain meat, but also exchange furs for food.
Therefore, not only the people in these small mountain villages rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, but also many people from outside go to the mountains to collect medicine and hunt.
However, these people are a little unruly, if they encounter a lone or old or young, they will often kill people and sell goods, and I don't know how many people in the mountains have turned into fertilizer for plants and trees.
Zhang Hu and his grandfather met once, and it was two years when they went to the mountain to collect medicines, and the two masters of cultivation in Mingjin saw that Zhang Hu had a blind cherishing of medicinal materials in his medicine basket, and couldn't help but have evil thoughts.
It's just that Uncle Zhang is also a master of dark strength no matter how bad he is, the two didn't expect that they kicked on the iron plate, and after a few moves, they were subdued by Uncle Zhang.
And Zhang Hu was taught a lesson by his grandfather at that time, learned the law of the jungle of the jungle, and stabbed a wooden knife into a person's heart with his own hands.
"The old man can really be ruthless!"
After hearing Zhang Hu's words, Qin Feng's face couldn't help but show a different color, Zhang Hu two years ago, he was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, and Uncle Zhang actually let him kill people.
"Grandpa said that if you want to live here, you can only be stronger and more ruthless than others!" Zhang Hu touched the wooden knife on his waist, and there was a maturity on his face that was completely beyond his age.
"It seems that it is really difficult to survive here......"
Qin Feng sighed and said, "Huzi, if you can really get out of the world in the future, you have to remember that you can't kill indiscriminately outside!" β
"If someone kills me, can't I kill anyone else?" Zhang Hu looked puzzled, obviously Qin Feng's words were completely different from the education he had received since he was a child.
"Depending on the seriousness of the circumstances, if it is a person who has committed a heinous crime, you don't have to leave your hands behind......"
Qin Feng said patiently: "But if the other party's crime is not to death, you can't kill him, just subdue the other party." β
"Oh, I know it, Master!"
Although Zhang Hu still didn't understand Qin Feng's words, he still nodded and said, "Master." The dead old man wants to take me to Qian's house, what should I do? β
"What to do? You don't do anything! β
Qin Feng knocked on Zhang Hu's head with some amusement, that Lu Fenglei's cultivation didn't even dare to provoke himself, and Zhang Hu didn't have the slightest room for resistance in front of him.
"Master, why don't you ...... Let's sneak away. β
Zhang Hu glanced left and right and said, "I am familiar with the roads in the mountains. Let's go to Grandpa's place, and never go back to the village again, they can't find our ......."
For Zhang Hu, who has lived in the mountains since he was a child, the periphery of the Three Realms Mountain is too familiar, as long as he finds a place to hide, even Yao Er wants to find him.
"This ......" Qin Feng glanced up, he just heard Zhang Hu say that the cannibal tree was in front, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, maybe it was an opportunity for him.
"Huzi. Do you know the place where the man-eating tree is located? Qin Feng suddenly asked.
"I don't know what to do, right?" Zhang Hu's face changed, and he said: "This place is going to the deep mountains, Second Uncle Yao and they won't take this road, I'm not sure if he knows the way or not......"
"Master, we have to keep up, I'...... I can't let the second uncle be in danger. β
can be ruthless to Lu Fenglei and those people, but since he was a child, he was watched by people in Yao Er's village and grew up, just like relatives. Zhang Hu couldn't watch Yao Er encounter the man-eating tree.
"Huzi, you go to the front......"
Qin Feng thought for a moment. opened his mouth and said: "Remember, after you get to the place where the cannibal tree is, no matter what method you use, you have to ask Second Uncle Yao to back down a little." β
"Okay, Master, I remember!"
Zhang Hu's eyes lit up. His feet sped up a few points, and after a few steps beyond Qin Feng, he turned around and said, "Master, do you want me to help you pick a path?" β
"Stinky boy, you can pick and choose. Isn't Master still moving? β
Qin Feng scolded with a smile when he heard this, but his heart was warm, although this apprentice was a little ruthless, he still did an excellent job in respecting the teacher.
"Huh? Zhang Hu, where did you go just now? β
Lu Fenglei glanced back at Zhang Hu, his face was a little unpleasant, he was really afraid that Zhang Hu would lose his life in an accident, so he was afraid that he would never be able to meet an apprentice with such good qualifications in the future.
"I'm tired, rest my feet!" Zhang Hu replied angrily, grabbed a few steps forward, and said, "Second uncle, I'll help you open the way!" β
Due to the abundance of trees in the mountains, especially in this kind of place where few people come, there is no road, and it is necessary to cut the vines with a firewood knife in your hand to let people walk through.
Lu Fenglei used a scimitar made of stainless steel, and it was effortless to start the road, but Yao Er took a wooden knife made of iron and wood, and he was already sweating profusely when he walked down.
"Huzi, don't need you, the second uncle is okay!" Seeing that Zhang Hu was coming over, Yao Er hurriedly shook his head.
The opening of the road in the mountains is the most dangerous, because no one knows what is hidden in the bushes in front of the road, and one may be bitten by snakes and insects if he is not careful.
"Second uncle, it's okay, you don't know the way, I also often go into the mountains......" Zhang Hu had already squeezed to Yao Er's side at this time, and reached out to grab the wooden knife in his hand.
"Hey, you kid, I really don't need it!"
Yao Er was unexpectedly snatched the wooden knife by Zhang Hu, and hurriedly reached out to snatch it, if he was such a big person, let the child open the way, and when he returned to the village, he didn't know how people would laugh at him.
However, Yao Er didn't notice that when he stretched out his hand, the wooden knife in Zhang Hu's hand inadvertently aimed the blade at his arm, and seemed to be accidentally swinging it.
"Oops!"
With Yao Er's cry of pain, blood splattered out of his arm, and the wooden knife could cut through dead branches and vines, not to mention the flesh and blood, and directly cut a hole.
"Second uncle, right...... I'm sorry, I ...... I didn't mean to. Zhang Hu hurriedly threw down the wooden knife, hugged Yao Er's arm, and said, "Second uncle, I'm really sorry, I'm ...... I'll wrap you ......."
"There is not enough success, and there are more failures!"
Seeing that Zhang Hu was kind enough to help, Lu Fenglei couldn't help but laugh, he could see that although Zhang Hu had a bright cultivation, he was still a child's mind after all.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Yao Er was also a little crying and laughing, Zhang Hu was kind, and he couldn't bear to blame the other party.
"Young Master Qian, this ...... I'm so sorry! β
Yao Er looked at Qian Yuandan behind him apologetically, although the injury on his arm was not serious, the wound was just on the arm that made the force, but he couldn't swing the wooden knife to open the way.
"Qian Yi, you help Lu Lao take turns to open the way......"
Qian Yuandan screamed, he was already walking very slowly, and now that the guide was injured, they didn't know when they would be able to find those things that fell from outside the sky in this mountain.
"Yes, young master!"
After Qian Yi and the others who caught up heard Qian Yuandan's words, they couldn't help but scold Zhang Hu in their hearts, knowing that even if they didn't do anything, they were almost exhausted.
However, Qian Yuandan's words, Qian Yi and the others still didn't dare to disobey, so they could only pick up the wooden knife and drive in front, of course, the speed was outrageously slow, and even Qin Feng, who was hanging behind, slowly caught up.
It took more than two hours for everyone to cross the mountain beam, and it was already about five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was gradually setting in the western mountains.
"Huh? Is that the man-eating tree that Huzi said it was? β
After crossing the mountain beam and walking down less than two miles, a dense jungle appeared in front of the group.
On the left side of the jungle was a slope that could not be seen at a glance, and on that slope was full of flowers, and from a distance it looked like a sea of flowersβ
