Chapter 639: The Legend of the Demon Tree (2)
Just as they were unconsciously approaching the big tree and wanted to explore the source of the fragrance in surprise, several people suddenly felt dizzy, and several martial arts masters were shocked, and hurriedly used their own strength to resist, and their bodies also hurriedly jumped back
But at this moment, those supple black branches in the canopy of the tree suddenly rolled towards them from all directions like a mad demon, and before they could react, the five masters of the Great Inner had been wrapped in the air among the countless black branches, and only the leader of the guards reacted extremely quickly, relying on excellent light skills, he retreated from the treetops that came from the dance, and quickly took out a few pills from his waist pouch and put them in his mouth
In the era of cold weapons, all the martial arts masters were proficient in medical science, and they had to have external injuries, internal injuries, and anti-poison and anti-poison drugs in case of emergency, and the anti-poisoning holy products prepared by their guards were all prepared in the palace and imperial pharmacy, and the natural effect was extraordinary
The vague scent didn't attract their attention, and they thought it was just an ordinary floral scent, until they suddenly felt dizzy in their brains, and realized the toxicity of the aroma, and immediately took out his medicine to defend himself after exiting the range of the treetop attack
After he finished taking the medicine, his mind immediately sobered up, and he quickly looked into the big tree, only to see that several companions were struggling desperately surrounded by countless branches, he pulled out the sword on his body, took a half step forward, and swung it vigorously at the branch waving in front of him, it was a companion who shared life and death with him, and he could not see death without saving
These people were all famous masters of the inner family at that time, and the commander of the guards, and they were the best among these people, and the sword swung out with full internal strength slashed on the dancing branches with the sound of the wind, "pop, pop", a huge sound came from the sword, and those dancing black branches swung backwards with the sound, and then turned back and pounced towards his position, like a black demon, making a huge "woo" sound
The ferocious swinging of the branch frightened him, he turned back, took a few steps back, hid outside the treetops, and quickly raised the sword in his hand to take a look, but saw that the sword, which was known as a fine product at that time, was already like a jagged and scarred, he was taken aback, looked up at the ground in front of him, and found that the sword he had just swung with sufficient strength had not cut off a branch
He was stunned, it was a sword that could cut off the horse's body, and he slashed countless enemies with him, it can be said that he had never been injured in a hundred battles, but he never thought that such a sharp sword would be so vulnerable in front of those seemingly soft black branches
The commander of the guards looked blankly at his companions, who had slowly stopped struggling in the scent, and knew that several of them had fallen into a coma under the effect of the scent, and the branches that tightly wrapped around them were slowly sending them to the black trunk, and the rest of the branches were still waving in the sky, like a demon with teeth and claws, making a "whining" sound in front of him
He looked at the sword in his hand, his face turned pale, he took a few steps back, sat on the ground, he knew that he could not do anything, he could only watch a few companions with strong martial arts accept the arrangement of fate
He didn't dare to stay near this terrifying tree for a long time, so he stood up silently, bowed deeply three times to several companions wrapped in the branches, and turned away from this terrifying black demon
He was afraid that he would be hurt by the big tree if he stayed nearby for a long time, who knew what else was unknown to this strange big tree, and if the antidote he ate failed, he might stay in this terrifying forest forever like several of his companions
The commander of the guards wandered alone outside for more than ten days, and then quietly returned to the forest, he couldn't bear not to see the result, and left alone, that was also the life and death brother who had been with him for many years, he must go back to see the result, even if it was to collect the corpse of his companion, it was also a comfort to himself
When he took a few more antidote pills and walked into the forest and saw the big tree in the distance, he froze again
The big black tree with teeth and claws at that time stood softly in the middle of the forest like a black girl, and countless black branches hung quietly around the black trunk like a pretty girl's long and silky hair
This ambitious master who entered the forest and was ready to hunt the people of the Wan family looked at the mysterious tree in front of him blankly, is this still the hideous and terrifying tree that day, dancing in the sky with a long black whip, he looked carefully around, trying to find the traces of his companion, and the companion should have bones and remains even if he was killed
He didn't dare to get too close, the furious form of the black demon that day made him creepy, he just took two steps forward slowly, and found that the area around the tree was clean and clean, and there was no blood or bones left on the tree
"It's impossible, even if you let the beast eat it, you have to have some bones," he muttered to himself, and unconsciously took two more steps forward
"Woo" The black tree that was as quiet as a virgin suddenly danced countless long whips and swept towards him, "My mother" He was like a frightened rabbit turning over and sweeping backwards, a terrifying wind swept in front of him, and he was so frightened that he escaped from this terrifying forest that he will never forget
When he walked out of the mountain with extreme fear and came to a tea house outside the mountain, he told the people around him about this terrifying experience in the forest, and the story has been spread in the mountain ever since
The Wan family also heard this terrifying story later, the ancestors of the Wan family once went to the forest to find this terrifying tree, one of the ancestors who was proficient in medicine smelled the faint fragrance around and said: There must be a rare medicinal material in this big tree, otherwise it would not have emitted this faint fragrance for a long time
Later, the ancestors of Wan family took this story as a warning and named the big tree "Incense Magic Tree", which has been passed down from generation to generation, and the Incense Magic Tree found at that time has gradually disappeared in the changes of the times with the passage of time and the changes in the geography of the mountains, and no one has ever seen this terrible tree species again
And the ancestors of the ten thousand families were also disheartened because of this tragedy, and set the ancestral precept that the descendants of the ten thousand families should not go out of the mountains for generations
The old man told this legend that has been passed down from generation to generation, and everyone listened to it with fascination, and also understood the reason why the ancestors of thousands of families lived in the mountains and forests for generations, and understood that the magic kung fu of the old man and the chief instructor was passed down from generation to generation
This relatively closed mountain forest allows these descendants of ten thousand families to concentrate on practicing martial arts without distractions, and try to inherit the martial arts of their ancestors as completely as possible, unlike other martial arts families, with the turmoil and changes of the times, many of the essence of martial arts have been lost in the long river of time, and the descendants have only inherited some skins, which is also the main reason why this magical technique of internal strength has gradually disappeared in the world
