Chapter 22: ...... of the Wasteland secret
"Also, don't tell anyone about the wasteland, including your sister. He Jinglong said solemnly, "For most people, the wasteland is a place that is never necessary to know. ”
Seeing his solemn expression, Li Yu quickly figured out the stakes, and hurriedly patted his chest and said, "I must be tight-lipped!"
"Hmm. ”
For this world, there are only a few people who can successfully step into the path of cultivation after all, and only a small number of people can fight for the fate of all mankind, and the vast majority of people only need to spend this life in peace.
"I want to ask a few questions about the wasteland, is that okay?" Li Yu pondered for a moment, but still had the courage to ask.
He Jinglong was noncommittal, obviously acquiescing.
"Three questions, the first one, why is there such a big difference between day and night in the wasteland? All the horrific creatures are almost always nocturnal, and they are not seen at all during the day. Second, where do the horrible creatures usually hide if they don't show up during the day? Third, I always feel that there is something wrong with the grass on the plains, has something happened here these two nights?"
He looked at He Jinglong's angular side face, and only heard the latter say: "It's okay to tell you, anyway, you will continue to contact sooner or later." ”
"The Wasteland was not originally called that, it was once called the Forest of Nature, and it was the nest of many magical beasts in East Asia. ”
"Demonic beasts?" Li Yu said confusedly.
"Yes, like humans, not all creatures can successfully cultivate, the creatures that can cultivate in beasts and plants are called demonic beasts and demonic plants, since humans have fully seized the supremacy of the earth, human beings have established the [Forbidden Great Wall] outside the Forest of Nature, and all the surviving demonic beasts and demonic plants in East Asia have fled into the Forest of Nature. However, due to the [Forbidden Great Wall] forcibly changing the laws of heaven and earth in the Forest of Nature, the solar energy that could have been used as the best cultivation energy has become a terrifying poison that can be crushed at the touch, and over time, the monsters in the Forest of Nature only dare to act at night, and during the day, it has become a paradise for ordinary creatures who cannot cultivate. ”
"Then why did you change your name to the wasteland?"
He Jinglong was silent for a moment, and said: "The area within the Forbidden Great Wall is strange, for hundreds of years, countless powerful human warriors have investigated deeply, and found that the total amount of organisms in the Forest of Nature will be maintained at a strange sum, one powerful demonic beast will die, and soon another more powerful demonic beast will be born to take over its territory. Moreover, everything in the Forest of Nature has the ability to heal itself as a pervert, even if it encounters fire, torrents, or major deformations caused by the confrontation of powerful magical beasts, it will quickly recover in as little as a few days or as long as a month. ”
When Li Yu heard this, he suddenly thought of something, and his face suddenly changed: "You mean to say that on the plain where we just settled, there was a devastating disaster not long ago?"
If the ecosystem in the wasteland has a strong ability to heal itself, then the only reason that can explain the turf renewal and budding is natural disasters or insect infestations.
"You just need to remember one thing, next time you go into the wasteland, stay away from the Forbidden Wall. He Jinglong said, "If you had chosen to stay in the plains for the night, you would have been able to go home that night." ”
He said it lightly, but Li Yu still heard an unusual taste from these simple words.
Apparently, though, he cares about another sentence.
"Won't you? Tell me clearly what it means to go into the wasteland next time!"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that every other month, you're going to come to the wasteland to experience life, not to mention the summer and winter vacations, when the time comes, you'll be assigned to an expedition for a month of training. ”
At the end, before Li Yu could react, He Jinglong added: "I have already reported to the school and your parents, life and death are fateful, wealth is in the sky, if you want to live, you have to practice hard!"
"Why!" Li Yu was furious. "When did you ask my opinion?"
What kind of place is the wasteland! Can a little minion like him come casually?
"Well, your opinion is not on my radar, at least for the time being. He Jinglong said.
When Li Yu's eyes were about to breathe fire, he said unhurriedly: "C-level exercise [Turtle Breath Gong], it will take at least half a month for normal people to cultivate to the 'concentration' stage, tell me how long have you used it?"
Li Yu was stunned: "One ...... ...... a day and a half"
"Why can you get started so quickly, is it because of your talent? I'm afraid not, it's the great pressure and fear of life and death that urge you to cultivate desperately, and death threats can stimulate the limits of the human body to the greatest extent. Your time is running out, as the realm improves, your innate spirit will be more easily exposed, if you don't reach the true stage before the [Human God Test] after the ninth stage of the martial artist, then you will definitely die. He Jinglong said sternly.
(Note: There are four stages of turtle breath work, concentration, latent breathing, true determination, and determination.) )
Li Yu finally quieted down, the scenery outside the window blurred into countless thin lines that flew by, and the two of them were silent all the way.
Two hours later, the speed slowed down and the car stopped in front of the school's infirmary.
He Jinglong got out of the car door and motioned for Li Yu to go to the infirmary.
"Wounds are easy to get infected in the summer, let Wang Qing help you deal with all the injuries on your body, and if it's okay, go back to the classroom as soon as possible." ”
Li Yu nodded silently.
"Also, don't forget what I just said, do your best to be in the limelight, and never hide in the shadows. ”
Li Yu still nodded mechanically.
After He Jinglong finished explaining these two sentences, he didn't look at him again, got into the sports car again, and left in a hurry.
Li Yu patted his cheek, trying to sober himself up, he walked into the infirmary, only to see that all the beds were empty, and the sound of a woman humming was faintly heard in the infirmary.
"If you were to do it all over again~Would you love me~"
may have heard Li Yu's footsteps, the singing stopped abruptly, and there was a sound of ping-pong, and after a while, Teacher Wang Qing, who was wearing a neat white coat, walked out from inside.
When she saw Li Yu's appearance clearly, a pair of good-looking eyebrows couldn't help but go up, and she said angrily: "What's the matter?
Li Yu's face turned red.
"How many times have I stressed to you before! The injuries on your body are just right, don't fight and kill others at every turn, if you fall into the root of the disease, you will be better in the future!" Wang Qingxu babbled, "Go in, take off your shirt and show me." ”
Li Yu hurriedly followed behind Wang Qing, and waited for her to close the curtains before taking off the new T-shirt He Jinglong asked him to put on.
It's just that this time, Wang Qing, who was originally careless, suddenly widened his eyes.
There are three hideous claw marks on the chest, although some places have scabbed, you can still see the rolled flesh and the blood stains around that have not had time to be wiped, and although the two claw marks behind are not so deep, they have been drawn from Li Yu's left rib to the right kidney, giving people a strong visual impact.
"What's going on?" Wang Qing said sternly.
