Chapter 139: Ten Thousand Feet in the Sky
"Whirring ......"
The wind was fierce and whistling in the ears, like a ghost roaring out.
The strength of this wind should be able to reach seven or eight levels or more, and it can blow people away.
I was so frightened that I lay on the ground, barely holding my body.
looked around, but was stunned by what he saw.
What do I see?
The cloudy sky is close to the ulnar side......
The wind blew, and you could even see black clouds galloping past you, converging towards the center of the black clouds in the distance.
And the center of the black cloud is just above the canopy of the big tree.
And at the moment, I was lying in mid-air, on the branch of a large tree.
Although it is a branch, it is still thick and large. The diameter of the branch is about ten meters wide, and the distance from the main trunk can be hundreds of meters.
Below is a dense forest, I can't say how high, but it's very high anyway, like being in the clouds, and you can see the soles of people's feet sweating and their bodies trembling.
I was already a little afraid of heights, but now looking down from above, I am even more scared that I even stop breathing.
A suffocating feeling of dizziness swept through his mind, and he quickly withdrew his gaze, not daring to look down further.
I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths in a row, and my pounding heart began to calm down.
It had been quite some time since we had entered the inside of the tree from the temple at the bottom, and it was dawn.
But the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the whole world was gloomy.
All around, there are terrifying figures, like black dragons, rolling up the wind and clouds in the sky.
If you look closely, you will find that they are all branches extending from the trunk of the tree, and they are scattered and stretched all over the sky, and the shocking scene is unbelievable.
I don't know what kind of tree it is, the branches are black, but on the branches it grows white down, like snow.
At this time, the wind is howling, and the whole sky is full of flowers, and there is a heavy snowfall, which is spectacular.
In the distance, the nine peaks surrounding the big tree were blurred, because the sky and the earth were dull at this time, and there were countless velvet flowers blocking the view.
The wind was blowing violently.
The sound of whistling all around is endless.
Near, smoke was billowing from the hollow of the tree I had climbed out, but as soon as the smoke came out, it was blown away by the wind and became part of the dark clouds.
It's hard to imagine that everything I've been through before has been on a branch that extends out of a tree.
There is so much space in just one branch.
So...... There are thousands of these branches around, but they are all hollow inside? There's also a corridor space like the one you just had?
It's unimaginable, it's like a dream.
But I knew very well that it wasn't a dream, because there was still a dull pain in the burned area.
If it were a dream, I wouldn't hesitate to jump from this place and wake myself up.
Because such a dream is terrible.
The wind was so strong that I had to lie on my stomach and cling to the trunk of the tree to avoid being blown away.
If you fall from this place, you will really be crushed to pieces, and there will be no bones left.
Inside the tree below, there is heat outlet.
Don't think about it, it must be because of the internal fire.
I wonder if the fire inside has stopped at this moment?
But none of this has anything to do with me, and after calming down, I thought of Lao Fei and Jingmei again.
Did the two of them escape from this passage as well?
Thinking of this, I followed the branches and glanced towards the roots, but at the moment there were white velvet flowers everywhere, and my vision was blocked, and I couldn't see it at all.
I wanted to shout, but my voice was instantly drowned out by the sound of the wind's howl.
"Smack!"
At this moment, a strange sound sounded in my ears, like the sound of flapping wings.
As the sound approached, I turned my head and saw a colorful bird landing next to me.
It's hard to imagine that in this place, when the wind is howling, even people can't stand, and a small bird the size of a palm actually stops in front of my eyes.
I don't know what is so strange about it, that it can come and go freely in the midst of such a strong wind, and it is not affected?
It stopped in front of me, tilted its head, and a pair of big dark and agile eyes were staring at me non-stop, very human.
……
Now I am undoubtedly very embarrassed.
The whole body is scorched black, and I guess even my eyebrows and hair are burned, right?
It's a miracle to get out alive.
"Hi...... See you again! ”
The first time I saw the bird, I recognized it as the spirit bird that appeared in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, perhaps they were originally perched on this big tree.
"Cuckoo!"
As if he understood my words, the spirit bird actually responded.
I felt in my heart that this bird is really amazing.
Although I have only seen a few times from the Valley of Flowers to the present, I am very impressed by it.
Especially now, when I have escaped death and see it suddenly appear, I can't help but feel separated and cordial in my heart.
I have a lot to say, but because I had smoked a lot of poisonous cigarettes just now, my throat was dry and sore, and it was very uncomfortable to breathe.
At this moment, how I wish I could have a bowl of water in front of me.
But in such a place, what was once readily available is now a dream of luxury.
I never thought that a bowl of water would be so precious to some people.
For example, now, if there was a bowl of water and a piece of gold in front of me, I would not hesitate to choose that bowl of water.
But if you think too much, it's just a fantasy after all.
The sky was cloudy, but it didn't rain.
At this time, I was looking forward to a heavy rain to fall.
The burns on my body were very uncomfortable for me, and the pain was not the same as the pain of being cut by a sharp blade.
I'd rather get stabbed a few times than that.
People who have never been burned don't understand what kind of pain it is.
Now I relaxed, lying on the branch and not wanting to move, because every time I moved, I was involved in a burnt wound on my body, and the pain was unbearable.
Eventually, the bird flew away and headed straight for the forest below.
The fluttering figure, like a cheerful elf, shuttled through the wind, and I was envious to see it.
Wouldn't it be nice if people had wings?
I sighed, then smiled wryly......
……
I wanted to rest on my stomach for a few minutes, but at this time, the temperature inside the branches under me was getting higher and higher, and there were flames coming out of the hole in the tree not far away.
The fire has not been extinguished, and it has the potential to burn the prairie fire.
If this continues, perhaps the whole tree will be set on fire, and my current position must not stay any longer, and must immediately go to the roots of the branches.
Thinking of this, I didn't dare to rest any longer, endured the severe pain and arched my body, and the whole person was like a crab, grabbing the bark and crawling towards the roots.
There was no way, the wind was too strong in the place to stand and walk at all.
Even if he crawled on his stomach, his body was scraped and shaky.
At this time, I am like a lonely boat in the angry waves, and I may be blown away by the strong wind at any time and fall into the endless deep valley.
The sound of whistling in my ears was like a ghost crying and howling, and the temperature of the trees below me was getting higher and higher, and I could faintly see a red color, which I knew was a sign that the fire was coming out of my body.
If the fire spreads out, and the wind helps, it will definitely be uncontrollable.
The speed of crawling is not very fast, trembling and towering, like a tightrope on a cliff, and slow as a snail.
After climbing more than ten meters, I felt a heat wave rushing behind me, and sporadic flames falling on me.
When I turned my head to look, I saw that flames were already coming out of the hole in the tree.
At the moment, I didn't dare to look at it more, so I lifted my spirits and crawled to the roots in a hurry.
Climbed out again for dozens of meters, and there were already flames behind him.
At this moment, I glanced at it and suddenly saw someone crawling in front of me.
It was a fat figure, topless, with a package on its back that was bulging with stuff.
This figure is very familiar, who else can it be if it is not Lao Fei?
In addition to him, I saw another person.
It was an unconscious woman, dragged behind by the old fat, and it was difficult to move towards the roots little by little.
This person is Yan Xiaoying!
Just now I was wondering where the two of them went, but they had escaped before me.
Seeing them, my heart was really excited, and there were tears in my eyes, and I didn't care about the pain in my throat, so I opened my mouth and shouted: "Old fat...... Old Fat ...... Wait for me ......"
Ahead, Lao Fei heard my shout, his body shook obviously, and then Huo Ran turned around.
When he saw that it was me, the whole person was immediately stupid, his eyes were round, and his face was full of incredulity.
Then, in my startled gaze, he suddenly jumped to his feet.
"Damn,!"
He exclaimed, and directly abandoned the unconscious Yan Xiaoying, and the whole person stood up and ran towards the roots.
I was terrified that if he was not careful, he would be blown away by the wind.
But apparently, I underestimated his tonnage.
Just because I can't stand up and walk in this kind of place doesn't mean he can't.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from my sight, his back obscured by a myriad of fluttering velvet flowers.
Seeing him react like this, I was stunned.
But then he came back to his senses, because after Yan Xiaoying was abandoned by Lao Fei, she was lying in front at this time, swaying, and it was very dangerous.
With a curse in my heart, I picked up my speed and crawled closer to steady her.
At this moment, Yan Xiaoying was still unconscious, her face was pale and bloodless.
My heart tightened, and I reached out to probe her breath and pulse.
She couldn't feel her breath because of the strong wind, but her pulse was beating, just slower than normal.
After doing this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately, the person is still alive.
"Damn, what kind of is this old fat thing doing...... Why did you run away as soon as you saw me? ”
I cursed in my heart, but I didn't dare to delay, because the fire was spreading behind me.
However, I really underestimated myself and underestimated my own injuries.
When I wanted to drag Yan Xiaoying away and chase after Lao Fei, I found that even if I tried all my strength, I couldn't drive her in the slightest.
Originally...... My body has become weak like this.
"Click!"
"Boom!"
At this moment, the sound of trees breaking behind him was heard loud and resounding through the sky.
The branch of the tree we were on shook violently.
When I turned around, I saw that more than ten meters away behind me, the thick and large branches were broken, and flames erupted from the fracture.
"Click!"
There was another loud bang, and the branches trembled.
Under my gaze, the branch, which was ten meters in diameter and spread for an unknown length of time, broke off in the middle of the middle and fell rapidly downwards with monstrous flames.
"Boom!"
It was about seven or eight seconds before a loud, deafening explosion was heard below.
Such a majesty is like the collapse of heaven and earth.
The branches of the trees were broken, but the fire was not extinguished, and it spread towards us with the help of the wind.
I was anxious, if I escaped now, I might still be alive, but if I took Yan Xiaoying with me, I could only wait for death in the same place.
But countless times of life and death have been suffering, how can I be ruthless enough to throw her down?
The choice between life and death is often difficult to choose.
No one wants to die!
Just when I was very anxious, I suddenly saw a fat figure running from the direction of the root of the branch......
