Chapter 206: Waiting for the Doom (8)
Chapter 206: Waiting for the Tribulation (8)
"No wonder... No wonder..."
A heart-rending cry burst out of the throat of the old woman, who was no longer young, and she was overwhelmed with grief and tears.
"No wonder... Ultimately... You also missed my appointment..."
After crying for a while, she suddenly laughed out loud again, and sighed as if she had come to a realization, "I thought I had been waiting for you, but this time... You must have waited for me for too long..."
As she spoke, she raised and dropped her knife, her movements still as sharp as when she was young. Yun Lingxiu and Chu Mo didn't have time to stop it, but they saw a dagger hit her heart, and a large blood-colored flower had already bloomed on her chest.
"Senpai!"
Yun Lingxiu was shocked, she never thought that she would suddenly end the rest of her life so decisively, and hurriedly went to help her.
She waved her hand, sat upright, brushed her sideburns very seriously, and straightened her clothes, as if she was about to go on a most beautiful date, smiled, and said with great satisfaction, "It's cold down there, I don't want him to wait too long for me..."
"Senpai!"
Seeing that the blood stains on her chest were full of blood, she couldn't stop surging, and she looked particularly shocked. Chu Mo was shocked and wanted to help her stop the bleeding.
The old man took her hand, placed an object in her hand, and said with a smile, "Miss... Your things will be returned to you..."
"Phantom Tiger, please forgive you for not being able to accompany you to look for it."
Chu Mo knew that it must be the key to finding the Phantom Tiger, and before he had time to look at the object, he saw that the old woman's pupils had begun to dilate, and the lamp had obviously run out.
Her body shook for a moment, and her consciousness seemed to be blurry again, muttering something to herself, then looked at Yun Lingxiu, smiled kindly, took his hand, put it on Chu Mo's hand, and said with a smile, "Uncle... This time, Miss is handed over to you again..."
"Don't let her get hurt anymore..."
After saying this, the hands hung down without warning...
Chu Mo subconsciously grabbed the hands that hung down, and his heart hurt. I don't know why, although I met her in Pingshui, Chu Mo was sad and had the urge to cry.
The two buried Fuyu under the peach tree outside the temple where the stone statue of Mucuna was stored, and they sighed in their hearts and did not speak for a long time. It is early spring, the peach blossoms are blooming, the breeze is blowing, and the peach-colored petals are fluttering, like a rain of flowers, floating on the lonely grave of life.
She has been lonely all her life, and the only warmth is Mucun's pupils and Mo Zhao.
On this trip, she went to find Mo Zhao, and now she is buried on the side of the stone statue of Mucuna pupil, which is the happiest moment in her life.
Yun Lingxiu and Chu Mo clasped their fingers, stood on the green grass with peach blossoms flying, and bowed in the direction of Fuyu's burial.
"Let's go..."Yun Ling said lightly.
Chu Mo nodded, and the two of them walked towards the outside of the valley, crossing this mountain range, and behind them, there was a poisonous mist. What Fuyu put in the palm of her hand before she died was an object shaped like a flute, called Guan Tian.
Although it is modeled after a flute, it does not have only a few holes like a flute, but is engraved with countless pores, on which unknown transparent fine particles are embedded all over the pipe.
Chu Mo transported spiritual power and injected it into Guan Tian. The tiny particles suddenly lit up, lit up along a curved line, and finally froze to a position, which was the direction of the poisonous mist. As those fine grains slowly lit up, there was a faint aroma of grass and trees in the air.
"Could it be that this tube is made from plant rhizomes?" Chu Mo curiously brought the Guan Tian to Yun Lingxiu's eyes, "Look, is this thin line the route to find the Nether Tiger?" β
Yun Lingxiu looked at it carefully for a moment and nodded, "This is made from a kind of highly poisonous thorn rhizome in the poisonous mist, and the poison contained in the thorns is all on its thorns and flowers and leaves, and its rhizome is tough and has the ability to detoxify. β
"And these fine grainsβ" Yun Lingxiu pointed to the fine grains inlaid in the tube, "they are the seeds of the thorns, which are extremely sensitive to poisonous gases. This kind of grass seed needs to peel off the petals when it is just formed, put it in the bag, and refine it with secret techniques, and then put it under a certain kind of poisonous gas, which can automatically identify that kind of poisonous gas, so it can be used as a guide. This Guan Tian's work is really exquisite, with fine pores to simply replace the poisonous mist, with fine pores and bright lines instead of the route, no matter where the poisonous gas is found, you can find it from this Guan Tian! β
"Come to think of it, the Mucuna Divine has made it remember the smell of poisonous gas around the Nether Tiger, so that it can always find its habitat accurately."
There was such a magical plant in the poisonous mist, Chu Mo nodded, put the tube in his sleeve, followed the direction indicated by the tube, and Yun Lingxiu walked towards the poison mist.
Poison Mist, as the name suggests, is a swamp surrounded by poisonous gas. At the edge of the swamp is planted a circle of tall trees, and there are high ridges around the trees, so that the circle of poisonous gas mist is isolated on the swamp and does not spread to the entire vast continent.
Yun Lingxiu pointed to the row of tall and straight trees, and said lightly, "This is a Siamese tree, the body of the tree has small pores, and it does not absorb poisonous mist and other gases, so it has the effect of isolating the mist. The area was already very humid, and the gas sank, so the poisonous gas accumulated. β
"In addition, there is a spell here, even if it is a sunny day, the fog is thin, and it is difficult for the poisonous gas to overflow the poisonous mist."
Chu Mo nodded, and followed Yun Lingxiu towards the insider. The swamp was covered with muddy water, covered with layers of algae, and shrubs and trees were intertwined, and the branches of the shrubs and trees were bright red and grew in a thick mist.
Beneath the muddy water that seems to be shallows, I don't know how muddy and deep the swamp is hidden. Chu Mo clenched the ten thousand poison bags in her hand, and when those dancing bodies with poisonous gas met her, they naturally separated to both sides, as if they didn't dare to approach.
It was a wooded forest, with branches growing in secluded waters, uncovered with grass, muddy, and countless unknown insects swimming in the water, glowing with colorful light, all of which were obviously highly poisonous.
Nor are they like ordinary trees, with their trunks erect and their branches small and facing upwards, like a large umbrella; Rather, the branches are facing downward, like a palm with countless fingers grasping downward, and the branches are thick and piercing into the water from all sides of the main trunk.
As far as the eye can see, the green branches and leaves seem to be cut off from the branches, and they are all roots and branches like withered claws. Each tree is surrounded by these branches into a single tree, and from a distance, this forest area seems to be full of trees that can walk, and countless antennae grow within two feet above the surface of the water, like an octopus with a big tree on top of it.
While exploring the way, Yun Lingxiu took Chu Mo to cross over the branches of those trees, and then used his strength to skim the shallow muddy water, avoiding the low-lying shallow water, and walking all the way towards the center of the poisonous fog.
