Chapter Ninety-Three: Lei Mu
Hearing the description of the old man before, this thunder wood should also be standing up to the sky, with a radius of dozens of zhang, huge and majestic.
However, what I saw was a hundred times different from what I expected.
The square is very wide, accommodating tens of thousands of people is not a problem, Lei Mu is in the center, but the distance it occupies is only a few meters in a radius.
A piece of dry and broken wood, stuck in the soil, the bark of the tree is yellow, and there is still some charred black on it.
The broken wood is more than a meter high, lonely, not to mention leaves, but there is not even a branch, it looks like a piece of driftwood in the river, which has been inserted here.
But this place is the center of the city, and all the pedestrians around them can't help but lower their voices and slow down their pace, and mortals are even more respectful, and sometimes some people come forward to worship.
"Is this really Thunderwood?" Ling Zhi couldn't believe it.
He thought that he would see a scene like the Colorful Soul Cultivation Lotus here, but he didn't want to fall so far behind.
"It's because it's devoured too much lightning, and although it can still hold lightning, it's dead?" Ling Zhi questioned, looking at the dry and charred half-cut of trees.
After watching for a while, Ling Zhi walked towards the center of the square.
As we got closer, the dead wood dried, and the smell and appearance of decay became more and more distinct.
And you can't feel the slightest breath of thunder and lightning.
"Woo. Just when Ling Zhi thought that this might just be a legend, and the old man was just talking nonsense, the grunt in his arms suddenly screamed.
The little paws fluttered at Lei Mu who pointed forward, and the little eyes were extremely bright, and he couldn't help himself with excitement.
Suspiciously, following the direction of Gollum's point, Ling Zhi walked around the piece of wood.
A touch of green, imprinted into the eye.
Behind the thunderwood, in a cracked crevice, it was like a dry and cracked wood, but a young shoot was pulled out of it.
The shoots are very small, only about the size of a little finger, but in the back of the piece, they are very visible.
Dead wood in spring, a second life.
"It seems that I heard Zhou Xuanqing's cheap master say something, all things are yin and yang, death breeds life, life moves towards death, twisting and blending. Is this the birth of new life in death?" Ling Zhi frowned, unable to understand why there was still vitality and the power of life circulating in such a realm.
Swish.
Ling Zhi was distracted, and the Gollum in his arms suddenly slipped off his body, and Gollum rolled under the thunder wood.
Lei Mu was a few feet in circumference, no one was standing in it, and there was no way to stop it, and Gollum's move was too sudden, and it couldn't help but attract the attention of some people who were worshipping around him.
"Gollum, come back!" Ling Zhi said urgently.
No matter what Lei Mu is, looking at the appearance of the people around him, it is similar to what the old man said, which is equivalent to the belief of everyone in Lei City, but he knows very well that belief in this kind of thing is the most taboo for others to blaspheme.
Gollum turned its head and looked at Ling Zhi suspiciously, it could understand Ling Zhi's words, it shook its head, and actually rejected Ling Zhi.
"Woo. With a purr, he stretched out his paws and pointed at Raimu, and then at himself.
"Huh?" Ling Zhi frowned, unable to understand what Gollum meant.
"What is this little beast, and how did it get in?" exclaimed, someone around covered their mouths.
"I seemed to see it roll for a while, and I rolled to Thunderwood. Someone hesitated, not sure.
"Fart, how is it possible, there is a huge power of thunder and lightning within a few zhang around Lei Mu, once there is a change, it will burst out, not to mention this little beast, even those adults in my Thunder City, I dare not bear it easily. "The more people gathered, some people heard the words and cursed.
"Gollum, come back. Ling Zhi looked at the gathered crowd and said anxiously.
If he hadn't heard someone talking about the power of thunder and lightning around Lei Mu, he would have been eager to step down and pick up the little beast back.
However, Gollum ignored him this time, and even stuck out his little tongue at Ling Zhi, looking naughty, and turned around and pressed his little paw towards Lei Mu.
"It's over, it's over, this little beast looks a little spiritual, quite extraordinary, but if you come into contact with Lei Mu so directly, can you still have a life?"
Before Ling Zhi could react, he rushed forward to bring the little beast back, and Gollum's claws were already pressed on the thunder wood.
Then Gollum pressed her two little paws against the trunk of the tree, and her little eyes closed, not knowing what was happening.
"Hey, why wasn't it attacked by Lei Mu?" there was a lot of discussion in the audience, looking at this scene in puzzlement.
Calling a few times anxiously, Gollum didn't have any response, Ling Zhi didn't hesitate anymore, he didn't dare to risk Gollum, even if it was really extraordinary, but after all, it was still very small, even the snow-white beast had mentioned that it was too small now, incapable, and a little fragile.
stepped on the foot, and rushed to the dangerous range of Lei Mu in three or two steps.
"Friend, think twice, the power of thunder and lightning around this thunder wood is not easy to mess with. Someone kindly reminded.
However, Ling Zhi couldn't care so much, cautiously guarded, and stepped into it.
The feeling of air, which was completely different from before, suddenly became very dry, and there was a slight tingling sensation in the feet.
Ling Zhi stepped forward again, and called out to Gollum.
The sound of crackling came from my ears, and the surrounding air was filled with electricity, and as I entered, the balance of these powers was disrupted, colliding with each other, colliding, and making a scalp-tingling sound around me.
Ling Zhi's hair stood on end at this moment, and the clothes on his body appeared blackened, with a solemn face, staring at the space in front of him.
He had already approached within a kilometer of Lei Mu's surroundings, and although there was no major problem, he could clearly sense that the electricity in the space in front of him had swelled to an extremely terrifying level.
"Gollum. Trying to call the little beast again, under the crowd that gathered more and more around him, Ling Zhi didn't dare to hesitate any longer, if he alarmed someone he couldn't deal with, it would be extremely troublesome.
Take a step forward.
With a crackle, a bolt of lightning emerged from the void.
"Hey. There was a sigh from around, "I don't know which boy it is, so reckless." I'm afraid I'm going to end up in ashes. ”
This lightning bolt suddenly appeared from the void, and the hairs on Ling Zhi's body stood up almost at the same time, and a strong sense of crisis rushed towards him.
Although this lightning bolt was only the thickness of a finger and the length of an arm, in Ling Zhi's perception, it was no weaker than a thunderbolt that fell from the rainy sky.
Especially when this lightning bolt is so close to him.
The lightning was extremely fast, and the sudden appearance was like a blow to Ling Zhi's head.
The breath of death rushed in, and Ling Zhi quickly dodged, but because it appeared too suddenly and was too close, it didn't have any effect.
The lightning slashed at Ling Zhi's head, and at the last moment, a gray mist suddenly appeared from the back of his head, emitting a piercing ringing, and as soon as it appeared, he fled frantically towards the rear.
Disturbed by it, the lightning also reversed course and chased in the direction of the fog's escape.
