Chapter 389: Underwater Shadows
The black shadow suddenly appeared, and spread against the stone, and in an instant it was about to climb up my arm, and its form and movement were no different from that of a snake.
When I saw the anomaly, I reacted subconsciously.
He pulled his hand back sharply, distancing himself from the stone, and at the same time condensed a powerful force in his hand, ready for confrontation.
There are those who move faster than me.
The shadow had already made a move in the dark, only to hear a "click", accompanied by a black light, and a faint ripple trace floated in the water.
The black shadow had been cut in two by him, and even the stone had a huge crack.
I immediately looked at the black shadow that had been cut off, there was no movement, it did not look like a living thing, after it was cut off, it fell into the water, and there was no blood stain or anything.
When I saw what the black shadow was, I couldn't help but be stunned.
It was not a fairy or a monster that fell to the bottom of the water, but a thorn of tree roots.
I picked it up and looked at it carefully, and made sure that it was woody, just an ordinary tree root, and nothing else was special.
Just as I hesitated, the other end of the severed end, the black shadow on the stone, instantly drilled out.
I didn't even see what was going on, the black shadow had already come in front of me, and I didn't have time to react too much, so I subconsciously raised my hand to resist.
But the shadow didn't target me at all, and it didn't need me to resist at all, it bypassed me on its own, bent past me and rushed behind me.
It dawned on me that its target was not me, it was the shadow behind it.
Is this guy taking revenge?
The shadow had cut it off just now, so that now it was making a strong move, thinking about the shadow in the shadows.
Shadow had already resisted, churning in the water, stirring up the chaos in this side of the water, and only faint shadows could be seen, but still no specific movements could be captured.
I thought that Shadow would be able to deal with it, but within a few minutes, the situation reversed.
The shadow was actually entangled by the black shadow, wrapped like a rice dumpling, and lost the ability to move.
This is the person sent by Ji Yun to protect me, but now that it is like this, don't talk about protecting me.
It's not that the shadow isn't strong enough, it's that this black shadow is too weird.
I have nothing to do with Shadow, and there is no need to sacrifice my life and forget about death for him, the first reaction in my heart is how to get out of myself, don't be planted here.
If you get trapped in the water, it's not just about the enemy in front of you.
As my heart was pondering, Shadow suddenly screamed for some reason, as if she had suffered some kind of unbearable pain.
Then, the shadow slammed into the water and threw it out of the water.
I could tell that the shadow was injured, but not in danger of his life, and that the shadow had no intention of harming him.
While I was wondering, I suddenly felt darkness around me.
The dark shadow lifted me up from all sides, and looking at the posture, it seemed to want to entangle me and surround all my retreats.
I condensed the power of the Yellow River Jue in my body, and I was ready to rush out.
"Little one, don't you remember me?"
A familiar voice came to my ears.
I was stunned, and I couldn't help but think about the owner of this voice.
I've definitely heard this voice before, but it seems to be a little too old for me to remember for a while.
However, I soon remembered that this voice was an acquaintance of Wenshuihe.
Old Treant.
It was the old dead tree that witnessed my marriage with Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Jiu had been in the coffin formed by its roots for more than ten years.
It is very mysterious and powerful, and it can be known and felt throughout the entire Wenshui River.
He once reminded me of my secrets.
This time, when I came back, it didn't take the initiative to look for me, and I even ignored this person.
If I want to find all the drunkards, I should go directly to it, as long as it is within the range of the Wenshui River, it can know everything, because its roots are all over the Wenshui River.
No wonder it was the knot tree root that was cut off by the shadow just now, the root of the old tree spirit.
Everything was explained.
I also breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and the strength in my body converged.
"Old Tree Senior!?" I called.
The other party immediately responded: "Hehe, I thought you forgot about me." ”
I said, "How dare you?" The seniors have instructed the juniors, but they have never thanked you for their advice, but this time they came in a hurry and did not visit you. ”
"Haha, you kid is getting better and better at talking during the time you've been outside."
It has gone through countless characters, and it can still be heard for such kind words, and there is not much nonsense.
"I've known since you came back, and I know everything about your situation, so don't say anything else, this time I took the initiative to find you, for the sake of the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate that you want."
"The cornerstone of the gantry? Seniors are also interested in the cornerstone of the gantry? I asked.
What Ji Yun wants, if the old tree spirit also has a plan, it will be a little difficult to do.
The old tree spirit said directly: "That's right, I want the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate, and I've been planning around here for a long time." ”
I pondered for a moment, and then asked: "I saw it just now, the cornerstone of the dragon gate in this stone, looking at the area is not small, there may be a piece, since the seniors need it, then I will take it out and take a little, and leave the rest to the seniors." ”
"There are indeed several cornerstones of the gantry, and if I wanted to take them out, I would have done it a long time ago, and I don't have to wait until now. Now I'm just using the root system around here to absorb its power, and I don't occupy it, but because of the dragon gate on this, once the dragon gate cornerstone is moved, the dragon gate will also be different. ”
The old dryad's words were something I didn't know before.
It is true that the cornerstone of the dragon gate is connected to the dragon gate, but since the old tree spirit mentioned it, it will definitely not be so simple, and there must be other special circumstances.
"Senior, please make it clear."
It said: "As you know, the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate is the foundation of the formation of the Dragon Gate, once it is taken out, the entire Dragon Gate will also collapse, and the powerful fluctuations released are no less than the release of the Dragonfall Qi at night some time ago, and the movement and impact caused are also very great. ”
"And the most serious thing is that after the collapse of the Dragon Gate, the Nine Dragons will fall down and appear on the Wenshui River, and at that time, the Nine Dragons will not disappear for a long time, and what will happen again is unpredictable."
To say that the cornerstone of the dragon gate is taken out, the dragon gate will disappear and collapse, this I can understand.
But what does this have to do with the coffin in Kowloon?
But the old dryad shouldn't lie to me, and since it said so, there must be some truth to it.
I had to figure out what was going on first.
"What does this have to do with the Nine Dragons pulling the coffin?"
The old tree spirit replied: "You saw a few days ago, the Nine Dragons coffin was pushed out of the Dragon Gate, and then disappeared on the Wenshui River, in fact, it was invisibly returned to the Dragon Gate, and now it is hanging on the edge of the Dragon Gate, once the Dragon Gate collapses under the special force, the Nine Dragons Coffin will fall with it, and it may also lead to the fake guy, the consequences are unimaginable, and it is not something you can deal with now." ”
Listening to its meaning, it seems that I have a deep understanding of the Nine Dragons Coffin and the Dragon Gate, and I also know that the Nine Dragons Coffin is on the edge of the Dragon Gate.
Could it be that it could still know the land of the river of blood.
I thought about it in my heart, so I asked tentatively, "What is hidden behind the knowledge of the predecessors of the Dragon Gate?" ”
The old tree spirit's voice became a little shocked, and he immediately retorted: "I don't know, I only know about these situations by relying on my own specialness. ”
It replied simply, it didn't know anything, and didn't say anything about the Land of Blood.
I don't know if it's true or not, but what I can understand is that this guy must be hiding something, and it's definitely not as simple as it seems.
This old tree spirit, I used to think that it was a long life.
Now it seems that Xiao Jiu was able to survive under its protection for more than ten years and not appear in the living coffin, it must be because this old tree spirit is unusual, and it must have something special.
"So what should I do now?" I asked.
This matter was stopped by the old tree spirit, it must have some plan, it can't just let me go back.
The old tree spirit immediately said: "The best way is naturally to give up the Dragon Gate Cornerstone, don't touch it, if you really want it, wait until the Dragon Gate disappears, and then get it." ”
"How long will it take?"
"Three or five years." The old dryad gives an approximate time.
This is something that Ji Yun has never seen, and no one has given me such a time, which is already accurate.
But in the past three or five years, I'm afraid I can't wait.
Ji Yun originally told me that everything was good, everything is according to fate, but the state he is showing now is that he has to get the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate, and he doesn't want to wait any longer.
And I do use Ji Yun in some places, such as Qi Drunkard and others, who are now in Ji Yun's place and are taken care of by him.
If I really can't get the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate, I'm afraid Ji Yun won't have a very good face for me, and even if he is willing to take care of me, I will be embarrassed myself.
In addition, I am also worried that Ji Yun will think of another way, and I will definitely get the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate.
It was hard to guess what these people were thinking, and if he could come here at a huge risk with his body that he couldn't use his Dao Xing, he would definitely not let it go so easily.
If you want to have no troubles and no other problems, you still have to take back the cornerstone of the gantry.
"If I have to take the cornerstone of the dragon gate, what is the compromise?" I continued to ask.
The old tree spirit said to me: "I know that you are also difficult to do, that Ji Yun does have some identity and Taoism, and he is not a good stubble, since he is eyeing you, he will definitely not be able to talk well, if you don't bring back the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate, he will definitely force you to come again." ”
"And if you have to take away the cornerstone of the Dragon Gate, and you don't want to affect the Nine Dragons to pull the coffin, so as to avoid the disaster, there is only one way, and that is to start from the Dragon Gate."
