Chapter Twenty-Eight: My Name is Gu Xuan
On an ordinary branch that branched out horizontally from the tree, three people as small as caterpillars were sitting on it, carefully examining each other.
The Spirit Clansman who looked as handsome as a woman, and also had a pair of beautiful emerald green eyes, looked straight at Gu Xuan, the expression on his face and the tone of his voice looked very serious, no, it should be said that he was a little naΓ―ve.
"Why do you look at me so strangely, you must know more than that. β
Gu Xuanxin said of course, because he was obviously not from the Eastern Continent, and even if he was born and raised in the Eastern Continent, it must be inextricably related to the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, and there was no reason why he didn't know the Terran language, but these two things were not the same, and they couldn't be compared at all, so he just smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Butγγγγγγ β
Before he finished speaking, Adam, who had finally come to his senses, suddenly turned his head and asked, "But you are obviously a spirit person, as far as I know, the three major empires of the spirit race all say the same thing." β
The man nodded slightly, and after a slight hesitation, he finally explained, "I am not from the three major empires, and the place where I was born and raised has always spoken another language, which is called the ancient god language by people outside. β
Gu Xuan was still silently thinking about something, and here Adam couldn't help but exclaim: "What? Ancient Divine Language! It turns out that the legends are all true? It turns out that there are really other Spirit Clansmen in this world! Divine Tree, it's a Divine Tree, right?"
As he spoke, Adam, who had just almost fallen off the tree because of a moment of surprise, hurriedly grabbed the uneven bark hard, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his back, and he didn't even dare to look to the sides now.
At the same time, the person on the other side frowned slightly, obviously because of Adam's words and remembered something that made him unpleasant, so he didn't pay attention to Adam, Gu Xuan saw this, and hurriedly said: "Now is not a good time to discuss these things, by the way, hello, my name is Bao, his name is Adam, may I ask what we should call you?"
The man looked at Gu Xuan, with a hint of curiosity on his face, and did not avoid this question, but said directly: "My name is Allen, and there is nothing to hide, the truth is indeed the same as what he said, my ancestors have always lived in the sacred tree with us, isolated from the world, and I only came out recently." β
As he spoke, Adam, whose face was pale with fright, was still very enthusiastic about explaining to Gu Xuan.
It turns out that although the Spirit Clan people are in a state of internal fragmentation like the Earth Clan, unlike the Earth Clan, the Spirit Clan has always had a unified holy land, that is, the Divine Tree located in the southern part of the Eastern Continent!
The sacred tree is so large that just the branches that fall from the tree cover the land for several miles, covering the sky and the sun, and the branches have taken root on the ground, and after thousands of years, it has evolved into a whole forest, and according to legend, it is the place where the spirit people were first born.
After the ancestors of the Spirit Clan couldn't bear the loneliness and walked out of the Divine Tree Forest, they began to spread out and multiply, exploring this strange world, and finally occupied the entire southern part of the Eastern Continent and became the existence of the Riverland people.
However, at first, there was a small group of people who were unwilling to leave the ancestral land, and chose to stay in the Divine Tree Forest, they are also said to be the closest believers to the gods, so they have a very high status among the Spirit Clan, but for thousands of years, they have never heard of this group of people, no one has entered the Divine Tree Forest again, and no one has come out of the Divine Tree Forest, and gradually this has become a legend widely spread in the Eastern Continent.
In other words, the person in front of him may be the first spirit person to walk out of the Divine Tree Forest in thousands of years, what does this mean, Adam doesn't know at all, but he doesn't think this person is lying, because they have all fallen to this step, there is no need to make up stories.
Gu Xuan noticed some contradictions in this legend, and was about to ask one or two more questions, when Allen, who had been sitting quietly on the other side, suddenly stood up, faced outside, and said in a deep voice: "Something is coming!"
The next moment, a huge head slammed into the dense leaves from the outside, and instantly appeared in front of the three of them.
This is a cheetah with pure black coat, its streamlined perfect body, and its muscles full of explosive power, all declaring that it is not a character to be messed with, and at this moment, it is staring at the three people from different races in front of it with a pair of murderous eyes.
If it was usual, Gu Xuan thought that he could crush this kind of mindless beast by himself, but not now, because the leopard is still the same leopard, but in front of each other, they are not much different from ordinary caterpillars now, they belong to the kind that can be slapped down and can be easily slapped to death.
Gu Xuan didn't think about taking the risk to try the other party's catties first, because the difference in size between the two sides was too big and obvious, so he instantly picked up Adam, who was still in a daze next to him, and was about to make a noise for Alan to dodge together, but he didn't expect the other party to jump directly off the branch and fall vertically below.
"Damn it!"
Gu Xuan couldn't help but curse secretly, and then quickly pulled Adam with him, and also jumped off the branch, but unlike Allen's seemingly suicidal falling straight from the tree, he picked at the bark with one hand, his five fingers were like hooks, and with the friction of the bark buffering, he slid all the way down at a uniform speed.
The moment the three of them fled, the black panther who didn't know where it came from also reacted, and rushed down all of a sudden, compared to the size, he was actually not far from the ground, so it just kicked lightly on the tree, and easily used the power of the rebound to kill Allen in the air at a faster speed.
Being in mid-air, there was nowhere to borrow strength, even if Gu Xuan wanted to help the other party at this time, there was nothing he could do, so he could only yell "be careful", and then put all his attention on stabilizing himself and Adam's figures.
I saw that Alan actually twisted his body suddenly, and between the long emerald green hair that was as beautiful as his eyes flying, he actually successfully flipped in the air, turning into a behemoth facing him and rushing towards him.
His face was calm, and there was no fear in his eyes, and he grabbed the rough wooden bow on his back with his backhand, only to see that the wooden bow with a rough style that looked like a child had cut it with a knife at will, was gently flicked by his fingers without a bow and arrow.
"Whew!"
There was a sudden piercing roar in the air, as if something invisible was penetrating the space, and in the next moment, he saw that the leopard that had been rushing towards him suddenly tilted to the side, and there were three more blood holes in his shoulder, although it was not big, but it still made it let out a suppressed roar.
The black panther fell to the side, and at the same time, Alan also fell to the ground lightly like a weightless leaf, and then he did not hesitate, turned around and ran in the opposite direction, at the same time, Gu Xuan and Adam had just fallen from the tree to the ground, but unlike the other party's lightness, the two actually made a lot of noise when they landed.
Fortunately, the panther didn't pay attention to the movement behind it at all, maybe for it, two bugs and one bug were actually no different, it only focused on Alan who had just managed to hurt itself, and continued to pounce on him.
It's a pity that the three of them are too small, even if Alan runs fast, but the panther fell lightly in front of him with a pounce, blocking the way, helpless, he could only quickly stop, holding a wooden bow, and confronting the other party carefully.
In this case, it must be the most normal choice to escape while Alan and the Black Panther are stalemate with each other, this is not wrong, after all, human nature is actually selfish, not to mention the combat effectiveness between the two sides, it seems that staying can not provide much help, maybe in the end it is just for nothing, and the two sides are just strangers who have just known each other for less than half an hour, this is really no need to take risks.
But Gu Xuan and Adam did not leave because the other party had just saved him once, and he should repay the favor because of the other party, and Gu Xuan thought that in this kind of place, all those who could absorb their own combat power should choose to help win them over as much as possible, rather than choosing to give up on them.
In this place, the chances of three people surviving together are always greater than two people together, and from the fact that the other party did not hesitate to save Adam just now, and when the black panther attacked, he was powerless to fight the enemy alone, but he did not choose to lead the trouble, it can be seen that this person is not a bad person at least, so he also chose to stay.
Gu Xuan and Adam slowly walked out from behind Allen and stood side by side with him, Gu Xuan stared at the behemoth in front of him, which could be called a small mountain, and asked in a low voice, "No offense, but your bow can hurt it, right?"
Alan did not deny this, since this matter was already known to the other party, there was no need to hide it, so he also responded in a low voice: "I can still shoot three arrows." β
When Gu Xuan heard this, he already had a plan in his heart, so he immediately said: "Three arrows are enough, we don't want to kill it, this thing is so big, we won't be opponents if we can't do it, so if you want to escape, there is only one way, that is, shoot him blind, wait for me to attack head-on and attract his attention, Adam will help you from the side, and finally, you will complete the most important part, do you have any opinions?"
When Adam heard this, he immediately said with some concern: "Bao, can you hold it, let's come with me." β
In the end, he has half earth-like blood, tough skin, and is naturally very good at defense, even if he can't use aether energy here, he should be better than a human race, and he is a person who is willing to take responsibility, this is his attitude towards things.
But he didn't want to, Gu Xuan shook his head gently, and while he began to move his hands and feet, putting on a fighting posture, he comforted the other party very confidently and said: "Adam, believe me, I am not a blind and arrogant person, and, remember my real name, my name is Gu Xuan!"
