5.2 Crossing the Perilous Realm (3)

The sky began to darken, and night was approaching, and the dark forest was gradually shrouded in mist, and from time to time there were many indescribable strange roars in the distance, which made people feel a little creepy.

Husang looked up at the sky and said, "I think it's getting dark, we have to find a place to rest at night." ”

"yes, I'm going to break my foot." Ke Zhenshi answered listlessly in the back, but after seeing Rui Gong glancing at him in the afterglow, he immediately raised his head and straightened his chest again.

Rui Gong slowed down and said, "Let's see if there are any caves or tree holes nearby, what do you think?" ”

Everyone raised their heads in unison, stared at Xiao Fenghuang with their eyes, and nodded. After all, they are walking on the ground, and Xiaofeng Huang can fly in the sky, and he doesn't care about the terrain, which is much more convenient than them. Xiao Fenghuang watched them one by one, and finally made sure that no one would help him, so he chirped aggrievedly and flew out reluctantly.

Seeing Xiao Fenghuang fly away, Ke Zhenshi and Husang cheered proudly, they didn't encounter any danger all day today, which made them feel very happy.

Rui Gong pursed his lips and said, "Aren't you afraid that he is in danger?" After all......"

"The elder said that he needs to be trained!" Husang pretended to be serious and said.

Ke Zhenshi also pretended to be serious, shook his head and said, "Whether it's good or bad, it's providence." ”

"Ahh Rui Gong flicked Ke Zhenshi's head with his fingers.

In this way, Husang and the three teenagers found a clean stone and sat down in place, and you and I chatted casually.

The sky darkened, faintly revealing the shape of the moon and stars.

Finally, Dai flew back lightly and said, "Chirp, tweet, you come with me." He flapped his wings, looked confidently at the beings, turned his head to the side and gestured to the front, and flew towards it.

They followed Dai forward, and gradually, the sound of "whooshing" water came to their ears. The sound of the water became louder and louder, and everyone walked in the dense forest for a long time before they saw a large river dozens of meters wide in front of them.

"It's the river again!" I only heard Di Qingchuan gasp and said coldly.

Indeed, along the way, they have experienced many difficult and dangerous situations of crossing the river, such as in the glacier, in Luoyuan, and in the Ning River, each of which is a great test, even life-threatening; So much so that when faced with such a wide river again, sorrow was written all over everyone's faces.

"Me. No. Think. Again. Pass. River. Finish. Ke Zhenshi said word by word. Even the most optimistic of him has reached the point of talking about the discoloration of "water".

However, Rui Gong was calmer, and she found that Dai's flight route was not to cross the river, but to go upstream, so she persuaded everyone, "We don't go to the river, but not the river." Follow Dai right! ”

The stars in the night sky gradually increased, and the color of the forest became darker, and many green trees exuded a faint glow; In the air, faint and fine fluorescent particles are dancing and changing, it may be that the flowing water in the big river drives the air flow, and the green light particles rush down the river like a queue, like a flowing galaxy on the earth, which is amazing.

Rui Gong looked at the rushing river and star-like points of light below, and couldn't help but reach out and grab a handful in the void, but he couldn't touch anything except the cool night breeze, shook his head and climbed over quickly.

Dai led everyone up the river, over a small col, and suddenly a huge tree fell above the surface of the river in front of their eyes, and the branches several meters thick stretched to the other side of the river, and there was an extra section at the front.

Xiao Fenghuang flew over first, and the group followed with great difficulty. Everyone crossed the river, walked along the river, and walked a little further to the right front, only to see a hole under a mountain wall not far away.

Dai screamed and flew in. They hurried in. Looking around, the whole cave is about as high as two people stacked on top of each other, about twice as wide as the height, the two giant stone pillars at the entrance are like fangs, and the inner rock wall is very smooth, although it is not far from the river, and the cave is also very dry.

"It's not a bad place." Husang smiled and said, "Dai, I'll give you a credit first!" However, Emperor Xiaofeng ignored him.

"I'll go out with Qingchuan to get some fire, and you guys clean up the cave." Husang nodded to Di Qingchuan, and the two walked out together.

Rui Gong looked at the backs of the two, and there was a faint voice in his ears that was half joking and half complaining, "Why do I suddenly feel like I haven't taken a shower for a few days, and there seems to be something pressing on my body, which really makes me uncomfortable......"

I don't know how long it has been. Husang and Di Qingchuan haven't come back yet.

Suddenly, "Look at this! ”

Hearing Ke Zhenshi's voice, Rui Gong turned around and walked towards the cave, where on the back wall of the cave, there were some dry weeds on the ground, and one of the grass piles was recessed in the middle, much like the shape left by the beast lying on its stomach.

"What is this?" Ke Zhenshi asked quietly.

Without thinking, "What kind of monster dwelling is this?" ”

"The ...... of the beast Residence? Ke Zhenshi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then will this beast come back?" ”

"I don't know, but since it's Dai looking for it, if there's any danger - it's what they call 'Spirit Beast's Breath', then he should be able to detect it......"

After speaking, Rui Gong turned his head to look at Dai. Dai nodded slightly, "Safe, safe." ”

Ke Zhenshi nodded in disbelief and said, "Well, I hope so." He looked at the haystack and said, "Little girl, stay there, I'll clean it up first!" ”

Rui Gong chuckled at the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Oh? Today, the sun is coming out in the west, I can't see that you are quite a gentleman! ”

"Of course, when has I never been a gentleman!" Ke Zhenshi picked up the hay and spread it on the ground. Wearing it aside, he blinked his bright eyes and watched Ke Zhenshi busy going around.

Ke Zhenshi drove him away and said, "Go, go, little thing, play while playing, don't get in the way." ”

There was nothing that could help Rui Gong on the side, so he circled around the stone cave, looked at the jade-like cave wall, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it. It didn't matter to the touch, she felt that the touch of the stone was not as rough as an ordinary mountain stone, but had a warm feeling.

She poked her head out again, put the tip of her nose against the stone wall and sniffed hard, a faint strange fragrance entered her nose, and she suddenly felt a slight dizziness in her head. She hurriedly left the stone wall and turned her head, her eyes touching Ke Zhenshi's body. But this time, I saw two ghosts. Obviously, Ke Zhenshi was still busy with the hay, but one of them curled the corners of his mouth, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Not only that, a slightly charming light floated through the corner of Ke Zhenshi's eyes, which actually shocked Rui Zhen's body and mind, and his heart bloomed.

But it was this moment of physical and mental ripple that made Rui Gong feel excited, and suddenly she broke out in a cold sweat, she quickly shook her head, and secretly wondered if she hadn't rested well in the past two days, and even her spirit was in a trance. Ke Zhenshi, who is hated and heartless, how can he show favor to himself so gently and emotionally?

Sure enough, Ke Zhenshi laid out the last handful of straw without any abnormality, smoothed it out decently, and exhaled, "Okay! I'm going to take a breath first. With that, he got up and walked out of the cave.

Rui Geng nodded mechanically, feeling an irrepressible sleepiness inexplicably, "I really want to sleep." She looked at the haystack, which was not badly laid, and suddenly saw a shadow that looked exactly like herself fluttering up to the haystack and lying down.

Rui was startled, "I won't just fall asleep, will I?" This inexplicable thought made her heart panic, and she hurriedly raised her feet and walked out of the cave.

Out of the hole, the air outside was fresh, but Ke Zhenshi's figure was missing, so Rui Gong slowly walked along the river. The moon had risen high, casting its cold moonlight on the lonely forest, surrounded by starlit mountains and shadows swaying in the wind.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Rui Gong thought to himself as he walked, "Thunder City must be brightly lit now." ”

The night of Thunder City is a bizarre night, a sleepless night, a night of fire trees and silver flowers, and a night when holographic projection advertisements cover all the high-rise buildings. The stars or moon in the sky, under the reflection of the city's power light source below, turned out to be as false and distant as the scenery.

Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Rui Gong's mouth. She finally had a chance to escape the never-dormant urban beast and get up close and personal with the natural forest, hill or riverbank. She kept walking until a blood-red glow appeared out of the corner of her eye.

Although there are other colors at night in the mountains and seas, the forests are generally light green and light blue, and this red light is so dazzling that Rui Gong has to take a closer look at it curiously.

I saw a strange tree standing proudly in a forest not far ahead. Compared with other towering ancient trees that are often hugged by several people, the tree is not tall, and even looks a little small, and the whole tree is faintly colored, strong and weak, as if beckoning to her.

Rui Gong frowned, wanting to go over and see what was going on. As soon as he opened his legs, the tree suddenly shook violently, and the leaves rattled. The voice was particularly loud in the silent forest, and Rui Gong's body trembled, her hair stood up involuntarily, and her heart beat wildly.

After a while, her beating heart finally calmed down, and her stubborn courage and curiosity regained the upper hand, she took a deep breath and leaned over cautiously.

But he didn't think that when Rui Gong got closer, the trunk of the tree swayed violently again, as if something was shaking the tree there. She stared at the tree warily and slowly took a few steps back, only to find that the tree was still glowing brightly and weakly, and there was nothing unusual about it.
