Chapter 24: Strike when it's time to strike
"Young man, get out of here! The monster at the top of the peak is beyond the reach of ordinary people like us. ”
The old man who practiced Tai Chi in the morning saw that Liu Yuenan did not leave, so he stepped forward to kindly remind him that he had packed his things and was ready to leave.
Liu Yuenan took a long breath, and his heart was shocked!
But he still asked in a calm voice: "Uncle, do you know what the peak releases a blue glow?" ”
The old man sighed and replied: "Since the cliff on the top of the peak collapsed for no reason, the mysterious blue light began to appear, at first, everyone thought that there was a peerless treasure, so they went to the peak to explore, but nothing was found, and a few young people were not convinced, and continued to stay on the top of the peak to explore, but something happened, until now there is no one alive, no corpse is dead, miserable!" Listen to the uncle's advice, leave quickly, don't always fantasize about being able to find a peerless treasure, and then get rich overnight, young people, you must learn to be down-to-earth, otherwise you will regret it as soon as you step on the empty foot! ”
"Uncle has taught me a lesson," Liu Yuenan hurriedly thanked him, and then asked, "Uncle, do you know when this mountain of green bamboo withered and turned yellow?" ”
The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked Liu Yuenan up and down again, and finally, he sighed helplessly and replied: "Since the blue glow appeared, the green bamboo on this green bamboo peak has begun to wither day by day, what is the specific reason, no one knows yet?" ”
"No one is curious, go up the mountain to find out?" Liu Yuenan frowned and asked strangely.
"Up the mountain? Still probing? This wave of people, there are always a few people who have lost their traces inexplicably, who thinks that their lives are long! Young man, get out of here, curiosity kills. The old man first mocked, and then persuaded Liu Yuenan to leave again.
"Shoot when it's time to shoot! Wow, in Kyushu! I'll fight! ”
Liu Yuenan pretended to agree, and when the old man walked away, he suddenly sang a good song and began to warm up.
"That buddy is sick! This early morning ghost cries wolf, trying to scare people to death! ”
Not far away, there were security guards cursing, they were all nervous to death, and there were still people singing heroic songs, isn't this intentionally blocking them?
"Hurry up and let that kid get out, it's too special to affect the mood." Another vigilante roared.
"Hey! There's something wrong with that kid! He...... What are you warming up for? ”
"I don't think I want to rush to Cuizhu Peak!"
"There's this stance!"
"Then he was dumped by his girlfriend one hundred and eighty times, otherwise...... Not so impulsive. ”
"! It's a dog, and it's really deadly. ”
"Hurry up and stop him, Cuizhufeng can't die anymore, otherwise we will all be fired."
Immediately, the whistle sounded, and a group of vigilantes rushed forward in an attempt to stop the deadly boy.
Even more angry roared: "You stop for me, tell you to stop, and if you dare to take a step forward, I will shoot." ”
However, Liu Yuenan, who turned into a whirlwind, seemed to have not heard of it, flew between the sand and stones, crossed the cordon in one step, and disappeared directly into the depths of the bamboo forest.
The old man who was leaving turned around, just saw this scene, was shocked and speechless for a long time, and then shook his head painfully, and sped up to leave.
And a group of security guards who realized it later, everyone's faces were covered with a layer of haze, and when they looked at each other, their apprehension and panic were fully revealed, and finally they all turned into a touch of fierceness and determination.
"What's next?" It was a long time before the vigilante whispered a question.
"Some people don't want to live anymore, we just want to stop it, but we can't stop it!" Someone replied.
"It's better to report to the top and listen to the captain's opinion." Another team member suggested so.
"For now, that's all there is to it, let that kid ask for more blessings! If he is dead, don't think that Lao Tzu will collect his body, this is what he brought on himself. ”
"Yes, self-inflicted, we've done our best."
A group of vigilantes discussed their arguments, and after reaching an agreement, they turned and left.
Speaking of Liu Yuenan, he was also worried that the group of security guards would follow him and prevent him from going up the mountain, but now it seems that that is completely superfluous.
Looking back, no one was coming, and he slowed down.
When he carefully inspected the surrounding situation, Liu Yuenan was surprised again, the situation on Cuizhu Peak was far more serious than he imagined.
But seeing the stone road cracked, the pavilion collapsed, the green bamboo withered, the yellow bamboo leaves fell with the wind, a bleak scene, which was very different from the green bamboo peak that Liu Yuenan once remembered, and it was unbearable to look back.
He couldn't help but think sadly, could this be what the earth's spiritual energy looks like after it has been seriously drained and even depleted?
It's horrible.
All the way forward, every time Liu Yuenan fell, there would be a clicking sound, it was the sound of the stone road breaking, not that Liu Yuenan's steps were heavy, but that the bluestone slab that had lost the blessing of spiritual energy became fragile, like foam, and could no longer bear Liu Yuenan's weight.
Liu Yuenan's mood became extremely heavy, at this moment, the conjecture of the two immortal cultivators had been completely verified, after the earth's spiritual energy was depleted, even the earth on which human beings depended would lose the ability to carry the future of human beings, what did this mean?
Destroy?
Or is it some kind of mysterious return, as Dong Yiran guessed?
Regardless of the final outcome, it is definitely a catastrophe for the current human race, and there is no way to avoid it.
Despite thinking all the way, Liu Yuenan still walked quickly to the peak.
When he saw a shining alien tree, rooted in the rubble of the collapsed cliff, his jaw was almost dropped.
It took a long time to react, and I couldn't help but exclaim: "! Is this a sapphire tree? It's so beautiful. ”
It is true that the sapphire tree, rooted in the rubble, is as bright as a blue coral, and under the baptism of the morning sun, it looks extremely holy, and the whole body flows with a blue mist, which is fragrant and intoxicating.
Liu Yuenan sniffed a few large mouthfuls of the fragrance, and actually had an impulse to further revel in it, so his feet involuntarily walked forward.
Suddenly, there was a roar in the void, and there was a popping sound above his head, Liu Yuenan suddenly woke up, and when he raised his eyes, he was instantly shocked.
Oh, my God! This is actually a demon tree.
The blue treasure tree, which was still holy and immaculate just now, actually came to life at this time, looking extremely hideous, and a blue branch grew rapidly, like a long whip, directly pumping towards the drone in the sky.
The drone quickly dodged, fired a miniature missile at the blue canopy again, and hit a branch with unmistakable accuracy, and with a loud 'boom', a small mushroom cloud rose from the blue canopy.
Liu Yuenan was suddenly surprised, and shouted 'Okay', thinking to himself, this demon tree is going to suffer a heavy blow.
However, to Liu Yuenan's astonishment, after the mushroom cloud dispersed, the branch that was hit by the miniature missile was actually only slightly injured and did not break.
