Chapter 137: The Sound of the Flute in the Misty Barren Valley
Before Qin Hua could replenish his spiritual power, the little wolf was thrown out of the spirit beast bag by Qin Hua and asked it to be in charge of guarding the entrance of the cave.
After the battle with the Misty Ghost Claw, the little wolf seemed to be exhausted, and he lay down in front of the large rock blocking the entrance to the cave, and soon fell asleep.
And in the valley floor, which is not known how deep it is from Qin Hua's temporary cave mansion, there are arm-thick vines, which are intertwined with each other, covering the entire valley floor tightly.
The skin of the vine is transparent, and there seems to be blood flowing inside, and occasionally it beats, interweaving and weaving, like blood vessels that transmit blood.
There are many leaves growing on the blood-red vines, all of which are blue-yellow, perhaps caused by the white mist that has shrouded the valley all year round and does not see the sun, but the leaves show signs of life vigorously, and there is no sense of defeat at all.
The shape of the leaf resembles the palm of a human hand, with five fingers of varying lengths. From a distance, it looks like many people's palms have been inserted alive on the vines, which looks particularly strange and terrifying.
Underneath some of the slightly larger leaves, there were many pitch-black fruits that looked like the claws of wild beasts, and these fruits varied in size, the larger ones were exactly the same as the claws of the misty ghosts, and they were all covered with a thick layer of pitch-black scale armor.
Suddenly, the three toes on a fruit the size of a misty ghost claw squirmed, and after a few breaths, the fruit actually moved again, and then the wriggling became violent, until a "plop" sounded, and the fruit fell straight to the bottom of the vine.
The fall of this fruit seemed to have caused some kind of chain reaction, and I saw that in the blood-red vines, the sound of "plopping" sounded continuously, and finally they all joined together.
After half a pillar of incense, there was a "rustle" sound on the ground below the vines, and then countless misty ghost claws climbed up to the vines, and the black pressed one.
When Qin Hua and the Misty Ghost Claw were fighting, many of the corpses of the Misty Ghost Claw were thrown out of the cave and fell to these vines at the bottom of the valley, and the vines seemed to feel that these fallen Misty Ghost Claws had cut off all life, and they were like animals, squirming violently, and there seemed to be a faint roar coming out.
In the stone cave, Qin Hua was still replenishing his spiritual power, Guqinqin's face looked very anxious at this time, and he wanted to wake Qin Hua up several times, after all, when they had just fought with the Misty Ghost Claw, there was such a big movement, and no one dared to guarantee that there was no other unknown thing in this misty barren valley that would be awakened.
Gu Qinqin glanced at Qin Hua again, and when he saw that Qin Hua's face had become ruddy and his breathing was very steady, he was about to step forward to wake Qin Hua up. Suddenly, the little wolf, who was lying on the edge of the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, suddenly moved his ears, and then, as if frightened, the little wolf stood up with his hair standing on end, and stood up with a pout.
The little wolf and Qin Hua were connected, he felt the little wolf's fright, opened his eyes, and asked in surprise, "Little wolf, what's wrong with you?"
"No... I don't know, I just heard something approaching us, and the smell of this thing made me feel very frightened. The little wolf said with some trembling.
Qin Hua was startled in his heart, and was about to leave here with Guqinqin and the little wolf, when suddenly there was a slight tremor from the entire stone cave, sprinkling the dust on the top of the cave on the two of them.
Qin Hua and Gu Qinqin's faces changed color at the same time, and they didn't dare to stay in the cave for half a moment, so they immediately rushed to the entrance of the cave and smashed the big stone blocking the entrance of the cave with one palm.
Qin Hua threw the little wolf into the spirit beast bag, and then blocked in front of the guqinqin, and rushed towards the outside of the cave. But as soon as his feet reached the edge of the hole, he gasped and slowly retreated.
Gu Qinqin didn't know why, turned his head to look outside, only to see that he didn't know when outside, blood-red vines like huge earthworms appeared, covering the sky and covering the entire hole.
Guqinqin's scalp was numb for a while, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed from her forehead unconsciously, and she suddenly had a sense of fear that the end was coming.
"Qin Hua, what is this? What should we do now?" Guqin Qin said to Qin Hua's divine sense.
Qin Hua's face turned pale for a while, and he didn't know what to do now.
"Senior sister, don't you know what this thing is? I feel that this thing is very powerful, so powerful that it has exceeded my cognition, and it seems that I am like a small ant in front of this thing. ”
"Click... Click..."
At this moment, cracks the thickness of an arm appeared on the stone walls around the cave, and blood-red vines suddenly came out of the cracks and shot at Qin Hua and Guqinqin.
"Senior sister, be careful. ”
Suddenly, a blood-red vine the thickness of a child's arm wrapped around Guqinqin's waist, Qin Hua's eyes were quick, and the sword slashed at this vine fiercely.
However, the vine was not directly split in two as Qin Hua imagined, the vine was only cut out of a small opening by the Immortal Sword, and a few drops of liquid with the smell of blood flowed out, and it healed again in the blink of an eye.
It was because of Qin Hua's strength that the vines flew out, which allowed Guqin Qin to escape dangerously.
Qin Hua's heart sank, he watched these blood-red vines constantly approaching the two of them, and suddenly a sense of powerlessness rose. But Qin Hua didn't give up any hope of living, he remembered that the misty ghost claw was afraid of firelight, and hurriedly threw countless fireballs at those vines with the mentality of giving it a try.
The fireball fell on the vines, as if it had been thrown into the water, and it didn't even spark for a moment, it was extinguished in an instant, and Qin Hua's heart was cold again, and he fell into deep despair.
The little wolf in the spirit beast bag sensed the crisis outside, and kept fluttering in the spirit beast bag, wanting Qin Hua to release it.
Qin Hua not only ignored the little wolf, but instead put a layer of prohibition on the spirit beast bag, tightly binding the little wolf in the spirit beast bag.
Qin Hua knew that in the face of absolute power, everything was illusory. Even if the little wolf's bloodline has a deterrent power, it will not have any effect in the face of this kind of existence that they can't understand, after all, the little wolf has not grown up yet. And only by letting the little wolf stay in the spirit beast bag and not exposing the little wolf, the little wolf may be able to win a glimmer of life.
There were more and more cracks, and blood-red vines kept coming out of the cracks. After experiencing Qin Hua's Immortal Slashing Sword, they seemed to have an extremely strong interest in Qin Hua and the two, and they seemed to be playing cat and mouse, trapping Qin Hua and Guqinqin in the cave, slowly shrinking the encirclement, until Qin Hua and Guqinqin were back to back, and there was no room to retreat.
Qin Hua and Gu Qinqin both fell into deep despair, and they squeezed each other's hands tightly, for fear that if they let go, they would lose each other. The two looked at the blood-red vines that were getting closer and closer, slowly closed their eyes, and no longer made any fearless resistance, quietly waiting for death to come.
At this moment, from the depths of the valley outside the cave, a melodious flute suddenly sounded, Qin Hua and Guqinqin were amazed and immediately opened their eyes.
I saw that after the flute sounded, the blood-red vines that were constantly approaching them suddenly stagnated, and then the vines began to tremble slightly, and then ignored Qin Hua and the others, and quickly shrank into the cracks.
At the same time, on the four walls of the stone cave, on the cliff outside the cave wall, there was a sudden rustling sound, Qin Hua immediately looked up and found that there were groups of ants emitting white mist on the surrounding stone walls coming out of the stones.
These ants and their heads were the same size as ordinary ants, their bodies were snow-white, without a trace of variegation, and the white mist emitted from their bodies was exactly the same as the white mist in the Misty Barren Valley, which could shield the divine sense.
The snow-white ants seemed to be the natural enemies of this blood-colored vine, although they were small, but after they climbed densely onto the vines that Qin Hua had slashed with the Immortal Slashing Sword, they quickly devoured a vine.
I don't know if Qin Hua was dazzled, this little ant crawled extremely fast, and it was as illusory as if it was teleporting.
The blood-colored vines retreated quickly, and the snow-white ants pursued faster, and all the vines that reached into the cave turned into a snow-white in the blink of an eye, and then turned into a pile of debris and scattered on the ground of the cave.
Qin Hua and Gu Qinqin were stunned when they saw this scene, and to their surprise and magic, these ants didn't seem to be interested in the two of them at all, and they walked around them one after another.
Qin Hua watched the vines in the cave being wiped out, and cautiously came to the edge of the cave with the guqinqin, only to see that the vines climbing on the cliff wall also instantly turned snow-white.
Even in the hazy white mist, there were snow-white ants with wings, densely packed with goose feather snow, and they soon turned the blood-colored vines waving in the white mist into snow strips, until all the vines turned into a pile of residue and spilled deep into the valley floor.
After a stick of incense, all the vines in Qin Hua and Guqinqin's sight disappeared cleanly, and those snow-white ants did not know where to go.
But the sound of the flute did not stop, but became more and more high-pitched and the rhythm became faster and faster, as if a fierce battle was hidden in the sound of the flute.
Qin Hua and Guqinqin knew that someone had saved them, and they were grateful, seeing that the sound of the flute did not stop, knowing that the battle between the white ants and the blood-colored vines was not over, they did not leave without permission, and stood quietly at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the end of this battle beyond their cognition.
After another half an hour, the sound of the flute finally slowed down from tense and high-pitched, and finally stopped.
"Thank you for the life-saving grace of the seniors, and the younger generations will definitely remember it. Qin Hua and Guqinqin bowed deeply in the thick white mist, and then said in unison.
The voices of Qin Hua and the others echoed throughout the valley, never dissipating for a long time, and the two stood in place and waited for a long time, but no one responded to them.
Just when the two thought they wouldn't get a response, a somewhat bewitching male voice came into their minds.
"Go, get out of the Misty Wasteland, don't come again, this is not the place you should be. ”
Qin Hua and Gu Qinqin were about to answer, when those hazy white mist suddenly turned into a huge palm, grabbed them, and then threw them fiercely.
