I have to say that the sea of bamboo in front of him really gave the Moon Sect Master too much shock, and from the excessive calmness in his last sentence, it was enough to show that he was forcing and suppressing the excitement in his heart at the moment.

Indeed, this bamboo forest is also too terrifying, although the few words in some of the texts have proved their existence, but when you see them with your own eyes, and when you understand their function and inner details, it must be difficult for anyone to keep their mood calm.

Of course, the Moon Sect Master was also thinking at the moment, and he was even wondering, why did this bamboo forest, which should have been extinct a long time ago, appear here, and when did it appear? Whether it is man-made or natural, what do they appear here and what do they express.

The previous experiences, Yuebai's mind began to flash continuously, and pieces of pictures composed of clear logic.

Coupled with the hints of the two soul attractors Wang Liu before coming here, all of them pointed to this place, so can it be understood that this place is also a very important place for his Moon Sect Master?

"The old ghost said that there were gods and demons in this land of rebirth, and here, there were also trapped demon bamboos that would only exist in ancient times, could it be that these two points are telling me that the purpose of the gods and demons, or the hidden dangers left in ancient times, is the root cause of my ghost merchant sect's disappearance in the world?"

Yuebai quickly came up with the answer, but after pondering it again, she found that there was a big time difference between the two.

"No, the first generation of the head of the Ghost Shang Sect appeared before the Sui Dynasty, or even earlier, but it is absolutely impossible to appear in the ancient period, that is to say, the establishment of the Ghost Shang Sect cannot have the slightest connection with something in the ancient period, it can only be said that later, the Ghost Shang Sect discovered the hidden dangers left over from the ancient period, so it was implicated!"

The Moon Sect Master's spiritual platform was rare and clear, he judged something in a matter of minutes, and then squatted in front of a sleepy ghost bamboo in front of him, and looked at the root of this bamboo.

"What are you looking at?"

The fat man listened to him muttering for a long time, and when he saw that Yuebai had no intention of leaving, he asked him what he was doing and whether he had made a new discovery.

"I have thought of the key reason for the decline of the Ghost Merchant Sect..."

Yuebai pointed to the bamboo in front of him, the part exposed on the barren sand, and said: "In this place of death, a long time ago, there was absolutely no such trapped ghost bamboo forest, this is the undoubted key, but if this bamboo appeared later, then it may have appeared here at the same time on the day of the decline of the ghost merchant sect in the world, so I want to see how deep the roots of this bamboo have grown, so that I can judge whether my guess is correct or not." ”

"Do you want to judge the time of the appearance of this bamboo forest by the length of the bamboo roots? If you don't dig a single one, it shouldn't be possible to know how deep they are into the ground! ”

"Maybe I don't need to dig a whole tree, I can know the answer!"

When Yue Bai said this, the golden rays in his eyes flashed frequently, almost condensing into substantial golden light, which seemed to be particularly eye-catching.

But this phenomenon lasted for a few seconds, and the golden glow in the Moon Sect Master's eyes disappeared again, and then, I heard him take a deep breath and say lightly: "Ten meters long!" ”

"How do you know?"

"It's very simple, my eyes can see any breath, including ghostly qi and yin evil qi!"

Yuebai smiled and explained: "Assuming that there is a ghost trapped in each bamboo node of this kind of bamboo, then the roots that go deep under the sand also have bamboo joints, that is to say, as long as there are ghosts and evil qi in the bamboo joints, I can see more, even if it is hidden deep in the ground, so I only need to follow the distance of the evil qi into the ground until I can't see the location, then the distance is the length of the roots deep into the ground." ”

"But the growth rate of this kind of bamboo, as well as their living environment, will have a poor impact on their growth, we don't know!"

"We can't know everything in the world, but we can't get close to the truth without guaranteeing and speculating."

Yuebai thought for a while and said, "Although there is no growth detail of the sleepy ghost bamboo in the world, we can speculate how many years it has grown according to the corresponding species, as well as the growth environment, the length and thickness of the bamboo, or how high this kind of bamboo grows every year." ”

"So how tall can this kind of bamboo grow in a year?"

The fat man looked up, estimated the average height of these bamboos, and said: "According to my naked eye, these bamboos are about fifteen meters, to be conservative, between thirteen meters and eighteen meters, and this height should also be the average height of this bamboo forest, so what do you think is the difference between their height and other bamboos in the world and them?" ”

"The upper half of this trapped ghost bamboo, and the part buried deep in the soil, can't be the same!"

Yuebai frowned and said: "The upper half of the bamboo, existing on the sand, seems to be nourished by more evil qi, in fact, on the contrary, you see, the evil qi in this land of rebirth should be the closer to the sand, the more intense, they are all deposited on the surface of the ground at a height of about one meter, so there will not be too much evil qi on the bamboo to nourish it, it should be the root, is the key." ”

"And the general purple bamboo, especially the purple bamboo in the world, the normal life span is between five and ten years, not counted in the requirements of commercial bamboo, so, in the area where the purple bamboo is located, its humidity, temperature, local precipitation, etc., various conditions are in line with the normal situation, the roots of the purple bamboo will be two meters, or even longer, and the bamboo nodes on the whole purple bamboo body, about four to fifty!"

"But you can't judge it by the environmental factors in the world, I think the environment here will make these trapped ghost bamboos grow more slowly, about ten to twenty times the growth rate of purple bamboo in the world, that is to say, if the purple bamboo grows one meter a year, then this trapped ghost bamboo will have to grow one meter in at least ten years, not counting the common problem and stagnation period of the bamboo itself!"

Speaking of this, Yuebai's voice stopped abruptly, and he leaked a look at the fat man, 'Dude is amazing', that kind of expression, as if waiting for the fat man to express his great admiration.

But the fat man picked his nose and made an expression of being too lazy to deal with the Moon Sect Master, and just when Yuebai had been looking forward to it for a long time, about to be unable to hold back, and took the initiative to ask for praise, the fat man flicked his fingers that had dug his nostrils, nodded, and said lightly: "Oh, that's the case!" ”

"Uh... Are you done? ”

"And what else do you want to hear?"

"Uh... All right! ”

Yuebai awkwardly lit a cigarette, looked at the unattainable bamboo forest again, and concluded: "Uh... I think that if according to my speculation just now, the existence time of this bamboo forest will not be less than three hundred years, and three hundred years ago, that is, around 1700, at that time, it should be the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, assuming that my speculation is correct, then the time when this trapped ghost bamboo appeared here was at least before Qingkang, and at that time, it was also the end of the decline of the ghost merchant sect in the world! ”
