Chapter 21: Gone Astray

After hesitating for a few seconds, I reached out anyway.

Instead of going inside, to covet the mysterious light inside the core, I picked up a piece of lightning strike wood on the ground.

If this is an ownerless thing, or I don't know Yu Qianer, then it can be regarded as risking my life, and I will also gamble on it, if it happens, Lao Tzu will be regarded as a glorious ancestor, and he can return to his hometown in fine clothes; If you lose, even if you die, you will die without regrets.

But the problem now is that it has a master, and the owner is an old man whom I respect very much, and people treat me very well.

I'm not a white-eyed wolf, I can't do the grace of a drop of water, and I will never repay the spring, and I will never take revenge.

To practice, you must not only cultivate the body, but also cultivate the mind.

If there is an obstacle in the heart, then even if it is a moment, a thousand miles a day, the future will be full of disasters.

To be a man, you must have to give and take.

I picked up the lightning strike wood, weighed it in my hand, felt the origin of the tree precipitated in it, and the majestic thunder, and most importantly, it barely repelled me.

This is the best lightning strike wood, and judging by the pattern on it, I feel like it should have nine turns.

Nine turns of lightning strike wood, is the best material in the world, such a thing, the value is immeasurable, I took one, I was already very guilty in my heart, no more greedy, in the pocket, turned around and left.

However, the moment I turned around, I met a pair of dark eyes.

It was a lizard-shaped reptile, with a flat and thick head, a less sharp snout than a lizard, a relatively round length, smooth skin with small warts, a bright fiery red, a weak ridge, a flattened tail, almost more than two meters long, and a black and white pattern similar to an eyeball at intervals on both sides of the body.

When I looked at it, its eyes, including the black and white patterns on the sides of its body, were also looking at me.

Just one glance, I felt stiff and frozen.

Overlord Salamander.

A name came to my mind, which came from the record in "The Twelve Methods of Suppressing the Mountains", saying that this thing likes to haunt the place where thunder and lightning merge, and has the physique to absorb thunder and lightning.

One of the most important habits is that this thing never appears alone, but moves in a nest.

A litter is estimated to have dozens or hundreds.

Sure enough, after spotting me, the overlord salamander spat out the letter in its mouth, and the red letter rubbed quickly in the air, making a strange and high-pitched cry.

From the narrow gap inside, there are countless similar ones like it, and all of them are roughly thick.

Oh no, the treasure here is so important, how could Yu Qianer not arrange it?

These overlord salamanders, I'm afraid they are just a means to protect this thing, right?

The golden snake Yu Qianer who guards the ancient tree of life has introduced it to me, and it won't hurt me, but these overlord salamanders are not familiar with me, where will they care about me so much, as long as they enter it, it will be regarded as a foreign enemy, just in that slight pause, the sarcoma on its forehead squeezed out, but it radiated an electric stick towards me.

When I saw the blue-purple electric stick, I sensed it, but my body still didn't react after all, and I took two steps back to the side and hit it.

The moment I was slashed, I felt numb all over my body, and a sharp heat flowed through the meridians of my body, so painful that I thought I was going to die.

Fortunately, at this time, the Thunder Sword Heart planted by the old Taoist priest in the Sea of My Consciousness moved slightly, absorbing the majestic thunder and lightning that was difficult to resist.

Taking advantage of this, I stepped back into the gap, and then jumped towards the circuit.

I used my hands and feet to climb down quickly, and when I heard a strange movement above my head, I looked up and saw the fiery red overlord salamander, which actually rushed in and climbed towards me quickly.

I was so frightened that I didn't dare to stay any longer, but hurried down, all the way down.

Slow up the tree, fast down the tree, I also fought for my life, several times almost didn't catch the bark, fell down, but the group of overlord salamanders above the head did not have the slightest intention of stopping, I did not dare to stay, several times the electric stick has already split my head, if it really stops, I am afraid that it will be split into charcoal.

I quickly slid down the clouds, thinking that these overlord salamanders would stop, but I didn't expect them to have a relentless temperament, and they still followed all the way.

I wanted to climb down, but suddenly I saw a dozen overlord salamanders appear below, spitting out letters, and crawling upward.

Belch......

Is there a connection between the inside of the tree?

I felt bitter in my heart, thinking that if the old man Yu Qianer was here at this moment, it is estimated that I would be a little more open-minded, but I should not have to worry about my life, but now, the problem will be troublesome.

I didn't dare to fight with this large group of overlord salamanders, so I turned and ran towards a larger branch.

Although the upper end of this ancient tree of life was struck by lightning, but under the clouds, it grew extraordinarily luxuriantly, and the main branches were huge, like bridges, and the surroundings were also intricate and dense, and I wanted to jump between them to avoid these horrible things.

In this way, I fled again and again, and I continued to flee to the periphery by the branches and leaves of the giant tree, and after running for about a quarter of an hour, I felt that there seemed to be something missing behind me.

I looked back and saw that there were only four or five on the opposite branch, and because of the distance, they did not jump.

My heart was relieved, and I was thinking about how to return, when suddenly something suddenly jumped above my head.

When I looked up, I saw a four-metre-tall salamander, much larger than its own kind, knocking me into the treetops and falling from the treetops.

Yes......

With a scream, I fell from the sky, numb from the lightning that the thing spewed, and I didn't even have the strength to stretch my hand.

Falling from a height, my back was constantly whipped by the branches, and it hurt fiercely.

But because of these dense foliage cushions, I didn't fall so quickly, and I don't know how long it took me to feel my back hit a huge plant, and then the world went dark, and my body was surrounded by some kind of thick slime.

Wait, it's hot......

I panicked, took out the golden sword from the Qiankun bag, and swung it around, hearing a tearing sound like a broken silk, and I fell heavily to the ground.

As I landed, there was something else.

I rolled to the side and got up to look, only to see that it was a large lump of flesh curled up in a ball.

Look at that appearance, it should be the insect man we met a few days ago, but at this moment it has long since lost its breath, and its body has been corroded by liquid, leaving only a skeleton and a little flesh and blood.

I looked up and found that what saved my life was actually a man-eating flower about three or four meters high.

Because it was subjected to the gravitational kinetic energy I had just had, it was cut open by my sword, and it was in a state of madness, the plant shook and slurry flew out.

I didn't dare to stay, so I crawled away, and then rolled around in the mud to wipe off the corrosive slime on my body.

It was only then that I looked around and realized that I was still under the canopy of the giant tree, but quite far from the main trunk.

I was wondering if I was going back when I suddenly heard a strange grinding sound.

Oh, my God?

What kind of grudge and what kind of grudge, actually chased here?

I can hear it, this voice is from the group of overlord salamanders just now, I didn't expect these guys to be so vindictive, they must kill me all before they give up.

I hesitated for two seconds, feeling that there was really no way to confront these overlord salamanders head-on, and it would be difficult to return home to me, so I had to leave temporarily.

Thinking of this, I turned around and ran away towards the perimeter of the tree.

I ran around in the dense forest until I was out of the woods, and then I felt that the overlord salamander behind me was finally gone.

I was so exhausted from running that I couldn't hold back any longer, and I just lay down in the grass next to me, letting my chest rise and fall, my lungs constantly stretching, and greedily inhaling the waking air.

Everything just now was so exciting.

A roller coaster ride that has been ridden a hundred times may not be able to catch up.

I was scared at first, but the more I thought about it, the more I regretted it, thinking that if I hadn't been assertive, waiting for Yu Qianer to come back, and then talking to him, I felt that with his temperament, this matter was only a matter of minutes, why should I take such a big risk?

It's like death, and now that I have no home to go back to, where should I go?

I lay in the grass and thought for a while, because I had communicated with Yu Qianer, and knew that the bottom of this butterfly valley was full of fierce beasts, and each region had its own overlord, and it was too dangerous to run around.

Besides, I stole a lightning strike wood from someone else, and then said goodbye without saying goodbye, which is really too despicable, it is better to wait here and go back and admit my mistake to him.

Anyway, it gives me peace of mind.

I thought about it for a while, and thought that since I couldn't go back to the tree hole for a while, I might as well go to the baobab grove and play with those ghost macaques.

Anyway, it's an acquaintance.

I rested, then rolled over and walked around the woods towards the macaque's territory.

The area of the ancient tree was huge, and I walked for more than half an hour to reach the vicinity of the baobab forest, but as I approached, I suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood.

What's going on?

As soon as my heart was shocked, people began to be cautious, and walked carefully inside, and saw that there were actually the corpses of more than a dozen ghost macaques in the forest, with severed limbs and legs, and different heads, which were very bloody.

Just when I was surprised, suddenly a figure appeared in front of me, saw me, and shouted happily, "Why are you here?" ”

I looked up and was terrified.
