Chapter 450: In the Forest
A person's journey is lonely. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li You loves and hates this feeling. Being alone means that there is no burden, and when you encounter danger, you can freely choose to fight or flee for your life. But in the same way, being alone also means that there is no helper, and at the same time there is no one to talk to, as a modern person, the feeling of loneliness is particularly strong, Li You walked along the way, and his mood was very complicated.
Walking in the muddy primeval forest, Li You suddenly remembered for a while that the speed at which the flood waters receded so quickly and where these floods had finally gone
Li You envisioned many possibilities. But these are just speculations, and there is no real evidence to support them. But in general, a world without floods is much better than a world with floods, and walking on land is always more reliable than swimming in the waters to find yin charms.
After walking for about half an hour, Li You finally saw other life besides plants. An unknown insect that builds its nest in mud on trees like ants, and these insects are very large, and the largest ones are catching up with Li You's thumb. In the half-built nest, many larvae are hatching.
Li You didn't relax just because it was an insect. In fact, seeing this insect, Li You's heartbeat accelerated slightly. The sixth sense tells itself that this insect is dangerous. Therefore, Li You stopped and bypassed the unknown bugs. Just as Li You turned around, he saw a few insects spitting liquid towards a nearby tree.
When exposed to the liquid, the entire surface of the tree withers instantly. Immediately, there was a soft "boom" sound, which turned into powder, like a building being blasted, and collapsed, and the impact on the surrounding area can be said to be minimal.
Li You's expression changed drastically. Breathing suddenly stopped. Slowly turning his face, he stared at the insects that were moving towards the pink of the trees.
The insect looks a bit like a bumblebee, but it is very large, the whole body is red, the arthrops seem to be longer than the bumblebee's, there is no crochet needle on the tail, but the mouth has two rows of fine fangs, and the jaw is in place, there is a small meat bag, bulging, which should be the storage sac of that terrible venom.
"This sour bee is so powerful," Li You casually called this insect that looked somewhat similar to a wasp. Seeing that the acid bees mixed the crushed sawdust with muddy water and kneaded them into small mud balls, and carried them to the trunk of the tree to continue to build nests, Li You became extremely speechless.
Feeling the power of the acid insects, Li You secretly transported a layer of true qi to protect the skin around him.
However, the acid bees did not seem to be aware of Li You's existence, and two of them crawled past Li You's feet and also looked familiar. This made Li You breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps because there were no humans in this place, the acid bee directly ignored Li You's existence.
However, Li You exhaled heavily, being targeted by this kind of thing is really not a good thing.
Bypassing the position of the acid bee, Li You was more cautious. The creatures he encountered at the beginning were not good, and Li You had no doubt that this was a dangerous place. Fortunately, so far, the forest, or the entire small world, has not shown much malice. I don't know if it's because the black stone shields his aura well, or if the talisman and kanfu don't care about his existence at all.
But of these two possibilities, it is impossible for Li You to believe the latter. How Gen Fu treated him, an outsider, all the experiences were still a nightmare that lingered in Li You's heart.
The growth rate of the surrounding trees did not stop, Li You visually measured a tree similar to a redwood, from a height of about fifteen meters, within ten minutes to a towering giant tree of more than forty meters, and after being silent for a while, he began to run up again, squinting his eyes for a while, Li You shook his head. There is an argument in biology that organisms that grow too fast have a very short life cycle. Zhuangzi's saying that "the morning fungus does not know the obscurity, and the cockroach does not know the spring and autumn" is to describe these creatures.
"Coo-coo" suddenly heard a sound similar to a bird's call in the silent forest. Li You stopped and looked around, trying to find out where the source of the sound was.
But the source of the sound seems to be some distance away from Li You, and with the shade of the trees, it will be impossible to find it for a while.
"Coo-coo" Li You did not immediately start looking for the animal that made the sound. Instead, he waited quietly. Sure enough, in less than half a minute, the voice sounded again. And this time, Li You was prepared and locked the sound source at once. It's just that what makes Li You feel strange is that he has locked the position of the sounding object, but he doesn't feel the existence of a living thing in that direction.
After discovering this problem, Li You's expression was a little nervous. There aren't too many creatures that can avoid his perception, and at least at the level of strength, it's at least higher than the level of the Hideous God. With such a powerful creature, it was easy to hide his breath in front of Li You, but Li You also knew that such a powerful creature did not need to hide his breath in front of him. Once the aura is hidden, it is either to be wary of other powerful beings, or to have some ulterior motives against him.
Of course, it could also be some weak guy with a black stone on his body. The blackstone is perfect for hiding the aura of power. But no matter what the one who hid the breath was, Li You felt that he should not provoke it easily.
However, the repeated sound of the voice made the curiosity in Li You's heart more and more intense, and he wanted to change direction several times, but in the end he slowed down and slowly moved towards the place where the sound came from.
"Coo-goo-goo-goo" walked less than twenty steps forward, and Li You suddenly heard the sound of the forest one after another. It's as if these creatures are echoing each other. The pitch of each voice is different, some are crisp, some are euphemistic, some are slightly low and vicissitudes, and so on.
A short, sharp sound suddenly sounded beside Li You. The voice came without warning, and Li You's heart suddenly sank, and the bone blade in his hand was about to slash towards the place where the sound came from.
Fortunately, Li You could still recognize in his heart that this voice was not hostile to him, so he stopped moving.
I could hear the sound next to it. However, Li You didn't see any other creatures except for a strange-looking tree. It's hard to describe what the tree looks like, with a trunk so thick that two or three grown men might not be able to wrap it around it. It is also very high, and when you look up, the main trunk should be about ten meters long. There were many withered lines on the trunk of the tree, and it looked like it had grown for countless years, but Li You knew that the plants in this small world were basically grown in the hours he was asleep, and there was no historical background at all.
"This tree will be called" Li You looked at the tree in front of him with a surprised expression and shook his head in disbelief. He had seen many crazy things, although his expression was a little ugly, but in his heart he accepted his own judgment, in the small world of the Talisman, he had seen the entire living forest, and the trees here were similar to the situation encountered in the Talisman world before, and it was also a matter of maybe.
