Chapter 83: The Tree of Life [2]
Qiushui said thoughtfully: "It's very likely that this is the case. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info but can't be sure yet. ”
Listening to this, I also had a lot of thoughts for a while.
Qiushui saw that I was thoughtful, and hurriedly said: "Everything is about to be clear." ”
But seeing him walking around the tree of life, his right hand couldn't help but reach out to a "branch" about two and a half meters high, and with a slight fold of his hand, the "branch" that was only half a meter long was suddenly separated from the "trunk" with a diameter of about half a meter, and the small hole at the cut off was "banging" outwards with a dark red fishy sticky substance.
The viscous substance instantly reminded me of the Nine Dragons Jar, and the smell was almost the same. The nine-tailed fox also felt deeply, and said, "Could it be that this thing is connected to the Nine Dragons Tank?" ”
But for some reason, Qiushui's face became more and more ugly, and he instantly picked up the cut section. What is not optimistic is that Rao is autumn water failed to fully connect, and the fishy sticky substance still seeped out of the joint.
I suddenly felt bad, and immediately went over to hold the severed branch, and said, "Brother, if you want to entangle it, I'll support it first." ”
Qiushui said "um", but his hand did not leave. I turned my face, but I saw that he was already in a state of thought.
At this time, the nine-tailed fox began to rummage through the bag on Qiushui's back, because she was a little shorter, only reaching the root of Qiushui's ears, so she tiptoed and groped.
I saw that she was moving slowly, and hurriedly said, "I said Miss, can you hurry up." ”
Actually, I'm not complaining, but it's because after just a minute or two of supporting the "branch", my hand began to ache a little. If it weren't for the autumn water, I guess my hands would have been scrapped a long time ago.
I don't know what is inside this tree of life, the momentum is very strong, Rao me and Qiushui together, I can already feel the fierce flu inside.
The nine-tailed fox fumbled for a while, and the look on his face began to burn, obviously there was nothing in it that could be used to fix the broken "branch".
I saw that she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and suddenly felt a trace of unbearability in my heart, and hurriedly said: "If you don't have it, forget it, you go to see if there are any switches or anything like that." ”
When the nine-tailed fox heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing, and then walked straight to my side, and shook his hand at the "branch", and the momentum was suddenly much lighter.
"I'll resist it, find the switch thing, or let you go!" She said.
I was a little embarrassed, this is obviously what a boy should do, but I didn't expect her to be a girl on top. Thinking that she was a nine-tailed fox after all, and her hand strength should be greater than mine, after smiling, I didn't think about it so much, and hurriedly let go of my hand and stared at the tree of life.
I counted them carefully and found that the arrangement of the "branches" of the tree of life was actually regular.
It is no more than one meter long, with a total of 7749 strips, which go up counterclockwise from the bottom in an equidistant spiral pattern; is only half a meter, a total of nine hundred and eighty-one, divided into nine rows, equidistant from the bottom vertical to the top; The shortest, only 10 centimeters, a total of five, is equally spaced in a circle in the center of the entire "trunk".
I looked at these layered "branches", and I became even more depressed. Subconsciously looked towards Qiushui and found that he was still staring at the Tree of Life, his eyes were dilated.
It seems that there is no hope of expecting him to break the siege at the moment, after all, Qiushui will automatically filter out everything around him when he thinks about things. So I studied the meaning of these "branches". Of course, because of the urgency of the situation, my mind also seemed to be a wandering horse, and I went to a situation.
After about half a minute, I still couldn't think of a reason, and the nine-tailed fox on the side was anxious: "Enron, do you think of any way?" ”
I muttered, "Not yet, but I think there's something wrong with these branches." ”
"Problems are meant to be solved, not to see. I almost can't hold it anymore, I'll give you another half minute. "The nine-tailed fox is clearly a little difficult to speak, which invisibly adds a lot of pressure to me.
I thought that I couldn't do so much at this time, so I stretched out my hand to the shortest branch at random, and was about to break it off, when the faint voice of autumn water came. "Enron, don't move."
I was so shocked that I almost broke off without controlling my movements. "Brother, what should I do now?"
I knew that it was irresponsible to rely on autumn water, but I had no clue about this "tree of life", and I couldn't even understand its significance.
Qiushui hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "The reason why I broke this branch is why I see how they react." This tree is indeed the same as I imagined, and it is arranged strictly according to the age of the Qiu family. All the places that can be moved represent a layer of meaning. ”
I was confused when I heard it, and waited for the next article in a daze, but I didn't think that Qiushui hadn't spoken again for a long time, so that the nine-tailed fox on the side pouted and urged. "You two don't play dumb riddles, hurry up and find a countermeasure!"
Qiushui glanced at the nine-tailed fox and said lightly: "It's over." ”
I rub. That's it?
If the other party is not Qiushui, I really suspect that he is joking. But Qiushui, obviously, can't be joking.
But what he said was ambiguous, and the nine-tailed fox and I couldn't understand it. I thought he might not know very well, so I took it upon myself to start groping for something else.
It was only three seconds before Qiushui's voice came again. "Enron, stop."
I was suddenly puzzled and hurriedly said, "Brother, do you think of anything again?" ”
Qiushui glanced at the Tree of Life a few times and said, "I understand. After he finished speaking, he quickly rotated one of the middle branches clockwise, followed by a long one, and then he let go of the short branch that he was holding onto.
"That's it."
As soon as his voice fell, the nine-tailed fox also let go of his hand, but the branch was firmly attached to the trunk like Mount Tai.
This made me very puzzled, and I thought that there must be some key, so I looked closely, and found that if the points of the three branches were connected to the line, it happened to be an equilateral triangle.
I wondered, "Brother, is there any trick in these branches spinning?" ”
Qiushui nodded and said, "I thought about it for a long time just now, just to sort out the thoughts here. This must be done using the ancient calculation method of the Qiu Clan, otherwise if you make a mistake, the Tree of Life will explode. ”
I secretly said, this tree looks nothing special, it exploded, but I didn't think that Qiushui continued: "Through the smell of the viscous liquid that seeped out before, I am sure that this tree is connected to the Dark Blood Lotus, that smell is very unique, and I will never forget it after smelling it once." ”
As Qiu Shui spoke, the branches and trunks of the Tree of Life began to shrink violently, until they all merged into a ball, and then gradually evolved into a spherical object about one meter in diameter. At the top and bottom of the ball, a main trunk has been inserted into the wall.
Without waiting for us to wonder, the spherical object supported in the middle burst open in an instant with eight small petals. (To be continued.) )
