Chapter 337: Zhuang Zhou Mengdie
Shen Lian was surprised!
"You mean, the World Tree is not a real tree, but a dream of a Nightmare Beast?!"
Lan Jingming smiled and said, "You can say that, but it is not right to say that the World Tree is not real...... Please come with me. ”
As he spoke, Lan Jingming stretched out his hand.
Shen Lian groaned slightly, held the other party's hand, and in the next moment, they turned into two streamers and flew into the center of the Nightmare Beast's eyebrows.
Call!
Shen Lian looked around and found that he and Lan Jingming appeared on a vast plain, with an endless earth, dark red sand, bare, without any animals and plants, as if they had come to the surface of Mars.
"Here?" asked Shen Lian.
Lan Jingming smiled and replied, "This is the dream realm of the Nightmare Beast, which I call 'Distant Dreamland', where the World Tree grows. ”
"World Tree ......" Shen Lian hurriedly raised his eyes to look around, but there was not a single tree in sight, and he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.
Suddenly, Shen Lian stared into the distance, and in the distance, at the end of the horizon, a vague shadow faintly appeared.
Shen Lian hurriedly squinted his eyes, turned on the third farsightedness, and the picture became much clearer all of a sudden, sure enough, there was a tree, and there seemed to be a person lying there under the tree.
At this time, Lan Jingming spoke: "Let's go over." ”
Shen Lian nodded.
Lan Jingming smiled, didn't see him make any movement, his body floated, and then flew forward at the speed of an arrow.
Seeing this, Shen Lian smiled slightly, calmly resisted the wind, and followed behind Lan Jingming unhurriedly.
The closer you get to the horizon, the taller the tree becomes.
Keep climbing up, keep getting thicker!
Twenty miles away, Shen Lian looked up and stared, and he could no longer see the treetops deep into the clouds.
It's huge!
Ten miles further, what Shen Lian saw was no longer a tree, but only a small part of the tree, and he felt like a leopard in a tube.
According to Shen Lian's own judgment, this tree was at least 300,000 meters tall, which was beyond imagination.
Finally came to the tree.
Shen Lian swept his gaze and immediately found that person.
This matter is very strange, in the distance he can see a figure, according to the same proportions of magnification, this person's body must be very large, may be 10,000 meters tall, but when he came close, he found that this person was actually the size of a normal person.
The man was leaning against the tree, leaning slightly, his head bowed, and his face could not be seen clearly.
However, looking at the size of this person, it gave Shen Lian a feeling of where he had seen it, he thought about it, and simply squatted down to look at the other party's face, this look, Shen Lian held his breath for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at Lan Jingming.
Lan Jingming smiled but did not speak.
"What's going on?" Shen Lian was surprised inexplicably, the person under the tree turned out to be the same as Lan Jingming, and the twins were like each other.
Lan Jingming pointed at the man, then at himself, and said with a smile: "He is me, I am him." ”
Shen Lian's brows twisted into a pimple.
Seeing this, Lan Jingming groaned slightly, and sighed: "Back then, I traveled all over the world and came to Taiyuan Mountain, but unfortunately I was lost in the mountain, and the food and water were cut off, just when I was about to faint from hunger, a nightmare beast suddenly passed by, I didn't know it was a nightmare beast, I just thought it was a mountain beast, and wanted to catch it and eat it, but I only approached the nightmare beast, and it angrily released a light to hit me.
After that, I came to a distant dreamland, and I must have been sucked into its dreams by the nightmare beast, and as you can see, there was nothing but a tree, and I could not eat or drink, and I was so hungry that I came back to death, and finally I fell to death by the giant tree.
As soon as I fell asleep, I began to dream, and I dreamed that I had gone outside, and had taken a fat rabbit, and roasted it over the fire, and it was so fragrant that the gravy flowed down, and I feasted and ate to my heart's content.
The amazing thing is that the feeling of being full is very real, and when I am full, I get sleepy and lie down and sleep. As I fell asleep, I dreamed again, that I was in a distant dream, and I woke up leaning against a giant tree. ”
Hearing this, Shen Lian's expression changed, revealing a touch of playfulness.
Lan Jingming smiled, and then continued: "After waking up, I suddenly wasn't hungry, my stomach was full, so I thought about how to get out, I didn't know how to do it, I couldn't find a way out, I tossed down, I was tired and hungry, and I fell asleep again."
After falling asleep, I suddenly woke up outside with a burnt campfire and a pile of bones, clearly rabbit bones that I had gnawed on. Seeing this scene, I was stunned for a moment, puzzled, I was scared, panicked, and just wanted to leave Taiyuan Mountain.
When I was looking for the way, a white tiger suddenly jumped out of the grass, opened its bloody mouth, bit my thigh, and I screamed again and again in pain, and lost my life.
I fainted in pain, but in the next moment, I woke up in a distant dreamland, and the strange thing is that there was a tiger bite on my thigh, which hurt me to death, and I quickly fainted, guess what happened next?"
Shen Lian was speechless and said, "You woke up outside again?"
"That's right! I woke up in the cave of the worldly man, the wound on my thigh already bandaged and herbized. When the worldly master heard about me, he only said that I was a strange person, living in the dreams of the nightmare beast and living in his own dreams.
I didn't seem to understand it, and during the next period of recuperation, that worldly master taught me the Gu Dao and cultivated me to become a Gu master, and I gradually got used to living alternately between the two worlds outside and distant dreams, and I have maintained it until now. ”
Shen Lian knew that Zhuang Zhou's dream of butterflies was transformed into a butterfly in Zhuangzi's dream, or was the butterfly becoming a Zhuangzi in a dream?
Shen Lian asked, "I don't know what my Iron Curtain can trade?"
Lan Jingming replied seriously: "There are two choices, one is that you also leave your true body in the distant dream land and return to the outside with the body of a dream......"
Shen Lian: "What's the benefit of doing this?"
Lan Jingming: "You will spend twice as much time cultivating as others, alternating between the two worlds, which actually means that you don't need to sleep anymore." ”
Shen Lian: "What happens if you die outside?"
Lan Jingming looked embarrassed and said with a smile: "This, in fact, I can't say for sure." "Because he has never died, and he does not dare to die once.
Shen Lian: "You haven't asked someone else to test it?"
Lan Jingming: "Of course I thought about it, but the Nightmare Beast has been sleeping for thousands of years, and it will fall asleep again in a day or two after waking up, and the opportunity is hard to find." ”
Shen Lian smiled dumbly and said, "So, if I agree to this transaction, I will have to wait for the Nightmare Beast to wake up?"
Lan Jingming nodded.
Shen Lian was completely speechless.
Lan Jingming smiled and said, "There is a second choice, it depends on the fate of the king of the northern realm, the World Tree is the divine tree in the dream of the Nightmare Beast, if you can take away one of the branches, the magic is endless." ”
Shen Lian frowned and said, "Has anyone successfully taken it away?"
"This ......" Lan Jingming laughed dryly again.
Shen Lian understood, Dare Lan Jingming lived for more than 10,000 years, all of them lived to dogs, he didn't know much about the Nightmare Beast, and he had nothing to do about the World Tree, so he actually planned to let Shen Lian help him solve the problem.
Thinking of this, Shen Lian was extremely speechless, and completely convinced the old guy Lan Jingming.
Shen Lian looked up at the World Tree, and flew into the air, soaring into the sky......
