Chapter 100: Recuperate
Gu Wenyu didn't care about the daily disputes between the two, she looked at the thorns in front of her, frowned, and said, "Why is there only such a short distance......"
Tang Zixuan looked like he had known it for a long time, and he said calmly: "I've tried it before, and it's very soul-consuming, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Gu Wenyu touched his chin and asked again: "Can you try to build two walls to block the thorns from the outside, and there is enough for one person to walk in the middle." ”
"I'll try ......" Tang Zixuan did it again, but it wasn't much easier, the land under the thorn forest was difficult to control, and it was much more difficult to build two high walls than outside.
Gu Wenyu didn't bless him with strengthening skills, and Tang Zixuan struggled to build two two-meter-high earthen walls, about five meters long. It was also toppled by the thorns within 20 seconds.
But the other two were very excited about this result, they had to know the length of five meters, which was already about the same distance as Gu Wenyu helped Honghong after strengthening it.
Although Honghong and Xiaotian didn't know the specific value in between, they also saw hope when they saw that Tang Zixuan could create two earthen walls to block the thorns on both sides. At the very least, this shows that people can go farther.
"Try again. Gu Wenyu said to Tang Zixuan.
Tang Zixuan nodded, drew the gourd in the same way, and built the earthen wall again, this time Gu Wenyu blessed the strengthening skills. Tang Zixuan immediately felt that the land under the thorn forest had become more controllable, and two walls rose from the ground, extending more than ten meters out.
At the same time, the walls were stronger than before, and it took nearly 30 seconds for the Thorn Forest to tear down the earthen walls.
Gu Wenyu and Tang Zixuan looked at each other at the same time, and both of them read the joy in each other's eyes.
"How many times can you build this earthen wall?" Gu Wenyu immediately asked.
"Thirty-one times. Tang Zixuan gave a very accurate number.
Gu Wenyu was happy in her heart, if all her enhancements were added to Tang Zixuan, then Tang Zixuan would be able to take them out of a distance of 190 meters, plus Honghong could also drive a distance of 100 meters without any enhancement, so that there would already be a safe distance of 290 meters, and they would be one step closer to hope.
"How wide is this thorn forest?" asked Gu Wenyu softly.
Tang Zixuan shook his head, "It's hard to say." ”
"Do you want to gamble?" Gu Wenyu asked tentatively.
"Let's recover my soul power first, and then I'll think about it again. Tang Zixuan didn't make a decision so quickly, he was always worried that the distance was not enough. Since the thorns were taller than people, and they could only see a cloud of fog when they climbed the trees, they had no way to accurately guess the width of the thorn forest from the top.
"Good. Gu Wenyu no longer bothered Tang Zixuan to think, the only one among them who knew how to deduce the formation was Tang Zixuan, everyone naturally regarded him as the captain, and these decisive questions were also used to listening to Tang Zixuan's arrangement.
The group returned to the dirt bag to tease and tease, except for Tang Zixuan, who was still bowing his head and muttering, the other three were sitting cross-legged facing each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Gu Wenyu occasionally opened her eyes and wanted to take a break, and when she saw Xiaotian and Honghong's serious faces, coupled with the posture of meditation, she suddenly wanted to laugh a little. If she had done it before, when she didn't know what soul power was, she would have thought that she had joined some strange organization.
Tang Zixuan was not in a hurry to cultivate, he was studying something with the jade pendant.
Gu Wenyu leaned over to Tang Zixuan's side and asked softly, "How is it?
Tang Zixuan continued to fiddle with the jade pendant, "If I can use the soul power in the jade pendant, then our hope of passing through the Thorn Forest will be greatly increased. ”
"Didn't you store a lot of soul power in the jade pendant before?, and then didn't it all absorb it?, do you have a way to use the soul power inside?" Gu Wenyu said puzzled.
"I'm still thinking of a way, if we can, we can store our soul power in the Jade Peili in advance, and when we cross the Thorn Forest, it will become our soul power supply. Although Tang Zixuan did not succeed in research, he was quite confident when he said this, and this should not be far from success.
"Then come on, call me whenever you need my help. Gu Wenyu didn't understand the principle of the jade pendant, she couldn't intervene at all, she could only cheer Tang Zixuan on, and she herself chose to continue cultivating.
Since there was no perfect plan, the group had to camp in front of the thorn forest, at ten o'clock in the evening, Honghong went hunting as usual, Xiaotian went to collect firewood, Gu Wenyu went to find some wild fruits, leaving Tang Zixuan alone to watch the house, who made him the brain of the team.
However, Tang Zixuan's team brain was not studying the method of breaking the formation, he just kept injecting soul power into the jade pendant. Before encountering this thorn forest, Tang Zixuan only injected a little bit of soul power every day, but now it has become a gambler's mentality, hollowing out all the soul power, and injecting nothing into the jade pendant.
Whenever the soul power is exhausted, he will practice cross-kneeled on the spot, and when the soul power recovers, he will inject the soul power into the jade pendant again. The jade pendant was still like a bottomless pit, even if Tang Zixuan was so unreserved that he injected soul power, it never reacted.
Although there was no change in the jade pendant, but in this cycle, Tang Zixuan's body was a little difficult to support, and his face became more and more pale. But Tang Zixuan was like a demon, he didn't listen to persuasion at all, and was completely immersed in his own world.
Gu Wenyu even felt that from the time he left until she came back, Tang Zixuan hadn't even changed his sitting posture, and he didn't know if he would have cramps if he had been sitting like this.
Gu Wenyu handed the small fruit he picked to Tang Zixuan, "Oh, are you thirsty, eat something first, let's take a rest." ”
"Thank you. Tang Zixuan took the wild fruit, his lips were a little chapped, and he really had no resistance in the face of the fruit that Gu Wenyu handed to him.
Gu Wenyu sat down beside Tang Zixuan, took a wild fruit and ate it himself, and said casually: "We have been in this ghost place for so many days, and we are really not in a hurry for this moment, don't be too reluctant." ”
Tang Zixuan shook his head, "One more day of stay is one more day of risk." ”
Of course, Gu Wenyu knew that what Tang Zixuan said was reasonable, but seeing Tang Zixuan overconsuming himself like this, he didn't know if there would be any problems.
"I see that you have been injecting soul power into the jade pendant, can I and Honghong's soul power work?Why don't you let us try?" Gu Wenyu offered to help.
Tang Zixuan smiled and refused directly: "No, I must have my own soul power, the more my soul power, the stronger my control over it will be, if I add your soul power, I'm afraid I won't be able to control it." ”
"Well, then you don't have to be in such a hurry, in case you are exhausted, we really can't get out, I can count on you. Gu Wenyu quipped.
Tang Zixuan suddenly looked at Gu Wenyu, and said with apology in his eyes: "I'm sorry, I'm the one who has caused you trouble." ”
"What are you doing all of a sudden? Gu Wenyu rubbed the goosebumps that didn't exist, and said, "Obviously, I have to follow, what does it have to do with you." ”
Tang Zixuan wanted to say something, but was forcibly interrupted by Gu Wenyu, she was really not used to others talking like this. What's more, it was obvious that she said that she wanted to protect Tang Zixuan, but she didn't help too much, which made her very embarrassed.
