Chapter Twenty-Nine: Strange Things

Still not leaving?" Yunchen transformed the blood stain into a spear, pierced the body of the desolate beast, carried it on his shoulder, and said to Zhao Ping, who was already stunned.

"Ah...... Yes...... Got it. Zhao Ping suddenly sobered up and hurriedly caught up with Yunchen, thinking that it would take a lot of trouble, but Yunchen was too unexpected, like a giant, and let the wild beast die.

"Have you left the mark you were asked to leave before?" asked Yunchen as he walked.

"I left a deep mark on those big trees, and I can see it at a glance. Zhao Ping said confidently.

Yunchen nodded in satisfaction, and then let the leveling lead the way, looking for the mark.

Along the way, Zhao Ping talked eloquently, pointed to the mark left behind, and said proudly: "The mark of this special mark, I'm afraid that only a genius like me can think of it." ”

Yunchen couldn't help but glance at the imprint, which looked like a triangular pyramid, but it was very loose, like a few claw marks drawn indiscriminately.

"Is this a triangular pyramid?"

"Good eyesight, this is my natal sign, heaven and earth, only like this. Zhao Ping looked at the imprint, a little sad, but said extremely proudly.

Yunchen couldn't help but look at Zhao Ping's expression, a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "What, there are still some twists and turns?"

"Alas......" Zhao Ping showed a serious expression, and said with some sadness: "That was when I was a child, I met a wild beast, and it was also the wild beast that made my heart palpitate the most......"

"Remember, it was a night more than 10 years ago. My father was not at home, and my house was on the edge of the heavenly city, surrounded by a gloomy forest. Since I was a child, I grew up listening to legends, and I have a lot of treasures for the wild beasts in the ruins. Therefore, my heart longs for the place where mysterious beasts will appear. ”

"So, on a quiet night, a thought suddenly arose to me, but it was this thought that ......"

It was almost impossible to speak, and Zhao Ping's eyes flashed with panic.

Yunchen stepped forward, slapped his shoulder with a strong palm, which was considered comforting.

Zhao Ping softened and continued: "I went to that dense forest that I had never set foot in, and it was extremely dark and made me feel creepy. What's even more terrifying is that suddenly, like lightning, I feel like I'm haunted by the devil. In that short body, there is the power to destroy the world...... I ran and ran as hard as I could...... The trees behind me were destroyed by lightning, and the flying sawdust and the pungent smell of burning were getting closer and closer to me......"

"And then?" Yun Chen frowned slightly, there were no good twists and turns for the things that followed, this was not his idea, but was guided by emotional fluctuations.

In the end, those ordinary, but dark eyes, projected strange emotions. But it would not let me go, and with one claw, it wanted to burn its whole sea of fire and burn me completely......"

"My mother appeared, and in order to save me, she slapped me on the back with one claw, leaving this claw mark, but she saved me from such a dangerous juncture, from such a powerful beast. But from then on, she and I will never say goodbye......"

After speaking, Zhao Ping was a little painful, but he still endured it strongly, and now that he has lost his parents, he can only rely on himself and go on step by step.

Yunchen sympathized with this, understood the meaning of this mark, and was proud of his mother's courage.

In this regard, I couldn't help but sigh, there is no shortage of monks who are so worthy of sympathy in heaven and earth, and there is no shortage of such great mothers.

But in Yunchen's heart, he was even more curious about the mysterious desolate beast, if it was a monk, it would be impossible for lightning to burst out. Because in this ruin, even if it is a demon beast clan, their innate supernatural powers are limited and cannot be urged.

Therefore, it can only be a desolate beast, and they may be able to burst out of thunder and lightning by relying on their special bodies. For example, the Swamp Crocodile can spit poisonous mist from its mouth and spew out a mire that makes it impossible for enemies to resist.

And in this ruins, there must be no shortage of desolate beasts that can swallow thunder and lightning, but such a powerful desolate beast has never been known by the monks, and the cause and effect of this must be very deep.

After a long time, Yunchen and Zhao Ping came to the fixed place, waiting for Jian Ji and Zhang Yan to come over.

Seeing that Zhao Ping's face softened, Yunchen asked, "Then it was the desolate beast that attacked you?"

"Perhaps, it's a legendary beast. Zhao Ping took a deep breath and said with palpitations: "Legend has it that if a desolate beast derives spiritual wisdom, it is called an anti-desolate beast, and it can control the power of the Great Dao. And such a power seems to be available only in the outside world. ”

"It actually involves the power of the Great Dao?" Yunchen was also shocked, the power of the Great Dao was actually the power of the Daoist.

The reason why a monk who has attained the Tao is called an enlightened monk is not only because he has attained the Dao, but also because of his power to control the Dao.

"This power is known only to my ancestors, and they seem to worship it incomparably, and almost all the books that have passed down have mentioned it. Zhao Ping said, and at the same time, for the so-called anti-desolate beast, it was more profound.

This is the trauma of his childhood, no matter how much exaggeration, but the possibility of the desolate beast being the anti-desolate beast is extremely high.

When Yunchen heard these new things, he secretly noted that sometimes, the legend is real.

"Why haven't they arrived yet?" Zhao Ping suddenly wondered.

"What, you've only waited for a while, and you can't wait?" Yunchen placed the corpse of the desolate beast and was closing his eyes to recuperate.

"Brother Yunchen, even if they came by walk, they should have come earlier than us. Zhao Ping retorted: "You know, we are going back, which is equivalent to going back and forth once, plus the time for hunting, it is enough for them to come on a walk." ”

"Perhaps, something interesting happened!" Yunchen had no worries about this, there was a sword to kill, generally speaking, there was no danger.

What's more, this place is remote, there is no strange place to exist, and no monks will come.

"But I don't feel a little uneasy. Zhao Ping was worried.

"Where to start?" Yunchen opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Ping strangely.

"I have known Zhang Yan since I was a child, and we have a tacit understanding, probably because in the past, she used her essence and blood to save me once. If it's dangerous, I'm anxious. ”

"Could it be that they are in danger?" Yun Chen looked around suspiciously, but he couldn't think of any reason in his heart to explain this strange phenomenon.

"Could it be, have you encountered one of the six desolate beasts?" Zhao Ping suddenly raised this possibility, and seemed to feel something.

"How is it possible, didn't you say that the six desolate beasts were driven to the Desolate Beast Mangyuan Garden, how could they appear here?" Yun Chen asked rhetorically.

"I don't know, after all, the whereabouts of the six desolate beasts, in recent years, the monks in the ruins don't know anything. And the wild beast garden, there is no monk to take care of it, there are many wild beasts, the law of the weak and the strong eating is being interpreted, and the environment is harsh, which attracts many wild beasts and is also a paradise for hunters. But this does not rule out that the six wild beasts haunt other places. Zhao Ping explained.

"Be patient, there is little grass, there will be no danger. Yunchen could only persuade like this, and then closed his eyes and recuperated with peace of mind.

He is not a god and can't calculate the current situation of Sword Slaying, but out of belief in his strength, he is still more relieved, so he has patience and waits for his arrival.

"In that case, I'll go and prepare the materials first. "Zhao Ping doesn't want to be idle.

"Be careful, in case of danger, shout, the bigger the better. Yunchen said with his eyes closed.

"Got it!" After speaking, Zhao Ping left.

......

The quiet night, followed by the footsteps of dusk departure, filled every corner of the ruins.

At this moment, Yunchen slowly opened his eyes, Zhao Ping was beside him, drilling wood to make fire, and beside Zhao Ping, there were many unknown flowers and plants, full of fragrance.

"Awake?" Zhao Ping asked without looking back.

"Awake all the time. ”

"But Yan'er and Brother Sword Killer haven't come back yet. Zhao Ping said anxiously.

Yunchen is still like this, the wind is light: "Wait!"

Landing on the ground, Zhao Ping shook his head helplessly, he knew that he had no choice but to follow Yunchen's method, and his method was to wait, which was equivalent to no way.

There was no way, Zhao Ping could only start working, and after a while, with a bang, a fire rose, and then he began to pound the tiger-headed elephant hoof, and stuffed the picked flowers and plants into its abdomen.

These are some good exotic herbs, which are conducive to increasing the taste of the meat, and can also integrate the effect of these exotic herbs into the meat, killing two birds with one stone.

After a long time, as the aroma of meat drifted away, Yunchen and Zhao Ping couldn't wait to start carving up the meat of the wild beast.

The aboriginal monks living in the ruins are naturally strong and fit the rules in the ruins, so it is not a problem to eat the meat of wild beasts.

Such a huge desolate beast naturally has a lot of meat, enough for Yunchen and Zhao Ping to eat for five or six days.

When they were full, there was still a lot of beast meat left, but they couldn't take it away, which made Zhao Ping feel embarrassed.

Yunchen didn't care, there was still some desolate beast meat left in his ring, and it would not be a problem to store more. Immediately, he grabbed the meat of the beast and sucked it into it violently.

Zhao Ping's eyes widened, looking at the ring on Yunchen's finger, and he took a deep breath in his heart: "Could it be that you are also a disciple of the Ping Third Sect?"

"You didn't guess until now?"

"No wonder, I thought you were just an ordinary foreign monk, but I didn't expect you to be a disciple of the Ping San Sect. Zhao Ping said in surprise: "Since the last time, after the disciples of the three sects of Dabo entered the ruins, there was a vision, and after that, I heard my father say that no foreign monks have entered here. ”

"Indeed, entering the ruins from the outside now costs a lot of heaven and earth strange things, and generally no monks will enter again. Yunchen said.

"How can this be?" asked Zhao Ping.

"I don't know. Yunchen shook his head.

Afterwards, the two began to chat, passing the boring night.

"Brother Yunchen, you say...... Will we be enemies in the future?" asked Zhao Ping on a quiet night with his back against the trees, looking up at the starry sky.

Inside the ruins, due to the passing of light, the texture of the particles is not obvious, just like the night outside, a little starlight shining.

Yunchen was also like Zhao Ping, looking at the familiar night sky, he was adrift in the vast ocean, looking at such a starry sky night and night.

And Zhao Ping's words made Yunchen suddenly shake, and a strange feeling rose in his heart, but he pretended to be nothing: "I believe that day will never come." ”

"Why?" Zhao Ping shuddered inexplicably, turned his head, looked at Yunchen, and kept staring at his expression.

"Because, in this world, you and I have no interests. I just want to lead my fellow disciples out of the ruins. And you, will live here, and I am only a passing passerby. Yunchen said sincerely.

"So, you're here with a mission?" Zhao Ping smiled slightly.

"This is the task of the sect, and it is also my responsibility. ”

......

A night has passed, but there has been no trace of Jian Ji and Zhang Yan.

Early in the morning, Zhao Ping went out to look for wood, ready to eat again.

Yunchen still closed his eyes and recuperated until a long time passed, and Zhao Ping never returned.

An hour, the maximum limit, Yunchen suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the quiet surroundings, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

At this point, he was deeply worried: "If the disappearance of Jian Ji and Zhang Yan was an accident, then Zhao Ping's disappearance can only show that there is a mysterious existence in this forest." It could be a beast, or it could be a monk!"

"If that's the case, then what kind of beast will it be, or what kind of monk will it be, will it be the monk who has been following from the beginning, or the mysterious beast lurking in the forest?"

"That's right! Zhao Ping said that he left a mark all the way, why not follow the marker, and see what happens when the sword kills them and rushes away!"

After making up his mind, Yunchen began to look around for markers, wanting to find out the mystery of Jian Ji and Zhang Yan's mysterious disappearance from the road.

After a long time, Yun Chen frowned as he walked, and his inner doubts suddenly surged, and he walked towards the opposite side of the mountain, but along the way, he didn't find any markers left.

Recalling that when he entered the forest, Zhao Ping did stop while walking, and scratched something on the tree, even if it was not a mark, it should have left a trace.

But now, I have looked for the places I have walked through, and I have not walked the places, and I have carefully observed, but I have not found the marks left by Zhao Ping, and there are no traces, the trees are almost unchanged, except for a few trees, there are traces of the collision of wild beasts, and some claw marks appear on the ground, and there is a peculiar smell, like something is burned.

Then, Yunchen followed the smell of burning, walked somewhere, kept digging up the soil, and after a long time, he saw him holding a small piece of charcoal shavings, his expression locked, and he kept looking at the burned thing, thoughtful......

Immediately afterwards, along the way, Yunchen encountered several wild beasts, many wild beasts that he had never seen before, and also came out to fight with them, and finally the two sides were safe and scattered.

Yunchen didn't have the heart to hunt, and the desolate beast retreated with interest after knowing Yunchen's strength.

"Oh no! Could it be that the mark I saw yesterday is also gone?" Yunchen suddenly thought of this possibility, hurriedly turned around, and walked in a familiar direction.

After a long search, in the forest, everywhere, it looks almost the same, and it will be difficult to make out if you don't leave a mark.

After understanding this reason, Yunchen still did not give up, and tried his best to rely on the clues in his memory to find the tree that had been marked before.

And this search is the day has passed, the surroundings are quiet, and the early morning sun casts a soft light.

Yunchen clenched his fists, he had encountered desolate beasts, but he had no chance to find a mark, nor could he find a sword to kill them.

Such a situation has made Yunchen worry a lot, and this kind of thing seems to be just the beginning.

"Are there strange things?" Yunchen frowned slightly, but he didn't believe that such a strange thing would happen in this world.

"In any case, it must be a shadow in the dark, and I dare not show it, which means that there is fear, and if I have this fear, this is my chance!" Yunchen put away his irritability, jumped up, and jumped on top of the tree.

Standing on the highest point, looking out at the vast forest, there were trembling leaves everywhere, perhaps caused by the struggle between wild beasts.

Indeed, there are a few low roars in the distance, and in this ruin, there are wild beasts living in any forest, and where wild beasts live, the laws of nature are inevitably presented.

"It's quiet everywhere, with the strength of the sword, it shouldn't be like this. And I searched all the way, but I didn't find any traces of sword qi left, could there be such a powerful monk?" Yunchen was shocked, even in the face of the three statues, the sword killer should not be restrained.

"Could it be that there will be a desolate beast inside?" Yun Chen was shocked, if it was such a powerful creature, it would not be surprising that the Sword Slayer would encounter its attack.

But if there really are anti-desolate beasts, then it will be more than auspicious to kill them with a sword.

"Also, the same sect of the Ping Three Sects is fighting with the two major gangs, and I can't rush to the scene, and I don't have the skills!" Yunchen remembered why he came to the forest, and he couldn't help but feel bored, and slammed his fist on the trees beside him, causing the trees to tremble and shake off a large number of leaves.

However, the originally inconspicuous trees suddenly burst into a shocking momentum, flying sand and rocks in an instant, and the wind was fierce.

Yunchen glared violently, wanting to dodge away, but the trees around him, the leaves that shook off, turned into thousands of sharp swords, verdant and dripping, with a sharpness that pierced through everything.

When the situation was menacing, Yunchen manifested and became bloodstained, transforming into a big bell to protect his whole body.

After a sonorous sound, the leaves returned to their original ways and fell, and the big tree, with its branches stretched out, kept striking the blood-stained bell.

"Could it be that this tree is also a desolate beast?" Yunchen stood in place, feeling the blow of the branch, but he was intact under the protection of the bloodstain.

"Roar!" A strange roar appeared, and it seemed that a wild beast appeared, pacing towards it.

At this moment, Yunchen suddenly attacked, the blood stained into the original form, and was quickly held in his hand, and then his body was like a whirlwind, and he shook for a while, cutting off all the branches that were about to fall down, and they fell to the ground one after another, and at the same time stepped on his hind feet, away from the big tree beside him.

At this moment, there was a desolate beast, pacing forward, as if it heard a sound, the desolate beast was not big, like an ordinary beast, but its blood-colored eyes contained inexplicable danger.

Now, the three sides towered, the Blood-Eyed Desolate Beast, Yunchen and the mysterious tree, the big tree didn't make any sound, the blood-eyed desolate beast just stared around, sometimes looking at Yunchen, sometimes looking at the big tree.

As for Yunchen, he was blood-stained in his hands, vigilant left and right......
