While the three of them were talking, suddenly the ground under their feet made a loud rumbling sound, and the entire bronze wall shook violently as if it were exploding. Countless passers-by who had been walking were like facing a great enemy, and they squatted down one after another, clinging to everything around them. Lu Lie was terrified in his heart, and said in his heart, how could Yao's old immortal not disappear like this, could it be that he was catching up again? He subconsciously looked in the direction under his feet, and between the clouds and mist, he couldn't see anything clearly.

And Mu Xiaobai and Tang Yan beside him also squatted down together in the same way as the people around them, but their demeanor was natural and there was no fear at all. Seeing Lu Lie's gaffe like this, Mu Xiaobai couldn't help but laugh again: "Nuo, you are such a big man, you are so timid, and your courage is not as good as that of a girl like me." ”

Lu Lie's face changed. Tang Yan patted him on the shoulder and said with relief: "You are new here, it's normal not to know...... Every day, the mystics of our tree kingdom pave bronze on the high walls of the giant trees, measured in months. Ten kilometers in January. Once the distance is enough, our entire tree kingdom will slowly rise along the new bronze wall.

"And today, it is the time for the Tree Nation to rise. ”

Lu Lie's face turned pale and said, "The entire country here is rising with this bronze wall?"

Tang Yan laughed and said, "Yes, the whole country. ”

The shaking around him became farther and farther away, and Lu Lie felt that he had turned into an ant, in the realm where giants walked. He suppressed the panic in his heart and looked up, and he saw that the sky above him was getting closer and closer, and countless stars hidden in the light of the sun that were invisible during the day were faintly emerging. At the top of the firmament is endless nothingness.

After about half an hour, the shaking finally stopped.

The crowd around them slowly rose from the ground, the pawns who were selling continued to sell, the farmers who watered continued to water, the women hurried home with their children in their arms, and the butchers patted the meat in their hands and argued with the customers about something. It's as if nothing has happened.

The people here have become accustomed to the visions that arise when the kingdom rises.

In the course of these long years, the Tree Nation has risen thousands of times, and even they themselves may not know where they are now in the Great Tree. Everyone in this country of trees was born and grew up, and they are accustomed to constantly climbing upwards and constantly exploring this infinite world of giant trees. Maybe one day, when they reach the top of the giant tree, they will crumble because they have lost their purpose and their peaceful life.

Lu Lie couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Countless clouds and mist, like strange creatures with life, slowly twisted their abominable bodies and drifted across the blue sky.

What is hidden on top of that?

Just as Lu Lie lowered his head and pondered, two slender men dressed in gray and wearing veils walked over and nodded to them, "Elder Tang." The newly brought adventurer, the patriarch and the other elders were very interested, and specially ordered them to go to the Beiqing Palace to meet them. I also hope that Elder Tang will let him go. ”

"The patriarch's order to let an adventurer go to the Beiqing Palace?" Tang Yan frowned, and the wrinkles on his forehead wrinkled one by one. But he was soon relieved, "That's fine." The country on the tree rescues so many adventurers every year, but you are the first one who is lucky enough to enter the Beiqing Palace, so you say that you have fate. Go ahead. ”

After obtaining Tang Yan's consent, the two gray-clothed masked men walked up to Lu Lie and grabbed him one after the other. The words were also polite, and he made a gesture of invitation and pointed him in a direction.

Lu Lie was still in the clouds, that is, he didn't know what the Great Elder looked like, and he didn't know what the Beiqing Palace was. Since Tang Yan has spoken, he will go to the last time. But he had barely taken two steps before he could no longer walk. I felt that Mu Xiaobai's little hand behind him tightly pulled the corner of his clothes. Seeing him stop, Mu Xiaobai stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear seriously: "Lu Lie, you have to be careful." Although the vast majority of the inhabitants of our Tree Nation are good people who have no quarrel with the world, they do not include the patriarchs...... This person is very dangerous, after entering the Beiqing Palace, you must be smart, otherwise you will ......"

She shifted her mouth, but the rest of the words were unspoken.

The two gray-clothed men sent by the Beiqing Palace to take him to see the patriarch just looked indifferently at Mu Xiaobai and grabbed Lu Lie, and when she said, "The patriarch is a dangerous person", the two gray-clothed people just looked at Mu Xiaobai indifferently, and the eyes exposed on the mask were still extremely indifferent, neither showing surprise nor anger.

It was as if what Mu Xiaobai said was a natural thing.

Seeing such a small Lori discussing this issue with herself so seriously, Lu Lie was amused and speechless. He half-squatted down, just about to pat Mu Xiaobai's head. The two looked at each other, and suddenly, Lu Lie saw deep worry in Mu Xiaobai's bright eyes. That worry has never been faked, and it is the most genuine worry about a little girl who has not known her for a few days.

For some reason, Lu Lie's heart was inexplicably filled with a faint sourness.

He quietly withdrew his half-empty hand, nodded to Mu Xiaobai solemnly, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I will definitely deal with it carefully." ”

"Really?"

"Really. Absolutely true. ”

Mu Xiaobai bowed his head very reluctantly and said, "That...... Okay. There you go. ”

Under the leadership of the two gray-clothed men, Lu Lie walked to the end of the Qifu No. 1 Continent. On the way there, Lu Lie suddenly remembered why his heart was suddenly slightly sour.

He had seen such worried eyes before.

In Qiqi's dream, when his mother looked at him.

......

Under the leadership of the two gray-clothed men, Lu Lie was forced to go faster and faster, and went further and further away. Everything in front of me turned gray, and the continent above the sky seemed to rise as if a dirty mist. At the end of the fog, the two gray-clothed men suddenly stopped: "Come to the boat." Boat to the North Green Palace. ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... Ahem......" A burst of laughter like nails scraping iron, accompanied by a low cough, came from the direction of a thick gray cloud.

The three of them jumped into an iron ship that was much larger than before.

On the bow of the ship sat a thin figure like a piece of paper. "The ship is up, and the guest officers are seated. If you fall here, you won't fall into the abyss of 100,000 yuan...... Ahem, ahem, hey, hey, hey, hey. ”

The figure slowly pulled the lock, turned his head, and it was a dark gray old man's face that was almost indistinguishable from a skeleton.
