Li Yuan frowned, looking confused, as if he was thinking about some important issue. Before he knew it, his pace slowed down.

Seeing his troubled look, she was amused and angry, and said with relief: "If you can't think of it, forget it." ”

"I seem to remember. Li Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I take these fruits and follow this giant tree to a very terrifying, terrifying place." In that place, if you are not careful, even the real gods and Buddhas will be eaten with no flesh and blood left. And these fruits have miraculous effects that protect me. ”

"Where is it so terrifying?" Yang Wei pursed his lips disdainfully, "Since I came to this strange tree, my old Yang has known that there is no place in this world that is more terrifying than here." ”

Li Yuan glanced at Yang Wei with childlike disdain. He struggled to describe the mysteries of that world: "The horrors here, and the horrors there, are two completely different horrors, you know?...... Well, just look at your stupid look, you know you don't understand...... How can I tell you. It's like a steamed bun and a portrait, two completely different things, you can't compare them at all, you know what I mean?"

Li Yuan tried his best to depict the difference between the two to everyone, but his current intelligence was only seven or eight years old, and he spoke upside down, unable to find any adjectives other than constantly emphasizing "terrifying" and "terrifying". After listening to it for a long time, not only did they not get the slightest explanation, but the confusion in their hearts deepened.

After all, the cannibal is an old man, and one sentence goes straight to the point: "Then you can talk about it." What's the easiest thing in your world to take people's lives?"

His words seemed to tickle Li Yuan's itch, and Li Yuan became a little triumphant, and said, "People there will eat people." And you don't necessarily die after being eaten, maybe you just stay in someone else's belly, and you won't be able to get rid of it for 10,000 years. My father used to say that in this world, 'death' is never the most terrible thing, and there are things that are more terrible than death. ”

She speculated softly, "Is that hell that the Buddhists call it? Why do you want to go to that kind of place? How are you going to get there? Is it possible that you can't commit suicide on top of this giant tree." ”

"What hell is not hell, I Li Yuan has never believed in ghosts and gods, and there is no hell in this world at all. Li Yuan was a little impatient, and said angrily, "So, don't eat my magic fruit in the future, how can I go there if I eat it all." ”

Very beautiful, choked on him. But he was a child after all, and she couldn't do anything with him, so she could only complain softly: "Except for that ugly bastard, who has taken your broken fruit to eat." ”

Later, no matter how Lu Lie teased, Li Yuan stopped talking nonsense with him.

Lu Lie originally wanted to set up his details, but he didn't expect that after this conversation, he would pull out what "flying subordinates" and "cannibalistic hell" would be pulled out, and things became more and more simple and blurry. Listening to what Li Yuan said, the degree of magic can be compared to the adventures encountered on this tree.

For the rest of the journey, the atmosphere of the crowd became dull again, and no one spoke along the way.

The five of them walked for another hour, and they were already so tired that their legs were sore and their feet were weak, and they were sleepy. The ever-bright lights on both sides of the tomb come and go, and the end of the stone staircase is still far away. This is the inside of the giant tree, and you can't see the sunrise and sunset outside. Very beautiful and others are miserable.

The cannibal who was walking in front suddenly stopped, and said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute!" Lu Lie and the others, who followed him for so long, had already developed inertia, and they couldn't brake and almost crashed into him.

"Why, do you see a moving person carving again? or holding a candle with a sly smile on your face?" Among these five people, very beautiful and cannibal are the most wrong, and they sneer at him as soon as they seize the opportunity. Seeing that Lu Lie secretly shook his head again and again, he thought: If Lao Tzu is slaughtered by this angry cannibal one day, you are very beautiful and you must not bear half of the responsibility.

The cannibal didn't bother with the very beautiful. Among these five people, Li Yuan has become a dementia, Yang Wei is not very bright, very beautiful and a thorn. He was only willing to say to Lu Lie: "Super little brother, I found that something is very wrong here. ”

Lu Lie had already felt it faintly from the moment he stepped into this tree hole, but until this moment he didn't dare to admit it: "Old man bird, there are some things, it's better not to break them." If it is not broken, there is still a hope in everyone's hearts, and once it is broken, this last hope will be shattered. ”

The cannibal shook his head: "Husband, if you die, you will die, it's just a big deal to have a handful of loess behind you." But even if I die here today, I must understand that I must not be the unjust ghost of the underworld. His stern gaze swept over Li Yuan, Yang Wei, and very beautiful: "Don't you really feel strange that you have come so far?"

Very beautiful sneered: "What's weird? this weird, that's weird all day. You just retire under the tree, come to the tree. ”

Yang Wei touched the back of his head and said with a stupid smile: "I, Yang Wei, don't see anything strange. ”

"A bunch of idiots. The cannibal cursed in his heart, and he glanced at Lu Lie obliquely, "The super little brother must have seen the clue." It's just that, you can't hide from it, you have to face it sooner or later. Anyway, I don't believe anything about this very beautiful lady, so you can tell everyone about it. ”

Lu Lie lowered his head and was silent for a long time.

Eventually, he raised his head:

"Ladies and gentlemen. Before you went up the tree, did you pay attention to the width of this giant tree? It's about a hundred feet wide. Even if it gets higher and the trunk is thicker, it will never be more than a thousand zhang here. Otherwise, the top is big and the bottom is small, and this area is hollow, and this giant tree would have collapsed long ago.

"However, since we entered the tree hole, we have walked in that dark space for about half an hour, and climbed diagonally up in this tomb for two or three hours, don't you think it is strange? Even the huge Chang'an City should have been visited by us three or four times at this moment. Why, in the belly of this giant tree, we have not yet reached the end?

"I think we're in a different dimension.

"It's useless, let alone walking for a few more hours, and if we go for another ten years, we won't be able to get out. ”
