Chapter 3 Fighting Pseudo-Wood
The east is faintly white, and the flood finally ceased to be turbulent, calmed down, and gradually receded, but the water under the mountain is still very deep, and it seems that it is impossible to set off this morning.
It wasn't until noon that the flood waters receded considerably, and the muddy ground was already looming in the forest, except for the low-lying waters.
Everyone tried not to stay in the forest, and the dangerous Mosen was more dangerous if he was in it for a few more moments, so he had to barely walk in the mud.
Zhenglian Feng Lun and Aoki shuttled vigorously across the trees. The brothers and sisters of Ling Jiting flew with their swords, and the flying swords under their feet cut through the remnants of the water from time to time, shuttling through the jungle like clouds and water. Bai Xin was wrapped in a pale cyan wind, and the wind seemed to have a life around Bai Xin, and Bai Xin floated in the air, soaring high in the sky effortlessly.
Zhiyou's face was sad, and she didn't know how to keep up with everyone. Tong Jun squatted quietly in front of Zhiyou and said, "Come up, I'll carry you." โ
Zhiyou's cheeks flushed, and a shy look that could not be concealed appeared. Tong Jun waited quietly for Zhiyou, and in the end, Zhiyou had no choice but to lie behind Tong Jun.
Tong Jun picked up Zhiyou on his back and jumped between the branches, Zhiyou had never been so close to other men, he felt hot, his hands were at a loss, and he stiffly held Tong Jun's shoulders.
Tong Jun was at the back of the team, and Old Man Qu deliberately slowed down to guard next to Tong Jun, although Tong Jun was a little struggling, he was not pulled down by the team for much.
Zhiyou lay quietly on Tong Jun's back, although Tong Jun had tried his best to make himself feel relaxed, Zhiyou still felt Tong Jun's breathing gradually becoming rapid.
Zhiyou took the cuff and gently wiped the fine beads of sweat oozing from Tong Jun's forehead, and said softly: "Thank you." โ
"It's fine. Tong Jun didn't squint and said lightly.
Zhenglian glanced back at the two of them, and he was very unhappy that Tong Jun had been helping Zhiyou!
Suddenly, Feng Lun felt that his feet were soft, and the branches he was stepping on were curled! He shouted: "Be careful!"
The trunk covered with branches and leaves began to writhe like tentacles, and Feng Lun's ankle was already entangled as he spoke, and Feng Lun was hung upside down defenselessly, dragging Feng Lun towards the stagnant water that had not completely receded.
Zhenglian's eyes were fast, and the two long claws behind his back were already on his hands, and he rushed towards the tree that swept Feng Lun up, and the knife fell in his hand, and he cut the trunk into pieces cleanly. After being saved, Feng Lun found a place to stay and thanked Zhenglian with a fist.
At this moment, everyone stopped, stayed quietly in place, and listened attentively to every slight movement around them, so quiet that the air was mixed with a few crows, which seemed even more eerie.
Suddenly, Aoki leaped towards Ji Ling, pulled out the sword behind his back and slashed at Ji Ling's back without hesitation! Aoki's sword shone with a faint blue light, and the whole body was crystal clear, as if it was forged from crystal, cutting off the branches behind Ji Ling, leaving a neat incision.
It turned out that the branch behind Ling had grown to his neck, but fortunately, Aoki quickly cut off the branch, otherwise the branch would have wrapped around Ling's neck in the next moment.
"Whoosh!", and the remaining tree trunks shrank into the ground, leaving a hole in the ground about half a foot.
Ji Ling and Ji Ting quickly stood back to back, holding the sword in their right hand and holding the sword trick in their left hand.
Several people looked at each other, not knowing what was happening.
Trees attack people, although in Mosen, everything happens without being strange. However, there is no trace of which trees can be moved around, and at this moment you can only be on full alert and not let the trees take advantage of it!
Old Man Qu winked at each other and said softly, "Everyone gathers together." โ
Because they were in a hurry, the people who were scattered in various places at the moment began to gather together.
Bai Xin was still floating in the sky, staring intently at the movements on the ground, and suddenly Bai Xin gave out a yellow charm from his cuff, and threw it at the trunk at Tong Jun's feet, and at the moment when the charm was attached to the tree, Tong Jun had already jumped away with Zhiyou on his back, Bai Xin's right thumb pinched the ring finger and little finger, the middle finger and index finger straightened, and shouted softly, "Break!" , The spell attached to the tree suddenly exploded, the trunk of the tree trembled, and it began to shrink towards the ground as if flying, and Bai Xin threw out more spells, and the sound of explosions was endless, until the trunk was blown up beyond recognition.
At this point, everyone has assembled, and everyone is standing back to back. Tong Jun has already let go of Zhiyou, although Zhenglian is unwilling, but Zhiyou is still surrounded by everyone. Old Man Qu said, "What is the situation? Trees move, it's really strange!"
Zhenglian frowned and said, "God knows, trees can also attack people, it's really a long insight!"
Feng Lun thought for a while and said, "That, I've been looking for Danling grass for my wife near Mosen, and I heard the villagers in the southern Xinjiang around Mosen mention a strange beast called pseudo-wood. Surviving in the depths of Mosen, its body dives deep into the ground, its tail stands outside the ground, its tail is no different from ordinary trees, and its tail is hidden from real trees, it can stretch for miles in a radius, and it can catch prey by sudden attacks. โ
Zhenglian said: "Then it must be right." Just find its body and kill it. โ
"The question is how to find its body underground?" said Ting worriedly, holding the hilt of her sword tightly.
The white-hearted ghost was eccentric, rolled his eyes, and said, "I have a way, I don't know if it's feasible?"
Old man Qu said: "Young man, but it doesn't hurt to say it. โ
"All of us should be within the range of the pseudo-wood's tail attack at this moment, simply attacking the surrounding real or fake trees at the same time, if the pseudo-wood's tail is attacked, it will inevitably retract its own tail, and the place where all the tails shrink at the same time should be its body. โ
Aoki said, "Well, that's a great idea!"
Although Zhenglian didn't want to admit it, he also felt that this idea was feasible, and said: "Okay, let's all scatter and attack at the same time, Bai Xin, you pay attention to the direction of the shrinkage of the trees in the air!"
Bai Xin nodded, wrapped in the green wind, and gradually rose into the air.
Old Man Qu ordered: "Attack!"
Zhenglian's body is like a dexterous monkey, and his hands with long claws draw out afterimages, tearing all the trees in front of him into pieces; Senior Brother and Sister Ling have pinched their left and right hands into sword tricks, and the flying sword is out of the sheath, and with the control of the two of them, they fly wantonly around their bodies, and everywhere they go, the trees are broken; Aoki let out a soft shout, and the pale cyan long sword in his hand drew out a half-moon-shaped sword qi, without the contact of the sword body, the sword qi has already stirred the surrounding trees into a section; Feng Lun is simple and rude, his fists are like two big grinding plates, his arm strength is thousand, and the trees that his fists touch are all shattered๏ผ
Old man Qu pinched the trick in his left hand, and his right hand was already holding the black giant sword that Tong Jun was carrying, the sword was two and a half feet long, half a foot wide, and the whole body was black, and a golden wire extended from the hilt of the sword to one-third of the sword body, the gold wire was wrapped around a faint blue gem, the black sword weighed a hundred catties, but it was as light as nothing in the hands of the old man Qu! The old man Qu shuttled between the trees, and every sword went down with an explosion, cutting down all the surrounding trees!
Tong Jun said to Zhiyou behind him: "Follow me, pay attention to safety!" After that, his hands were clawed, tearing the trees left and right as if he had entered a no-man's land, and Zhiyou followed closely behind Tong Jun, trying not to cause trouble to Tong Jun.
Bai Xin was still floating quietly in the air, the green dragon was lying on his shoulder, his clothes were gently fluttering in the breeze around him, everyone showed their skills, the branches and leaves of the trees on the ground and the tail of the pseudo-wood were mixed together, and they were falling chaotically, Bai Xin watched every move on the ground intently, and suddenly found that the tail of the pseudo-wood that was only seen in the real trees, and the broken tail that remained after being attacked was retracted into the dirt and gathered towards a point. Bai Xin descended sideways, quickly followed the convex hull moving on the ground, tracked to the gathering point of the convex hull, Bai Xin's hands were sealed, and after landing, he quickly pressed his hands on the ground, with Bai Xin as the center around ten meters, a large circular array appeared on the ground, and a blue and white fine light appeared on the ground, drawing a large array of formations, and the blue light disappeared instantly after the blue light skyrocketed, "Bondage, Ice Prisoner!" Bai Xin thought. The cold air on the ground caused a thin layer of ice to form on the stumps of the surrounding trees, and the entire ground was immediately frozen.
Bai Xin clearly felt the vibration coming from the ground, and something was struggling! He shouted, "Hurry! I can't control it for long!"
Feng Lun arrived, and his right fist gathered all his strength to hammer towards the ground, and the ground that had been frozen and solid was cracked, and the stones jumped!
An angry roar came, and a brown beast came out of the ground, with a face like a jackal but no eyes, a huge mouth with fangs, claws like knives, and a bloody mouth, very ugly. The pseudo-wooden body was on the ground, but the tail was still deep in the earth. was roaring angrily and rushing towards Bai Xin, Bai Xin dodged and flew into the air again, and the frozen pseudo-wood action had not fully recovered, and the broken ice chips on his body were shocked and splashed everywhere. The surrounding trees began to shake, and it turned out that these were all pseudo-wooden tails, entwined and attacked towards Bai Xin and Feng Lun.
At this moment, everyone also arrived, and the ability of the pseudo-wood to attack head-on was of course inferior to these people, and most of the tail was damaged in a short time, and the body was also cut out by a few flying swords. Pseudo-Mu roared angrily and planned to plunge into the soil to dodge, but who knew that Bai Xin had added a layer of ice to the ground again, and at this moment the ground had hardened into the solid stone, and Pseudo-Mu saw that he couldn't get into the soil, so he put away his swinging tail and rushed towards Zhiyou, who was so frightened that he squatted on the ground. Tong Jun walked in front of Zhiyou with his hands on his chest, and the strange beast seemed to smell the breath of danger, jumped into the sky, and all the tails in the ground were cut off, and fled towards the depths of the jungle with a roar.
Zhenglian got up to chase, but was stopped by Old Man Qu and said: "It is so seriously injured, it shouldn't come back for the time being, let's leave here quickly, we don't have to waste our physical strength in a fight, and we mainly cross the forest!"
Zhenglian nodded, and everyone hurriedly left this messy battlefield to prevent other strange beasts from smelling the smell of blood.
The few men did not stay, and headed deeper into the jungle, leaving the place where they had just fought far behind.
Tong Jun squatted down and asked Zhiyou, "Are you okay?"
Zhiyou may have been frightened and shook her head slightly. Zhenglian and they had already left, Tong Jun hurriedly carried Zhiyou on his back, and Old Man Qu tried to catch up with the others.
