Chapter 9: The First Day of the Hundred Miles

In the dense woods, the slightest sound of footsteps can be heard. The sound of the leaves rubbing against each other, the sunlight was completely blocked, and it looked a little dark.

Duan Yuan felt that it was so laborious to walk the mountain road at this moment, and squeezed into the bushes blocking in front of him, and then after a period of earth-shaking, he saw a slightly "wide" area again.

A little distressedly, he spit out the green leaves in his mouth, but his hand held the bag firmly.

That was his only food, and if he accidentally dropped it, then Duan Yuan would have no place to cry.

"I'm so tired!" Duan Yuan gasped, and a white mist seemed to come out of his mouth.

Feeling that his hands and feet were weak, Duan Yuan didn't complain. None of this was anything compared to the pain I had endured before. The forest was full of insects, and after a while, Duan Yuan's clothes already had unknown things biting at his skin.

I wanted to squeeze a drop of blood out of it, but unfortunately, the mosquitoes had little to gain except for the skin that had become a little hard from dryness.

And in return, a slender little hand fell from the sky and slapped them to death.

Looking at one or two unknown insects in his hand, Duan Yuan pursed his lips, and then flicked them off, discarding their corpses.

Then Duan Yuan looked around with some distress and exhaustion, if it weren't for the traces left by crossing the bushes just now, Duan Yuan assured that he didn't know the direction, fortunately, from all the way, Duan Yuan carefully identified and found it.

And there are some signs left in it, so as not to have a chance to walk back to the same place after really getting lost.

"Heavenly burial, a hundred .........miles east of Falling Star City," Duan Yuan muttered to himself, then looked at the east, and then did not stop, and continued to take his belongings and move.

The journey of 100 miles is not so easy to complete, more than ten days, and as little as nearly ten days. Of course, this is without obstruction, and here, I dare not say that the road is flat, but the trees all over the mountains are a big obstacle.

And the forest is not as calm as imagined, there are countless dangers, maybe one of you is not careful, and the next step is to see you step on a highly venomous insect snake.

Thinking of this, Duan Yuan couldn't help but shudder.

Goosebumps involuntarily appeared on his body, calming down the fear in his heart, Duan Yuan didn't think much about it.

"Heavenly burial, if I can't grasp this opportunity, then ......"

Duan Yuan didn't continue to think about it, and a trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of his mouth.

And the others he faces are still in front of him, the journey of a hundred miles is not short, if an accident occurs in it, then with his physical strength at the moment, there is only one word, death!

It's not a joke, and it's not something funny.

There are countless dangers in the forest, Duan Yuan knows what kind of world this world is from the "Cultivation Record", and the existence of monks in it does not need to be said.

Known as demon beasts, there are many fierce beasts, and in many ways, this world is their world.

And a human who breaks into it, you can imagine the danger in it, and it is not enough to say that it is nine deaths and one life. And it's still a rookie like Duan Yuan, who has no cultivation at all.

At this moment, Duan Yuan couldn't help but think of the little fox, and those smart eyes appeared in front of him. The little fox was a beast, but Duan Yuan was not afraid.

"I don't know how the little fox is!" Not long after going out, Duan Yuan missed the little fox a little, if the little fox was here, Duan Yuan thought.

Then Duan Yuan shook his head, "The book says that the Heavenly Burial is the most terrifying place in the world, and anyone who goes deep into it may die. If the little fox comes with me, the biggest possibility is to enter the heavenly burial with me, then it will harm the little fox!"

Duan Yuan thought of this, and his eyes darkened again. The sky burial is extremely terrifying, once entered, it is either dead or alive. The probability of surviving is extremely small, and that probability is estimated to be similar to walking on the side of the road and then an artifact falling from the sky.

Duan Yuan couldn't harm the little fox, he was a dying person, and he went to the sky to bury him at this moment to seek a trace of life.

As for whether he would die because of this, Duan Yuan was very open-minded. Anyway, for him, whether he goes to the sky burial or not is death, as there is a saying, life in the world, either die silently or die tragically.

Duan Yuan wanted to fight, even if he really didn't have the skills to return to heaven in the end, then Duan Yuan could proudly say that although I died, I witnessed the magical scenery of the heavenly burial.

Isn't it a good place to bury yourself in it, a mysterious existence, a heavenly burial, a heavenly burial!

Let the heavens be buried for you, this is .........

The noon sun couldn't pierce through the ancient trees, even if it was extremely hot outside, it was a luxury for Duan Yuan.

There was not the slightest wind in this dense forest, so it was okay, in the already cold shade, if there was another strong wind, then Duan Yuan could only accept its baptism except for getting close to his clothes.

"Gollum ......" A strange sound came, making Duan Yuan's face embarrassed, and he reached out and touched his trembling belly.

"I'm so hungry!" Indeed, after a long walk, the physical strength has long been exhausted. If it weren't for the gurgling sound in his stomach at this moment, Duan Yuan would have been completely hungry from exhaustion and covering his nerves.

Reaching into the bag, Duan Yuan couldn't help but think in his heart, fortunately he took the fruit, otherwise it would be fun if he didn't go to the heavenly burial and was starved to death halfway.

After taking a bite, the fruit was no longer half of its body, and Duan Yuan's dry lips were a little excessive, leaving dripping fruit.

After a full stomach, Duan Yuan carefully carried the bag. Then he set out on the journey again.

The first day, it was an unpleasant day. Entering the house at night, Duan Yuan sadly found that he was "homeless", Duan Yuan was really a little panicked at this moment, seeing that the night was gradually falling.

Duan Yuan gritted his teeth and looked at a big tree, which was really big. And all Duan Yuan had to do was to climb this big tree, fortunately, although the tree was very thick, this kind of tree was of the multi-branched type.

After a long trek, Duan Yuan, who was already in tatters, clung to the trunk of the tree after reaching a safe height.

The sound of heavy breathing kept coming out of his mouth, and Duan Yuan was really so tired that he almost lost his breath. Immediately, Duan Yuan felt a warning from his stomach.

Reluctantly, he took out one of the fruits in the bag, and at this moment, looking at the fruits that were lying quietly, Duan Yuan counted them. Then he frowned, and then thought helplessly.

"I ate two fruits today, and fifteen fruits, and I will save a little later. ”

Now Duan Yuan is facing two problems, one of which is the source of food, the bag is so big, and the fruit inside cannot be endless, so once it is exhausted on the way to the heavenly burial, then for Duan Yuan, the body will be gradually consumed.

The final result was to fall, and Duan Yuan was very distressed about it.

However, there is still a solution, there is no shortage of things that can be the most food in the forest, such as Duan Yuan has seen it before. It was a tall fruit tree, with a lot of fruit on it.

It's just that the fruit trees are too tall, and Duan Yuan has nothing to do about it.

In the end, Duan Yuan could only look at the fruit with his eyes, and then in order not to waste time, Duan Yuan left somewhere. If you want to go back at this moment, the gains will definitely outweigh the losses.

Therefore, Duan Yuan could only pray that it would be easy to obtain food sources on the way, otherwise, Duan Yuan looked at the big tree he was holding and swallowed his saliva.

Then you can only eat the bark of the tree, or the dry leaves. Duan Yuan hadn't eaten it before, and at that time, Duan Yuan didn't know about these common senses, so he stupidly picked a leaf on the side of the road, and then put it in his mouth and chewed it.

A bitter and astringent taste came completely, causing Duan Yuan to spit it out in one gulp, and then Duan Yuan decided not to touch the beautiful looking leaves.

I remember telling the little fox at the time, and the little fox couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

Thinking about it, Duan Yuan thought of the little fox again.

Looking at the starry sky, the stars in the sky were reflected in Duan Yuan's gloomy pupils through a slit.

"Little fox, are you alright? You should find out that I'm gone, little fox, my good friend, I hope my departure won't upset you, and I hope we will meet again one day, so let's all pray......"

Duan Yuan muttered to himself, the slight sound was absorbed by the leaves, and it didn't cause any movement.

There was a dead silence all around, and the darkness around made Duan Yuan's body shrink. Leaning on the trunk of the big tree, Duan Yuan didn't know the future path for a while.

Heavenly burial, his goal, but at this moment, Duan Yuan was a little confused.

"Why should I go to the heavenly burial, is it to live?" Duan Yuan muttered to himself, his eyes glazed over, and he was asking himself.

"To live?" At this moment, Duan Yuan felt his pathetic, his little head leaned weakly against the trunk, and he felt the roughness from the trunk. It made his head a little uncomfortable, although the bed at home was also made of wooden planks, but it was smooth and hard.

But the trunk was extremely rough, and the bumps on it made Duan Yuan feel the nails being nailed towards the back of his head.

A desolate atmosphere arose, and for a while, I was distracted. He is an ant in a race against life, and he is inconspicuous in this world.

The darkness completely covered Duan Yuan's small face, not just Duan Yuan's expression at the moment. But it should be sluggish, vaguely in the middle of the Yuan shook his head fiercely.

"No! it's not what I want, my existence, pinning my hopes on life, but I feel like I have more important things to do, and it's really too sentimental to say such meaningless words now, I should let go, heavenly burial, my goal, little fox, I hope we still have a chance to meet, and... That young lady, my blood is .........."

Duan Yuan didn't speak, the darkness around him completely covered everything, and faintly, the pupils of those eyes had been closed.
