Chapter 13: The Essence of Wood
readx;
From the mission hall to the north more than ten miles, is faintly heard countless bells, and then closer, is a mountain peak with hundreds of zhang high, this is the bell peak, because the mountain is full of bell trees and named. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The breeze blows, and the leaves on the bell tree make a crisp sound, as if there are countless bells, which is very good. And the task that Lin Yun and Jin Sanpang took over was to cut down a hundred bell trees in a month.
At the foot of the mountain, on the side of a path leading to the mountain, a girl in a purple robe stood under a big tree to enjoy the shade, while another man in purple handed a machete to the person who went up the mountain to cut the tree from time to time.
Following the example of the others, Lin Yun and Jin Sanpang arrived in front of the purple-clothed man, and they both saluted respectfully, Lin Yun said loudly, "I have seen this senior brother, this is the first time that the two of us have come here to accept the mission of the sect. ”
"Oh, then, I'll give each of you a machete. Remember, this machete is only a temporary loan to you, and you must not lose it. The man in purple reminded.
"Yes, junior brother understands. ”
Lin Yun and Jin Sanpang both agreed, took the machete and headed towards the mountain.
As soon as he walked out a few feet away, Jin Sanpang pulled Lin Yun's sleeve and whispered: "Brother Yun, this sect's task does not clearly state the thickness of the bell tree, it is simply calculated by quantity, so it is best to cut down as thin the trunk as possible." Brother Yun, come with me. ”
Jin Sanpang said as he took Lin Yun to turn left and right, walked for a few miles, and stopped when he reached an extremely remote ravine.
"You're quite capable, you can find it in such a remote place. Lin Yun looked at the bell tree in front of him and smiled.
The bell tree that passed by before had to be hugged by one person, but the bell tree here is basically only as thick as a human waist, which is relatively thin.
"I've asked a lot of information before, but it's only now that I use it. The task of the sect is to cut down at least 100 bell trees in a month, and naturally the thinner the better. Jin Sanpang said proudly.
"Let's get started. ”
After Lin Yun finished speaking, he immediately took a deep breath, raised the machete in his hand, exerted all his strength, swung the machete, and slashed down heavily.
Bang!
When!when!
With a slash, the huge bell tree made an even more rapid bell sound, and Lin Yun sat on the ground with a thud under the huge rebound force.
"The grass, my hands are numb, and this tree is too hard. Lin Yun looked at the shallow knife mark left on the trunk of the tree, and couldn't help but scold.
With this knife, he used all his strength, but he didn't even move the bell tree, and he was shocked and sat on the ground, so he was not embarrassed.
"Hahaha, Brother Yun, are you just using brute force, you have to use the vitality in your body to infuse this machete. Jin Sanpang watched Lin Yun sit on the ground and laughed as he was shocked.
"Okay, I'll try again. ”
Lin Yun stared at the bell tree and took a deep breath, raised the knife again, and at the same time, the white silk threads in the dantian in his body surged out, and he thought that the Heavenly Destiny Star continued to emit white qi out, and suddenly the originally dark machete emitted a faint light.
Lin Yun was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly raised his knife to slash down again, and with a snap, the machete cut into the bell tree a few inches, and large pieces of wood chips flew out.
"Hahaha, is that really the case? My contribution point, you are my beloved contribution point, you can't run. Lin Yun burst out laughing, although he was not yet a complete martial arts one, but the strength he showed was a real martial one.
Smack!
Under Lin Yun's frantic slashing, after more than half an hour, there was a loud bang, and the bell tree fell down completely.
"Grass, so fast, I've just cut less than half of it. ”
Jin Sanpang on the side was slightly startled, and couldn't help cursing. He had to take a few breaths every time he slashed, but this Brother Yun actually slashed one after another without resting, and the gap was too big.
"Heavenly Destiny Star?Talent and Magical Powers?I didn't expect that I would have a golden finger in this world, and it was not in vain that I had a headache for ten years. Lin Yun thought in his heart, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
Just when Lin Yun was proud, suddenly a streamer flashed through the dense forest, and suddenly drilled into the bell tree that had just fallen, and in just one breath, the streamer came out of the bell tree again and flew into the distance.
Looking at the bell tree again, the original crisp sound of the bell has completely disappeared, and the verdant branches and leaves have withered all at once.
"What's going on?" Lin Yunyi frowned.
Suddenly, a burst of light flickered, and the jade plate on Lin Yun's waist was buzzing, and it was actually engraved with a shallow "one" word, but the word "one" was very dim.
"Brother Yun, the streamer just now was sent by the deacon under the mountain, and it was used to extract the essence of the bell tree. Only after a hundred trees have been cut down, the word on the jade plate will be completely bright, representing the completion of a sect contribution point. ”
"I see, that's convenient, we don't have to drag the big tree back and forth to hand in the task, we just cut down the tree. Go ahead and try to complete the sect mission on time. Lin Yun said.
"Well, one contribution point is worth ten yuan stones. Jin Sanpang nodded.
Smack!
The two of them silently cut down their bell trees, and every half an hour, a streamer fell here, and in a blink of an eye, it flew away, and when many miscellaneous disciples were dispersed and the moon hung high, the two were still in full swing.
"Huh, how can you cut it down so quickly?" the purple-clothed girl at the foot of the mountain suddenly raised her eyebrows, and looked at a certain place on the bell peak in surprise.
"Senior sister, what's wrong?" the man in purple asked.
"I just found an interesting miscellaneous disciple, who cut down a tree every half an hour, several times faster than others, and he hasn't rested all day. The girl in purple said.
"Maybe it's some kind of pill like Jin Shi Dan, after all, cutting down the bell tree is a chore, and many miscellaneous disciples are trying their best to shorten the cutting time as much as possible, and some people keep cutting around the clock, so that they can free up more time to do other things. The man in purple said.
"Forget it, don't pay attention to this. It's almost summer, and the bell dryad is about to appear, but be careful. The girl in purple said.
"Don't worry, junior sister, I am covered with all kinds of prohibitions on Bell Peak, as soon as the dryad appears, I can immediately know about it, and then capture it. The man in purple said.
At this moment, suddenly a more severe cold wind blew on the bell peak, and the sound of the bell became a little louder, but in just a moment, it returned to its original appearance.
"It's the bell dryad who has appeared, senior brother, go quickly. ”
The purple-clothed girl's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly turned her body up, and disappeared into the dense forest of Ringing Peak in a few jumps.
"If it's just a bell dryad, it's fine, but if it's a more precious bell tree spirit, I can't say I have to fight it once. The man in purple smiled coldly, his feet lightly touched the ground, and his body slid towards the dense forest, like a ghost, and disappeared after a few shakes.
