Chapter 478: The Mechanism in the Tree
"Did you get the key?" Su Beizhi turned his head and asked Xi Zishi again.
Xi Zishi nodded: "I got it." Xiao Wuye concentrated on the decisive battle, and was really negligent about this matter. ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a shiny golden key from his waist. The slender handle is unique and looks unusual.
Su Bezhi nodded, and stepped forward with the two of them to look for it.
The trunk of the tree appears to be hidden by no mechanism. The old bark swayed in the wind like a broken candle. The three of them circled the bark and examined it, but were still unaware.
"Hey, how did Xiao Wuye get done at that time?" Xi Zishi was a little impatient and asked.
Su Beizhi scratched his head: "At that time, he just took the key and stuck it in the trunk...... Because I didn't look very closely if I wasn't discovered. ”
Xi Zishi bit his lip and refocused his gaze on the tree in front of him.
Tried tapping the bark with the key a few times, but again to no avail. The three of them racked their brains, but they couldn't find the key to cracking it, and they couldn't help but feel anxious.
The fallen leaves in the treetops "click" down with the wind. Subeshi patted a leaf that fell overhead, bowed his head and pondered.
"You are the Holy Envoy of the Nine Shadows, and you don't know what tricks your boss likes to play?" Xiao Wan Hu shouted.
Xi Zishi's face was very solemn, and he shook his head cautiously.
It may be possible to defeat the tree directly, but I'm afraid of destroying the mechanism inside. But now that there is no breach, what should they do?
Ah Tian is already close at hand. However, they can only stand outside stupidly, obviously holding the key, but they can't find the keyhole - how ridiculous?
Distraught, Xi Zishi raised his head and took a deep breath, his gaze also falling into a daze.
Su Bezhi wanted to use the sword several times. But he also has the same concerns, after all, helping others to the end, if it is self-defeating, he will never be able to bear this responsibility.
Xiao Wanhu is a long sigh. Seeing the stratus clouds rolling in the sky, it seemed as if it was about to rain in the blink of an eye; In the distance, there was thunder on one side, and white smoke on the other, black and white, as if the sky and the earth had lost their color.
Just when he was at a loss, suddenly, he heard a surprised voice from Xi Zishi:
"Look...... The fallen leaves just now are exactly the same. ”
Su Beizhi and Xiao Wanhu thought he was stupid for a moment: Now that he has not been rescued, who has the leisure to watch the fallen leaves of Rausch?
However, after thinking about it again, the two suddenly turned their heads together.
Xi Zishi had already pinched a few yellowed fallen leaves in his hand and showed them to the two of them.
Su Beizhi and Xiao Wanhu looked down at the fallen leaves, and after observing them for a while, they exclaimed.
Every fallen leaf in your hand, whether it is the veins, textures, stems, or outlines, is exactly like a copy, nothing else. Although there are signs of cracking and gnawing by insects, other than that, they are indeed the same.
"There is no such thing as a miracle in the world for no reason...... "Su Bezhi bowed his head and muttered.
Xiao Wanhu looked up and wanted to find a few more pieces to confirm. The wind kept blowing, and the fallen leaves flew down, and soon he grabbed a handful and carefully compared them one by one.
But it didn't take long for him to give up. Because you don't even need to compare them, just by looking at them, you can see that these leaves are all surprisingly consistent.
"How so? The tree has a cat. Xiao Wanhu raised his head and made an important speech.
Creek purple stone and subeld branch confirm the head of the jaw. It's just that why this is so, they need an explanation.
And this explanation is undoubtedly the breaking point of the current predicament.
"Trees are man-made?" Xiao Wanhu touched his chin and thought carefully.
"No, no, no." Su Bezhi broke off a piece of bark and shook it, "This is all real, there is no trace of man-made." If you want me to say...... Someone has placed a secret prohibition on this tree. ”
A word to wake up the dreamer. Xi Zishi immediately understood, and he hurriedly released his coercion to find out the reality hidden in the trunk of the tree.
Sure enough. Just as the two of them were waiting for him to tell the result, suddenly, his coercion seemed to be resisted by the heat flow in the trunk of the tree, and the air flow that bounced out swept across, and even forced Xi Zishi back a few steps at once.
Su Beizhi and Xiao Wanhu hurriedly stepped forward and pushed him with one palm.
Xi Zishi was shocked, his face was still a little surprised, and he pressed one hand on his chest and gasped. Looking at the tree trunk in front of him, he understood what was going on with all this.
"It's the ghost howling Changyuan, the True Yuan Imprisonment that he personally laid on the tree." Fine sweat oozed from his face.
Su Bezhi raised his head and sighed silently: "...... Sure enough, that's right. ”
The foliage is similar, and it is not possible to do it by natural force. Obviously, this is a man-made intervention of true qi, in order to hide the location of the mechanism, it is deliberately wrapped layer by layer with a deep true element, so as not to be easily detected.
Trees are originally living beings, and they are fed by external true elements, and their growth will naturally change subtly. And the perverse situation of the leaves being completely consistent is undoubtedly the anomaly of the intervention of the true element.
The supply of the true element is more stable than the sun, rain and dew, so the trees are under this and are no longer interfered with by nature. However, the leaves are not nurtured by nature, and the growth of the leaves will no longer change, and gradually evolve into the same appearance by relying on a stable supply of true elements.
"So, what now?" Xiao Wanhu asked more practical questions.
After all, it is the true element of the Ghost Howling Abyss, and it must be very difficult to crack it. Thinking about it, every time Xiao Wuye came, he carried a wisp of true yuan given by Ghost Howling Changyuan, assimilating the true yuan sent on the trees, and it was naturally effortless to open the mechanism.
However, they do not have such conditions now.
"That'...... For today's plan, I'm afraid there is only ......" Su Beizhi frowned.
"Break the ban with brute force." The purple stone of the stream is slowly connected.
Xiao Wanhu was stunned for a moment, and then confirmed: "Is it feasible?" You're making sure you don't break the mechanism? ”
"You also saw the rebound just now." Su Beizhi smiled lightly, "The true qi of the ghost howling Changyuan is not a joke. If you want to break through, I'm afraid you have to combine the three of us. ”
Xiao Wanhu is still not sure. He turned his head to look at Xi Zishi again, after all, it was about his life plan.
Unexpectedly, Xi Zishi shook his head slowly.
"I just hope you two can protect the rocks over there." Xi Zishi lowered his eyebrows and groaned, "The power of rebound, you have also seen it." The strength required to break through is strong, and if Ah Tian is shocked, it will not be good. ”
"Huh?" The faces of the two of them became very intriguing at the same time.
It was getting dark again. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, blowing the leaves all over the ground and dancing in the air.
"But can you break the ban yourself?" Su Bezhi is very unconvinced.
"Breaking the ban is one thing, not damaging the mechanism is the other. The power of the three is not easy to control, and I am more confident myself. ”
