Chapter 18: Descending the Mountain
The wolves suddenly appeared, and suddenly retreated, and even the dead wolves were taken away.
If it weren't for the faint smell of blood still remaining in the air, and the fruit of the Suluo tree on Liang Zi's forehead, which was as big as a fist and still emitted green light, Nangong would have thought that he was dazzled.
That fruit is anything but extraordinary!
The only explanation is that the Sara Tree Elves!
Nangong jumped off the ground, picked up Liang Zi, picked up the fruit and looked at it for a while, and then looked at the huge Suluo tree beside him, with a look of expectation in his eyes.
"Junior, Nangong Shu, Liang Zi, ask to see the seniors of the tree elves!
As soon as the words fell, the fruit of the sora tree in his hand shook slightly, fell to the ground, and burrowed into the soil. Then it took root and sprouted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just a few breaths, it had grown into a ...... that was more than a foot tall Treants!
There was a sparse clump of leaves growing on the top of the head, and there was a face under the leaves, a wooden face, and there was no expression to be seen. Its hands are two tendrils and vines, without fingers or toes, and its legs are connected to the earth.
It looks like a small Solo tree in the shape of a human.
Nangong and the others were dumbfounded: This is the tree elf? Doesn't it mean that the elf clan is all handsome and beautiful? This is completely a tree man, right?
The treants, of course, didn't know what was going on in their hearts, shook their heads, opened their eyes, and woke up. It looked down at the life horn in Nangong's hand, then at Liang Zi, and then said something very strange: "The breath of the elf...... It's been a long time since I've seen an elf......"
Its voice was old, and it didn't have any highs and lows, and it sounded weird. As he spoke, he stretched out his "finger" and gently circled the wound on Liang Zi's arm, and the green light flashed, and the wound quickly healed as before.
Nangong was slightly stunned, ...... elves?
He looked down at the Life Horn in his hand, and thought to himself that this should be what it said, right? Aunt Liang said that it was made of the leaves of the World Tree, from the elven race.
He didn't think too much about it, and greeted him respectfully: "Hello, dear tree elf, thank you for your rescue!"
"You're welcome, human boy!"
The Treant replied, "You have the leaves of the World Tree and are friends of Manshar!"
Is that its name?
Nangong didn't dare to slack off, went straight to the point, and quickly said his intentions: "We are from Dragon City, three hundred miles away in the south, we have encountered difficulties, and we want to ask our seniors to help." ”
"Okay......
The voice of the tree man Manger was very deep: "Then let's go......"
Nangong was stunned again, and glanced at Liang Zi: It's that simple?
As if seeing through the doubts in their hearts, the tree man said again, "I recognize you...... Girlish...... You have the breath of a master in you...... It's been a long time since I've seen the owner...... Let's go, take me to the master......"
It looked at Liang Zi, and the corners of its mouth suddenly cracked, is it laughing?
Master?
Nangong and the others looked at each other, completely unaware of what it meant. Just as I was about to ask, the Manson in front of me had already begun to change. Its branches and leaves quickly retracted, as if going back in time, and in a few breaths, it was back to the original fruit.
One qiē changed too fast, and Nangong couldn't react at all.
Picking up the seeds on the ground, Liang Zi said, "Let's go, let's go back." ”
Nangong opened his mouth and stammered: "This ...... This is going back?"
Liang Zi asked rhetorically, "The tree spirits have all been found, why don't you go back?"
Nangong was a little confused, thinking about this journey, day and night, cutting white snakes, climbing ladders, retreating wolves, climbing mountains and wading in the water, and even having a good night's sleep, he finally met the tree man, and it was over in just two words?
Liang Zi ignored what he was thinking, took the seed and walked back, saying as he walked: "If you have any questions, just go back and ask my mother." I always feel that there is a great relationship between my mother and this tree man!"
"That's all it can be!" Nangong sighed lightly and followed.
The two of them followed the path they had come from, through the dense forest, to the exit of the ladder. Nangong suddenly stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the magnificent waves under the mountain, and a kind of pride like "seeing all the mountains at a glance" arose.
"What's wrong?" asked Liang Zi.
At this time, it was late at night, the stars were brilliant, the mountains were misty, Nangong looked at the starlight in the sky, and then looked at the flowing clouds under his feet and the fields under the flowing clouds, and suddenly sighed: "I was anxious when I came, I didn't have time to appreciate it, but now I found it when I came back...... It's really beautiful!"
Liang Zi's eyes shone in the starlight, followed his gaze, blinked, smiled but didn't speak.
"In the future, if I have the opportunity, I must go out for a walk, see this beautiful world, look at the mountains, look at the water, and see the alien races that are extinct on the mainland. I want to put them all under my brush, and the scroll is ......," Nangong muttered to himself.
After half a ring, he made a solemn decision: "Well, it's decided! After rescuing my father and mother and solving the affairs of the Long family, I will set off!"
"Okay, I'll go with you!" Liang Ziyan smiled and said seriously. With that, she jumped into the ladder first.
The way down the mountain was always faster than the way up, and the two of them soon came to the pavilion where the teleportation array was depicted.
Liang Zi sat down and said, "I'm tired, let's rest first." In fact, she is not tired, she is mainly worried about Nangong, his physique is far inferior to her, and she has been tired to the extreme in the past few days. Now that I have gone down the mountain overnight, there is a crack between the stone steps of the ladder, and if one accidentally falls down, it will be doomed.
Nangong answered, sat down beside her, leaned against the stone pillar and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Suddenly, Liang Zi said softly: "Huh, Nangong, look!"
When Nangong opened his eyes, he saw that the teleportation array, which should have been invalid for many years, suddenly changed, and the six-pointed star lines on the ground suddenly lit up.
The light was very weak, and at first he thought it was his own dazzle. But soon, the light became more intense, and the mystical symbols on it even became a little dazzling, and the entire six-pointed star array turned into a thick pillar of light.
In the pillar of light, a powerful aura fluctuation was brewing, but it was blocked by the top of the pavilion. The clouds overhead seemed to be attracted, forming a huge whirlpool, and the sound of lightning rushing in the whirlpool was incessant.
Suddenly, there was a "boom", and the roof of the pavilion was split into a big hole by a thick lightning bolt, and the stone chips fell on the six-pointed star, and before they fell to the ground, they quickly disappeared into the six-pointed star.
The pillar of light rose into the sky and connected the vortex, and the current did not know whether it came from the six-pointed star or the cloud vortex in the sky, connecting the two.
Nangong and the others stood on the periphery of the six-pointed star, but they were calm, as if they were in another world.
"The aura of heaven and earth fluctuates so violently!
Liang Zi raised his hand high, felt the violent heaven and earth aura around him, and raised his head and said.
After speaking, she approached curiously, stretched out her hand as if she wanted to touch the pillar of light, but suddenly a thick electric current suddenly burst out, like a tentacle with teeth and claws!
"Be careful!"
Nangong shouted, flew over and pushed violently, pushing Liang Zi aside, but he himself was hit by the current.
The electric current tugged at his body, quickly retracting into the teleportation array.
This time it immediately caused a chain reaction!
The surrounding heaven and earth aura, together with the electricity in the six-pointed star, seemed to have found an outlet for catharsis, and gathered towards Nangong in one go, surrounding Nangong's body, forming a larger whirlpool.
And Nangong is the eye of this tornado!
But Nangong is a magician, and he is still a congenital magician...... Whether congenital or acquired, the bodies of the magicians have a common characteristic: they cannot absorb aura!
The heaven and earth aura in the teleportation array surrounded Nangong's body, but it couldn't penetrate his body no matter what, so it tore at Nangong's skin and spun rapidly! It turned faster and faster, forming a storm-tornado storm composed of spiritual energy.
In the end, the tornado suddenly gathered, as if it had been forcibly compressed by some powerful force, and gathered together, after compressing to the limit......
There was a soft "pop", like the sound of a soap bubble bursting......
A powerful air flow spread silently, lifting Liang Zi into the air, turning over and falling to the ground.
It came and went quickly, and before Liang Zi could fall to the ground, this air flow disappeared without a trace, and the light in the teleportation array also disappeared together, as if it had never appeared.
There is only a mess all around, witnessing what happened in the past.
"Nangong!"
Liang Zi quickly got up and ran towards Nangong with a shout.
However, at this time, Nangong couldn't hear her words anymore!
At this time, Nangong only felt a heart-rending pain, as if he was in a huge grinding disc, and even his soul was about to be ground into powder. Then, there was a loud "boom" in his head, and before he could snort, he fainted!
