Volume 1 Flying in the Sky Chapter 35 Invalid
......
The two continued to explore the cave. After walking for a while, Gu Xin was curious, "Like the No. 13 stone tablet I saw before, how long will it take to meet the other one?" ”
Kong Ling shook his head, "I don't know, I only know that there are a total of two hundred tablets in the Sword Academy." My strength can pick verdant vines on the periphery of the core area, so I only know the path of a dozen stone monuments on the periphery. ”
"We're far away now, and it's not clear where we are, just keep walking and meet the next stone monument."
Only then did Gu Xin understand Kong Ling's method of identifying the direction in the cave, he memorized the approximate map around a dozen stone tablets, and then walked around the area covered by more than a dozen stone tablets, picking green vines, in the process, he slowly ran into a dozen stone tablets by luck, and he could know where he was. Coupled with the paper that constantly marks the fork in the road in his hand, if he is unlucky and can't hit the stele, he can also follow the marks on the paper and go back the same way!
"It's a pretty good idea." Gu Xin thought secretly, at first, he thought that Kong Ling was purely memorized by his brain, and he had entered the cave several times, and he had already memorized all the routes he had taken.
After a long time, the two found more verdant vines. A flat passage appeared in front of me, and at the end of the large hanging wall, overgrown with verdant vines!
Kong Ling initially thought that he had seen it wrong, so he threw out the golden light stone in his hand, and the golden light stone was scattered around, only to see hundreds of green vines growing quietly, and he was completely excited.
"This ...... Here, at least dozens of verdant vines have grown sap! Kong Ling yelled excitedly, left Gu Xin, and ran over. The concentrated growth of the green vine brought a richer sweet and greasy toxin, and the smell made Kong pause, but as soon as he gritted his teeth, he still pulled out a knife and threw himself into the green vine, frantically cutting a section with juice.
Gu Xin followed behind Kong Ling, hundreds of verdant vines, and at least a third of them had juice, and the toxins emitted by the collection were already very strong, finally making Gu Xin feel a little dizzy. The smell of green vine toxins is sweet and greasy, and after smelling for a long time, there is a faint fishy smell.
"You be careful."
"Gu Xin, don't come here! It's too full of toxins here! The Yuan Force on Kong Ling's body visibly rushed out of the surface of his body, wrapping his whole person and repelling the poisonous gas.
Gu Xin stood beside him, watching Kong Ling climb up the hanging wall like a monkey, dragging the emerald green vines to cut.
He swept his gaze around, the terrain was wide, and the view was good. Gu Xin was vigilant, wanting to see if the person who had been following him and shouting his name behind his back would show his figure in this spacious terrain.
Gu Xin looked around, his eyes touched the rock of the cave, but unfortunately the light of the golden light stone was too dim, even if Kong Ling scattered them, it would only illuminate the surrounding three or four meters, and there was only a vague outline in the distance.
How was the vine forest cave formed? In the silence, doubts gradually grew in Gu Xin's confidence. Although Kong Ling said that the cave was once a dark river under the Mirror Lake, connected to the waters of the Baoyun River. But so far, the places he and Kong Ling have walked through, except for the big karst cave, are all narrow and tortuous, not at all like there used to be a large amount of water flowing.
Gu Xin's fingers touched the stone wall of the cave, the cold and rough touch came from his fingers, the quiet and dim space, these stones seemed to have been born since ancient times, and they had existed for a long time until now.
After a cup of tea passed, Gu Xin's vigilant stalker did not appear, and Kong Ling picked up all the green vines and returned to Gu Xin's side.
"Sixty! With the addition of the ones we picked earlier, there are a total of 60 sticks!! Kong Ling unloaded the bundles of emerald green vines tied tightly with the golden spider silk on his shoulders beside Gu Xin, and was overjoyed, "Gu Xin, you can also carry a few bundles!" Let's keep looking! ”
Gu Xin frowned, Kong Ling was very excited, he should have absorbed too much of the toxins of the emerald green vine, and his mental condition was affected by the emerald green vine.
"Kong Ling, you have to rest first, since we have already picked so many green vines, we might as well return to the big karst cave and come back tomorrow."
Kong Ling shook his head directly, his eyes were open, and there were bloodshots in the whites of his eyes: "I don't have to rest!" I'm still full of yuanli! We are lucky, I am afraid that no one has been here before, so there are so many verdant vines! Now if you're lucky, I'll keep picking it, and if someone else finds out, they'll steal my green vine! ”
Kong Ling's body was stirring with Yuan Xin Yuan Force, as if a layer of light and flame enveloped him, "Gu Xin! Let's not waste any more time! Let's continue picking green vines! Walking along this road, there must be more emerald green vines, ten hundred roots, hundreds of green vines! ”
Gu Xin shook his head, "Even if there are hundreds of emerald green vines, you can carry so many by yourself." ”
"You can carry it too!" Kong Ling's eyes were bloodshot, staring straight at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin observed Kong Ling and felt the abundant Yuan Force on Kong Ling's body tumbling like a flame of light. He was sure that Kong Ling's spirit had been affected by the emerald green vine toxin, but at present, the Yuan Force in Kong Ling's body was indeed very abundant!
The Yuan Power of the Wood Yuan Xin can resist the toxins of the Emerald Green Vine, and generally speaking, only when the Yuan Power is exhausted, the martial artist will be affected by the Emerald Green Ivy.
The reason for Kong Ling's special situation should be that there are too many emerald green vines here, and the toxins of hundreds of emerald green vines have accumulated, exceeding the upper limit of Kong Ling's fourfold base element power that can resist.
In other words, since Kong Ling's Yuan Force is still very abundant, then he is not really poisoned by the emerald green vines, as long as Kong Ling is allowed to leave this place full of emerald green vines, whether he returns or continues to move forward, he will slowly become calm.
Gu Xin was no longer at a stalemate with Kong Ling and agreed to move on.
He had already made a plan in his heart, if Kong Ling's spirit was still extremely high after leaving this place, he would knock Kong Ling unconscious and drag him back to the big cave directly!
I don't know how many times it is, but the two of them took the green vines they picked and continued to move forward.
After leaving, about ten minutes later, Kong Ling's state gradually began to recover. The bloodshot eyes also slowly become normal.
However, the unexpected happened. The two jumped off a fault two or three meters high, and because of the dim light, they actually fell into a pool. The dark pool, cold and biting, when you swim to the shore, the sweet smell in the air is accentuated again. Kong Ling seemed to be captured, and as soon as he landed on the shore, he stared blankly at the depths of the pitch-black cave.
"Kong Ling!" Gu Xin was not good, and shouted Kong Ling's name.
However, Kong Ling ignored it and threw a few golden stones in his hand into the distance again. The orange-red light of the golden stone, like a few meteor ideas flying through the dark cave, the light shone through, only to see a large area of verdant green vines, crawling all over the entire cave next to the pool! On the top of the head, there are emerald green vines, under the feet, there are green vines, and on the left and right stone walls, there are also green vines, and their silent creeping growth fills the entire cave space!
"Ah!!h Kong Ling roared, and almost instantly, he staggered and rushed over.
"Mine! It's mine! It's all mine!! ”
The Yuan Force on Kong Ling's body also began to boil, turning into a flame of light to envelop him again. However, this time was different from before, Kong Ling's flame-like Yuan Force was quickly shattered in just a few seconds, and it was dissolved by the rich sweet and greasy toxins in the air to create terrifying holes, as if it had turned into a piece of rotten clothes, and it was scattered on the surface of Kong Ling's body.
The poisonous gas of the emerald green vine poured into Kong Ling's body through these Yuan Force holes. Let him go completely crazy.
Gu Xin wanted to stop him, he couldn't watch Kong Ling in front of his eyes, completely eroded by the toxin and turned into a madman. But Gu Xin had just chased a few steps, and what greeted him was a rich and sweet smell that he had never experienced before.
The poisonous gas of the green vine was almost dense into substance a few steps ahead, and even Gu Xin felt that the moment he stepped into that range, his body became wet, it was a large amount of poisonous gas rushing in, and tiny venom droplets condensed on his skin!
"Kong Ling! Come back! Gu Xin shouted, but his brain fainted, and the terrifying concentration of poisonous gas even exceeded the upper limit of his Yuan Spirit Realm! The vision seemed to be distorted, the things in front of me became blurry and strange, and the ears heard unspeakable and terrifying murmurs. The intensity of this poisonous gas will not only make Kong Ling a madman, but even Gu Xin himself will not be able to hold on for long!
"What the hell is this poison?!" Gu Xin roared in a low voice, trying to lift his spirits and stop his dizziness and sense of loss.
Poison, is Gu Xin familiar with poison?
In fact, in the previous life, the three elders of his Fengyue Sect were playing poisonous ...... So of course Gu Xin is familiar with many kinds of poisons!
But right now, the poisonous gas emitted by the green vines of the vine forest cave was completely unfamiliar to Gu Xin.
Even with his vision and knowledge, he didn't think of any better way to resist in a short period of time, so he could only rely on the condensed Yuan Force of the Yuan Spirit Realm to resist!
Moreover, when the poisonous gas was weak before, he didn't notice it, but now after the sweet and greasy taste was strong, Gu Xin vaguely found that in addition to the sweet and greasy taste of the green vine, there was really a wet fishy smell. It smells like blood, or rotten fish, or the smell of minced meat.
"Call the Sword Academy to come to the rescue!"
The situation in front of me was too critical, and I didn't expect to suddenly encounter so many green vines! Without hesitation, Gu Xin immediately decided to smash the distress token handed over to him and Gu Xin by the Sword Academy before entering the cave, and directly called the teacher of the Sword Academy to save people!
Gu Xin untied the small cloth bag given by the Sword Academy from his waist and reached out to touch it.
His expression changed suddenly.
In the cloth bag, he only touched a pile of broken pieces, and the distress token handed to him by the Sword Academy was crushed at some point!!
"Broken?! When?! ”
Gu Xin beat fiercely.
Who did this to you?! The cloth bag is hanging from his waist, who can secretly crush the distress token without him noticing?!
Gu Xin looked up at Kong Ling, who was completely insane and threw himself into the countless caves and green vines.
Kong Ling's token...... Is it broken too?
Gu Xin gasped.
The distress token of the Sword Courtyard is broken!
"Gu Xin!"
A creepy shout, and who was shouting Gu Xin's name!
Because this time, Kong Ling scattered the golden light stone around in advance, and Gu Xin finally saw a fleeting black humanoid shadow, which appeared in the depths of the countless verdant vines, and disappeared in a flash!
Gu Xin lowered his head and tried to stay awake.
No, did the shadow really see it, or did he hallucinate because of the influence of the emerald vine toxin?
