Chapter 18: Islands. Where the sword is forbidden
Ahead was silent, an empty beach up to 500 meters wide, and the endless coastline was filled with fine sand particles, crystal clear, like colorful particles flashing like a halo of light, and completely blocking everyone's escape route.
"What should I do, there is no road, is this an island?" Chen Ling couldn't help choking, the pear blossoms were raining, and he was very reluctant to accept the facts he saw in front of him.
"What is the sea ahead?" Yuan Fan was taken aback, the scene in front of him was beyond the limits of his imagination.
The colorful golden sand occupies everyone's field of vision, and at the end, there is an endless sea area surrounding the land.
The purple mist was ethereal, silent as deep as the starry sky, as if it could devour all life. There is not a trace of waves on the sea, purple and black, seamlessly connected with the color of the sky, as if it has reached the end of the world, full of unknown and mysterious.
"What to do, those strange beasts should be catching up soon."
"We seem to have come to the end of the world, what to do, I don't want to die yet."
The purple water sea blocked everyone's way forward, lifeless, although there was a purple glow of ten thousand paths, but everyone felt that there was no way to escape, and they all stood in despair in place, waiting for the next to be bitten or intercepted by foreign beasts.
"Boom, boom!"
At this moment, the ground began to tremble, and then everyone heard an earth-shattering roar from the depths of the mountain forest behind them, which was the death song of the roar of the alien beast.
"Run, don't care so much, keep running, don't give up until the last moment!" Qin Hutian's voice trembled, and although his face turned pale under the threat of death, he still encouraged everyone and gave him hope and comfort.
It's just that this time his words didn't have much effect, and several women were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak and they couldn't run at all.
"Silly stand and wait for death, Yu Shi, run, even if you are buried in the sea, don't be eaten by those strange beasts." Li Si shouted loudly, terrified to the extreme. Everyone ran forward, and when they saw that Deng Yushi was still motionless, they directly stopped her waist and carried her to chase quickly.
"Run, those beasts are already crazy!"
The roar in the forest was getting closer and closer, and the woman who was so frightened that her legs were weak and she couldn't run was pulled forward by others. Among them, there are Su Shi and Mu Xi, both of whom are eighteen or nineteen years old, as students, they have never felt that death will be so close, their bodies tremble involuntarily, and they can only rely on Lin Guangtou and the three of them to run wildly.
On the verge of death, humanity will always burst out with amazing potential!
Ahead, Yuan Fan led Chen Ling to run constantly, and at the critical moment, he couldn't wait to grow two more legs. At the speed of a 100-meter sprint, the two of them ran to the beach in four or five minutes, and without the slightest hesitation, and did not care whether those purple sea waters were poisonous or not, the two jumped straight in.
"Fan, I'm afraid...."Chen Ling's lips were dry, his face was pale, his body trembled uncontrollably because of the incomparable panic in his heart, the sea water watered, his clothes were instantly wet, and his beautiful curves were in full view.
"It's okay, I'll always be there for you, follow me." Yuan Fan held Chen Ling tightly, with a resolute look in his eyes.
Life and death are fate, everything depends on the will of God. He planned to swim through this sea area with Chen Ling, but this practice was like fishing for the moon in the sea, which was tantamount to asking for his own death.
At this time, the others also ran to the beach and jumped into the water one after another. In the face of the threat of death, in the face of those huge beasts that are about to be pursued, everyone is willing to swim across the sea, even if they know that they may not survive if they do so, but it is better to be buried in the sea than to be devoured by the beasts.
The purple mist was misty, the sea was silent, the purple sea was like a mirror without waves, and even the ripples of the sea water did not occur, which could not help but make everyone's hearts rise again with the hope of living.
Han Laosan shouted excitedly: "Swim quickly, this sea water can support the weight of a person, and it can't sink at all." ”
The purple-black water is very strange, like a mixture of coarse salt, and you don't have to think about sinking your body when you swim.
"Woooooo
While everyone continued to swim forward, a terrifying wave of air hit the colorful beach behind them. Everyone looked back, their pupils contracted sharply, and they couldn't help but gasp, and several women were so frightened that they couldn't speak, and they were in a cold sweat.
"That.... That...."
"There is.... Alien Beasts... Chasing after you! ”
The colorful sand beach shimmered brightly, and more than a dozen strange beasts suddenly burst out of the forest, each with a huge beast body like a hill, and in the blink of an eye, it occupied a 500-meter-wide beach.
Unheard of, the scales and armor of the alien beast are jet black. Unseen, the huge canine teeth were as long as a foot, emitting red rays. This made everyone on the sea freeze in place, not daring to act rashly, for fear that all those strange beasts would pounce on them.
"Why don't they chase and look at the sky?" When he came back to his senses, Yuan Fan found that those strange beasts did not jump into the sea in pursuit, but looked up at the air in the distance vigilantly.
Chen Ling was puzzled, and also followed the eyes of the strange beast, and then exclaimed in surprise: "Look, there are two figures in the air over there......
"It's humans, there really are people...."
"Is that a fairy? I can fly in the sky! ”
Everyone was amazed, in the purple mist of the sky, two figures came with rainbow light, crisscrossing the heavens and the earth, like the immortals coming to the world in person, and also like the Supreme Heavenly Venerable who came specifically to save them.
The two figures were blurry at first, hidden in the purple mist, looming in the mist. In an instant, the rainbow light penetrated the heaven and earth, and in the end, it gradually became clear, it was a man and a woman, with a green shirt and tulle, a delicate face, and a skin like jade showing an extraordinary luster.
"Did the immortals come to save us?" Su Shi cried and cried, and saw the two of them unconsciously leaning forward.
"That woman is so beautiful, like an eternal beauty who has come out of a dream." Mu Xi, who didn't like words, couldn't help muttering softly when he looked at the woman.
The woman's appearance is amazing, her temperament is dusty, graceful and beautiful, the tulle dances without wind, and the faint and wonderful curves make everyone who sees it admire, it is really like a fairy who cannot be blasphemed.
A man and a woman were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they came to the front and stood in the air, each carrying a sheathed sword on their backs. It's just that the two didn't understand what everyone said, and after looking at the strange beasts on the beach, their brows were deeply furrowed.
"I don't know what the two immortals are called?" Yuan Fan thought about it, plucked up his courage, or went up to hug each other, and performed a Taoist etiquette slightly.
This is the most common encounter ritual in Chinese Taoism. The left hand surrounds the right hand, slightly raised, resembling a yin-yang diagram. There is a meaning that good is the top, evil is the bottom, hugging each other on the chest, bowing and saluting. Yuan Fan is a Taoist believer, and this salute is a sign of respect.
It's just that the two of them didn't understand his words!
The two glanced at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they could not understand the language and did not understand. Although the words were incomprehensible, the two of them understood Yuan Fanxing's bow, and at the same time, they were a little surprised, and at the same time, they also bowed and returned the salute.
This scene really shocked everyone present, and they didn't dare to slack off, and they all returned the salute, even Lin Guangtou and the three of them pretended to salute the two of them.
The two of them had an otherworldly temperament under their feet, carrying long swords and standing in the air. At this moment, everyone's cognition was subverted, and at the same time, the atmosphere in the field gradually became awkward, and the two sides didn't know how to talk next.
Yuan Fan thought for a moment and pointed to the strange beasts on the beach.
The two of them suddenly understood, only to see the man nodding slightly, and then waved his big hand lightly at everyone, and the field was drizzling and squirming.
In an instant, a rainbow light fell down the drizzle, enveloping everyone in it, and after that, everyone's bodies also levitated, standing side by side with the two in the air.
The mist was surging under their feet, and everyone slowly rose into the air. For modern Yuan Fan and his party, this method is like the immortal art in myths and legends.
Looking at the islands and those strange beasts that gradually became smaller in his field of vision, Yuan Fan was silent, and he was amazed in his heart that this world was infinite and fantastic, and it was really as Mr. Zhou guessed.
From then on, Yuan Fan thought of Mr. Zhou De's diary, and after talking to Qin Hutian, he took it in his hand and flipped through it.
There are translations and annotations of the ancient Xuanwen in the diary. Yuan Fan tried to meditate in his heart and organized what he wanted to ask. Then he asked the man with the long sword, "I don't know where this is?" ”
This sentence was asked in Gu Xuanwen, and Yuan Fan said it a little rusty. But the man understood, and asked in a low voice while being surprised: "This is the forbidden land of mortal swords, do you speak our language?" Who are you? How did you make it out alive? ”
The man asked three simple questions, but Yuan Fan felt helpless, the language barrier, communication difficulties, can only rely on the pronunciation of the notes in the diary to distinguish and translate, very slow.
Where the sword is forbidden! Could it be that the island is a forbidden place? Yuan Fan whispered to himself, and with great difficulty used the translation method in the diary to know the man's answers and questions.
There was a language communication barrier, Yuan Fan thought about it, used the notes on the diary to pronounce it, and then replied: "We came from other places, we got lost for a while, and accidentally broke into this so-called forbidden place. ”
When he first entered this world, Yuan Fan still felt that it was better to be careful. He didn't say that he and the others were from other life source stars, and the bronze ancient sword was shocking, and maybe the other party wouldn't believe it.
The man nodded slightly, and admonished: "That island has existed since ancient times, mysterious and dangerous, ordinary people dare not set foot on it, even we only dare to move on the coastline. Seeing that you are all ordinary people, it is indeed a miracle that you can survive. ”
Yuan Fan was silent and did not talk to him again, firstly, because it was too difficult to use the diary to translate the conversation, and secondly, he did not want to say much about himself and others.
"Fan, what did you talk to him?" Chen Ling and the others surrounded him, and they were extremely envious that Yuan Fan could talk to such an immortal.
Yuan Fan smiled bitterly, and told everyone that he had just talked in ancient Xuanwen, and he also said the words of the talented man again.
"Forbidden land?" After listening to Yuan Fan's story, everyone fell silent, and they didn't know what the so-called Fan Sword Forbidden Land meant.
For the danger, whether it was the giant beast that first slapped the bronze ancient sword, or those strange beasts that chased after it, they could not resist it alone, and everyone was terrified when they recalled what they had experienced, and it was extremely thrilling.
However, all this has passed, and everyone survived unharmed.
The sky is purple here, and after the third sun sets, night finally arrives.
