Chapter 315: Dead Land
After this experience, the disciples' contempt for the ancient barbarians disappeared invisibly.
Especially when they saw Agusu's smiling face, some people trembled.
The other party must have seen their behavior a long time ago, but she never spoke, knowing that they had been tricked, she came to the rescue.
There is kindness, even if the other party is deliberate, you can't blame anything, gentle knife, knife kills.
This is a friendly reminder from the ancient barbarian clan to the monks of the outside world, and it is also a response to those who are contemptuous.
And what about the barbarians.
As long as you are strong enough, even if you are really a primitive person, you don't have to bow your head.
And these can be regarded as the tacit understanding between the ancient barbarian clan and the Nine Sects, so those elders were silent from beginning to end, watching their disciples make stupid mistakes.
There are mountain people outside the mountain, and there are people outside the mountain.
No one knows if the people beyond a mountain are poor ants who can be trampled by you, or wild beasts that can trample you.
In the eerie peace, they brought out the dead woods.
The Guman Mountains are very lush with plants and many large trees, so many places are covered by a lush canopy, and it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate.
But when they saw the dead wood forest in front of them, it was as if they had suddenly traveled to another place.
As the word "deadwood" says.
As far as the eye can see, there are large gray-brown branches, which are dull, like the stumps of trees that have been dead for many years.
But these trees still "grow" high-spirited, because there are no leaves, so the branches have unique nutrients, very thick, and the shape is also extremely distorted.
One by one, with teeth and claws, as if they were performing some strange ceremony.
As soon as you get close to it, you can feel the oppressive environment.
It's so quiet.
Behind him, some insect chirping can be heard in the normal mountains, and the wind shuttles through the mountains and forests, and the sound is very pleasant.
But ahead, there was a dead silence.
The ground is brown, very dry, and there is no rain all year round, and there are dry crevices everywhere.
Inside, even if the wind blows, it can't bring out the slightest sound.
Before and after are two worlds.
At this moment, everyone felt that the power that suppressed their cultivation was disappearing, and the totem blessing belonging to the ancient barbarians appeared.
Lights and shadows flashed away.
Among them were majestic green trees, a roaring beast, and a dark blue snake.
Those are the totems of the three tribes.
Along with the blessing appears, showing a little bit of the power of witchcraft.
A hazy drizzle fell, gently and softly, with a sweet taste.
The sound of leaves in the Aoki wind and the sound of rain make the air fresh.
The roar of a beast in the distance pulled the man out of that strange experience.
Many people's eyes flickered, and they felt the impact of that different power.
In the drizzle, the voices of the elders rang out in their ears.
"Let's go inside."
"Everyone, if you want to quit, crush the jade pendant you are carrying, and then stand in place and wait for someone to pick it up."
Streamers of light pierced the sky above, and the elders went to the other end of the dead woods, and what they had to do was to reach the end in the fastest time and get the final victory.
"Let's go."
"Hurry up, hurry up."
Now there is no need to urge, one by one is not in the dead woods.
Although there are many people who come to each case, there is no need for collective action, as long as someone can reach the point first, it is a victory.
So they choose to act in squads more often.
On the side of the Tibetan Sword Sect, Liu Ru and Lu Yun pasted, but Lu Yun did not refuse.
Shangguan Li is arranging the team, and in order to ensure safety, the powerful ones are separated.
A team of five people, four teams led by Lu Yun, Shangguan Li, Feng Yuyao, and Song Xiao.
This kind of distribution is indeed very appropriate, that is, Feng Yuyao and Song Xiao have to act separately.
"You...... Be careful. Feng Yuyao whispered beside Song Xiao, with a little hesitation in her attitude of wanting to speak and stopping.
"Okay, I know, you should be careful."
Hooking the broken hair next to Feng Yuyao's ears and tidying it up, Song Xiao's smile was extremely gentle, and the doting eyebrows and eyes made people fall.
The gentleness occasionally shown by people who are cold by nature, like the warm sun in winter, is warm to the bones, especially when this tenderness is only for you, it is even more irresistible.
Lu Yun glanced at the two of them and led the team in.
They weren't the first to set off, there was already a team moving quickly ahead, and after a few breaths they were gone.
Lu Yun is not in a hurry.
This place is really so easy to conquer, why should Agusu take the initiative to mention the danger here.
"Ah Yun, the trees here are dead and alive, be careful underground."
"Besides, my power isn't being used here."
Agusu was secretly opening the back door for Lu Yun, listening to the reminder in his mind, Lu Yun nodded in the direction of Agusu to indicate that he knew.
Stepping into the range of the dead wood forest, Lu Yun's figure was stunned.
What is death?
The soul is scattered, the six realms are gone, and there is no reincarnation.
But, to put it more simply, it's lifeless.
These dead woods give people the feeling that they are growing in this soil, but they seem to have been dead for a long time.
Someone boldly touched it, and with a little force, the trunk cracked, and you could see the almost flocculent wood chips inside.
"What the hell?"
The team muttered, deviating from the direction of the Dead Tree King.
Lu Yun looked up at Yang Ri.
At this point, noon has not passed, so the sun is still overhead, and the scorching sun falls here, without the shade of the trees, you should be able to feel the temperature of the sun more intuitively.
Not really.
Instead of rising, the temperature has fallen.
Lu Yun's fingers stroked the dead wood, and his fingers moved, breaking open a small piece of trees.
It feels very rough to the touch, some grinding hands, and with a little force, the wood crumbles into granular sawdust, which is very brittle.
But......
Lu Yun handed a piece of bark to Liu Ru.
"How do you feel?" She asked.
Liu Ru touched Lu Yun's appearance: "It seems to be a little too scattered." ”
If a tree is described as a person, then the piece in her hand is like a piece of dead flesh without bones and meridians.
But if a person dies normally, although the flesh and blood will rot, the bones can last for thousands of years.
These dead woods seem to be the opposite of normal processes.
"What else?" She continued to ask.
The sunlight was a little dazzling, and Lu Yun squinted at the surrounding environment, because of her calmness, most of the team had already arrived in front of her.
The people who came with her were all people who trusted Lu Yun very much, and they didn't urge at the moment, but listened curiously to the conversation between the two, and one of them was a disciple named Song Jichen who also got started.
"Senior Sister Lu, the temperature doesn't seem right."
Song Jichen's tone was actually affirmative.
This dead wood forest, it can be said that as long as the sun comes out, it is exposed to the sun all day long, and with the black color of these dead trees themselves, even if the body surface temperature does not reach the obvious warmth, it should not be as cold as in their hands.
The temperature of the sun has disappeared here.
"Yes."
Lu Yun remembered that Agusu said that these trees are dead and alive.
If it is the dead wood that they saw, then what is the living part?
