Chapter 330: Where Did the Birds Go?
Not far outside Sunset City, a carriage stopped, and unexpectedly a place like this outside the city where there were probably brute beasts was actually very lively.
The pavilions are built on the edge of the cliff, like a long cyan dragon, there is a bit of the taste of tourist scenery, some hawkers or drive horse-drawn carriages or carry baskets along the way to sell, most of them are some fruits to eat and the like, forming a small market.
Jing Ge'er's little maid Ming Lu was very clever, parked the carriage and ran to a high three-pillar pavilion, giving money and pointing to this side, and I don't know how to make the other party satisfied with the pavilion.
Minglu still has some vision, this pavilion is extremely high, the scenery outside is unobstructed, the pavilion is very close to the cliff, it seems that you can jump down with your head stretched out, the cliff outside does not know how deep and wide it is, you can only see the endless white mist forming the ocean, you can't see the end, no wonder it can be called the sea of clouds.
Of course, it is not ordinary to be a small guy who can become the son of the young merchant mansion, it is to spread the carpet and fiddle with food, and it is also worthy of fine wine on the stone table, but for a while, this general pavilion actually reveals a luxurious atmosphere, when you walk in, it is indeed very comfortable, and it is indeed a pleasure to enjoy the beautiful scenery in such an environment, and Jing Ge'er's extravagance can be seen.
"Hehe, wait a while, you will definitely be surprised......" Brother Jing handed over a glass of wine and boasted, now he can see some sunset, but the strange scene in Brother Jing'er's mouth has not yet appeared.
Minglu poured wine while going out from time to time to look at the sun in the sky, to determine the time, there were also people around who came over, but after seeing Minglu, he was obviously stunned, and then went around, Jing Ge'er seemed to be used to it, and he didn't mind at all.
The sky gradually darkened, no need to be reminded by the bright road, Lu Chen also found an abnormality, the original white sea of fog was gradually dyed into the red of the sun, and the red had a golden light, the fog was as strong as water, it seemed that it was still fog at all, a rhythm, like a turbulent wave, very spectacular, completely a red sea of gold.
"How's it going?" asked Brother Jing.
Lu Chen nodded, it is indeed good, at least such a spectacle would not have been able to be seen in his previous life, he was imprisoned for two years, and now he has an indescribable feeling of freedom while tasting wine and enjoying such a spectacle.
"When the sun is about to set, you pay attention to what the real golden crow is homecoming. Jing Ge'er reminded.
The sun is like a fiery red ball, although it is not as dazzling as it is at noon, but if you look at it too closely, there will still be a tingling feeling, and the fireball falls, little by little, into the ocean below the cliff, this ocean is its lair.
When the sun set, the ocean actually formed a whirlpool, a fiery red and golden whirlpool, and with the naked eye, the sun really fell into this cliff.
Lu Chen stood up suddenly, and a ray of light appeared in his eyes, even the slightest light that Brother Jing next to him could see, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many people here, Lu Chen would even have to open the vertical eyes on his forehead.
"No, doesn't it look like the sun is setting here. Brother Jing'er's face was full of excitement, as if it was very remarkable to be able to shock Lu Chen like this, as for the light in Lu Chen's eyes just now, the time did not last long, he thought it was the reflection of the sea of clouds.
At this time, Lu Chen's heart was full of surprise, what did he see? Countless birds were flying in the sea of clouds, and the sun in the sky was not falling at all, but was forcibly seized by these birds, forming a kind of vision, as if the sun had fallen into the sea of clouds.
But this can be completely fake, even the golden rooster god flag can't do it, what are those flying birds? Lu Chen even doubted that even the ancient relics couldn't do such a thing, could it be the ancient beasts? But there were too many of them.
"What's under this sea of clouds? hasn't anyone ever explored it?" asked Lu Chen.
"No, I've been there once. Brother Jing replied, "It's a sycamore forest, I thought it was a good thing, but I cut a lot of it and burned it as wood." ”
Is it an ordinary sycamore? so many birds don't see it?" "No other vision?"
"No, I don't. Brother Jing replied.
"What is the beginning of this spectacle of sunset clouds?"
Jing Ge'er touched his head, "I don't know, even the classical landscape here is recorded, but I don't know when it started, maybe it can be traced back to ancient times, so long, who can know." ”
Is it strange that no one has found those birds for so long?
Brother Jing glanced at Lu Chen, "Why don't I take you to the bottom of the sea of clouds, outsiders will go here once." ”
Lu Chen nodded, since so many people were fine, it shouldn't be anything for him to go down and take a look, and with his unique talent, he couldn't say that he could gain something.
Brother Jing led the way, and there was actually a bend and a downward path on the edge of a cliff, and I really couldn't see that this was the road if I didn't pay attention to it.
The further down they went, the fog became, and the three of them seemed to be drowned in the fog, and they could only see some figures from each other.
"The fog is at its thickest at this time, and it's better at other times. Jing Ge'er said.
The mist was supposed to be icy and cold, but how could Lu Chen have the illusion that there was an abnormal dryness in this mist, which was disturbed by the power of the sun that was sucked down by the birds?
The path twists and turns, and it takes many turns to get to the bottom.
Indeed, there are many sycamore trees, so to speak, a large sycamore forest, and each one is very tall.
Lu Chen stretched out his hand and touched a sycamore tree.
"Is it an ordinary sycamore?" Although Brother Jing has been here, he still has a feeling of treasure hunting, his head is shaking everywhere, he feels that there is any treasure in this place, but he just can't find it.
Lu Chen's hand swiped on the plane tree, there was indeed nothing abnormal, and there was no trace of flying birds in the clouds, strange, how could so many flying birds disappear inexplicably? Others may not be able to see those flying birds, but his eyes can directly pass through these fogs, and it is impossible that he can't find any of them.
"Go inside and take a look. "It's still on the edge, and you might find something out if you go in a little bit.
Maybe it's because it's late, and there are no other people in the foggy sycamore forest, and this is not a city, so there are no wild beasts, so there are fewer people.
Walking all the way inside, Lu Chen's eyes did not let go of any plane tree, and looked at the sky from time to time, but found nothing, which was strange, the birds he saw were definitely real, and he still believed in his eyes.
"Come and see, this is the largest tree in the entire sycamore forest, and I don't know how many years it has lived, and there is a record of it in ancient books about the sunset and the sea of clouds. Jing Ge'er's voice came.
It was indeed so large that a dozen people might not be able to surround it, and the trunk of the tree was directly inserted into the mist that swirled above.
This sycamore is a little different from the others, the leaves are dyed with a hint of gold, there is a burning feeling, Lu Chen reached out and picked a sycamore leaf, there was a faint fluctuation of vitality, but it was not up to the level of a spiritual plant, it was contaminated on foreign objects?
If the only thing that is a little abnormal in the entire Sycamore Forest is this largest sycamore tree, what value can it have if it is not even a spirit plant?
Strange, so strange, why was there nothing but the plane tree? not even a single feather that had fallen or a single footprint left by accident, how could it be that the flock of birds he had seen on it, and thousands of them, had disappeared without a trace?
Lu Chen walked around the big tree, and then looked around, except for Brother Jing, who was in good spirits, and Minglu, a little girl who had long wanted to persuade Brother Jing to go back, there was no one else, Minglu was in a hurry now, it was so late, what if a brute beast came out.
"Step away. Suddenly, Lu Chen spoke.
"What did you find?" Brother Jing'er's eyes lit up, he couldn't find any clues, but if there was really anything here, the person in front of him was the most likely to be discovered by the entire Xuan Huan.
Lu Chen shook his head, reached out and took off the headdress on his forehead, a scarlet vertical pattern was revealed, although he didn't find anything now, but after opening his eyes, he couldn't tell, and he couldn't be sure if it would be dangerous.
Minglu was inexplicably dragged away by Brother Jing, and now there is another one who can play better than Brother Jing, but he is still worried about it so late, and he doesn't know that they haven't gone back so late, the master knows that at most, he will scold Brother Jing, whether he will be beaten or not depends on the mood of the master.
Jing Ge'er stretched out his head to look, Ming Lu was still thinking nonsense, and suddenly, a red light in front of him lit up in the thick fog.
Lu Chen's forehead, a cold eye opened, and a red light shot out, and the dense fog that pierced the sky shone straight towards the top of the huge sycamore tree.
