Chapter 81: Tianpeng Mountain
"My arm?" Han Xiao looked down, only to realize that his arm had become so weird.
It's still the arm that has been demonized, but now the arm has not been demonized into a vine, but has become a green and quiet patch. Not only did the complexion turn green, but the whole arm seemed to have turned into green water, constantly flowing, and Han Xiao even noticed that he couldn't feel the feeling of being in his arm anymore.
"This is?" Han Xiao subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, but suddenly heard Brahma's words: "Don't touch that, wait for it to slowly recover." ”
"What the hell is going on?" Han Xiao couldn't help but continue to ask.
"You've eaten too many Void Beasts, and the bones in your body can't be completely digested, and all those powers have been gathered into your demonized arm at a critical time, if nothing else, you should have a lot of gains this time. ”
Brahma's words made Han Xiao feel a little relieved, and after waking up, he felt the condition of his body, and Han Xiao knew that he would not die, but he was more worried about what abnormalities would continue to appear in his body. In fact, now just the mutation of an arm has made him often uneasy, and if there is still an abnormality, Han Xiao can't tell whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.
"However, if you have the chance, you'd better go find that steel egg, and go to the so-called tribe with him to see, there are some parts of your body that even I can't understand, if you put it in the past, it's naturally okay, but since you have cultivated the Flood Desolation Returning Technique, you can't have too many unclear explanations, if it continues like this, no one can say what kind of mutation will appear in the future." Regarding Han Xiao's current condition, Brahma seemed worried.
Han Xiao smiled bitterly, how could he not know the strangeness of his body, but where was this kind of thing that he could solve if he wanted to.
King Zhuge not far away was always staring at Han Xiao, and it was obvious that he was also full of curiosity about Han Xiao. After relieving himself, Han Xiao looked at King Zhuge and habitually put down the problems that could not be solved for the time being, Han Xiao opened his mouth and asked: "What kind of living state is your tree people, I have also seen tree people, but they don't look the same as you." ”
"Those are just the most ordinary dryads, although we are a branch of the dryads, we are still more clever than them, at least we can really transform into human forms. King Zhuge explained.
"Huh. Han Xiao smiled and said, "If you don't say it, I can't see that you are a transformed human form at all." ”
"I practice the power of wood, and the power of nature will make me look not much different from normal humans. King Zhuge explained again.
"What is the relationship between you and Wu Yue'an, I always feel that you don't seem to have an ordinary master-slave relationship. After hesitating for a while, Han Xiao finally opened his mouth to ask this question, this doubt had already appeared when he first met Wu Yue'an and King Zhuge at that time.
In this regard, King Zhuge didn't explain anything immediately, but lowered his head again and began to roast the fire, as if he hadn't heard Han Xiao's question.
Han Xiao's biggest advantage is his knowledge, seeing that King Zhuge was reluctant to speak, he simply laughed at himself and began to walk around. After walking around quickly, Han Xiao found that they seemed to be halfway up the mountain, and they seemed to be at the foot of the mountain, which made Han Xiao very puzzled.
Thinking of King Zhuge Wang's answer when he first woke up, Han Xiao still didn't dare to ask uncertainly, "Is this really Tianpeng Mountain?"
"That's it. ”
"How can you be sure, just because we're in the mountains?" asked Han Xiao even more puzzled.
"Because there is only one mountain here, whether it is a continent or a giant island, after I escaped from the sea with you, it will be a mountain as soon as I ascend here, anyway, in my understanding, it seems that only Tianpeng Mountain in the Andi Sea is in line with such a terrain. As soon as he finished speaking, King Zhuge added: "Anyway, the Tianpeng Mountain I was looking for at that time was almost like this." ”
"By the way, what are you looking for, spending so much effort, arresting so many people, and in the end just to rush up such a mountain?"
King Zhuge was not annoyed, and he didn't even bother to hide this kind of problem, and immediately said: "I don't know exactly where the news came from, in short, not too long ago, there was such a news in the Andi Sea, in a place called Tianpeng Mountain, a divine tree appeared, of course, the so-called divine tree must be just an exaggeration, but no matter what the tree is called, the rumors about it are mysterious and mysterious." According to rumors, this sacred tree is called the Optimus Tree, and when the world was opened, the blue sky was supported by some towering sacred trees, and this Optimus Tree was one of the towering sacred trees that year. ”
"How is this possible. As soon as Han Xiao heard these descriptions, he couldn't help but laugh: "What is the so-called opening of the heavens and the earth, what is the supernatural divine tree, how long has this heaven and earth been formed, who can say clearly, and whether the heaven and earth were slowly stretched out in the chaos or suddenly became what they are now, no one can say, how can there be such a divine object." Take 10,000 steps back, even if this is the sacred tree that held up the blue sky back then, it should have survived for hundreds of millions of years now, it can even hold up the sky, why can't we see it now? Could it be that the tree will grow smaller and smaller?"
If you want to say anything, as long as you meet a natural person who is willing to drill the horns of the bull, it is easy to say it, Han Xiao directly denied those rumors, although it was not aimed at King Zhuge , but it still made the current atmosphere a little embarrassing.
"You're right, we've thought about it before. In the end, King Zhuge could only answer with a wry smile, if you want to talk about the understanding of trees, how can Han Xiao know better than King Zhuge who is already a tree man. King Zhuge also understands quite well that even if the tree withers, at most it will stop growing, or simply collapse directly, and there is no reason why it will grow smaller and smaller.
"But having said that, the provenance of the sacred tree is naturally questionable, but the wonderful use of the sacred tree is still very attractive. ”
"None of you have ever seen that tree, how do you know that it is useful?" Han Xiao still asked without knowing whether he was alive or dead, his courage also came from the current state of King Zhuge , after talking, Han Xiao found that King Zhuge was now weak as if he had no cultivation at all, maybe this was related to what happened to him before, but at least now he was with him and he didn't have to worry too much about being killed by the other party, which made Han Xiao have enough patience to discuss these things with King Zhuge .
King Zhuge also seemed to really want to find someone who could speak, and the rumors about the Divine Tree were told to Han Xiao endlessly. It turns out that the reason why these people are so eager for Tianpeng Mountain and so obsessed with the sacred tree is because of a group of pirates. Not long ago, a group of pirates in the Andi Sea suddenly rose strongly, and even in the chaotic Andi Sea now, they can expand their power without any scruples, this situation made the pirates in the Andi Sea feel very curious, and slowly several powerful pirate gangs united together, and then designed to destroy the suddenly rising pirates, including Wu Yue'an and others.
In the process of destroying that group of pirates, King Zhuge and the others finally understood why that group of pirates suddenly rose, not because they had mastered a more sophisticated spirit cannon, nor because the boss of that group of pirates had practiced some peerless magic skills that could laugh at the Andi Sea, or even how strong the overall combat power of that group of pirates was.
Just because, their ships have become faster.
"I still remember that battle vividly. King Zhuge said with great emotion: "That group of pirates also has three ships, but their ships are too fast, the speed of the ships is at least twice as fast as ours, what kind of concept is this? This means that our spirit cannon is just about to be aimed, but other people's ships have already run out of the range of our spirit cannon." It wasn't a fierce battle at all, we didn't even have a chance to fire, it was funny at first, like a boring game of sea pursuit. ”
"And in the end, how did you defeat them in the end? Han Xiao asked.
"Surrounding, that is, by encirclement, we dispatched a total of more than fifty pirate ships, surrounded them from all sides, their ships were much faster, but they did not become very strong, and in the end, they could no longer run when they hit them directly, so they naturally caught them. When King Zhuge said these words, he didn't feel much proud, but looked a little helpless.
"Those pirate ships have become so fast, is it because of that sacred tree?" Han Xiao continued to ask, as for the life and death of those pirates, he was too lazy to ask again, there would be no other end than death.
King Zhuge finally confirmed Han Xiao's guess, but of course this can't be regarded as any speculation. From the mouths of those pirates, they learned about the wonders of the sacred tree of Tianpeng Mountain, and also learned the specific location of Tianpeng Mountain, and most importantly, they did find some wood from the bottom of the pirates' ships. Those timbers were only reinforced with the simplest means of refining, and even the wood itself had not undergone any refining, which was such a practice, which had already doubled the speed of their ships, and it was conceivable that if those special woods were used as the main ingredient to really build a warship, how fast that ship would be.
This is Han Xiao's most unrealistic idea, but when he said this sentence jokingly, King Zhuge said extremely sternly: "Maybe it is really possible to fly." ”
With the idea of building a superb warship, these people embarked on a journey to find Tianpeng Mountain, and even after learning that the situation near Tianpeng Mountain was so difficult, they still moved forward. By now, even Han Xiao could already understand how important it was to have a superb warship in this endless sea.
Knowing these circumstances, Han Xiao could now guess the purpose of the Imperial Navy's coming here. After seeing the power of the Shenwei ship, Han Xiao could already think of the Imperial Navy's ability to control the sea area. Even if it's so far away, they probably have their own way of getting the news here.
"What the hell are you in now, why do I feel like you're not cultivating anymore? "What can be said about Tianpeng Mountain is almost the same, Han Xiao thought about it for a while, and still asked.
King Zhuge looked at him for a while, and said: "It is an extremely difficult thing for the demon race to form a human being, and if you transform from a human form to the ontological state, there will also be a great consumption, this time the consumption is too great, I will have to rest for at least three days or so to recover, during this period I will be like a waste person." ”
King Zhuge was very calm when he said these words, and even slightly had an attitude that he wanted to see Han Xiao's reaction, but there was no fear in his eyes.
Han Xiao didn't know what others would do in the face of such a situation, at least in the face of the guy who saved his life at a critical moment, Han Xiao said that there was no way to kill the killer, although he forced himself to such a field, there was also part of the reason for King Zhuge , but saving his life is saving his life, Han Xiao finally just waved his hand and said: "Trust my words, I will protect you for the past three days." ”
"Oh, that's very good. King Zhuge smiled and nodded.
"Isn't there a lot less danger on Tianpeng Mountain this day, why haven't you seen any enemies appear until now?" After looking around for a long time, Han Xiao asked with a big grin.
As a result, I don't know if it is retribution, but as soon as I finished saying this, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. Han Xiao felt bad, looked up at the sky that had darkened for some reason, and muttered, "Ominous premonition." ”
King Zhuge nodded in agreement, and just wanted to speak, but in the end he was stunned, and he forgot to put down his raised hand. Just when he was about to speak, Han Xiao hid directly in the deepest part without thinking about it, and hid himself tightly. It wasn't until a long time later, after the darkness had passed, that Han Xiao slowly walked out from behind. Seeing the stunned King Zhuge Dawang, Han Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Ah, by the way, I promised to protect you." ”
King Zhuge felt his scalp twitch, and he didn't know what else to say.
"I'm sorry, it's a completely instinctive reaction, since I was a child, my third uncle told me to run first if I was in danger, and then I felt bad just now, so I didn't hold back and ran first. Han Xiao smiled and explained to King Zhuge with a smile, just looking at King Zhuge 's expression, he had already blushed in the end.
King Zhuge suddenly sighed, and said helplessly: "To be honest, I really don't understand what kind of person you are, let's say that you are a lewd kid, you can not even want your life for the sake of your relatives, and there are so many like-minded partners around you, which is enough to prove that your heart is not crooked." But if you do bad things and ruthless things, you kid is not ambiguous at all. To be honest, I really want to know how you grew up. ”
"It's very simple, growing up in an environment where your grandmother doesn't love your uncle and uncle, as long as it's good for you, you can do anything, as long as it's bad for you, then stay away, that's all. Han Xiao pursed his lips, not thinking that the evaluation that King Zhuge gave him was anything extraordinary.
Suddenly, the two of them in the conversation all shut down and cautiously looked in one direction on the mountain, and finally, the two of them saw a large group of shadows walking towards the mountain, towards them.
Seeing this, Han Xiao tried to squeeze out a smile on his face, but it was more ugly than crying. Those shadows were not shadows cast by dark clouds, they were a large group of monsters. Soon, when they got closer, Han Xiao was completely sure that all the people who rushed over were Void Beasts.
I don't need to go into details, but if you look at the big picture, you can already draw a conclusion.
It's dead.
The Void Beasts that were driven down from the mountain were not thousands, and the single strength of the Void Beasts was certainly not very strong, but in the face of so many Void Beasts in such a situation, it was almost impossible to escape. Even if he summoned the Heavenly Demon Arm, in Han Xiao's opinion, it was just a delay in the time of death.
"Why don't I go first?" you help me with the queen of the palace?" After looking at the old man for a long time, Han Xiao suddenly spoke.
King Zhuge looked at Han Xiao with his eyelids jumping, and said lightly: "You can try to be a little more shameless, really." ”
Jokes are jokes, when Han Xiao said those words, he knew that he couldn't escape. At this moment, his heart was full of doubts, the number of times he had dealt with the Void Beast was not small, and he had eaten a lot of Void Beasts to put it mildly, and even now there were undigested Void Beast bones in his body, but even Brahma often said that the Void Beast's spiritual intelligence was very low, so low that it was almost no different from ordinary beasts, but looking at the situation in front of him, Han Xiao couldn't help but doubt the correctness of this conclusion.
Han Xiao had a feeling that they had obviously been hiding very carefully, but they were still discovered, maybe they had fallen into the trap of the Void Beast, or the encirclement. This kind of idea is absurd, but it has to make Han Xiao think in this direction.
In the end, those void beasts still walked up, and Han Xiao just wanted to make a move, but King Zhuge suddenly stopped him: "Don't worry, it seems that there is still a chance." ”
Before King Zhuge could finish speaking, more than a dozen Void Beasts suddenly rushed out, seeing their charging posture, Han Xiao almost couldn't hold back and wanted to make a move, but soon he found that those Void Beasts were just standing in front of him and King Zhuge and kept roaring and barking, as if the hound saw the prey, but it was as if the hound saw the master.
Anyway, these Void Beasts are barking like hounds.
Han Xiao is also happy to be like this, anyway, it is his own disadvantage now, and it is naturally the best result for the other party not to do it. However, the Zhuge King beside him always looked peaceful, as if he could understand the roars of these void beasts, and even nodded from time to time as if in agreement. Seeing King Zhuge 's appearance, Han Xiao almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and he was scolding in his heart: "I didn't see that this big black guy is quite good at acting." ”
Finally, the dozen or so Void Beasts stopped roaring, and the most majestic of them all...... A void beast turned its head and roared behind him a few more times.
Han Xiao looked at it happily, and opened his mouth to ask King Zhuge , "What did it say?"
King Zhuge smiled and said, "It said, come out and speak human words." ”
