Chapter 251: Risking Your Life
In the distance, the clouds dissipated, and the darkness finally swallowed everything in the world as he wished, under Su Mai's full expectation.
Night, finally here!
He stood on the beach at the entrance of the valley and watched the ancient peach tree quietly, wanting to see what the strange tree was secret.
Silent for a moment, soon the harvest was reaped.
At first, I saw a little star light from the gap in the leaves, and then scattered around, and in a moment, the colorful light was all over the ancient peach tree, and the void was also a colorful anomaly, and the shadow glow flew all over the sky, at first it was just dancing around the ancient peach tree, and then it gradually dispersed into the river valley wasteland, until this endless wasteland, full of colorful fluorescent light.
And last night's strange peach fruit full of peach branches also quickly lit up, countless lights like lit lanterns, the ancient peach tree suddenly shined, standing in the vast night sky, like a giant tree, straight to the sky.
Su Mai stared at the glowing object motionlessly, and only reflected it when the brilliance was fully revealed.
"I see!" sighed secretly, but his heart became even more confused.
Last night, Su Mai was surprised that the fruit of the ancient peach tree would glow on its own, and it was not until this moment that he realized that this was not the case, behind the cluster of colorful light, there were countless shadows attached to it, if you didn't see it with your own eyes, it would naturally be difficult to detect, and when you looked at it from a distance, it seemed like the light emitted by the thing itself.
It's just that why these shadow fireflies are attached to this fruit, with what I saw last night, it seems to be protecting these fruits, and the big bird is crying because it is blocked by the fireflies and can't ask for it.
So it seems that both the big bird and the fireflies came from this tree!
It is not enough for the bird to perch on the body of the tree, but this shadow firefly is a creature of the earth, and it is said that it should not like the light of day, so it is impossible to hide in the leaves, although the branches and leaves of this ancient forest are dense, but in the daytime, the body of the tree cannot be pitch black.
Therefore, there is only one possibility, above this canopy, I am afraid that there is another way out!
Thinking about this section, Su Mai naturally quickly understood, if he wanted to leave here, he was afraid that he would have to go up the tree, but, with his ability, it was impossible to climb up, although the branches of this ancient peach tree were thick, but unlike the three mulberry ghost trees, there were no branches hanging down, but they were all stretched diagonally, heading towards the sky.
In this way, he naturally has nothing to borrow, and if he wants to go up, it will be like ascending to the sky.
Su Mai hesitated for a long time, but there was no way to deal with it, but after a while, the big bird also arrived as promised.
It seemed that the bird was determined to obtain the fruit of the ancient peach tree, and at this moment it did not bother, and stopped a few feet away from the canopy.
From a distance, the claws still seem to hold the struggling prey, and the beak of the bird seems to contain something, it looks like a rattan, hanging down, no less than a few feet long, but I don't know what to do.
The big bird seemed to be quite familiar with the habits of these shadow fireflies, and was not in a hurry to attack, but only flew up and down the periphery, occasionally circling the giant tree for half a circle, but eventually returned to the place where it had stayed before, and looked at the situation, as if it had taken a fancy to the peach in front of it.
Although the Shadow Firefly is not an ordinary creature, it is not very spiritual, although it is also a social residence, but such a large number of people protect this ancient peach tree, naturally there is a reason, but I am afraid that this peach is also a rare thing.
Admittedly, this East
No matter how good the West is, it has nothing to do with him, and now he just wants to get out of here quickly!
But now, he thought about it, and the only possible way out of the canopy was through the big bird.
The bird turned around for a long time, it didn't seem to have found a suitable breakthrough, hesitated for a moment, but it was a little breathless, the shadow firefly has no intelligence, all actions are mostly instinctive, so this bird wants to compare patience with them, but it is mostly boring for itself.
Flapping his wings, the giant claws flicked violently, and the two innocent animals shot away at once, but unlike yesterday, this time it was no longer a temptation one by one, but a left and a right to fly in the light clusters on both sides.
Countless fireflies suddenly dispersed like fireworks, and the light that was still flying freely before also surged up, devouring the poor little creature in an instant, and the screams disappeared immediately.
The big bird naturally didn't have much mercy, these two little beasts were just things to lure the enemy, and as soon as Fang made a move, he had already prepared a follow-up move.
Seeing that countless shadows and fireflies were attracted by it, he raised the bird's head, and the long vine in his mouth shook, but it shot straight towards the light cluster in the middle that looked like it was about a person's arms.
This time, apparently prepared, the rattan was pierced into the peach, stirring up a burst of fluorescent light, and when the giant bird saw this, it cried, sounding very excited, and grabbed the other end of the long vine with its claws, and wanted to fly away.
However, it was obvious that the reaction of the Shadow Firefly was too optimistic, and as soon as the long vine straightened, it saw countless points of light rushing towards it, attaching to the vine, and in an instant, it quickly crawled along the vine body.
The colorful bird's whole body flashed, and its claws shook rapidly, but no matter how it moved, the shadow firefly was like growing on the vine's body, and none of them were shaken off, and after a while, the originally black rattan was already a ribbon of colorful light, with the big bird's wave, flying rapidly in mid-air, looking from afar, it was very beautiful.
However, this big bird is not stupid, although it is a little reluctant, but when the swarm of insects approaches, it has no choice but to wave violently, throwing the rattan into the air, and then the giant wings flutter, sliding upwards several feet away, the mouth is full of sorrow, it seems to be very unwilling, but helpless.
When Su Mai saw this, he also regretted it!
Although he didn't know what the big bird wanted this peach for, but in his heart, he also hoped that it would get what it wanted, after all, in this lonely wasteland, only this bird was still a spiritual creature, and perhaps, it could be regarded as sympathy.
Feeling nostalgic for his life experience, listening to his mournful voice, Su Mai also felt a little sad, looked at the void that had returned to calm after a short period of chaos, and the big bird that was wandering but helpless, he was silent for a while, but suddenly had an idea.
Turning from the edge of the valley, he tore some weeds and dead branches, summoned a fireball, lit a bonfire, and then mustered up his strength and roared at the great bird.
The agitated and long whistling sound resounded in the long sound, in this empty world, it seemed particularly loud, in the four fields, there was a rustling sound, and many small animals hidden in the wasteland and grass were frightened to run around, dazed.
The big bird obviously didn't expect that in this lonely wasteland, there would be human beings, and when they heard the whistling sound, they also led their necks to chirp, and that appearance was really a little similar to the rumored phoenix.
Su Mai heard the chirp, as if it was a little intimidating, as if to warn him of this uninvited guest, this is its territory.
Sumai
After thinking about it, I didn't know where the bird came from, whether it had been in contact with the human monk before, and I wanted to respond with a whistling sound, but I was afraid that I would accidentally anger it, so after thinking about it again, I shouted at the big bird.
I don't know if I really understood, but I saw the bird hovering in mid-air for a moment, and then with a sharp cry, it swooped towards the place where Su Mai was.
A gust of wind whirled sharply, causing the ground to fly sand and rocks, and the fire was scattered, and by the time Su Mai reacted, there was already a mighty and majestic giant bird on the side of the fire.
It was far away before, Su Mai couldn't see it really, and at this moment he stood less than three zhang in front of him, but found that this bird stood upright, it was several zhang high, its whole body was colorful, gorgeous and abnormal, and its huge feathers were attached to its whole body, and it looked like there was no trace of impurities.
Standing with his head held high like this, that look is also extremely proud.
"What a beautiful bird!" Su Mai sighed unconsciously.
"You are so good-looking, even if you are a real phoenix, I will call you a phoenix!" Su Mai took a step forward, grinning and almost.
This phoenix bird didn't seem to be quite hostile to Su Mai, and lowered its head slightly, its eyes full of deterrence and vigilance.
Seeing this, Su Mai couldn't help but pause.
Right now, he wanted to escape from here, and his only hope was in this phoenix bird, and he naturally didn't want to anger it unless he had to.
However, this bird does not seem to be domesticated by human monks, so naturally it cannot understand human language, Su Mai said a lot to himself, but in exchange for an angry glare without repercussions.
It seems that the bird only cares about the peaches on the tree, and does not seem to be interested in Su Mai, perhaps in its opinion, Su Mai's meat is not as tender as those little beasts.
Saying no, Su Mai couldn't help but dance and compare his movements, just to tell this phoenix bird that he was nothing more malicious and wanted to cooperate.
However, the phoenix bird didn't care about his self-entertaining performance, and was even a little irritable, but after Su Mai made a few gestures, he stared at the phoenix and hissed at Su Mai, but that look was very unfriendly.
Seeing this, Su Mai was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his ears, this bird oil and salt did not enter, but it made him a little embarrassed!
Mo then took two steps back, Su Mai had no choice but to show weakness first, stabilize the big bird, his eyes unexpectedly looked into the air, when his eyes locked on the peach that was swept by the phoenix bird's long vine, he suddenly had an idea in his heart.
Turning around, he sat down beside the black sword that lay in front of the fire, and then solemnly took out a small package from his bosom, peeled it off layer by layer, and inside was a yellow fruit, and a small cloth ball wrapped in white silk cloth.
This cloth group is naturally the relics of the master of the Wuding Temple under the dungeon of the Iron Sword Gate, and this fruit is a few years ago, he went to Heimu Mountain with Wu You to seek art, and inadvertently saved a purple gold mink in the hundred miles of green reeds in front of the mountain, which was a gift to him.
This green spirit fruit can be golden, since it is rare in the world, so all these years, Su Mai has been carrying it with him, even when he encountered distress, he did not eat it, and then in the Fuji Tavern, he entrusted the relics to useless, so he transferred this fruit together as a reward, but then he returned in disguise, useless and returned the two to him.
This relic is of great significance to him, so he has always cherished it on his body and hid it properly, and if it were not for his helplessness today, he would not have made such a decision.
