Chapter 136: Lost Forest
"A Dream Layman?"
Zhang Feiyang has been in Chivalrous City for so long, and he has never heard of this name, but when he heard that this person could help him break through the bottleneck, he naturally asked curiously.
"Where does this Dream Layman live, and how do I find him?"
It's a pity that the seller doesn't seem to know much, just reported a general location, smiled awkwardly, hugged his fists with Zhang Feiyang, and pulled the car away.
It turned out that the reason why this monk called Yimeng Jushi could help Zhang Feiyang master the secret of the foundation building period monk was because this person had already been a Great Perfection monk in the Qi refining period a hundred years ago.
At that time, this person had a great reputation in Chivalry City, and he was also the most respected chivalrous man in Chivalry City.
It's a pity that a dream layman was gifted in cultivation during the Qi refining period, but he never succeeded in reaching the realm of the foundation building stage.
In this way, this person is actually strictly speaking, among all the monks in the Qi refining period, he has the most thorough research on the mysteries of the foundation building period, and he is also the most experienced monk in the realm of the foundation building period.
Even if this person was a complete failure, this did not prevent this person from worshipping in the minds of all Qi Refining Stage cultivators in Chivalrous City.
It's just that in the past hundred years, this person may have failed many times, and he was disheartened, and he also knew that he might not be able to advance to the foundation building period in this life, so he is no longer in the chivalrous city now.
After the monk left Chivalrous City, for a long time, the monks of Chivalrous City had no news of him.
It wasn't until the last ten years that someone happened to meet the deity of a dream monk in the lost forest in the east of Chivalrous City, and also accepted the personal guidance of a dream monk, and after coming back, he only retreated for a few months, and successfully made Xiuwei improve a small realm in the qi refining period, and this mysterious dream monk once again entered people's field of vision.
However, in recent years, somehow, Yimeng seems to be reluctant to see outsiders anymore.
Many of the monks who wanted to visit him were trapped in the Lost Forest, and for days or even months they could not see the monk himself, and only then did people forget about this master.
If Zhang Feiyang hadn't mentioned that he wanted to find out the mystery of the foundation building period, the monk would have forgotten about it a long time ago.
"A dream layman. It seems that we have to see each other. Try anything that can help break through the bottleneck, even if it doesn't help much, or maybe even can't. Otherwise, with my own mind alone, I am afraid that I may not be able to reach the foundation building period after a few decades of enlightenment. ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang nodded affirmatively, two firm gazes shot out of his eyes, and looked up at the sky, only to see a bright moon hanging high in the dark and cold night sky, releasing a soft light against the darkness around him.
Zhang Feiyang felt that this Mingyue situation was as if he was his current self, smiled slightly, and returned to the inn with endless expectations.
Three days later, to the east of Chivalrous City, there was a bamboo forest in the deepest part of a forest thirty or forty miles away.
The bamboo inside is thick and straight, the branches and leaves are green and lush, one by one is inserted into the ground, dense, disorderly, Zhang Feiyang, who stands in it, sweeps his head, and finds that all the environments in all directions are exactly the same, as if he is really caught in a maze, and he can't remember the way back.
"Lost Forest. Sure enough, it lives up to its name. Yimeng Jushi chose to spend his old age in this kind of place, which is really a good place. In this way, as long as Yimeng doesn't like to be disturbed by others, I'm afraid that outsiders like me won't be able to go to the deepest depths. ”
Zhang Feiyang tried to walk a while from the southeast, northwest, and northwest directions, leaving this bamboo forest, but found that when he stopped, he seemed to be still in the same place, and he didn't leave half a step.
However, he immediately came to his senses, put away his smile, his face sank, took out a piece of cloth from his arms, wrapped it around a pillar, and then walked to the nearest bamboo, trying to use the path-finding method that he had once used in the ice field in the north of Wu Kingdom, using cloth as a mark and direction, and exploring little by little to places he had never been.
In this way, with a little more effort, you should be able to go to the deepest depths in no time.
It's a pity that these bamboos are much more powerful than the pine trees in the ice fields in the north of Wu Kingdom.
Zhang Feiyang only wrapped three bamboos, and these three bamboos seemed to know Zhang Feiyang's intentions, and suddenly quickly rotated in place, and the cloth that Zhang Feiyang had just wrapped was torn into pieces with a loud sound, and under the forced pulling, it was torn into pieces.
At the same time, I don't know what direction it is, suddenly there was a strong wind, and at the same time, all the bamboos rustled and shook, and those rags flew up and blew into the distance, and in less than half a stick of incense, they were all gone, and they were no longer visible.
At this time, Zhang Feiyang's feet were exactly the same as when he didn't take out the cloth, there were still only dirt, stones, and some fallen bamboo leaves.
Zhang Feiyang's efforts just now were undoubtedly in vain.
Zhang Feiyang was not discouraged, smiled slightly, and immediately sat down, thinking of new methods while waiting for the next gust of wind to blow.
Because, when this gust of wind came, Zhang Feiyang was keenly aware of some water vapor.
There are apparently no rivers here.
So why is there water vapor?
Zhang Feiyang felt that it might have something to do with the depths of the bamboo forest, and it was very likely that there was a hot spring, or an ordinary water spring.
Otherwise, it can't be explained.
Really.
A day later, the same wind blew, and there was still very little moisture in it, and it would not be possible to detect it unless you looked closely.
Zhang Feiyang clearly captured the direction of the water vapor, and walked for most of the day, hoping to enter the deepest depths.
Who would have thought that it was smooth at first, and in the first three days, Zhang Feiyang clearly felt that the water vapor in the wind was getting heavier and heavier.
He judged that if he continued to walk like this for a few more days, he would go to the deepest depths, and the hope of meeting the monk of a dream should be close at hand.
But from the fourth day, the situation has changed unexpectedly.
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, the frequency of the wind is getting higher and higher, and the water vapor in the wind is naturally more and more as expected, but the direction of the wind is no longer fixed.
Frequent winds with moisture blow in the east, as well as in the west, and similar winds soon appeared in the south and north.
This made Zhang Feiyang's originally full confidence a little insufficient.
"Strange. How is this possible? There should only be one direction of wind. So it's windy everywhere I go, so how can I judge the right direction?"
After pondering for a long time, he found that he had no way to continue the depths without getting lost, so Zhang Feiyang had to stop for a while and not leave.
Because, he was worried that if he continued to walk, if he couldn't figure out the right direction, he would fall short, and he might even retreat directly to the entrance of the bamboo forest.
That's a big loss.
Based on such considerations, Zhang Feiyang naturally didn't dare to continue walking, so he simply meditated cross-legged and patiently thought about the countermeasures to leave here.
After all, this is obviously a protective method set up to trap outsiders who enter the depths, it may be a formation, or it may be a mechanism, all in all, no matter what it is, Zhang Feiyang only knows that it is impossible to be without flaws.
If he had encountered the current situation before, he would have been somewhat worried, and he would have lost some confidence, but he had just gone through a battle with the Golden Skin Tiger, and even the demon beasts with such perfect protection capabilities were defeated by him, if he no longer had the confidence to deal with these trapped people, it would really not be like Zhang Feiyang's style.
In this way, Zhang Feiyang fell into deep thought.
At this point, something unexpected happened.
Obviously, the purpose of meditating cross-legged was to think about how to walk out of this bamboo forest surrounded by strong winds and find the seclusion of a dream layman, but Zhang Feiyang sat and sat down, sleepy.
Zhang Feiyang was slightly stunned, took a deep breath, tried to beat his spirit, opened his eyes, and thought about countermeasures.
Unexpectedly, instead of alleviating the sleepiness, it became heavier and heavier.
Looking up, the bamboos in all directions seemed to begin to shake violently up and down, left and right, making his eyelids fight up and down, and his spirit became more and more sluggish.
"Oh no! Putting outsiders to sleep is supposed to be a defense mechanism as well. Don't fall asleep!"
Zhang Feiyang suddenly realized that something was wrong, and quickly took another breath, stood up, and didn't care which direction was correct, he just walked away, and wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
It's a pity that he walked faster, but the speed at which his sleepiness intensified was even faster.
Zhang Feiyang only took two steps, and when he landed, a flood of sleepiness had already rushed into his mind and engulfed him.
Zhang Feiyang slammed, closed his eyes, and fell heavily to the ground, falling into a deep sleep.
He had a dream.
In his dream, a monk with an unclear face was chasing after him.
This person has a number of magic weapons on his body, such as the Thunder Umbrella, the Spirit Breaking Rod, and the Wind Thunder Sword, etc.
But maybe it was because Zhang Feiyang escaped too fast, the man chased for a long time and couldn't close the distance with Zhang Feiyang, suddenly, with a big hand, he took out a magic weapon like a nail, Cold Ice Thorn, and threw it towards Zhang Feiyang.
These ice thorns spread out in the air, like an overwhelming rain, making Zhang Feiyang unavoidable.
In the end, Zhang Feiyang's left arm, back, and right leg were pierced, and his whole body trembled slightly, and the whole person actually froze at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Zhang Feiyang struggled violently and took out all kinds of things from his arms to fight, but there was nothing he could do.
In desperation, he had no choice but to take out the small stove, drop a drop of blood, and let his body lean against the furnace mountain, trying to fight against the ice surface with the high temperature of the small stove.
Who would have thought that it would be useless.
Zhang Feiyang turned into a fresh ice sculpture in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the pursuer stopped, laughed triumphantly, and a ray of sunlight suddenly spilled down from the sky, and the facial features of this person's face were clearly distinguished, and it turned out to be Dongfang Bai.
Zhang Feiyang screamed, suddenly woke up from his sleep, looked around or so, and saw that there were bamboo forests on all sides, it turned out that everything just now was just a dream, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after discovering that the strong wind in all directions still existed, Zhang Feiyang quickly frowned again, worried about not knowing how to get out of here.
At the same time, there was also a new question that became heavier and heavier in his heart, and gradually turned into a hidden worry similar to a knot in his heart.
"Even if I can successfully break through the bottleneck and reach the realm of the foundation building period, I'm afraid I still won't be Dongfang Bai's opponent. His most powerful magic weapon is still the ice thorn that is numerous and difficult to deal with. Anyway, at least I'm going to have to find a way to stop them from freezing my body, and with so many ice spikes, it's impossible to avoid them completely. ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang pondered for a moment, stood up, walked around twice in place, and when he stopped, his heart moved, and he thought of a place, Firefox Mountain.
