Chapter Seventy-Six: Travel
Chen Zhang stood up from the ground, "I was lucky that I wasn't eaten last night." Find a safe place first. ”
Meng Xiwen glanced at Chen Zhang, "I'm afraid that we are in the territory of a large spirit beast, so no other spirit beast dares to set foot in it." ”
"Yes. Be careful not to alarm them. ”
"Gu Zhong. Gu Shu shouted.
The Xuanshou Sect disciple who was standing behind Gu Shu walked out, "Yes." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Zhongfei borrowed strength between several trees, and flew up to the treetops in a blink of an eye.
The movements are light and silent.
Gu Shu spoke slowly, as if explaining to the rest of the people, "Gu Zhong is quite experienced in exploration. ”
Skills, cultivation, are very good, Gu Zhongneng has followed, and he should also be a disciple of Xuanshou Sect. Such a person does look like a servant in front of Gu Shu.
Meng Xiwen secretly guessed Gu Shu's identity.
Gu Zhong probed from a high place, his line of sight was not easy to be blocked, and he could determine his position and find the exit faster.
However, there is a dense forest to obscure the line of sight, and it is often impossible to pay attention to the direction of the spirit beasts under the dense forest.
Therefore, Meng Xiwen over there did not wait all the time, and bent down to investigate the traces on the ground.
Seeing this, the rest of the people all followed Meng Xiwen's example and probed the surroundings.
There are two main ways to determine the whereabouts of spirit animals. One is to directly judge through some traces of the survival of spirit animals, and the other is to judge indirectly through the growth of spirit plants in the environment.
Spirit beasts, like monks, can gather spiritual energy near them during their actions to promote the growth of spiritual plants. Therefore, where spiritual plants flourish, there are often spiritual beasts.
In addition, different spirit beasts have different attributes, and the spirit plants they nourish are also different. If the type of spirit plant is determined, the corresponding spirit beast can often be found.
In addition, if you find a spirit plant that is old, you should also pay attention to the detour. Because the spirit plant that has grown for many years is not only useful for human monks, but also precious to spirit beasts. Often, there has been a battle between spirit beasts, and there are already strong spirit beasts guarding nearby.
A moment later, Gu Zhong fluttered down from the treetops, and Meng Xiwen's exploration of several people also came to an end.
Gu Zhong clenched his fists at Gu Shu, "As far as the eye can see, the branches are luxuriant, it should be in the depths of the dense forest, just from what I can see now, I can't find which direction is the exit." Judging by the sound, the south side is noisy, and there are many movements of spirit beasts passing through, and the north side is relatively quiet. ”
Meng Xiwen and the others also returned to the distance, "Sleep wind grass." ”
"Sleeping windweed. ”
"Same. ”
"Me too. ”
Gu Zhong received the news and probed around again, "Sleeping wind weeds, there are also a large number of moisture-loving plants, and there is plenty of moisture vapor in the air. I'm afraid that Meng Xiwen's speculation just now is right, there may be a territory of the Cloud Devouring Beast here. ”
Several of the people here obviously knew what the Cloud Eater meant.
The Cloud Swallower feeds on plants and trees, but it is timid by nature, easy to live in groups, fast in action, and extremely territorial in its sense of territory.
Under normal circumstances, it is safe to encounter a large group of Cloud Swallowers, as they tend not to actively attack their opponents.
However, if you encounter a lone Cloud Swallower in the wild, you must remember to reduce your sense of presence as much as possible, and never scare the Cloud Swallowing Beast.
Because the Cloud Swallowing Beast was a little frightened, it began to attack wildly, throwing all its attack methods.
Then quickly escape while the enemy is not discovered, and then lead the other Cloud Swallowing Beasts back to take revenge.
"There are too many people, so let's quit the territory of the Cloud Swallowing Beast first. Gu Zhong concluded.
If only one or two people landed here, Gu Zhong would definitely suggest that they move within the territory of the Cloud Devouring Beast.
But now that so many people are gathered here, if they are discovered by the Cloud Swallowing Beast, with the character of the Cloud Swallowing Beast, they will definitely suffer a crazy attack.
"Southside. Gu Shu opened his mouth.
The Cloud Eater will never allow many animals to exist in its territory. Then, since there is a noise in the south, it is most likely in the direction of its territory
Qingyuan and the others also had the same idea.
Gu Zhong received the news and began to lead the people towards the south.
Chen Zhang suddenly spoke, "Meng Xiwen, the two of us are slightly higher in cultivation, and we will stay behind it." The toxins of their cloud potatoes have not been dispersed, and it is safer to walk in the middle. ”
Of course, Meng Xiwen had no objections, and walked towards the end of the team when he heard the words.
Wu Zheng looked at the two, a girl and a small man, who didn't make a sound, but stood in front of Meng Xiwen.
Over there, Fang Zhi'er also hesitated.
Look at the position of the three people in Qingyuan, and then look at Gu Zhong in front of Gu Shu. looked back and forth, and still followed behind Gu Shu.
Several people walked forward in formation for a while, and gradually Meng Xiwen could also hear the sound in the distance.
Gu Zhong stopped at this time, and the entire team also stopped.
Gu Shu knocked on the trunk of the tree a few times, then climbed up the branch and looked down.
After a while, Gu Zhong came down from the tree with a solemn face, "The front is the source of the sound. It seems that many spirit beasts have gathered together, and the overall level does not seem to be high. It's just that there are too many of them, and if they are besieged, I'm afraid. ”
Gu Zhong paused and continued, "I still hear the sound of water in the south. ”
The sound of water means that there is a high probability of a river there. Walk to the river and go down the river to find your way out.
This news made several people who were gradually tired show excitement on their faces, and maybe, they can leave immediately.
So the question now is how to pass past the spirit beasts gathered in front of you.
Gu Shu looked at Gu Zhong.
Gu Zhong nodded, but his gaze swept over the rest of the people, and he shook his head again, "I can only bring one person over." ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the air changed suddenly.
Yu Qing, Gu Shu has only known a few people for a few days, Yu Li, in such an environment, living is the most important thing.
Chen Zhang suddenly opened his mouth, "You can go out first and report to the real person to save us." ”
But as soon as the words fell, Qingyuan and the others held their breath. In the dense forest, the longer you stay, the greater the danger, that is, with Gu Zhong here, you can always avoid potential dangers.
If Gu Zhong took Gu Shu to leave first, I am afraid that even if he came back with a real person, a few people might not be safe.
Gu Shu glanced at Chen Zhang, then looked away at Gu Zhong, "Is there any other way?"
Gu Zhong looked in the southeast direction, "Follow the edge of the Cloud Devouring Beast's territory to see if you can find a place to go around." ”
Bypassing the edge is obviously not a good option.
First of all, in the territory of the Cloud Swallowing Beast, it is possible to encounter a single Cloud Swallowing Beast patrolling at any time.
Plus, even if you're lucky enough not to be discovered by the Cloud Eater. But after walking for so long, several people gradually lost their physical strength, and they did not have enough reserves on their bodies. A little more time, a little more physical energy, will be more dangerous.
Gu Shu looked at the southeast direction for a long time, "Let's take a detour." ”
There were a few clear exhalations in the air, and several people from Qingyuan thanked Gu Shu one after another.
Gu Shu bowed slightly, "The matter started because of me." ”
