Chapter Ninety-Two: When the Phantom Appears
"Wang~"
The little yellow dog rushed over from afar, as fast as the wind, and came to Dugu Hexuan's side in the blink of an eye. Dugu Hexuan picked it up, and saw that it looked flustered, as if it had been greatly stimulated, and his heart was restless. So, I quickly thought of my fellow travelers. In a hurry, he picked up the holy sword and walked quickly.
Nine days ago, the plains and wilderness of the land have now become uneven and potholes. More than 100 people seemed to have fallen into evil, scattered everywhere, bleeding and unconscious. A cow and a sheep were huddled in a deep pit, as if they were holding their breath by something.
Dugu Hexuan checked them one by one and found that Qiu Yu and the others had just fainted, and they were not worried about their lives. The nervous heart quickly calmed down. After rescuing a few people, assign some elixirs to everyone to save people at the same time. He came to the deep pit where the cattle and sheep were.
Xindao: Why does it seem to be a method of imprisoning? What kind of power has appeared here that can imprison the Haotian Iron Ox? If even this cow can't escape, how can these mortals be free from the risk of their lives?
After a while, Wang Lin reported and said, "Senior brother, there are two people missing, Huang Shu and Gan Dan." β
"They're here!" Dugu Hexuan pondered for a while, put down the holy sword, grabbed the horns of the ox with both hands, and pulled it outward. The green bull roared angrily, and rushed with the momentum, as if breaking free from the shackles of powerful power and rushing out of the deep pit. The big gray sheep let out a long roar, jumped up, and jumped out of the deep pit.
"Coax~", "Squeak~"
Little Porco, Little Golden Monkey and a few other little guys jumped out of the pit happily. However, Huang Shu, Gan Dan, and Xiao Maple Ye all fainted, but only the girl in Huang Chu's arms was not affected in the slightest, and looked around with a pair of bright big eyes.
Dugu Hexuan jumped into the deep pit and searched carefully, but he didn't see anything special. Huang Chu and Gan Dan only fainted, and Xiao Fengye's situation seemed to be much more complicated. The most obvious point is that the little maple leaf has once again suffered excessive blood loss.
But where did his blood go?
After rescuing Huang and Gan, Dugu Hexuan learned that it turned out that during the night six days ago, a phantom shadow floated out of the three-color fog pillar. The phantom, like a dragon without claws, like a bird without wings, is overwhelming, enveloping a radius of 100 zhang. After the phantom, no one knows what happened here. Probably, it was the first thing Dugu Hexuan saw when he came here.
Huang Shu recalled: When the phantom appeared, he and Gan Dan happened to be the closest to the big green cow and the big gray sheep. But the little red pig is far away.
Gan Dan shook his head and said, "I have the impression that a powerful force seems to have emanated from the ground and attacked the big green bull...... I always felt like a big frog was doing something.
Dugu Hexuan didn't ask everyone, but said calmly: It's good to be alive. As for the secrets here, there will be a day when they will be revealed. But in his heart, he wondered: Gan Dan is smart and alert, and his feeling is probably not wrong. In this mysterious otherworldly land, there are really too many mysterious and strange things happening. If you stop and look into it, it is obviously pointless.
"Second brother, you take someone to the stone peak on the left. Dugu Hexuan pointed ahead and said, "I'll go to the one on the right." Today, it is necessary to meet in the middle of the "shuangfeng". β
"Boom~"
As soon as the words fell, there was a roar of landslides and earth cracks in front of me. Under the gaze of everyone, the two stone peaks collapsed with a bang, the rubble flew wildly, and the earth shook and shook violently. It seems to have moved the root of the earth and the pillar of heaven.
In an instant, the earth between the two pinnacles was torn apart, forming a bottomless abyss. The abyss is a hundred miles apart, and a sea of fireflies is generated within it. Even from a distance of a hundred feet, the powerful suction emitted from the abyss made it difficult for all the Terran monks to resist.
This road was completely cut off again.
Qiu Yu said in a deep voice: "Senior brother, there is such a big movement here, is it possible that the Beacon City side is not aware of it?"
"Of course, otherwise, the existence of the Black Evil and the Green Corridor will become redundant!" Dugu Hexuan smiled coldly in his heart, and said secretly: What a Immortal Alliance, he knew some details of the other world, but he was silent.
Dugu Hexuan commanded: "Exit this depression and find a new way forward." β
Gan Dan quietly approached and said in a low voice: "Big brother, have you noticed that the depression and trench here have a very familiar feeling?"
"It's similar on the surface, but it's completely different. Dugu Hexuan knew what Gan Dan wanted to say, but he had already discovered the clue and determined that this was just an ordinary depression, completely different from the depression and trench on the green soil.
The crowd quickly exited the depression and returned to the flat ground. Looking back, the sky above the abyss is already foggy, and in the depths of the fog, there is faint red, white and black smoke, winding and circling, drifting leisurely.
Dugu Hexuan commanded everyone, in the horizontal hundreds, evenly placed boulders, which were engraved with the words "the future is dangerous, detour".
On that day, the group chose to march to the right of the abyss.
Far away from the phantom abyss, more than 100 miles ahead, the landform is gradually strange.
A mountain on the left runs north-south, and a mountain on the right is diagonally on it, and the mountain is facing southeast. A piece of black scorched earth in front and a green meadow in the back, where the two fields meet, there are green shoots hidden under the dead grass. When you encounter a small stream, it turns from low to high, and it is difficult to form a rushing trend.
It can really be said: the mountains are impermanent, the land is unnormal, and the water flows directionlessly.
In the mountains and wilderness, the little black wolf and the little white fox are obviously much more active. The little black wolf ran to the creek and sniffed, howled, and rushed into the valley. The little white fox looked around for a moment, and then honestly returned to his master.
Qiu Yu said: "Senior brother, there is nothing abnormal here, why did the black wolf issue a warning?"
"Maybe I smell blood!" Dugu Hexuan was a little uncertain, and said in a deep voice: "Cheer up, we have to cross this sloping valley as quickly as possible." Second, you open the way in front, and I'll break the back. β
Everyone entered the valley and quickly retreated, all looking stupid, looking at each other and smiling bitterly.
Because the blood in the valley is extremely strong, but it cannot be smelled outside the valley. This strange and mysterious thing, although it is not the first time I have seen it, but when I see it again, it is still extremely nervous.
"What blood?"
"Human blood!" Shen Shi replied calmly, "Senior brother, someone came here before us, and most of them are afraid of unforeseen disasters. β
"No way! unless someone comes to die!"
Dugu Hexuan didn't stop, and quickly walked into the valley, and suddenly there was a strong smell of blood. There are many strange stones in the slope valley, and there are a lot of cyan rattans, like green snakes coiled on the strange stones. After searching for a distance, Dugu Hexuan was also a little confused.
There was no corpse, only blood.
After a long time, Dugu Hexuan felt that something was wrong, and immediately ordered everyone to withdraw from the valley. Summoned Pang Si to come closer and asked, "Sixth, can you find anything?"
Pang Si was silent, and the clansmen behind him also had mysterious expressions, and after a while, Pang Si said: "Senior brother, it's not quite like that." There is a story among my snake clan. In ancient times, the ancestors of the snake clan tamed the most poisonous and ferocious giant snake between heaven and earth, and were not allowed to feed on their own flesh and blood. β
"Blood food?"
"Hmm!" Pang Si said in a low voice, "Senior brother, it's just a little bit like that." β
"Sixth, your fate has appeared! Go into the valley, kill it, and turn it into your chance!" Dugu Hexuan patted Pang Si's shoulder and said, "We are waiting for you in front." β
Pang Si pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, I'm afraid!"
"If you don't force yourself once, how can you know how much potential you have?" Dugu Hexuan's eyes were blazing, he glanced at everyone, and said angrily: "From now on, I hope that the word 'fear' will not come out of the mouths of people here." β
Pang Si saw that Dugu Hexuan was very resolute and took people away, and took a detour, everyone got farther and farther away, and he became more and more afraid. But when I thought of Dugu Hexuan, I had all kinds of strange feelings in my heart.
If a person is only once in a dangerous situation of nine deaths, or even ten deaths, and can escape with his whole body, it can still be said to be lucky. But what about two, three, four, or even more times? Even if it is luck every time, if there is no corresponding strength to control it, how can it resolve the danger and calamity? No matter how many opportunities there are, if there is no corresponding strength to bear it, will it not be eaten up and die?
After hesitating again and again, he knew that the senior brother was not a hard-hearted person, but he was really ruthless, and he was even more ruthless than the demon. What's more, Pang Si is not stupid, knowing that this is the senior brother's intention to cultivate himself.
Xindao: In this world, the best person for himself, except for his mother, is the elder brother. How can I let them down?
Pang Si clenched the spirit sword in his hand and walked towards the sloping valley. I didn't go far, and the sweat was already soaking through my clothes. In a trance, the green vines were like living green snakes, confiding in themselves the core of the double-pronged snake, showing off their might.
The next moment, the spirit sword came out of its sheath, cutting off the thick green vines that stood in front of him, and black juice splashed out.
Pang Si dipped his finger a little, sniffed it slightly, and said softly: It's not like snake venom, it's better than snake venom. Could it be that this is where the relics of the flood are bred?
"Po~"
Suddenly, there was a soft, clear voice in my ears. Pang Si followed the sound, but saw that there were black boulders densely, and a faint mist appeared on the boulders. Roared softly in his heart, "Snake Nest"?
Pang Si's first reaction was to quickly retreat a few feet. When the snake nest appears, most of them are guarded by female snakes who have just opened their minds, and the female snakes guarding the nest are probably one of the most ferocious existences in the demon beast world.
Pang Si sweated like rain, and the beads of sweat blurred his vision, and he didn't notice it. In his heart, he thought about it: whether to advance or retreat, half of life and death. But what if I retreat? Will I still have the day to get ahead? What is the difference between that and death?
The steel teeth bited, pinched the sweat on the placket, and walked resolutely towards the black stone thicket. When he was more than a foot away from the black stone bush, he involuntarily stopped. A picture flashed in his mind, Dugu Hexuan had hesitated under the three-color fog pillar, but in the end he still took that step.
I cried out in my heart: Am I really worse than anyone?
"Choking~"
The spirit sword was sheathed, the spirit was full of energy, his eyes were like a torch, and he took a steady step and walked into the black stone thicket. Suddenly, two blinding blue lights appeared in sight. Following the blue light, a small snake with a dark green body, dying, curled up in the gap between two large black stones, only the light of its eyes can still shine with the sun and the moon. Three feet away from it, three large black stones were stacked on top of each other for a huge black snake egg shell. The crack in it seems to have just cracked.
Pang Si quickly understood that it was the last trace of strength that the snake egg struggled with, absorbing the power of nearby blood to hatch the baby snake. As a result, the little green snake does not have enough strength to survive.
Thinking about this, he had no worries, held the little green snake with both hands, cut the blood vessels in his wrist, and carefully brought the snake's head closer. The little green snake smelled blood, and tried to spit out the snake core and pierce the blood vessels. Pang Si's face twitched, but he smiled knowingly.
After the little green snake is full, it retracts the snake core, opens its mouth, and makes a crisp sound of "poo".
Pang Si suddenly felt that there was a force feeding back to him, and he quickly melted into his body and disappeared. Whispered to himself: The story of the clan rΓ©n liΓΊ turned out to be the truth?
When he was about to leave, he suddenly said "Huh" and shouted softly: Where is the little black wolf?
