Chapter 68: A Dream Like a Dream (5)

The sound of falling dirt came out, which was particularly noticeable in this quiet place.

A large, dusty hand reached out from the pit in the ground, grabbed the edge, and stretched itself out. A young man with a tired face, dressed in tattered clothes, crawled out of the hole, looking very struggling.

This young man is Siyi, who has been sent to the poles, biting the bamboo slip in his mouth, and returning to the ground with difficulty, and he doesn't know how much flesh he has broken. Back on the ground, Siyi did not stop, but picked up the package he had thrown aside, tied it back again, and carefully avoided the surrounding potholes all the way to the side of the leafy tree.

Slowly sat down, leaned against the huge shadow under the big tree, closed his eyes and pondered for a while, before gradually calming his thoughts, looking under the roots of the tree from time to time, and then with incredible eyes, he opened the bamboo slip again, looked at the words on it, and couldn't help but feel a burst of consternation, because the situation recorded from these ancient words is simply a fantasy.

This bamboo slip was used by the master to remember before his death, not a secret of exercise, at best, like a note, he recorded it until the last moment of the master's death. The tattered italics above read: "...... In the spring, everyone came here together...... Want to get a glimpse ....... This is the first few paragraphs of text, which roughly explains their intentions, and through these few words, Siyi also figured out a little.

These people are really as Siyi guessed, they are all characters with great magical powers, but most of their backgrounds are very low-key and obscure, only four of them are from famous families, and the rest of the seniors are all from various secluded and scattered cultivators. You must know that since Pangu opened the world, there are thousands of cultivators in this world, although there are many sects and families, but it does not mean that accomplished people must come from famous families, and there are also many talented and intelligent talents, who live in seclusion between the mountains and forests, do not like to show their heads, and the method of cultivation is also found in another way. When Siyi was young, I heard the elders often praise how good a certain Nanhai casual cultivation is, and how powerful a certain Beibing casual cultivation is, so although they don't show up, it doesn't mean that they have no achievements.

Among them, there should be a loose cultivator, as if he got something similar to a will, knowing the way to open a door to the land of the two poles, and being sure that he would not fall in that dangerous place, so people entrusted people, people looked for people, gathered a total of eleven friends with great powers, and came here to meet here, wanting to get something in this place where people in the world could not stop.

Sure enough, as they expected, after they came here after the beginning of spring, the spatial crack did fall on the barren grassland at their feet, and there was nothing abnormal, and everyone praised this friend's magical powers. Later, who knew that there was a little accident, and it was recorded on the bamboo slip as follows: "On the sixteenth day of travel, I suddenly felt very hungry in my belly...... Detect something different...... After the rectification, I checked and found that this place was strange and abnormal...... It can actually block the aura and nourish the body...... Need to eat and drink...... Si Yi has known this for a long time, and the brother mentioned it earlier.

After all, these seniors are all battle-hardened people, experienced, and have all the emergency supplies, including food, so they don't care, but the area of this grassland is really beyond imagination, and they have been flying day and night, and finally come to the day when the supplies are exhausted. The text is recorded: "Fly to the 170th day...... Finally the diet ran out...... But there is no way out...... After discussing it, it was decided to send a friend who was good at traveling far away...... We have entrusted him with all the food...... Hopefully he will find a way out. ”

It is clear from this passage that these seniors knew that there was not much food, so they gave most of the food to a friend who was good at escaping, and he went to explore the way ahead, while the others waited for news in place. But unexpectedly, this person never returned, and now, these seniors who are usually respected in the outside world can't sit still, this is a matter of life and death. They themselves were the first to start infighting. The text also wrote: "On the two hundred and thirty-first day, Huang Daoyou still has not returned...... The rest of the people who were waiting in place were anxious, and there were different opinions...... Some people speculate that this man is treacherous...... He has returned, and some say that this person has encountered obstacles......"

Seeing this, Siyi raised his eyebrows incredibly, this senior is really a senior, and he is really embarrassed to be able to stay here for more than 200 days. Then it reads, and it goes on to read: "On the two hundred and fortieth day, a figure returned from afar...... Everybody's happy...... No, it's not Huang Daoyou who returns...... But it was a big man......" wrote here, and the handwriting directly turned into a straight line, crossing the bamboo surface, obviously encountering some kind of change.

"Big shot?" Si Yi has been worried in his heart, this text description is simply amazing, this place is very dangerous, the world is afraid, how can you meet any big people? This is really strange. But the surprise is yet to come.

"As the world has heard...... Ruthless, harsh and harsh...... Though we resist with all our might...... In the end, he died...... When he was dying, Jiang Daoyou used the technique of transforming essence and blood...... Cover up your deeds, and hope that those who come after you will learn from us...... Don't move forward...... Remember, remember......" The last thing left behind was a faint black stain of water, which seemed to be a blood stain that had dripped before he died, which had been air-dried.

Now left to Siyi, obviously, two questions, one is what is left under this tree, no wonder this tree is so weird, it turned out to be created with the technique of "essence blood seed", it is indeed different from ordinary trees, it can grow without water and light, but this is not important, the important thing is that the "Jiang Daoyou" under the tree is to cover up something, and whether he wants to try to dig it out, in case there is something terrible, then his current mortal body will really poke the hornet's nest.

Another point, who is this mysterious big man? Why do you want to fight these people for some reason, and if you are going forward, will you also be killed by that "big man", just like the remains under your feet.

After thinking about it, Siyi finally gritted his teeth and found out what was under the tree, whether it was good or bad. If you take 10,000 steps back, no matter how bad it is, can it still be worse than the current situation of waiting for death? So as soon as I lost the package, I struggled to pick up the loess under the tree, no matter what it was, it was better than now.

As expected, the roots of the tree were hollow, and after a few strokes, the scorched earth was moved, and the two hands immediately increased their speed, and finally, in the soil, a wooden box was found. The wooden crate is made of "volcanic wood", which is very valuable, and it is estimated that it is the only thing that is intact now. There was no mechanism, it seemed that it was buried in a hurry, and the lid was opened directly, and it turned out to be a compass inside.

Siyi took it in his hand strangely, looked at it a few times, and knew the key, this compass is different from the ordinary, the pointer in the middle, does not point to the direction at all, and the seal text engraved on it is also awkward, but no matter how it turns, this pointer always points to a direction behind himself. What does this mean? Signal yourself to go there? Doesn't it mean that you haven't found a way out? Why do you have to go there yourself?

With this series of questions, Siyi stood up, picked up the package without hesitation, picked up the broken sword on the ground, and carved the two lines of words on the tree with difficulty: "Thousands of miles of barren grassland, thousands of underground frogs continue to live", and followed the direction indicated by the compass, across the large and small battlefield potholes, and walked into the distance. Why did you make a decision so quickly? Because the reason is obvious, what can you do if you don't go in this direction in this situation? A wry smile broke out at the corner of Siyi's mouth.

Time flowed slowly like this, maybe there would be no concept of time here at all, so he walked in the direction of the compass, and after eating the five hundred and thirty-one stings, Siyi finally walked out of this barren grassland.

When all the wild grass under his feet disappeared, Si Yi looked ahead dumbfounded, in front of him, there was a more difficult journey, after the wild grass disappeared, it was replaced by an endless volcano, the volcano rumbled, the sky became more gray here, and in the fragmented earth, the yellow magma flowed in the cracks. The nostrils were filled with all kinds of sulfur smells, and the irritating thoughts were nauseous for a while, and the temperature finally changed, becoming as hot as the scorching heat.

Si Yi looked at the front in surprise, if the barren grassland is better, what about this volcanic group? By feeling it, he knows that this place is full of dangers, and if he is not careful, his life will be in danger.

The pointer on the compass still pointed out a direction as always, Siyi tightly held the cane of the dead branch in his hand, stepped into it carefully, looked into the distance, and then looked back at the barren grassland behind him, and his determined look resurfaced again, he couldn't just give up, he had to keep going, go on......

Step by step, he took a careful step, poked the ground with a branch from time to time, for fear that something would happen, in this deafening fire mountain range, there was no lack of traces of life, scattered white bones, telling himself that here, it would be a world of the jungle.

Looking at a huge firstborn two-horned beast bone lying quietly on the ground in front of him, Siyi's eyes narrowed. Then he walked more carefully along the foot of the mountain, where the hot air was filled with a faint smell of blood-type killing, and it could become the belly of a savage beast at any time.

Under a boulder, Siyi carefully sat down to rest, panting. Suddenly, a drop of water fell on his face, Siyi touched it strangely, sniffed it with his nose, and then looked at the top of his head with eyes full of despair......
