Chapter 35: Entrapment

Everyone followed the old medicine and walked along the "root system" of the Sheng'an tree. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoBecause this section of the road is so long and the roots are so thin, everyone almost thought they were walking on a suspended single-plank bridge.

As the sun rises, the direction of the wind gradually changes. The earth absorbs the heat, and the air on both sides of the "Great Rift Valley" heats up rapidly, expands and rises, and the air above the rift is squeezed down. The fierce downward wind pressed on everyone, and the branches shook a little.

Fortunately, everyone is above the passing line, and they are not afraid of falling.

"I haven't experienced this feeling of being groundless since I laid the foundation. Halfway through, Zhu Jiamei complained in a low voice.

For the Terrans, this feeling is not very comfortable after all.

Fortunately, they didn't have to go long.

After walking for about three or four hours, everyone finally saw their destination.

It was a small stone attached to this branch, about four feet in length, width and height, about the size of a house, with green grass on it, and an old tree and a sapling. Combined with the clouds and fog that are limited by air pressure, it has the appearance of a "fairyland in the clouds".

The Great Medicine Witch sat down on the stone and said, "Rest for a while, and then adjust your state, and let's start catching the Heavenly Beast." ā€

"Ruhr" is a unit of time for the Wu people, which is equivalent to about twenty minutes.

In response, there was a sparse cheer.

Tatsukaze looked back in the direction he had just come. As the sun gradually rises, the cliff over there has already shown most of its appearance. He was amazed to find that this cliff seemed to be really wide, and the height that had been revealed alone surpassed all the mountain ranges in Shenzhou. There are even some unique ecosystems formed on the cliffs, and there are some creatures that have never been seen on them.

The crowd dispersed and quickly surveyed the place, and soon understood everything about it.

In the very center of this "hanging island", there is a stone pit, the radius is about one zhang, the stone pit is only a few feet deep, very shallow, but the surface is very smooth, even if the wind and sun are blowing, it only accumulates a layer of floating dust. In the center of the pit is a small wellhead, which is very small. A disciple of Tianlingling lit a talisman seal and threw it in, and soon fell to the bottom - it seemed that this small well was still transparent up and down.

And below, Ye Moli soon made an even more astonishing discovery.

Under this floating island, there are four rune arrays, each of which is a hollow three-dimensional rune, and between the four rune arrays, there are metal chains connected to each other. And on these metal chains, there are many large and small complex knots.

At first glance, it seems that the stone is based on the root system of the Saint Ann Tree, but in fact, it is only the root system of the Saint Ann Tree that passes through the rock.

"It's there to counteract gravity. Xue Bufan, who had studied the cultivation of the Wu clan, made a judgment after reading it: "And it's relatively old. The Wu runes I learned from the knots don't include this. ā€

Other than that, there are no more secrets about this rock. It's just an ordinary rock.

The grass on it is ordinary grass, and the trees are ordinary trees, neither of which is an extension of the Saint's Tree, nor is it the "operating terminal" that some monks imagine. It's just that under the nourishment of the spiritual power of the Saint's Tree, these plants and trees can grow well without so much water.

Xue Bufan carefully stroked the surrounding iron chains, and then shook his head. It's not a chain that records key historical information, it's really just a guardian circle.

By the time they had finished exploring, the old medicine witch was ready to begin. He complained slightly: "You children of the gods, why are you so rubbing?"

Fortunately, he also knew that the main force of this "hunting" was these "children of the gods", so he didn't complain too much.

After everyone was ready for battle, the Great Medicine Witch took out a small jar that he had treasured closely. This small jar is about the same size as the one that stores the holy ointment, but it is much smaller, and it is itself sealed in layers. While unlocking the seal with three hands, the Great Medicine Witch said, "This medicine is a demon's medicine, and it can attract heavenly beasts. If this thing is knocked over in the tribe, the beast will inevitably come, and then it will be devoid of grass. ā€

Seeing that everyone was unimpressed, Lachin seemed to be a little angry, and snorted: "This is not a joke. In my life, I have seen tribes disappear into heaven and earth because of such stupid things. ā€

"Attracting the ant clan...... In other words, is that drug actually a kind of excidentin?" Ai Qinglan guessed.

Chen Feng asked, "Great Medicine Witch, how do you make this medicine?"

"Collect what the beasts have eaten and soak it in a special oil. I don't know if it's because of the sagittal ridge, the big medicine witch's smile is gloomy and hideous: "The bottle in my hand was 'scraped' in that small village that was wiped out." ā€

Bosso was taken aback. He looked at the little bottle, and he couldn't imagine that it had such a terrible origin.

"It's about the meaning of 'here is food, come', right?" Moonfall Liuli comfortably found a branch to sit on, still intending to watch from the wall: "In the place where the ant clan has walked, it is normal to have this kind of spiritual rhinocerosin. ā€

"Eh......" Ai Qinglan looked at the bottle in the hand of the big medicine witch, as if she wanted to grab it and use it for herself. However, the next sentence of Moonfall Liuli dispelled her thoughts: "The spirit rhino used within the same ant colony is completely different from the spirit rhino used for other groups or individuals, it can be said that the spirit rhino within each ant clan is equivalent to the secret language within their own group." ā€

"What's more, this spirit rhino is not aimed at the human race at all, even if you inhale it, you won't get a little bit of it. ā€

After unsealing the five-layer rope net, the Great Medicine Witch carefully smeared the half-solidified grease from the bottle to the edge of the pit. The smell of this grease is very strong, with a sour odor similar to spoilage. Ai Qinglan covered her nose in disgust and complained: "This is also a 'big voice'." And the moon fell and smelled the air, and her face was a little strange: "I always feel that it is not the same......"

The paste used to preserve this reciprocal appears to be highly absorbent, and the surrounding humidity is high. Soon, the plaster began to melt and converge towards the "wellhead". The downward wind sends the smell down.

No wonder the Great Medicine Witch said that seduction should only be carried out during the day. This is the nature of the valley wind.

Xue Bufan whispered: "I'm getting more and more uneasy......"

According to his knowledge of the Wu tribe, the current Wu tribe obviously does not have the ability to establish this kind of floating island. In other words, the Wu built this place before civilization regressed.

And the wellhead in the middle shows that this is used to hunt ants.

Before the great degradation, the Wu people realized that they had to trap the ant tribe in the future?

When did the ant tribe come here, and what is the relationship with the Wu tribe?

After applying the "demon medicine", the Great Medicine Witch immediately washed his hands with a pungent plant juice. After that, he sprinkled some spice powder on himself. After doing all this, he began to beckon to the crowd: "Hurry up, hide under the island, and lock your breath." After a while, seven or eight heavenly beasts will come up. Wait until they start eating grass and trees, and then do it, and be sure to kill it with one hit. After killing them, immediately cut off the roots of the two legs between them, as well as the wood they had gnawed. These are the main ingredients of holy oil anointing and demonic medicine. Once you've collected these materials, leave here as fast as you can. ā€

Ai Qinglan smiled and hung beside the Great Medicine Witch and asked, "Old man, what if we don't kill with one blow?"

The Great Medicine Witch was silent for a moment and asked, "You gods have a way to leave, right?"

Xue Bufan and Chen Feng looked at each other, not knowing why he asked like this.

"If you don't kill with one hit, you can't go back. There was a hint of indifference in the voice of the Great Medicine Witch: "With just one face, the Heavenly Beast can mark you." If you are tagged, they will always find you wherever you are. ā€

Chen Feng shuddered: "I heard Bosso say that no one has obtained the holy oil anointing for a hundred years......

"We, along with the three nearby tribes, have tried a total of eleven times in the last 100 years. The Great Medicine Witch smiled: "Those eleven batches of people, none of them were able to kill with one blow. ā€

- None of them came back......

At this time, the moonfall glass claws were inserted into the soil, and then swung in front of the great medicine witch with a serious expression: "Let me confirm first, your village that was killed by the Heavenly Beast should have been destroyed a hundred years ago, right?" ā€

The old man was stunned for a moment, and nodded: "Oh, yes, it turns out that the gods even pay attention to this......?

"Let me ask you again, the demonic potions you used after that were all collected from the ruins of that village, right?"

The Great Medicine Witch nodded again, already having a bad premonition in his heart: "You mean ......"

"The last question, the strength of the single body of the Heavenly Beast is actually not strong, and the average tribe can fight a little bit when it encounters a small group of Heavenly Beasts, but sooner or later it will be overwhelmed by the number of Heavenly Beasts, right?"

The Great Medicine Witch nodded again.

Yueluo Liuli said: "Run...... This time the plan was abandoned. Don't joke with life. The reason I ......"

Halfway through the words, the moon fell and Liuli's face changed.

Ai Qinglan still hung on the roots of the tree, and said, "I don't think we can run." Ruri, explain. Even if you die, you have to be a ghost. ā€

"The one in his hand is probably not 'come, there is food here' Lingxisu at all, but 'hit hard' Lingxisu. When Moonfall Liuli spoke, she kept looking down: "If I guess correctly, that village still left traces of battle, and some of the Wu tribes in the Yudan period still worked together to kill a few ant clans. Those dying ant individuals released such elixirin, which was then made into ointment by them. ā€

This also explains why they have not received a single drop of new holy oil for a hundred years. (To be continued.) )
