Chapter 2: Yellow Mountain, the Mystery of Life (Part II)
After all, Yao Hailei has read too many novels, for fear that there is still a soul in that skeleton, what if he gets close and is taken away by that soul.
However, he stood in the distance for a long time, and when he saw that there was no movement, he calmed down and stepped forward slowly.
When he walked up to the skeleton, there was still no movement on the skeleton, and there was no soul in it.
Thinking of this, Yao Hailei also breathed a sigh of relief, half-squatted down, and looked at the two skeletons.
He wasn't a professional anatomist, so he didn't see anything wrong with it after watching it for a long time. But when he looked at the silver-white long sword, he frowned slightly, and couldn't help but reach out and hold the hilt of the sword.
The moment he held the hilt of the sword, he felt a warm breath flowing into his body along the hilt of the sword, and he was originally slightly hungry, but at this moment, for some reason, he was no longer hungry.
With a slight force, he pulled the long sword out of the bone, which was about a meter long and extremely thin and narrow.
He tried to wave it, but found that the sword was also extremely light, he groaned for a while, looked at the skeleton, bowed, and said with a smile: "Hello, senior, you can't use this sword anyway, just give it to me, don't you speak?"
Yao Hailei said a few words with a smile, and wanted to dig a pit to bury the two bones, but he was busy for a long time, but he only dug a small hole, and at this moment, he was already tired and out of breath.
In desperation, Yao Hailei had to stand up with his sword, and said helplessly: "Senior, I'm sorry, when the junior succeeds in his studies in the future, I will come back and bury you!" With that, he bowed three times to the skeleton, turned around and walked into the distance.
Along the way, he did not see any more bones, all the same as at the beginning, surrounded by trees, towering into the clouds, and the air was full of enticing fragrances.
However, after all, he was still carrying a sword, although it was not too heavy, but he had been carrying the sword for so long, and he had been busy for a long time before, and he had begun to breathe at this moment.
As he walked, he suddenly saw what seemed to be a green light flickering in the distance, and he was stunned and hesitated for a moment, but finally walked forward with his sword.
When he walked out of a few dozen meters, he suddenly felt that the surrounding trees were thinning for a moment, and when he looked around, he realized that he had actually walked into a clearing.
The edge of this clearing is densely surrounded, the shape of the whole clearing can be regarded as a circle, there is verdant green grass everywhere, and in the center of this clearing, a giant tree with a height of more than fifty meters stands impressively.
There was not a single green leaf on this giant tree, but on the thick trunk and branches, there was a hazy green light.
These green lights appear and disappear from time to time, and constantly condense the shapes of various leaves, needles, flat leaves, and various shapes appear from time to time, which is very beautiful.
When Yao Hailei walked into this clearing, he felt that there was an incomparably gentle atmosphere in the air of this clearing.
After walking for so long, I have begun to feel a little tired, but breathing the air here, those tiredness actually dissipated little by little.
Just as Yao Hailei was standing in place, thinking silently, a low hissing sound suddenly sounded in the distance.
Immediately, Yao Hailei felt the ground shake wildly, as if some fierce beast was galloping in the distance, and listening to the sound, it seemed that it was still rushing towards him.
When has Yao Hailei seen such a situation, although his heart is much firmer than ordinary people, but after all, he is just a student, and he immediately stood in place.
After about seven or eight seconds, I saw several trees on one side of the clearing suddenly break off, and then a huge silvery* head rushed out from that side and plunged headlong to the ground.
Yao Hailei took a closer look, and saw that this scorpion was the size of three or four black bears, at least one meter tall, and the body was even longer and terrifying, his eyes flashed with purple evil light, and the poisonous hook behind him was even more blooming with pale green poisonous light, which was terrifying.
"Oh my God, such a big scorpion...... Obediently, if this is found out by those professors and scholars in the city, they will not be excited......"
Yao Hailei murmured secretly in his heart, and slowly retreated back before the scorpion found him.
It's just that he didn't want him to retreat like this, and the blade of the long sword in his hand slanted, just reflecting a stream of green light into the scorpion's eyes, and the scorpion was frightened, and suddenly roared and looked sideways.
When he saw Yao Hailei, the scorpion suddenly burst out with a roar, and its huge body jumped up like a hurricane and rushed towards Yao Hailei.
At the moment when the scorpion roared, Yao Hailei only felt that an invisible and qualitative thing suddenly enveloped his body, this thing was invisible and invisible, but it was like a substance, just like the momentum of legend.
Seeing the scorpion pounce, he turned around and wanted to run, but as soon as the momentum was lightly pressed, he felt that his whole body was weak, and he was caught by a tree root in a trance, and with a plop, he fell directly to the ground.
It's also thanks to him that he fell down so directly, and directly dodged the scorpion's pounce. The scorpion swooped over his head, and with a bang, it smashed many trees.
Taking advantage of the slight thinning of the things pressing on his body, Yao Hailei suddenly turned over and got up, and hurriedly fled to the other side. But at this moment, he panicked, but forgot that he still carried a sword in his hand, if he escaped, it would be much more troublesome to carry the sword.
He had barely run seven or eight steps when he felt the wind whistling behind him, as if something was coming at his back.
Yao Hailei gritted his teeth slightly, clenched the hilt of the sword with both hands, kept under his feet, and his upper body was directly reversed back, and a sword was slashed out.
With a choking sound, Yao Hailei's tiger mouth cracked, and the sword flew out directly, but it also blocked the scorpion's poisonous hook.
Yao Hailei's hands burst out with blood, and under the severe pain, he could barely control his hands. He hurriedly looked up, and saw the scorpion crawling towards him with a fierce light in his eyes, and the poisonous hook behind it flashed with a green demon light.
Yao Hailei knew very well that the poison on the tail hook was definitely highly poisonous, a poison that could kill him instantly.
However, the critical situation at this moment made him calm down, and he didn't care about the severe pain in his hands for a while, and as soon as he supported the ground with his elbow, the whole person turned around and rushed towards the long sword.
When the scorpion saw that Yao Hailei still dared to escape, he was immediately furious, and his huge body charged up like a tank. At this moment, it has been aroused to be ferocious, and it does not use scorpion pincers and tail hooks, but uses its mouth to bite Yao Hailei directly to death.
As soon as Yao Hailei ran to the long sword, he heard the surging wind behind him, and he didn't care about the severe pain in his hands, he hurriedly grabbed the hilt of the sword, and rushed forward a few steps with instinct, while the long sword reversed and stabbed out from under the ribs towards the back.
only heard a click, the scorpion roared into the sky, roaring again and again, it turned out that Yao Hailei had previously stabbed out the sword, and it happened to pierce the giant scorpion's mouth with a sword.
However, with such a stab, the scorpion blood also splattered out directly, sprinkling Yao Hailei's body. In an instant, Yao Hailei felt hot all over, as if he was entangled in flames in an instant.
This scorpion blood is extremely poisonous, capable of corroding everything, Yao Hailei is only a mortal in the flesh, but in a few seconds, the place where the scorpion blood is sprayed has been rapidly corroded.
Under the severe pain, the scorpion was furious, and with a flick of the tail hook, it penetrated directly through Yao Hailei's chest, and with a click, he lifted him upside down and flew out.
The giant scorpion threw Yao Hailei out of the air, and was about to drive the double pincers to pull out the long sword in his mouth, when suddenly, a large stream of silver-white light appeared on the long sword.
This light is soft and warm, and it is extremely auspicious, but at this moment, this light is like a sword and spear, directly penetrating the body of the giant scorpion.
The giant scorpion howled miserably, and its huge body kept rolling, smashing the surrounding trees, but no matter how it struggled, the silver light never dissipated, and frantically impacted its body.
Finally, with a terrible roar, the giant scorpion's eyes lost concentration and fell directly to the ground. At the moment of its death, the light of the long sword gradually dimmed, and finally cracked and shattered into a cloud of silver sand.
Yao Hailei only felt that his body was as hot as fire, and suddenly, he felt a wind and howling cyclone, bang, as if he had hit something, his eyes were dark, and he passed out directly.
Within two or three seconds of his coma, the scorpion venom had already corroded his internal organs, and finally, he was completely killed by the scorpion venom.
However, at the moment of his death, a violent wind suddenly blew inexplicably in the entire valley, this wind was as sharp as a sword, but strangely, those trees did not seem to be blown by the wind at all, and not even the leaves trembled in the slightest.
Suddenly, the countless branches of the towering giant tree in the center of the clearing shook in unison, and endless emerald green light slowly scattered, like stars, covering the bodies of Yao Hailei and the giant scorpion.
In an instant, two hazy phantoms rose from the corpses of Yao Hailei and the giant scorpion, were pulled by the green light, and quickly sank into the body of the giant tree.
