Chapter 15: The Road Meets the Cunning Wolf Clan
The early morning mist fills the air, revealing a refreshing smell, and the soft morning light shines through the mist, making it another invigorating day.
On the school field on the top of the back mountain, the young people of the Niu clan slowly gathered as usual, but only Niu Dingtian and Niu Jiaojiao were missing.
If someone can cultivate the Heavenly Eye Vision, they will definitely be able to find the two figures in the mist, aren't they Niu Dingtian and Niu Jiaojiao? That's right, they are on a mission that needs to be kept secret, exploring the Red Blood Valley.
Early morning is the quietest time of the Great Wilderness, which is the dividing point between darkness and light, and it also separates many brute beasts with different habits. The dense primeval forest is filled with a heavy yin atmosphere, but at this moment it seems to have gradually fallen into a deep sleep.
There is no breathtaking roar of the beast, and there is no giant python that chooses people to devour, and even the smell of decay seems to have faded a lot. But as long as you calm down and listen, you will find that the Great Wilderness has not slept at all, but shows vitality in another form.
Not all beasts in the wilderness are huge, but there are usually many small and even inconspicuous small things, such as moths, fire ants, praying mantises, and other insects. Kun insects are naturally less intelligent, but their survival ability is more tenacious than that of powerful brute beasts, and the various ways to hurt people are even more unexpected.
Niu Dingtian had just come out of Funiu Mountain and was about to walk in the southwest direction, but was pulled by Niu Jiaojiao: "Hurry up and stop, you don't want to die?"
Niu Dingtian hurriedly stopped, and said with a puzzled expression: "What's the matter? I didn't find any danger?"
"Don't you think the great wilderness mountains and forests in the early morning are very strange, there are only insects, and even the weakest cloud rabbit can't see one?" Niu Jiaojiao took a yellow-skinned gourd from her waist, and then poured out two small blue-brown pills.
After this reminder, Niu Dingtian's curiosity was also aroused, and he said with great interest: "What is the reason? It seems that the clansmen never go out to hunt in the early morning, is it the same reason?"
"Don't you notice the mist that seems to be absent in the woods? This mist still scatters colorful light in the morning light? This mist looks no different from ordinary morning mist, but it is actually a miasma with a high degree of poison, and if you inhale too much, it is easy to breed diseases and become insane! Even the brutes are afraid of this miasma, and only the small insects are unaffected. Niu Jiaojiao handed the pill in her hand to Niu Dingtian and said: "This is a miasma removal pill specially refined by the priest, and holding it in your mouth can protect us from the effects of the miasma." ”
Niu Dingtian put the miasma removal pill into his mouth, and immediately felt a breath of green plum filling his mouth, which was quite good.
"Do you know how this poisonous miasma is formed?" Niu Dingtian asked, walking idly on the road.
"I have heard from the priests that the miasma in our area seems to be called a snake miasma. There are a lot of highly poisonous forest worms in the Qingping Daze where the rhinoceros clan is located, they are huge, they are entrenched in the water's edge all day long, and they like to breathe in a lot of poisonous fog in the early morning, and then drift everywhere with the wind. ”
"Is this kind of forest worm more poisonous than the giant wood vine viper?" Niu Dingtian suddenly felt like a blank sheet of paper, not understanding anything.
Niu Jiaojiao patiently explained: "The giant wood vine viper itself is highly poisonous, but the snake venom is released through its fangs. The forest snake itself is not poisonous, but it has to eat a lot of things every day, many of which will contain highly poisonous, and then after digesting and rotting in its stomach, the poisonous gas miasma will be sprayed out of its mouth by it, forming a poisonous mist. You see the brilliant golden light in the jungle shrubs, some of them are patches and patches, and the colorful ones are like the morning glow brocade, and those poisonous mist are called miasma. Once the miasma is inhaled, even Neidan and Yuan Shen will be difficult to resist, and even their lives will be in danger. ”
"Can the miasma removal pill in our mouth resist the miasma?"
"It is not possible to remove the miasma pill, although we don't have to be afraid of encountering brute beasts when we rush in the early morning, but we must be careful of the miasma mother, for the demon clan in the Great Wilderness Mountain Range, the monsters who died from the poisonous miasma are far more than the mouth of the brute beasts. Niu Jiaojiao carried the red tassel gun and flickered around in the forest, carefully avoiding the dreamlike glow.
Niu Dingtian also followed cautiously, although he felt that the Chaos Bell was completely capable of suppressing the poisonous miasma, but now was not the time to be exposed.
Since they didn't have to deliberately guard against brute beasts, Niu Dingtian and Niu Jiaojiao advanced very fast, although it was only a little more than an hour, they had already walked nearly a hundred miles to the southwest, which meant that they were only half the way away from the Red Blood Valley recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".
But as the sun rose high in the sky, the blazing sunlight had already steamed away the poisonous miasma in the forest, and many brute beasts also showed their shapes.
"Roaring ------"
A thunderous roar suddenly came out from the mountains and forests, and its sound was even more shocking than the roar of a tiger and a dragon.
Then there was a cheer of "oh oh", mixed with screams and screams, as if a group of people were hunting, and as if someone was seriously injured.
Niu Dingtian didn't want to make trouble, after all, investigating the Red Blood Valley was also a secret mission, and the fewer people who had seen them, the better.
Just as the two of them were about to leave, there was a sudden "whoosh", and a feather arrow "banged" on the giant tree in front of them, sinking into the trunk more than a foot deep, leaving only the white tail feathers to tremble.
Niu Dingtian's face was cold, if it wasn't for his quick reaction, the arrow would have pierced his body just now.
"Who is it?" Niu Dingtian shouted, and Niu Jiaojiao also clutched the red tassel gun and stood behind him, looking around.
"Boom!"
Another feather arrow galloped in, but after being vigilant, Niu Jiaojiao raised her hand and smashed the feather arrow with a shot, and the arrow collided with the tip of the spear and made a metallic trill. The metal arrow flew upside down under the shock, and the silver light flashed, and the "snort" completely sank into the trunk.
The giant trees were also shaken, and the leaves fell one after another.
"Huh?" a voice came from the depths of the dense forest, as if he couldn't believe what was in front of him, and even more so that an arrow with all his might could be cracked so easily.
Niu Dingtian's gaze was like a line, he had already noticed the direction of the arrow, coupled with the sound just now, he had already determined the location of the enemy in the shadows.
Niu Dingtian held the handle of the Kunwu knife in his right hand, and suddenly drew the knife, and the copper-colored blade was like a red practice, like a brilliant blood moon flying out.
Since he didn't have time to cultivate, and he didn't have time to absorb the blood essence of the wolf lizard beast, Niu Dingtian's cultivation still stayed in the Jiedan realm. However, he had already preliminarily refined the Kunwu Red Bronze Knife, and the bonus given to him by the artifact did not seem to be to be underestimated.
"Click!"
The blood-colored arc flashed, and the towering giant tree was instantly split in half. The section was flat, and with a bang, the huge canopy weighing thousands of catties fell to the ground, and the earth and rocks flew and the dust and mist were filled.
The giant tree was split open, and the view could not be obstructed, and a group of thieves and rat-eyed people in the distance were in a petrified state. What a powerful force this is? A round of blood moon appeared, directly cutting down such a huge piece of wood as hard as iron, it was really shocking!
Even Niu Jiaojiao was shocked, it was not surprising that she could use such a powerful move with her cultivation of the Divine Realm, but it was a little shocking in Niu Dingtian's hands, could it be that the artifact was so powerful?
In fact, the blow just now was the result of many reasons, in addition to the power of the Kunwu Red Bronze Knife, there was also the credit of the special cultivation method of burning the grass and beating the ding. Using the dantian as a hammer forging furnace, Niu Dingtian's inner dan has also become extremely tough, and the power contained in it is also more powerful.
In addition, his own divine thoughts are stronger than ordinary people, so his true cultivation is definitely not inferior to the Yuan Infant Realm, and it is normal to be able to cause such destructive power.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Niu Dingtian stared at the group of uninvited guests, and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you, why are you attacking us?"
Niu Jiaojiao whispered in his ear: "Those people have brown hair on their cheeks, they look like people from the Cunning Wolf Clan!"
As if to confirm Niu Jiaojiao's judgment, the leader was about thirty or forty years old, holding a longbow in his hand, and said a little nervously: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! We are people from the cunning wolf clan, the two arrows just now were just a misunderstanding, I thought you were the ones who came to snatch the prey, I'm really sorry!"
Niu Dingtian's face was slightly gentle, as if he had been convinced: "Oh?
The man nodded hurriedly and said, "Of course it's true, this has always been a hunting place for our cunning wolf clan, and we often encounter hyena clans who snatch prey, so I'm too nervous, it's really a misunderstanding!"
"The cunning wolf clan is the most cunning, nine out of ten sentences are false, don't believe him!" Niu Jiaojiao specially reminded that although she had never seen the cunning wolf clan, she had heard the notoriety of the cunning wolf clan and the hyena clan.
How could Niu Dingtian not understand the true intentions of the group of people in front of him, if it was just to protect the prey, he would only release arrows to warn, and the two arrows just now obviously wanted to take people's lives and kill people and goods.
The human heart is sinister, and it is the same everywhere, but it is especially bloody in the great wilderness. If it weren't for the strength they showed just now, this group of cunning wolf clan people would definitely have a different face.
Niu Dingtian shook his head and said: "I heard that the wolf clan is fierce and cruel and bloodthirsty, at least they dare to act, your performance is really not very good!"
"The cunning wolf clan is not a wolf clan, they are weak and cunning by nature, and they are not recognized by the wolf clan. Even if you join the Heavenly Wolf Mountain, you can only become the lowest people, and you are born to be oppressed and enslaved by the wolf clan. Hearing Niu Dingtian say this, Niu Jiaojiao hurriedly explained.
Niu Dingtian didn't know that there was such a relationship, the dozen or so cunning wolf clansmen heard this, and they all showed resentful expressions, no one was born to be slaves, but who made the cunning wolf clan inherently weaker than the wolf clan in all aspects? He could only wag his tail and beg for mercy under the leadership of the wolf clan, and he could only rely on cunning to obtain living space.
A thin young man of the cunning wolf clan shouted: "Are you horned tribes amazing? If it weren't for the Kui Niu clan and the rhinoceros clan, you would have become brute beast poop long ago! Besides, you won't be happy for a few days, and you still want to stay in Funiu Mountain after robbing the wolf clan's things? Even the Kui Niu clan can't protect you!"
"What do you mean?" Niu Dingtian keenly sensed that the young man of the cunning wolf clan had something to say, and jumped sharply and quickly jumped in front of them.
