Chapter 2: Silence
When Zhang Hu woke up, he found himself lying in a pool, but he was so shocked that he touched his chest violently, but he didn't feel the wound, so he sat up and found himself lying naked in a pool, secretly thinking what was going on? Could it be that he was rescued?
How do you describe where you are? It is the top of his head, full of stars, as if he is in the cosmic starry sky, the stars are so close to him, however, in some places in the sky of stars, there are black cracks from time to time, deep and secluded as if the netherworld, and some of the stars around the cracks are sucked in from time to time, and then, in the black cracks, there are bursts of bright light, not very big, but he feels that those stars seem to explode in the cracks, but these stars are too small to give him too shocking feeling, but it makes him even more shocked What the hell is this place?
Zhang Hu hurriedly looked around, but almost scared himself to death, around the pool is a lawn, there is a small wooden house in the distance of the lawn, next to the wooden house, there is a big tree, in front of the wooden house, there is a fence, the wooden house is enclosed, there are some flowers and plants outside the fence, it looks so quiet, let him feel a paradise artistic conception, although here is as bright as day, but the place is not big, he took a cursory look, at most it is one or two kilometers in size, and around this is the vast sky full of stars, this pure land, as if floating in the universe starry sky。
Seeing that Zhang Hu's eyes were straight, how could he have come to such a strange place outside the world? Could it be that he died, his own life was good, and his soul floated here? But thinking that he was not a good person, and anyone who threatened him was ruthlessly killed, how could he not look like the Lord of Heaven?
He speculated and confused, and when he arrived at the fence in front of the cabin, he looked inside, and saw a middle-aged man lying on a chair in the courtyard, looking at his clothes with a bit of bookish smell, he was slightly relieved, so he shouted twice to the middle-aged scholar, but the middle-aged scholar seemed to be asleep, so he had to open the fence and walk in.
However, at the moment of walking in, Zhang Hu suddenly felt a dizziness in his head, only to feel that his body fell to the ground, but suddenly he seemed to stand up again, after this dizziness passed, Zhang Hu was shocked to find that he had arrived at a place where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, but there was a forest in the distance, and the stars in the sky were gone, and he seemed to have walked into another world.
However, after he was shocked, he looked around, and saw a middle-aged man standing among the flowers and plants in the distance, looking very bookish, with his back to him, hurriedly ran over, and said respectfully: "Senior~"
The middle-aged scholar turned his head and glanced at him, but frowned and said, "For thousands of years, there have been people with such poor qualifications. Well, it's time to come anyway, and it's up to you to see your chance!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and Zhang Hu flew out like a piece of paper, although he knew that this person was afraid that he would be able to cultivate to the sky, but he didn't expect to say two inexplicable words, so he did it to himself, and he didn't even have the power to resist, he fell into the forest in the distance, but the voice of the middle-aged scholar came to his ears: "This forest contains the supreme rhyme, boy, you came here, it can be regarded as a chance, now it's up to you to see if you can understand the mystery of this?" Remember the old man's instructions, otherwise, you may be gone!"
Zhang Hu heard some instructions from the middle-aged scholar, and his scalp was numb, but he also understood that cultivating immortals was a contest between life and death, and he wanted to live, so he resolutely climbed up from the ground and looked at this forest, which was full of ancient trees, and there were dragon's roots and weeds on the ground, which was no different from a real forest?
He remembered the instructions of the middle-aged scholar, and carefully stepped in the forest, although there was no purpose, but he still walked to the forest, because the middle-aged scholar told him that only the deeper he walked into the forest, the safer he was, otherwise, the end would be a disillusionment.
Although he didn't know what such a threat was coming from, he felt that the middle-aged scholar had not deceived him, so he immediately rushed to the forest.
Walking more than a hundred meters inside, Zhang Hu suddenly heard the sound of some beasts in a bush, squeaking, as if it was very miserable, he looked at the grass vigilantly, but saw a rabbit squatting there screaming, relieved, and went over, but saw one of the rabbit's hind legs, like a dried corpse shriveled and withered, and was slowly eroding to the legs and buttocks, the speed was very slow, but it seemed that there was no sense of relief.
Although he is fierce, but there is still some kindness to these harmless rabbits, however, he doesn't want to save it, and he doesn't really want to save it, but, when he thinks of the middle-aged scholar's instructions, he had to go over and pick up the injured rabbit carefully, but he still accidentally touched the rabbit's dry hind legs, and his fingers suddenly came with a sharp pain, and at a glance, a finger seemed to burn like smoke and dust, so scared that it threw the rabbit directly on the ground, but, soon, his fingers recovered, but he found that his spirit was affected。
Zhang Hu secretly wondered if this was the power of extinction mentioned by the middle-aged scholar, which could devour all living things, etc., looked at the rabbit screaming on the ground, he wanted to leave it alone, but thinking of the middle-aged scholar's words, he looked at the forest and there seemed to be nothing abnormal around the forest, so he slowly squatted down, touched the back half of the rabbit's buttocks with his hand, closed his eyes, and carefully felt the power of extinction on the rabbit's body, but unfortunately, he didn't feel anything, and there was a scream of pain, and he woke up from the perception and found that one of his fingers had been worn out again, and he was so shocked that he retracted suddenly。
At this moment, there was a sudden and terrifying rumbling sound in the forest, and he looked in that direction suddenly, and saw that spatial cracks appeared in the void, densely packed, and in these spatial cracks, a black gas-like substance shot out.
When these black qi came into contact with trees or the earth, his eyes suddenly popped out, and he saw that these trees and creatures were drying up at a visible rate, and finally, they disappeared before his eyes, as if they had turned into dust.
In the forest void in the distance, there are spatial cracks everywhere, those black gases must be the qi of annihilation, according to the words of the middle-aged scholar, he is now a soul body, which is why he can recover his fingers under the power of annihilation, but his soul consciousness has been traumatized.
Zhang Hu was frightened, there was a small space above his head with a small crack, but a wisp of silence floated out of it, contaminated on the big tree next to him, and immediately saw that the branches and the like began to wither, so frightened that he jumped up violently, ignoring the half-dead rabbit, and ran frantically towards the depths of the forest.
In the following days, Zhang Hu wandered in the forest cautiously, always paying attention to the space cracks that may appear around and some of the breath of silence wafting out of it, although he knew some laws and scopes, but he was still frightened, however, it was not impossible to solve it, according to the middle-aged scholar, if you want to survive in the power of silence, you must understand the power of life, this forest, contains the supreme rhyme of the mystery of life, if he wants to live, he must understand the mystery of life, otherwise, waiting for his result, only perish.
While Zhang Hu was avoiding the aura of silence, when he saw the injured animals and the like, he grabbed their bodies and carefully understood the mystery, but his qualifications were too poor to react at all.
On this day, Zhang Hu saw a wounded antelope and ran over happily, but before he reached the antelope's side, there was a sudden wolf howl around the mountain.
