Chapter 413: Ghost Pine Forest (2)
"I know what it is. Ranwen? ?? .?r?a?n?? e?n 'net" Ruan Zun looked at the poisonous insects in the ice cube in his palm, and kept recalling the relevant books he had read when he came to this continent. Finally, I remembered a spiritual record in my mind, which was only a few words, but now that I think about it, it is very close to the actual characteristics of this poisonous insect.
Blue Cockroach.
A name that sounds quite beautiful and romantic, centipede, blue-blooded, shadowless, and poisonous, is the only description of it in the spiritual chronicles.
"Its name is Blue Cockroach?" Ming Yan took the ice cube over, only to see that the poisonous insect in it was still dead and trembling, "It's a nice name." ”
"It was definitely deliberately kept in this pine forest. The smoke and gloomy woods here are just that, or their best cover. Ruan Zun said, "Or, they were deliberately planted by the bandits of Erlong Mountain to fend off the outside spirits and officers and soldiers who strayed in. ”
He pointed to the way he came, "The bones on that road, left by the people who came to this pine forest by mistake or the demonic beasts, have been infested by this poisonous insect. ”
"We had just entered the edge of this ghost pine forest when we encountered it. Ming Yan said with trepidation, "If you go inside, you may encounter more, even more poisonous things." So, shall we continue then?"
"For ordinary people, when they encounter this situation, they naturally avoid it. Ruan Zun said, "However, for our Young Army, since it is exploration, the more strange it is, the more valuable it is to explore." ”
"That's right, yesterday, we all thought the same thing. Ming Yan said.
"Otherwise, you go back first, and I'll go and see for myself. Ruan Zun said.
"Hmph, do you think that where you can go to a place where even a high-level spirit master can go, I, an intermediate spirit venerable, can't go?" Ming Yan raised his eyebrows.
"I'm afraid you're in danger. Ruan Zun said.
"Hmph. Ming Yan snorted, I don't know what method he pinched, a jade pendant on his waist lit up, and a layer of lilac purple shrouded himself, "This is a purple spirit cover, which can stimulate one's own spiritual power, forming a layer of spiritual power shield around the body, cultivating to a person lower than oneself, under one blow, it is difficult to break this cover." ”
Ruan Zun looked at the purple spirit cover and praised it, "Good thing, you people from the Shangqing Palace are really good at playing." ”
Ming Yan glanced at him, "I'm in front, you follow closely, and you have to guard against these poisonous insects attacking from behind." ”
As he spoke, he took a step and slowly walked towards the depths of the pine forest.
Ruan Zun secretly used a burst of spiritual power, shook the blue cockroach frozen in the ice to death, and threw it into the shadow pendant. Following behind Ming Yan, it was not that he was timid and afraid, but that in some treacherous places, the threats and dangers from the rear were far greater than the threats and dangers in front of him.
After walking forward for more than a dozen steps, I could hear a loud sound outside the purple spirit hood of bright smoke, and a blue streamer collided from an extremely hidden angle.
Sure enough, it was another blue cockroach who secretly attacked.
Before it was shaken open and hit the ground, the carefree in Ruan Zun's hand was also like a streamer, directly passing the blue cockroach. The guy squeaked and fell to the ground. Then a cloud of cold spiritual power struck the place where it landed, freezing it into a ball.
Ruan Zun concocted it in the same way, used his spiritual power to shock him to death, and included it in the shadow space.
In this way, in a short time, they had killed fifteen blue cockroaches. In the end, there were three blue cockroaches attacking at the same time. In the end, two were injured under the carefree, and one was injured under the sword rain of the Tianluo Sword.
It wasn't until the fifteenth blue cockroach died, or the remaining poisonous insects were warned that no more poisonous insects would launch secret attacks on them. And where they are is already in the depths of this ghost pine forest.
This place was even darker and darker than the previous road, and if it weren't for the continuous use of spiritual power on the two of them, as well as the light reflection of the purple spirit cover, they wouldn't even be able to see the road ahead.
The surrounding pine trees are even taller and more gloomy, and all kinds of branches are like limbs, which look like ghosts and horrors. It was even more silent in all directions, and the silence was eerie.
In this atmosphere, Ming Yan wanted to speak, but he didn't dare to speak out.
"Finally, there are no poisonous insects here. Is it possible to remove the purple spirit cover?" Ruan Zun said, he saw that the light on the purple spirit cover was getting fading and fading, and knew that its duration was nearing the end, and its consumption of spiritual power was also relatively serious, and Ming Yan was obviously a little tired.
"Hmm. Ming Yan nodded, and his hand tapped on the jade pendant, and the purple spirit cover disappeared suddenly. She also let out a breath of cloudiness.
"You say, under this Erlong Mountain, there is such a sinister forest. Why didn't there be any mention of the information of the Boys' Army? Qingzhou Mansion could at least get some information, why didn't it get any breath?" she asked suspiciously.
"I don't know. Ruan Zun said in a deep voice, "Now is not the time to think about this. I judge that the reason why there are no poisonous insects here is not because there are too few poisonous insects, or because they are so kind that they do not follow us. Rather, we're in a much more dangerous area. The aura in this area is even more terrifying, so that poisonous insects dare not touch it easily. ”
He also said: "Moru, I'll let a few worry-free explore the way first." ”
The spiritual thought urged three pieces of worry-free to levitate around the body, and each of them, under the urging of the spirit and the maintenance of spiritual power, emitted bursts of demonic purple light. Although these purple rays are still dim, they have a large range and strong penetrating power, and they also play a certain role in expanding the field of vision.
"Listen, that's a sound. Ming Yan suddenly stared and listened.
Ruan Zun also listened attentively, only to hear a sound from the depths of the pine forest in front of him. This voice, such as crying, crying, leaning, and complaining, supplemented by this scene, is like a ghost cry in the middle of the night, making people's hairs stand on end.
"Is there really a ghost?" Ming Yan's expression tightened, "This pine forest, but it is called the ghost pine forest by the locals!
"How can there be ghosts in this world?" Ruan Zun said, "Even if there are some strange things, there must be a reason. Perhaps, just like the blue cockroach, it was sent by some kind of insects, birds and beasts. ”
The two of them continued on their way, but at a much slower pace than before.
At this point, the ghostly sound lasted for a while, then stopped for a while, and then shouted again, this time more clearly.
It's a very weird sound.
"Be careful. Ruan Zun carried Ming Yan. She wasn't afraid of poisonous insects, but when she heard that there might be ghosts or something, she felt a little weak.
"Either way, or not, let's go back. Ming Yan said, "When we came here yesterday, even the pine forest on the periphery was less than a third of the way. Now here ......"
Ruan Zun smiled secretly, she was a hero before.
If you were alone, it wouldn't matter if you took some risks, but with one more smoke around you, there would be more worries. Moreover, just on the periphery of a pine forest, encountering a blue cockroach is already dangerous, and further inside, I don't know what else there is.
Ruan Zun also decided to go back first, at least to talk to everyone first. I got the corpses of fifteen blue cockroaches and figured out the situation of a part of the pine forest, which can be regarded as an explanation.
No one wants to joke with their lives, and he Ruan Zun is no exception.
The reason why he attaches so much importance to the intelligence of the Lingwen Society is because he is even more reluctant to fight an unprepared battle in his bones.
"Okay, let's go back first. Ruan Zun said, taking her hand and preparing to return the way he came. However, in the depths of the pine forest, there was a sudden sound of messy footsteps, and the sound of people screaming and panting. Then, a thick bloody breath suddenly came.
With the bloody breath coming, there was also a string of painful voices: "Ahead, but there are people, save me, save me......"
