Chapter 58: The Depths of the Rainforest
Every plant is clinging to plants that are stronger and taller than themselves, striving for sunlight. If there is no sunlight, it means that there is no photosynthesis, which means decay and death.
Plants that would not have been entangled elsewhere have learned this art here in order to be able to break free from the shadows. Therefore, even some of the palm trees are wrapped around the cedar trees and try to reach their tops.
Here, the Celestial Master of Wenda can clearly feel life, that kind of deformed prosperity, and hard struggle.
Since going deep into the rainforest, he has adapted to the land more easily than he ever imagined. It's not because of his great strength, but from an indescribable kindness. It's as if the fish have returned to the sea.
Just like Wen Fei felt at the beginning, the vitality in this rainforest was too strong, so strong that it was almost overflowing.
The vitality of the whole land seems to have to break through the ground from the flourishing land, so that the latter can grow desperately, and only then can there be a chance to receive the sun.
Suddenly, overnight, Master Wen understood the civilizations in the rainforest, whether it was the Mayan or the Olmec civilizations, and had some profound understanding.
In this land, there is too much life. In the path of balance, it does not mean that it is a good thing.
In such a place, there is too much species and too much life. So much so that it has become extremely easy to obtain food.
Almost any tropical part of the world does not give birth to a powerful country. And people from almost any tropical place. Almost in the eyes of the Chinese, they are all representatives of laziness.
Both in Africa and in the Americas. Or Southeast Asia, or even next door to us.
Think about it, for thousands of years, you don't have to work like this. How can people who can find enough food by going out and walking around casually have the power to create a zào?
However, since there is no pursuit in material terms. It will turn more and more to the spiritual pursuit. That's why ancient Tianzhu had so many so-called thinkers. Constantly studying those metaphysical things. All kinds of ideas and theories emerge in an endless stream, which makes people dazzled.
And the civilization that was originally in this jungle was the same as Tianzhu. There are a few differences. Although it is also the pursuit of those metaphysical things. However, it has developed into a civilization that regards the gods as complete sustenance, and a civilization centered on the sacrifice of the gods.
This will fall into the strange circle of blood sacrifice, continuous reincarnation, and constant tossing. Just as China has not been able to get out of the cycle of chaos for 2,000 years, the civilizations of the Americas have never been able to get out of their own circle.
Master Wen even suspected that the blood sacrifices of these civilizations in the Americas were like a balance of nature. It's like those lemmings in Australia, which are too widespread in biological populations. When the ecological imbalance is unbalanced, he automatically commits suicide by jumping into the sea.
They are the reason why. It's so easy to carry a kayak through the rainforest. It's just because, here, the Great Celestial Master suddenly seemed to have mastered the ability to communicate with plants.
After entering the rainforest deeper and deeper, Master Wen found that his consciousness seemed to be able to connect with the surrounding plants and land. Able to light yì, command these around the plants.
Maybe that's not accurate, it's not that he's able to communicate with the plants around him. Rather, it is a qiē around it, not only the plants, but also the rivers and the land, which are also alive. Talking to the Great Master of Wen.
So when they carried the boat through the dense bushes and vines, they found that these things had made way of a path before they could swing their machetes.
With such a magical scene, the captain and the cook were even more in awe of Master Wen. The great sorcerer who can command plants, even in the middle of this vast rainforest, is a legendary figure.
It can even only be found in the old songs that are sung among some tribes. And the characters in those ballads are all great heroes or gods.
And these, for Master Wen himself, are even more novel and extremely strange experiences. It was as if the whole rainforest had come to life and become a huge life to communicate with him.
This kind of exchange is still very vague, but it has already made Master Wen vaguely know that this is the reason for this situation. It must be the reason for the purple crystal skull in David's house.
Perhaps, that thing originally came out of the rainforest.
When they turned into a shallow, clear river that flowed on the sandy bottom. The scenery becomes extremely beautiful.
Dense trees crisscross overhead, leading to this green passage in the golden sun, flowing a beautiful green river, as clear as crystal.
It's hard to imagine such a peaceful and peaceful place in this place of life, where there are tall trees and shrubs and vines growing wildly.
"What a strong aura," Wen Fei was secretly surprised when he stepped into this place.
"This is it, Mr. Wen. The chef said.
Wen Fei nodded, he didn't need to say it, he could guess.
Here, Great Celestial Master Wen saw a lot of beasts, and they were not afraid of people at all.
The little black monkey, with its snow-white teeth, howled as the group walked by. The black tapir stared at the Great Celestial Master from the bushes for a long time, and then walked through the forest.
Another time, a huge jaguar appeared on the bank of the river, looking at us with green eyes. Birds gather in small flocks, blue, red, and white, and stay on the stumps of the trees on the shore. And the crystal water is filled with fish of all shapes and colors.
These animals are not afraid of seeing people, and it is obvious that they have not seen the power of people before.
"This used to be a forbidden place for cannibal tribes, and no one was allowed to walk in at all. Anyone who comes near this forbidden place will be regarded by them as someone who disturbs the peace of their ancestors. Then they will be cooked and dismembered, and they will eat it. The captain said coldly.
Quinn sneered, "Are there still such primitive tribes? I thought they were all extinct." ”
"Yes, it's extinct. During the rainy season a year ago, the people of this tribe did not know what strange disease they had contracted and all of them died overnight. Otherwise, we wouldn't dare to travel here!"
The cook laughed: "These savage tribes, who knows what they eat indiscriminately." They're isolated, and maybe a flu out there can kill them!"
Although this chef has Indian blood, it is obvious that he no longer has the slightest Indian consciousness. It's like those bananas.
Moreover, the barbarian tribes that still maintain this cannibalistic custom are outliers, even among the Indians.
"Someone!" Wen Fei said lightly, looking at the chef: "It's an indigenous!"
The cook's face changed drastically, and he said, "How is it possible, the last time we came, it was obviously ......"
Before he could finish his words, his face changed. Everyone heard a strange rhythmic sound flickering and flickering.
The cook and the captain remained motionless, as if they had become bronze statues, and their faces were full of horror as they listened to the sound of the drum.
"What is it?" Wen Fei asked.
"Drums," said Lord Quinn, unconcerned, "war drums." I've heard it before. He raised his gun.
"Yes, sir, the drums of war," said the cook, fearfully, "and the Indian savages, who watched us at every step. If they could, they would kill us. ”
Wen Fei nodded: "I see, but I look more like a monkey!"
He could already see that among the dense branches and leaves of a large tree a few dozen meters away, a human-like face was revealed.
It is long, white, with a flat nose, a protruding jaw, and a beard on the chin. The eyes under the thick eyebrows are vicious, and when it opens its mouth, it can even see two rows of sharp teeth with crooked teeth inside.
In an instant, Wen Fei could even see hatred and malice in his eyes. Then there was a look of fear, and it burrowed into the green leaves. When he turned around, he revealed a hairy, pigskin-pink body, which was soon gone.
But the drums were still playing, and it was clear that it would not be a monkey who was beating the drums, and it was such a rhythmic war drum.
"It's them, it's this cannibal. I've always heard that they can domesticate monkeys......" The captain's frantic screams have not yet fallen.
"Ah......h
It was not a monkey that landed, but a wild man wrapped in animal skin. The poor fellow silently climbed up to the big tree above them, and did not know what he was going to do.
But he had already been discovered by the Great Master of Wen, but as a result, this guy was dizzy, and he fell from a tree more than ten meters high and fainted.
More than a dozen guns were quickly aimed at this guy, and he approached silently, making those bodyguards feel that they had lost face in front of the true god, and honestly and unceremoniously went up and punched and kicked him, tying him up.
The native opened his mouth and roared a few words, but unfortunately even the chef didn't understand much. In the rainforest, there are countless Indian tribes, many of which are isolated from each other and do not communicate with each other. Languages vary greatly.
The chef stammered, "Probably they're threatening us...... You're going to kill us all or something. ”
"Don't show mercy, as long as they get close, they will be killed!" "Wen Da Heavenly Master is in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it can be said that he is killing people. Those who died directly or indirectly at the hands of him, the Heavenly Master, would not be less than a million. (To be continued......)
