Chapter Ninety-Three: The Dark Forest
The ghost land, as the name suggests, is a place where many ghosts gather, just like the bone zombies in the cave pits, under the tempering of the yin and evil qi for a long time, they can have the ability to regenerate and attack.
And this ghost is even more terrifying, according to the records of the wild history, this place is due to the countless corpses and graves, so the corpse is thick, can seal the five senses, people in it, it is difficult to move an inch.
The theory of ghosts and gods is already fantastical, Qiu Xin saw that this place was also passed by, and thought that it was just someone making it up, but to this day, Qiu Xin has seen the white bone zombies, and after seeing the strange methods of the people in the northern Xinjiang, he was mentioned by the knife again, so he had to be cautious.
At this time, Kong Xiangyu continued, "The people of Northern Xinjiang I saw yesterday were originally the aborigines here, they knew how to drive away ghosts, and this ghost land has become a natural place for soul extraction, so this clan's soul dementoring technique is very clever.
Later, the Canglan faction became dominant and occupied Zhuozhou, and the people of northern Xinjiang had to leave, and the two dead Gunu bone axes we saw were probably inseparable from the Canglan faction. ”
Hearing Kong Xiangyu say this, Qiu Xin also calmed down, thinking carefully about what had happened in the past few days, Qiu Xin felt quite strange, first the northern Xinjiang people died inexplicably in the inn, and then those northern Xinjiang people had to fight to the death, and they wanted to kill themselves.
And it is rumored that the Canglan faction diverted the snow and water of the Tianshan Mountains, in short, it was the Canglan faction that occupied the land of the Terrans in northern Xinjiang, using the Dark Forest and the Three Absolute Deserts as a barrier, and kept snakes in captivity in this Canghai Lan Lake.
Then the people of Northern Xinjiang will not give up, but since the Canglan faction is one of the three sects and twelve factions, and they are powerless to resist, it is very likely that these two people from Northern Xinjiang came here for some purpose.
Moreover, in the inn, he killed the people of Northern Xinjiang and did things neatly, and he could also be from the Canglan faction, but in this way, those who committed the murder were very likely to return to the Canglan faction one step ahead of themselves, and there was also a possibility that they met Li Ling'er and a few people on the way.
Qiu pondered for a long time and asked, "Although this place is sparsely populated, there are also people on the border of the desert who come here to get water, and that giant snake's body is huge, which is even more difficult to hide, isn't the Canglan Sect afraid of being discovered?"
"If it is just a place of water, then there are countless rivers, lakes and seas in the world, why the Canglan faction chose this place alone, it is because there is a dark forest, and this snake Jiao must have been raised since childhood.
That's why it can be controlled, and the Dark Forest blocks the vast majority of people in the east, and ordinary people will not risk passing through the Dark Forest, and it is very difficult for people like us who practice martial arts to pass through the Dark Forest.
And this snake Jiao has a tendency to turn into a giant snake for more than two hundred years, and it seems that it has something to do with the Dark Forest, and it will not leave the Dark Forest easily, if it weren't for the stupidity of Li Ling'er this time, and the giant snake was summoned in a daze, then the Jiao would be within more than ten days. ”
Qiu Xin passed the true qi in his body into Shi Weihu's body through the palm of his hand, and continued, "What does Mr. mean is that the day of transformation is just around the corner, and those two people from Northern Xinjiang intended to destroy it, only to be discovered by the people of the Canglan Sect, the Hanging Corpse Inn?"
Kong Xiangyu nodded and glanced around, "This kind of snake is the most taboo to be disturbed, so the Canglan faction will definitely check the eyes of the people nearby in the near future, the fishing boats here are abandoned, and there are no people, it must be their ghost." ”
Dao Ba glanced at the vast lake around him and said, "Since we came here so easily, and Li Ling'er also summoned a giant snake, it means that the Canglan Sect disciples who are monitoring here are not there, then there is only one possibility." ”
"Knowing that Li Ling'er took the conch, she returned to the pie and went to ask the master. The serpent must have fled back to the Dark Forest if it was frightened today, and we may encounter it as we drift here. Qiu Xin added.
Since the gray-clothed man will know that the snake Jiao is in captivity by the Canglan faction, then he must also know about the dark forest, then there are only two possibilities, one is that Qiu Xin is afraid of the snake Jiao and will not jump into the lake, and the other is that Qiu Xin is not afraid of jumping into the lake at all.
Now it seems that the latter is more likely, so this person's purpose is even more confusing.
Although the three of Qiu Xin probably figured out their ideas, they were still confused about it.
I don't know how big this Canghailan Lake is, even if the water flow speed is not particularly fast, but a few people still drifted on the lake for a whole night, and waited until dawn to see a dense forest in the distance.
The secret order was quiet and gloomy, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling, but fortunately it was bright, otherwise it would not be possible to see where the shore was and where the water was.
Even if he has true qi to protect his body, after soaking in this cold lake water all night, several people feel unbearable, especially Shi Weihu, who is a little lacking in qi when he speaks, Kong Xiangyu took Shan Sanniang's body and tied it to his body.
At this time, Dao Hachi took out the dark hidden spirit disk from his arms, handed it to Qiu Xin, and said, "Brother Qiu, when the chief dart head came, he repeatedly explained that he would give this thing to you when he passed through the Dark Forest. It is said that the Hidden Spirit Disk can only be activated by those who have the Hidden Spirit Technique, which is also the key to passing through the Dark Forest, so you can try it. ”
Qiu Xin didn't speak, took the Hidden Spirit Plate, and put it in his hand, giving him an extremely comfortable feeling, and the three-color true qi was like a trickle, slowly merging into the Hidden Spirit Plate.
But when I went to most of the true qi in Qiu Xin's body, I didn't see any reaction, Qiu Xin was a little strange, but he didn't ask, he just continued to instill true qi into it.
The sound of the tiger's roar resounded through the Dark Forest, making the Dao Eight people look around nervously, but there was no movement, and at this moment, the Hidden Spirit Disk underwent an astonishing change.
The original dark and smooth surface appeared with three-color true qi, which was more pure than the true qi in Qiu Xin's body, and the comfortable feeling of yesterday came to my heart again.
The true qi on the surface of the hidden spirit disk merged into Qiu Xin's body again, and Qiu Xin only felt that the surroundings were dark, and the figures of the Dao Eight people were completely invisible.
But in the eyes of the Dao Ba people, Qiu Xin was completely gone, and he couldn't feel any breath of Qiu Xin, and the air flow was so natural.
Shi Weihu was very puzzled, so he made a move to erase it in front of him, but he was blocked, like an invisible barrier, which was where Qiu Xin stood.
Qiu Xin ran for a long time, and felt that it was almost over, so he stopped, and the three-color light on the surface of the hidden spirit disk was also gone, looking at the surprised expressions of Dao Basan, Qiu Xin asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Shi Weihu was overjoyed, "Brother Qiu, I just said that you are a blessed star from the sky, how can it be a broom star, when you urged this thing just now, your whole person seemed to have disappeared, and you couldn't find it at all, no matter how dangerous the dark forest was, you could get by." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and patted Qiu Xin again, but he grinned in pain.
Kong Xiangyu didn't know when he went to retrieve his teapot again, stroked it gently, his eyes narrowed, "The Hidden Spirit Plate is the treasure of the Hidden Sect, and the rumors have disappeared for many years, I didn't expect it to have such an effect, so it is possible to pass through the Dark Forest." ”
After listening to the words of a few people, Qiu Xin understood, it turned out that Su Ke had long known the effect of the Hidden Spirit Plate, and only the urging of the person who had learned the Hidden Spirit Recipe had an effect, so Su Ke asked Qiu Xin a little strangely in the inn if he had learned the Hidden Spirit Technique.
As long as this concealment effect is applied to everyone, then walking in this dark forest will not be discovered, so it all makes sense.
Qiu Xin also nodded, "I'll try to amplify this effect, and you guys will stand by my side first." Hearing this, the three of them immediately came to Qiu Xin's side, but Shi Weihu walked out again.
"The four of us are standing together, who knows if it works, the three of you are standing together, and I am watching from the outside. "Qiu Xin and the others were too anxious, but they ignored this, and it was rare for Shi Weihu to be clever.
This time, Qiu Xin did not tentatively send the true qi to the hidden spirit plate, but directly from the dantian, through the Ren vein, without reservation, the three-color light was directly displayed on the hidden spirit plate, and Shi Weihu, who was watching outside, shouted loudly, "It's gone, it's gone." ”
But the three of Qiu Xin didn't seem to hear it, Shi Weihu touched the diaphragm barrier with his hand, and shouted loudly, "Brother Qiu, it has a role, it has a role, let me go in too." ”
Still didn't see Qiu Xin stop, Shi Weihu also scratched his head, I don't know what happened, after a long time, when Qiu Xin felt that it was almost over, he stopped and asked, "How is it, Brother Shi, does it work?"
At this time, Shi Weihu was already lying on the side, snoring like thunder, and had fallen asleep.
Qiu Xin was a little dumbfounded, but several people had not slept for a day and a night, and they were already very tired, Qiu Xin pulled up Shi Weihu, "Brother Shi, Brother Shi ......"
Shi Weihu opened his eyes in a daze, "I thought you could keep drilling in it and not come out, and I didn't answer when I shouted." ”
"Uh! We also asked you, but I didn't see you answer!"
Obviously, under the protection of the hidden spirit disk, the people outside can't see the people inside, and they can't hear the voices inside, and the same is true for the people inside, so although it is much safer, how to see the road has become a problem.
Dao Eight didn't know what to do, and asked, "Brother Qiu, can you control this barrier and open a gap?"
Qiu Xin shook his head, he just fused his true qi into the hidden spirit disk, he could only control the amount of true qi, but there was no way to do this ability. ”
Seeing this, Kong Xiangyu's eyes changed, and he said, "Since it works, then let's keep moving forward like this first, and when there is danger, let Brother Qiu urge the Hidden Spirit Disk again, and then stop when there is no problem." ”
"So how do we know when there will be no danger?"
"Resign yourself to fate. ”
But something is better than nothing, as long as you are careful, and then there is a hidden spirit disk, it is not difficult to pass through this place.
At this time, the sun finally rose, and several people urged the true qi to dry the clothes on their bodies, and left the shore, ready to think about the depths of the dark forest.
