Chapter II
In order not to be overwhelmed by the terrifying white mist, Zhen Zheng could only walk hard, and retreated quickly under his feet along the lake path, and after a long time, he had walked out of Yichuan Lake, away from Yichuan Peak, and returned to the sixty-fourth path.
Zhen Zhengxin said, this time going back will not be walking back to the original point. So I continued to walk back. At this time, it was noon, and the sixty-fourth path was empty. Zhen Zheng was in a hurry all night, and in the morning he was running in the forest, coupled with the danger of the giant python and the horror of the white fog, Zhen Zheng was physically and mentally exhausted at this time, and he had no strength, so he had to find a vigorous ancient tree on the side of the road, sit under the tree, and lean on the canggan. The branches and leaves of the ancient tree were luxuriant, covering the sky, and it was very shady under the tree, and Zhen Zheng gradually fell asleep.
Zhen Zheng seemed to hear a voice in his dream, faintly, ethereal like smoke, and he couldn't hear it really. Suddenly, a sharp and piercing chirp woke Zhen Zheng up in an instant, and he found that the crescent moon hung on the dome, and there was no one around. Zhen Zheng slept for a day, and just as he was about to get up, he suddenly found that his body was entangled by old branches and he couldn't move. The harder he strained, the tighter the branches became wound, so he relaxed himself and thought about what to do.
Zhen Zheng thought that this might be a harmful tree that preyed on humans for a living, but this tree only wrapped around the human body and did not move, and it did not look like a cannibal. Even if the tree does not harm people, at this time, the beast is coming, and Zhen Zheng is also very dangerous.
"Help, save my child's life. Zhen Zheng suddenly heard a fragile voice. "Who is it? who is calling for help?" Zhen Zheng shouted, not wanting to think that he himself was also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river. "Shaoxia, please save my son's life, please save them. The voice continued. "Who is calling for help?" Zhen Zheng felt that the voice was very close, and it seemed to be beside him, but there was no one around, only one person and one tree. "Could it be this ancient tree?" Zhen Zhengxin said. "That's right, it's me, I'm the ancient tree next to the young man. Zhen Zheng was shocked, this ancient tree could not only speak, but also hear his own heart.
"Demon! It must be a tree demon!" Zhen Zheng exclaimed. "According to you humans, it's okay to say that I'm a demon, but please help me. "The voice of the dryad was faint, but it was real, not a hallucination.
"What the hell are you asking me to help you, how can I help?" Zhen Zheng said helplessly, at this time, he was in the hands of the Dryad, so he could only let it go.
"Shaoxia, listen to me slowly, I am the oldest tree on the sixty-fourth road, which existed long before the Emperor Kaizu, until the sixth emperor, five hundred years, was born Lingzhi, you can absorb the essence of the moon, accumulate mana, and cultivate some simple supernatural powers. Zhen Zheng looked down at the dry trunk that was wrapped around him, thinking that maybe this was the so-called "supernatural power" of the dryad.
"For thousands of years, my children and grandchildren have been full of forests, and the groves that I pass by on to Lake Yichuan are my descendants. There is a black bear demon in the forest, originally it only went to Yichuan Lake to fish for food, who knew that two years ago there was a dragon in Yichuan Lake, the black bear demon did not dare to hunt again, so he had to absorb the essence of my children and grandchildren for a living, they will soon die because of this, I am near, I can't live long, I don't want to cut off children and grandchildren, white-haired people send black-haired people. I hope that Shaoxia can help me get rid of the bear demon so that my offspring can continue to multiply. ”
Zhen Zheng couldn't help but smack his tongue, there are really many descendants of the tree demon, although the woods are not big, but there are hundreds of trees, "I also want to help you, but I have no power to restrain the chicken, how can I deal with the bear demon?" "The reason why I don't want to deal with the bear demon is because my life is about to run out, and I have no mana, and it is my last bit of mana that traps you. Although the bear demon is a demon, he has not been cultivating for a long time, his spiritual wisdom has not been opened, and he does not understand supernatural powers, but his body is twice as strong as that of ordinary black bears. Although the young man is physically weak, he can set a trap to deal with this demon. ”
Zhen Zheng couldn't help but blush when he saw through the dryad's mind again, he also knew that what the dryad said might not be true, even if he dealt with an ordinary bear, he didn't dare to think about it, let alone a bear demon. Seeing that Zhen Zheng hesitated, the tree demon said helplessly: "If the young man is still not at ease, I can give the young man a treasure, and the young man can use this thing to kill the bear demon." In fact, I still have a trace of mana, which is enough to crush the young man. ”
Zhen Zheng was overjoyed when he heard that there was a treasure to take, but a basin of cold water was splashed behind him, and he realized that he had to promise the dryad today.
The dryad let Zhen Zheng go, and the rough branches retreated like snakes. Zhen Zheng didn't dare to run away, for fear that the dryad would be angry and really kneaded himself into a meat pie. The retreating branch actually stretched straight into the main trunk of the dryad, and then wrapped up a black wooden ring and handed it to Zhen Zheng. "This core is the essence of my body, it's so hard that I've condensed it into the shape of a ring for you to use. The dryad said lightly.
"How do you use it?" Zhen Zheng was curious. "You just put it on and you'll know. The dryad didn't explain much. Zhen Zheng took the black wood ring and put it on his right hand, and the ring instantly grew several branches and wrapped around Zhen Zheng's right arm. And it didn't continue to spread.
"What's the matter, what are you doing here?" Zhen Zheng exclaimed.
"In this way, even if the fusion is successful, it will be a young hero in the future, and whatever weapon you want it to become, it will become whatever weapon it is. It's a ring when it's not in use, and it changes shape when it's needed. ”
Zhen Zheng was very happy when he heard this, this is really a good baby, and immediately tried it, "Turn it into a sword." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a wooden thorn sticking out of the front of the ring, condensing into the shape of a one-meter-long sword. It's a pity that the sword can't be held in the hand, but can only be "worn" in the hand. Zhen was slashing the ground, and the ground was easily cut into a deep mark. Zhen Zheng sensed the power of this treasure. "It becomes a ring. Zhen Zheng ordered again, but the branch wrapped around his right arm did not retreat.
"What's going on, why can't you go back?" asked Zhen Zheng. "Don't worry, as long as the young man gets rid of the black bear demon, he will definitely be able to control this ring freely, if he can't kill it, I'm afraid that the whole body of the young man will be entangled by this ring and become a 'human tree'. The dryad still said lightly.
"You ......" Zhen Zheng was in a hurry, trying to take off this thing by all means. No wonder the tree demon dared to let Zhen Zheng go, he was not afraid that he would regret it afterwards, it turned out that he had already made a move. Zhen Zheng had no choice but to kill the black bear demon, he didn't want to become a wood, he asked for information about the bear demon in detail, thought of a way to hunt it, and walked towards the grove with a black face.
Before he had gone far, he heard a loud noise, like thunder, Zhen Zheng looked back, only to see that the huge tree demon was annihilated in an instant, and the branches and leaves turned into a handful of black soil. It turned out that the dryad was already approaching the limit, and he gave the wooden core to Zhen Zheng to accelerate his death, so there was such a scene.
The shadow of the moon has faded, and the east is steaming with red rays. According to the dryad, the black bear demon comes out to absorb the essence of the forest during the day, and hides in the cave at night and does not come out. Zhen Zheng must hurry up, dig a deep pit in the place where the black bear demon must pass, and wait for the rabbit.
Fortunately, there is a black wood ring, which becomes a wooden shovel, and it is twice the result with half the effort, and it takes almost no effort. After digging the pit, Zhen Zheng put a few wooden thorns in the pit, and it was the dryad who covered it with a layer of branches, leaves, and sand, and everything was ready only to owe the east wind. Zhen is hiding in the shadows, waiting for the bear demon to appear.
On the three poles, there was a muffled scream in the distance, but it was the black bear demon who appeared. Zhen Zheng didn't dare to make a sound in the dark, for fear of exposing his whereabouts and abandoning his plan. The bear demon approached, only to see that its body was five meters long and about 2 meters high, and its body was far larger than that of its kind.
The big bear is getting closer and closer, and Zhen Zheng is not afraid of the bear demon because of the close contact with Qiu Long before, but he is worried that the pit will not die the bear demon and leave a big disaster.
A hundred steps, fifty steps, ten steps, and it was about to enter the pit, and the black bear demon stopped, it seemed to sense the danger ahead, and lowered its head and sniffed.
After all, a demon is a demon, and it is by no means an ordinary beast, even if it is not enlightened, it has a strong ability to perceive. Zhen Zheng was in a hurry, he couldn't help moving, the bear demon felt movement in the distance, Huo Ran turned his head, Zhen Zheng saw that the bear demon's eyes were blood-red, and a pair of pupils were also erected like dragons. Zhen Zheng didn't have time to think about it, the bear demon had already walked towards his hiding place.
No, run, Zhen Zheng pulled his legs and ran, and the bear demon let out a dull roar, shaking the mountains and forests. Where can Zhen Zheng run past the black bear demon, and he was caught up in a few steps, and the huge shadow of the black bear demon has already submerged Zhen Zheng.
Zhen Zheng gritted his teeth and turned around, at this time, the bear demon pounced and pounced, "Spear!" Zhen Zheng shouted, his right arm wrapped in a black wood ring suddenly grew more than two meters, condensing into the appearance of a gun. "Whew!" a scream, and the black spear drove straight in, instantly piercing the bear demon's head.
The bear demon's huge body fell to the ground with a bang, the black wood ring returned to the shape of a ring, and Zhen Zheng looked at his right hand. The quaint wooden ring was inconspicuous, but who would have thought that it would be a magic weapon.
As soon as the bear demon died, the entire body quickly decayed, turning into scattered points of light in the forest, and all the trees suddenly became active and leafy. These are all the tree essences that the black bear demon has absorbed in the past two years, and now they are all back to their original owners.
"Ahh Zhen Zheng ran over to take a look, the trap was stepped on, and there was a big man inside who was pierced by the wood buried by Zhen Zheng and died, this person was actually the leader of the bandits who kidnapped him.
It turned out that when he passed through the grove yesterday, the bandit leader had been following the team at the end, and when the heaven and earth were visionary, he ran away and hid in the grove, but he was trapped in the forest and could not find a way out. Now that he died in the trap set by Zhen Zheng, it can be regarded as a report and a report, but the cause and effect with Zhen Zheng are gone.
