Chapter 66
"Hold on!"
As soon as Chu Huan's footsteps moved, Yuan Ping got up. He originally intended to hold Chu Huan, but Chu Huan was wearing a "python robe" at the moment and had nowhere to start, so he had to yell and scream.
Yuan Ping said: "The last time we met the child was on the flat ground, right? He was chased like a dog at the time. This place is a valley, and the energy of'it' is still increasing. Let's go on like this. Can we still get it? ?"
Lu Ge was holding the head of the human being. He didn't touch anything when he heard the words. He raised his eyebrows blankly, as if to imply that his old man was free to come and go, and soldiers came to cover the water and earth without caring.
It is indeed a man who has been worshipped as a mountain god for thousands of generations, and his body is faintly shining with an arrogant arrogance that makes ordinary people worship.
Nan Shan's arrogance was much more gentle. He thought about Yuan Ping's words for a moment, and then said apologetically: "Yes, you make sense, but we have agreed to this wizard."
In the end, Chu Huan, the famous crispy dog, gave a more reliable answer.
"Come here, this angle." Chu Huan pressed Yuan Ping's head, "Did you see, there is a river in the middle of the valley, this river is not stagnant water, it passes through the mountain, just now we actually saw it after crossing this mountain If something goes wrong, just retreat along the other side of it."
Yuan Ping realized that Chu Huan had already figured out his way of retreat. It wasn't the gentleman's disease who rashly agreed to come back to be the Virgin, so he immediately let go of his ten hearts: "What are you still lingering? Hurry up."
After speaking, he has already taken the lead down from the edge of the valley.
Lu Ge quickly followed, frowning very dissatisfied with his cheap "son": "Unsteady."
A strong sense of suffocation was waiting for each other in the valley. After going deep into the hinterland, several people closed their mouths at the same time, and approached the people in the valley as quickly as possible.
Lu Ge held the head in one hand and the scepter in the other, his teeth clenched.
He and Nan Shan were two people, one seemed indifferent, the other seemed indifferent and indifferent, but in fact they were very nervous.
The people who have been swallowed are really still alive, can they be released again?
Chu Huan was dizzy with the crying that only he could hear. He endured it calmly, while ignoring Lu Ge and Nan Shan's implied anxious and urgent gaze, and quickly What is searching in the crowd.
He is looking for an altar. If a clan has a wizard, there must be an altar.
The altar is not difficult to find, just look at where the men, women and children in the valley are facing.
When he found this altar, the breath in Chu Huan's lungs was about to run out. He quickly gestured to his companion, took a big step, and rushed to the altar that suddenly rose in the middle of the crowd.
Chu Huan nodded, Lu Ge immediately raised his hand and raised the wizard's head high, as if lifting a solemn and sacred sacrifice, and then placed the head on the flame on the scepter and lit Up.
The fire burned very fast, the flame on the wizard's body was hot, but the temperature was warm, the fire on the scepter looked cold, but the temperature was tyrannical.
Lu Ge raised the burning head high with the tip of the knife. The burning head was brighter than the fire on the scepter. Chu Huan almost had an illusion, as if it illuminates all the people facing this place.
At this time, his breath was exhausted. Chu Huan couldn't hold on even if his teeth were bleeding, but he didn't say a word, because at the same time, Chu Huan realized that the cry in his ear was still there. But it is not stern.
In the dizziness of hypoxia, he restrained and spit out a bit of turbid air and water, and tried to breathe again.
The surrounding air is still sticky and still makes people feel tight, but the swampy suffocation does disappear.
The fresh oxygen stimulated Chu Huan's heart to become clear. He raised his elbow and poked Yuan Ping, who had become a tomato in his face: "Don't hold back, you can breathe."
Yuan Ping coughed violently when he was hit by a rough elbow. He pointed bitterly at Chu Huan and couldn't speak. Chu Huan said, "Hush..."
The bitter cry finally slowly turned into a choked sob. Chu Huan heard that people were calling for their wizard.
Chu Huan couldn't help smiling, as if moved, but his hand clenched the longbow hanging on his body, as if he was ready to do another one at any time.
The shadow lurking in the bodies of these people is like a bomb, and it may blow them out of recognition at any time.
Suddenly, the gloom on the first person slowly faded, and then the whole valley was like dominoes, passed from ten to ten, and the wizard's dying head lit his family. And those silent, cold, stern, false... were all driven out, and the last bit of suffocating stickiness in the air disappeared.
Chu Huan felt that he had never smelled cleaner air in his entire life.
The driven shadows withdrew from people's bodies in small strands, and the slender halo began to flow down from the aboriginals, falling on the ground, slowly spreading and growing like immature seedlings.
There was a violent tremor around the valley, Nan Shan's voice sank: "Here."
As soon as his voice fell, the retreating gloom of people gradually gathered together, like a filthy dragon, like a whip, and drew it towards the altar.
Chu Huan seemed to be waiting for this moment. He drew out two feather arrows and buckled them up and down. The tip of the arrow swept across Lu Ge's head and plunged into the flame on the scepter, the violent sparks. Connected into a line, and his bowstring has already been prepared, at the moment he shoots out like clouds and flowing water——
Arrows sink to land like meteors.
The fire engulfing the arrow body fell into the shadows in a blink of an eye, and suddenly there was an abrupt explosion in the silent fall. The bright and beautiful firework exploded in the shadow, blasting the majestic big black snake into a piece. Gu Tou couldn't take care of the rags.
Emotionally, Chu Huan really wanted to stand in place and appreciate the counterattack effect, but his strong sense and self-control was still there, so when the rope on his wrist showed tension, he decisively followed his companion Sa Yazi and ran. Up.
Since the "fallen world" has become a kind of "cruel carnivore", Chu Huan has also had a new perspective on the shadows that are chasing after them—the shadows that seem intangible and seem to have nowhere to focus. Things like flower vines that have become vain flowers, Mutai's wind arrows, and the big tail of Sound beast.
If the fire on the scepter is really its nemesis, then such an attack should definitely be effective.
It's a pity that Huo's life is very short after leaving the scepter, otherwise they can try to set the mountain on fire.
This was their first successful counterattack since they fell to the ground. Chu Huan’s arrows were more exciting than the booster shot for the dying man. Yuan Ping and Nan Shan immediately followed suit. In the end, Chu Huan saw that they were in danger of playing off, and quickly stopped: "You save a little, the arrows you bring out are countless!"
Yuan Ping happily told him: "It doesn't matter, there are so many houses on the roadside, and every family has hunters. You can just go in and get them if you have no arrows."
Chu Huan was taken aback for a moment, and thought: "Damn it, yes!"
Nan Shan smiled shyly, as if he felt a little ashamed of not asking himself, but in very times, there was no other way, so he had no choice but to be casual.
Several people wedge nails in the shadows as they ran, and followed the established retreat path to the mountain stream that Huan said.
Nan Shan who opened the road went directly into the water: "Jump down!"
Yuan Ping was taken aback: "Wait, what about the fire? The fire is afraid..."
He didn't end his fear, Chu Huan had already kicked his ass and kicked Yuan Ping into the water.
Yuan Ping: "Ah—"
Later, he found himself enveloped in a layer of invisible air current, Nan Shan turned his head and smiled at him, his palm moved slightly, the air current curled into a bubble, and several people were firmly protected in it. Finally, Lu Ge, who was in the water, was not surprised, and steadily raised the scepter in his hand, and the flame on the scepter remained motionless under the isolation of the bubbles.
At first glance, the mountain stream is drooping, but I didn't expect the water flow to be quite turbulent.
Several people took a "downwind boat" and went straight down the river.
The mountain stream passes through the cave and merges into a river. The river runs to the lower reaches, and the pattern suddenly opens up. The white water drops for a thousand miles. This time Chu Huan's heartbroken heart and lungs are finally used in the right place. This is really no good one. The road-much faster than they ran with their two legs, and it didn't take long for them to get rid of the chasing gloom behind them.
Chu Huan asked Nan Shan loudly: "Patriarch, is the direction downstream right?"
Nan Shan roughly estimated it in his heart: "Yes."
Chu Huan showed a weird smile: "Then I can rest assured."
When Yuan Ping saw his expression, he knew that something was not so good. He immediately became alert and looked around with sweat all over his body. Suddenly, he reacted: "Wait, there seems to be a mountain drop here..."
Lu Ge sighed, referring to Chu Huan, the "child of someone else's family," to teach Yuan Ping, "Don't always make a fuss."
Yuan Ping wailed: "No, no, no Patriarch, he can't trust the dead peacock, there is..."
The rope on his wrist was pulled abruptly, Yuan Ping got stuck in his throat in one breath, and even Nan Shan was almost unsteady. The big water came to the end, and there was no buffer underneath. It was a big waterfall going up and down. Straight up and down like a star river.
In this way, a few people followed Yuan Ping's screams and fell three thousand feet down the waterfall.
Yuan Ping: "I don't want to sit on a flush toilet at all-patriarch, don't ask me what a flush toilet is..."
The "bubble" boat carried by four people miraculously did not fall apart in front of the waterfall, the fire of the scepter was always wrapped in it, solid as a rock, and several people rolled into the waterfall like a radiant spherical crystal. The deep pool under.
The water came down from above, containing huge energy, and the four people floated in the water involuntarily for a long time until they approached a place where the terrain gradually slowed down, and then they found the opportunity to climb onto the shore.
Nan Shan's knees softened as soon as his feet touched the ground. It was not easy for him to maintain that "bubble". Chu Huan quickly retrieved the man before he fell, Yuan Ping leaned like a dead dog. He lay down on the ground and refused to move. Lu Ge had to agree to rest in place.
Nan Shan leaned on Chu Huan's knees and closed his eyes to rest. Yuan Ping didn't move. Lu Ge stood on the side and counted the distance in silence. Chu Huan had nothing to do, so he sat silently while thinking.
He grabbed a handful of pebbles on the ground and remembered that a certain problem was known, so he put a pebble on the left, which was half-understandable, he put a pebble in the middle, completely unknown. Put it on the far right.
After smoothing his thoughts from the beginning, Chu Huan energized the row of stones in the middle alone. According to his experience, there is nothing that is completely understood or completely ignorant. The most dangerous things always come from a little understanding.
Knowing his habit, Yuan Ping quickly got up and sat cross-legged across from him when he saw this movement, pretending to be a fool, and said, "If you don't understand anything, I'll give you the details."
Chu Huan raised his eyelids lazily, glanced at him with a faint smile, tossed the pebble in his hand twice and caught it: "Okay, come here and I will tell you."
Little green "hissed" the snake letter.
Yuan Ping found that it was better for him to break off friendship with this person.
Immediately, Chu Huan narrowed his smile, grabbed a handful of stones and turned them in his hands: "The first question, is ‘it’ a whole or a group?"
Yuan Ping was taken aback, and even Nan Shan who was lying in Chu Huan's arms opened his eyes.
Yuan Ping: "What's the difference?"
"I can't say it yet, but I always think this question is very important." Chu Huan shook his head, put down a stone, and then twisted the second one. "The next question, it takes only half a day from the wizard to the valley of their race. I think he and his own people should have been swallowed for about the same time. Why did the other people look okay, but he is dead? No, I’m not saying that he was beheaded by us, but that he was beheaded. Before, he was already weak and dying."
Yuan Ping sat upright from a twisted state, bowed his head and was silent for a moment: "Your problem is too complicated, you have to split it."
Chu Huan: "Okay, you open it."
The two of them sat opposite each other in the remote country and the wilderness, and they returned to the days when they reluctantly partnered in a trance.
Chu Huan and Yuan Ping each knew that the other party was a scam, but they had to admit that the other party could be reliable once in a while.
Nan Shan was completely awake, and even Lu Ge dignifiedly approached him, carrying his unpredictable water ghost...No, the mountain god was on the shelf and listened very carefully.
Yuan Ping: "First of all, does ‘it’ really eat people? Assume that ‘it’ eats people and animals, but the people and animals in this world are always limited. What should I do if I eat ‘it’ one day?”
Chu Huan put a stone on his left hand side: "I believed in it at first, but now I suspect it is not-we have walked so long and found that no one here needs to eat. After so long, they rely on What is alive?"
Yuan Ping: "So?"
Chu Huan: "So'it' is not eating people, on the contrary, I suspect that'it' is raising these people."
When Chu Huan spoke, his chest and abdomen vibrated slightly. His voice was not high, just like a whisper, and a little low, which made Nan Shan feel a little worried. Nan Shan knew what they were saying was very important, so he quickly coughed and left Chu Huan’s arms and sat up. With a serious expression: "Go on, then?"
Yuan Ping: "Following the question above, ‘it’ raises these people, what kind of support is used and why?"
Chu Huangang wanted to answer, and then he seemed to think of something again. He stopped talking for a while, his eyes drifting slightly by the dark river.
Nan Shan stared at him without blinking, "What did you think of?"
"The order of those monsters," Chu Huan murmured, "Look... the flat people are similar to humans, they are mammal-like, and Mutai has a wing-like membrane behind it, which seems to be between mammals and birds. Sound beasts are reptiles, Eye eater beasts are insects, invertebrates, small white flowers and phantom monkeys... They are not animals at all."
This time, without waiting for further questioning, Chu Huan’s speech speed suddenly accelerated: "Did you find out? As their combat effectiveness increases, their form is equivalent to degenerating. I suspect this implies that the body of'it' is also a kind of comparison. Lower organisms—plants and even some fungi—can use solar energy."
"You answered'how to raise', but did not answer why." Yuan Ping said, "Furthermore, why'it' confines people's consciousness? The wizard's consciousness has always been sober, but he still has nothing to do. Even those who are "awakened" by us still cannot move their bodies. "It" paralyzes people's bodies in a certain way. Why is it necessary to release hallucinations on a large scale to imprison their consciousness? This is not taking off their pants. Fart?"
Lu Ge listened attentively, and nodded involuntarily, then realized what he had done, the embarrassment flashed on his face.
Chu Huan didn't say a word, frowned and thought, Nan Shan stared at his profile and held his breath involuntarily.
Yuan Ping did not wait for him, and then he asked the last question: "Return to your previous question-why the wizard is dead and his people are still alive? In my opinion, the only difference between them lies in the wizard's Consciousness is sober."
"I... have a guess." After a long time, Chu Huan broke the silence and said softly, "Those people whose consciousness is trapped in it have become part of'it'. Is it even possible that the vast cloud of shadows that spread so fast is... …The one swallowed?"
Yuan Ping went on to say: "The wizard's body is imprisoned, but his consciousness is clear, so'it' cannot completely assimilate him. Accordingly, the wizard's energy supply is very limited."
The two looked at each other and realized a problem at the same time, and their hair became frightened...If their inferences were correct, then would those so-called "awakened" people follow in the footsteps of their wizards for a while?
Do you want to live forever in sinking, or do you want to die quickly in resistance?
