dark blood

Jiang Xiaowen led a few members of the Eagle Team, drew out a sharp blade to chop left and right, quickly cut off the tough thorn bushes along the way, opened a path, and gradually approached the giant black rose bush.

The strange fragrance was very attractive, and Jiang Xiaowen couldn't help taking a few deep breaths. The rich floral fragrance was inhaled into her lungs, and she didn't feel any discomfort.

"There should be no danger."

Jiang Xiaowen thought of this, and when she was about to turn her head to greet others, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly found many bones that were difficult to detect with the naked eye in the grass under the long stem of the giant flower.Her heart moved immediately, she observed the surroundings vigilantly, and then continued to approach the giant flower.

When Jiang Xiaowen walked ten meters away from the first huge rose, the giant flower suddenly shook twice, as if it had spirituality. The huge flower was like a radar for detecting targets, and it quickly turned towards Jiang Xiaowen.

Jiang Xiaowen clearly saw that the black petals bloomed quickly one by one. When the last petal opened, a huge hole was exposed in the center of the flower. Inside the hole was straight into the plant stem, full of sharp teeth. It's like a huge mouth.The black rose rose from the ground extremely swiftly, and the stem stretched several times like a rubber band, covering the big mouth in the center of the blooming flower towards a person.

"careful!"

Jiang Xiaowen yelled, threw the long knife in her hand, and inserted it into the big mouth of the flower. The giant flower made a strange sound and flinched back a bit.Jiang Xiaowen immediately pulled out the spear and swung it on the huge black rose. The heavy blow broke the stem directly, and some pungent juice sprayed out from it.The other rose-shaped black flowers all moved as if they were stimulated, and the flowers opened quickly, revealing their ferocious cracked mouths, and rushed towards several people swiftly.

Their attack speed is fast and sudden.

Although one of them avoided the big mouth to swallow, his skin was accidentally scratched by the sharp thorns on the thick rhizome. A feeling of softness and numbness hit his whole body in the blink of an eye, and he immediately fell limp.A flower seized the opportunity to envelope him.

Once the creature is swallowed by the giant flower, the densely packed sharp teeth in the esophagus will instantly tear it into pieces. The giant flower is highly poisonous, and there is no hope of escape at all.

Seeing this, Yunyun shot an arrow from a long distance away.Because the incident happened suddenly, there was no time to condense the blessing of the fire element.The moment the white luminous bowstring was pulled apart, a magical force was instantly condensed into a luminous energy arrow. As soon as the hand was released, with a whoosh sound, the magic arrow shot out from the mouth of a black flower. After entering, the astonishing power tore half of the strange flower apart. After all, it was a top-grade white weapon, and its power was really impressive.

Xiao Yu rushed forward quickly, pulling the man out of the danger zone.Jiang Xiaowen also quickly backed away from the dangerous clump of black piranhas.

Han Kexin looked at the large sea of ​​flowers in front of him, and sighed: "Such beautiful flowers, I didn't expect them to be a group of monsters eating people."

Xiao Yu said: "According to observations, the attack range of each piranha is about eight meters." He glanced at the immobile Eagle team member, "Moreover, the thorns contain a strong paralyzing toxin, and the effect is quite fast. , almost the moment of being injured, the toxin will spread along the wound to the whole body."

Zhao Changping made a visual inspection of the surrounding area, and finally shook his head: "There are a lot of plants like this distributed in front, and there are many poisonous rhizome thorns on the ground. This road won't work, we have to change the route."

Without any consideration, Xiao Yu immediately nodded in agreement: "We went back the same way and found a new route..."

There are too many black cannibal roses, and those poisonous thorns are distributed in the jungle, making it hard to defend against. The toxin is quite powerful, and can instantly paralyze the whole body of junior soldiers and make them unable to move.It is certain that this piece of woods cannot continue to pass through, and they had to go back the same way as they had no choice.Choose a relatively rugged and steep mountain road.

Because the mountains and forests are complex and there are countless similar obstacles, this directly makes the task of climbing the mountain road extremely difficult. When you encounter similar troubles that are not easy to solve, you will usually go straight ahead and eradicate all troubles directly. Of course, if conditions Allowed, avoiding is also a wise choice without spending more energy and time.

Back then in the Misty Valley, surrounded by continuous tall and straight mountains, the slope was extremely steep, and it was almost impossible to climb over. If you avoided it, it would take ten times the time to bypass these areas. This approach is not advisable.Now that one road is blocked, we just have to change to another road.Of course, there may be dangers anywhere. No one can guarantee that after changing the route, it will be easier to walk than before. Walking on this land sometimes requires luck and the awareness to face danger.

Everyone retreated to the original place and continued to advance along the new route. It didn't take long to follow a rugged path that slanted upwards, and continued to advance around a dangerous path that hovered between the cliffs.

…………

This mountain is not very high, but it is very long, spanning tens of kilometers.One side of the mountain seemed to have slipped off, forming an almost ninety-degree cliff, as if it had been cut open. The relatively flat cliff revealed a blue rock wall, with only a few sparse plants growing.Everyone was in a gap in the cliff, along a path that was only one meter wide, with their backs against the rock wall, their front facing the cliff, and their feet at a height of more than 600 meters, moving slowly forward.

The day was sunny, sunny, and cloudless, and the vision was very clear. There was a refreshing gust of wind blowing in the air at an altitude of more than 600 meters. Looking up at the vast and majestic land under my feet, I saw mountains within a hundred miles. Green peaks and low valleys, strange rocks and waterfalls can be said to have a panoramic view at a glance.

The scorching sun hangs obliquely and hangs on the horizon. Under the sunlight, when the field of view is enlarged, hundreds of people are walking in the narrow mountain gaps, like a small group of ants, so small and insignificant.The blue sky is half washed by the setting sun, and the vast land is full of epic magnificence.It makes people's minds expand, and there is an urge to yell.

This spectacle cannot be described in words, even the best poet in the world will be overwhelmed by the magnificent scene of nature at this moment.

Walking along the cliff, the way down was very smooth. At night, I lit a fire in a fault cliff overnight.Outside is the Baizhang cliff, and the entrance is just a long gap of half a person's height. The whole space is quite large, more than enough to squeeze hundreds of people, and most importantly, it is safe enough here.

Take out the prepared dry firewood and start several fires for heating and cooking food at night.

Xiao Yu took out the pots and bowls one by one from the storage ring, and took out the corpses of a few deer-like monsters he had hunted not long ago, and handed them over to the crowd for cooking as food for the evening.

Outside the crack, the wind is still blowing.

Xiao Yu walked out of the space, stood on the edge, and looked up at the vast land covered by darkness.

The moon is bright in the sky, and countless stars are piled up together, like a beautiful long river, flowing in the dark sky, shining brightly.Under the silver moonlight, the forest fell into a deep sleep, without sound, and occasionally there were a few monster roars from unknown places.

Xiao Yu looked at the sky in a daze.

Jiang Xiaowen came up from behind, "Everyone has prepared food, and I left a portion for you."

Xiao Yu nodded, but did not speak.

Jiang Xiaowen walked up to him, looked up at the sky, and suddenly said, "The stars in the sky are the same as the universe, are they all planets?"

Xiao Yu: "I don't know."

Jiang Xiaowen dreamed: "Maybe we are still in the previous universe, but we just came to a special star field, and a certain star in the sky is the earth."

Xiao Yu didn't speak, turned around and said, "Stop thinking about it, take a good rest."

Jiang Xiaowen looked at Xiao Yu who walked away silently, and the words that Xiao Yu, who turned into a phantom demon, said to her that day rang in her mind again, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad.Those words must have been buried in his mind for a long time, but now...

Jiang Xiaowen looked at the forest, where there were row upon row of strange, steep and evil peaks, each of which held up to the sky and giant pillars, piercing the Milky Way. She shrugged, sighed helplessly, turned around and walked back.

After resting overnight, we set off on the journey again the next day. The mountain fog in the morning has not dissipated. Compared with the magnificent scene in the evening yesterday, the dense white mist curls up like a veil, just like being in a fairyland.

Of course, this fog is very light and thin, and it is by no means the misty illusion of the phantom demon.

Everyone packed up their equipment, walked out of the space on the mountain wall, and continued to stick to the mountain wall, moving cautiously.

At first, the road was very smooth, without any accidents. After walking for a long time, when we reached the narrowest area, there were suddenly sharp chirping sounds in the sky.Hundreds of giant birds soared into the sky, spread their wings six to seven meters wide, and were flying towards them quickly. Their targets were the people on the cliff.

"not good!"

Zhao Changping was shocked.

These giant birds are covered with black feathers, look like eagles but not eagles, with four claws, they are swooping down at an astonishing speed.Xiao Yu directly threw a blasting flame ball into the air. Amidst the violent explosion, five or six giant birds were blown down. Han Kexin immediately used the magic ring to launch a blasting flame, blasting down many giant birds.

Zhao Changping ran out a lightning ball. The destructive power of this skill was not as great as that of the Explosive Flame Curse, but it had a better effect in this situation. The scattered electric current hit more than a dozen giant birds at the same time, causing them to lose consciousness from a high altitude. fall down.

Yun Yun drew her bow and shot a blessed "Arrow of Violent Fire Element", blowing down two or three giant birds.

There were too many strange birds, and after this round of attacks, they quickly approached the cliff.

"Come closer to me!"

Xiao Yu shouted, Han Kexin and the others around him immediately gathered towards Xiao Yu, the ring of water wall in Xiao Yu's hand shone with light, and a stream of water gushed out from it, forming a barrier in front of him.A few strange birds slammed into it heavily, leaving only a few ripples on the water wall, but they failed to break through.

Others were not so lucky. The monster bird attacked once and immediately made everyone panic. Several people stumbled and fell from the cliff hundreds of meters high. Eighty-nine bones are gone.
