Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 401 Unfavorable start (2)
Duanmu Tian and Jun Xiuran stood at the junction of the two clans, looking at the lush and dense forest ahead, their gazes could not help but become more serious.

A flash of surprise flashed across Jun Xiuran's eyes, and he said, "I've heard that the forest here is very strange, and I've made a lot of investigations to find out a lot these days, and they all say it's weird and strange. It’s very different from other places.”

The overly dense jungle, the humid air, and the strong sense of crisis that he felt suddenly when he approached here all made him feel that this place was different from the places he had been to before.

They are just standing on the edge.

When Duanmu Tian heard his words, he turned his head and glanced at him, his eyes were slightly soft, his heart relaxed a little, and he said with a light smile: "After you go in, there will be even more weird and strange things."

Jun Xiuran also turned his head to look at her, his eyes flickered thoughtfully, and he finally said, "Tian Tian doesn't seem to be surprised by this place at all, as if he has been here before and is quite familiar with it."

Duanmu Tian was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look at the lush jungle in front of him, pursed the corners of his mouth, and his expression was suddenly stern.

His head suddenly sank slightly, and warm breath penetrated into his heart from the top of his head, and his voice rang softly in his ears: "Everything that should be prepared has already been prepared, let's go in now, go in early and get the things, and go back early The little guy cried for a long time when he realized that he was going to be separated from us for a while and didn't play with him, and now I don't know if he is continuing to torment Cong'an and the others."

She looked up at him and said in a daze, "Don't you ask?"

He looked down at her, the two of them were very close, so close that they could clearly breathe each other's breath, and their breaths were intertwined.

"Do you want to talk?"

She shook her head, and he said again: "Since you don't want to say it, then let's not say it."

"Aren't you curious?"

"I'm curious about everything about Tiantian."

"Then why don't you keep asking?"

"You don't want to say, how can I make things difficult for you?"

She looked at him, the brilliance in her eyes was floating, she didn't know what she was thinking, she didn't know what she thought of, she suddenly shook her head and said: "I just think some things are too unbelievable, if I didn't experience it myself, but only Hearing people talk about this kind of thing, you will definitely think that person is insane."

He smiled and kissed her forehead, and said, "As long as it's what you say, no matter how incredible it is, I will believe it."

"Oh, that sounds nice. I find that you have become more and more sweet-talking lately."

"Thanks to Tian Tian's good training."

The corners of her mouth were slightly curved, and she was instantly amazed.

She is also smiling more and more.

Just thinking about the past, she couldn't help smiling again, and said softly: "Sometimes, I can't help being in a trance like a dream, thinking that everything I have now is just a dream, and when I wake up, it will be just a dream. I found out that everything is back to square one, back to the original thing.”

Jun Xiuran suddenly tightened his arms around her slender waist, and frowned slightly, "Don't say such things."

"Makes you uneasy?"

"Ah."

"Sorry. But those things are long stories, and they can't be explained clearly in just a few sentences. Even if I want to tell you, I don't know where to start and what to say. So, I always Let me tell you little by little."

"it is good!"

The topic stopped there, and the two of them turned their eyes to the dense jungle in front of them, and then walked in holding hands.

They traveled on foot, and the horses they had ridden along the way were placed in a safe place outside.

Every step of the way in this jungle is dangerous, and riding a horse in it is absolutely courting death.

The entrance is a place similar to a canyon, three or four meters wide, with slopes that are no taller than people on both sides, where towering trees grow so densely that the sun cannot be seen, and the shade of the trees extends outwards directly to the sky above the canyon. covered together.

As soon as I entered, I felt a sudden darkness in front of my eyes, as if I had entered some deep hole, and there was a hot and humid breath rushing towards my face, which made people feel very stuffy, and even Jun Xiuran couldn't help but hold his breath for a while.

"According to the map drawn by my concubine, we enter from here and walk straight forward for about five or six miles. We will see a river. Walk along the upper reaches of the river. After walking about twenty miles, we can hear the sound of the waterfall. Go to the waterfall, go up the waterfall and go up the river for fifteen miles, then turn south into the jungle, go south until you see a mountain in the distance, which is the only mountain in the territory of the Zhengyu tribe. Like a pen standing upside down in a dense jungle, straight up to the sky. Go to the place where the mountain peak is, but don’t go up, but go around under the mountain peak to the west, walk to a huge sea of ​​flowers, and then go north, and you will soon be there. If traces of human existence can be found, it will not be very difficult to find the real territory of the Yu Clan."

Jun Xiuran took her hand and walked forward, paying attention to the movement around her all the time, and said softly, "If you really follow this way, you will make a huge circle."

Isn't it?Their current direction is heading west. I heard that the river also runs east-west, that is to say, it will go west for about fifty miles, then turn south, and then go around under the only mountain in the jungle and continue on. West, and then north, isn't it just a big circle?If you take the shortest route, you should cross the river to the other bank after entering the jungle, and then walk about [-] miles west and slightly north, and you will be able to reach a place where there are probably people from the Yu tribe.

And the route on the map is several times longer than the shortest path.

But even so, neither of them wanted to give up the long and winding road and choose a shortcut, because the exhortations of the father and mother before leaving the capital were still ringing in their ears: "It's too dangerous there. They are all murderous intentions, and there are so many dangers that you can't even think about that can kill you in an instant, and it's too late to turn around. In that place, human life is too fragile, sometimes even worse than a bug. Don't be greedy for time , you must take this route, which is a relatively safe route we know, although it seems far away."

A few days before leaving the capital, Concubine Xian took Jun Xiuran and Duanmu Tian and talked a lot, telling them all the things she knew and experienced, for fear that they would also encounter those who didn't even know her. I don't know how to deal with it.

Later, Duanmu Tian dragged Concubine Xian to talk with her in the palace for a long time, after that Concubine Xian didn't continue to chatter, but the eyes she looked at Duanmu Tian were unavoidably strange and surprised.

This girl knows more, more detailed and more terrifying than her.

But Duanmutian still has no intention of abandoning the long road and taking the short cut. Although her understanding of the rainforest cannot be more detailed than her in this world, it is because the more she knows, the more afraid she becomes. , Sometimes when I think about it, I suddenly find myself covered in cold sweat.

What is a detour?But it just takes a few more days. After so many years, do you still care about a few days?
Duanmu Tian is still very relaxed at the moment, after all, they have just entered the jungle, that is to say, this is only the outermost edge of the jungle, basically there is not much danger, and there are people guarding around her, so she doesn't need to worry for the time being.

Then he stopped suddenly, stared straight ahead, and asked, "Tian Tian, ​​what is that?"

"spider."

"Oh, a spider." He reached out and touched his chin, continued to stare straight at the eight-legged monster that was said to be a spider, and sighed, "I've never seen such a beautiful spider."

"The more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it is."

"No wonder this king is covered in poison."

"..."

"Is this thing poisonous?"

"Ah."

"How poisonous."

"It's as poisonous as it is beautiful to you."

"What happens if you get bitten by it?"

"It's almost like being bitten by you."

"So poisonous?"

"Ah."

"What now? It seems to be in our way."

This spider, which is called beautiful by the three Highnesses, is indeed very beautiful, with dazzling colors, and of course its poison will also dazzle people.

Not only is it poisonous, but it is also quite huge. The back alone is almost ten inches in size, with eight furry legs, stretching their teeth and claws in the very center of the passageway there, and it is made of crystal clear spider silk. The huge net directly sealed this narrow passageway tightly.

Or can they take a detour?Anyway, the slopes on both sides are not too high...

On the slopes on both sides, among the dense trees, pieces are crystal clear and colorful.

Jun Xiuran held his chin lightly, no amount of colorful spiders could block his radiance, he was as beautiful as an evildoer, and the flashing purple light was even more enchanting, he looked up and murmured: "Are spiders living in groups? ?”

"Maybe."

Duanmu Tian looked at the densely packed beautiful spiders in front of his head, and couldn't help feeling his scalp tingle.

what happened?Isn't this just outside?
The spiders also seemed to have discovered their existence, and began to crawl slowly on their respective webs, approaching this side a little bit.

Jun Xiuran pulled her back a step away from these things, and asked, "Are they afraid of fire?"

"All spiders are afraid of fire."

"Oh!"

"I have to remind you of one thing, if I remember correctly, this thing seems to hold a grudge."

"In other words, I either burn them all to death, or turn around and leave, or wait for their revenge in the future?"

"That's probably what happened."
