Across the Ancients: Wild Beastman Haunted

Chapter 162 The Flower of the Barrier
Chapter 162 The Flower of the Barrier
Luo Gu got up and looked towards the ditch in front of him.

"Can I ask a question?" Chi Zhen really didn't want to understand, and asked.

"The white-horned stone beast was very human when it was young." Luo Gu knew what she wanted to ask, "I came here with it so as not to waken the grown-up white-horned stone beast."

An adult white-horned stone beast?She didn't remember seeing any grown-ups when she walked through the woods.

"Look over there." Luo Gu pointed in a direction to the right.

Chi Zhenzhen looked in the direction of his finger, it was the edge of the grove, and there was a big stone outside the edge.

"Is there any magic about that stone?" Chi Zhenzhen asked puzzled.

"look carefully."

Chi Zhenzhen blinked, even if she looked at her intently, she didn't see anything unusual about the big rock outside the edge of the forest.

She had no choice but to take a picture with the bronze mirror, and when the words 'white-horned stone beast' appeared on the bronze mirror, she was stunned.

How could a bronze mirror show the names of animals facing a stone?
Is it...

A terrible guess came to Chi Zhenzhen's mind.

In order to confirm this guess, Chi Zhenzhen took a picture of the small forest with a bronze mirror, and as expected, the introduction of the white-horned stone beast was still displayed on the bronze mirror.

Chi Zhenzhen swallowed to calm herself down, no wonder she felt flustered and out of breath when she passed through this grove just now.

Because this small forest grows on the body of a huge adult white-horned stone beast!

The big rock that Luo Gu pointed to her was the head of an adult white-horned stone beast!
This huge adult white-horned stone beast... is too huge.

"If, I mean, if this adult white-horned stone beast is awakened, what terrible consequences will there be?" After knowing this fact, Chi Zhenzhen asked in a low voice.

"I don't know, I haven't encountered it before." Luo Gu answered her, "Okay little thing, we are safe now, don't think about it."

That's right, Chi Zhenzhen smiled, and looked towards the ditch in front of him. Opposite was a vertical and steep mountain wall. It was not easy to jump over with Luo Gu's beast shape.

Therefore, we had to go down into the ditch to see if there was any other way to go there.

Luo Gu hugged Chi Zhenzhen and jumped down, standing on a big raised rock surrounded by colorful flowers and plants.

Chi Zhenzhen used the bronze mirror to identify them one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more surprised he became.

These colorful flowers and plants are all very rare flowers and plants. At least half of the flowers and plants can only be found in this ditch in the entire Beastman Continent.

However, although there are many rare flowers and plants, most of them are poisonous.

Just like the purple flower she identified now, the sap of the stem is extremely corrosive, and the effect of accidentally touching the human skin is the same as splashing sulfuric acid.

Chi Zhenzhen withdrew his gaze and looked at Luo Gu: "These flowers and plants are very bright, and the brighter they are, the more poisonous they are."

"Toxic?" Luo Gu remembered that she had mentioned poison before, which is something that hurts people.

"Yes, some flowers and grass people will feel uncomfortable when they touch it." Chi Zhenzhen nodded, "And there are fewer strange rocks protruding from this ditch than flowers and plants. Can you find the way?"

Seeing Luo Gu's confident expression of not wanting to be underestimated, Chi Zhenzhen knew she was talking nonsense.

From the weak soil to the stone forest, and then to the huge white-horned stone beast, which step did he not walk through safely?

So, he must know the safe way to Tallinn, and she needn't worry about it at all.

Chi Zhenzhen remained silent, as long as people followed him.

"Follow." Luo Gu stepped down from the stone, as if he was going to step on these flowers and plants.

Chi Zhenzhen was a little worried.

"Follow my footsteps and nothing will happen." Luo Gu had already stepped on the stone and stretched out his hand towards her.

Chi really believed him, and stretched out his hand to hold him firmly.

Fortunately, she was wearing long trousers and shoes, and her legs would not feel uncomfortable when walking among such flowers and plants.

Gradually, she discovered the regularity of Luo Gu's wayfinding. He didn't step on every flower and grass, but stepped on a pile of grass that looked like weeds.

Although these weeds are everywhere in the ravine, at first glance, the location where these weeds grow... actually formed a road, just like a marked road.

How careful it is to discover this pattern... Chi Zhenzhen couldn't help giving Luo Gu a thumbs up in his heart.

Luo Gu stepped on these weeds and walked to a mountain wall on the opposite side. The mountain wall was covered with many green leafy vines, and on the roots of the vines grew handfuls of big white flowers that were taller than a person.

The flowers are also strangely long. Normally, one root stem bears one flower, but these large white flowers can produce eight or nine flowers on a single rhizome, and all of them grow from the entire rhizome.

"The entrance of Tallinn." Luo Gu held her hand tightly.

Chi Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and he began to get nervous.

Luo Gu was going to stretch out his hands to push away the rhizomes with big white flowers.

"Wait." Chi Zhenzhen hurriedly stopped him, "Don't touch it yet, what if the flower is poisonous?"

Luo Gu laughed, and asked back according to her words: "How do you know whether it is poisonous or not?"

"You'll know if it's poisonous or not." Chi Zhenzhen took out the bronze mirror.

It stands to reason that since this is the entrance of Tallinn, the big white flowers at the entrance may be a poisonous cover-up.

After all, he said before that Tallinn is not dangerous, but the road to Tallinn is dangerous.

Soon the names of these big white flowers were displayed on the bronze mirror.

Barrier flower.

"..." What kind of fantasy name is this? You can tell the function of this flower just by looking at the name.

"How is it? Is it poisonous?" Luo Gu glanced at the thing in her hand, it was blank.

Chi Zhenzhen coughed lightly, and put away the bronze mirror: "The flower of the barrier is non-toxic, but the root is very hard, and ordinary people can't break it, um... I know you are not an ordinary person."

Luo Gu laughed, stretched out his hand and opened one.

Chi Zhenzhen saw that he was breaking without any pressure, but the root that was broken was like a piece of steel, maintaining the posture of being broken to the side, and did not bounce back because Luo Gu let go.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Gu opened a few more, and a dark cave was vaguely revealed from behind the small white flowers.

The two of them passed through the barrier flower and came to the hidden small cave.

Chi Zhenzhen looked back, these barrier flowers were still in the posture of being torn apart, only the one that Luo Gu tossed at the beginning was slowly returning to its original shape.

"I want to try." She was very curious, wanting to know how hard the root of this barrier flower is.

Luo Gu let go and let her try.

Chi Zhenzhen rubbed her hands, ready to use her best strength.

She picked up the nearest one, grasped it with both hands, and shook it hard to the side.

"..."

Chi Zhenzhen bit his back teeth and tried again.

"..."

Even if she blushed and pulled her red hands, the roots of the barrier flower remained motionless.

This barrier flower is simply harder than steel!

"These flowers can't even be moved by ordinary half-orcs, let alone purebred people." Luo Gu teased her.
