Chapter 10 Dream Eating Flower Nest
It's been more than twenty days since Hank's adventures have been in this vast silent forest.
As time passed, all kinds of strange flowers and plants in the forest, all kinds of strange things happened around this small adventure group, and today, Hank has led his adventure party to the deepest part of the third level of the Silent Forest.
Hank was still at the head of the group, came to a small clearing, looked at the sky overhead was obscured by all kinds of trees and flowers, and finally stopped, "It's getting dark, let's go here today," "Thin man, Eber, you two go and see what is going on." ”
The thin man and the man on the upper body responded, and quickly got into the forest in front of them together, and the deeper they went into the forest, the more carefully they had to check around the place where they rested every day to make sure it was safe.
Hank found a piece of dead wood and sat down, untied his things, looked at the way and said with some confusion: "Why hasn't the fat man come back yet?"
Teemo was silent all the way, and he didn't speak for almost a day after Tianxian appeared, listening to Hank talking to himself as if talking about Tianxian, he couldn't help but say lightly: "Maybe something happened, you shouldn't let that fat man act alone." ”
"It's just a safe place to get some water, and there's still a day to spare. Hank didn't care.
"That's what I'm worried about. Timo glanced at the way he came, "We've entered the depths of the third layer of the Silent Forest, Captain, even if you are more sure, this kind of thing should be over, and if we let that kid go unchecked, we may get into huge trouble before we get anything." ”
Most people couldn't help frowning at Timo's salty words.
"Teemo, you speak as if you're the leader. Luna sneered, not carrying anything, just leaning lightly against the tree.
Instead of looking at Luna, Teemo dug out the food in his package, "An outsider, don't comment on me. ”
"Outsiders!?" Luna's emerald green eyes twitched slightly, faintly glowing in the dim forest, "You weren't born when I walked with Hank. ”
"It's a pity that now I'm the deputy head of the regiment. There was a sneer in Timo's brown eyes.
"Oh...... You think it's your strength that earns you this title. Luna's body left the trunk of the tree, and the forest in the setting sun was dim, and the light and shadow on her body flickered, which made her figure look a little blurry, but the glimmer of her eyes was much brighter.
Teemo's expression tightened, and he took two steps back, grasping the sword at his waist, his face grim.
"Okay......" Hank rubbed his head helplessly, "We're ...... now"
Before Hank could finish speaking, a burst of laughter could be heard from the woods, and a heavy but hurried footstep could be faintly heard approaching.
Hearing this laughter, most people showed helplessness on their faces.
"The little thing left the fat man behind again. Luna's gaze took away from Teemo, and she sighed as she looked at the forest, "It's time for the fat man to lose weight, he can't even outrun a ten-year-old child." ”
Before Luna could finish speaking, a vine slammed out of the woods.
With a happy laugh, a small figure leaped down from the vine, stretched out in mid-air, crossed a parabola and fell, shrinking as it approached the ground, and rolled directly onto the forest ground full of soft dead leaves, not far in front of Luna.
The figure circled twice and quickly jumped up from the ground.
Tianxian's body was stained with dead branches and leaves, but his face was full of excitement, and he jumped in front of Luna step by step, and raised an item in his hand, "Sister Luna, see what I found?"
More than 20 days have passed, and Tian Xian is no longer as seriously injured and difficult to move as he was at the beginning, but now his whole body is full of vitality, and there are not many traces of injuries on his body.
"Tianxian, don't swing around with the rattan of the mother vine, didn't I already warn you, even if it is not the catcher vine...... Huh?" Luna was about to teach Tian Xian a lesson, when she suddenly saw what Tian Xian was holding and was surprised.
At this time, everyone also looked at Tianxian's hand, and after seeing that thing clearly, they were all surprised.
In Tian Xian's hand is a palm-sized golden flower, lantern-shaped, in the flower, the half-golden viscous liquid is exuding a charming halo, even in the dim light of the forest dusk, this liquid still looks crystal clear, even the petals are dyed by this golden liquid into a brilliant gold.
"Dream Eater's Hive?"
Luna screamed after repeated confirmations, and the others were even more surprised to hear this, and quickly came up to her.
"Oh...... It's really the nest of dream eaters!" Fang Liang's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.
"It's so fragrant!" Mo Sang, who was carrying three long knives on his waist, sniffed, "If only I could eat a little......
"Huh!?" Luna frowned.
Seeing the obvious dissatisfaction in Luna's eyes, Mo Sang immediately smacked his lips and muttered, "It's just talking......"
"Hmph, this thing was brought back in the middle of the day, if anyone dares to make up their minds......" Luna's tone was full of warning.
Everyone shook their heads quickly.
Luna looked at the flower left and right, her emerald green eyes dyed golden by the glow of the liquid in the flower, and she was clearly fond of it.
But in the end, Luna sighed regretfully, reached out and scratched Tianxian's little face, and carefully loosened the flower, "Be careful, this is a very valuable thing." ”
"It was given to Sister Luna at this time!" said Tian Xian happily, "You didn't say you wanted this a few days ago, I just found one today!"
Luna was stunned, "Give me ......"
"Hmm!" Tian Xian nodded, "Such a beautiful flower, of course, for the beautiful Sister Luna!"
Luna was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, the kid just thought the flower was beautiful.
couldn't help but reach out and pinch Tianxian's nose, Luna asked with a smile, "Is it some kind of idea to please my sister so much?"
Tianxian immediately shook his head, "What's the matter, Sister Luna doesn't have a stigma, even if I make up my mind, I'll go and pay attention to Uncle Hank." ”
"Haha!" Luna laughed.
"Dream Eater Bee's flower nest is very difficult to find, and even in the Silent Forest it is very rare, so I didn't expect to see one this time. Luna was visibly amused, and her fingers swirled lightly around the flower, as if stirring something.
A wisp of golden breath suddenly floated up from the flower.
The golden aura was like mist, and there was no wind in the forest, but it quickly spread out in all directions.
Everyone exclaimed in unison, and there was a strange sound in the golden mist, as if something was howling irritably, and there seemed to be something breathing gently, and faintly the light and shadow in the golden mist flickered, and it seemed that something had the form of something......
Before everyone could see and hear what it was, the golden mist had completely dispersed, and all sounds and forms had dissipated......
"It's a high-quality flower nest!" Luna was pleasantly surprised.
Everyone looked at the dissipated light, their eyes were extremely bizarre, and Tianxian was even wider-eyed, his eyes gurgling, as if he was thinking about something.
"Luna, I've heard of this too, but ...... What's the use?Eat?" Mo Sang, who was wearing his pigtails, made a discordant sound again at this time.
"Do you know anything other than your knife and your food?" Luna glared at him.
Mo Sang frowned, thought about it seriously, and was about to answer, when Fang Liang had already pressed his mouth.
This guy really has a tendon in his head! Fang Liang was a little helpless, if he spoke again, he would definitely make Luna angry, how could this thing be eaten......
Although she was a little annoyed by Mosan's question, Luna was in a good mood now, looking at the flower nest in her hand, and explained with a smile: "Dream eating bees have no fixed place, and the flowers that are flower nests are never fixed, they will eat the honey after they are full of honey from a flower, and then mate to lay eggs, a flower nest from the accumulation of honey to the complete consumption, at most can only be stored for a short period of a month, in terms of quantity, this kind of thing is very rare, even in the silent forest, it is difficult to see." ”
"The honey in the flower nest is infused with the dreams that the dream-eating bees get from other creatures, and it is the best material for making zuò magic medicine, which is very popular among the elites of the major powers, and it is an out-and-out treasure. ”
"Illusion Elixir ......" Fang Liang looked pensive, "That kind of thing...... It's better not to touch it. ”
Luna smiled, "Humans only spend their minds on extravagance, and the things they make are naturally untouchable, but there are many kinds of magic medicines, and some others...... It's something that's really priceless!"
"It's a pity...... Luna shook her head regretfully, "this flower nest only has half of the honey in it, otherwise it would be worth ...... Huh?"
Luna, who was a little regretful, was stunned for a moment, and then took a closer look at the flower nest, each petal of the flower nest was soaked with golden honey syrup, apparently the honey syrup had been filled with the flower nest, and there seemed to be traces of honey rolling on the inner wall of the petals.
"How is it half missing!?" Luna frowned.
Tian Xian hurriedly licked off the dark golden marks at the corners of his mouth, blinked his eyes, and stretched out his hand to point behind his back, "It's the fat man who drank it!"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The fat man who was wheezing and panting, carrying a big water bladder, finally appeared in front of everyone at this time, "God...... Idle, you ...... Don't run so fast, I'...... I ......"
"Fatty!"
A cry of rage startled the panting fat man, and when he looked up, the fat man couldn't help but be dazed, and Luna's cold eyes were staring at him.
......
When night fell, the group lit a fire, each took out dry food to roast hot, drank some water, and this was dinner.
After dinner, everyone chose their favorite place to rest in the open space.
These days are filled with an unprecedented fullness in my heart, as if something is beating restlessly in my heart, which makes me both nervous and extremely excited.
This silent forest is like a huge burial place, countless strange things are like a strong wind, Tianxian only feels a little dazzled, the eternal black stone white clouds in the Fire Mist Mountain are completely different from the deep ink green forest, even a blade of grass here, a petal hides countless secrets.
Sitting down quietly, Feiteng's mind slowly calmed down, although he had tried his best not to touch a certain place in his heart, but Tianxian still had a faint sour feeling......
Everyone on the Fire Misty Mountain should be okay......
Taking a deep breath and shaking his head, Tian Xian suppressed these thoughts from the bottom of his heart, and looked at the sky with his eyes brightened again.
The twilight was deep, and the forest was even darker.
Close your eyes, adjust your breathing, and start today's homework - the true understanding of the Seven Treasures Spiritual Heart.
After the battle with the 'Cloud Swallowing Beast', Tian Xian was very happy to find that the Seven Treasure Spirit Heart True Solution had successfully broken through to the peak of the second layer, and the injuries on his body during this time could recover so quickly, which also had a lot to do with this.
However, Tianxian also began to worry, he only had the first two layers of this method, and the barefoot doctor who adopted him in the back method did not give him at all, and according to his careful observation, he seemed to only have two layers of methods......
The way to progress has been blocked, and I vaguely feel that I have reached the stage of breakthrough in the past two days, but I have tried many times, and I can't break through without the following method.
Silently operating the breath in his body, Tian Xian felt that he still couldn't find the way, these cultivation methods that had been tempered by cultivators over countless years were definitely not something that a child could realize if he wanted to.
Tian Xian was a little helpless, and ended today's cultivation early, thinking about his own affairs, while habitually looking at everyone resting in the open space.
It's a very, very strange little team.
They came from different parts of the continent, with different purposes, but generally the same goal, as if they were looking for something in this forest, and every time they asked what they were doing, they always smiled mysteriously and did not explain.
This silent forest is huge and dangerous, and it is said that this is the place where the largest variety and most ferocious monsters and beasts on the continent are gathered.
Adventurers who seek all kinds of wealth here all year round divide the forest into six levels from the outside to the inside, and the further you go inside, the more dangerous it becomes, and it is said that at the heart of the forest there is a powerful monster that no one can defeat.
Although this forest is dangerous, Tian Xian feels more relaxed than ever, because no one here cares if he has stigmata or not, or even whether he is human or not.
After the initial amazement, now when he cultivates the True Interpretation of the Seven Treasures Spiritual Heart, there will be no more strangers, and no one will ask him why his body glows when he cultivates, of course, Tianxian is also clear, but in fact, he doesn't know.
Everyone keeps a good distance and space for others, but it is a wonderful tacit understanding to keep moving forward in this forest.
The snow-white haired, but with a twelve-point spiritual head, carrying a giant sword, laughing every day is Hank, the leader of the adventure group, who has a bold personality and is an elder who can win people's description.
And that Teemo, who had gloomy eyes and a pale face, looked like he was only twenty-three or four-year-old, was actually the deputy leader, and there was actually a deputy leader after the head of this small adventure group, which made Tianxian very incomprehensible.
The relationship between the fat man and the thin man is better, I don't know if people with big differences in body size are really easy to become good friends, these two guys are obviously completely different, but they are always together when they rest, the fat man is born with divine power but is very timid, he carries many necessities in the box on his back, the thin man looks dry and thin, but he is full of fierceness, he is the top soldier of the team, and often walks at the front of the team with Hank.
Fang Liang in a white robe looked a little mysterious, he was the doctor of this team, but Tian Xian was very suspicious that this was just one of his many duties, he was from the Dragon Source Empire, he claimed to be a wayfinder, and now Tian Xian didn't really understand what a wayfinder was, he was often very focused on what he was looking at on the ground or tree trunks or even flowers and leaves, Tian Xian asked him, but he didn't answer what he was doing.
The ** upper body, dark-skinned man is called Abbey, he is the inheritor of the flame stigmata, but what impressed Tianxian was his extreme obsession with his muscles, his daily compulsory homework was to exercise his muscles before and after sleeping, even when he was walking during the day, he also posed from time to time, it seemed that only in this way could he hurry with peace of mind.
Tian Xian thinks this guy is a complete narcissist.
And the guy with the pigtails and three extra-long swords, Tian Xian is now sure that he has nothing to do with the Japanese samurai, but his beliefs are much stranger than those of the Japanese samurai. His name is Mossan, and he is a strong man who pursues the limits of his strength and has been trained everywhere, but his attention seems to be in the wrong direction, and he firmly believes that the higher his hair is tied up, the closer he will be to the thoughts of the gods - this is the origin of his braids......
As for the blue-brown skinned guy who was almost completely **, very different from a human, his name was Gigi, and he was indeed not a human, but the natives of the outer layer of the silent forest, the arboreal people, who were the first guide of the operation, never spoke to anyone else, and occasionally talked to Hank, and he rarely went to the ground, and his two-toed feet walked like flying on the trees.
Luna, the last and only female member, is even more strange, as she discovers that she doesn't seem to do anything but follow the group, and ......
Just as he was thinking, a cool feeling suddenly came from his face, and he turned his head to see that Luna's eyes that glowed faintly in the darkness had appeared in front of him.
"Dew...... Sister Luna!?" Looking at Luna's eyes up close, she felt a little weak for no reason.
Luna sat next to Tian Xian, and Tian Xian had no idea when she had arrived.
"Today's cultivation is complete?" Luna's emerald green eyes seemed to roll with something uncertain.
"Uh...... Also, it's a little bit close. Tian Xian instinctively moved his ass to the side.
"Then stop for a moment!" Seeing that Tian Xian wanted to slip away, Luna reached out and grabbed Tian Xian's neck, "You tell me first, who drank the honey syrup in the flower nest!?"
"Fatty!" Tian Xian had already prepared, and he didn't want to answer.
"Oh............" Luna raised her eyebrows, her eyes narrowed suddenly, and she asked aloud, "Bee syrup is bitter and spicy, how can a fat man drink it!?"
Tianxian was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, "The fat man is lying, it's not bitter at all, I'm ...... Ahh
A series of sparks immediately popped out of Luna's eyes, "Little villain!
"Hey...... Ahaha, Sister Luna, Uncle Hank called me, you see...... Ahh
Not far away, Hank and Fang Liang sat together, watching Luna throw Tianxian to the ground, pulling his face hard, both with a wry smile on his face......
These days, Hank has been a little worried.
Hank felt that the little boy he picked up was a little monster, he was still half-dead when he picked it up more than twenty days ago, but after only ten days or so, he immediately became vigorous, although it was said that he was effectively treated, but the injuries on his body were very serious at that time, and he even had plans to let the fat man carry him on his back......
This recovery speed ...... It's like a tenacious beast.
And......
Looking at Luna, who had dragged her escape, Hank sighed.
Perhaps because there have never been children in this team, or because children tend to dispel people's guards, in a short period of time, this little boy has become one with most of the members, even Luna has been unknowingly affected, and she would never talk nonsense to others for anything in the past.
"Fang, this kid...... He was indeed seriously injured at the beginning, right? He seems to have flown back with a mother vine just now. Hank asked weakly.
Fang Liang's face looked even more helpless than Hank's, "I was about to talk about this too, although it's a good thing that he's recovering quickly, but this kid is too weird." ”
"How weird?"
"Let's not talk about flesh wounds...... a trace of doubt flashed in Fang Liang's eyes, "When he fell from such a high place, but the bones were not broken, I was really surprised when I found this, although the child's bones are very flexible, but ...... It probably wouldn't have come to this point, and the speed with which he recovered from his injuries was amazing, and these days he actually began to fly around the forest grabbing the mother vine, almost like a monkey. ”
"But it's human, right?" said Hank, shrugging his shoulders.
Fang Liang nodded, "I carefully checked when I was treating his injuries, this kid is indeed a human being, but he does not have a holy mark, it's really strange." ”
"After all these days, do you figure out why he shines from time to time?"
Shaking his head dejectedly, Fang Liang smiled bitterly, "No, he doesn't have a stigma, I don't know what he's doing at all, just sitting there, as if he is closing his eyes to recuperate, and then a light will appear on his body, I have carefully observed it many times, but there is no result." ”
Hank nodded, "I seem to see him pluck some flowers and plants and rub them on his wounds. ”
Fang Liang's eyes couldn't help but light up, "I haven't fully understood this yet, but...... The boy seemed to know that the flowers and plants could heal his wounds, and he seemed to make his own medicine for himself, except for me to treat him. ”
"Wound medicine ......" Hank had expected it, but Fang Liang still felt a little strange when he said it, "The flowers and plants of this silent forest can't even be recognized by Luna, how can a ten-year-old child ......"
"I don't know. Fang Liang spread his hands, "Now I only know that he is from the Fire Misty Mountain, I haven't even heard of that place, I don't know if this is just casually said, this kid is very strange, what I know about him now is that his body is as strong as a horned tooth beast, and then ...... This kid is not bad, and he is quite likable. ”
"He wanted stigmata so much. Hank added.
"Hmm...... It's also a reassuring place. Fang Liang looked at Tian Xian, who had been chased by Luna, and said with a smile, "If he was something strange, he would definitely not desire the stigma of a human being." ”
Hank frowned and scratched his head, "Strange boy! I thought I would be able to figure out everything about him in three days, but I didn't expect it to be almost a month in the blink of an eye. ”
Fang Liang lowered his voice and said, "Do you want to be sure, we are about to enter the fourth layer, and there is no room for accidents." ”
"Forget it, since we let him follow us at that time, we have already accepted him, and now we are deliberately testing something, that is not our approach. ”
"You're still so stubborn. ”
"There's nothing wrong with being stubborn!" Hank laughed.
took out the kettle he was carrying and took a sip of water, Fang Liang's face was a little stricter, "That fox demon seems to be still following us." ”
"Still following?" Hank was a little surprised.
"Well, I asked Luna today, and I can't be wrong. Fang Liang looked at the twisted and weird forest around him, "Our journey has been quite smooth, only this fox demon makes me a little concerned, it stands to reason that it should have left in a good way." ”
"Could it be a very powerful fox demon, this thing should stop at the second layer at most. ”
Luna said it was a normal kitsune. ”
"Oh......" Hank nodded and muttered for a while, "If you still follow us tomorrow after entering the fourth layer, let Mo Shan and the thin man deal with it." ”
"I wish a qiē shun lì. Fang Liang looked at the pitch-black woods overhead and muttered to himself......
