The speed of the Sky Monkey is very fast. In the last moments of its life, this kind of monster will burst out the potential of its whole body and reach an incredible speed in a short period of time.
Zhang Cundao was riding on the Sky Monkey. He could clearly feel that the Monkey beneath him was gradually getting hotter, and an extremely high temperature erupted from his body. This kind of temperature increased his speed several times.
Behind them, several Golden Crows were constantly chasing, but no matter how they flew, they could not catch up with the Sky Monkey. When they usually let the Sky Monkey go, they just thought they were having fun, so now they were chasing this monkey.
I just don’t think it’s so fun anymore.
But on the monkey's back, why did it look like a human being and not their little Thirteen? But at this time, they didn't think too much, and the business was to catch the thing first.
As time went by, the Sky Monkey flew higher, farther, and faster, and several Golden Crows were already far behind him.
But at this time, as the monkey's temperature rises, the wax wings on the monkey's body gradually begin to melt and deform. Things made of wax cannot withstand high temperatures!
Zhang Cundao saw this scene and was ready. The next moment, he jumped suddenly, left the monkey's back, and fell downwards.
Jinwu Mountain is a single peak, the only one within a hundred miles, and at the foot of the mountain is an endless forest sea. Zhang Cundao fell towards the forest sea, and the monkey completed the only and last task in his life.
One flight.
The scorching heat melted his wings, and the melted wax wings were ignited by the high temperature. They instantly smoked and caught fire, and then burned blazingly on his body.
Others say that the Sky Monkey ignited itself by flying too high and too close to the sun. In fact, this is just a romantic statement. The real reason is that the high temperature caused by high-speed flight then ignited it.
Waxy wings.
The monkey in the air let out a miserable scream. His waxy body burned like a candle and eventually turned into a ball of wax ash and fell from the sky. At the climax of his life, he ushered in the end of his life.
.
His sacrifice was meaningful. He lured away the two golden crows and let Zhang Cundao fall into the forest.
The forest sea under Jinwu Mountain is full of tall trees over ten feet tall. The crowns of these trees are extremely high, and they are all vying to absorb the sunlight that never sets here.
But under the tree canopy that blocks out the sun, there is a dark and quiet area. Under the canopy, there is the earth that does not receive sunlight all year round. In such an environment, various shade-loving plants grow, and rotten branches and leaves
The retting gave off a putrid smell. Under the canopy, it was damp, full of fungus and decay, and above the canopy it was a completely different world.
Zhang Cundao fell into the forest. He did not dare to move on the tree crown at all, so he could only fall under the tree crown and fell into this dark and corrupt world.
There is miasma everywhere here, all kinds of poisonous insects are rampant, and all kinds of fungi grow all over the tree trunks and slush. It is even difficult to distinguish the direction.
However, Zhang Cundao had a high level of cultivation, so he was not afraid of such a harsh environment. In order to hide himself, he tried his best to restrain his aura and did not dare to use too much strength. Then he found a direction and began to walk slowly.
It is difficult to walk on dead branches and leaves. The rotten leaves are piled up very thickly, and one foot is deep and the other is shallow when stepping on them. Zhang Cundao dare not fly, because flying will cause power fluctuations, which will be noticed by the Golden Crows.
This is still the sphere of influence of the Golden Crow Mountain. The Golden Crow and the Fire Sparrows will explore here.
Along the way, Zhang Cundao stepped on eighteen strange-shaped frogs, more than forty colorful poisonous insects, and was bitten by ten lurking poisonous snakes. However, even if he did not use power, his body was not harmed by such things.
of.
The poisonous frogs were scared away by him, and the poisonous insects could not do anything to him. Even the poisonous snakes that bit him broke their fangs and walked away angrily. The only ones that stubbornly opposed him were the ubiquitous fungi.
I don’t know how long he walked, but mushrooms of various colors grew on his body... These fungi can grow in any environment. Zhang Cundao continued to move forward while pulling out the mushrooms.
Suddenly, his eyes froze because he saw a trap...
This is a very obvious trap, a simple trigger device, a large net woven with vines. If something with no eyes touches this device, the large net on the ground will bounce up, trapping the prey.
in a big net and hung in the air.
‘This kind of trap must have been set by intelligent creatures. I don’t know if it is the work of demons or humans.’ Zhang Cundao took a look and thought in his heart.
Zhang Cundao is more inclined to believe that this is done by humans, because using traps is a specialty of humans. Some monsters will also set traps, but monsters are more willing to trust their own bodies.
Zhang Cundao detoured around this trap for a while, and then he saw more traps. After looking at them for a while, he had an idea.
‘There are so many traps, they don’t look like they are used for hunting, but they look like they are used for defense.’
If it is a trap for hunting, it usually has more flowers and the density is not too dense. This can increase the chance of catching prey. If it is a trap for defense, then naturally the more the better.
Just as Zhang Cundao was thinking about it, suddenly a spear shot towards him from the dark forest. Zhang Cundao's heart moved and he turned his body slightly, causing the spear to miss. But the next moment, there were more than a dozen others.
Wooden spears were shot at him from all directions.
Zhang Cundao quickly picked up the spear just now, and then waved his hand to make a wave of stick flowers, and dropped the flying spears one by one. Although he did not dare to use strength, he still knew some martial arts. This kind of simple use
Martial arts with physical strength will not attract the attention of the Golden Crow.
Suddenly, a voice came from the forest: "Stop, that seems to be a person!"
Then, there was the sound of a fire sickle scraping in the forest, and then a burst of fire lit up. A dozen "savages" came out of the darkness holding torches.
Zhang Cundao took a look and saw that although the people who came were half-clothed and dressed very wildly, if he looked carefully, he could see that these were human beings. And they were all ordinary human beings.
Under the light of the fire, Zhang Cundao looked at these people. Their skin had a strange paleness, which was the sequelae of not seeing the sun for many years. And most of them had skin diseases, which were fungal infections. They
Their hair and beards have been carefully taken care of and cut extremely short. In this environment, long hair and long beards will make it easier for bugs to hide. Short hair and beards, or even bald heads without beards, are the best.
s Choice.
Zhang Cundao also put down the spear in his hand, indicating that he had no ill intentions, and then asked: "Who are you?"
The savages looked at each other, and then one of the older ones replied: "We are forest people. Who are you? Why have we never seen you before?"
After hearing what they said, Zhang Cundao said: "I am a lost passerby and I don't want to cause trouble."
After listening to Zhang Cundao's words, these savages gathered together and started talking quietly.
"This man is really suspicious. He doesn't look like a man from the forest, but more like someone from outside."
"Yes, there are no people in the forest like him. His skin is very clean and not contaminated with germs."
"He is also very strong and tall, which is not something that people in the forest can eat."
Everyone looked at each other and then continued: "He seems to be very powerful. Let's not provoke him. Let him leave here."
Listening to everyone's discussion, the leader-like man was silent for a moment, and then said: "If you let him leave, can he leave this forest? I think we should get in touch with him."
"But what if he is a spy sent by the Golden Crow..." someone whispered.
"The arrogant Golden Crow will not send out human spies. Besides, the Golden Crow doesn't like us at all. They just let us fend for ourselves in the forest. They want to destroy us, so why send any human spies." The leader said calmly.
said.
When the others heard this, they also fell silent. Yes, the Golden Crow looked down upon ordinary people like them. If the Golden Crow wanted to eat, it would only eat practitioners.
The leader looked at everyone, then turned to Zhang Cundao and said, "I think you are trapped here. If you want to help, you can go in this direction. We have a camp over there.
"
After he finished speaking, he threw over a torch and a fire sickle and said, "This is for your lighting. The forest is dark and poisonous insects breed. It is difficult to move without fire." After doing this, he signaled to his companions,
Everyone looked at Zhang Cundao silently, turned around and left.
Watching these people go away, Zhang Cundao smiled and whispered: "You're quite careful."
Even if he didn't use his power, he could clearly hear what these people just said. It seems that these people are ordinary people who fell into the forest for some reason. It's just that these ordinary people are not attractive to Jinwu at all, and ordinary people are not attractive to Jinwu at all.
To put it simply, they are just ants, just like the poisonous insects in the forest.
Zhang Cundao thought for a moment and estimated that these people were trapped here for some reason. He shook his head and didn't care about these people. He just turned around and left.
Zhang Cundao walked in the forest for who knows how long. The longer he walked, the hotter he felt. Finally, when he left the forest, he found a huge river of lava blocking in front of him.
This is a river of lava about a hundred feet wide. Just standing by the river, there is a strong hot air rolling towards Zhang Cundao. Zhang Cundao looked around and saw that the river had no end to the left and no end to the right. It seemed to cover the entire forest sea.
Surrounded.
Seeing this river, Zhang Cundao also understood why those people couldn't leave Lin Hai. Because they had no means to cross this lava river!
If it is an ordinary river, then logging and building boats can cross it. But this is a lava river, and logging and building boats can add fuel to the river. Boats cannot cross, nor can people, and these people cannot fly across. Naturally, they
I am trapped in this forest.
Zhang Cundao scratched his head. He wanted to cross the river and needed to think of a way. The best way was to fly over directly. But to fly over, you would have to use your strength, which would most likely be discovered by the Golden Crows.
If he doesn't use magic power, it's not impossible to cross the river physically. He only needs to practice for a year or two, and he should have the strength to cross the river physically. He is not a monk who specializes in physical training, and it is still a bit difficult to cross the lava river physically. But according to his current situation
At this level, it is not impossible for him to cultivate another physical art.
But he didn't need to go to such trouble. He was a modern man and had modern methods. But he turned his head and looked at Lin Hai, and finally walked towards Lin Hai.
After walking for who knows how long, he finally found the camp of the man in the forest.
This is a relatively sparse forest land, and the tree crown above is not that dense. The sparse sunlight barely leaks through the tree crown, giving the place a slightly sunny atmosphere.
When Zhang Cundao appeared here, the people in the forest immediately spotted him. The young, old, women and children hid as soon as they saw him, while the men picked up their weapons and surrounded him.
In the end, the man who looked like the leader recognized him. The leader waved slightly, signaling everyone to put down their weapons, and then said to him: "What about outsiders, do you find that you can't leave here? If you want to join us, it's not impossible.
…”
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Cundao interrupted them rudely.
"I have a way to cross the lava river. I just came to ask you if you want to go out together."
His words stunned everyone, and then the leader said suspiciously: "What can you do? What can you do?"
Zhang Cundao said calmly: "In my hometown, a man named Kong Ming invented a flying lantern called the 'Kongming Lantern'. This lantern can fly as long as there is heat. I think we can use this principle to leave
here."
The people present were stunned again. Seeing Zhang Cundao speaking so firmly, they also had some thoughts in their hearts.
Zhang Cundao glanced at them, took something out of his arms, and then took out a few thin wooden branches, then took off his clothes, and made some sticky tree sap to smear the clothes all over to prevent the clothes from breathing.
Then he made a small Kongming Lantern, took apart the torch, used the tinder inside as fuel, and then lit it with a fire sickle. After a while, the simple Kongming Lantern swayed and floated away.
stand up.
When everyone saw this, someone immediately shouted: "This... this is not a magic! It can really fly!"
Zhang Cundao said calmly: "As long as we make a big enough Kongming Lantern, we can fly across the lava river and leave here. Moreover, this thing has no mana fluctuations and will not attract the attention of the Golden Crows."
He looked at the people in the forest around him, and finally asked: "What are you willing to follow me? Leave here together."
These people in the forest looked at each other, and the leader immediately said: "Of course! Of course we are willing to follow you. It is our dream to leave here. If you have any mission, we will die without hesitation!"
These forest men spoke sonorously and forcefully, making Zhang Cundao nod with satisfaction, and then he said: "Don't worry, I will take you out of here."
