"The scenery in this other world is not bad." After reaching the top of the bamboo forest, the two of them checked out the scenery outside.
You can see an entire bamboo forest above, covered with a thin layer of mist, making the bamboo forest look like an exaggerated ink painting.
In addition to the beautiful scenery of the bamboo forest, looking far away from the bamboo forest, you can see some abandoned villages and ruins left outside. Many ruins have clearly visible cracks, and some have even collapsed.
It is reminiscent of the very tragic wars that once took place in this land.
"Look, this is the source of the red light."
"It turns out there's a firebird hiding inside. No wonder it's so hot around here."
"Fortunately, we caught bugs on the road that can control the temperature, otherwise we would have been unbearable in the heat."
The two of them looked inside the bamboo tree and found a huge flame bird sleeping inside. Due to the influence of the flame bird, the giant bamboo tree emitted a fierce red light.
"How do you think we should wake it up? Then drive it away." Zhu Chiyun asked.
"How about using cryo bombs?"
"When it wakes up, it will cause a commotion, or we will..."
Next, Zhu Chiyun and Guang Xiaoyu discussed the countermeasures and began to act according to the plan.
The two set up a trap and everything was ready.
"It's time to start." Zhu Chiyun made an "ok" gesture, and Guang Xiaoyu immediately picked up the frozen hand in his hand and threw it towards the sleeping flame bird.
Boom!! Freezing hand, Lei made a violent explosion sound. Although the explosion force of this level was not enough to destroy the giant bamboo tree, the cryogen scattered inside the bamboo was enough to make the inside of the bamboo very cold.
At this time, the giant bamboo tree shook so hard that the other two people could hardly stand and almost fell down.
"Hurry up!" Zhu Chiyun shouted, and at this time the flame bird woke up.
"Bah!!! Bah!!!!" The flame bird woke up and made a deafening cry towards the tree hole.
Plop, plop, plop! Hoo ho ho!!!
At this time, there were flapping wings in the bamboo tree and a huge sound of wind, getting closer and closer to the two people on the top of the tree.
"It's about to fly up!" Zhu Chiyun shouted.
"I'm ready!"
The culprit that caused the surrounding giant bamboo trees to emit red light finally appeared and flew out of the tree hole just as it was about to fly out.
Guang Xiaoyu pulled the steel rope back, and several steel ropes instantly entangled the flame bird, making it unable to move.
"Hey!!" The strange bird was fixed by the steel rope and struggled hard, but still couldn't break free from the restraints of the steel rope.
Boom!!! At this time, the flame bird opened its huge mouth angrily and sprayed flames in several directions.
"Calm it down quickly!" Zhu Chiyun held the anesthetic needle given to him by Guang Xiaoyu and was about to rush towards the tied Flame Bird.
roar!!!
"Oops!! Guang Xiaoyu!!" The flame bird sprayed out roaring flames at Guang Xiaoyu. Zhu Chiyun reacted immediately and rushed over to push Guang Xiaoyu away.
"Zhu Chiyun!!" The flames rushed towards Zhu Chiyun quickly. Zhu Chiyun, who had no time to avoid the flames, could only subconsciously raise his sword to resist the attack of the flames.
However, Zhu Chiyun had already been surrounded by raging flames. A normal person would be reduced to ashes if surrounded by such ferocious flames.
"Drink ah ah ah ah!!!" Before the flames dissipated, Zhu Chiyun rushed out of the flames, raised the anesthesia needle and inserted it straight into the throat of the flame bird.
"Bah!!!!" After the flame bird let out a piercing cry, it felt like it couldn't exert any strength. It fell paralyzed and gasped weakly in the steel rope wrapped around it.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. It's strange. What it sprays out has no effect on me at all."
"Do you think you are immune to fire?" Guang Xiaoyu looked shocked.
At this time, Zhu Chiyun checked his body and found that such a fierce fire did not cause him any burns, and he felt that the flame was warm.
"Probably not, I don't know what's going on."
"I hope you're okay. If you get burned to death, I really owe you my life."
"Haha, I almost thought I was going to be burned to death."
"Anyway, we successfully captured this flame bird, and finally solved the trouble for the clan leader."
"(Humans can actually absorb my flames, who are you?)" At this time, the flame bird made Zhu Chiyun hear its voice in his mind through telepathy.
"It's true that the flames you just sprayed only made me feel a little hot. What's going on?" Zhu Chiyun asked.
"Is this flame bird talking to you?" Facing Guang Xiaoyu's question, Zhu Chiyun nodded slightly.
"(The human being who can absorb my flames must be you.)" The flame bird said through telepathy.
"What's the meaning?"
"(Many years ago, when he was dying, he entrusted me with the power of fire. He said that if that human being could absorb the fire in turn, that would be the person to whom I would entrust my power.)"
"Who is he?" Zhu Chiyun asked.
"(He was a highly respected immortal, but he was already dying at that time. When he was about to pass away, he entrusted the power of the flame to humans who could absorb the flame.)"
"Okay, why are you staying in this bamboo forest? Do you know that the energy emitted by hiding in it will cause the bamboo forest to turn into a sea of fire?"
"(I was attacked by a group of humans wearing strange costumes that I had never seen before. They tried to seize the fire power they entrusted to me. I escaped with great difficulty and used this place as my temporary hiding place. Now Now that you are here, this power can be handed over to you as agreed.)"
"What did you all say?" Guang Xiaoyu asked from the side.
"First untie the steel rope that binds it. It's fine now."
"Okay." Guang Xiaoyu followed Zhu Chiyun's instructions and used a serrated dagger to cut the steel ropes, freeing the Flame Bird.
"(According to the agreement, I will give you all this power.)"
Then the flame bird transformed the fire on its body into orange-red light particles, and all the light particles were absorbed into Zhu Chiyun's body.
After handing over the power of the flame, the flame bird transformed back into an ordinary big bird and flew towards the sunset.
"Thank you for your hard work." I don't know why, Zhu Chiyun suddenly blurted out this sentence.
At this moment, he seemed to remember something, but he always felt that some pictures he had never experienced appeared in his mind.
"What happened?" Guang Xiaoyu asked anxiously.
"Don't be anxious, I'll tell you slowly."
Zhu Chiyun told Guang Xiaoyu what happened.
"So that's it. Although I don't know who the group that attacked the flame bird is, it's great that the crisis in this bamboo forest has been successfully resolved." Guang Xiaoyu said with a sigh of relief.
"Let's go down. It's time to explain to the panda leader."
After leaving the giant bamboo tree, Zhu Chiyun did feel that the fire power in his body was much stronger than before.
At this time, the red light emitted by the giant bamboo tree also disappeared, and the small animals under the tree screamed in joy because the crisis was over.
