Chapter 440 Entering the Great Wilderness for the First Time, A Relic of History
At the end of Pingwu, there are towering green mountains.
The old wall clings to the rolling mountains.
Ancient demon pass.
Witnessing the thousands of years of grudges and grudges between the human race and the demon race, the moss is cold and the vines are dry, and the blood of the two races has dried up.
The tower of Yaoguan Pass is looming in the clouds and mist, and the sharp claw marks on the broken rock ridge have been eroded by time and have become blurry.
In late autumn, the mountains are covered with high fog and thick fog, and strange birds circle the sky, chirping in the sky.
The clatter of horse hooves crosses the natural arched stone bridge above the moat.
The boy walked through the mountains and jungles and stopped at the other end of the bridge.
Looking back.
A patch of green hills is waving.
The young man sighed quietly.
There seemed to be a moment of melancholy and nostalgia.
Then he gently waved the reins and rode the horse into the strange world of the mist-lost towers and Yue Mi Jin Ferry.
——Great wilderness.
A very old name.
A world full of unknowns.
Even in the annotations of the past dynasties, the word "Great Wilderness" still retains its unique mystery. This is the case for the Sword Dynasty and the same for the Holy Dynasty.
Even deep in the bloodline of the demon clan, what is inherited is the awe and fear of the wilderness.
Monsters are not completely beasts.
And the beasts roam the wilderness.
Ferocious beast, wild beast.
They are all the masters of this mysterious world.
When the demons are rampant, the demons can only flee and survive in the wilderness.
Gu Yusheng stopped under the Yaoguan Tower, turned over and got off his horse, and looked up at the three-foot-high city gate. The crossbows and arrows on it were still pointing diagonally at the wilderness.
Many faded runes can still be vaguely seen on the city wall, which are used to drive crossbows and strengthen arrows, as well as ancient formation chariots, puppets, armors, etc.
Although most of them are dilapidated, we can see from them that the human race once was glorious and guarded its territory.
Gu Yusheng walked a long way through the ancient demon pass.
He discovered that the documents recorded in many dynasty and state annals were not entirely historical truth. At least, the existence of this demon pass predates the thousand-year grievances between the human race and the demon race.
The arrows, the weathered animal skins on the spears, the ferocious beasts, and the demon bones that fell on the walls of Yaoguan all revealed the truth of history: at a certain period, humans and demons had joined forces to resist the ferocious beasts of the wilderness.
Working together to survive seemed to be the main theme of that era.
What shocked Gu Yusheng was that the remains of the demon gate, the eroded weapons, and the lost treasures all showed that the past human and demon cultivators had very strong cultivation.
It should have been a prosperous era.
The white horse followed behind Gu Yusheng, snoring constantly. It seemed that it didn't like the smell of Yaoguan.
"Let's go."
Gu Yusheng also felt an inexplicable sense of oppression while walking on the Demon Pass.
When a man was in Pingwu, he clearly sensed the shadows of birds and animals in the wild world.
Yaoguan City Wall is really too quiet.
In addition, as dusk approaches, fog is rising, the setting sun cannot shine through the clouds and forests, and the sky is getting dark. The Yang energy in people's bodies will gradually decline throughout the day. Even practitioners will subconsciously reject darkness.
Ah, Ah.
The hoarse jackdaw echoes in the misty forest.
Occasionally it flaps its wings and makes a clicking sound.
As Gu Yusheng was riding on horseback, he always felt a creepy feeling, as if something was staring at him.
"Aquarius."
Gu Yusheng shouted softly.
The treasure bottle in the book box did not respond.
Gu Yusheng entered the bookcase with his spiritual consciousness and found that Baoping was curled up and sleeping in a small quilt, his brows furrowed. Next to her, there was a thick stack of talismans, several bottles of elixirs, and a piece of armor.
There was even a bag of gold and silver.
Gu Yusheng was stunned for a moment, took out the talisman, weighed the money bag again, and smiled.
These were gifts from Mo Pinglan. The elixirs and talismans were all used for self-defense. The armor was actually made of dragon scales and tendons, and the runes engraved on it were also extremely complex.
Gu Yusheng put the money bag away, feeling inexplicably at peace in his heart. Although he was not short of money, Mo Lean was still afraid that he would be short of money when traveling around the world.
A bag of money and a pair of armor have the same weight in Gu Yusheng's heart.
Taking out the armor from the book box, Gu Yusheng looked at it carefully, and was surprised again. After thinking for a moment, he wrote a rune on the armor with a drop of blood. The armor became bright and turned into a thin shirt and light clothes.
The gown matches.
The armor is made of dragon scales and dragon blood, and its defensive strength is self-evident.
The aura it emits can make weak monsters and ferocious beasts instinctively fear and run away.
Wearing armor, poisonous snakes and beetles under the leaves, animals in the forest, and birds in the sky are all escaping quickly, especially the strange and vicious insects in the soil under their feet, and the swarms of insects are scurrying like ants into the depths of the ground.
.
"Huh?"
Gu Yusheng stroked the armor with his hand, his eyes full of surprise, because from inside the armor, he also felt another obscure aura sealed in the runes - the yellow piece that Mo Pianlan would get from the ruins of the Sword Dynasty.
The skin of the great immortal was also added to the armor.
In addition to automatically defending and avoiding danger, armor can also hide one's own aura.
After all, the Wong Tai Sin clan is as good at disguise as the Fox clan.
Such a magical armor shows how much thought Mo Leanlan put into it.
Gu Yusheng couldn't help but whisper: "Brother Mo, you are usually busy, love money as much as life, and are as timid as a ghost. Are these all your disguises? I can see you being magnanimous and forthright throughout your life, which is considered a blessing in your life."
Well, keep this in mind."
With the armor on, the uneasiness in my heart gradually dissipated.
The road ahead is unknown, but Gu Yusheng is not hesitant.
It finally got dark.
Gu Yusheng did not blindly ride forward on his horse, but stopped at a place where low-level animals lived. He patted the horse's back and said, "Follow me on this journey. The road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers. Wait for the weather."
When the high ground is broad, trust the reins again."
The white horse snorted, and his body gradually turned into stone, turning into a stone statue.
Gu Yusheng's mind moved and he put the white horse into the gourd world.
Gu Yusheng jumped up and used his fingers as swords to carve out a temporary cave in a thousand-year-old tree as a shelter.
Inside the cave.
Gu Yusheng sat cross-legged and fell into meditation, calmly regaining consciousness. After a while, Gu Yusheng felt the rich wood spirit energy from the tree. Gu Yusheng's heart moved, and he understood the mystery of the attributes of wood from the secret scroll of heavenly runes.
In the fragmentary scroll of Heavenly Dao Runes, the wood runes are not complete, there are only a few runes, but for the rest of my life, I can understand every talisman and unknowingly, my body merges with the ancient tree.
In the late autumn, when all things are withered, the old trees are whistling and the leaves are rustling.
The green wood spirit breath circled around Gu Yusheng's body, and naturally entered the book box in the sword box. The frowning vase that was originally frowning gradually relaxed, and he fell asleep soundly.
I do not know how long it has been.
Aquarius suddenly poked its little head out of the bookcase.
"Sir, where are we?"
"Inside the tree."
Gu Yusheng opened his eyes, but found that the world in front of him was a bit strange. He looked at the familiar and unfamiliar world from an unprecedented perspective.
Have I turned into a tree?
Gu Yusheng was a little stunned, and the tree world in his mind receded.
Only then did Gu Yusheng realize that the tree hole he had dug had grown and closed, and he was wrapped in the tree.
Gu Yusheng wanted to activate the sword energy, but a strange thought flashed through his mind. He visualized the wood runes, and his body walked out of the tree little by little. When he looked back, he saw that the cave dug in the tree had already been
