Deep in the dense forest, Ding Meng and his party of four walked quietly through the swamp.
The night was still misty, and rain and mist were floating in the sky again. Gu Zi shuttled among various strange-shaped plants.
Even though he and Yiko are ordinary humans, living on Qianfan Planet since childhood has made them extremely familiar with the terrain. They know exactly where they can't walk, what they can't touch, and what they can't eat.
Essendel is not impatient about this. Now she and Dinmon have completely controlled and restrained their auras, and are walking through the contaminated areas of the Devouring World. It is impossible for the starships above to detect their whereabouts.
The four of them walked under a cliff. Gu Zi used a javelin to push aside a few thick purple-blue leaves, pointed at a pile of rocks under the mountain wall and said: "This is right here, Brother Dingmeng!"
Ding Meng nodded: "I have the impression that my uncle mentioned to the village chief that this place is a restricted area!"
Essendel asked curiously: "Restricted area?"
Guzi explained: "Yes, grandpa once said that there are ghosts and gods here, so don't come here if you have nothing to do."
For energy users at the level of Essendel, the so-called ghosts and gods are relatively ignorant terms. After all, this is a backward Thousand Sail Planet. The aborigines have little knowledge and culture and know nothing about spiritual bodies.
, so it is considered to be something like gods and ghosts.
"Is there anything special here?" Isendael asked.
Yiko explained: "There are gods inside. Unless there is a disaster, you are usually not allowed to enter, including monsters. No one is allowed to enter."
Essendel thought to herself that no wonder she didn't see any Devouring Monsters along the way.
Ding Meng had already stepped forward to excavate. This pile of chaos was obviously man-made. Once cleared, a gloomy entrance to the cave was revealed. After entering, he found that it was a natural cave. The cave was not big, but it naturally opened towards the cave.
The underground extends everywhere. I felt it slightly and found nothing unusual.
However, walking down gives people the feeling of returning to the inside of a large energy crystal fortification, constantly twisting and circling, slowly going downwards. Not only is the topography of this cave very complicated, but it also seems to have no end going down. It is simply terrifyingly deep.
But the strange thing is that this bottomless pit has no traces of artificial excavation, and at the same time, the passage and the four walls are very dry.
Of course, one thing is certain, it is indeed safe to hide here, at least the radar above cannot penetrate it.
"How do you know there is such a place?" Essendel was extremely curious.
Ding Meng explained: "In the War of the Predator World a hundred years ago, the Predator army was forced to the Thousand Sails Star by the federal fleet. It was said that there was no way to retreat. A large amount of strategic materials and poisons had no time to move away, so they had to be left behind."
Essendel said: "Buried under here?"
Ding Meng said: "It's been a hundred years, and I don't know if these things are still there, but this terrain is the best cover."
Essendel also nodded. There are countless natural caves on Thousand Sails, and it is impossible for the federal fleet to search them one by one. As long as the pollution is not serious, the army will usually ignore them. This is also the army's consistent method of dealing with the Devouring World.
"Then how long do we have to hide?" Essendel asked again.
"Until it's safe!" Ding Meng sighed, "I don't have anything to do with it, mainly because I'm afraid you guys will be bored!"
Eisendair understood what he meant. Ding Meng didn't care about Xinghong Group's revenge, but he was worried that the Guzi brothers and sisters would be implicated.
However, Furuko and Yiko have been hunting in the dark for many years, and they have also developed the ability of night vision. Even in this black hole where they can't see anything, they can see clearly, so there is no need to use flashlights and other light sources for illumination.
Yizi suddenly raised his head and said: "Brother Ding Meng, we have gone so far in, why haven't we seen the gods yet?"
Gu Zi continued: "It's a good thing not to see you. Grandpa said before that sometimes the gods will help people and sometimes they will harm people. They are erratic and only those who are destined can come into contact with them. Let's go with Big Brother and Sister Ding Meng
, Anyway, there is so much to eat, so you don’t have to worry about going hungry.”
"Oh!" Yizi looked a little disappointed.
The four of them continued descending, and after walking for who knows how long, a large cave appeared in front of them.
This cave is relatively flat. It is like a circular hall with an area of more than 3,000 square meters. There are actually sixteen pillars standing in the center of the hall. The pillars form a circle and form a circular high platform on the ground.
There are steps to go up, and it feels more like an altar.
Essendel hesitated and asked: "Is it something from the Devouring World?"
Ding Meng nodded. The terrain of this place is very similar to the energy pool inside the Void Spirit Ray, but there are obvious differences, because the altar is completely dry. You must know that most things in the Devouring World are venomous fog and rarely dry.
Clean environment.
"Let's rest here!" Ding Meng sat down in the open space of the altar. He was not tired, but the Furuzi brothers and sisters could not move for a long time and had to eat to restore their strength.
The relationship between the two siblings was undoubtedly very good. After the two ate some dried meat and took a bottle of nutrient solution, Furuzi lay directly on the ground and fell asleep, while Yiko put her head on Furuzi's thigh and fell asleep
Go, there seemed to be a faint smile hanging on the corner of her mouth in her sleep.
Looking at Yizi's expression, Essendel showed envy.
Ding Meng said: "Are you envious that they can sleep? We, the energy users, don't have to rest?"
Essendel shook her head and sighed: "Guzi is very good to Yizi. He lets his sister choose the delicious food first and even lets her sleep. It is really enviable to have such a brother."
Ding Meng looked at her: "Don't you have a brother?"
"Yes, there are!" Essendel shook his head and said, "But they are different from Gu Zi. My brothers never care about their relatives, but their own power and interests."
This is a common problem among big families. It shows that although Essendel has an extraordinary status in the colorful family, she is not happy, so she often goes out to experience and explore.
"I'll take a rest too!" Ding Meng was never interested in these topics, so he simply sat down with his back against a pillar and his eyes closed.
This is his unique way of cultivation, and Essendel is obviously good at it. She also crossed her legs and closed her eyes next to Din Meng, entering her own consciousness space.
Since combining with Ding Meng, she has gradually mastered the tempering of divine light technology energy. Absorbing these energy is really not a short time, especially that crazy night, the two combined many times, and the divine light injected by Ding Meng
The energy was very huge. Fortunately, she also practiced high-level smelting techniques. If it had been someone else, she would have exploded and died.
However, just as the two were practicing alone, Furuko and Yiko suddenly woke up in the middle of the clearing, and the two siblings bounced up like arrows.
Ding Meng slowly opened his eyes: "What's wrong?"
Essendel was also alarmed, and she found beads of sweat on the foreheads of the two brothers and sisters.
"Sister, I'm a little scared!" Yizi's expression looked frightened.
"Don't be afraid, what's wrong?" Essendel stood up and stroked her head.
Yizi timidly said: "I just had a nightmare."
Gu Zi wiped the cold sweat off his head: "It's strange, I also had a nightmare just now!"
Ding Meng frowned and said, "What nightmare?"
Gu Zi also looked confused: "I was in the dream just now and realized that we are still here. I can even see us sleeping. Brother Ding Meng, you and your sister are meditating."
Ding Meng said: "Are you two too tired?"
As a result, Yiko suddenly said: "Huh? Furuko, how come your dream is the same as mine?"
Gu Zi was also stunned: "Did you see something?"
Yizi suddenly pointed to an opening on the west cave wall: "I just saw someone there, and they were calling my name. That voice sounded very much like grandpa's."
It was okay if she didn't say anything. When she mentioned it, Gu Zi suddenly showed a shocked expression: "I saw it too, but what I heard seemed to be grandma's voice."
Dinmen and Eisendale looked at each other, and they had already smelled something was wrong. Dreams are supposed to be normal, but how can two people have exactly the same dreams?
Ding Meng secretly spread his telepathy around the field, and the force field immediately spread to the passages in all directions. Unfortunately, there was no abnormality in his telepathy vision at all.
If someone is really causing trouble, then this person is so terrifying that he can't even detect it with telekinesis. What kind of magical skill is this?
"What else did you see?" Essendel asked again.
Yizi showed a panicked look: "I walked down that way, and suddenly I saw a ghost face, and I was frightened and woke up."
Ding Meng looked at Gu Zi: "Are you like this too?"
Gu Zi nodded in horror: "It's exactly the same. I've never seen such a terrifying face, so I woke up too. When I woke up, I realized that it was all a dream."
I'm afraid you are not dreaming! This sentence reached Ding Meng's mouth and was swallowed back. He was afraid of scaring the brothers and sisters. Although Gu Ziyizi had seen many ugly predatory monsters in the polluted area, , but they are ordinary human beings after all, and their psychological endurance is limited, but it can scare them, which is enough to show how scary the ghost faces are.
Ding Meng and Essendel couldn't help exchanging glances, which meant that there must be something weird about this matter. They were awake just now, and there was no abnormality in their perception, but the Guzi brother and sister had the same dream.
To put it simply, dreams are nerve impulse signals spontaneously generated by the brain, which are also a type of brain waves. The brother and sister had the same dream, that is, the brain waves were artificially guided or manipulated. Ding Meng and Aisen Del is a very high-level source of energy, with a stable brain origin and a stronger mind than ordinary people, so it is normal for her not to be able to sense it.
Eisendale said: "We might as well take a rest."
Ding Meng understood what she meant, that is, we should also stop operating the source energy, recycle our mind power, and enter the dreamland to see if we can have the same dream.
"Okay!" Ding Meng replied.
"But I need to lend you your leg!" Essendel said.
Ding Meng was stunned: "What?"
Essendel glanced at him: "I also want to try the feeling of sleeping with my pillow on my thigh. I think it will be much more comfortable than sleeping directly on this stone slab."
