Chapter 1399: Testing
This strange sound made everyone shiver involuntarily and their scalps became numb.
However, this weird sound only lasted for a while, and then there was no more movement.
"It seems that the corpse insect will definitely not be able to escape this sea of fire now, and he will definitely die there." Zhou Long said with lingering fear.
Although he showed great bravery just now, only he knew how scared he was in his heart, but he just didn't show it in front of them.
Seeing that the corpse in front of them gradually became completely silent, several people felt completely relieved.
After a period of silence, Li Yi took the lead and said: "Although it's a little late now, this place is so weird, it would be better for us to get out of here earlier. What do you think?"
Qian Tao nodded with deep understanding and said: "Brother Li, this place doesn't look like a kind place. Spending the night here will give people a creepy feeling. We'd better leave here as soon as possible, and this place There are corpse insects, maybe there will be other weird things."
"Yes, Brother Li, let's leave quickly." At this moment, Wei Xia also shook Li Yi's arm and said?
Chen Xuan and others also nodded in agreement.
"Well, since everyone thinks it's feasible, let's leave now." Li glanced at everyone and nodded lightly.
Li Yi still took the lead and walked in front. Wei Xia held Li Yi's arm and followed closely behind Li Yi. She was obviously frightened by the scene just now.
Qian Tao and Zhou Long walked in the middle one after another, Sun Tingting walked in front of Chen Xuan, and Chen Xuan walked in the back.
But the strange thing is that there are fewer and fewer scenes like the one just now, but the patches of white bones are becoming more and more numerous.
After everyone had seen the scene just now, these bones looked less scary than before.
Among the piles of white bones that appear in patches, a few bones with white light will appear from time to time, making people look at them with suspicion.
Fortunately, after everyone walked for about an hour, the white bones around them gradually became less and less. This made everyone's tense hearts suddenly feel happy. Look at this, it won't be long before they can walk out. .
In this way, everyone became more and more excited and finally wanted to leave this weird place.
However, Chen Xuan, who was walking at the end of them, did become a little confused.
Although Li Yi has never been here before, and judging from the time, he really should not have the opportunity to come here, but Li Yi is very familiar with the surrounding environment. Li Yi was already familiar with the treasure of the past mirror, but he shouldn't be so familiar with it.
You must know that knowing a place from some other ways and becoming familiar with a place from going there are completely opposite.
But the familiarity shown by Li Yi was almost the same as the latter one.
Moreover, even the scene in the mirror in the past is already the scene a hundred years ago. And in this Aowu Forest, even if there are no earth-shaking changes, it is impossible for the scene to be exactly the same as it was a hundred years ago. No matter how much, it will always be the same. There will be some more or less changes.
Along the way, Li Yi rarely looked at the map, and even when he looked at the map, he only glanced at it casually without making a careful comparison. Therefore, Chen Xuan felt that Li Yi was a bit suspicious.
However, Qian Tao and the others didn't seem to notice this at all, and they still followed Li Yi excitedly.
"Brother Li, have you been here before?" Chen Xuan suddenly said calmly.
"Of course..." Li Yizheng was subconsciously preparing to answer, but suddenly his expression froze, and he couldn't help but react. Then he gave Chen Xuan a meaningful look and continued: "Of course I have never been here, haven't I been here before? ? The location of the Life Fruit is not that far away from here now. Besides, Brother Chen, you are kidding me too much. If I had been here, it would have been at least a hundred years ago. I would have been here a hundred years ago. How could you have been here if you were not born? Chen Xuan, you really know how to laugh."
Chen Xuan said disapprovingly: "Oh, that's it. Don't blame Brother Li. I just see that Brother Li is very familiar with the surrounding environment. Besides, we have hardly encountered any corpse insects along the way. There is no danger, and there are many cultivators who come into the Aowu Forest, but even so, we didn't meet a single cultivator along the way. This has to be a bit strange, after all, the Aowu Forest only covers an area of 100 square kilometers. , but there are tens of thousands of cultivators here, but we haven’t encountered any of them, which makes me think more.”
Chen Xuan paused and continued: "But no matter what, the probability of this situation happening is really low. Tens of thousands of cultivators are in a forest of only one hundred square kilometers, but they can't even meet one person." Yes, this seems like an incredible thing to me, but to you, Brother Li, it is like a common occurrence, very common, so I can’t help but think, I thought that Brother Li, you had been here before, otherwise If so, no matter what danger we encounter, even if it is not life-threatening, it shouldn’t be so easy.”
Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief without leaving any trace, smiled lightly, and said: "So that's the case. It's normal for Chen Xuan to have this concern. However, it's not that we didn't meet other practitioners. It's just that when we were about to meet, I took you to quickly avoid them. As for why I am familiar with this place, it's because my grandfather showed me the mirror of the past, so I am very familiar with every plant and tree in the Aowu Forest. You also know that the Aowu Deep Forest can only be entered once every hundred years, so the scenery inside, even if there are some changes, but the changes are not big, so I can know this Aowu Forest like the back of my hand."
Hearing Li Yi's words, Chen Xuan smiled lightly with relief and said: "So that's the case, I was overthinking it."
However, although Chen Xuan said this on his face, he still maintained a noncommittal attitude in his heart as before. Even if Li Yi was well prepared and knew the Aowu Forest well, what he showed now was definitely not that simple.
Being well prepared is one thing, but when it comes to actual action, it is another thing. However, it will definitely not be what Li Yi showed at the moment.
Although Li Yi's explanation is very pertinent, and it does sound so at first glance, as long as you think carefully, you can understand the flaws in Li Yi's words.
However, Chen Xuan did not say anything about this. Since Li Yi was unwilling, it was clear that he was deliberately hiding it from everyone, so no matter how much he asked, he could not get any reason.
Although Qian Tao and others seemed to believe Li Yi's words at this moment, Chen Xuan was not tempted by his words, but kept a very calm mind.
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan could not help but look a little surprised, because no matter where this Li Yi came from, although he behaved very suspiciously, he could easily live Qian Tao and others' trust. This showed Li Yi's good attitude no matter how.
Therefore, Chen Xuan was not sure for a moment whether Li Yi's words just now were thought of long ago or just came up with on the spur of the moment. However, no matter which one Li Yi belongs to, it is clear that Li Yi is not to be underestimated. He is very cunning and not an ordinary person.
At this time, Li Yi spoke again: "Don't worry about these dead things. They are just some bones. There is nothing big to talk about and they are not aggressive."
At this point, Li Yi suddenly paused, and then continued: "If we walk out of here, we will be closer to the place where the life fruit is. And it's so late now. We should get out of here early, and then rest up and set off tomorrow. If I'm not wrong, we should be able to find the place where the life fruit is tomorrow."
"Okay, Brother Li is right," Qian Tao and others' eyes lit up when they heard Li Yi say the word life fruit. For a moment, they put down all their worries in their hearts, as if the previous things had not happened.
At this moment, they were a little energetic, quickened their pace, and followed Li Yi closely.
After walking for about an hour again, the bones around Chen Xuan and his group were almost gone, and they had obviously walked out of that strange place.
However, the surrounding environment was still as gloomy as before, but in their eyes, it seemed like a very normal, even beautiful place. Compared with the pieces of bones, the strange corpse, and the inexplicable corpse worms, the current environment was much better than before.
At this moment, everyone's nerves relaxed.
Then, under the leadership of Li Yi, several people continued to walk forward, while looking for a cave to live in.
About an hour later, Li Yi and his group found a cave, where they lived and began to adjust their bodies. After the previous shock, they all felt a little tired?
There was no talk all night. After everyone had repaired, they got up early in the morning and headed towards their destination again.
