Forgive me, I was pulled out to play, but after being a coolie who had been a two-day coolie 5555, ran away with a heavy bag on his shoulder for two days, I was so exhausted
-------- I'm really embarrassed --------
On a red land, Chen Kai and his group slowly walked towards a yellow forest. Since the light in this world has always been red, Chen Kai and his friends looked at the yellow forest in their sight. It was not clear that they were really colored. Of course, Chen Kai and his friends could pick the leaves and put them in the tent to check with the light in the tent, but they were not bored to do this, because there was nothing more important in Chen Kai and his friends than finding water and food in the woods.
However, the idiom that the forest is invisible in any world is correct. For Chen Kai and others, both the woods and the surrounding land are very unfamiliar areas. Even if they have found the information about the fog demon, the information about the plane they are still unknown. For the ** Master, especially the coordinates of any plane of the Space Master are priceless. Because an unknown plane represents a large number of unknown creatures and various precious minerals that have not been developed, for a ** Master, finding an unknown plane can completely get rid of poverty and become rich. Even if it is just selling the coordinates of the plane, these ** Master can become rich and powerful.
As for the ones who purchase such coordinates, it may be a country, a mage association, or of course a god. For gods, they are most interested in those planes with intelligent life, because they can spread faith there. Of course, in an era when there were still many gods, they extremely needed such planes, but now there are less than a hundred gods in the entire Ethia, and the country alone on the continent is enough to maintain their existence. Therefore, the matter of gods paying for a plane has disappeared. At the same time, due to population and national strength, mortal countries rarely spend enough money to buy the coordinates of planes. At this stage, the only ones who can really pay for money to buy are the mage associations.
Of course, Chen Kai and the others have no way to sell the coordinates of this space to the Mage Association, because they don’t even have the same plane in this space, and they hope to meet the senior masters of the Mage Association here, so that they can leave this area with the help of the other party’s space gate. This is just a dream, and no one has any human existence here. For Chen Kai and the others, they must first solve the problem of survival. Survival in this hot area must first solve the problem of food and drinking water. Therefore, even if this forest looks a bit weird and feels a little dangerous, they must enter this woods.
Of course, before entering this forest, they can cut down some trees to solve the problem of lack of wood in their backpacks, so as to save them from baking them after finding food. At that time, Chen Kai and the others will face a situation of eating raw food, which is definitely not what they want to see. Although raw meat can also fill their stomachs, it will also bring various unnecessary magic. At this stage, what Chen Kai and the others hate the most is dehydration caused by diarrhea, which is definitely not what they like to see. Dehydration in the absence of water is definitely a bad thing.
However, when Chen Kai waved his axe and wanted to cut off the first yellow tree, he suddenly looked a little weird because it seemed to have a face. Whether it was the closed eyes, the erect nose, the closed lips and the woody beard below, it made Chen Kai feel like he saw a human face. Therefore, at the moment of cutting down, Chen Kai first tried to poke the other party with the handle of the axe. Fortunately, Chen Kai poked the other party with the handle of the axe, avoiding their fate of being chased by a new monster.
When Chen Kai used a logging axe to hit the bark of the big tree with a human face, it not only made a buckle of wood, but also made a sound of pain. This sound seemed to be two pieces of wood scraping, which was very unpleasant and uncomfortable, but this was indeed the sound of another race that Chen Kai and the others heard in this world.
"Oh, what do you want to do if you are gentle, little guy?" A hoarse voice echoed in Chen Kai's ears, instantly causing the others to stop the woodcutting axe raised high in their hands, and at the same time retreated several meters with a look of alert. Until they completely retreated to the safe area they thought, the group put down the axe in their hands and looked at the tree man with eyes open in front of them.
"Who are you?" This is a question that Chen Kai and the others spoke in unison. The six people were almost showing their weapons toward the awakened tree man, but this idea was left behind under the increasing number of tree man.
"I should be asking you little guy. What you are holding should be a logging axe? Are you planning to cut us Luo Xin'an tree people as wood?" Don't jump. An ancient tree people with a beard of beard is more than one meter long and looked at Chen Kai and the others with a trembling branch. Its words answered Chen Kai and the others' questions. In the eyes of the group, some small handwriting on the tree people's avatars began to appear, marking their identities.
In Chen Kai and his team's vision, these yellow trees, which were originally identified as trees, are now under the name of Luo Xin'an Shu people, and the light on their bodies is also a green and friendly light. Of course, the yellow neutral light on them is shining with Chen Kai and his group. Obviously, he felt a little uncomfortable with Chen Kai and his group holding up the logging axe. For any wood, logging axe is not good.
"Sorry, respected tree people, we are travelers from different time and space. We were sent here by an evil dark mage using teleportation. Therefore, we lack supplies and there is no firewood for making fire. Only after seeing you did you think you are ordinary trees and want to collect some firewood." Chen Kai saluted to the other party slightly, but the expressions of these tree people were very single, even the ones were holding their faces as if someone owed it one hundred and eight million.
"Oh travelers from different time and space? No wonder you came out of the terrible fog demon plain. It has been nearly a thousand years since humans arrived here. Moreover, there are terrible fog demons everywhere on the fog demon plain. No one can live through there and get here from there. You are really amazing." The tone of the tree man was almost not very ups and downs, but Chen Kai and the others could still hear a hint of sigh in his words. Of course, Chen Kai and the others were most interested in its words. The name of the fog demon plain obviously refers to the terrible red wilderness full of fog demons behind them.
"We are just lucky. Can you guide us, respected tree man, to let us poor travelers return to the human world?" Chen Kai looked at the other party's old-fashioned face and asked the questions in his heart. For them, it was not more important that they would be found back to the main continent of the game.
"Ah road? Sorry, we are just guardians leading to the outside world, and we don't go to the world of humanity. Maybe you can follow the trail behind me to a city in the distance. However, it is not humans who dominate that city, but a devil in the flame plane, so going there is a relatively dangerous thing." The tree man looked very old-fashioned, but unexpectedly it was very good, and he felt happy to help Chen Kai and the others. Its body shook slightly, giving up a narrow path, and the deep path leading directly to the depths of the forest looked very dark.
"That city is called the name?" Chen Kai frowned as he looked at the path leading to the depths of the forest. However, he did not think about not taking this path, but he was secretly alert in his heart.
"It's of course its name was its thousand years ago. We have been here for thousands of years, and no travelers have come here, so I don't know very well that the city will turn into." A voice full of wood texture slowly came out of the old tree man's mouth. It shook the branches as if it was about to shake off the dead yellow sand on it.
"Thank you, respected Mr. Chu Ren, but we don't have to repay your advice." Chen Kai bowed to the other party, and at the same time thanked the other party in a very sincere tone, but the question in his heart still made him raise that question. In Chen Kai's opinion, guidance that does not care about rewards will basically not exist, unless this race is a very kind and generous old man, but anyone who is really good and good will only appear without demand.
"If you can, leave some water, let us not like to move, so it is difficult to get enough water from the center of the forest to replenish your water. This will allow us to continue for hundreds of years. Of course, if you can, please help me transport some water from the center of the forest. Just two buckets of water can keep me undrinking for hundreds of years. With the combination of the water I absorbed from the soil, I will probably grow green branches." When the old tree said this, he rarely showed a look of expectation on his face, and his old-fashioned face became vivid at this moment.
When it finished saying this, a new task appeared in Chen Kai and his team's taskbar. The name is very ordinary "water withdrawal". In addition to experience, the reward also has the friendship of Luo Xin'an Shuren. Of course, this can also be regarded as the reputation system of the Luo Xin'an Shuren clan, but Chen Kai and his team cannot get rewards after the reputation system reaches a certain level. However, in those games, the reputation of the camp often means a lot of special things in the end.
So Chen Kai and the others felt that if they could not find the city, they could use these tree people to obtain tasks to improve their level. Therefore, the group accepted this task without hesitation. Of course, in their hearts, they were still a little wary of the tree people race, because Chen Kai and the others could feel the terrible evil power contained in the forest, and it was difficult for them to avoid the control of these evil forces. With a little vigilance, Chen Kai and the others left behind more than a dozen bags of clear water and then carried a few primitive wooden barrels into the forest.
In this forest, they saw many Luo Xin'an tree people, but some of them had died. There was no trace of water on the withered branches. No matter how hard Chen Kai and others hit the body of the tree people, they could only hear some echoes of the withered rotten wood, rather than the stupid response of the tree people. Obviously, the lack of water in these tree people is quite serious, but Chen Kai couldn't understand that he clearly saw that those tree people could move, but these tree people were unwilling to go to the center of the forest to obtain water sources and would rather dry up and wait for death on the periphery of the forest.
"Everyone clicks, there may be problems." Chen Kai's huge body stood in front of the team. The giant sword in his hand has now become a hijab that opens the road. It not only increases the amount of firewood reserves in their backpacks, but also increases the safety of their way forward. The road guided by tree people is very ancient, and many places have been flooded by bushes. Of course, most of these bushes grow very short, and some have withered, becoming lifeless dead branches. This allows Chen Kai and others to distinguish the direction so that they will not get lost, but at the same time they also create a shadow in their hearts, because there is only one possibility for this situation. That is, when these bushes are still growing, they suddenly lose their water source, and at the same time they dry and squeeze out the water in their branches, forcing these branches to stop growing and eventually move towards death.
So Chen Kai's reminder was not wrong, and the others also quietly raised their vigilance in their hearts, guarding against the possible dangers in the forest. Chen Kai and his team walked through the dense dry forest for half an hour, and the group looked terrified at the yellow branches around them, but after gradually approaching the center of the forest, a hint of green appeared on the bushes around them. On this ground covered by red light, this green looks extremely strange, but it is very attractive. Because of this green Chen Kai and the others are just saying to the old tree people. There is definitely water in the center of the forest, otherwise there would be no green branches.
Of course, this appearance of green also made the group's alertness even higher, because water means there are creatures, and if there are creatures, there may be danger. For Chen Kai and others, it is best to be able to get water safely. Even if it cannot be taken, you cannot exchange it with your life because it is not worth it. But when they really saw the water source in the center of the forest, they suddenly felt that the idea that it was not worth it to exchange for life was a bit unrealistic or the pool water emitting blue light had a shocking charm. This charm made Chen Kai and others want to pounce on the water at the first sight and drink the blue pool water with big mouthfuls.
"Gulu" Chen Kai subconsciously swallowed, and the same sound came from his ears. Everyone felt dry mouth when they saw the pool water, as if they were not the pool water, but the spring of life. What surprised Chen Kai the most was that when he used the eyes of the stars to check the pool water, he saw not the white of the ordinary water source, but the golden color similar to the holy water. In other words, in this forest full of evil power, this blue pool water contains extremely abundant and powerful sacred power. This strange feeling made people tremble in their hearts, and it also made people feel very unsightly.
"Boss, are you sure we are going to get water from this lake? Not another place?" Fei Yun tilted his head and looked at the charred lake shore by the lake. He could feel that the forest became like this must have a close relationship with the lake water. Maybe the source is this blue lake, because the shore of the lake is full of charred soil. The most important thing is that there are a few green spots far away from the lake, but the lakeside, which should have been filled with water vapor, did not have a trace of green, and there was only charred lake mud.
"Do you see there are other pools around?" Don't jump. Chen Kai looked down at the black mud under his feet. The black mud under his feet became different in his eyes that blessed the Eye of Stars. The ordinary lake mud was rich in strands of golden holy power. He grabbed a handful of lake mud and burned it with the holy fire. A terrible holy fire instantly ignited from his palm and rushed to a height of one or two meters. The huge spark shocked everyone. They thought Chen Kai had mastered new skills again, but this was not just the reaction of Chen Kai using the holy fire to stimulate the sacred power contained in the lake mud.
"Boss, have you created a new skill?" Fei Yun looked at Chen Kai and rubbed his palms. The black lake mud instantly turned into white gray and drifted away. Within the range of this lake, the light rarely returned to normal, so Chen Kai and his friends' vision was no longer affected by the red light. But outside the range of the lake, everything was still red dandan, as if it was shrouded under a layer of black and red gauze.
"I didn't collect more black lake mud, which might be more useful than holy water." Chen Kai squatted down gently and then pulled open the soil under his feet. His black lake mud only covered the most surface layer of the dirt mountain, with a thickness of only three centimeters, but after weighing it, it was extremely heavy. However, for them, this kind of lake mud is not just mud, but may also represent a more powerful weapon, because the sacred power it contains is too huge.
"Then do we still need to get water?" Zhao Tiezhu held up the thick wooden barrel in his hand. The huge barrel could hold a full 100 kilograms of water. No wonder the old tree man said that two buckets of water could be used for hundreds of years. When it took out the barrel from behind, Chen Kai and the others were so desperate that they could bite their tongues.
"Wait first, we are not in a hurry, and then make sure there is no danger before we can get the water. Now we can afford it." Chen Kai did not choose to get close to the lake, but retreated in the opposite direction. In his feeling, this lake full of sacred power not only did not give him a very safe feeling, but instead made him feel a vague fear in his heart, as if something terrible would happen when approaching the lake.
