Chapter 296 The new branches at the entrance of the cave continue to grow until...
The branches continued to grow until the entire mouth of the vat was covered with black vine branches. From a distance, it looked like a huge vine in a vat.
The vine branches then stopped growing.
Qingsong Shenzhi said calmly: "Heihu, are you awake?"
"Hehe, nothing can be hidden from Boss Qingsong." A familiar voice came from the roots of the vines in the jar. It was the voice of the black tiger vine.
After Hei Hu Teng finished speaking, he turned to Ye Lu and Ghost Scholar and said, "I'm fine now. Can you take me there now?"
Ye Lu took a look and found that the branches of the black tiger vine were a bit strange. At first glance, the strange power seemed to be somewhat different from the main body. If the main body of the black tiger vine was at the Blood Resentment level, the strange power of the branches would be almost at the Qingyou level. However, in Ye Lu's perception, these two strange plants were both black tiger vines.
The only difference is the size of the strange power.
"......." No wonder the Black Tiger Vine was so confident that it could "branch over", its branching was indeed different.
The black tiger vine has great potential as a top-grade vine. Even though it has just recovered from its serious injury, its potential is enough for it to be very successful.
Ye Lu glanced at the black tiger vine's body, which was emerald green. He pondered for a moment but did not speak out the question in his heart. He planned to ask it after he came back.
"Then we'll leave first." Ye Lu watched the ghost scholar pick up the large jar containing the branches of the black tiger vine. He also looked up and said goodbye to the Green Pine Spirit.
The Green Pine Divine Consciousness came here to watch the Black Tiger Vine branch out to prevent any accidents. Now that the Black Tiger Vine has branched out smoothly, it is naturally ready to go back.
Ye Lu and others watched Qingsong's consciousness return to the top of Chongshan Mountain.
"Let's go." Ye Lu motioned the ghost scholar to follow.
The ghost scholar held the big jar and watched Ye Lu holding the Ah Xi bird and leading the way in front. The black tiger vine was much quieter along the way. The ghost scholar could keenly feel that the black tiger vine was using its spiritual sense to observe everything outside.
Ye Lu stopped first in front, and the ghost scholar also stopped following him. It turned out that they had arrived at the White Mist Forest.
Ye Lu turned around and looked at Black Tiger Teng, and said, "Black Tiger, look, do you still remember this place?"
"Okay, let me take a look."
The Black Tiger Vine's consciousness made a circle outside, and hesitantly said, "I have some impression, but it shouldn't be this location. Do you remember where I was before? Take me there to have a look."
When the ghost scholar heard this, he knew that Bai Wulin was probably not the one. He looked up at Ye Lu.
Ye Lu nodded slightly, and he led the way in front. The ghost scholar followed behind him, and the group of people walked towards the location where they found the black tiger vine.
"Wait... wait a moment." When it was halfway there, the Black Tiger Vine made a sound again. The Black Tiger Vine's spiritual consciousness seemed to have sensed something and suddenly raised its voice. The spiritual consciousness spread outside for a while and then quickly gathered together.
Ye Lu and the other man looked at each other and stopped as instructed.
"What's wrong?"
"I seem to feel a little unlucky." Heihu Teng said hesitantly.
"This is not the entrance to the passage where you are staying." Upon hearing this, Ye Lu said in his heart, "As expected." He looked at the mountains in front of him again. It was still a few kilometers away from finding the black tiger vine, but from his current position he could vaguely feel the entrance to the cave full of mysterious power.
Although he trusted the instincts of the black tiger vine, Ye Lu still gave it a reminder.
"I know." Hei Hu Teng said, but his tone was also a little puzzled. "I really thought it was where I was, but now I really feel the same bad luck as that cave entrance. No, this bad luck is much lighter than that cave entrance."
Heihu Teng spoke his feelings truthfully.
"Lord Chongshan, you said that the Wanzu would not open another passage after transplanting me, right?" The Black Tiger Vine's consciousness looked up and asked Ye Lu on the opposite side. The Black Tiger Vine itself still didn't believe it. It had even stuffed its branches into the passage to monitor the Wanzu. It couldn't figure out how the Wanzu bypassed the surveillance and opened a new hole.
Ye Lu pondered for a moment and felt that Heihu Teng's guess was possible. He said, "If it were me, I would do this." However, Ye Lu did not speak directly but changed his way of speaking.
"That's for sure. Lord Chongshan, you are very smart, and those ten thousand races are even more cunning. If you do this, those ten thousand races will most likely do the same." Heihu Teng decisively agreed with Ye Lu's words. In his impression, none of the ten thousand races are good people. The insects of the ten thousand races will definitely do these insidious and cunning things.
"I think so too." The ghost scholar rarely spoke up, "The Ten Thousand Races originally preserved this site to preserve the flame of their race, which means they must have a safe exit. Do you think your exit is safe?"
This sentence is actually asking the Black Tiger Vine.
Black Tiger Vine's reply was also very decisive: "I will kill every insect that comes and use them all as fertilizer for me."
The ghost scholar's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Look?——"
"This location is quite a distance away from where you are. You also said that the bad luck is a lot less, so that should be it." The ghost scholar concluded. As for the puzzling surveillance of the Black Tiger Vine, a strange plant that is about to be driven crazy by bad luck, the Ten Thousand Races have many ways to avoid its gaze.
After listening to this, Ye Lu also felt that the ghost scholar was right.
"Hei Hu, can you feel a more detailed location?" Ye Lu asked Hei Hu Teng: "Let me see if I can find the entrance to the cave."
The Black Tiger Vine was already very angry after hearing what the Ghost Scholar said. Could it be said that Ye Lu's words were aimed at it with murderous intent? It almost couldn't wait to agree.
It was so anxious that it was afraid that any of the Ten Thousand Races would escape from its vines.
"Let me take a look. Wait, this is a bit unlucky. We should go a little further to the left." The Black Tiger Vine sensed carefully and spoke to Ye Lu and the Ghost Scholar while sensing.
The ghost scholar moved while following Black Tiger Vine's instructions.
Ye Lu stood beside the ghost scholar, keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings in case of a sudden attack from some blind monster. After all, they were in the wilderness and no one knew what monster might happen.
Ye Lu and his group slowly followed the black tiger vine and moved towards the west.
At first Ye Lu didn't feel anything, but gradually, Ye Lu felt something was wrong. The little bird Ah Xi, who had been staying safely in the palm of his hand, seemed to sense a natural enemy. It raised its little head and rubbed Ye Lu's palm with its soft feathers.
"It seems to be this way." Heihu Teng's voice was a little uncertain.
After the ghost scholar stood firm, he continued to wait.
Black Tiger Vine overturned his initial speculation again: "No, go a little further to the side."
The ghost scholar continued to change his defense line according to Black Tiger Vine's words, stood firm, and continued to wait.
"Well, now it is." Black Tiger Vine's voice was full of satisfaction.
The ghost scholar now felt as if he was trapped in a swamp. Every movement was very difficult, and there was a solid aura of bad luck all around him.
"Come out." Ye Lu seemed to have noticed that something was wrong with the ghost scholar. He reached out his hand very calmly. As soon as his hand touched the ghost scholar's arm, he pulled it outwards. The ghost scholar suddenly felt the pressure relieved.
The whole person felt like a little bird being pulled away.
Ye Lu, on the contrary, stood in the position where the ghost scholar was at the beginning.
Ye Lu felt similarly to the Ghost Scholar. Now he knew why the Ghost Scholar had such a weird expression.
It's just that Ye Lu can bear this bit of bad luck. Although the God of Mount Tai is not able to cure these things, he is not afraid of it.
Ye Lu raised his eyelids and stepped down hard.
"Boom!" The sound of soil collapsing and falling.
The soil under Ye Lu's feet, which seemed to be very hard, turned into mud in an instant and sank into the cave like a mudslide. The bad luck blocking the entrance of the cave rushed out like a volcanic eruption, and rushed straight towards Ye Lu who was standing in front of him.
The little bird Ah Xi chirped anxiously and flapped its wings continuously, trying to save someone.
Ye Lu pinched the bird's wings directly to prevent it from moving. The next second, she swiftly dodged the bad luck rushing out from under her feet, somersaulted lightly in the air, and landed next to the ghost scholar. The whole process was without a trace of worldly air, and she looked clean, refreshing, and beautiful.
The Black Tiger Vine's divine consciousness watched the entire process and said in an appreciative tone, "Good skills."
Ye Lu landed on the ground and just happened to hear Black Tiger Vine's praise. He observed the cave entrance from where he was standing and said modestly, "Thank you, thank you."
The ghost scholar hissed in his heart, and the Taoist priest couldn't help pretending again.
Although the ghost scholar knew that his brother Lu was pretending to be something big, he still had to say in his heart, "Beautiful."
Ye Lu said, "Hei Hu, look at this cave entrance now. Does it look familiar to you?"
Ye Lu found a cave entrance but was not in a hurry to go in.
"Let me see." The Black Tiger Vine's attention was drawn to the direction of Ye Lu's words. After a moment, it said in a positive tone: "Yes, the bad luck is the same."
Black Tiger Vine gnashed his teeth and said, "That group of insects from all races really opened a new hole, right under my branch's nose."
"This cave entrance is still lacking at least half of its bad luck. Ghost scholar, can you put me at the entrance first?" Black Tiger Vine turned around and said to the ghost scholar.
The ghost scholar nodded when he heard this, and with a wave of his hand, a big pit appeared not far from the cave entrance. Just as the ghost scholar was carefully preparing to move the black tiger vine out, the black tiger vine decisively rejected it.
"It's okay, just smash it directly. This branch of mine won't live long anyway. Give me some more strange beads so I can absorb more bad luck while I have time." Black Tiger Vine made the request decisively.
The ghost scholar was surprised, but as for planting the strange plant, he must listen to the strange plant itself. He decisively followed the black tiger vine's instructions and did so.
The branches of the black tiger vine were planted in the pit. The soil had just been covered when the strange bead fell to the ground. The vine branches began to grow wildly and continued to spread towards the cave entrance.
Every spreading branch of the vine madly absorbs the bad luck in the cave passage.
"We can go in now. You can leave one person to watch over me." The Black Tiger Vine's divine sense saw that the bad luck in the cave had almost decreased, so he spoke to the other two people.
"Axi, please stay." Ye Lu opened his palm to reveal the bird inside and spoke.
The red-feathered bird tilted its feathers: "Chirp?"
"Anyway, you can't mobilize much strange power now, so you might as well stay outside and watch the black tiger vine." Ye Lu said.
The chirping of the little bird is low.
"You have done a lot," Ye Lu coaxed, "We are not very familiar with Hei Hu, so he must trust you, the mountain master, more."
Ye Lu still didn't know what was going on inside the cave, so he would definitely not bring the little bird in. In comparison, the ghost scholar in his complete form was much safer and could also help carry things.
Hei Hu Teng understood what Ya meant and agreed: "If it is Master Axi, I will promise to be a good boy."
The red-haired bird looked doubtfully at Ye Lu and Heihu Teng.
The ignorant young bird believed what Ye Lu said, saying that he liked the two-legged beast. After seeing Ye Lu's sincere expression, it believed it and nodded seriously.
This indirectly shows that sometimes kindergarten education is very important, at least you won’t be deceived so directly.
The ghost scholar almost laughed out loud after reading all this. Although he didn't understand the plot, he was thinking in his heart that after the playful man regained his adulthood, he must let him read more books.
The corners of Ye Lu's mouth curled up slightly.
"By the way, you can bring one of my branches in." After Ye Lu and the Ghost Scholar had cleaned up the Black Tiger Vine, it first looked at the red-haired bird standing obediently on the vine, and then it felt relieved. Then, it broke a small section of the vine silently.
This small section of vine fell in front of Ye Lu.
Black Tiger Vine said: "I'll take you in to search."
"The only condition is that if I see any of the Ten Thousand Races alive, I have to kill them!"
