Seeing that four or five people had passed by, and nearly half of them were injured or killed, and the remaining survivors were all from prominent families, Brother Biao made a quick decision, took out the things in his backpack and started to set up a tent on the spot.
"What are you doing?" This time, even Ye Lan couldn't understand.
Brother Biao raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Let's stay here overnight. Climbing today has already drained too much of my energy. There's no way I can take the cable car. Normally, these experts wouldn't bother waiting for a whole day to fall behind, but I'm different. As a climber, the last thing I lack is patience."
As he spoke, he looked up and winked at the two of them, indicating that his decision was wise and powerful.
Wu Heng: “…”
I don't quite understand, but I respect it.
When the other people on the platform saw what was happening here, they all looked mocking, and some even laughed out loud.
"You loser who can't even climb a mountain should stop seeking death. You have no place on the path to immortality. If everyone can make it, then everyone can become an immortal."
However, Brother Biao turned a deaf ear to what he said and tried to appease the grim-faced Wu Heng, "Be patient for a while and keep the situation calm. Don't forget that our goal is to get to the other side, not to resort to violence. The entire summer vacation is open, and we don't have to go today."
Wu Heng was persuaded by him and did not teach those rude people a lesson, but he still felt uncomfortable, so he turned around and went to find Ye Lan.
"Is it impossible to take him with you? Just like you helped me save people down the mountain."
"Hmm?" At that time, Ye Lan was standing in front of the Xuanchuan River, looking up at the sky above the majestic water vapor, as if staring at something. Upon hearing this, he slowly turned his head and said with a cold and indifferent expression, "Do you want to take him there?"
"Yes." The boy nodded without hesitation, but at the end he felt a little embarrassed and softened his tone a bit, "Is it okay?"
He knew that he had no ability and had to ask for help.
Ye Lan was also tolerant enough towards him, almost granting him all his requests, but these were not what he should have.
There is no connection between them except the newly established friendship between fellow disciples.
However, Ye Lan did not hesitate at all. He responded softly and gave a positive answer, "Of course."
No one has more power to decide this choice than the teenager.
Wu Heng was visibly delighted when he heard this. He ran back and grabbed Brother Biao's hand, showing his white teeth and said with a smile, "No need to wait until tomorrow, let's go there now."
In fact, he was very anxious to see his family and didn't want to wait until tomorrow, but he was worried about Brother Biao being alone.
Now he had the best of both worlds, and he was happier than anyone else.
"What do you mean now? I really don't have the strength anymore." Brother Biao looked confused, thinking that the boy was just acting as he pleased. He said with a puzzled look, "How are we going to get through?"
"Ye Lan, she has a way." Wu Heng answered confidently.
"Ah?" Brother Biao opened his mouth, becoming more and more confused, wondering if the young man had been tricked by his girlfriend into giving him some bad ideas. At this moment, he suddenly heard a strange note in his ears.
The notes sounded like the gurgling of a spring or the gentle breeze on your face. Although the tone was not passionate, it penetrated the rumbling sound of the rolling water curtain and reached the sky.
Everyone on the platform stopped what they were doing unconsciously, and looked towards the source of the sound, where they saw a clear and lonely figure standing in front of a hanging river.
The girl's white clothes were blown by the wind, the corners of her clothes fluttered, her long black hair floated slowly, revealing her exquisite and beautiful profile. A hastily polished wooden flute at her lips was not very exquisite, but it overflowed with a touching melody.
"What kind of song is this? I've never heard it before. It sounds pretty good." Someone was trying to find out the origin of the song and wanted to download it as a ringtone on their phone.
Unfortunately, before we could find out the result, something strange happened in the sky.
"Look! There seems to be something over there!" Someone exclaimed, pointing at the misty sky above Xuanchuan.
Everyone looked up and saw a large amount of water vapor in the sky, as if it was being stirred by a huge hand. Even the sunlight became dim, and then a huge black shadow rushed out from the water vapor.
"Ah! What is that?!"
The moment they saw the true face of the black shadow, everyone on the platform was scared to death.
It was a big bird, several times larger than an airplane, and looked like a fish. Due to its large size, the fins on both sides blocked out the sun like wings.
The only beam of light from Feitian Ferry was immediately blocked by it, and this strange bird-like monster swooped down and attacked everyone.
There were screams and cries all the time. In the face of the extremely strange natural forces, human power seemed too insignificant, and everyone almost subconsciously ran away to escape.
Only the girl in front of the river stood still, and the sound of the recorder flute continued to flow faintly, making the picture look even more eerie and bizarre.
boom.
The wind carrying huge amounts of water vapor blew the people who had escaped to the edge into several more turns as the big bird fell. When they got up covered in dust and wanted to continue running, they found that the big bird was motionless and seemed to have no intention of attacking humans.
Brother Biao was standing not far away, protected by Wu Heng. When he heard the flute stop, he subconsciously looked over, worried that the girl had gotten into trouble. But when he looked up, he saw the girl strolling up to the big bird. She raised her hand and touched its strange round head, commenting calmly, "It's a beautiful place with such beautiful scenery that can raise a good thing like you."
The big bird seemed to understand her compliment. It moved its head slightly and rubbed her palm as if it was acting coquettishly.
Brother Biao was stunned, his jaw dropped. "What the hell is going on?"
Wu Heng finally reacted at this moment, thinking that it was just a small incident at the foot of the mountain. He then grabbed Brother Biao by the back of his collar and said, "Let's go up first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he just pointed his toes and jumped onto the bird's back with a few people.
Ye Lan flew up, faster than them. After standing on the broad and strong back of the big bird, he gently sounded the flute a few times. The big bird then slowly took off into the air as if receiving instructions, carrying them into the sky.
The others hiding in the woods looked dazed at this scene, and couldn't help but break out in cold sweats when they thought of the sarcasm they had directed at the girl along the way.
Fortunately, the other party didn't care, otherwise, with the strength of this kind of monster summoned casually, no matter how many of them there were, they wouldn't be enough to kill...
Let me say this on both sides.
At this moment, Brother Biao on the bird's back had fallen down with his legs so weak, but his hands were still tightly holding Wu Heng's thighs and he was almost crying for his parents.
Wu Heng tried to appease her a few times but to no avail, so he gave up and turned to ask the girl in front of him, "What is this?"
He had never seen it in the fairy mountain.
"Did the old man ever teach you to read?" Ye Lan stood with his hands behind his back, watching the giant bird break through the misty sky and reach the sunlit sky. Looking down at the lush green scenery, he spoke slowly, "Zhuangzi's 'Xiao Yao You' says: 'In the North Sea there is a fish named Kun. It transforms into a bird named Peng. Its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky, and its back spans thousands of miles.'"
"Although the Great Dao of Ascension gradually disappeared, and the enormous creature described by Zhuangzi is no longer to be found in the world, this is indeed a mutated Kun."
It is also the only Kun left in the world.
