Chapter 281: Get Rid of the Patrolling Feathered Monster
…………
On the hanging curtain, leaves with special arc shapes grow very densely, perfectly covering all the areas under the tree. The wind blows on it, which can only make the leaf curtains swing gently. It's impossible to break them up and cripple them!
"What kind of tree is this? It looks completely different from other trees!" Zhao Manyan said as he looked at the tree.
"This is a curtain tree." Zhang Xiaohou said.
"What is the curtain tree?" Mo Fan asked with some confusion.
"It is a large plant called the Guardian of Qinling Mountains. They are distributed irregularly in the mountains of Qinling Mountains. The branches and leaves of this tree are quite peculiar. The branches will droop down after growing to a certain height like willow trees, and the leaves will climb and entwine after multiple branches droop down, forming layer upon layer of leaf screen curtains under the tree. The strong wind erosion of the Su wind will not have much effect on the plants. As long as we hide under the curtain branches of the curtain tree, we will not be disturbed by the Su wind." Lingling said.
"That's right!" Zhang Xiaohou nodded and said, "It's already past four o'clock, and it won't be long until night. At night, the wind will be stronger, and the frequency of patrolling feather monsters will increase, and there will be more of them. Although we have Brother Xi's magic protection, it's better to find a curtain tree, so that everyone can get enough rest at night."
There were two curtain tents in total, which were formed by the trunks of two curtain trees. Considering that everyone had to rest at night, men and women were separated and lay down under the curtain tents to rest.
In fact, this group of people have very high cultivation levels. It is impossible for them to be so exhausted in just one day when walking in the land of demons. It is really that Su Feng is too weird. Even with Zhao Tingxi's magic protection, they can't help but be more afraid of Qin Ling.
"Everyone, take a good rest. You've been traveling all day. You need to adjust your condition so that you can travel better tomorrow." Zhang Xiaohou said.
“This place is pretty good, like a high-end green tent.” Mo Fan looked around.
The area under the curtain tree is very clean. As sunlight and wind have difficulty entering here, a patch of soft light red moss grows under the curtain tree. The moss is as comfortable as a mat. You can lie on it without getting dirty. If it is summer, with a glass of iced cold drink, half a big watermelon, and a fully charged mobile phone with full signal, you can definitely relax all day long...
“Woooooo ...
The wind was still blowing freely outside, but its power had obviously increased in the second half of the night. The people hiding under the curtains were quite comfortable. No matter how hard they tried, the disgusting wind could not harm them at all.
Everyone got a very good rest that night.
The next morning, the wind weakened a lot, just as Zhang Xiaohou had said. The weakening of the wind was good news for everyone, as it would speed up their progress.
“Raging~~~~!!!!!!!!!”
"Violent!!!!!!"
As soon as he lifted the curtain, Zhang Xiaohou heard a few sharp cries.
Without even looking, Zhang Xiaohou was certain that these calls were exactly those of the patrolling feathered monsters!
After hearing the cry, Zhang Xiaohou quickly returned to the inside of the curtain tree.
As soon as Zhang Xiaohou returned, Zhao Tingxi asked, "Is there a patrolling feathered monster outside?"
Just when Zhang Xiaohou opened the curtain, the sounds from outside also came in.
Zhang Xiaohou nodded: "Yes, although I don't know why, but I always feel that these patrolling feather monsters are the same ones we encountered before."
"Ah? Could it be that they have been following us all the time?" Zhao Manyan asked.
"There is a possibility."
"But according to the nature of the patrolling feather monsters, they shouldn't just follow us without taking any action, right? In that case, what is their motive for following us?" Mo Fan was a little confused. Zhang Xiaohou thought for a while and said, "I guess they think we are stronger than them, and they don't have enough numbers, and their top combat power can't match us. In this case, they will arrange a small number of patrolling feather monsters to follow us, and when they gather enough people, they will attack us."
"If that's the case, what should we do?" Zhao Tingxi asked.
The rest of the people also looked at Zhang Xiaohou. Zhang Xiaohou was the local boss here, so they believed he was the right person.
"The safest way is for us to choose to avoid them and try our best to prevent them from noticing that we have left here," said Zhang Xiaohou.
"Earth escape!" Zhao Tingxi immediately understood what Zhang Xiaohou meant.
"That's right!" Zhang Xiaohou said with a smile, "If we can escape underground, and Brother Xi's magic protection can cover up our aura, my patrolling feather monsters should not be able to find us for a long time!"
"In that case, let's go!" said Zhao Tingxi.
"rely on you!"
"rest assured!"
As he spoke, Zhao Tingxi had already described a constellation, and the starlight from the constellation fell on everyone.
"Is everyone ready? I don't think this process will be very comfortable." Zhao Tingxi asked after looking around.
"I'm fine?"
"Me too."
"Lingling, what about you?" Zhao Tingxi looked at Lingling and asked.
Compared to others, Zhao Tingxi was more certain about Lingling's situation. When burrowing underground, there would be an inevitable feeling of oppression and the need to withstand a stronger gravity than the current one.
For a normal adult, it would be fine if they just gritted their teeth, not to mention the magician.
But Lingling is still a minor, and has not yet awakened her magic. Zhao Tingxi is worried about Lingling's physical condition. If she can't bear it, it will be a bit troublesome.
"Don't worry, I can bear it." Lingling nodded and said.
"Okay, in that case, let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Tingxi led everyone to dive about five meters underground. After escaping into the earth, everyone's expressions changed significantly. It was obvious that they had not yet adapted to the pressure of the earth. But soon, everyone adapted.
What surprised Zhao Tingxi was Lingling. After Lingling went underground, a transparent protective layer appeared on her body, helping Lingling to withstand the pressure of the earth.
"Xiao Hou, which direction should we go?" Zhao Tingxi looked at Zhang Xiaohou and asked.
Zhang Xiaohou thought about it, and based on his understanding of this area, he quickly determined a direction: "Go in this direction. After about two kilometers, we should be able to completely get rid of these patrolling feather monsters."
