Chapter 242 The center of the red blood grassland
It was not until the seven people walked for a long time that Lu Shuangyang stood up.
Because they didn't know the details of the seven people, Lu Shuangyang did not dare to stand up too early to avoid being discovered by those people.
"What do you think of those seven people?" Lu Shuangyang asked in a low voice, and the person he was asking was naturally Lin Yin in Lingxuan Branch.
Lin Yin whispered: "If you guessed correctly, you should be from a certain empire in the second heaven..."
"Nonsense..." Lu Shuangyang rolled his eyes, "At a glance, they knew they were soldiers, and soldiers did not have them in the first rank. Only the second rank empire will have such soldiers. What I want to ask is, don't you claim to be knowledgeable? Didn't you see which empire they came from?"
"No," Lin Yin said helplessly, "they were wearing the most common and ordinary military uniforms of the second-level rank. I'm afraid it's difficult to pursue their identities even if they are discovered."
Lu Shuangyang fell into thinking. He originally thought that with his current strength, although he could not say that he could do whatever he wanted, he would not be helpless when encountering danger. But now Lu Shuangyang understood that he still underestimated the top ten evil places too much.
Perhaps because the last adventure in Absolute Zero Lake was too smooth, Lu Shuangyang didn't think that he had become stronger and could successfully find the magical object here in this Red Blood Grassland...
But first there was a sudden tide of beasts, and then he met a soldier from the second-level rank. If something happened, Lu Shuangyang felt that he could accept it.
"What should I do now? If the heavenly empire intervenes, things will become more complicated. With your current team, it is tantamount to hitting stones with eggs. After all, there are many people on your side, but there are only a few people who are truly combat-capable." Lin Yin expressed his opinion.
Even if Lin Yin doesn't say it, Lu Shuangyang also knows how bad the situation is now, but this action is not decided by him alone, nor does he refuse to do it if he wants to.
Moreover, although he knew that there were still many troubles ahead, Lu Shuangyang himself wanted to continue exploring. After all, many things happened in this place that he could not easily forget. Now he has come here again for a long time. If he doesn't take this opportunity to understand everything, it will probably be difficult to have another chance in the future.
"Don't make this public for now. If others know about it, they don't know what kind of reaction it will cause. I will join the other people and talk to Qian Duo and his seniors after this." Lu Shuangyang made the decision.
Lin Yin doesn't care. Anyway, she just put forward her own suggestions. In the end, she depends on Lu Shuangyang's own will. Now she has no ability to hinder Lu Shuangyang's actions.
Lu Shuangyang didn't say anything more and slowly returned to everyone.
After returning, Lu Shuangyang chatted with everyone calmly for a few words, and then went to rest, but everyone could not see anything unusual.
As soon as the next day dawn, Lu Shuangyang and his group quickly packed up and continued to rush on this endless blood-red grassland.
The group was very relaxed because they had just experienced the beast tide the day before, and many people felt a little slack in their hearts because of the disaster.
Lu Shuangyang was the only one among the people who did not relax his vigilance, because he knew very well that in this red grassland, there were things that might be more dangerous than the threats that existed in the grassland itself... Those imperial soldiers from the second-level rank, even if those people were just ordinary soldiers, their strength should have surpassed most of the people in the first-level rank, and although they were not close to those people, Lu Shuangyang was sure that although the strength of those people was wearing the clothes of ordinary soldiers, they were definitely not as simple as ordinary soldiers.
Because it is impossible to sense the fluctuations of the mysterious energy in this red blood grassland, it is possible even if those soldiers suddenly appear in front of them. Therefore, Lu Shuangyang has always wanted to pay attention to all the movements around him. Whenever something is wrong, he will take everyone to detour with various reasons.
Because of Lu Shuangyang's previous performances, everyone in the team trusted him very much, so even if they didn't understand what was going on, they still followed Lu Shuangyang to take a detour... For this reason, although Lu Shuangyang and his group took a lot of long journeys, they also saved a lot of trouble along the way because of Lu Shuangyang's caution.
Jiang Xiaoqi was a little confused about Lu Shuangyang's behavior, because she had been traveling with Lu Shuangyang for a while and understood some of the performances in Lu Shuangyang's trip, but Lu Shuangyang seemed too cautious today.
Not only today, Jiang Xiaoqi keenly realized that after Lu Shuangyang came back last night, his expression became a little wrong. Although Jiang Xiaoqi herself couldn't explain something wrong, it was wrong anyway. This is a woman's intuition... I have to say that women's intuition really cannot be underestimated.
Jiang Xiaoqi is the only person in the entire team who noticed that Shuangyang was strange, but she didn't say much. After all, she had absolute trust in Lu Shuangyang. If he didn't say it, Jiang Xiaoqi wouldn't say it.
...
Lu Shuangyang led the team around the Red Blood Grassland for several days and finally arrived at the meeting place agreed with the head of Qian and the others.
Lu Shuangyang walked a long way. When he reached the junction, the team of the head of Qian and Guo Yi's team had already arrived and camped for several days.
If it weren't for having a certain confidence in Lu Shuangyang's strength, after waiting for so many days, I'd probably have to believe that Lu Shuangyang's team was destroyed, the head of the Qian family and Guo Di
As soon as we were about to leave Lu Shuangyang and his group to continue moving forward.
"You're finally here."
Guo Zhi and the head of Qian saw Lu Shuangyang and his group from afar, and the two quickly came to Lu Shuangyang's team.
"Sorry, we're late..." Lu Shuangyang said embarrassedly. He knew very well that they were late for a long time. He turned around and looked at Jiang Xiaoqi, "You take everyone to camp and rest first. I'll have a little chat with the two heads of the family."
Jiang Xiaoqi nodded with a smile. The three teams finally met. The leaders of the three teams naturally had a lot to talk about. She came with Lu Shuangyang, just follow the arrangements.
Guo Zhi and the head of Qian looked at the group of people brought by Lu Shuangyang. Not only did he have a single person, but he also found that there were no obvious injuries on everyone... Guo Zhi and the head of Qian were both a little surprised.
"Although it took a lot of time, it seems that you have not encountered any big trouble along the way." Guo Zhi smiled bitterly.
Lu Shuangyang shrugged helplessly: "Because every time there is any movement, I will immediately lead everyone to detours, so we don't encounter any major trouble..."
"So that's it," Guo Zhi nodded in admiration, "Although it took a lot of time to avoid danger, it kept the team in its best state."
Lu Shuangyang looked at the camp and saw that at first glance, he had already noticed that except for Lu Shuangyang's team of troops, Qian Jiajia was less than twenty people in the camp, and it was obvious that everyone was more or less injured.
"Stop talking about me, your two teams seem to have fewer people."
After hearing what Lu Shuangyang said, Guo Zhi and the head of Qian felt a little embarrassed... Although Lu Shuangyang had outstanding strength, he was just a junior to the two. Logically speaking, they said that their experience in the martial arts world should be much more than Lu Shuangyang, but the teams they led had more or less casualties...
Five people died in the Qian family's team, and all five survived were seriously injured.
Guo No. 1's team, one person died, four of the remaining nine were seriously injured, and five were slightly injured...
It's a bit terrible to compare with Lu Shuangyang's team...
The head of Qian sighed: "Three people died in the beast tide, and the remaining seven people were injured at that time. Then they encountered a lot of trouble later, and two more people died."
"My situation is that during the beast tide, I used a secret method to concentrate everyone's mysterious energy on me, and then used the concentrated huge mysterious energy to save everyone, but the others could not use the mysterious energy in the next few days... And in the next few days, I encountered a lot of trouble because I was eager to go on the road, and I mishandled it, resulting in one person's death and the others being injured..." Speaking of this, Guo Zi really felt ashamed...
Lu Shuangyang also briefly talked about his situation in the beast tide.
"Flying mysterious skills?" Guo Yi said, "You actually know how to fly mysterious skills... If it weren't for my mysterious tower, I would also like to learn it!"
I won’t say much about Guo Zi’s Xuan Pagoda. Anyway, it is related to "wood", and the growth of trees is inseparable from the ground. In other words, if you want to exert the strongest power of his Xuan Pagoda, you must rely on the ground. Therefore, flying mysterious skills can be said to be the worst in terms of Guo Zi’s Xuan Pagoda.
"Not to talk about this..." Lu Shuangyang's expression suddenly became very serious.
Seeing Lu Shuangyang's expression, the head of Qian and Guo Zhi were also confused: "What's wrong? Is something happening?"
Lu Shuangyang asked: "Have you found traces of people along the way, and traces of people other than us?"
"The traces of people?" Guo Yi and the head of the Qian family were stunned at first, and then showed a surprised expression, "What do you mean is that now, in this grassland, there are other people outside our group?"
Lu Shuangyang nodded calmly, and then briefly talked about what he had encountered that night after the beast tide.
After listening to Lu Shuangyang's words, the head of the Qian family and Guo Zhi fell into deep thought. This trip to the Red Blood Grassland was very dangerous, but now I heard that there are other people besides them, which is beyond the original plan.
Guo Yi was a person who had seen the world after all, and soon came to his senses: "You are sure they are soldiers. After all, only the empires of the heavenly rank have regular soldiers. Logically speaking, they should not dare to interfere in the affairs of the heavenly rank."
"This is not necessarily the case. Although this place is the top ten evil places, it is also the location of one of the top ten divine objects. Do you think the empire at the top of the heavenly level will not be moved by the top ten divine objects?"
Guo First had nothing to say about Lu Shuangyang's doubts, because Lu Shuangyang was right at all. Although the empires on the surface dared not do anything randomly, who knew whether they would be able to use all kinds of means secretly.
"Those soldiers were just wearing ordinary military uniforms, but judging from their words and deeds, they were not as simple as ordinary soldiers. I'm afraid that the ordinary military uniform was to confuse the public. Even if they were discovered, we could not confirm which empire they came from, so naturally we could not pursue it." Lu Shuangyang said his own conclusion.
"If we face those people, how sure can we defeat them?" Qian Duo's head asked a practical question, whether we can win.
Lu Shuangyang rolled his eyes: "Are you sure you meet them? What we need to be sure of is how confident we are to beat them?
”
Guo Yi also agreed with Lu Shuangyang's words: "If it is true as Mr. Lu said, their strength may not be simple. When we meet them, we must be sure that we have some confidence to escape from them..."
The head of the Qian family was sweating coldly when Guo Yi said this. Is the second-level army really that scary?
Although the head of Qian family has a certain strength, he is only a businessman after all. He has had a lot of contact with people from the heavenly rank, but he has never had contact with the army. Because he has no personal experience, he cannot understand the strength of the second-level soldiers.
"So, what should we do next?" Lu Shuangyang threw out the last question. He said so much before, just to throw out this question. After learning that there are soldiers from the heavenly rank intervening, what decisions will the other two make?
Guo Yi and the head of Qian were silent at the same time. At this time, they were thinking about the same question in their minds. Should they continue to explore...
Looking at the two people who fell silent, Lu Shuangyang sighed slightly and said, "Although it is dangerous to know, I think both of you still want to continue exploring."
"Why do you say that?"
Guo Yi and the head of Qian looked at Lu Shuangyang at the same time.
"Because you both have reasons to continue exploring." Lu Shuangyang said calmly.
The head of the Qian family said, "Do you know that Mr. Lu?"
Lu Shuangyang nodded slightly: "Master Qian, you are a businessman, you naturally want to make money. You are already the richest person in the first rank, but this level is only slightly able to reach the eyes of people in the heavenly rank. If you want to do a bigger business, you naturally need to have more attractive products. You may have learned from some channels that there are some news about cherishing spiritual objects deep in the Red Blood Grassland. This is your goal!"
After hearing this, the head of Qian just laughed but said nothing.
"What about me? Mr. Lu, do you know what my purpose is?" Guo Zhi looked at Lu Shuangyang with a smile.
Lu Shuangyang nodded: "I'm afraid Senior Guo has encountered a bottleneck in his practice."
"Oh!" Guo Zhi showed a surprised expression, "How did you see this?"
Lu Shuangyang said calmly: "When I fought with my senior before, I could feel that the powerful mysterious energy in my senior's body seemed to be running smoothly, so I speculate that my senior should have encountered a bottleneck in his practice, otherwise he would not agree to the head of Qian's family to take the risk."
"Hahaha..." Guo Zhi smiled helplessly, "You kid, not only have outstanding strength, extraordinary mysterious energy, but also have calm scheming. It's not simple..."
"That's right," said Guo Yi simply admitted that, "I did encounter a bottleneck in my practice. My cultivation level has been stuck at this stage for a long time and has not been able to break through. A few days ago, I just came to me for help. After thinking for a few days, I decided to come because the basis of my Xuanta is wood, and the wood here has plenty of spiritual energy. I hope to find an opportunity to break through here..."
"I think Mr. Lu has a reason to continue." The head of the Qian family showed a businessman-like smile. "Your reason should be something that happened several years ago. Although I don't know what happened to you entering this grassland a few years ago, I'm afraid that what happened back then was the reason you continued to explore."
Lu Shuangyang nodded. That incident was indeed his reason, but it was only one of them. He would not say that his target was a divine object.
Guo Zhi laughed softly: "Since we all have reasons to continue our work, what else can we discuss? We have to continue exploring anyway, so let's talk about the next exploration plan."
Lu Shuangyang said that he defaulted on this.
"Come and have a look."
After the head of Qian said that, he walked in one direction. Lu Shuangyang and the head of Qian looked at each other and followed.
Before leaving the camp mathematics, the three stopped.
"Look!"
Lu Shuangyang and Guo Zhi looked along the front of the head of Qian...
In front of them, the grassland gradually sank down, and from a distance, a huge basin has formed...
And hundreds of miles away, you can see the stout figure extending upward from the ground in a blur. Because it is trapped, it can only be seen at the edge of the basin, and it cannot be seen outside the Red Blood Grassland...
"What is that?" Lu Shuangyang and Guo Zhi both showed a surprised expression. It was the first time they both came to such an in-depth location in the Red Blood Grassland that they realized that there was such a scene in the center of the Red Blood Grassland.
"There is our destination..." said the Qian family leader.
Accompanied by the breeze, waves of roar came from that direction, with a hint of danger.
"The huge vegetation that emerges from the ground is probably the root of the Red Blood Grassland. The tiny clones planted here are spread throughout the grassland, just like the wood you got before..." The head of the Qian family looked at Lu Shuangyang.
Lu Shuangyang didn't say anything: "Rumor, under the huge vegetation, there are rare spiritual objects that even the masters of the heavenly rank are salivating. That's my purpose... and the wood attributes there are rich mysterious energy. Lao Guo, that should help you... Finally, there may be everything that Master Lu wants to know..."
Lu Shuangyang didn't say anything, just looked at the huge vegetation protruding from the ground...
