Chapter 327 Shuren
Chen Ziyang, who fell backwards, instinctively stretched out his right hand, trying to grab something, but this time, he didn't hold the Five Emperors' Coin in his hand.When Yang Lei rescued him before, Chen Ziyang had already collected the five emperors' money.So this time, his waving right hand only caught the air, and his whole body quickly fell backwards.

Because it happened so suddenly, Yang Lei beside Chen Ziyang was unprepared. He didn't discover this abnormal situation until Chen Ziyang completely detached from the surface of the plant, but it was too late.

Seeing Chen Ziyang falling downwards, Yang Lei also instinctively stretched out his hand, trying to catch him, but Yang Lei's movements were a step slower, and his hand also missed.Fortunately, there was a rope connecting the two of them. Chen Ziyang felt his body shake violently, and the rope between him and Yang Lei was straightened.

Yang Lei, who was catching the air with one hand, is now firmly grasping a sharp thorn with his right hand, enduring the weight of Chen Ziyang's fall, but under the pull of the rope, the fallen Chen Ziyang suddenly Changing the direction, he no longer fell downwards, but swung towards the rock wall in front of him with the pull of the rope. At this moment, there were several long spikes in front of him.

Seeing this situation, Yang Lei, who wanted to help, couldn't use his strength. All the strength in his body had already been used on his feet and right hand. If Yang Lei loosened his strength, it is very likely that the two of them would fall together. Going down, so when he saw Chen Ziyang's spikes pounced in front of him, he could only act in a hurry.

Xiao Ren on the other side saw this situation, he knew that it was too late to climb down to block Chen Ziyang, now Chen Ziyang was only tens of centimeters away from the spike in front.

Fortunately, Xiao Ren's reaction was quicker. With a hasty shake of his hand, he took the backpack off his back and quickly threw it to the side. Xiao Ren's backpack slipped between Chen Ziyang and the spike.Chen Ziyang's body fell heavily on the backpack.

Because Xiao Ren's backpack contained some relatively hard objects, Chen Ziyang was not injured this time. The things in the backpack cleverly blocked the spikes, allowing Chen Ziyang to lean against the surface of the roots of these plants intact.

Seeing that Chen Ziyang saved himself from danger again, Yang Lei shouted to him in a tone that was almost crying: "Er Yang, my ancestor, you are my own grandfather, what's wrong with you now, when you see the high place Do you want to jump down, are you addicted to jumping?"

"Stop talking nonsense, get me up there quickly." Chen Ziyang said in fear, while he was thinking about the hallucination just now.This is not a good thing. Every time this hallucination appears, I enter a state of unconsciousness. This is very dangerous and prone to problems. This has happened twice in a row, maybe Next time your good luck will run out.

So during the rest of the journey, Chen Ziyang was extra careful. Even when he was crawling on the surface of the plants, he didn't dare to look in the direction of the cave. Similar hallucinations can occur.

Now several people finally understood why the crawling speed of Instructor Liu was fast at first and then slowed down. It was precisely because crawling on the surface of these plants was very difficult.

Although the spikes on these plants can be used to borrow strength, it is not too difficult for people to crawl. You just need to be careful not to let these spikes scratch your body, but the difficulty lies in this point .

Because it is necessary to avoid the sharp tips of these plants, everyone should bend their body into a bow as much as possible when crawling, so as to avoid the spikes on the plants.In this case, in addition to the strength of the hands and feet, everyone also needs to distribute part of the strength to the waist.

As time goes by, as the climbing distance increases, in addition to sore hands and feet, the stiffness and pain in the waist become more unbearable.And it is impossible for several people to move the waist back and forth to relieve the pain in the waist, so this kind of stiffness in the waist always exists.It is for this reason that the speed of the team has all slowed down.

Because Chen Ziyang almost fell into the abyss below twice in a row, so now Yang Lei has fixed part of his attention on Chen Ziyang, plus he is the last person in the team, There is no way to crawl at the speed he is used to, so he is the one who consumes the most energy in the whole team.

"It can't be done, it can't be done, brothers, brothers and sisters, rest... rest for a while." Yang Lei said after feeling that his hands holding the spikes had been trembling slightly, a little out of control.

The situation of the other people was not much better. After hearing Yang Lei's words, all four of them stopped at the same time.After wiping the sweat from their palms and twisting their waists left and right a few times, all four of them let out a sigh of relief.

"We're almost here, let's hold on." Seeing the location of the cave not far away, the team doctor turned around and said to several people.

"The more we rest, the longer we need to stay on the surface of these plants, which will consume more energy. It's better to muster up your strength once and hurry to the place before you can have a good rest."

"Big sister, I know what you said is right, but I really can't hold on anymore. If I try to climb forward again, I will fall down. Please hold your hand high and let me rest for another 2 minutes." Yang Lei rubbed With sweat on his forehead, he said in an almost begging tone.

At this time, the four people were already very close to the cave. Because of the angle, the statue of the woman could no longer be seen from the platform of the cave where Instructor Liu was located, so Chen Ziyang sneaked out of the corner of his eyes. He took a few glances at Instructor Liu standing on the platform, and he found that Instructor Liu was behaving very strangely.

At this time, Instructor Liu was like a fool, standing there in a daze, tilting his head, opening his mouth wide, looking straight into the cave.Instructor Liu's surprised expression looked very ridiculous.But Chen Ziyang didn't laugh, but showed a dignified expression.

What was it that surprised Instructor Liu so much?Although Instructor Liu's behavior was a little abnormal after the lizard tattoo was integrated into his body, he still did not lose his mind.

Moreover, Instructor Liu has been striving for his goal. He shouldn't just waste time like this. It seems that something should prevent him from taking the next step.It seems that the answer to this question can only be known when you get to the place.

After exhausting the last bit of strength in their bodies and climbing the remaining distance, all four of them collapsed on the platform, lying there motionless, only breathing deeply.

But this time it was very weird, Instructor Liu didn't urge a few people, he just stood there blankly, looking inside the cave.

After feeling that the sore muscles on his body had eased a lot, Chen Ziyang finally plucked up his courage, stood up, and looked in the direction of the cave.What he didn't expect was that when he saw the statue of this woman again this time, no hallucinations appeared in his mind.

On the contrary, after Chen Ziyang saw what was inside the cave this time, the expression on his face became as surprised as that of Instructor Liu, and he froze on the spot, only dumbfounded.

The things in the cave are too weird, so weird that it makes people feel creepy, and it's so weird that people feel a kind of shock from the depths of their hearts.The other few people were all surprised when they saw the things in the cave.Even out of surprise, they forgot to ask what was in the cave.

A tree trunk in the shape of a half-man grows from the roots of the plants on the cliff at the end of the cave.From the outline of this human-shaped trunk, it can be roughly seen that this is a woman, or a female treant, because there are two clusters of tall protrusions on her chest.

The color of this woman's skin is the same as that of the surrounding roots, and it is covered with dry cracks, like bark that has been dried for many years. The facial features of the female treant are very obvious, with glasses, nose, lips, and ears , and even can roughly see the shape of the nostrils.

This female treant only has an upper body. The treant grew from a height of more than one meter above the ground. The roots below the waist are connected to the rear. I don’t know if this female treant originally only had an upper body, or this woman The treant is a complete human figure, but her lower body is squeezed into the root system of the plants behind, so she cannot be seen at all.

Several vine-like things a few centimeters thick protruded from the abdomen of the female treant, and stretched into the stone platform below.Looking down these vine-like things, Chen Ziyang suddenly found that the ground here was very strange.

Except for the ground, the cave is full of plant roots, but there are no plants growing on the ground of the cave, which is very similar to the weird passage before.

But the floor of the cave is not an ordinary shale rock like the passage, but the same material as the round stone platform and the square stone platform that Chen Ziyang saw before.Moreover, this large stone platform is also covered with those grooves that Chen Ziyang is all too familiar with.

These grooves on the ground of the stone platform covered the entire ground, protruding from all sides of the ground, and converging to the center of the stone platform, which is not far in front of Instructor Liu.

At the intersection point in the middle of these lines, there are two palm-sized eye-shaped patterns, and there is a groove at the pupil of this eye-shaped pattern.

Although the lines on the stone platform and this groove were covered with a lot of sundries and dust, Chen Ziyang could tell at a glance that this groove should be used to place diamonds.

"Er Yang, what is this? Is it a human? Or a plant? If it is a human, why does it look like a plant? If it is a plant, why are her facial features so clear and lifelike? Like a living person?" After being surprised for a long time, Yang Lei asked in surprise.

Although Chen Ziyang didn't understand the object in front of him, he could tell from the face of this female Shuren that this woman was the one who brought diamonds to the ancient country of Yumi in the mural, and she also appeared in front of him several times. The woman in my mind, it was her, kept calling me to this place.

At the same time, Chen Ziyang also found that the roots growing behind this female treant were also very unreasonable.The root system of a normal plant is thicker closer to the trunk and thinner farther away from the trunk.After a few people got into the old tree, all the roots grew like this.

But the plant root system behind this female treant is not the case.Although these roots are not as thick as what Chen Ziyang saw before, and these roots are no different from others, with spikes growing on them, but what Chen Ziyang feels strange is the growth of these roots Way.

Near the waist of this female treant, there are dozens of plant roots, extending in all directions in a scattered shape.These root systems changed from thick to thin, but the thick part was close to the waist of the female treant, and it looked as if the roots had grown from the waist of the female treant.

The female treant and the root system around her give people the overall feeling, as if the woman is the trunk of a big tree, and the other root systems are the roots growing from the woman.

While Chen Ziyang was carefully observing the female tree figure, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something on the chest of the female tree figure.

Although the female treant's chest looked no different from other places, Chen Ziyang saw that there was an area with a strange outline above the woman's twin peaks.It was as if a chameleon had turned into the color of the skin of a female treant and lay there.

Seeing this strange place, Chen Ziyang walked forward slowly, stroked this area gently with his right hand, and wiped off some sundries on this area.

"Er Yang, you touched the wrong place." Seeing Chen Ziyang's actions, Yang Lei misunderstood his meaning, thinking that Chen Ziyang was taking advantage of this female Shuren.

After turning around and giving Yang Lei a blank look.The sundries covering this area gradually fell off, revealing an eye-shaped gold sign.Seeing this thing, Chen Ziyang knew that it was the necklace worn by the woman who appeared on the mural before.

As soon as Yang Lei standing behind Chen Ziyang saw the thing made of gold, he immediately forgot the pain all over his body, stepped forward hurriedly, stretched out his hand, and wanted to hold the gold plate in his hand.But his outstretched hand was grabbed by Chen Ziyang.

"Crazy thinking about money, do you dare to mess with anything? Get the hell out of here." Chen Ziyang yelled at Yang Lei loudly.

"You're ashamed to say me. I didn't know who it was just now. When I saw something on the woman's chest, I came up and touched it." Yang Lei muttered unwillingly as he stepped back.

"Mr. Chen, let's do it." Instructor Liu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said.
