The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 637 There is one more person
This is just like the wildebeest on the African prairie can run as soon as it is born, but it takes more than two years for human children to walk. Nature and heaven have their own arrangements.The stronger the creatures, the more aura they need to store, and at the same time, the more time they need.

And as a sacred tree that only exists in legends, like Toon Tree Jianmu, the Undead Tree also has such characteristics.Not to mention that it will grow up under the watchful eyes of the little fox, even if it is placed on Lu Fu's table, until Xiaochen's yard no longer exists, the immortal tree may not necessarily grow up.

The reason why Xiaochen said this was not because he thought the little fox was wrong, but because when they saw the undead tree, the undead tree was obviously not as big as he saw it.

Even when he was sent to this place, because of the darkness, Xiaochen didn't see the size of the undead tree clearly, but in the afternoon, he walked into Lu Axe's room with Yuan Mu and the others. When I saw the undead tree on the table, the undead tree I saw was indeed the size of a normal potted plant - from Xiaochen's visual inspection, it was at least 20 centimeters, and From the little fox's gestures just now, it can be seen that the undead tree is only more than ten centimeters at most.

According to normal circumstances, it would take at least tens of thousands of years for an undead tree to grow more than ten centimeters.

Otherwise, as the sacred tree of the bird clan, it would have spread all over the place where the bird clan lived, so it would not be so precious.Where would it be like now, just a branch sent by the peacock made them so excited?As for why it is so rare as the sacred tree of the bird tribe, Xiaochen had also thought about the whole reason.

Although she is not a monster known for her intelligence, Xiaochen's IQ is still at a normal level. When a question keeps bothering her, she always seeks the answer intentionally or unintentionally, and she finds the answer in the end. up.Just like the cultivation of monsters requires spiritual power, the growth of the sacred tree requires spiritual power even more. There was even such a legend that the root system of the sacred tree can go straight to the earth's veins.

And the earth veins contain the most spiritual energy in China.This is why the sacred trees can grow safely.Of course, no one has ever verified this legend, but even so, it is enough to see that the growth of the sacred tree is not easy.

The toon tree is also a sacred tree, and finally supports the entire mountain and sea. It is impossible for the undead tree, which is also a sacred tree, to grow so fast.Let alone a divine tree, even the trees seen in the ordinary human world cannot grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Therefore, there is no need to think about it, there must be a problem.

"Next, what did you do?" Of course, Xiaochen knew these things in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud.After all, Xiaochen was the only one who saw the undead tree afterwards, and the other three people had disappeared before Xiaochen and Yuan Mu saw the undead tree.

In other words, it didn't disappear, or it had already arrived at this place.

"Then...then..." The little fox seemed to be at a loss when he said this. He turned his head to look at Chi Dun, then at Lu Axe, and finally fixed his gaze on Xiaochen's face. He lowered his head Head lowered his voice and said, "I reached out and touched its leaves."

The little fox's voice was not without guilt. He had never dared to say it before, and he never had the opportunity to say it.

Because he didn't know how to start it, not to mention he didn't think that this matter could have anything to do with him. Until now, as Xiaochen asked each word slowly, all the questions were exposed in a few cocoons. In the eyes of people, the little fox at this time realized that this matter seemed to have something to do with him.

However, when realizing all this, it seems to be too late.

Next, the overwhelming guilt overwhelmed the little fox.

He thought, why is he so cheap?Why can't you control your hands so much?Why would you want to touch that undead tree?Obviously knowing that it is such a precious sacred tree...

It is because he knows that the little fox feels that he may never have a second chance to get so close to such a sacred tree in his life.So motivated by curiosity and various emotions, he stretched out his hand.If you ask him now and give him another chance, what will he do.

Presumably the little fox would still reach out and touch the tree.

But now, it's obviously not the time to feel guilty, even if the little fox doesn't want to, he still has to tell the truth.

Because he knew that if no one knew what was going on, then no one would be able to fix the problem, which meant that they might be stuck in this place forever.

The little fox doesn't want to be trapped in this place. He misses Yuebing, Yang Yang, Michelle, his succulents, all his friends in the human world, and things closely related to him.

So, he told the truth.

At the same time, he turned his hopeful eyes to Lu Ax. If there is anyone in this world who can find out the truth, it must be Lu Ax.

This is also the reason why he chooses to speak out what he has done. He needs a decision. If he does not speak out, this matter may become a knot in his heart and eventually become a heart disease.

Just like no one in this world knows the undead tree better than Lu Ax, the little fox knows that no one in this world forces Lu Ax to be more qualified to make this judgment.

If Lu Ax said that things turned out like this and had nothing to do with him, then he could feel relieved.

On the contrary, if Lu Ax said that it was because of his actions that things turned out like this, then the little fox could let go of the stone in his heart a little bit and try his best to make up for this matter.

Lu Ax didn't know what the little fox was thinking, but he saw some pleading in his eyes, so he blinked and said, "This matter...it shouldn't be..."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Xiaochen frowned upon hearing Lu Ax say this.In fact, after the little fox said that she touched the leaves of the undead tree, she had a bad thought in her heart, but it was just a flash of thought, and after hearing Lu Fu's words, she immediately turned her attention turned around.

Not for anything else, the Undead Tree was brought back to life in his hands, naturally he gave you the right to speak among these people.

"You touched it, and then?" Lu Ax seemed to have not heard Xiaochen's question, focusing all his attention on the little fox, and asked: "Then what else did you do? "

"Then... I... I didn't do anything!" The little fox was so nervous that he was about to cry when he asked him so, and he said in a crying voice: "After I touched its leaves, I heard A small sigh came from my ear, but I turned my head and saw nothing, and then I felt something shining behind me, and when I turned my head, there was a light, and after that, I didn't know anything."

What the little fox said coincided with what Lu Fu said. Logically speaking, there is nothing to ask, but who is Xiaochen? She has always been eccentric. She never let go of sensitive places.

For example, now, she suddenly noticed that before she knew it, Chi Dun had disappeared again.Whether it was in Lu Ax's narration or in what the little fox said just now, there was no Chi Dun, and there should have been three people in the house at that time.

"Are you sure that there is nothing missing?" Xiaochen didn't ask her directly, but asked with some hints.

"No..." Yes!Just when the little fox was about to say this, he suddenly froze, because he suddenly remembered something, which was the same as what Xiaochen had thought of - when he turned his head, he only saw him sleeping on the sofa Lu Ax.And Chi Dun, who was supposed to be in the room with them, disappeared.The little fox had never thought about this question before. He always felt that it was because he was too nervous that he didn't see it.

But now that I think about it, I was really too nervous, so I didn't see it?Did you not see it, or is it true that he is not there?

The little fox is not a simple child like his appearance. In this place, in such an environment and situation, it is obviously not a good choice for his companions to suspect each other.So after thinking about it for a while, he chose to remain silent, but suddenly asked a question: "By the way, sister Xiaochen, when did you find out that we disappeared?"

"It was discovered by Yuebing at night." Xiaochen said, and briefly stated what they were investigating. Of course, she concealed many details. Although there is no evidence or reason, her Her sixth sense was warning her that there were places where it was best to keep silent.

"So that means, when you came back, you didn't find us missing?" After listening to Xiaochen's words, the little fox extracted the key points from it, blinked his eyes and said, "Then when you came back, what time is it?" ah?"

After hearing what he said, Xiaochen was slightly taken aback, and then suddenly laughed: "It should be within an hour after you disappeared."

After she finished speaking, she exchanged glances with the little fox, and then both of them turned their gazes to Chi Dun, who hadn't spoken to him.And the latter, under the eyes of the two, finally slowly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
