"Damn, I must be crazy..." Along the way, Zhang Tie had said the same words to himself no less than fifty times, but no matter what, the thought that popped up in his heart kept driving Zhang Tie. Run to the river beach where we killed a wild wolf yesterday.
It was already the early morning of the next day. Zhang Tie got up even earlier than usual. When Zhang Tie came to the edge of the river beach where he had fought with wild wolves in the Soul Tribulation Realm yesterday, the eastern sky barely showed a trace of white. However, in the valley, it was still a little dark. The two moons in the sky turned into two big silver disks that were about to be completed, one big and one small. Together with the few stubborn stars around them that refused to disappear, they barely gave way. Zhang Tie could clearly see the road between the valleys.
At this time, the other trialists should not have gotten up yet, or had just gotten up. There were absolutely few people who would appear more than ten kilometers away from the Wild Wolf Castle for no reason. Except Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie ran all the way from Stronghold No. 2, and the dew on the grass blades made less than half of his trousers wet.
Zhang Tie carried a spear bag on his back and a dagger and sword on his waist. When he came to the river, he squatted by the river and observed carefully. There was no one around and there were no dangerous creatures such as crocodiles in the river. Then Zhang Tie Tie remembered that there was a red willow tree with a crooked neck on the bank where he had the last fierce battle with the wild wolf in the Soul Tribulation Realm yesterday. Zhang Tie also found the red willow tree, and then next to the red willow tree, Zhang Tie put his back He took off the spear bag and hung it on the willow tree, then took off the sword, took off his shoes, pants and clothes. Finally, with only a dagger in his hand, he jumped into the river naked.
The river water in the morning was freezing cold. As soon as Zhang Tie's feet entered the river, the hair on his whole body was frozen to the point of exploding.
"Damn, I must be crazy..." Zhang Tie was nagging while enduring the cold. Walking towards the place in his memory where he was killed by a wild wolf in the Soul Tribulation Realm yesterday.
There was mud on the edge of the river beach, and the river water gradually flooded Zhang Tie's thighs. It was very difficult to walk in the mud, especially as Zhang Tie was still carefully groping for something in the mud with his feet while walking.
That place was less than ten meters away from the shore. After walking there, Zhang Tie slowed down and slowly began to explore the surrounding small area with his feet. After only five minutes, he was groping for Zhang Tie made a discovery. He felt that in the mud under his feet, there was something the same as yesterday, and he finally stepped on it.
Zhang Tie tried to fiddle with the thing with his feet, but he didn't expect that the thing was very heavy, and it seemed that part of it was buried in the mud. Zhang Tie explored it with his feet, and the thing seemed to look a bit like a horn. But it's definitely heavier than a cow's horn. I couldn't lift the thing out of the mud with my feet. Zhang Tie had no choice but to throw the dagger onto the shore, then concentrate on breathing with his eyes, squat down into the water, let the filthy muddy water cover his head, touch his feet with both hands, and then use all his strength to Pull out the thing from the mud.
That thing is heavy. It weighed at least more than 20 kilograms, and it felt a little lighter in the water. As soon as he left the water, Zhang Tie felt that the weight of the thing he was holding had increased.
There is really something in the river. It really seems to be a horn! Zhang Tie's heart was beating loudly, and he didn't have time to carefully examine what was in his hand. He just shook the thing in the water and let the water wash away a little of the mud on it, and then I spread the water again, stepped on the mud, and walked towards the shore step by step.
When he walked to the shore, Zhang Tie put the thing under the red willow tree, got on the shore, and then walked naked to a place next to the red willow tree where the water was slightly cleaner, and casually washed the mud on his body with water. , while washing his body, Zhang Tie found that there were two pieces of "mud" on his calves that seemed to be firmly stuck to his legs and could not be washed away no matter how hard he washed them. When he touched them with his hands, the two pieces of "mud" were soft and soft. Zhang Tie was startled by the touch. This was not mud at all, but something.
Zhang Tie was so frightened that he screamed and swatted it with his hands in a panic, but couldn't get it off. Zhang Tie pinched the thing with his hands and tried to pull it away from his hungry calf. Unexpectedly, the thing bit Zhang Tie tightly. Tie's skin was not let go, and it was already more than ten centimeters long and was still firmly attached to Zhang Tie's body.
"Ah..." Zhang Tie yelled in panic. With a strong force on his hand, he tore off the soft thing and threw it to the ground. There was another one, and Zhang Tie pulled it off again. Come down and hit the ground hard. Seeing that the thing was still squirming on the ground, and there was already a small wound where it was stung by the two things, and it started to bleed, Zhang Tie felt frightened again, and he quickly checked his body from head to toe. The whole body, especially the buttocks, the back and the area around the little brother, fortunately, were gone. Then he started to get dressed in a hurry. At the stall where he was getting dressed, Zhang Tie remembered the two things that bit him. They must be locusts. Damn it, the feeling of being stung by two locusts suddenly felt more hair-raising than being stared at by two giant wolves. These molluscs are really terrifying.
Zhang Tie, who was a little pale, hurriedly put on his clothes. After being equipped with his spear pouch, sword and dagger again, he picked up the horn-like thing he had thrown next to the root of the tree and looked around. There was still no one around, so he took the thing and quickly disappeared by the river, speeding up and running towards his footing.
Zhang Tie moved quickly. When the east was completely white, Zhang Tie came to the first place he found, the cave made by the gold-eating python. The natural trace system at the entrance of the cave told Zhang Tie that there was no one here after he left. Animals had come, so Zhang Tie felt relieved and without lighting the torch, he walked into the cave based on his memory and feelings, came to a hidden place, locked the magical arch in his mind, and then entered the Black Iron fort.
—The handsome and majestic Lord of the Castle, welcome you to the Black Iron Castle!
This is the unshakable daily greeting of Black Iron Castle. When this line of text disappeared, Zhang Tie had already taken off his equipment and walked to the small pool alone holding the strange horn-like thing. Go up, squat down, and place your hand on the ground beside the pool. He grabbed a handful of grass and scrubbed it vigorously.
After the mud on his body was wiped away by the clear spring water and green grass, the thing held in Zhang Tie's hand slowly revealed its true colors.
It was an aqua blue one, with a metal-like texture and luster and a special cloud-like pattern. It was like the tip of a broken spear, and was about forty meters long, like a horn. This thing is definitely not a horn, Zhang Tie can be sure of this.
This thing is very beautiful and very heavy, whether it is its clear color, its texture or those innate mysterious patterns. They all exuded an unusual charm. Zhang Tie held this thing in his hand and looked at it over and over for a long time, but he still didn't understand what it was.
Maybe, when I have enough money to buy a house for my parents, I can put this thing at home. Judging from the color and pattern, it seems like it could be used as a good decoration. Mom will probably like it! Zhang Tie thought so. Then he threw this thing aside casually. This is Zhang Tie's character. Since he doesn't understand it, there is no need to waste time on this thing. With this little time, it is better to think about how to improve his strength.
And when it comes to how to improve your own strength. But it reminded Zhang Tie of what happened in the Realm of Soul Tribulation. Zhang Tie was finally sure that everything in the Realm of Soul Tribulation was true. Perhaps the Soul Tribulation Realm is like a mirror. As long as there is something in the real world, the mirror can reflect it 100%, without missing a beat. For a mirror, there is no difference at all between a tree or a golden mountain. , because it is not creating, but just reacting. The things inside are just a projection of the real world. Because there is such a strange thing in the mud of the river beach in reality, there is something in the realm of soul robbery. Yes, everything is that simple. In the Soul Tribulation Realm, this thing may be no different from a stone or a tree on the roadside, because in reality it looks like this, where it is, so in the Soul Tribulation Realm, it also looks like this, in There, that's all.
Thinking again of the two blood-sucking locusts he had just met in the river, Zhang Tie's mind became clear, and he finally fully understood all the mysteries of the Soul Tribulation Realm—except for spiritual beings, the Soul Tribulation Realm It is a complete projection of the entire real world. The entire Soul Tribulation realm, except for the spiritual creatures inside, is the same as reality. In the realm of soul calamity, even an ant or a locust will not appear inside as long as it is not killed by oneself and then chosen to be activated. On the other hand, as long as it exists in reality, even if it is oneself As long as things that are not seen or sensed exist in reality, they will also exist in the scene of the Soul Tribulation Realm.
From this point of view, the meaning of the Soul Tribulation Fruit, in addition to allowing you to constantly fight with various creatures inside, its other function seems to be to allow you to be able to present every detail without any mistakes, 100%. Be familiar with the real "battlefield" of fighting those creatures. Think about it, even a thing hidden deep in the mud of the river beach was revealed in the Soul Tribulation Realm. There is nothing else that cannot be revealed in such a "battlefield".
There seemed to be some inspiration related to the Soul Tribulation Realm flashing through Zhang Tie's mind, but Zhang Tie didn't catch it. He just felt that his heart seemed to tremble with excitement, and Zhang Tie scratched his head. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't catch a fleeting inspiration. Then Zhang Tie stopped worrying about it and suddenly discovered the subtle connection between the realm of soul robbery and reality. For Zhang Tie, it was the biggest gain today. Okay, what else is he dissatisfied with
Therefore, Zhang Tie was in a good mood and had high fighting spirit. When he was about to leave the Black Iron Castle, Zhang Tie found that he still seemed to have a muddy smell on his body. It was probably because he had just washed it casually by the river and did not wash it off. , and then Zhang Tie simply took off his clothes again, took a quick and clean bath in the pool, and then stood up from the pool naked.
As soon as the whole person became clean, his sense of smell also became more sensitive. When Zhang Tie wanted to put on clothes after cleaning, he found that the smell of the clothes already had a sour smell. After careful calculation, he was almost one. I haven't changed my clothes for a week. Lone travelers are human beings too, and they also have to eat, sweat, poop and sleep. Even if you are a cool loner, if you wear the same clothes for a week without changing them, they will not be clean. There will also be a strange smell. If a loner is If he doesn't change his clothes once a month in the wild, then he doesn't have to go hunting. Those prey will be scared away if they smell his scent from hundreds of meters away. Such a lone traveler, let alone the prey, may not even be able to hunt. No one dares to come within a five-meter radius of such a person. The strange smell on his body is enough to kill everything.
Zhang Tie doesn't want to be a "loner" who smells bad. Zhang Tie himself doesn't like such a loner, and Zhang Tie doesn't think any girl will like him either...
Fortunately, Zhang Tie brought more than one set of clothes and shoes when he came to the trial this time, and those changes of clothes and luggage are now in the Black Iron Castle. ? Zhang Tie, who was naked buttocks, looked down at his newly plumped bird, "Don't worry, there are still a lot of girls waiting for you. Even for your future sexual happiness, I will work hard to maintain it." Since we are clean and fresh, we won’t go anywhere this morning. We’ll just wash our clothes and do some hygiene. What do you think?”
Then Zhang Tie held the little bird with his hand, shook it twice harshly, and said in a different voice, "Okay! But I have missed Alice and Beverly so much these past two days. I think about having sex with them every day." Some disgusting and scary things, I want to play with their little goldfish every day, what do you think I should do?"
Zhang Tie's voice changed again, "Don't worry, as long as I am stronger and more powerful, they will be more inseparable from me. Sooner or later, they will all be yours, and their little goldfish will also be yours!"
Thinking of the three girls' little goldfish, Zhang Tie's little bird instantly expanded into a big bird, and he seemed to wake up all of a sudden. "Then you have to work hard!" Zhang Tie said to himself again with a changed voice.
"I will, beautiful women are the source of happiness!"
After living alone for a week, Zhang Tie gradually developed a habit of talking to himself. As long as there is no one around, Zhang Tie doesn't mind letting his "strange bird clone" come and say a few words to him. Come to adjust your mood and relieve stress. If this act was seen by others, the name of pervert and obscene person on Zhang Tie's head would probably be difficult to wash away in the mouths of those hypocrites. But in the Castle of Black Iron, how could Zhang Tie worry about others? …
