While Ji Hao was following him in the Forest of Tranquility, Taisi was sitting on a small earthbag in a daze.
Where he was, there were boundless grasslands in all directions. The long grass was neck deep and green. The wind blew through the long grass and danced like waves. It was extremely magnificent.
There are occasional sparse shrubs and hills with gentle slopes on the grassland. Large rivers wind like ribbons, nourishing the grassland with extremely rich water and soil. There are herds of animals running around everywhere, and countless birds can be seen flying in the sky. This is A fertile land full of life.
After rushing out of the cross-border passage, Taisi could not find Ji Hao and others. The two divine fire snakes that were originally lying on Ji Hao's shoulders were strangely wrapped around his thighs.
Taisi and the two little snakes stared at each other for a while, then he took out a small booklet made of animal skin from his sleeve, opened the first page and recited in a low voice.
"Shao Si said, when you arrive in a strange place, first check to see if the surroundings are safe? Are there any ferocious things that I can't deal with?"
The two divine fire snakes hissed and climbed up Taisi's body with great skill, lying on his shoulders and coiling up comfortably. They looked left and right, curiously looking at the surrounding scenery.
They have all been raised by Ji Hao, and they are also familiar with Tai Si and others. When they come out of the cross-border passage, since Ji Hao is not in front of them, it is logical to follow Tai Si. The two little snakes were very quiet and did not cause trouble to Tai Si.
Taisi held the booklet and looked around for a while, muttering something like 'a ferocious thing that cannot be dealt with'? His mind was so confused that he couldn't figure out what Shao Si meant by a ferocious thing that he couldn't handle.
There was silence for a while, and then the Taisi took out the bone staff from his sleeve, recited a spell in a low voice, and stuck the bone staff hard into the ground. There was a buzzing sound, and the air within a radius of more than ten miles fluctuated strangely, and waves of gray dark light flashed rapidly around.
Wherever the dark light passed, no matter the grass, shrubs, or mushrooms in the grass, as well as the beasts in the grass, and even the birds in the sky, all living creatures were instantly obliterated. Streams of gray air continued to flow towards Taisi's body. The power of death after all things were killed was Taisi's best tonic, and it was quickly absorbed by his body.
With Taisi's body as the center, a blank area with a diameter of more than thirty miles was abruptly imprinted on the grassland.
The vegetation in this circular blank area turned to ashes, everything was extinct, and even the corpses of the birds and beasts turned into ashes.
Taisi blinked his eyes and looked around blankly. Several small beasts were wiped out by his blow. These little things that he could kill easily were obviously not ferocious things.
"There are no ferocious things, so according to Shao Si's explanation, it's very safe here!" Tai Si giggled like "hehehe" and scratched his head hard: "So, the second item is... water source and food?"
"Water source, water source, water source!" Taisi murmured. There was a small river meandering just two or three miles in front of him, but the river section that was more than ten miles long was also lifeless, and the water was covered with a layer of lifelessness. Obscure death. But in Tai Si's view, this is the source of water.
As for food, Taisi had just killed so many creatures. His body was full of death air and he was so full that he was burping.
"I'm not hungry, and I don't need to look for food for the time being. And the bracelet Ji Hao gave me contains so much food and drink." Tai Si raised his wrist and shook it. Ji Hao carefully selected the large-capacity bracelet for him. There are mountains of all kinds of food and other sundries inside, enough for Taisi to eat and drink alone for a hundred years.
"Principle 3: Make sure you are safe. Have food and drink. Don't run around and wait for everyone to come to me?" Tai Si opened the third volume of the booklet and recited the words on it very seriously: " Well, wait until Ji Hao, Shaosi, and Manman come to me."
Putting away the witchcraft staff, Taisi sat down on the small bag of dirt and stared blankly ahead.
What Taisi didn't notice was that when he destroyed many creatures within dozens of miles with one blow, a black thunder cloud appeared above his head. But after he struck, the aura all over his body suddenly became restrained. He was like a void shadow sitting blankly on the mountain. There was no movement, and no witchcraft aura spread out.
The cloud of thunder and calamity hesitated above his head for a long time, and several times locked onto the two small snakes lying on Tai Si's shoulders.
But the two little snakes were motionless, and they seemed to be shielded by some strange energy in Taisi's body. Their breath became extremely subtle, so subtle that it was almost impossible to detect it. The cloud of thunder and calamity hesitated for a quarter of an hour, and finally dispersed in despair.
Time passed, and five days passed in the blink of an eye. The circular clearing created by Tai Si was filled with the air of death. All the birds and animals on the grassland felt the terrible threat posed by Tai Si. Within five days, no birds or animals dared to approach this circle.
"It's so boring~" Taisi, who was sitting on the dirt bag, lay sprawled on the ground. He rolled his eyes and looked at the sky, humming feebly: "Ji Hao, damn fat man, Feng Monkey, what are you doing?" Woolen cloth?"
The climate on the grassland is unpredictable. When Taisi was groaning out of boredom, the sky changed, large rain clouds gathered, and heavy rain roared down. Taisi lying on the ground was soaked in the blink of an eye.
He took out the animal skin book again and turned to the following pages.
"Shao Si said that when it rains, you have to find a place to hide from the rain... A cave is best, but should you be careful about being struck by lightning in a tree cave?"
Taisi stood up and looked around stiffly. There was nothing in all directions, not even a sizable hill. Where could he find a cave? Even tree holes are hard to find. There are small bushes around here, and there are no big trees for Taisi to hide.
"Cave? Tree cave? Are you kidding me?" Taisi was confused and at a loss. Shao Si had always been helping him take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation. Without Shao Si, he was a little confused as to when he should eat and when he should drink water.
'Kalala', streaks of wild thunder mixed with lightning passed across the sky. Taisi looked up at the sky and frowned.
"Then, let's find a mountain first! The feeling of being struck by lightning is really unpleasant." Looking at the terrifying thunder in the sky with a little fear, Taisi's body suddenly became transparent, and while it was becoming transparent, he His body seemed to be flattened, turning into a hazy and transparent shadow.
This was not only a change in him, but also the two little snakes lying on his shoulders had also become insubstantial.
After looking around for a while, the Taisi threw his bone staff into the sky. After the bone staff landed on the ground, he looked at the direction pointed by the head of the staff, and floated forward like a ghost on a dark wind.
