Chapter 162 Tieshuling

When all the corpses at the bottom of the Wind Sound Canyon were cleared, there were no bones on the ground, and only yellow fallen leaves and gray wind-formed rocks were left.

Falling leaves are piled up in the canyon, and when the strong wind blows, they fly and throw them into the air.

In the canyon, loneliness is restored.

It took Lin En and the army an afternoon to pass through the long and tortuous front half of the Wind Scream.

The gorge along the way is sometimes surrounded by rolling wind and snowy mountains, and sometimes becomes a hidden gorge that is no longer visible to the sky.

Gradually, the sound of the wind escaped into darkness.

It's not because it's dark, but about to enter the abdomen of the Frost and Snowy Mountains.

"Light the torches."

Lin En ordered that an army of three thousand people winded forward, slowly turning into a fire dragon walking along the ground.

The huge rocks and mountains on both sides block the sunlight, and the people were walking under the shadows and torches, breathing in the air conditioner to create frost.

The ice-covered water dripped from the pile of snow above the head and fell to the ground, forming a frozen small pond, which was then trampled on by horse's hooves.

A few weeds broke out from the cracks of the rocks, and there were still a few pale lichens here, but there were no traces of green grass.

The path was steep and narrow, and it was spiraling upwards. When it reached the middle of the canyon, it began to wind around and towards the mountain. The road here was so narrow that it could only be carried on its own.

The thin monkey was still walking in front with the sentry team. The crossbow did not buckle at the waist, but directly held the palm of his hand in case of accidents.

The guard regiment equipped with Valyrian Steel Martial Arts was divided into two teams to support the front, and the rest were still guarding Lin Neng in the center of the long team.

Lin En didn't know how long it would take to walk to reach the end of the canyon drawn by the Dragon Scale Map. He sat on the war horse, wrapped his body with a thick sheepskin cloak, and pressed his head forward.

It is not possible to camp here. The canyon is too narrow and the formation of the army is too long to look after each other. It is very dangerous to rest in such an environment.

"Sir, that savage Tormond has something to talk to you."

A soldier responsible for guarding the prisoners rushed forward from behind the queue.

Lynn kept walking in the war, thought for a while and said, "Bring him here."

After passing through a narrow canyon corridor, the road ahead began to widen again, with no huge rocks blocking the road, but the darkness remained.

Tormond was escorted by two soldiers and rushed to Lynn's side.

Lynn raised his head and looked up at the road ahead, and it was still curved upwards and could not see the end.

He relaxed and said lightly: "Tormond, you are probably disappointed. The savage army here has now become mummies."

Tormond was still tied up with his hands. He used all his strength to hurry up two steps. Hunger and fatigue made the strong savage man start to breathe heavily.

He said in a rough voice, "This adult, can't move forward any more. Even the savage has never taken the precedent to enter the abdomen of the Frost and Snowy Mountains."

Lynn didn't stop, "Why?"

"There is Tieshu Ridge ahead, which is the only place where living people in Fengsheng Gorge can reach. Inside is the territory of the Old God. People cannot enter, and they can't come back if they enter."

Tieshuling?

Linen pointed to the end of the sight ahead. A high slope five hundred meters away, there was a natural, huge wind-eroded gray arch stone. The huge stone stuck in the half slope of the canyon, like a huge artificial platform.

"Where are you referring to?"

After Linn asked, he felt Tormond nodding hard behind him.

The long journey made Lynn a little tired, and the sky outside was gradually darkening, and there was no longer any extra light falling into the dark canyon.

Tie Shuling? It seems to be a good resting place. Lin En thought about it and turned to a guards attendant beside him and said, "You inform the front army and camp on the platform."

After saying that, Linnler held the reins and turned to look at Tormond, who was covered in yellow-brown curly hair and tendrils behind him.

"You seem to be familiar with it?"

Tormond was stunned and then looked up at Linn, "I'm not familiar. It was a holy place for the former believers of the old gods. The savages who were devout to the old gods often held priestly activities here in ancient times."

Lynn grabbed the point and frowned and said, "Did you say that in ancient times? Was it the age of our ancestors? Then don't the savages who believe in the old god choose to come here to pray?"

Tormond was a little hesitant, but he still replied with an ugly expression: "I'm praying there now, and I won't be blessed, so no one will come."

Leanna held the water bag aside, drank a light mouthful and interrupted, "What does this mean?"

Tormond was silent for a moment and said, "It was not called Iron Tree Ridge before, but was called the Divine Ridge by the old god believers. It is said that there was a huge fish-beam tree on the huge rock. The tree was larger than you have ever seen, and its branches and leaves were lush. It grew in the cracks of the stones, as if it could last forever without the nourishment of the earth."

Leanna blinked and continued to ask, "Does it last forever? What about now?"

"Now...it's deadly silence there. As long as everything passes through that tree, it will wither like a beam."

Such a strange thing made the little bear girl very curious, and she continued to ask: "The tree has withered too?"

"Yes, it's dead."

Lynn was just seeing a thousand-year-old fish-beam tree. It had no branches or leaves, and only had a huge huge trunk that needed nearly twenty people to surround it.

The trunks bent upward, and the two ends of the branch were like a giant embracing the sky with his hands open.

Lin En stood under the old iron tree with a huge, weird and distorted face engraved. He looked around and saw only the pale night and fallen leaves covered with broken snow.

The night is a glorious world of bonfires, and the other side of the night is dark and dark.

A dry beam tree separated the two worlds, and now on the edge of the two worlds, Lynn's army began to camp and bring fire to warm up.

"Sir, the camp has been set up."

The tall Duncan grabbed the hilt of the wide knight's sword around his waist and came to Lynn under the big tree in the center of the platform.

Lynn did not respond immediately, he looked down at his feet seriously.

Hanniu and two guards held torches to illuminate the area around him.

This dead tree once sprouted from the solid rocks, and its pale roots spiraled up from countless cracks and slits.

Without soil nourishment, trees cannot grow up, and they cannot survive for thousands of years. This is common sense.

However, the wind-eroded gray arch stone under his feet was indeed natural. When he looked up from below, he specifically noticed that the bottom of the gray arch stone platform was not connected to the ground.

What's going on? Can trees really grow from stones, and stones can also nourish the growth of trees?

The more Lin En thought about it, the more confused he became. His eyes slowly moved up the trunk along the tree trunk, looking up all the way until his eyes fell on the branches that were straight towards the sky.

Gradually, he became alert that the light of the torch could not illuminate it.

But Lynn could still feel a red eye above him, like the eyes of a dead tree.

Lin En narrowed his eyes and shouted coldly, "Shanniu, hand me your crossbow."

Soon a crossbow was handed to the palm of Lynn's hand.

However, Lin Neng's throat was a little hoarse for some reason. He stared at the dead branches above his head with a cold gaze.

Then, slowly load the hand, aim, and finally pull the trigger.

Whoosh!

As the crossbow arrow shot out.

In the quiet night, a burst of crows crows suddenly came.

In an instant, Lin En, Han Niu and others saw a blood-red light flashing in the sky in their eyes.

The red light passed away in a blink of an eye as the crows howled.
