Overlooking from a high place, the forest under his feet has become a deep and light green oil paint, each color block is painted in a soft arc, giving people a comfortable feeling, the wind is vigorous, but not fierce, as if penetrating the body, Lin Xiang simply lay down.

If you come, you can be safe, at least for a while, it's still quite happy.

The changes over the days made her almost forget what it was like to be happy.

The flock of birds gradually flew closer to the steep cliffs.

The upright stone wall is like a wall separating two worlds, and flocks of birds fly up the stone wall.

Chang Feng looked up to find the end of the cliff, and the high place was misty and misty, and the height was immeasurable.

The green vegetation only climbs up to the waist of the rock wall, and further up, there are only a few patches of green dotted on the large bare rocks, and the higher you climb, the fewer plants there are, and the thinner the air.

Finally, they reached the top, and their eyes climbed over the edge of the cliff, and a large jungle appeared in front of them, occupying the entire top of the cliff.

But if you look closely, where is a jungle, all the trunks of the trees have the same branch—to be exact, all the trees are branches of the same trunk.

The main trunk protrudes from countless branches as thick as a bear's waist parallel to the ground, and the branches grow vertically on the branches, and the branches are rooted in the ground to regenerate roots......

Countless branches, together with the leaves that cover the sky and the sun overhead, form a huge tree, like a majestic palace standing on the top of a cliff.

This is the Singlewood Forest, the palace of the King of Birds.

The three of them jumped off the backs of the birds, went around to the other side of the trunk, and found a narrow hole in the tree.

A big magpie with a black head, a white belly and a blue tail circled at the entrance of the cave, and when he saw them, he "chirped" twice and took the lead and flew into the cave.

The three men followed, and the cave was dark, and the passage was downhill, and the further inward it went, the wider it became, and when the passage was wide enough for two people to walk side by side, the torches hanging on the wall were suddenly lit.

As they went on, the magpie led them to a large circular arched hall, where she circled the air and landed into a blue-clad girl, petite in stature, with bright eyes and teeth, and no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.

The girl grinned at them, revealing a pair of deep dimples: "You wait, I'll call the Eagle Queen." After saying that, he went out through another passage.

Lin Xiang looked at the arch hall, the walls and the top were full of tree roots, and a hollow ball lamp made of branches hung down in the center.

At the end of the arch is a large rattan chair, with no decoration.

Lin Xiang stretched out a claw and tried to scrape the wall with her fingernails, which was unbreakable, and she reacted: they were under the giant tree.

"So, the new wolf king is a woman?"

A mellow female voice came from the passage where the magpie disappeared, and out of the voice was a woman in a long black dress.

She has long hair that reaches to her waist, her eyes are sharp, and she is full of a non-angry but powerful bearing. Followed by the little magpie just now.

Lin Xiang put away his claws and smiled back: "Aren't you also a woman?"

"I didn't think it was a little girl who beat Muale. The eagle turned his face to look at Yang Yiqian, "The Rat King is also a woman?"

Yang Yiqian shrugged and said, "I think no one will admit it." ”

The Eagle Queen smiled: "But the rat clan is sealed in your hands." ”

Lin Xiang said: "Correction, it's in my hands." If we're guests, then I don't really like your hospitality. ”

Chang Feng continued: "Why did you bring us here?"

The Eagle Queen glanced at him coldly: "Human, I don't want to talk to you, I know how many lives of the bird clan you have." But today I don't want to settle accounts. ”

Yang Yiqian looked at Chang Feng and smiled, and whispered, "It's finally your turn to be disliked." ”

Chang Feng choked after eating the eagle, and he didn't know what the other party meant, so he stopped talking.

Lin Xiang asked, "Then why did you bring us here?"

The Eagle Queen said: "I also like to go straight." I propose that we cooperate, you have the wolf and rat seals, the heart stone, and I have the bird seal, let's go find the wolf spirit blood together. ”

"No way. Chang Feng still couldn't help but rush to the road.

Lin Xiang secretly pressed the back of his hand and said, "It sounds like we have more treasures than you, and we are a little at a loss to take you to play." ”

The Eagle Queen smiled again: "First of all, there are hundreds of people in the bird clan under my command who can freely transform into human form, and your wolf clan may not exceed ten. Secondly, the snake clan, the tiger clan—"

She glanced at Yang Yiqian and continued: "There are also the rat clans before the great injury of vitality, which have been united, and you should be very clear about this matter." ”

Yang Yiqian hurriedly replied: "No, I really don't know about this, these two have wanted to kill me many times, don't put this plate on my head again." ”

"The union of the races is already a trend, and you will need me. The wolf clan used to be the head of the beast world, and if anyone could unify the beast world again, it was the wolf king. Whether it's to conquer other races, or to deal with our common enemy. ”

The eagle queen's cold gaze shot at Chang Feng again, Chang Feng also looked at her firmly, she smiled instead, turned to Lin Xiang and said, "You don't have to answer me in a hurry, just rest for the night first." I've got food for you, or you'll have a different answer tomorrow. ”

"Ah Lan, take the guests to the guest room to rest. The Eagle Queen nodded to the three of them, turned and walked away, leaving the little magpie behind.

Ah Lan ran ahead and led them forward, bouncing and telling them that the food had been specially bought for them in Jiang Cheng.

Lin Xiang smiled at her: "Your name is 'Ah Lan'?

The girl shook her head: "Mountain Wind Lan." I have been to the human world, I am literate. ”

"What are you going to do?"

Ah Lan stuck out her tongue: "Carry out the mission." ”

Lin Xiang was a little regretful: "Have you ever killed someone?"

Ah Lan put away her smile and nodded a little embarrassedly.

"One life for another, right? Hundreds of birds that can transform into human form are hundreds of human lives. You killed all the villagers in that village. ”

Alan numbled: "We can't help it." Humanity is going to live, and we are going to be alive.

Isn't it said that the weak eat the strong, and natural selection is competitive? If the ethnic group is weak, it will be bullied. Especially for a group like us, who have no skills of our own, we must be together.

If only I were as strong as you, said the Eagle Queen, the wolf clan is the most powerful beast clan. ”

"I envy you. You don't need to be strong, you just need to be able to protect yourself. ”

Ah Lan's unintentional words touched the pain in Lin Xiang's heart, and she felt Chang Feng's gaze penetrate her body from behind. She thought that even the day she turned into a wolf, she would not be able to identify with herself.

Ah Lan said: "But if you are not strong, you can't protect yourself! If we don't kill humans, humans will come and kill us." ”

Lin Xiang said: "If you find the blood of the wolf spirit, you don't have to kill people, and you can lift the seal." ”

Ah Lan was happy again all of a sudden: "Then will you cooperate with the Eagle Queen?"

Lin Xiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Maybe." ”

Lan sent them into the room, closed the door and left.

There is a square table in the room, similar to the style in the village before, and it seems that it was moved from the village.

Ah Lan didn't lie, and there was food bought from Jiang Cheng on the table, a plate of dumplings, a plate of roast mutton, and a large plate of noodles.

Yang Yiqian sat down to eat, and while eating, she looked at the big wooden bed in the corner of the room and said, "Just one bed, how to sleep?"

She kicked Chang Feng and said, "Do you want to sleep with her or with me?"

Chang Feng glanced at her and said, "You can stay and sleep alone." ”

Lin Xiang opened the door to inspect it, closed the door again, and Chang Feng asked, "How is it?"

Lin Xiang said: "There is no one to guard. But it is estimated that there will be an ambush on the road, and if you don't want them to find out, it is better to take another route. ”

Chang Feng said: "The road here is very tortuous, there should be another way out." I'll take a look. ”

Lin Xiang nodded, Chang Feng stood up and was about to go out, Yang Yiqian shouted: "No? Can you explain your tacit understanding? I thought you broke up, and your operation made me very embarrassed." What are we going to do here?"

Lin Xiang rolled his eyes and said, "Do you understand the hidden knife in your smile?" She doesn't want to cooperate, she wants the rat clan seal, the wolf clan seal, and the soul stone. ”

Yang Yiqian said curiously: "Then she just killed us! Why are big fish and big meat waiting for us?"

"That's right, so you still eat other people's big fish and meat, maybe it's poisoned inside, the first one to poison you, cut off your head and take the heart stone. ”

Yang Yiqian spat it out, looking at a table of meat and vegetables, until she saw Lin Xiang and Chang Feng both pursing their lips and smiling, she didn't know that she had been fooled.

She scolded and scolded: "Wolf girl, I sue you, I shouldn't have saved you from Tian Jing!

Lin Xiang also sat down and said: "Eat with confidence, there are many ways to kill us, there is no need to poison, the bird clan is pretentious, and looks down on the snake clan's indiscriminate methods." ”

She looked at Chang Feng and found that he was still looking at her, so she quickly turned her face away. He also looked away and dropped a sentence: "I'll go explore the way first." Then he opened the door and walked out.

Lin Xiang and Yang Yiqian were eating and waiting in the room.

As time passed, Yang Yiqian began to feel that something was wrong: "How long has he been going?"

Lin Xiang was also thinking about this question: "Half an hour." ”

"Isn't it too long?"

Lin Xiang stood up and walked out: "You guard the door, don't open it except us." ”

Yang Yiqian grabbed her and said, "I'll go with you?"

Lin Xiangsai gave her a black cloth bag and said, "You stay, if something is wrong, just find a way to slip away." ”

Yang Yiqian pinched the cloth bag in her hand - this is the seal of the rat clan, Lin Xiang has been holding on to it and refusing to give it to her, but now she took the initiative to throw it in her arms, she couldn't help but be emotional, and said, "You can't escape, can I escape?"

"Let each man sweep up the snow in front of his door. If we had escaped and had not seen you on the edge of the cliff, we would not have looked back for you. ”

After Lin Xiang finished speaking, he went out without looking back.

Since yesterday's conversation on the riverside dressing, she has a great improvement in her opinion of Yang Yiqian, but she is not the kind of mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

Yang Yiqian fidgeted in the room for another quarter of an hour, and finally she was still not at ease, she turned to the door and opened the arched door.

She leaned out of the hallway, which was not straight but winding, and their room was at the top of a bend, and she could only see a small section of the hallway when she looked to the left and right.

On the right is the road they came, Yang Yiqian guessed that Chang Feng and Lin Xiang should have gone out from the other side.

She thought about it for a moment and decided to go back the way she came on the right.

She closed the door with her backhand, and before leaving, she carefully observed the upper and lower rows of dots pecked by the bird's beak on the door leaf made of wooden strips, which she thought was the method used by the birds to mark the room number.

After all, along the way, they passed through quite a few such rooms. She stuck out her fingernails and crossed under the second row of dots before leaving.

She walked down the passage for about five minutes as her breathing began to slowly taut.

Unlike the twists and turns in her previous memory, the corridor she was in now was a sleek arc, and she felt that she was walking in a circular passage.

She rested her hand on the wall, the unvarnished wood polished smooth, but she could still make out the scars in the wood's texture. She soon came across a door, exactly the same one she had left, an arched door, a patchwork of wooden bars.

She closed her eyes and prayed secretly: "It's different, it's different, it's different...... her hand touched the mark on the door, and she opened her eyes to see: two rows of dots on the top two and three bottoms, and a cross in the third row.

She settled her flustered mind and walked in the opposite direction, and after walking for a while, she came across another door.

To her horror, the door was still marked with the same marking.

She even remembered that she hadn't walked a lap at all. She pushed the door, but it didn't move, and she pushed harder, but it didn't move, and finally, she kicked it with all her might.

The door did not open.
