Chapter 11: A Tree, a Voice

Layer by layer of dreams, one by one the shackles accumulated, making the eyes that wanted to open heavier and heavier.

There was a voice in my heart that kept saying, wake up, wake up, wake up......

The feeling of awakening is far away.

"Look, creek, this tree moves!"

"Hmm...... Trees are meant to move. The girl lying on the grass on the riverbank opened her hazy eyes, as if she had just woken up, and fell into a momentary confusion.

"No, it's different! Look, the tree is coming, right behind you!"

"Tree?" Xiaoxi sat up blankly, turning her head to look at the dense forest behind her.

The lush thorn trees, with their sharp branches, are densely and neatly shrouded in the calm and waveless banks of the small river behind them, as if there is no end. And a scarlet thorn tree, maverickly broke through the neat dividing zone and walked out of the thorn forest.

The lush roots of the tree turned into tentacle-like feet, the branches swayed into waving hands, and the tree culture that meandered and condensed between the trunks made a strange facial feature. At the moment of staring at the creek that turned his head back, he froze his body, trying to hide his distinctive style in the thorn forest again.

"Tree ...... Can you really move?" Xiaoxi rubbed her eyes and looked at the bewitching thorn tree in disbelief.

"Look, I didn't lie to you. ”

"But the tree...... Why is it moving?" the brook shook its head left and right and looked at the neat lawn around it, and the breeze blew through it, setting off waves of grass.

The river is still quiet and waveless, the river bank is still green grass, and the thorn forests on both sides are neat, as if someone has cut it with a knife. There is only forbidden isolation between the thorn tree and the lawn, why does this thorn tree move to break through the isolation zone?

"There's something wrong with this tree, creek, you have to be careful!"

"There's something wrong with the tree...... What about you?" the brook turned, and there was no figure around, who was talking to her?

"I ...... Of course I'm on your side!Brook, what's wrong with you?"

"Who are you?" Brook tilted her head in confusion, "Or, you...... What is it?"

"Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you, have you forgotten who I am when you sleep?"

The voice rang in my ears, as if someone was whispering beside me. Xiaoxi frowned and rubbed her earlobe, still dazed.

In a moment when she lost her mind, the thorn tree that had grown into a fine tree actually moved two steps forward. The distance of the isolation zone is not wide, and you can feel the sharp thorns piercing your eyes.

"Are you me?" the brook frowned and took two steps back, closing the distance from the thorn tree.

"Do you remember?" said a voice that sounded in his head with a hint of surprise.

"No, you're not me. Xiaoxi calmly denied, although her memory was blank and unfamiliar with everything, it didn't mean that she had no judgment, "Are you the tree?"

"I'm you, Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you've been affected by that strange tree? We've gone through so many years together, and you still said that when you have achieved something in your cultivation, you'll refine a body for me, have you forgotten?"

"Refining a body, you parasitize in my body?"

The fingertips still carried the slight coolness of the river breeze, and Xiaoxi's right hand put on his left and right wrists, and gently cut the pulse, the pulse was normal, without any traces of parasitism.

"Parasitic, Xiaoxi, how can you think of me like this, I was made by you, and I exist because of you!" the voice was stimulated by Xiaoxi's guess a little sharp, which made people listen to it for a while.

"And what the hell are you?"

Whether the voice was calm or restless, Xiaoxi was calm, with a detachment from the situation.

"I'm you. You also gave me a name, called Xiaoxi, the tide of tides. You say you are the babbling of the stream, I am the tide surging. ”

"Xiaoshio?"

"Hmm!"

Xiaoxi was a little dazed, the same pronunciation, how could that voice tell which one she was calling?

"Where is this, what's the matter with that tree?"

"Here...... I don't know if it's the tree, but it's the first time I've encountered a tree that can walk. ”

"The Unreachable?"

"The legendary place, I remember that the ancient books you consulted at the time recorded that there is a secret of immortality in the unreachable place!"

"Immortality?"

The figures of a man and a woman seemed to flash in his mind, and there were vaguely some words of immortality. That misty world, is it a memory she has forgotten?

"Creek, go, the tree is going to catch you, go!"

"Why did that tree catch me?"

"I don't know, but I can feel the sinister aura of the tree, as evil as its scarlet cloak. Creek, go, trust me, go, go to the river"

The tree could walk and move, but it always took a step or two forward when she wasn't paying attention, and it obviously had a rather intimidating body, but there was no trace of fear that made her afraid.

The voice in her body was very familiar, and every word seemed to be explaining her doubts, pointing her in the right direction, and she was very familiar with her, but she couldn't help but be wary of suspicion.

A tree that can't speak and has a body, a voice that doesn't have a body that speaks.

Who should she trust?

The Thorn Forest looked familiar, as if she had traveled through similar woods a long, long time ago, but she couldn't remember what she had gone there and what she had encountered.

If this is really the so-called unreachable place, then how did she get there? Immortality, such a seductive four words, she did not feel any attraction.

"What's on the riverside?"

The surrounding scenery is really simple, a river, a forest, a tree, a grass and a person, and because of the simplicity, the information that can be provided to her is pitiful.

The thorn forest is a danger visible to the naked eye, and the river is quiet and silent, and it is not necessarily safe, so far only the grass under your feet is quite normal.

"Xiaoxi, let's go, let's go!"

The thorn tree was getting closer and closer, and the urging sound in his ears became more and more urgent, and his breath seemed to be stained with the bloody breath.

This is a tree of death, the bloody tree that sucked a lot of blood to become what it is today!

Turning her head, she turned, and the moment she was about to run towards the river, she paused.

The water of the river is crystal clear, and the bottom of the river is full of bones!

Breathing in the cold air and retreating, her back against the branches of the thorn tree sticking out, the moment the sharp thorns pierced her body, the pain made her wake up suddenly!

It's just a fantasy!

It's just a fantasy!

Shi Xi didn't expect that this so-called immortal realm was not the final image of this illusion, and when she thought she could rest and adjust it first and then slowly figure it out, the next illusion struck again. Under the superposition of such a heavy illusion, how long can she stay awake?
