Chapter 20: The Heavenly Tree
The scattered team fled into the woods for nearly ten minutes, and the students finally stopped in shock, and Teru Kawada and Jill were also frightened, and watched the rear fearfully, for fear that something would catch up, but it seemed that it was okay, and those things seemed to be able to move only underwater.

"Classmate Mu Feng, classmate Gao Zhi, are you okay?" Seeing Mu Fengye and Gao Zhi following behind, Sinomiya breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that Xia Chuan's death hit Gao Zhi very hard, after all, he was next to him, but he couldn't do anything.
Gao Zhi didn't say a word, kneeling on the ground and desperately picking at the dirt with his fingernails.
"Fortunately, fortunately Gao Zhi ...... just now" Mu Fengye was just about to tell the news that Gao Zhi had obtained the obsidian weapon, but he suddenly grabbed his pants with his mud-stained hand, as if he didn't intend to let himself say it so early, Gao Mu They are also here, they must hide a hand from them, just now everyone was only concerned about running for their lives and vomiting, so no one saw Gao Zhi's obsidian, "Fortunately, Gao Zhi ran fast and was not left behind." ”
Serina seemed to understand something, nodded and agreed: "It was really thrilling just now, I almost died......"
"It's not safe here, it's better to go ahead as soon as possible. Sakuruma looked around cautiously, there was still the smell of wild beasts here, probably more ferocious than the species she had encountered before, and the longer she stayed here, the easier it was to attract them.
"Sakuruma ......" Takashi suddenly stopped her, his voice was low and uncomfortable.
"What for?"
"You figured out the way to swim here!"
Mu Feng's whole body was shocked when he heard this, at this time, he must not let Gao Zhi and Sakura have a conflict, otherwise something bad will definitely be involved, and it will be bad if he is caught by Gao Mu.
"Takashi, calm down, Sakurama didn't know that there would be that kind of thing in the lake. Mu Fengye tried her best to help Sakuruma defend, but she didn't seem to appreciate it.
"No, I know. ”
Gao Zhi's expression was almost crazy, he stood up from the ground with red eyes, and pounced on Sakura, if it wasn't for Mu Fengye blocking in front, with her body, she would definitely be pushed directly to the ground.
"What the hell do you mean to know that you want us to swim in such a dangerous situation?!" several girls screamed and accused, even if they were alive there was nothing but fear, such a person could not be called a living person.
"Let not the living, speak. ”
"You killed Xia Chuan!"
The accusations and insults all fell mercilessly on Sakura's body for a while, her face did not fluctuate, as if she couldn't receive negative feelings from the outside world, even Mu Fengye couldn't help her defend anything, if Sakurama said just now that she didn't know that there was that kind of thing in the lake, it wouldn't have become like this.
"I just don't want to cause a commotion, if I let you know that you have always lived next to the monster lake, drank the water there, and bathed with the water there, I'm afraid you will never dare to approach that lake in your life. Sakurama's words were emotionless, as if she were talking to something soulless.
"Why do you know there's something in the lake?" Takashi asked an even more troublesome question again, he was obviously carried away by anger now, and subconsciously thought that Sakuruma was his enemy, "It can't be the same as what I saw before, right? If we had been here for the same amount of time, you wouldn't have been to so many places!"
"I found out on the first night, but you've been obsessed with finding water, so you don't care about the dangers around you, so it's not strange to die here. "I can't tell if Sakurama's words are true or false, because her whole person is like a cold puppet, and no one can really see through her.
"What are you talking about?!" Gao Zhi, who was furious, writhed frantically from Mu Fengye's obstruction again, and Vera also rushed from behind to assist Mu Fengye in stopping Gao Zhi, "Isn't human life important compared to shortcuts?!!"
"If you're not afraid of death, go back and look at the place where we just stayed, we'll all die there if we leave a few minutes later, and even then, is it okay?"
Sakurama's words made Gao Zhi speechless, compared to the previous abuse, those girls seemed to be secretly happy that they could still come ashore alive from the lake after hearing this, indeed, in their opinion, if they could sacrifice a Xia Chuan in exchange for everyone's safety, it would be too profitable!
"Xia Chuan died for you, maybe she has also discovered the monster in this lake, so she asked to stay behind with you, if you are the only one behind, probably she will be the one who is holding the corpse and crying now." ”
Gao Zhi's nose seemed to be filled with water, and he began to cough violently, and in a trance, he seemed to recall Xia Chuan's roar when he was in the water, and although the voice was indistinct, it seemed to be shouting: Thank you......
"Ahh
Gao Zhi pushed Mu Fengye away and slammed his head into the tree trunk next to him, after feeling the blood on his forehead slowly flowing down, his whole person calmed down a lot, although he still looked extremely trembling on the outside, his breathing had calmed down.
The forest was silent, and Takagi was not in the mood to care about their affairs, and during the time of the quarrel that followed, he had been looking at his surroundings and thinking about something.
"Sakurama, I'm sorry......" Gao Zhi bowed apologetically after calming down, indeed Xia Chuan's death can't be blamed entirely on her, she is also responsible, if only she could have been allowed to swim in front of her at that time, if only she could have found out that there was that kind of monster in this lake earlier, why could she find out like that, but she didn't notice it at all?
"It's time to go, turn your grief and anger into motivation to survive in this world. Sakuruma turned her head and stepped aside silently.
Gao Zhi desperately wanted to hold back his tears, he knew what he had to do in the future, what he had to do in order to protect that smile, to live with that smile, and to live with that person.
"Everyone!" At this moment, Sinomiya's voice suddenly came from behind, her voice had never been so loud, so that everyone's eyes were on her.
After a few seconds, Sinomiya's hands made a prayer gesture and said slowly: "Let's pray for Xia Chuan-san before leaving, if the distance is far away, the soul will feel lonely......"
Shinomiya's words actually touched everyone, and the girls gradually closed their eyes and put their hands on their chests, praying earnestly.
"The living rejoice, and the dead rest in peace. This sentence will probably haunt everyone in the future, from here is the beginning of survival, everyone is prepared accordingly, in order not to die silently like Jessica, in order not to die in pain like Xia Chuan, they must live!
The fifth day was only the beginning of a cycle of fear, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at them in this forest, whether it was a beast or a human, and those reddened and ferocious gazes could not be an obstacle.
Takagi had been walking aimlessly with his team, even he didn't know what to do next, since he wanted to survive in this world, he couldn't keep running like this, he had to find a place suitable for human habitation, and he could get food and water, and a warrior without a stronghold would be homesick in a few days.
The obsidian map seems to be endless, and it is about 40 kilometers from the starting point, which is the distance from Yokohama to Shinjuku, and I don't even realize that I have traveled so far.
"Hey, is that ...... place up ahead" Gao Zhi at the back of the team suddenly shouted loudly, and he frequently looked at the trees around him, as if he could find something in them.
"What's wrong?" Mu Fengye looked at the trees beside him, they didn't change at all from his impression.
"Don't you think you've seen this place somewhere?"
"So," said the girl in front of her, who seemed to have made the same discovery as Takashi, the girl who asked for the departure time by the lake yesterday, and her name seemed to be Kerry Elsa, "I think I saw it when I first came here." ”
"Hey, Takagi, what the hell is this place? We won't keep going around in circles, right?" There seemed to be a discovery in front of him, Mu Fengye hurried over, but was shocked by the scene in front of him.
This place is very similar to the clearing where people were gathered at the beginning, a huge tree standing upright in the middle of the clearing, and its trunk cannot be seen from the outside, because each tree in these trees is almost hundreds of meters away, and there is no outside scenery at all, even if you climb the tree, you can see one forest after another.
"No, it's not the same as the previous open space. Mu Fengye quickly discovered the problem, the previous clearing, when about to enter, there will be a forest similar to the entrance of the passage, but the trees here do not show any signs of sparseness, "This is another place, and it is also shown on the obsidian map." ”
Takagi glanced at his map, it was indeed so, it was far away from the previous clearing, more than forty kilometers in the middle, but why was there a clearing of giant trees in such a place?
"Takagi, there's a road to the second forest over there. Kawada Teru looked up and looked up, there was a slope similar to the first clearing, about seven or eight meters long, but it was covered by vines, those green vines were full of thorns, it was difficult to cut without a sharp weapon, even a knife would not help.
"Jill, let's see if you can climb to the top of this tree, hey, Mu Feng, what about the phone I was robbed of by you before?" Takagi seemed to be planning to let Jill take a picture of the front with his phone, and glanced back at Mu Feng.
Mu Feng vaguely remembered that he smashed his mobile phone hard, how could this kind of thing be said, so he had to swallow his saliva and said, "I don't know where I fell when I ran before......"
"Cut, forget it, use your own. ”
"Impossible. ”
"What?" Takagi looked at Sakuruma, who was slowly walking towards the trunk of the tree.
Sakuruma stroked the trunk of the tree and said slowly, "No one can climb the Heavenly Tree, because their trunk connects to another world, and once you climb it, you will never come back." ”
