Chapter 103: The Forest

After a while, the sound of breaking wind stopped instantly.

I slowly opened my eyes, and found that the ice cube Ling Na had reached the other side of the mountain.

I lay on his back, looked around, and found that everyone was looking at me with a strange gaze, and the kid of Wang Quan was even more smiling, which directly made me a big red face, and just when I was at a loss, a cold voice sounded in my ears: "Come down." ”

"Uh...... Ahh Looking at my embarrassment, Wang Quan's kid couldn't help but smile obscenely: "Tut-tut, I said Luo and comrade, you kid has learned badly......"

"Get out!" I looked at Wang Quan's kid's ambiguous expression, his face became even hotter, and he kicked it directly with a flying foot. Wang Quan's boy was able to hide quickly, and laughed with a bad face, and just as he was about to say something, a pleasant female voice sounded: "Okay, don't make trouble! You are not here for tourism." ”

Hearing this, Wang Quan and I immediately stopped moving, and subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from-a tall figure caught my eye: it was a woman wearing a navy blue cloth practice uniform, she was about the same height as Chen Ge, she should also be in her early twenties, she looked a little thin, with a high ponytail, and the tips of her eyes were slightly raised, looking like a high-minded master.

The two of us looked her up and down, and she looked at our somewhat unscrupulous gazes, and a trace of shame rose slightly on her face: "What do you see? Am I not right?" The two of us were stunned by this arrogant girl's question, and thought about her before: This should be the Wang family who is responsible for receiving us, right? Immediately, we both shook our heads like rattles, and our faces were full of flattering smiles, for fear of offending this master, and Wang Quan was even more dog-legged, and said while laughing: " Oops, yes, yes, you're right. It's all the two of us wearing leather jackets on dog days - if you don't know the current affairs, you don't remember the villain, hahaha. I secretly scolded in my heart that this kid's kung fu has grown again, but on the surface he is still very cooperative and can't help nodding. There was still a smirk on his face.

After listening to Wang Quan's sycophant, and looking at our lackeys, the corners of this girl's mouth rose slightly, shook her head helplessly, and then looked away from me and Wang Quan. said loudly to everyone: "Brothers and sisters, hello, let me introduce myself first, my name is Wang Xiang, Xiang of Xiaoxiang in September, I am the person responsible for receiving you to the ancestral hall, you can call me by my name," Wang Xiang paused and continued: "Now that everyone is here, then follow me." Don't be left behind, the road in this mountain is very difficult, everyone should be careful. ”

This Wang Xiang also seems to be a resolute woman, and after saying something, she turned around directly and took the lead in walking into the forest under the mountain. Seeing that Wang Xiang had already led the way, our group did not delay any longer, followed Wang Xiang, and walked all the way down the mountain. As I walked, I watched left and right - the mountain was sloping downward. Far away, there is a depression with dense trees, and as far as the eye can see, there is a sea of forests. I secretly speculated: that should be the col where the Wang clan ancestral hall is located. on the opposite side of the depression. There is also a mountain peak that is not short, behind it is the peak we drove to, here the mountains stretch, the valley and the mountain stream are even more, if you don't know the road, it is really difficult to easily find the location of the Wang ancestral hall.

We kept going down the hill. The vegetation on the mountain is quite dense, and the trails between the mountains are very narrow, so it was very uncomfortable for us to walk. After walking for about an hour, I noticed that the vegetation around us had changed—the vegetation on the mountain was dense, but the trees were not very tall, and the grass was only up to the edge of the shoes, and the only high points were the old bracken and dandelions. However, when we walked here, the trees around us suddenly became much taller, and the vegetation under our feet could not reach the surface of our feet, and even a few weeds that I could not name could reach our knees.

I looked at the changes in the surrounding vegetation in amazement, obviously the royal power they also found the clues, everyone was surprised to observe the surrounding vegetation, the deeper they went, the vegetation became taller and denser, looking at the towering and stout trees around me, I had a feeling of being in the primeval forest, I and Wang Quan Bing Fang Ling were closely following Wang Xiang, walking in front of the team, at this time, the back of the team did not know who exclaimed: "My mother, this, this is bracken?

Hearing this exclamation, we all stopped and looked behind us—and we saw a bracken, almost a man tall, growing next to a fallen tree. I stared at the "giant bracken" with wide eyes, and couldn't stop roaring in my heart: "! Lao Tzu shouldn't have crossed over? Thinking about it, I still looked up at the sky tremblingly, for fear that some unknown pterosaurs would suddenly appear like in an American blockbuster.

Just when my mind was opened, Wang Xiang, who was walking at the forefront, stopped, turned around, and said with a very disapproving face: "What is this, there are bigger ones ahead! Let's go, we have to get to the station before dark, this forest looks calm now, but it is not like that at night." ”

With that, he turned again and walked into the depths of the woods. The deeper you go into the forest, the more humid and muggy the air becomes, as if you have entered a tropical rainforest. And as Wang Xiang said, the more we go inside, the more incredible we feel - the trees we see along the way are basically big trees that need to be surrounded by several people, covered with moss, and under the trees are all kinds of mushrooms the size of fists that I can't name, and giant bracken more than one person tall is even more common, and the soil under our feet feels much softer.

Looking at this sudden change in such a powerful forest environment, I felt a kind of uneasiness in my heart, turned my head to look at Wang Quan, and found that this kid was also looking at me with a look of surprise, he came to my side, and whispered: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that there is something strange ...... here."

"Nonsense, where else have you seen such a tall bracken besides here?" I scanned the tall and bizarre vegetation around me and cursed in a low voice, "I'm so fucking scared that these things have become sperm now, and don't you notice that the sounds of insects and birds in this forest are very rare? Do you think these big guys have eaten all the living creatures? Can we also be eaten by them and there are no bones left?......

"Bah, can't you fucking think of something auspicious?" Wang Quan rolled his eyes, and then said in a low voice: "There must be demons at the extreme, it's too strange here, let's be careful, fortunately, my Lao Tzu prepared some guys for me in advance, otherwise I really don't know the bottom of my heart in this ghost place." ”

Just as I was talking to Wang Quan, Bing Fang Ling suddenly stopped, staring at a tall and thick mistletoe tree beside the path. Wang Quan and I were stunned when we looked at his performance, and at this time, Bing Cuo Ling had already walked quickly to the side of the mistle tree, his slender fingers caressing the trunk of the mistletoe tree, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

Looking at his appearance, I knew that there must be something terrible to discover, otherwise this "poker face" that has not changed for thousands of years will not be wrinkled easily. Wang Quan and I thought the same thing, and we both ran to the mistletoe tree that the ice cube was staring at, and looked carefully at the trunk where his finger touched—and saw circles of dark purple lines arranged regularly around the brown trunk, each of which was as small as an annual ring, and if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't have been able to spot these strange lines.

Looking at these strange ring-shaped stripes, Wang Quan and I looked at each other: what is this? Wang Quan looked at it and muttered quietly: "Why does this tree still wear autumn pants?......

I gave him a blank look, but I didn't have the heart to squeeze him, I looked at the circles with great curiosity, and thought to myself: What the hell is this? If it is an annual ring, how can it grow on the trunk of a tree, is it possible that this tree wants to show us how long it has lived...... As I thought about it, I looked at the ice cube standing next to us—and saw that he had put down his hand on the trunk of the tree, and was looking at the strange lines with a solemn face, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
