After speaking, Ji Chen walked straight behind him, stretched out his hand and patted the tree that sealed the back road of everyone, there was a heavy texture on his hand, he looked back at everyone and shook his head and said, "It seems that the first possibility has been ruled out." ”

Ji Chen's heart originally held a kind of hope to shoot, he hoped that he could shoot empty, even if it was a big one. Because one way or another, the first is probably much better than the last two. But that real feeling made his heart suddenly half cold, but in order not to exacerbate everyone's panic, he had to pretend to be calm.

Ji Chen smiled: "Everyone is a highly educated twenty-first century person, I think the third possibility should be directly ignored." ”

But who knew that Zhang Yue, Ma Daha, even jumped out and retorted: "We are indeed people of the 21st century, but I don't know how many years this ghost place has been!"

Sun Jian pushed Ji Chen away, jumped up and kicked hard, but those trees didn't move at all. "It was like kicking on an iron plate. He said.

Ji Chen gritted his teeth and pinched Zhang Yue's shoulder and said, "Since there is no way back, we can only continue to move forward and see." ”

Brother Kun frowned and said, "That's the only way." ”

Ji Chen would look back every time he walked, and he found that the trees behind him had been keeping a distance of about three meters from them.

Ji Chen tried to walk with his back to him, staring at the trees behind him as he walked, but found that these trees did not change or move, but as soon as he looked away and looked again, these trees appeared about three meters behind them. Ji Chen couldn't help but feel a little furious in his heart, could it be that these trees were still refined?

I don't know how long I walked, but the canopies on both sides had completely covered the sky, and it was no exaggeration to say that it was so dark that everyone was almost out of sight.

The people who originally thought about walking to see if they could reach the end with a fluke mentality became more and more panicked, and now they obviously can't go on. There was more and more mucus on their bodies, and the pain was getting stronger and stronger, and Ji Chen even felt that the mucus seemed to be corroding his skin. He had no choice but to come up with an extreme idea of burning the trees with fire.

After hearing this, Zhang Yue shouted: "You are crazy, there are so many trees here, have we all become roast suckling pigs?"

Brother Kun said: "I think it's okay, since these trees may move, then let's burn them over a low fire first to see if these trees will react." ”

Zhang Lan also agreed.

So Ji Chen asked Zhang Yue for a lighter, but Zhang Yue said that he didn't have it.

Ji Chen said angrily: "Okay, when is this time, don't install your old smoking gun." ”

Zhang Yue took a breath and said, "Who loaded, I'll put it on the yacht!"

To Ji Chen's surprise, Zhang Lan said, "I have." ”

Then Ji Chen heard a snap, and a ball of fire came out of the darkness, Zhang Lan walked up to Ji Chen and handed him the lighter, Ji Chen looked at Zhang Lan through the flame of the lighter, and then took the lighter.

When Ji Chen lit the lighter and walked to a tree to roast, Li Xue suddenly whispered from the side: "Since these trees can move, do you say that they will understand what we say?" ”

This sentence couldn't help but make Ji Chen's hairs explode, just when he was stunned by Li Xue's words, a tree trunk suddenly appeared out of nowhere and slapped his hand, the lighter was slapped away at once, Ji Chen shouted: "It's not good! Find a lighter on the ground!" and then he began to grope frantically on the ground.

This shot made Ji Chen's three views completely collapse, this tree can really move! And it can understand human speech! It's just a refinement!

But in the same way, these trees had not moved before, and when they proposed to burn it with a lighter, it couldn't help it, indicating that it was probably really afraid of fire! Ji Chen's heart instantly settled down a little. As long as you find a lighter, there is a way, Ji Chen thought to himself.

In the dark, although everyone was stunned after hearing Ji Chen's words, Ji Chen's nervous and eager tone made everyone dare not slack off, and they all hurriedly lay on the ground looking for lighters. For a while, several people were in a mess and were spinning around on the ground.

Suddenly, Zhang Yue shouted: "I found it!"

Ji Chen immediately replied in a low voice: "Don't speak! These trees understand human speech and can move!"

Suddenly everyone fell silent, and Ji Chen whispered, "Give it to me." ”

After a long fumbling around, Ji Chen took over the lighter in Zhang Yue's hand.

Then Ji Chen slowly took off his coat and asked Zhang Lan and Li Xue softly, "Which of you is wearing stockings?"

Li Xue whispered back, "I didn't." ”

Zhang Lan asked in a low voice, "What do you want stockings for?"

Ji Chen said eagerly: "I'll talk about it later, if you wear it or not, rip off a piece and give it to me first!"

Then Ji Chen heard the sound of the fabric tearing, and after a while, one hand fumbled and handed him a piece of stockings, Ji Chen took the stockings that Zhang Lan gave him and wrapped them around his coat, and then said, "A few of you are holding hands around me." ”

When everyone surrounded Ji Chen, he took a deep breath, then lit the lighter violently, and quickly ignited the jacket wrapped in stockings in his hand.

When the firelight illuminated the surroundings, several branches suddenly stretched out from the surrounding bushes and slapped towards Ji Chen, but fortunately, several other people surrounded him. Sun Jian and Li Xue were pulled up by a few branches, and Brother Kun didn't know where to take out a dagger with a small arm, jumped up violently and cut off the branches on Li Xue's body with a knife.

A few more branches stretched out towards Ji Chen, but Ji Chen's coat had been completely ignited, forming a small ball of fire, he used the ball of fire to block it, those branches immediately retracted, and out of nowhere let out an indescribable scream, he hurriedly took the ball of fire and swung it behind Sun Jian, and the branch that held Sun Jian was immediately released.

With Ji Chen's waving, the fire in his hand ignited several tree canopies, the fire began to expand, and there were screams like babies around him, and these sounds kept drilling into Ji Chen's ears like a 3D surround, which was extremely piercing.

Ji Chen saw that these trees began to twist in the firelight, like a group of extremely ugly-looking devils dancing wildly, looking very hideous and terrifying.

Zhang Lan reminded Ji Chen to quickly shake off the fire ball in his hand, and Ji Chen realized that he was holding a fire ball in his hand, so he frantically shook his hand and used the remaining short sleeves on his body to extinguish the flame on his hand.

Just now, due to the urgency of the situation, Ji Chen's nerves were completely tensed, and he didn't feel the pain in his hands at all, but now when he extinguished the fire on his hands, a sharp pain came from his hands, his hands had been severely burned, and the two pieces of skin on his index and middle fingers were burned off, revealing blood-red flesh, and his palms were also burned to dark red.

Ji Chen tore off a piece of the short sleeve and wrapped it around his hand, and then looked around, Li Xue and Zhang Lan were both shrunk in the middle of the path, Sun Jian and Zhang Yue opened their hands to protect them in the middle, and Brother Kun was holding a dagger and holding a horse to pay attention to the changes around him.

The fire around him was getting bigger and bigger, and when Ji Chen just opened his mouth and wanted to shout to everyone to get up and run forward, the surrounding scene began to change slowly.

The flames slowly began to subside, and after the smoke dissipated, he gradually saw the surroundings clearly, they seemed to be in the woods at this time, and the dense roots under the feet of several people were intertwined like a group of snakes, and after careful observation, Ji Chen found that several of them were actually in a tree!

It is accurate to describe it in a tree with a diameter of at least five or six meters, which has been burned to the point that only its roots remain, and the reason why it is said to be the inside of the tree is because the tree is completely hollow, and they are more like a circular pool of water more than one or two meters high. The tree was very large, but it only had an outer layer of bark, and the bark had been almost burned, so it was hard to imagine how big the tree was before.

Ji Chen didn't know when they entered this tree, maybe they were eaten by this tree in their stomachs at the beginning, and then they kept circling inside, those mucus that made people's skin ache and full of sour smell might be the gastric juice of this tree, it wanted to slowly melt Ji Chen and the others.
