Chapter 45: Overnight Stay

Bai Mingqiu left the island in the middle of the lake, lingered around the Lake of Fog for a long time, and then left this beautiful lake.

As Bai Mingqiu gradually went deeper into the Enchanted Forest, the sky gradually became darker, and the light shone through the messy branches and leaves, reflecting the Enchanted Forest in the evening.

Bai Mingqiu can be regarded as having dealt with the Enchanted Forest many times, after all, Xianglin Hall is open at the entrance of the Enchanted Forest, so he is no stranger to this dim and miasma forest.

However, the entrance Bai Mingqiu chose this time was on the side of the Lake of Mist, which was another entrance to the Enchanted Forest. There are many plants that Bai Mingqiu has never seen here, and after closing his sense of smell and opening his internal breathing, Bai Mingqiu stopped and observed with great interest.

The Enchanted Forest is not suitable for human access, and although it is home to a variety of plants, there are countless small but visible spores floating in the air, which can immediately cause illness if inhaled, making them very dangerous for ordinary people. Huiyin mentioned it, and Aqiu's book also said that even the monsters hate this spor. Therefore, Bai Mingqiu did not dare to be careless, and directly used the method of internal respiration to isolate the possibility of spores entering his body.

Needless to say, the most interesting plants in this forest seem to Bai Mingqiu to be the fungi at the foot of the tree, these mushrooms grow strangely, some with black and white spots, some colorful and colorful, some are as long as sticks, some are as small as a baby's fist, and some look like discs, like hanging bells.

Judging from his experience, most of these mushrooms were inedible, and they had a strong hallucinogenic effect, and even if he Bai Mingqiu didn't keep his mind, he would feel a trace of hallucinations in front of him. Gensokyo Origin says that "the reason why this forest is called the Enchanted Forest is because there are fungi that make people hallucinate in it, and ordinary humans will hallucinate as if they have been enchanted as long as they get close to these fungi", Bai Mingqiu now experienced it immersively.

This place is not very far from Hakurei Shrine, and after passing through this forest, there will be a road that is the famous animal path, and further up the animal path, the high place is Hakurei Shrine. Therefore, there are generally no particularly ferocious yokai here, and the Hakurei shrine maiden is famous among the yokai, and there are few who dare to offend.

Bai Mingqiu didn't know about this, after all, he had only been here for a year, and this Gensokyo was too dangerous for ordinary people, and no one would draw a map, and even if there were, it was only partial. So after entering the Enchanted Forest, Bai Mingqiu refreshed himself and took precautions against emergencies.

This vigilance did not relax until the sky turned completely dark, and Bai Mingqiu saw lights flashing somewhere in front of him.

"Lights in the Enchanted Forest?" Bai Mingqiu muttered to himself and walked forward with a quickened pace.

The depths of the forest, which had always been a little narrow, suddenly opened up, and what appeared in front of Bai Mingqiu was a western-style pavilion, and the lights were shining in front of the western-style pavilion.

The style of this Western-style house is simple, the exterior is not ornate, and perhaps because it is built in the forest, the color is also very dark.

Bai Mingqiu stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Is anyone there, please?"

After waiting for a while, no one answered, Bai Mingqiu was about to knock again, but the door suddenly opened.

Well? What does it taste like?

Bai Mingqiu always felt that the smell that permeated the house was very familiar, but he couldn't say what it was for a while. Now that the door is open, let's just go in and see what is going on.

He made a decision, and walked in the door, but as soon as he withdrew his foot, the door closed automatically.

Odd.

Bai Mingqiu was a little puzzled, so he looked up and down, and when he looked closely, Bai Mingqiu suddenly discovered the mystery - there was a doll in the corner of the door, this doll was only a few inches up and down, petite Lingling, at first glance, he thought whose toy was thrown here by mistake, but Bai Mingqiu stared intently, and sure enough, he saw the magic line on the little doll.

It is clear that the puppet is being manipulated.

Magic Thread... Doll...

Bai Mingqiu immediately thought of the puppeteer who was popular in the world, Miss Alice, who lived in the Enchanted Forest. I still remember the first time I watched her performance, Bai Mingqiu saw her holding a handful of extremely thin magic threads in her hands.

"Tuk-tuk." Bai Mingqiu's thoughts were interrupted, and he heard something knocking on the floor. Looking down slightly, it turned out to be a small puppet carrying a wooden sign, which tapped the ground with the wooden card and made a sound to remind Bai Mingqiu to look over.

There was a delicate line of text on the wooden row - "Follow the puppet and leave tomorrow morning." "Be concise.

Bai Mingqiu smiled, stared at the puppet, and said to himself, "Where are you going to take me?" ”

The puppet naturally can't speak, it didn't hesitate, turned around and picked up the wooden sign and walked in front of Bai Mingqiu, a few corners, and went up the floor, bringing Bai Mingqiu to the door of a room.

Along the way, Bai Mingqiu observed the interior of this western-style pavilion by the way. This Western-style building is reasonable in simplicity but not simple, everywhere is attentive, everywhere is intimate, and even the ground under Bai Mingqiu's feet has a very comfortable mat. Living in such an exquisite western-style house, the owner of this place must be a person who knows how to enjoy it.

However, there is a lot of space to clean up, and it takes a lot of effort to use all the dolls. Bai Mingqiu thought about his small thatched hut, although it didn't occupy a large area, it was better than a small place, at least he didn't need to spend a lot of effort to clean it up.

Each has its own merits, each has its own merits.

Bai Mingqiu stretched out his hand to push open the door, and saw a puppet pouring tea into a cup on the table, and a puppet making a bed on the bed, just spreading the quilt.

Seeing Bai Mingqiu enter the door, the puppets sped up, looking at their swift and smooth movements, if it weren't for the magic threads in his eyes, Bai Mingqiu almost thought that these puppets were alive. He felt that Alice's manipulation of dolls had become a bit superb.

Then he remembered the smell he had smelled in his nose when he first entered the house, and now he thought that it must be a woody scent. Alice is concentrating on making zuò dolls in this foreign restaurant, and it is likely that the wood fragrance is volatilized because of the zuò dolls.

He bent down and touched the puppet's little head, then went into the house and closed the door, threw off his luggage, picked up the pastry on the table, and ate it.

Ps:

In the first chapter of the new year, I wish you all good health in 15 years.

I've been deciding whether to write about Xiao Ai or Xiao Broken Bone first, and after thinking about it for so long, I decided to put Alice first, anyway, to mention it. The little broken bone is definitely going to be written.,I personally like the little broken bone.,But because the plot needs to be moved back a little.。
