Chapter 158: Ghost Crying Forest
Looking at the woods that had come to life because of the sudden death of two trees, Mu Tong nervously pulled out the sword with the talisman written on it in blood, and watched carefully against the strange trees that were constantly shaking and making a "whirring" sound.
"Young Master, what's going on?"
Mo Qing, who had already fastened his belt, took out his dagger and stood next to Mu Tong, looking at these moving trees in amazement.
"Human-faced tree, ghost crying forest!"
"Hurry up! Rush to the top of the mountain!"
Mu Tong, who reacted, felt that this ghost thing was a bit similar to what was recorded in the codex he was reading, and hurriedly beckoned Mo Qing to rush towards the top of the mountain with Mu Qiu.
[Damn, the things on that codex shouldn't all be true!Isn't this world just the world of sects and mysterious beasts?It turns out that there are really ghosts and monsters!What is the name of the old man who wrote the codex?Don't write down to me how this thing is broken!]
Mu Tong was secretly anxious in his heart, recalling that this codex called "Xunyang Travels", which was a codex of a Taoist priest named Xunyang, was one of the ancestral books of the Mu family, and it was in the style of bamboo slips, so Mu Tong thought that it was written by the ancients to fool the people, but he didn't want the things recorded in it to be true!
The three of them hurriedly rushed up the mountain, and now they couldn't care about maintaining their physical strength anymore, Mo Qing directly copied one with one hand, and rushed towards the mountain with his uncle and nephew, the top of the mountain was invisible, and they only hoped to rush out of this ghost forest.
As for why he didn't rush down the hill, because all the trees his mother passed by all morning!
Mu Tong was carried by Mo Qing, and his heart began to constantly recall the record of the human-faced tree.
The Human-Faced Tree is a tree that grows on a corpse and feeds on flesh and blood. Sleep during the day and be active at night. Can drive branches to wrap around enemies, and can also drive roots to pierce prey.
Young trees instinctively draw flesh and blood, and when they develop facial features, they will use traps to lure their prey to take the bait and hunt the prey. When they have enough food, they will use the corpses of their prey to raise their companions, and when they reach a certain size, they will be called the Devil's Crying Forest.
The human-faced tree turned into a ghost crying forest, with gusting winds and ghosts, and it was easy to breed ghosts. But during the day, the Devil Crying Forest still adheres to the habit of a human-faced tree, and will fall into a deep sleep, just like an ordinary forest. If any creature resides in the forest, when the night comes, the Devil Weeps Forest awakens, and all the living creatures that reside in it will be torn apart by them and turned into nourishment.
Therefore, accidentally woke up the Ghost Crying Forest, Mu Tong only hoped that only a small part of the human-faced trees would be awakened, so that they would still have a way to live, after all, Mo Qing's speed was not slow, and the roots of those human-faced trees could not catch up. But if the Devil Cry Forest survives the whole thing, unless they run out of the Ghost Cry Forest, the three of them will be more than lucky!
Mu Tong couldn't imagine how there could be a Ghost Crying Forest here. There are still living creatures at the foot of the mountain, which means that the Devil Cry Forest should not be large, otherwise there can be no living creatures.
"Be careful!"
Just as Mu Tong was thinking about what to do, a sharp tree root broke through the ground behind him and pierced Mo Qing's back.
Mu Tong was so frightened that he couldn't make a move to resist, so he could only scream.
When Mo Qing heard the warning, the Xuan Force under his feet exploded, his speed increased by three percent, and he rushed forward directly, avoiding this fatal blow.
"Run! They're alive! Run up, don't run left and right, I don't think this forest will be too big, otherwise there won't be so many living creatures in the morning!"
Listening to Mu Tong's reminder, Mo Qing buried his head and ran wildly. All his energy now needs to be on the road. Beware of attacks from behind you, as well as dodging obstacles ahead.
"Damn!
Carrying the two of them, they stepped on a branch that swept over, and Mo Qing stepped on it fiercely, rising directly from the sky, stepping on the trunk of the tree and continuing to move forward.
"Bang! bang!"
The branches and roots of the trees that were constantly being wasted slapped on the trunk of the tree, directly shattering the human-faced tree that Mo Qing used to step on.
"I'm going to it!"
"Little Qiu'er, can you still pee?"
"Uncle, what are you and me!"
"Didn't I think you're scared to pee again!"
"You're scared of pee! This thing isn't as scary as it was last night. ”
Well, indeed, although he was attacked, Xiao Mu Qiu, who was moving at high speed, didn't see the appearance of the human face tree at all, where did he feel terrible.
Alas, you have to look at yourself at the critical moment. Mu Tong raised his leg with difficulty, reached out and fished out the bamboo tube tied to his foot, which was his survival last night, it was not enough to deal with the entire Ghost Cry Forest, but it should be enough to deal with the pursuit.
Mu Tong held his breath violently, pulled out the stopper, and was still accidentally splashed a lot on his hands.
"Xiao Qingzi, can't you be steady! It's all splashed on my hands!"
Mo Qing was speechless and smelled the smell in the air, reminding Mu Tong.
"Young master, if you don't throw it out, I guess you'll be all over in a while, because I'm ready to jump!"
Being reminded by Mo Qing, Mu Tong, who didn't want to give himself a topping, directly spilled the bamboo tube in his hand, and threw the bamboo tube out when he was done.
Don't look at the small amount of goods in a bamboo tube, but it swayed on those pursuing branches, and immediately made the other party melt, and shrank back in smoke. For a moment, the pressure plummeted.
Seeing that the effect was good, Mu Tong admired his foresight. Secretly note in my heart, the boy urine Ke human face tree!
This is not recorded in the Xunyang Codex. It seems that Xunyang Lao Dao was crushed by his strength back then, hum, or Xunyang Lao Dao is not a boy at all, and he is still a cultivator!
Mu Tong complained about Xunyang Lao Dao, but he didn't think that he had misunderstood Xunyang Dao.
The so-called boy does not mean that the old director is a child.
Rather, it generally refers to a boy who has not lost his innate qi and is no more than 16 years old.
Of course, there are also some seventeen or eighteen-year-old people who have ingested innate spiritual objects and whose bodies have not been polluted by mundane qi are still children. This is because the innate qi will be covered by popularity and lost, and this time is exactly equivalent to the sixteen years of human beings.
And the young man who broke his body early was because he leaked this innate qi and was polluted by the woman's innate obscure qi, so he didn't look at his age, and he didn't break his body.
And Xunyang Dao people have cultivated all their lives, but they are over 100 years old when they encounter the human face tree, how do they know that the boy's urine can overcome it. In addition, the people are already strong, and the little human-faced tree ghost crying forest people will be destroyed with one move, why take off your pants and fart, and try to see if the child's urine can restrain the human-faced tree?
"Young master, pay attention. Ready to get out of the forest!"
Mo Qing shouted, sped up and rushed forward.
I saw Mo Qing leap violently, dodging the last attack, the three of them were bright, the warm sunlight sprinkled on the three of them, a small jungle fell in front of the three of them, and there was a small meadow, the birds on the ground were fragrant, and several hares were frightened by the appearance of the three of them, and fled in all directions in panic.
"Plop!"
The three of them were soft under their feet, turned into rolling gourds directly on the grass, and lay on the lawn.
"Whew, whew~ finally escaped. ”
Mo Qing turned around with palpitations and looked at the calm forest more than ten feet away behind him, no one would have thought that they were actually devouring ghosts!
The bursts of "woo woo" in the forest just now were really like ghost crying, which made people panic.
Fortunately, the three of them were tired and didn't listen, otherwise they would have been trapped in the forest and become prey.
The three of them lay on the ground for a while, and then they got up and walked towards the low forest in front of them, near the top of the hill.
Take advantage of the fact that it is not dark, find a place to rest early, after all, the three of them are only halfway up the mountain now, and it is estimated that there is still half a day's journey from the top of the mountain.
Anyway, they didn't dare to spend the night on this lawn, dozens of meters behind them was the Ghost Cry Forest, God knows if those ghosts and ghosts hidden under their trees would come out when the Ghost Cry Forest fully woke up at night.
They didn't dare to stay at this distance, so they should go to the front and see if they could find a cave or something. After all, you can see a mountain wall in front of you.
So, the three of them supported each other and walked forward step by step.
