In fact, climbing a mountain is not tiring.

The vine staircase and the small tree steps grow in just the right place, and these patchwork plants divide the hundred-meter-high gable into small sections, each with a small slope, and everyone climbs to the sky as easily as walking on flat ground.

Cabbage really didn't dare to cheat.

The peak of the gable was already in front of him, and Li Weiji suddenly became excited, what would the picturesque world look like in Gu Hanzhang's mouth?

With infinite longing, he straightened his wrists and looked beyond the gray gables to the interior of the Sacred Grove.

He was disappointed.

There is no blooming of a hundred flowers.

There is no fairy music.

Only the tangled roots and dried bark of the trees, and the black-brown bark and white flesh worms burrowed in and out as if to suck up the last bit of water.

This inconspicuous col is not even willing to give it an extra ray of light from the sun.

Dark, damp, sticky.

In a trance, people go back to the cave where the spirit treasure was buried.

Li Weiji frowned and was silent.

Gu Hanzhang, who had seen the beautiful scenery of the Holy Forest, once again put the muzzle of his gun on the waist of the cabbage.

"I swear I didn't lead the wrong way." Obviously aware that the atmosphere was not right, Bao Xue quickly explained, "You have to find the Pale Tree, this is the fastest path." Do you see the ** above your head, just climb it, follow it up, and you can see the pale tree. ”

Gu Hanzhang said coldly: "You lie." As far as I know, there is only one way to see the Pale Tree, and that is to take the Dandelion Elevator to the heart of the Mother Tree. ”

"Sister Hanzhang, you are right on the right path." Bao Cai's tone changed, "Silvari like me can naturally go there, but you ......" At the end of the point, she hurriedly looked at Jian Bingzhi and returned to a delicate voice and said: "Brother Bing, don't get me wrong, I didn't say that you are a bad person, it's just that your identity makes me a little scared." ”

Jian Bingzhi had nothing to say, but he regretted it extremely in his heart: why did he listen to Li Weiji's nonsense and pretend to be a mercenary?

Gu Hanzhang responded generously: "I don't believe in evil, you said that this is an evil way, I want to take a look." As she spoke, she took two steps forward, but stopped at once, there was no way out of here.

Li Weiji had already discovered this problem, he looked up and down, left and right, this place is not only the roots of the tree is the bark, the roots are as thick as seven or eight people, some are deep in the soil, some are arched high like bridges, it is intertwined, impermeable, and those seemingly dead bark even have the sound of steel when they are beaten.

The round col rises from the ground with tightly intertwined roots of steel, drawing the ground as a dungeon.

A hint of vigilance came to his heart, but the cabbage was still smiling, the premonition of danger did not appear, Li Weiji was a little unsure of the plant's thoughts, he pulled the gold thread to pull the cabbage to his side, and asked, "Where is the road?" ”

The cabbage waved her hand from the bottom to the top and drew an arc, and the tips of her fingers stayed on the top of her head.

After a little thought, he opened the team channel: "This could be a trap. ”

Huang Yuanji asked rhetorically: "Where did you see it?" ”

Li Weiji said: "Do you think this place looks like a cage? And, are we in the slightest danger along the way? ”

Huang Yuanji was a little puzzled: "Isn't it a good thing that there is no danger?" ”

Li Yi smiled: "In reality, peace and joy are the best, but in the game, we crave excitement, and danger is part of the excitement." The game will always arrange all kinds of dangers, and this is normal. ”

Huang Yuanji pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Then what do you say?" ”

"You stay here, I'll go up with Sister Cha, the team channel is turned on in real time, and the two sides have a look at each other." Li Weiji gave a plan.

Jian Bingzhi immediately said: "This is not good, her combat effectiveness is very weak, in case there is really danger, you two can't deal with it." I'm going with you, I'm able to provide group stealth now, insurance. ”

"I'm for it." Huang Yuanji cast a vote.

Li Yi said: "I am against it. "He has always been on the same front as Li Weiji.

2 to 2 draw, everyone turned their eyes to Gu Hanzhang.

Gu Hanzhang glanced at Jian Bingzhi and hesitated. She has a task on her body, whether she is in favor or against, Li Weiji is out of her sight, which is not good.

Bao Xuecai didn't know that a few people were talking in secret, but she noticed that the expressions of these people had changed, and she couldn't help but beat a drum in her heart: Could these people also have the ability to communicate spiritually? Thinking so in her heart, she opened her mouth to break the silence and said: "These roots are the road, they are part of the mother tree, and if you go up along the rhizome, you can quietly reach the pale heart, where the incarnation of the mother tree is. ”

Li Weiji didn't pay attention to Bao Xue's words, he said on the team channel: "That's the case, looking for the Pale Tree is Dora's last words, and I don't want you to get involved in my heart, so I want to keep you here under the pretext that there may be a trap." This is very selfish......" Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Gu Hanzhang said: "You go with her, the four of us are here to guard, and we will abandon you immediately if something happens." ”

Li Weiji pulled the cabbage to climb up the ** and disappeared step by step above the heads of the four people.

It wasn't until he couldn't hear the footsteps of the cabbage at all that Jian Bingzhi was a little unhappy and said, "How can you support this kind of selfish idea." ”

Gu Hanzhang did not answer. When she was hesitating just now, the three big red letters "let him go" suddenly flashed on the retina made a choice for her. She couldn't figure out why [Deep Blue] valued this man so much.

Seeing that his teammates were silent, he retracted his dagger and sat down on the ground in a huff, then took out a thatch from his backpack and stared at it. This thatch has tooth marks on it, like a curved crescent, which is leftover from cabbage. He looked at the tooth marks and saw cabbage wearing an apron preparing breakfast.

Huang Yuanji is a big ghost, so he won't mix with the stupid disputes of adults, so he found a corner to play with the sand he got when he unlocked the illusionist.

Li Yi stood against the wall, taking the other servants in his eyes, and wiped the [ghost blade] over and over again. The blood flowing in his body always forced him to cut, to kill, to fight. However, the silence was terrible, and the white flesh insects gnawed and bit the bark, and the rustling sound was clearly audible.

Wrong!

Li Yi woke up suddenly, and slashed out, and the fat meat worm was immediately divided into two petals, but no juice spurted out.

The rustle is still there.

"Another crazy one." Huang Yuanji knocked down the sand tower, and countless grains of sand were paved with butterflies.

"Quick, get ready to fight, there's something wrong with the tree." Li Yi's eyes widened and he looked at the place where the knife had just been stabbed.

Huang Yuanji drew a circle on the sand butterfly, and the sand flowed with his hand, and in a blink of an eye, it became a yin and yang double fish. He shook his head and said, "Don't be nervous, the tree is fine, at least there is no hostility towards us." What is the special meaning of this pattern, you say? ”

Li Yi was confused, listening to what Huang Yuanji meant, could it be that he had already discovered that something was wrong?

Gu Hanzhang said, "Didn't he tell you?" ”

Say what?

Li Yi was even more confused.

Seeing that the second monk Li Yizhang was confused, Huang Yuanji laughed after eating, and said for a long time: "There is indeed a problem with this tree, it is eating insects." ”

"You already knew?"

"That's right." Gu Hanzhang said, "Didn't he know when he slapped the bark? ”

Belch......

Li Yi said seriously: "Everyone is a carbon-based creature, although there are differences in gene expression, my intelligence should be normal, you must be perverted." ”

"Not really." Gu Hanzhang's nose wrinkled, "It's that you don't pay attention to the details of the game." ”

Li Yi walked a few steps slowly and sat down next to Gu Hanzhang, and said angrily: "What kind of bullshit detail is this, first, it doesn't affect the plot, and second, it doesn't affect the battle, it's useless." ”

"You can't say that, the details don't have to be practical, and it's good to use them to enhance the realism of the world." Gu Hanzhang moved his butt away slightly, and sighed: "What's more, how do you know that it doesn't affect the two points you mentioned?" ”

Li Yi said in a deep voice, he combined the information he got with some game design ideas that Li Weiji had talked about, and the overall idea slowly surfaced in his brain.

Lao Ji often said that good game scene design is often full of hints, and this small col is the first collision between everyone and the land of the sacred forest, and its hints must be the core setting of the game.

In this scene, there are iron-hard bark, bugs, and rustling sounds, and their presence has only one purpose, leading the player to notice the abnormality.

The flesh of the insects naturally gnawed at the steely bark of the tree, but the rustling sound was real, and the only possibility was that the tree was eating the insects.

It was with this in mind that he slashed the worm just now, and the facts proved that he was right.

Other words:

The first layer implies that the Land of the Sacred Grove has a defense that is not inferior to steel.

The second layer implies that the Land of the Sacred Forest has the attack power to drain enemies.

The third layer implies that the land of the Sacred Forest is alive.

The fourth layer implies that the bark of the roots and whiskers is part of the Pale Tree, so ......

Li Yi woke up and said, "The Pale Tree has long known that we are coming. ”

"Hmm. That's why I said it wasn't hostile to us, so I didn't like it when Li Weiji used traps to trick us. The yellow child raised his hand, and the butterfly that was originally laid on the place floated slightly and instantly collapsed into a cloud of loose sand, and he frowned slightly, as if he was unwilling after the failure of the experiment.

Li Yi said: "I don't know what the situation is with Lao Ji." ”

Huang Yuanji smiled: "You just have to ask him on the team channel." ”

When Li Yi heard this, he raised his hand and pressed the button in his ear, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Weiji shouting: "The nightmare is coming, prepare to fight." ”
