Chapter 15: It's Poisonous Inside

Xiao Qi recalled the position where Luo Han and Sun Weixin were standing before, walked over, and saw a pile of messy footprints on the ground. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"It's a cat demon... This is Luo Han... It's a minotaur..."The more Xiao Qi looked at it, the more confused he became.

"They were captured and eaten by monsters? No, why didn't I blame the physics... And there are no signs of a fight. ā€

A piece of paper lay quietly between the footprints, Xiao Qi picked it up, and recognized it as a page from the Monster Book. He looked along a line of footprints again, and found that there were still pieces of paper on the illustrated book scattered on the ground.

"Okay..."Xiao Qi tightened the crack wind in his hand. It means that it is a mark left on me. Let's take a look. ā€

Sun rubbed his heart and woke up, only to feel that every bone in his body was sore. She barely stood up from the rotting leaves, moved a few times, and was relieved to find that there were no fractures. The giant tree directly knocked her away, breaking branches and leaves all the way and flying I don't know how far, until it hit an ancient tree, she didn't stop, fell to the ground and fainted. If it was a normal situation, she would be able to block it head-on with that level of strength. But I really didn't react, and I ate it solidly.

"Cut, it's not enough to exercise!" Sun was very unwilling in his heart.

The ink suit glows faintly. If it weren't for its protection, the female martial artist would have really broken a few bones. Sun rubbed the dust off the fallen leaves on the light armor lovingly, and walked towards the place where the three of them were ambushed.

"I don't know how long it has been, but they didn't come to me. Sure enough, Luo Han also had an accident..."Sun Mo thought of the danger of his companions and quickened his pace.

Xiao Qi followed the footprints for a while and stopped. In front of him was a dense silent forest of the same kind of trees, bearing round black and yellow fruits, and so many fallen leaves piled up under the trees, that even the footprints of the bull's head were difficult to distinguish. And the pages of the book that Luo Han threw all the way have disappeared here, and it seems that the illustrated book has been torn up.

Although towering trees abound in the forest, for the sake of sufficient allocation of resources such as sunlight and water, few trees grow very concentrated, and this dense and quiet somewhat strange forest is very dangerous in Xiao Qi's eyes.

But what gave him a headache was that he didn't know what to do next. It was nearly evening, and the light in the forest had dimmed almost perceptibly. In this situation, he still has to pursue, and Xiao Qi doesn't have the ability even if he wants to.

After thinking about it, Xiao Qi decided to rest for the night. There was no trace of a fight along the way, and Luo Han still had the kung fu to tear the book, although he couldn't figure out what was going on, but there should be no danger.

Xiao Qi climbed up to the nearest tree. This tree is the one at the very edge of the strange jungle, and Xiao Qi has time to run away if something happens.

Spending the night in the Grand Forest is definitely not a wise choice to make a fire. Not only is it likely to cause a fire, but for those monsters that are active at night, the small flames raised by humans are simply a provocation from food. So the adventurers either climbed into a tree or dug a pit to bury themselves. As for the tents... No one wanted to spend the night in a tent since a few adventurers had woken up to find their tents easily blown off, and the brass bells of several minotaurs were staring at them.

"Grunt," Xiao Qi lay on a thick branch, his stomach rattling.

"Uhh

The dry food is all on Luo Han. The three were attacked at noon and had not yet had time to eat. After walking for so long, my stomach was already empty.

Some of the branches swayed in the wind, and the black-and-yellow fruits on them dangled in front of Xiao Qi's eyes.

"Let's eat one... Maybe it's not poisonous if it's not brightly colored?" Xiao Qi hesitated. Finally hunger overcame reason, and he reached out to pluck a fruit, which felt heavy and somewhat dry, and after weighing it a few times, he found that it seemed to be solid, and there was no such thing as a shell.

Xiao Qi wiped it slightly and took a bite.

"Hmm... How does it smell meaty. "After chewing for a long time, the flesh is quite chewy. However, after Xiao Qi swallowed it, there was only a taste of meat in his mouth, and there was no fragrance or bitterness that the fruit should have.

As night fell, the Gran Forest was almost completely shrouded in darkness. Occasionally, birds flutter their wings and land on the trees, but they are all very far away from the dense forest where Xiao Qi is located, as if there is an invisible boundary dividing the space.

Xiao Qi finished eating the fruit, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, so he wanted to leave here and change the tree to rest, but something happened suddenly.

A little bit of dark green ghost fire lit up in the distance, and it flickered and quickly moved towards Xiao Qi's side. Xiao Qi was about to jump down, but suddenly found that his whole body was paralyzed and weak, his feet slipped, and the whole person fell straight down.

"Whew!" The fallen leaves on the ground were stirred by the agitated air current, and they were scattered in the air melodiously It was beautiful to look at, but it was a pity that Xiao Qi was lying in a daze and lying in the pit he fell out of without admiring it.

Soon the ghost fire stopped beside Xiao Qi. Through the faint light, Xiao Qi saw dark yellow hair and long, salivating fangs.

"Jie Ji ......"

After Sun Fangxin walked back, he saw the footprints on the ground and also found the pit that Xiao Qi fell into. There was no one in the pit, and it seemed that Xiao Qi had chased after the footprints, so she also followed the traces. But after all, the speed of the injury is not fast, and there is still some distance from the strange forest at this time.

"Hmm... This cat demon is very cunning... This kind of tree is disgusting, isn't it? Why is there such a strange thing?" Sun was resting against the tree, the soft glow of the ink wind light armor allowing her to read the words on the monster book.

Xiao Qi didn't put away the illustrated paper that Luo Han threw all the way, but Sun Mo picked it up carefully, it would be fine, just take a look at it. When I saw a kind of tree on it, I felt a chill.

Cat Demon Tree: A tree that has a symbiotic relationship with a cat demon that seems to have a high level of intelligence. The cat demon densely planted saplings, grew red fruits and was picked by the cat demon, and then the cat demon disguised his feces with paralyzing toxins to lure past adventurers to pick and eat, and the poisoned person was eaten by the cat demon while he could not move, and the remaining bones were buried as nourishment for the cat demon tree.

Although the cat demon tree itself is not harmful, because of its strange relationship with the cat demon, it is recorded in the illustrated book as something that adventurers have to be wary of.

Obviously, the strange jungle that Xiao Qi encountered was the Cat Demon Tree. If Xiao Qi could pay more attention to the monster book, he would not have eaten the feces of the cat demon by mistake, let alone been poisoned by feces...
