As we got closer and closer to the sturdy old tree, the ground beneath our feet began to soften.

From time to time, the bones of dead people can even be found.

Uncle Nine squinted his eyes and looked at it, and these tiny branches even fell to the ground, looking from a distance like a thin giant stretching out his slender arms.

"It's... This shame tree must have grown for thousands of years to produce so many branches. ”

Uncle Jiu's words made Xiao Baimian a little overwhelmed, he obviously didn't know that there were such strange plants in the ancient tomb, as for the fat man and the dragon boy, he had heard of it somewhat.

The ninth uncle in front of him couldn't help but take a few more steps forward, and finally said coldly.

"But looking at the sand on the ground, this tree of shame must be dead, otherwise we would have entered into the hallucinations it generated."

I looked at these dry branches, thinking that Uncle Nine might be right, and I had the impression that the tree was rooted in the soil and sucked carrion for food.

Although it doesn't need sunlight, it also grows black leaves, and this strange old tree with teeth and claws seems to have withered for many years.

In the dim light, even the branches of the trees were covered with silk nets, revealing a strange aura of death.

Suddenly, the fat man seemed to have noticed something on the branch, and walked completely under the old tree.

Following the fat man's gaze, I also faintly noticed that there seemed to be a strange box tied to the branch, which looked a little nondescript to the withered old tree in front of me.

"Fine, although this tree has withered, it is better to be careful."

I didn't speak, but I thought in my heart that what Uncle Nine said was indeed reasonable, and then stopped the fat man and asked him not to act rashly.

But what I didn't expect was that I didn't stop even shouting a few times, as if he was deaf and dumb.

Uncle Nine and I glanced at each other, and instantly realized that something was wrong with the fat man, but when I wanted to open my mouth and call him to stop.

He had already plucked the strange box from the twig.

The fat man turned his head and waved at us, but he was not only a little confused when he looked at the strange expressions of all of us.

"What are you saying, I can't hear anything."

The fat man couldn't help but mutter to himself, but now what he said was heard clearly by all of us.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the fat man's ears, otherwise how could he not have heard it at all, if there were so many of us shouting together?

A faint wave of anger rose in my heart, thinking to myself when this was all this, why is this kid still joking?

Unexpectedly, when the fat man retrieved the box and wanted to return to the team, he suddenly crashed into the air, leaving blood on his forehead and face in an instant.

"What's going on?"

"Ganzi, godfather, dragon boy..."

"Why can't I hear you?"

The fat man stood up only to find that there seemed to be an invisible wall separating himself from us in front of him, and the scene obviously frightened everyone.

Obviously it was fine just now, why did such a strange thing suddenly happen now.

I looked at the frightened fat man in front of me, and gestured to tell him not to panic first, there must be a solution to all problems.

Maybe we have unconsciously entered the illusion of the arrangement of the ashamed tree, this idea is a little incredible, but it seems to be the only answer in front of us.

Uncle Jiu's eyes widened and he couldn't speak, he found that the fat man and us seemed to be separated by a layer of enchantment, no matter how close we were, we always kept a finger distance from the fat man.

In the end, it was the sharp-eyed little white face who noticed that something was wrong, it turned out that behind the fat man there was a sapling full of black leaves, which was standing quietly in the soil.

Could it be that the barrier in front of me is an illusion, and it is all emanating from this small tree?

I pointed the fat man in the direction and asked him to uproot the little black tree behind him.

He gradually understood my intentions, and grabbed the black tree on the ground with his hand and pulled it hard, pulling out a black and purple shriveled corpse.

He was wearing an old military uniform, with a rusty gun at his waist, and he was easily pulled out of the sand by the fat man.

At this moment, the barrier in front of him disappeared, and it turned out that everything just now was an illusion.

I looked at the fat man and the little white face of Uncle Jiu standing in front of me, and suddenly realized that the person who couldn't help but be curious to pick the branches and put them on the box just now was actually myself.

After seeing this scene, I was really frightened by my own actions.

It seems that I have unknowingly fallen into the path of this little tree just now, and if I hadn't reached out and uprooted him, I might have caused some trouble.

The small tree, which had not yet grown up, grew on top of the dried corpse's head, and seemed to feed on the corpse's nutrients, its tiny rhizomes crawling all over the corpse.

I couldn't help but wonder when I saw this strange corpse in military uniform, which had been turned into a dry corpse, and the shoulder badge on his shoulder had been deliberately removed, as if to fear that someone would find out who he was.

"So, this corpse should be in the same group as the soldiers in black."

The fat man took the lead and looked at the corpse in front of him and couldn't help but speculate, and then used a torch to rip off the clothes on the corpse.

In the dim light, I only saw that the shriveled corpse had a fist-sized hole in its chest, almost hollowing out all the organs in its body.

No wonder this corpse turned into a dried corpse.

In addition to this strange suspicion, it was even found that his palms and other bare skin were covered in bronze rust.

Gently scraped with a knife, it can also scrape down layers of bronze-colored powder, which seems to be the real reason for the death of all the soldiers and officers who disguised their identities here.

I handed the powder to Uncle Nine, only to see him shaking his head, indicating that he had never seen these things.

Even if it is the Yunnan Gu Technique, I have never heard of a person who has been poisoned by Gu and will be covered with patina.

Everyone's eyes gradually moved to the box in my hand, and I saw that this delicate wooden box was a little heavy, and it was covered with dust, as if someone had tied it to the treetops with a rope before.

Suddenly remembered what the little white face with a mole on his face said, could the box in front of him be the Third World Mirror, which happened to be met by us by mistake.

The little white face felt a little incredible, and even wanted to reach out and open the box, but I suddenly stopped it.

"When I go out, I won't pay you and your friends a penny."

He suddenly lowered his head and secretly said such a sentence to me, and I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart, but still didn't let him touch the box.

"Only you and I know that if the box is really filled with the Third World Mirror, then it will definitely cause unimaginable consequences."

I secretly replied to the little white face by taking away the box, and everyone behind me looked at us as if we were deliberately pulling and fighting for the box, a little unclear.

The fat man noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly walked over.
