The mark mentioned by Zhang Tianxing should be the strange grimace that guided me to find the iron chain, I have found three at the end of the stone road, I thought that I could see others along the chain, but I didn't expect that the mark of the grimace all the way down was gone.

I was puzzled by this, Zhang Tianxing's message was to ask the latecomers to follow the marks he left on the Hell Tree to find the underworld, but the three marks I found were engraved on the stone wall of the sinkhole, and the grimace marks were very similar to the Rakshasa evil god in the six gods of the black witch, maybe it was also a god in the black witch faith. Judging from Zhang Tianxing's style of leaving a book to guide his juniors, it is unlikely that this person is a person in the dark witch, and even if he wants to make a mark, he should not engrave this kind of mark, so it can almost be concluded that the grimace mark found before was not left by Zhang Tianxing.

The grimace is used to mark the road down, and it is likely that it was made by the group of people who built the stone road project back then, and it happened to collide with the content of Zhang Tianxing's message, which made me misunderstand.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this possibility is the biggest, after all, whether it is Zhang Tianxing or Zhang Lingjin, both of them are surnamed Zhang, and they may have something to do with me, maybe they are still my elders, and I still don't want them to be dark wizards in my heart.

After thinking about it for a while, I found that if I wanted to find the ghost fetus, I still had to go up to the tree, and I couldn't help but feel a little helpless, in my heart, I really didn't want to have an intersection with this weird tree, who knows if this thing will suddenly come to life.

I decided to look again, maybe the fetus was under the roots, and before that, I needed plenty of rest.

Time passed quickly in my cranky thoughts, I thought that my spirit would be better after eating, but I didn't expect that the mental head was only temporary, and I was even more sleepy after eating. Although I knew that it was a very dangerous thing to sleep here, my eyes were closed, and I comforted myself in my heart, saying that I don't sleep, I just squint and rest for a while, rest for a while, rest, rest......

……

I was woken up by a biting cold, and the moment I opened my eyes, I knew that I must have fallen asleep just now, and I was sweating all the time, but fortunately, nothing happened during the time I was asleep.

I breathed a sigh of relief, only then did I realize that there was a biting coldness in my back, and I couldn't help but be startled, and my heart said what was going on, why did this chain look like ice?

I stood up and found that the chain was covered with a thin layer of frost, and the black chain had turned white and was completely frozen.

In my panic, hoarfrost formed on the waxy ground under my feet at a speed visible to the naked eye, spreading rapidly towards me from all around.

I was so shocked that I didn't have time to think about it, so I ran away, but now that the frost was spreading and condensing everywhere, where else could I hide?

Seeing that Shuangjing had reached my feet, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be no frost near in the area shrouded by the Hell Tree. At this point, I couldn't take care of it anymore, gritting my teeth and stepping on the frozen frost and rushing towards the base of the Hell Tree.

As soon as the foot stepped on the frost, a layer of frost suddenly picked up on the upper of the shoe, and the soles of the feet seemed to be sticky. I was horrified in my heart, it was so powerful that if I stopped at this time, it would be completely over, and these frosts would turn me into a statue like solidified cement, so I tried my best to break free, and after running out for more than ten meters, the chill to the bones disappeared at once.

I looked up and found myself in the foliage of the Underworld.

It's amazing! I looked back at the waxy ground around me, which had been completely frozen, and felt a chill in my heart. The temperature in the sinkhole is indeed much colder than outside, but it is not so cold, if I had slowed down half a step just now, I am afraid that it would be covered by frost in an instant, even in the icy polar regions!

I thought of a way to describe the cold weather, spitting into ice, peeing into pillars, and my heart moved, and I spat on the frozen ground, wanting to see how horrible the temperature really was.

As soon as saliva erupted from the area covered by the Hell Tree, it immediately turned into a white lump of ice and nailed to the ground, and I was dumbfounded by this scene, and I didn't dare to think about it anymore.

I sighed, knowing that my retreat had been sealed, the frost covered the chains, even if the womb was really under the tree, without the chains, I still had to make a fuss from the Hell Tree if I wanted to go up, and it seemed that I would inevitably have a close encounter with the Hell Tree anyway.

I'm a little curious about what's going on with the extreme cold outside, because this kind of cold is so exaggerated that it must be more than 100 degrees below zero to turn objects into ice in an instant, right? His eyes swept around and found that everything was as usual, except for the area covered by the Hell Tree, all the other places, including the dozens of Hell Sub Trees and the entire underground forest, were covered with white frost, and the entire underground world suddenly became crystalline.

The white ice crystals can better reflect the blue light emitted by the Hell Tree, giving the originally dark underground forest a hazy outline, which is beautiful, although the specific situation is still not clear, but this situation is shocking enough.

I don't know what the reason for this change is, but the Underground Forest really feels like a fairyland, and if I didn't know that there is an extreme cold outside that can strangle everything, I might have rushed out.

In addition to being shocked, I became even more curious about the mystery of the Hell Tree, so cold, but completely blocked by a tree, unable to invade at all, what kind of power does this tree have?

It was past twelve o'clock, and after looking at the time, I realized that I had slept for nearly five hours. No wonder the spirit is so good, I muttered, and suddenly a question came to mind, twelve o'clock, isn't the time when the frost appeared exactly twelve o'clock, I remembered the curse, the appearance of the frost, will it have anything to do with the curse, it has passed, but I am still outside.

I felt a chill in my heart, but then I thought that I was also outside after twelve o'clock last night, and nothing was wrong!

Wrong......

A thunderclap flashed through my mind, it was almost half past twelve when I entered the sinkhole last night, and twelve o'clock seemed to be the time when I was besieged by those strange trees. Damn, could it be that last night, the trees that came to life were not alive themselves, but because of the curse, all of them came alive after the time had passed?

The chill in my heart is even colder than the chill I felt just now, if the truth is really as I guessed, then this curse is too terrible, this kind of power is not necessarily even a god, I damn it, what kind of thing did I recruit on my body!

Although this was just my conjecture, the mood of searching for the underworld fetus at the moment became extremely urgent, and when I looked at the giant tree again, I no longer felt so terrifying.

In fact, now I'm under the protection of the Hell Tree, and without the Hell Tree, I'd have been frozen into a popsicle, so there's nothing to fear.

It was only after getting close to the roots of the giant tree that I was able to get a glimpse of the Helltree in detail. The trunk at the root is so thick that it takes a dozen adults to hold it, and that's just the trunk. In addition to the trunk, there are also a large number of weeping roots, and you can imagine an oak tree that is more than thirty years old. These weeping roots are as thick as a sea bowl, and the thinnest ones are about the size of an adult's forearm.

The most peculiar thing is that these drooping fibrous roots do not grow from the main trunk of the giant tree, but hang down from the numerous thick branches on the main trunk. The closer to the ground the branches, the shorter the roots fall, but they are the thickest. The higher up the branches, the farther from the ground, the longer the drooping fibrous roots, and the correspondingly less robust than the lower weeping roots.

In this way, almost every branch, and the branch subdivided by each branch, has a hanging root falling, the fibrous roots on the main trunk of the branch must be hanging to the ground, while the fibrous roots on the branches are only naturally falling, and do not touch the ground, from a distance, as if the giant tree in front of you is covered with thick hair, very mysterious.

In this way, there are a large number of fibrous roots near the giant tree, and it is as if you are in a dense rainforest, surrounded by dense trees, with no end in sight, and full of mystery.

This situation reminds me of the situation last night when I was trapped by a strange tree, and the situation at this time is similar to last night, except that although the root forest in front of me is also dense, there is still a considerable gap between them, at least I can move freely between them.

The trunks and fibrous forests occupy an area more than thirty meters in diameter, almost as wide as a sinkhole. Almost half of the fibrous roots were stained with blue waxy discharge, as if suffering from some kind of skin disease, the roots of the trunk were not flat, and the mass of wax stacked formed a small arched hill, like a pile of wax under a burned-out candle holder.

I stepped on the waxy mound to search for the fibrous forest from the outside in, but I didn't find the mark that Zhang Tianxing said, nor did I encounter the kind of grimace mark. I sighed, knowing that the mark would not be under the tree, and since the mark was not below, the Fetal would certainly not be below.

I can only go up! I looked at the huge tree trunk that was close at hand and took a deep breath.

There are no fibrous roots in the area around the trunk of the tree two meters, which is nothing compared to the huge body of the tree, and when you look up, you can only see the tall trunk towering up, like a modern building, and the momentum is so majestic that people feel suffocated.

Standing at the foot of the tree, my vision was limited, I couldn't see anything but the trunk, and the cocoons that made me feel terrified were between the branches and branches, which made me feel a little better. I've made up my mind that if it's on the trunk, I'm not going to touch a single branch.

To be honest, it is not easy to climb such a huge tree, I have never seen a trunk with a diameter of nearly 20 meters wide, although I was very good at climbing trees when I was a child, but now the situation is different, I have nowhere to put my feet! Especially in the bottom section, there is a thick layer of wax solidified on the tree, which wraps the tree, which is slippery and greasy, and cannot be lifted at all.

I changed several places, tried many angles, and each time I went up less than two meters and slid down, I couldn't help but feel angry, and without thinking about it, I directly pulled out a knife to dig up the wax wrapped in the tree.

This is really not an economical method, my knife is very small, it takes at least three minutes to dig a pit to climb, and the only place to rest on this giant tree is the horizontal branches, but the closest branch to the ground is also seven or eight meters away, and I need to dig at least a dozen pits to go up. Wasting time is secondary, the most fatal thing is to stand on the trunk of a tree without support, the physical exertion is very serious, if I hadn't just eaten and slept for more than five hours, otherwise I would have been tired and paralyzed.

The terrible climb continued, and after more than half an hour, I finally sat down on the first branch tremblingly, covered in sweat, and my legs trembled like chaff, and I was almost unsteady on my feet.

Fortunately, this branch is thick enough, standing on it is like standing on the ground, quite wide, not only can you sit, but also lie down to sleep, even if you put a bed, it is no problem.

There were a lot of corpse cocoons on the branches that only skeletons remained, and I was very afraid to approach them, so I found a place to sit down at the junction of the trunk and the branches, and looked up at the top to prepare for the next stage of the climb.

The waxy part of the trunk is still very long, and I estimate that it will be fifteen meters at least, which means that I will need to dig at height for nearly an hour, during which there will be two branches to rest in.

I sighed and kept digging. After resting for more than ten minutes, I continued to dig up, really one step at a time, one step at a time! When I finally managed to dig through this distance, I was so moved that I almost burst into tears.

The rest of the journey was unhindered by wax, and although the climb was just as difficult, the situation was much better, because the Helltree was so large that there were many rough cracks in the bark. On a normal tree, these cracks are just patterns, but on the Hell Tree, these patterns are infinitely magnified and become grooves that allow the foot to step into.

This is equivalent to having a natural ladder, and it is much easier to climb up. The speed is fast, but the corresponding trouble also comes, the tree is so large that I cling to the trunk like an ant, all the way, I can only take care of the surrounding two or three meters at most, and I can't see it further away. Such a small area is too small for the entire trunk, which leads to the fact that although I have climbed a considerable distance, I have never found the mark left by Zhang Tianxing.

Maybe the mark isn't in the area I've climbed, and to find it, you'd have to look through the entire trunk, which is not a fucking human job!
