Chapter 106: A Strange Village in the Forest
Are we going in the wrong direction? Ling Wei said uncertainly in the jeep.
Half an hour ago, they came out of the space, and the wind, rain, thunder and lightning were gone, replaced by a thick, thick white mist.
She drove for half an hour and didn't get out of the fog.
"Master, we've been driving in a line and I'm pretty sure we didn't deviate and didn't go around in circles in the fog." Tuanzi said seriously.
"That's weird......" Ling Wei wondered.
It stands to reason that after they walked for so long, they should have encountered a few wandering zombies, but in the white mist that could hide their figures, they didn't encounter a single one. It's impossible for even zombies to get lost......
"Huh? The white fog faded......" Danko said, staring out the car window.
"Seems like yes, I'm speeding up and rushing forward." Ling Wei stepped on the accelerator, and the jeep rushed out of the white fog with a "whoosh". At the moment of rushing out, the rear of the car also brought out a string of pale white mist that was reluctant to give up.
"Wow woo woo ......" Tuanzi opened the dog's mouth, twisted the dog's head half a circle to the sky, and screamed out of the car window.
"Master, what a tall tree......"
Indeed, the trunks of the trees here are thick and leafy, and they cover the sky in dense turns. Then there are rattans everywhere that twist and turn, which looks more like the deep mountains and old forests.
"Even the weeds grow so tall." Ling Wei said as she looked at a cluster of unknown grass beside the tree.
The grass was more than three meters tall, and if you didn't look closely at the rhizomes without a trunk, you would think it was a new tree species that you had never seen before.
Tuanzi pulled down the window and just wanted to pull a handful of blades of grass, but his nose sneezed coldly.
With that, it lost interest and rolled the windows back on. It's just that the remaining air that drifted into the car just now made it sneeze two more times in succession.
"Master, there's an inexplicable smell here that makes my nose itch." Tuanzi twitched his black little nose and said aggrievedly.
Ling Wei shrugged her nose and inhaled gently, saying, "It's like the smell of earth...... It may have just rained and it was too humid, and there was no daylight here, so the smell of fallen leaves rotting and fermenting in the mud could not be released. ”
After speaking, she patted Tuanzi's head, "You have a smart nose, and if you are unacceptable, you will enter the space." ”
Tuanzi was a little hesitant, it didn't want to go into the space to play with the fool and turn over. "I'll open the window again and see if I still can't sneeze......"
The window rolled down, the smell wafted in, its nose was sore, and it closed the window before it sneezed.
"Ah......h Master, I sneeze...... Or into the ...... Sneezing ...... Space for it! Ahh ”
Tuanzi's tears were about to come out, and his eyes were misty as he looked at Ling Wei.
Ling Wei laughed for a while, "Well, you can't drive in front of you, let's enter the space." ”
Stepping on the soft fallen leaves, Ling Wei waved her hand and sent the dumplings and the jeep into the space.
Looking around, there were almost no different trees, and the heavy branches above his head were black and sinking, and Ling Wei, who was standing in a small space, felt a little difficult to breathe.
It's really like a deep mountain and an old forest, there is no road......
Choosing a random direction, Ling Wei began to walk on the rotting and damp leaves.
Splitting an arm-thick branch, Ling Wei inserted the ice blade into a rattan coiled on the root of the old tree, and rested against the tree.
She walked for about half an hour...... Still haven't gotten out of this dense forest that suddenly appeared.
After finding that she couldn't walk to the end, she deliberately ran back to the position of the white mist. It's just that the fog that used to surround the outside like a wall can't be found. In situ, except for the tree, it is still a tree. Even the trail of the car disappeared.
What's even stranger is that she hasn't seen a single zombie yet! The fog can still explain that it can't be seen, and why is it here?
"It's a hell of a day!" Ling Wei cursed softly, stood up straight, pulled out the ice blade and continued to move forward.
But she didn't notice that the cane covered by a few leaves trembled invisibly when she pulled out the skate.
After walking for about half an hour, when she brushed away the thick layer of leaves in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Here, it's no longer the same jungle.
On the lush trees, there are exquisite and simple tree houses built here!
Some of them are on the branches in the middle of two trees, some are on the trunks of one tree, large or small, and between the adjacent tree houses, there are also horizontal ladders built with the help of existing branches.
It's like a village on a tree!
At this moment, it seems that everyone in the village is cooking. Ling Wei smelled the smell of cooking in the air.
There is a group of people living in the deep mountains and old forests?
Without zombies, it is difficult for outsiders to enter, is it really a paradise?
Ling Wei was puzzled.
She tentatively jumped onto the nearest treehouse, landing in front of the door in a few take-offs.
There was only a chubby middle-aged woman in the treehouse, who was sitting on a small stool, staring at a bubbling porcelain pot in front of her, with a happy and satisfied smile on her face.
Holding her position for a while, the middle-aged woman turned her head coldly as she picked up a piece of wood at her feet and was about to stuff it into the raging flame under the porcelain pot.
"Ahh
A high-pitched scream pierced the quiet village of trees.
Ling Wei covered her ears.
In the next moment, she felt that she had suddenly arrived at the vegetable market.
After listening to several strange sounds coming from the "ping-pong" of each tree house, he opened all the windows with a "bang", and all the heads inside came out.
"What's going on?"
"Why is Aunt Niu shouting so loudly?"
"What's the noise, my bowl is broken! Didn't you just shout! ”
"It's just, she doesn't yell and scream a lot."
"There's something to eat, right?"
"Shh......h
"Yikes! There is someone! ”
"There's a real person!"
"Wow! Aunt Niu's luck......"
"I want to grab ......"
"Shh......h
"Let's go and have a look."
"Let's go."
“……”
Ling Wei caught a few words from the messy chat: Food? Want to grab it?
What to eat? What to grab?
But after a while, there was a circle of men, women, and children around her, and they judged her.
"It's a woman."
"Still a pretty woman."
"It's so clean......"
"Tut-tut......"
Ling Wei suddenly got goosebumps. What the hell are they? Why does she think there is no normal person here?
She slowly stepped back with her feet.
Before they could exit the encirclement, the crowd was suddenly separated from the middle by a pair of powerful fat hands.
"What a noise, what a noise! Finally, a guest will be scared away by you! Aunt Niu glared angrily at everyone standing in front of her door.
In an instant, when she looked at Ling Wei, she immediately changed her smile again, "Hehe, the little girl is scared, right?" We rarely have a guest here, and they are curious, and they can't hold back and talk nonsense. Hehe, don't take it to heart......"
