The mist at the edge of the jungle was as thick and white as milk, lingering between the forest where I was and the low mountains behind me, blocking the sun and hanging above the canopy.

I rubbed my legs, which had just recovered but had not fully recovered my strength, endured the stinging pain from the soles of my feet that were burned red by the soil foam, looked at Huya anxiously, and said in my heart, "Grandma, such a big fog, you let me lean forward... At least you'll have to tell me what's going on, don't you? Just let me take someone to crash into it, so that Lao Tzu doesn't do such stupid things! ”

When the tiger girl saw that I did not move, she did not make a sound, and after a long time she hooked her finger at me, and it seemed that I was climbing up the tree like her;

The crooked neck tree in front of me is actually not difficult to climb, there are many places for hands and feet to step on, but you have to be extra careful, in this wet mist, the wet mud composed of those green algae and moss on the bark is extremely slippery, and an unstable one is likely to fall from the tree, although it is not fatal, but the distance of ten meters from the ground is enough to drop me.

I still didn't dare to take the risk, but let the dumb man go up to the first foothold, and then let the other two white robes support my ass under the tree, and then stumbled up the first branch of the crooked neck tree;

I moved cautiously, almost slowly, upwards as if the tree was full of mines, and it still took me nearly ten minutes to help... Only then did he climb to Huya's side with two arms around the neck of the tree;

The place where the tiger girl is actually not at the top of the canopy, but at the lower branches one or two meters away from the canopy, where the forest leaves are relatively sparse, and the most important thing is that there are almost no branches in front of you, and the fog is relatively light, and the sunlight overhead can just penetrate here through the leaves and take away some mist.

Rao is like this, there are so many rays of light in the dark forest, blending with the mist of this evil sect, it still gives people a feeling of chills, this feels like a person in the night of the African savannah, a person turned on a flashlight... Suddenly, two bright eyes popped up in front of me... You know, it doesn't feel good!

"What are you doing climbing so high? Have you forgotten how the hook died? ”；

I reminded the tiger girl that the scene of the hook's tragic death in the canopy was still vivid in the dense forest that had been in front of me a few hours ago, and it made me feel very worried.

"Don't make a sound, look at the tree in front of you";

Huya turned her head and whispered in my ear in a very low voice, her mouth was on top of mine, but her eyes were still staring at the fog straight ahead;

"Where? Which one do you say? ”；

I also asked softly in her voice, and then the tiger girl pointed in the direction, and made a gesture with her fingers to indicate the distance;

"Fifteen paces away, on the first branch, you have to look carefully to see!" , she said;

I rubbed my eyes and looked in the direction she was pointing, for the dense forest, which was already very low, was now mixed with such a thick fog that I had searched for a long time in that area fifteen paces away, tree by tree, but I saw nothing;

"It's so dark, and the fog is so big, what do you see? Is it the moving stone statue? ”；

"It's not";

"What the hell is that?" , I hate it so much that the root of my teeth itches, and the most annoying person is this kind of person who speaks halfway, does not tell the riddle, but hangs the audience in the air;

"It's the black bull and the bald man, they can't see anything now, they can only see clearly when they move", Huya paused;

"Are they alive? What are they doing? I almost fell from the tree in surprise and joy, and hurriedly hugged the trunk again and asked;

"They're weird, Shanna, you bring two of you over and have a look," Huya continued;

"Why don't you go?" , I asked, frowning;

"The hook is dead, if I go down from here, can you find a second person suitable to be an observation post?";

Huya didn't look at me, and said softly;

"Damn, you tossed Lao Tzu up and spent all the effort to feed me just to tell me this?" , I scolded in my heart, but I couldn't bear it, I can't afford to provoke this aunt, on the branch of the tree that can't eat on this foot, if she gets angry and bars her teeth at me, she will kick me regardless of it... I promise that I will immediately plant it headfirst down from this ten-metre-high tree;

But in any case, the bald man is still alive, which is stronger than anything, as for the black bull ... On the contrary, I don't have any fears, it's just a brute with developed limbs and a simple mind, and... Hehe, we haven't lived and died together, and compared to the bald man, Hei Niu is far from being my comrade-in-arms!

"Be careful, Shanna, if you hear the bird calls I learned, you must abandon them and run back, whatever they are doing!";

The tiger girl saw me move down and chased me softly;

My heart suddenly warmed, since that night by the white meat insect "teased" until today, Huya's attitude towards me has always been cold, terriblely cold, surprisingly cold, and now suddenly said such a warm word to me, my heart is very useful;

As the saying goes: "It's easy to go up the tree, it's hard to get off the tree", although the tree under my feet is far less than the 40-meter-tall tree that the hook climbed before towering into the clouds, but it is not at all something I can handle, just moved two steps, then fluttered on the soles of the feet, and the body slipped along the branches to the dumb under the feet, simply hugged the trunk with his arms, and the dumb grabbed my feet and necks regardless of life and death, and then stood firm again with the top shot, Rao is so, and the body was still shocked out of a cold sweat.

It is more accurate to say that I have "slidied" down than I climbed down from a tree, the button on my chest has long been worn by the trunk of the tree, and the open placket reveals my own flesh, and the belly that was originally burned red by white ash foam has been cut by the protrusion on the trunk of the tree, and there is nothing wrong with it, but it hurts so much that it makes my teeth bite;

"Dandan, dumb, and the three of you, I'll come with me!" , I pointed to the three white robes behind Dandan, and whispered;

"Cripple, you take two people to stay under the tree, answer the tiger at any time, and the others are on guard, pay attention to the birdsong!" , I was just about to leave, but after thinking about it, I still commanded again, the hook is dead, and I don't want any more accidents on the tiger girl in the tree;

And the reason why Dan Dan is with me is because I understand his cowardice, and I don't want a "deserter" to sweep away all the white robes in an instant, especially in the current situation;

The fog was still there, and the soft ground gradually felt muddy as we went deeper into the forest, and I didn't like it, it reminded me of the scene when the hook died tragically, the scream, the pair of talking eyes;

Fifteen steps is not much, but we will look around for a long time with each step of trembling, I let a white robe around the soft rattan to avoid any trouble and do not know the way, and it will not take long to reach the predetermined target area, and the "bald" and "black bull" that Huya said are also very quickly locked by my gaze, I can't tell if it is them, but from the outline that appears in the fog, "very similar"!

It's just that I don't understand why they put on a strange pose, looking at the situation, the bald man seems to be lying on the black bull's ear and talking, and the black bull uses his arms to wrap the bald man like a "zongzi" in his arms.

But none of this is important, what matters is: in the fog, the two of them are motionless, while their heads are looking in the same direction, as if their souls have been shocked out of their bodies, leaving only two soulless exorcism shells on the tree!
