Kong Xian nodded in response, and we began to walk towards the wilderness over there.

Why do I call this wilderness? That's because a large area of trees in this place is all burned carbon black and carbon black, and the ground is also black, anyway, what a ridiculous word. Walking down there, I was worried that the charred tree tops above would suddenly be swept by a small gust of wind, and then fall on our heads, giving us a terrible version of the scene of the concussion disaster.

"Go here, we may not be able to touch Mo Ranchen and Lin Su." I asked, rubbing my somewhat hot ears and frowning at the endless wilderness ahead.

Kong Xian also seemed to be a little entangled in this question, "If the two of us rely on ourselves for the rest of the road, it will be a bit hanging." Find a way to mark them, you can meet the best. ”

"Isn't that a bit of a hanging?" I glared exaggeratedly, "Just because the two of us are old, weak, sick and pregnant, we have to wait for someone to give up our seats when we get in the car, and we are still looking for the palace?" Any hill that climbs up and down the slope, it won't work without Mo Zhanchen, and it is estimated that it is the most promising to find the Hades Mansion. ”

He glanced at me with the tail of his eye, and then he found a tree on his own, took out a dagger from his pocket, and made a gesture to show the carver's skill and carve a mark on the tree.

My heart tightened, so I hurriedly stopped him, waved my hand again and again, and said, "Oh, my fairy, let's calm down!" This tree has become charcoal, and it may be brittle. Good guy, you cut down these knives, and then they will be broken directly and smashed on our heads with a click, and the ground will be full of blood......"

"Are you stupid?" He put away his hand and looked at me funny, "Touch it yourself to see if it's crispy or not." ”

I was really stunned by what he said, and quickly touched the trunk of the tree in front of me. I realized that it was really not what I thought, the charcoal that looked crispy was as hard as a stone, and even slapped it with a slap and punched without moving.

"What's the situation?" Surprised, I found a few other trees and tried them, all of them were as hard as stones, and they didn't move even if I kicked them, "This thing...... Fake, right? ”

"Poof......" Kong Xian was directly amused by me, slapped me on the back of the head, and scolded with a smile: "You shouldn't have traveled over the Jurassic, haven't you seen fossils?" Silly or not? ”

I saw that he really took me for a fool, so I pointed to the tree and teased: "As far as you old Master Kong know, don't you?" What do you mean I haven't seen fossils? This ancient city is only more than 100 years old, where did the fossils come from? ”

"The history of this ancient city is short, but it does not mean that the history of this ancient tree is also short." "Normally, it takes more than 500 years for a tree to be fossilized, but judging by the trees in front of us, it is indeed the structure of fossils," he explained, "Normally, it takes more than 500 years to fossilize a tree. In other words, these trees may have existed before the ancient city existed. But...... There is another possibility......" he said this, frowning and looking around warily.

I saw that he was only halfway there, and I was very irritated to hear it. I hurriedly urged him not to sell me here.

After thinking about it for a while, he finally said in an uncertain tone: "There is also a situation where there is something special about this place that has made these trees complete the process of petrification ahead of schedule in more than 100 years. ”

"Finish the petrochemical process ahead of schedule?" I think it's very unreliable when I listen to it. I have only heard of ripening grains, hormones and fast-growing poultry and livestock. It's the first time I've heard of trees that are urging trees to turn into fossils in advance. Isn't this full of food and no food to cook? How? At that time, people had such unique tastes, so they liked to make some of this postmodernist style of art?

Don't look at me in disbelief, but Kong Xian looked a little worried, he tapped on the trunk of the tree, his eyes kept searching around, and then reminded: "We better be careful, I don't know if you saw a sign hanging on one of the trees when you came in." I don't know how many years have passed, this sign has become very dilapidated, and it has become the same color as this tree, so it is difficult to find, I accidentally glanced at it at the time, and it was written in crooked letters: Forbidden land, no entry. Because those words are so child-like, I didn't ask you to look at them at the time, but thought they were a prank carved by a child. ”

"Then hurry forward, get out of this forest first!" I had just finished speaking when I suddenly felt something under my feet, and when I looked down, I realized that it was actually a copper coin!

The copper coin has some green rust on it, and the whole color is relatively dull, presumably covered by rotting dust on the ground for many years, causing it to look very old.

"Is this an antique?" I asked with a smile as I crouched down to pick up the coin.

But it doesn't matter if I pick it up, the moment I picked up the copper coin, I found that there was a silk thread connected to the front and back of this thing, and the silk thread was pitch black, and I could only vaguely distinguish the material of metal, but I couldn't tell what metal it was.

"Don't move!" Kong Xian quickly leaned down and pressed my hand down, preventing me from continuing to pull the silk thread.

It's a pity that it's too late, my whole body is still in a state of coercion, and suddenly I feel that something is entangled in my hand, Kong Xian's hand is covered in mine, and it is also entangled, and it is very firm.

When I came back to my senses, I realized that it was actually the silk thread wrapped around the copper coin. I don't know what kind of mechanism my pull triggered, but the thread was rolled up and rolled our hands inside.

Then I felt the thread wrapped around our hands suddenly pull forward, and before we could react, it pulled both of us to the ground.

I used my other hand to try my best to grasp the trees next to me. But no, the tree is too thick for me to catch anything. So I switched to digging the ground with my fingernails, but it still didn't work, my nails were scratched, and I couldn't find a stable position.

The silk thread that pulls us is so powerful that it drags the two of us like leper dogs, but it pulls in just the right direction, so that we can't hold on to the trees next to us, or borrow strength from the trees next to us.

After being dragged out for two or three hundred meters, I gave up completely, and my whole body was covered with dirt scraped on the ground, and my skin was all scratched. I simply loosened my strength and said to Kong Xian in front of me: "I gave up, what can I do!" However, we should think about the good in everything, at least it is much faster than walking with our feet, which saves time and effort. ”

After hearing what I said, Kong Xian spat out the soil and sand that collapsed into his mouth, and replied, "Who taught you this positive and optimistic attitude? Tell me, let me strangle him first. We are now uncertain and in a critical situation, and we must not give up until the last minute, otherwise we may lose all the games. ”

I let out a wry smile helplessly and asked, "Then what do you say I should do now?" Just pull out the waist knife and amputate yourself? Then you really think so highly of me, I'm going to leave a whole corpse for myself! ”

"You're really...... Kong Xian sighed speechlessly, and then used his other hand to reach the tree next to him.

However, this time we were lucky, and as soon as Kong Xian finished speaking, the silk thread suddenly pulled us to a reversed position. With the force of the shake, Kong Xian quickly hugged a small tree that was not too thick.

He paused suddenly, leaving me unstable. The whole person who was thrown directly circled in a semicircle, and then was in a position to face him.

Seeing that there was no time to lose, I quickly pulled out the waist knife from my waist and slashed at the thread. The whole action is like a butcher chopping meat, and one or twenty knives are cut at once!

This silk thread is really strong, no one has it, this kind of first-class boutique, it has to be thousands of dollars a meter to have a ghost. Although the waist knife in my waist does not say that the iron is like clay, it is not much worse, I thought that the line would be broken after two knives, but I didn't expect to cut out dozens of knives, and finally cut the silk thread......

I gasped and untied the threads that were tied to our hands. Then he lay on the ground and muttered, "I have been closed in the ghost gate again." The two of us don't know how many times we haven't died in a catastrophe, so it's time to see the aftermath, right? ”

"Houfu?" Kong Xian lay on the ground and smiled bitterly, "It's still early......"

After he finished speaking, he struggled to get up from the ground, and the wound on his back must have been affected a little more, and he frowned in pain.

Then he took me by the arm, pulled me up, pointed in the direction of the thread pulling, and said, "Let's go over and have a look." ”

I saw that a cloud of dust had been raised in the direction where the thread had gone, and it was not difficult to trace it. However, the speed of the two of us will definitely not be able to catch up, the short distance is fine, if the distance is long, we will definitely have to lose.

Without stopping long, we hurriedly followed the silk thread. But as I walked, I suddenly felt that inexplicable familiarity disappear. Originally, this feeling was very shallow, but when the situation was tense before, I didn't pay much attention to it, and now that I think about it, I don't know where that feeling disappeared.

I looked in the direction where the thread was going and muttered, "Hiss...... Otherwise, let's not go along, I'm a little hairy. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The sense of familiarity that I told you before is gone, and I don't know where it leads. This place looks even more eerie than the rest of the old city, and we don't know what to expect. After I finished speaking, I fixed myself and looked back and forth, and vaguely felt a mist rise from the woods, but the color of the mist was a little grayish.

Kong Xian also noticed, he nodded, pulled me back, and then reminded in a low voice: "Be careful, we have to return to the line you are familiar with as soon as possible." ”

After walking a few steps, we found that the route back was actually more difficult to walk, and we had been dragged by the line and thrown off a few curves, but now we can only rely on the feeling of one direction, and we can't follow the route when we came. I remember that when we were dragged around, we both left marks around us, and there should have been Kong Xian's knife marks on the ground and my fingernail prints, but now I can't find them.

Surrounded by large swaths of carbon-black fossilized trees, and the rising mist, the range of our flashlight's rays was a little closer, and our sense of direction was almost chaotic now.

"There seems to be something wrong with the direction we are taking." I stopped and looked at the compass on my wrist, "The position we came in before should be due east, but the direction we are going back now is due west, can we go the other way around?" ”

"Then don't go yet, there's something in the fog!" Kong Xian reminded me, and I found that the fog around us kept tumbling like boiling hot water under the light of the flashlight!

"What's going on?"

"There should be something moving in the fog, so it stirred up this fog......" As soon as Kong Xian's words fell, a yellow eye suddenly appeared under the flashlight light that shone to the left! It's the size of a washbasin! It's a little reflective like a cat's eyes!

"it!" I cursed in horror and hurriedly stepped back. The pupils of this eye were very abnormal, and the surrounding area was like a crack, full of blood-red lines like lightning, and a cold sweat broke out on my back when I saw it.

Before he could retreat two steps away, he saw that the big eyes of the basin opened two identical eyes on the left and right! The only difference is that these two eyes seem to carry emotions, a kind of resentful anger!

I felt my teeth fighting when I spoke, and I shuddered and sighed, "This can't be a howling dog raised by Erlang God, right?" ”

"Leave it alone, run!" Kong Xian greeted, pulled me around and ran backwards.
