"Zixuan, there's a voice nearby." I was so frightened that I exclaimed, quickly stood up, and strode in the direction of Ji Zixuan, hiding behind him in horror, and pinching his sleeves with my hands in fear.

Ji Zixuan hurriedly protected me, clutching the weapon in his hand, with a handsome face, a gloomy face and frowning, slightly pursing the corners of his lips, one arm encircled me in his arms, turned around and walked a few steps forward, and came to a spacious grass.

"Don't worry, I'm here." His deep voice calmed my originally nervous mood a lot, and I clung to his arms, carefully observing the situation after that.

"Rustling ......"

The sound of leaves rubbing against us was constantly coming nearby, as if there were many things approaching us, but we couldn't see what they were.

"Roar ......"

This strange sound made us feel as if something was approaching us again.

The two of us looked back to back to back for the convenience of observing the situation around us, I looked ahead and he looked behind.

The fog around me grew thicker, and I saw a pair of scarlet eyes staring at me, and then a pair of eyes staring at me, and these strange sounds getting closer and closer.

"Zixuan, they are getting closer and closer, and I see the scarlet color of their eyes."

It really scared me, nervously pinched Ji Zixuan's sleeve, and looked in his direction in a panic, but where he looked, there was nothing at all, why did these things come at me.

"These things are all aimed at you, is it because of the smell of the monster on your body that lured them over?" Ji Zixuan took me behind him, took off his coat, and quickly wrapped it around me.

I obediently put on his coat, "These monsters are coming for me, but can this hide the smell of me?" ”

Even though I hid behind him, put on his robe, and covered my body, I still stared at myself with those eyes, revealing a greedy gaze.

At this moment, the monsters slowly approached.

Pairs of eyes stared at us in unison, and we couldn't even count how many there were, only to see groups of them, suspended in mid-air, their black bodies translucent, and there was a faint black smoke everywhere they went.

"Let's get out of here first." Ji Zixuan protected me tightly, "These monsters, even if they have the ability to fight, we can't fight against so many ghost beasts." I nodded obediently and was pulled away by him.

Ji Zixuan continued to cast spells, and immediately took out a charm from his arms, slashed it in the air a few times, and threw it backwards, emitting a golden light, and those monsters were so frightened that they fled in all directions when they saw this light.

Running all the way down, there were very few of those ghost beasts left. The rest of the monsters, seeing this scene, were also frightened and fled in all directions.

"In this spell, the top priority must be to clean up the smell of monsters on your body."

There is not much of the charm left on Ji Zixuan's body, otherwise, if the ghost beast is attracted again, the two of us will not be able to fight against it at all.

After Ji Zixuan repelled these ghost beasts, he kept walking forward with me, trying to escape this illusion.

"It's not a way for us to go on like this." After sitting for a full hour, he still did not reach the edge, but kept spinning in the forest.

Ji Zixuan was not in a hurry, looking left and right, because the fog was getting thicker and thicker, he couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly, and found that there was no black shadow of trees in front of him, as if there was nothing in front of him.

"Don't be in a hurry, come up and take a look." He comforted me softly.

"Hmm." I followed him forward, but found myself in front of an open meadow, talking about the crystal clear water, and even a lot of small fish swimming in the lake.

Because of these fish, it adds a bit of vitality to the lake.

"This ......" I had some strange half-squatting down, gently touching the water with my hands, holding the lake water with my hands, and the cold touch slowly flowed from my hands.

"Did we get out of the illusion set by the monster?" Only then did I notice that the fog around me slowly dissipated and then vanished.

Ji Zixuan shook his head with some uncertainty: "I don't know."

Now it is imperative to clean up the smell of monsters on your body, so as not to provoke ghosts and beasts.

"This lake seems to be a clear spring, should I go down and get rid of the smell on my body?" I walked a few steps forward and saw a spring not far away that was constantly bubbling water, and I was amazed.

Ji Zixuan checked the clear spring, and then allowed me to take a bath: "Yes, but as soon as possible."

I know what he means, the two of us have been trapped in this illusion for several hours, and we haven't gone out until now, and although the monster was injured by him, if he came to us again, and what happened to him in his illusion, the two of us couldn't fight it.

"Okay, you can turn around." I responded quickly, then took off my coat and put it in the clear water, entered the clear spring, sat on the stone in the clear spring, held the clothes in one hand, and gently rubbed them, trying to wash the smell away.

At this moment, unconsciously, the water in the spring slowly became turbid, I was a little surprised, thinking that it was the dirt on my clothes, but the lake water became more and more turbid, and I quickly boiled the water.

"Zixuan, this water is getting more and more muddy, what should I do?" I sensed something was wrong and grabbed my clothes and tried to stand up.

Ji Zixuan heard my shout, and originally stood aside to guard me, and quickly took a few steps forward, looking at the lake.

Ji Zixuan's face changed instantly, his brows furrowed, and he hurriedly stepped forward: "Quick, leave this lake, something is wrong."

I heard his cry and walked towards the shore, but with some difficulty, the lake had become muddy, already muddy and dirty.

"I ...... I couldn't walk anymore, and the lake turned into muddy water. "I hadn't walked a few steps before the mud in the lake was getting bigger and bigger, sucking me in and making me even more immobile.

Ji Zixuan became more and more anxious, leaning forward and stretching out his arm, trying to pull me out, but I was a little far away from him, and I couldn't touch him, not even his fingers.

"I threw my clothes over you, see if you can touch them and pull me out." I was very panicked in my heart, and I pretended to be calm, thinking that I still had the coat I had taken off, and hurriedly threw it at him.

And if I move now, it's like a swamp, sucking me deeper and deeper.

But because I was far away from him, I threw my clothes halfway and landed on the swamp, where the muddy water slowly tried to devour my clothes.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Ji Zixuan wanted to touch my clothes but missed it because of the distance, and in desperation, he half-squatted on the ground and stretched out his arms with difficulty.

Soon the clothes were stuck in the swamp, and I tried hard to pull them out, but I threw them again, but the clothes were so wet that I couldn't throw them out, and my only hope was lost.

"It seems that we are still in this illusion, I will find a way to get you out, you don't move yet, so as not to suck you in." Ji Zixuan stood on the shore anxiously, there was not even a single branch around, and immediately squatted down and used a spell to rescue me.

I saw the golden light in his hand running rapidly, stationing the light into the swamp, but he found that it had disappeared, and there was no reaction at all.

Ji Zixuan suddenly panicked, and hurriedly used the spell again, but there was still no response.

"I feel so uncomfortable, Ji Zixuan." And I was trapped in the swamp, my body was slimy, my whole body felt cold, and my hands were on the swamp trying to break free from the restraints under my feet, but the tighter I sank, and I could clearly feel the soil of the swamp clinging to my feet. It slowly spread to the chest area, making me a little breathless.

"My spells don't work at all." Ji Zixuan stood on the shore anxiously, his face became extremely cold, but there was nothing to assist him beside him, and when he stepped in, he would definitely fall into the same trap as me.

"Don't be in a hurry, find out if there are any trees nearby, sticks or something like that can pull me out......" Before I could finish my words, he directly interrupted me.

"It's too late, you're getting deeper and deeper, I'll go in and rescue you immediately." Ji Zixuan directly interrupted my words, cold sweat kept coming out on his forehead, staring at me nervously, but he was at a loss, and he wanted to step into the swamp to rescue me in desperation.

I immediately stopped him: "Absolutely not, I have fallen deeper and deeper, if you come in, you will be like me, you can't save me at all, but will take your life." I yelled at him in a hurry.

Ji Zixuan was stunned for a moment, but he still resolutely jumped in: "I can only jump in now, what if you die again, what will I do?" To die together. He lifted up a piece of grass and put it in front of him, so that he could have some buffer time before he sank in.

"You ......" I tried to stop him with tears in my eyes, but by this time he had already jumped in, stood on a piece of grass, half-crouched, put his hands on my shoulders, and tried hard to get me out.

But I watched the small piece of grass she stepped on, sinking deeper and deeper, and then sinking in, his feet were slowly sinking deeper and deeper.

"Leave me alone, get out of here, you're going to be trapped."

Although he pulled out a little, his whole leg was already sunk in, and if it continued like this, both of us would be buried in the swamp and unable to get out.

Ji Zixuan gently stroked my cheek with one hand, and looked at me with affection, "Since you can't get out, I can't give up on you because of this, and I want to die together." ”

"You ......" I was deeply moved by his affectionate appearance, I didn't expect him to follow me, but I was trapped in the swamp and couldn't move, but there was no way.

"Why are you so stupid?" He stared at him with a choked voice and a reproachful tone, holding his hand tightly with one hand, not noticing the slow change in the surrounding scene.
