Chapter 534: Monster Forest
readx;
The old woman mysteriously glanced in the direction of the woods, took a few steps closer to Wu Zhiyuan and Sheng Wanxiang, and said in a low voice: "There are monsters in the woods."
"What kind of monster," Wu Zhiyuan asked with a slight frown
"I don't know about this, but it is said that the village is also cursed, and the people in the village will die as soon as they leave the village, and if outsiders break in, they will also be killed," the old woman said, and glanced at Wu Zhiyuan and Sheng Wanxiang a few times, her eyes were extremely complicated
"Has anyone been in before, or someone from the village has come out," Wu Zhiyuan asked with a deep sigh
"These are all stories handed down from the last few generations, whether they are true or false, if you are lucky, you are found by the monsters in the woods, you are also lost, and you may find that village, otherwise you will know the difficulties and retreat, young man, this is the opportunity I said, do you understand" The old woman poked her head and asked, but without waiting for Wu Zhiyuan and Sheng Wanxiang to answer, she shook her head and walked away
Looking at the back of the old woman who was drifting away, Wu Zhiyuan and Sheng Wanxiang glanced at each other, and Wu Zhiyuan read doubts and distrust from Sheng Wanxiang's eyes
"Do you think that lady's words just now have some credibility," Wu Zhiyuan asked as he walked in the direction of the woods
"Mixed truth," Sheng Wanxiang replied succinctly, "Even if there is no truth in her words, it is not that she is deliberately deceiving us, but that the local rumors are not true."
Wu Zhiyuan nodded, Sheng Wanxiang's analytical ability to deal with things is not weak at all, although it is not as perceptive as Moon Shadow Fuxian, but it will definitely not be superficial
The two soon arrived at the edge of the woods that the old woman pointed to, standing at the edge of the woods, and both of them felt an eerie chill at the same time, this is the shady side of Shizhong Mountain, and the woods are in the depression, so the light is not sufficient, there is a breathtaking coldness, this cold not only comes from the surrounding temperature, but also from the heart of the person
The two of them looked into the woods for a moment, because the light in the forest was dim, they could only see more than ten meters away, and after stopping for a moment, they walked directly into the woods
After walking more than a dozen steps, Sheng Wanxiang suddenly called out to Wu Zhiyuan and said, "Brother Zhiyuan, give me the knife"
Wu Zhiyuan asked the reason, and directly handed the Blood Shadow Demon Knife on his waist to Sheng Wanxiang, who used the Blood Shadow Demon Knife to cut off a piece of skin from the tree on the side
"If you have a mark, you won't get lost," Sheng Wanxiang smiled confidently
Wu Zhiyuan smiled heartily, secretly praised Sheng Wanxiang in his heart, thoughtful, maybe a woman's mind is more delicate than a man's, if the moon shadow caress the immortal, she will also think of these details, but Wu Zhiyuan will not take care of it
Every ten steps or so that the two of them walked, Sheng Wanxiang would cut off a piece of skin from the tree on the side to mark it, Wu Zhiyuan watched Sheng Wanxiang take the trouble to do the same thing over and over again, and admired her patience for three points
After touching a stick of incense, the light of the woods became darker and darker, but the village always appeared in the field of vision of the two of them
The trees in the woods are still a variety of tree species, mixed in height and height, sometimes the way forward has to rely on the Blood Shadow Demon Knife to cut off some of the low shrubs to open up, it can be seen that this forest is really inaccessible, Wu Zhiyuan is a little suspicious, an ancient village is isolated from the world all the year round, how the people of that village survive, it is not that this village can grow self-sufficient food, and even daily necessities can be self-supplied
Wu Zhiyuan kept chopping the bushes blocking the road, trying to make the road wide, so as not to scratch Sheng Wanxiang, his skin and flesh were firm and rough, but Sheng Wanxiang's skin was delicate, and he couldn't help the torture of these shrubs and thorns
After opening a path, the two continued to move forward, and at this time, Wu Zhiyuan handed the Blood Shadow Demon Knife to Sheng Wanxiang and asked her to mark the tree
The woods were surprisingly quiet, and there was even a bird call, and there was some darkness around, Wu Zhiyuan looked up at the sky, and found that he didn't know when the sun had set, and the sky would not be dark
Wu Zhiyuan was about to urge Sheng Wanxiang to follow behind him, when Sheng Wanxiang shouted in shock: "Brother Zhiyuan"
Wu Zhiyuan turned around and saw Sheng Wanxiang standing next to a tree, her eyes staring at the trunk tightly, her face frightened
"What's wrong," Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly walked over and found that Sheng Wanxiang was staring at an area of the tree trunk that had been peeled off
"This piece of shaved bark ......," Sheng Wanxiang tried to calm her emotions, but her expression was still a little flustered, "This piece of shaved bark is a mark I left before"
Wu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood the meaning of Sheng Wanxiang's words: the two went back together
Wu Zhiyuan reached out and touched the trunk of the tree that had been peeled off the bark, and found that it was indeed a wound that had been cut off for a long time, and according to the time calculation, it should be the mark left by Sheng Wanxiang when the two of them first entered the woods
"Brother Zhiyuan, what should I do," Sheng Wanxiang's voice trembled slightly, after all, she had never experienced the situation of getting lost in the barren mountains and mountains
Wu Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and comforted: "Don't be afraid" said as he took off the burden on his shoulders and took out the compass from it, and the pointer in the compass not only has the effect of detecting the yin spirit, but also has the effect of indicating the direction, in fact, the original directional compass was used to indicate the direction in navigation
Wu Zhiyuan held the peachwood sword in one hand and leveled the compass with the other, and found that the compass pointer did not move, indicating that everything around him was normal, he followed the direction of the center pointer of the compass, as long as he walked in this direction, there would be no situation of turning in place, even if he couldn't see the village, he would definitely be able to get out of this wood
Sheng Wanxiang followed closely behind Wu Zhiyuan, holding the Blood Shadow Demon Knife tightly in her hand, she was a woman who had lived in the boudoir for a long time since she was a child, and it was beyond Wu Zhiyuan's expectation that she could be emotionally stable at this time
The two of them followed the pointer of the compass one after the other, and for about half a stick of incense, and at this time the sky was getting dark, and after half a stick of incense, the five fingers would be missing in the woods
Wu Zhiyuan's heart was a little anxious, there were too many dangers to be trapped in this forest overnight, and the first thing he thought of was what the old woman said, there might be monsters in this forest
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly Sheng Wanxiang let out a scream, Wu Zhiyuan turned around and saw Sheng Wanxiang looking at the bushes not far away on the right with a frightened face, and said in a trembling voice: "Where is it...... There......"
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the bushes, because the light was unknown, he found everything, he squinted and stared for a moment, thinking that it might be Sheng Wanxiang who was too nervous, and was just about to say something to comfort, when suddenly the bushes shook and made a sound of rubbing branches and leaves
"Who" Wu Zhiyuan shouted, and at the same time clenched the peachwood sword in his hand
