Zhen Shifeng's question is obviously aimed at omitting the past plot in the transition CG, which is really important to whether he can successfully pass the level and complete the task, and they will probably ask this question if they are Xiao Ming Edward.

"Oh, you've heard that rumor, too?" Although the dead tree was suspicious, there was no surprise in its tone, as if it had already anticipated the content of the other party's question, so he said lightly: "What happened after that is also simple, after the death of the queen, the king was repeatedly plagued by nightmares, so he personally brought people here to burn this cherry blossom forest to eradicate the trouble, but in the end it ended up with a fire **, and was burned here on the spot, which can be described as evil and evil retribution." "From then on, ...... withered tree, pausing slightly, looking a little hesitant, "Since then, this area has been shrouded in the king's resentment and evil thoughts for many years, and eventually gave birth to the product of resentment like me, which is really ironic. ”

"You mean there are other dryads in this forest like you?" Edward couldn't help but ask.

"That's nature, more than fifty percent of the trees in the forest are evil, especially those tree spirits who live in the depths, their strength is a hundred times stronger than mine, so I said that this is a forbidden place for you humans." As he spoke, the withered tree's distorted face turned to Zhen Shifeng again, "Human, you only have one chance left to ask questions." ”

"Cousin, it's better to let it tell us the location of the grave, so that we won't have to run around in the forest like headless flies, so that the probability of encountering danger will be greatly reduced."

Although Xiao Ming's suggestion does make sense, according to the tips of the multi-functional vanity mirror, this product will only answer questions related to the plot, even if the dead tree knows the location of the grave, Zhen Shifeng didn't think about it at all from the beginning.

I saw Zhen Shifeng take two steps forward, rub his chin violently with his hand, and asked lightly: "My second question is also very simple, I don't know if you can tell me...... Where was the bell of the knight's corpse worn by the queen? ”

"Ha, this is simple, the bell is ......" Halfway through speaking, the dead tree's expression suddenly froze, and it took a long time for it to react and yell, "What did you just ask?" ”

"I'm asking where the bell from the knight's corpse is worn by the queen, is that difficult?"

"Uh......" The dead tree didn't know how to answer for a while, if he said he didn't know, but he had just said half of the words, how could the other party believe it?

Seeing this, Edward on the side was really a little puzzled, "Brother Zhen, is there any significance to your question?" ”

"Meaning? If this question is decisive for us to successfully clear the level, then does it make sense? Zhen Shifeng didn't even think about it, and replied casually.

"......" Brother Feng's leaping thinking is really incomprehensible to normal people.

After a fierce ideological struggle, after a long time, the dead tree slowly replied, "The bell has always been worn on the queen's wrist. ”

"Are you sure you're not lying to me?"

"Hehe, I will only choose to say it or not, but as long as I say it, it must be the truth." Dead Tree's words are true, and as a fixed NPC that turns to provide information to players, its answer is 100% reliable. However, it is important to note that although this NPC is telling the truth, if it mistakes a lie for truth, it is not lying. Zhen Shifeng guessed this possibility, but he couldn't speculate without confirming evidence.

"I've said everything I need to say, and since you want to go into the woods, then please." As he spoke, the dead tree retracted the branches and leaves that stood in the way, making way for everyone. But Zhen Shifeng whispered twice in Xiao Ming's ear, and then he took the other party's knife and strode towards the dead tree.

"Uh...... What are you? "The dead tree suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Hehe, don't worry, my knife skills are absolutely clean and neat!"

………………

After stepping into the forest, Brother Feng and the four of them walked cautiously on the forest path according to the previous arrangement. The faint fragrance that permeated the air was much lighter, but it was still pungent.

"That...... There's one thing I haven't had time to ask. The smoke curling beside Edward was the first time he had taken the initiative to speak.

"Little beauty, please speak." Walking behind, Zhen Shifeng said politely.

Hearing the word 'beauty', he was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Edward, who spread his hands helplessly and smiled, it seems that the word 'sister' that he inadvertently said before was still noticed by the other party. And Xiao Ming was still in the dark at the scene, looking at others and looking at himself, he always felt that his reaction seemed to be half a beat slow.

Seeing this, he didn't bother to talk nonsense, and then asked, "I just wanted to say, do you remember what the name of this script is?" ”

"You mean Sea of Phantom Trees?"

"Well, it's the Sea of Phantom Trees, but what does the 'Phantom Tree' mean?"

"I see, do you mean to say that these dead trees in the forest that have been eroded by evil spirits will cause us to hallucinate?" Xiao Ming nodded thoughtfully.

"In addition, this inexplicable aroma in the forest also needs special attention." Zhen Shifeng added casually.

However, at this moment, the fragrance that permeated the forest suddenly became much lighter, and invisible sound waves came, Zhen Shifeng was dizzy at first, and his body seemed to be pressed under a thousand catties of boulders and could not move at all, and then his body was as light as a feather, and when he opened his eyes, he found that below him was an endless river of blood composed of red blood, not only that, but his reflection in the 'water' was only a bloody head!

"Nima, what the hell is this?" Nervous, Zhen Shifeng first took two deep breaths, but was almost choked by the heavy smell of blood. Then he squinted his eyes and scanned the surroundings, and it turned out that the blood river was in a valley, flanked by high and steep cliffs, and there was a wooden spiral staircase on the bank that led to the top of the cliff.

"Could it be that these are all hallucinations?" Before I had time to think about it, I could only hear a few swishing sounds, and a large number of objects the size of basketballs suddenly fell from mid-air, and on closer inspection, these globular objects were actually human heads with lips, noses, and ears cut off.

Although Zhen Shifeng below tried his best to control his head to avoid the shore, because the crowd was too dense, he was finally smashed by a stinking head.

It didn't matter if it was smashed, Zhen Shifeng felt a blur in front of him, and a familiar fragrance rushed into his nose. When he woke up, he found that he was back in the woods again, and the three teammates around him were still there, but they were all as weak as himself.

"Just ...... What happened just now, and how did I end up in the lava? Xiao Ming clutched his chest and gasped to himself.

"Magma? Didn't it fall into the digester? ”

"Huh? I ran to the moon and almost suffocated to death. ”

"Hehe, you're all weak in front of my river of human heads."

"It seems that each of us has different hallucinations." Edward covered his mouth and nose tightly with his hand and continued, "I'm afraid it's these scents that make us hallucinate, as long as you cover your mouth and nose like me, you should be fine, right?" ”

"Tsk, so you're not stupid." Zhen Shifeng couldn't help grinning.

"Of course, I'm also a researcher in scientific research projects." As he spoke, Edward pinched his nose firmly, not to mention the aroma, not even the bacteria could flow in. But it didn't take long for his body to start twitching, rolling his eyes, and foaming at the mouth.

Seeing this, Xiao Ming and Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and forcibly broke Edward's hand holding his nose so that the aroma could flow smoothly into his nasal cavity. It took him a while to regain his saneity from the hallucination.

"Aha...... Aha...... How...... How so? ”

"Alas, brother, you're so stupid."

"Brother Dehua, it's better to do less self-harm like this in the future."

Zhen Shifeng, who was on the side, shook his head with interest, and then asked Xiang Yanyan: "What kind of scientific research is your brother engaged in?" ”

"Uh...... It's just a matter of repairing electronic accessories for people. ”

"Oh, then you're really sorry for the words 'scientific research work', don't apologize quickly."

"Huh...... Hehe......" Edward sneered helplessly, "I'm wrong, but at least it proves that there is nothing to do with the illusion and the aroma. ”

"Of course it matters, brother, haven't you found out, this fragrance should be something similar to an antidote, which can help us dispel the hallucinations we produce."

"Little Beauty is right, but I have to add one more thing." Zhen Shifeng shook his index finger and explained: "The phenomenon of collective hallucinations like ours before should be a passive trick, I am afraid it is caused by the weakening of the concentration of the surrounding aroma, and we can't interfere with it at present." And the self-harm behavior like Brother Dehua just now is an active trick, which is referred to as a full support, as long as he is assisted by external forces, he can help him get rid of his hallucinations. ”

"But no one is stupid enough to take the initiative, right?"

"That's why I said I was full."

“……… Well, count it on you. ”

Speaking of this, Zhen Shifeng couldn't help but snap his fingers, "In short, we must always pay attention to the concentration of the surrounding aroma, and once there is a situation, we must leave the area as soon as possible, otherwise if we are hit without external interference, no one can guarantee that we can automatically free ourselves from the illusion as before." ”
