Wei Yi and Shen Cheng carefully followed the sound all the way and quietly touched it. Half-crouching, they crouched in the grass and crept towards the source of the sound. The constant sound of footsteps around them always carried a moment in their hearts.

But the voice was always not far from them, as if it was close to them, but it seemed to be far away from the sky. At this time, the situation of near and far is really elusive.

But Wei Yi found that they had been walking for so long, but no one appeared. And, as they kept moving forward, the footsteps gradually got closer and closer to them.

Although the voice was still near and far away, when it was close, Wei Yi listened to it and felt that the voice was already not far from them. His heart gradually became nervous. He didn't know where the sound came from.

This situation, so weird and so unreasonable, is really something that Wei Yi has never encountered.

In Wei Yi's heart, an irrepressible sense of curiosity gradually rose. He couldn't help but quicken his pace, trying to find the source of the sound as soon as possible, and take a good look at what it was making the sound.

Shen Cheng seemed to know Wei Yi's thoughts. He saw Wei Yi suddenly speed up his pace, causing the weeds around them to make a slight noise. In order to be able to continue to hide and not be exposed, he hurriedly waved his hand to stop Wei Yi.

Wei Yi looked back at Shen Cheng suspiciously, wanting to ask, but suddenly remembered their current situation. He immediately understood Shen Cheng's intentions, and hurriedly smiled apologetically at Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng waved his hand, signaling Wei Yi to slow down his steps and not make a sound easily. Wei Yu understood, nodded, carefully bent his waist, and continued to walk.

Half-crouched, lurking in waist-deep grass, they silently groped towards the source of the sound. Wei Yi half-squatted among the weeds and quietly picked up the weeds in front of him.

He looked up and looked out of the grass.

No, nothing special.

Outside, there are many trees and weeds, and it doesn't look special. Wei Yi glanced at it a few times, but didn't find anything. But he could hear it very clearly. The sound of footsteps of varying severity, chaotic and messy, obviously sounded from time to time not far from him.

Wei Yi observed for a while, and then listened to the sound that appeared from time to time. After a while, he shook his head sideways at Shen Cheng, and said softly, "No, not a single person." ”

Shen Cheng was also carefully observing the situation outside the grass at this time. When he heard Wei Yi's words, he raised his hand and gently flicked the grass again, and looked around.

Shen Cheng looked out for a while, and suddenly seemed to have found something, and was slightly stunned. He turned his head sideways and said to Wei Yi, "Listen." The sound seemed to come from the trees. ”

Wei Yi raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly looked in the direction that Shen Cheng was pointing. He looked at it for a while, and saw that not far from them, there were a few crooked-neck trees growing crookedly.

At first glance, those trees seem unremarkable. It's like it's just an ordinary tree, nothing special. But Wei Yi watched carefully for a while. Suddenly, he noticed that on the trunks of those trees, there seemed to be a dense mass of bloated fruits. And the intermittent sound of footsteps at that time seemed to come from those fruits.

Wei Yi was a little stunned by his discovery. He looked at the bloated fruits with some confusion, and turned his head sideways to communicate with Shen Cheng silently.

Shen Cheng also seemed to notice the abnormality of those fruits. He lifted his chin and motioned for Wei Yi to follow him to see what was going on. Wei Yi couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, so he nodded hurriedly and responded.

They bent their waists and walked through the thick weeds, silently touching the strange crooked neck trees together.

Slowly, among the weeds, they quietly approached the crooked-necked tree not far away. Wei Yi felt that the weeds at his feet seemed to be getting tougher and tougher as they went. He casually reached out to pull down a weed, but he actually broke the rhizomes of those weeds.

Wei Yi was stunned, and hurriedly tried again. But that's still the case. Suddenly, he noticed that the weeds that grew around them were very different. They have tougher rhizomes, darker colors, and seem to have grown for decades, and they seem to be better varieties.

Even the leaves they grow seem to be older than the weeds in other places. Wei Yi wanted to continue to take another look, but was quickly stopped by Shen Cheng beside him. Shen Cheng pointed to the crooked-necked tree in the distance, reminding Wei Yi what was the top priority.

Wei Yi smiled at Shen Cheng with some embarrassment. He also knew that his curiosity was too serious. But he just couldn't get rid of it. Because of this, every now and then there will be a small desertion. Fortunately, he didn't waste too much time this time.

Shen Cheng shook his head. He knew that Wei Yi was such a person, and once his curiosity came up, he would slip away. He shook his head and motioned for Wei Yi to continue walking with him. Wei Yi nodded hurriedly, followed Shen Cheng and continued to touch the distance.

They walked for a while, and Shen Cheng suddenly waved his hand to stop Wei Yi from continuing to advance.

Wei Yi looked sideways at Shen Cheng suspiciously, and asked with his eyes.

Shen Cheng made a shushing gesture and motioned for Wei Yi to be calm and uneasy.

Wei Yi didn't know if Shen Cheng had discovered something unusual again. He hurriedly crouched down and looked around from side to side. But there was nothing out of the ordinary around except for the messy weeds and tall trees.

Wei Yi looked around for a moment and didn't find anything. He was secretly wondering when suddenly, a slight popping sound, not far from them, rang out violently.

Wei Yi was startled and hurriedly followed the prestige. At this glance, he was a little stunned.

What is the sound of popping, it is clearly the sound of those bloated fruits suddenly parting left and right.

And as the fruits parted, there were bursts of noisy and messy footsteps, and they rang out in an instant. Wei Yi heard the sound at first from the fruit, and then those voices suddenly appeared in the distance.

Wei Yi looked at the fruits in surprise, a little incredulous at what he saw and heard in front of him. Only then did he realize that the mystery of the footsteps, which had always puzzled him, was actually from this strange fruit.

They had been so far away from the crooked neck trees that they hadn't discovered the secret of the fruits. Now, they were crouching not far from the crooked-necked trees, and they saw the true source of the sounds. This discovery surprised Wei Yi. He couldn't understand this strange phenomenon at all.

Wei Yi had never seen such a strange phenomenon since he knew this world. Can sound be stored? He looked sideways at Shen Cheng suspiciously, and asked softly, "What kind of fruit is this?" How can it make these sounds? ”

Shen Cheng also didn't know anything about this. He shook his head slightly, lowered his voice and replied, "I don't know." It's also the first time I've seen something like this. You wait here, I'll go and see. Don't move around. Something is wrong here. ”

Shen Cheng said, pointing to the weeds around him. Wei Yi understood, nodded, and watched Shen Cheng walk towards the crooked neck tree in the distance. He watched Shen Cheng approach the crooked neck tree step by step, and for some reason, he suddenly felt extremely uneasy in his heart.

He was shocked, didn't think much about it, and immediately reminded him: "Be careful! There is danger. ”

Shen Cheng was stunned and subconsciously wanted to turn back. But before he could turn around and ask Wei Yi, there was a sudden and extremely strong sense of shock in the air.

Shen Cheng was taken aback. He didn't even think about it, and his body reflexively jerked back.

At this moment, Wei Yi suddenly saw that those bloated fruits suddenly burst open on their own. As they exploded, there were bursts of strong oscillations in the air.

The shock fluctuations were concentrated at one point, and they quickly pursued Shen Cheng, who was rapidly retreating. Shen Cheng only felt as if he weighed tens of millions of catties, and suddenly pounced on him.

The oncoming air, at that moment, seemed to be all frozen. Shen Cheng felt that the air around him seemed to suddenly become viscous. The speed at which he retreated dropped sharply as a result.

The frozen air, along with the shock wave, quickly squeezed towards Shen Cheng. Shen Cheng was startled, and subconsciously lay on his back on the ground, narrowly avoiding the past.

The shock wave grazed Shen Cheng's body and quickly rushed towards the distance. And the direction it rushed in happened to be where Wei Yi was.

Shen Cheng lay on the ground, looked in the direction of the shock wave, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He saw Wei Yi standing stupidly in place, staring blankly ahead.

Shen Cheng saw that the shock wave was about to rush to Wei Yi, but Wei Yi didn't even realize it.

Shen Cheng was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he instantly broke out. He hurriedly shouted at Wei Yi: "Be careful! Get down! ”

Wei Yi couldn't see the invisible shockwave. He was staring at the crooked-necked tree, carefully remembering something. The shape of this tree is really weird. It is not like those potted plants, which grow crookedly but have a unique flavor, nor is it naturally carved by wind and snow, but has both traces of artificial carving and the imprint of natural grinding.

Its crooked body presents an irregular S-shape. The more Wei Yi looked at the end of its branches, the more he felt that it looked like a smashed trumpet. But the body of this trumpet is not round, but slightly square.

Wei Yi saw that on its slightly square trunk, there seemed to be some patterns carved into it. Those patterns reminded him faintly of the information from ancient times that he had seen in the turbulence of time and space.

At that time, he was swept into the past time and space by the turbulence of time and space, and he almost couldn't come back. It was at that time that he saw a scene that he would never forget. He saw many primitively dressed people, worshipping the hateful bloodthirsty vine. And not far from the bloodthirsty vine, he saw several crooked-neck trees.

The crooked-necked trees looked almost exactly like the ones he saw now. Even their curved shapes are almost identical.

Wei Yi was recalling the information of those crooked neck trees, and suddenly heard Shen Cheng's shout, and was stunned for a moment, and suddenly came back to his senses. He was about to fall to the ground when he suddenly felt the air around him as thick as a pulp, holding him firmly there, unable to move.

Wei Yi was startled, and he struggled desperately to get rid of this restraint. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't escape. Seeing that, the invisible shock wave was about to hit Wei Wei's body. The shadow of death once again quickly enveloped Wei Yi's heart.
