Chapter 88: Fairy Tale Forest (34) Carved pocket watch

The second wall of thorns was opened with the staff, and a group of eight of us continued on our way. Probably because the staff exists as a game item for a book, after opening the Wall of Thorns, it did not disappear like Little Red Riding Hood's cloak before, but revealed its appearance in everyone's eyes. In other words, after opening the Thorn Wall, they could also see and touch the staff.

This is actually a good thing, they can touch it, which means that if you really need to summon the Cannibal Flower with a staff, then the 2000ml of blood needed to summon it doesn't need to be all by me and the wolffangs. If 2,000 milliliters are divided equally among eight people, each person is only 250 milliliters, which is equivalent to the amount of blood donated at one time. Uh, though that's not a nice number.

"Do you want to move on? Or wait a day? Looking for this fairy tale character at this time tomorrow? I asked the wolf fangs cautiously.

I don't know if I'm too sensitive, but since I've seen the mirror image of the wolf's fang, the wolf's mood hasn't seemed to be good. I can probably understand why he is like this, after all, for Wolf Fang, every bit of information related to himself is precious. Perhaps he was also looking forward to getting some information about himself from the magic mirror, but he didn't find anything.

But I always feel a little strange, according to Wolf Fang, he should have lost his memory for some reason, however, just if he lost his memory, his true self should not have changed, how could he not have his true self?

I thought about it carefully, but I still couldn't understand what was going on, and in the end I had to give up and keep the question in my heart, along with the mirror image of the others. To fully understand this, I'm afraid I'll need to know a little bit more about them to understand what those mirrors represent.

"Keep going, there's no use stopping here." "We're all completely unfamiliar with the environment, and there may be dangers that don't come from fairy tales, so it's safest to find the key as soon as possible, and then go back to the tree and open the door." ”

That's right! That huge tree!

Wolf Fang's words reminded me that after all this rush, I almost forgot my previous guess. Stood still, looked back, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The tree could still be seen in the darkness, still so tall and still so far away, just as it had been last time I had noticed it, the first time I had noticed it.

I raised my hand a little tremblingly, comparing the size of the giant tree in my field of vision in the same way as before, but I found that it was still so big that it had not changed in my field of vision.

"Wolf fangs?" I called out to the wolffangs, my voice a little hoarse from shock, "That tree that tree is a little weird"

"What?" Wolffang asked suspiciously, hearing my words, and turned to look at the tree in the distance, "Is there a problem?" ”

Hearing the conversation between the two of us, the others also stood still, and Fang Ruoxi's voice came with doubts.

"Strange? What's weird? Isn't it still what we saw before? ”

"It's because its size hasn't changed."

When I was about to explain, Yu Pu spoke first. I looked at him in shock and incredulity, I thought that I was the only one who found it, so I could still suspect that it was my delusion, but if Yu Pu also found out, it would prove that the tree was strange!

"You found out too?" I confirmed to Yu Pu, "I have compared it by reference, and it really hasn't changed!" It's always so big in the field of view! ”

Yu Pu nodded, "Your feelings should be right, I can confirm it." ”

"Haven't changed in your field of vision?" Wolffang frowned and repeated, "That should mean we're always at the same distance from it, right?" But we're walking in a straight line, when did you find out? When we first left under the tree? Or when? ”

"I didn't find it before, it was from Mo Li's reaction that I found out that there seemed to be something wrong with it, and I observed it a few times before I confirmed it." Yu Pu replied, "The first person to find out should be Mo Li, you better ask her." ”

"I can't tell you how far I walked the first time I saw it, probably just out of the dark part of the forest, and when I walked into the sunny forest, I took the first look at the tree, and the tree has always been so big in my eyes, and it hasn't changed." I tried to remember the scene and wished I could describe it more accurately.

Wolf Fang frowned, pondered for a moment before replying, "Maybe it's just the setting of distance here, maybe it's different in our perception, just like there is no sun here, but it's sunny, day and night, there shouldn't be any special problems, but you can continue to pay attention, if there is nothing else weird about that tree, it shouldn't be a big deal." ”

I frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, but I couldn't say what was wrong, so I had to put my doubts down for the time being, and secretly decided to continue to pay attention to whether there were any other problems with the giant tree. But maybe I'm too sensitive, this isn't the real world in the first place, and I may be a little bit of a soldier.

"So, there's no other problem, just follow what I said before, let's move on." Wolf Fang made a decision and took a new step forward, "The third fairy tale character only appears at night, so be careful, and when the thorn fences on both sides disappear, new fairy tale characters may appear at any time." ”

After the wolf tooth finished speaking, he turned his head to me and said, "Pay attention to what the third fairy tale is, although it is not completely according to the fairy tale here, but you can still get some hints from the fairy tale." ”

"Well, I don't need to tell you that I know." I pouted, "It's just that if it only happened at night, I can't think of any fairy tale like this." ”

"It's a pity that I don't know the current time, I don't have the habit of wearing a watch, and the only people who can see the time at home are mobile phones and computers, but I don't leave after the time stops." I casually complained to Wolffang, "At least you need to know what time it is, right?" So that we know how long it will be and how much time we have. ”

Lin Ya heard our conversation and interjected, "I do have a few watches, but they are useless after the time stops, so I didn't bring them." ”

"I know."

Hearing Yu Pu's voice, I subconsciously turned my head to look at him, "Do you know the time now?" I mean exactly, what time it is, not at night, I know that. ”

Could it be that the Great Divine Man could still tell the specific time by the shadow of the tree? I subconsciously glanced at the trees on the side of the road, but at this time we were still in the middle of a section with thorny fences, such a section seemed to have no light, and there was no shadow of the leaves on both sides.

"Indeed, judging by the shadow of a tree."

Hearing Yu Pu's voice again, my eyes widened in shock. I, I, I, I didn't say it just now, huh? Could it be that he can also read minds?

"I'm majoring in psychology, and I do know a little bit about mind reading, but it's not as magical as described in film and television works." Yu Pu seemed to be able to really hear my heart, and said expressionlessly, "Generally, you can only vaguely guess the general thoughts, but yours is so easy to guess, everything is written on your face." ”

I listened to Yu Pu's words and looked at his face carefully, still expressionless, but how could I feel full of ridicule and contempt

"To get back to the point, I know the time, maybe it's not very accurate, but the error shouldn't be more than an hour." Yu Pu said, took something out of the jacket pocket of his suit, looked left and right at the three of us, and handed it to me.

"Pocket watch?" I took what Yu Pu had in his hand, and then I realized that it was a pocket watch.

A very beautiful watch, classical carved style, touch it with your fingers, you can feel that the carving of this pattern is very delicate. Looking at the shape, it's the old-fashioned type that needs to be wound every day. It should have been some years, and holding it in your hand gives you a thick and deep sense of history.

Thinking about it, in this year, how can anyone use a pocket watch, and seeing Yu Pu take out a pocket watch really surprised me.

I fumbled and opened the cover, it was an old thing, and it didn't have the current design of the luminescent hands, so in the dim darkness, I looked closer, and I couldn't see where the hands were.

"Hey, Lin"

"Eighty-forty-seven."

I just wanted to ask Lin Ya to find a lighter to borrow a lighter, but Wolf Fang also told me the time displayed on the pocket watch as if he had suddenly learned how to read minds. But the wolf's eyes are so dark, and he's farther away than me, so he can see clearly?

"This time should be used as a rough reference, I determined the time according to the moment when the shadow was the smallest at noon, and the moment was determined as twelve o'clock, and the error must be there, but it should have little impact."

Yu Pu explained, and I probably understood that this pocket watch did give an approximate time. After making sure that this time was useful, I thought about it for a while and handed the pocket watch back to Yu Pu. Although I really want to keep this kind of useful prop in my hand so that I can check the time at any time, this special and unique pocket watch, something that can be carried with me, I am afraid that it also has a special meaning for Yu Pu.

When Yu Pu handed it to me just now, he should have decided to put the pocket watch with me, but after all, it is something of special meaning to him, and if it is not necessary, it is better to let it stay with his master.

The action of me handing back the pocket watch seemed to be unexpected by Yu Pu, and he was stunned for a moment before saying, "Just put it with you." ”

Although Yu Pu was still expressionless when he spoke just now, I just felt that he was stunned for a moment. However, since Yu Pu said so, I didn't shirk it anymore, carefully tucked the pocket watch in the pocket of my coat, and deliberately closed the zipper.

"Be careful, the thorn fence is going to be gone."

The hint of the wolf's tooth came, and it turned out that while speaking, we had officially entered the scope of the third fairy tale.

What kind of fairy tale could it be, a fairy tale character who only appears at night?
