Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Ghost Medicine Cicada

Slowly, the two of them walked for about an hour, and Chen Lei grabbed Tang Yan and carefully investigated the surroundings.

"Well, I see, this cicada is really a clever medicinal herb, you see, this is the mark I made on the trunk, an hour of time, the two of us have returned to the original starting point, so, I feel that the cicada is not actually in the direction of your feeling, but in the middle of the circle we walked. Your so-called induction is the energy fluctuations emitted by the herb itself, which radiates its own energy fluctuations to the surroundings, and then constantly changes the position of the strongest energy point to avoid the feelings of some people. Chen Lei analyzed at Tang Yan.

"Uh, there is such a clever medicinal herb, this ability is probably beyond the scope of medicinal herbs. Tang Yan was extremely surprised when she heard Chen Lei's words, after all, she had never seen such medicinal materials since she was a child.

"Hehe, the world is so big, even if it is a plant, it also has its own life, its own adaptation and change to the environment, the cicada may also be in order to deal with the people who are looking for themselves, so it has evolved such an ability, there is nothing to be surprised about, let's go to the middle to find it." Chen Lei explained to Tang Yan, and then took the lead and walked towards the middle, this rare medicinal material usually has more or less guarding animals, so Chen Lei took the first step.

The two of them slowly searched in the circle, constantly narrowing the scope of the central area, and slowly the two finally locked on to a huge ancient tree. Chen Lei raised his head and roughly estimated that this ancient tree must be dozens of meters high, and the branches of different shapes were scattered everywhere, covering a radius of nearly 100 square meters.

"You find a place to hide, and I'll go up and have a look. Chen Lei searched with his eyes for a while, but found nothing, so he could only shake his head helplessly, ready to go up the tree to have a look. Seeing Tang Yan walk back for a distance of about ten meters, Chen Lei took a few steps back, jumped up in a sprint, grabbed towards a main trunk on the tree, and then straightened his waist and kept running up with the help of the inertia of his body, and turned sideways a few times, Chen Lei finally stabilized his body in the middle of the ancient tree, and looked around.

Looking around, finally during the third search, Chen Lei found that the north branch had a main branch, which was slightly thicker than the others. Chen Lei slowly moved his footsteps in that direction, and when he was about half the distance, an accident suddenly happened, and the branch where Chen Lei was suddenly broke off. Chen Lei was startled at first, then immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed a trunk next to him, and then pulled his body up.

"What the hell, my weight can't crush that trunk, there's a situation!" Chen Lei said loudly, and then became fully alert. But there was silence all around, not the slightest sound was made, and no moving objects were seen. Chen Lei stayed for about five minutes, and tried to walk towards the position of the cicada, but before he could take a few steps, the branch under Chen Lei's feet broke again.

"Holy. What the hell is this?" shouted loudly Chen Lei grabbed the branches around him, but when he was about to grab a branch, the branch was inexplicably raised, making Chen Lei grab a little empty, and then Chen Lei fell down to the tree, fortunately, Chen Lei wittily stepped on another branch, jumped up, and then hugged the thick trunk of the ancient tree tightly, Chen Lei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly felt a little wrong.

Suddenly, a few branches whipped towards Chen Lei. "Damn, what is this, is this ancient tree refined?" Chen Lei was startled, and then suddenly jumped up left and right on the ancient tree, more than a dozen branches continued to whip towards Chen Lei, and a few tried to wrap around Chen Lei's body. Chen Lei dodged while quickly moving in the direction of the cicada.

After trying a few times, every time Chen Lei was about to reach the branch of the cicada, the number of branches would always increase rapidly, blocking all of Chen Lei's forward routes, and then forcing Chen Lei back with a pump, Chen Lei also tried to carry it a few times, only to feel that his body was hit by a huge force, and he was almost not pulled out, so he didn't dare to carry those branches, so he could only think about countermeasures between constant dodging.

"Damn, I brought * with me if I knew it, but now there is no way to do it, these branches are still very tough, and there is no way for fists to cause substantial damage to these branches, what should I do. Chen Lei pondered hard as he kept moving around the position of the cicada, like a nimble monkey. In the end, Chen Lei finally had nothing to do, shook his head helplessly and no longer insisted, and could only fall towards the ground.

"Hey, this tree should have been influenced by the cicada, and at the same time has a certain spirituality, and has learned to protect itself, I have no way to touch the main branch where the cicada is located, do you have any way?" Chen Lei fell to the ground and asked loudly towards Tang Yan.

Tang Yan also saw Chen Lei's situation on the tree just now, but she felt extremely surprised, it turned out that there were really so many magical things in this world, and she didn't think about Chen Lei's words at all, so she could only shake her head helplessly. Seeing this, Chen Lei also knew that he couldn't count on Tang Yan to give any good advice, so he could only use the most primitive method to take * in his hand, and rushed towards the tree again with a few steps.

Swinging a knife to cut off a branch drawn from the face, fortunately, this tree is not very affected by the cicada, only knows how to instinctively defend, and will not take the initiative to pursue, which makes Chen Lei a lot easier, as long as he is not very close to the position of the cicada, the branch will not whip over, so Chen Lei kept circling around the location of the cicada, confusing the perception of the ancient tree.

After going around a few times, taking advantage of the moment when the branches were relaxed, Chen Lei suddenly launched an impact towards the position of the cicada, and suddenly shortened the distance between himself and the cicada a lot, and the ancient tree suddenly reflected, dozens of branches blocked towards Chen Lei, Chen Lei kept waving the * in his hand* At the same time, with the help of the whipped branches, his feet kept stepping on the branches and jumping, slowly getting closer and closer to the position of the cicada, and finally after cutting off dozens of branches, Chen Lei jumped next to the cicada and cut down fiercely towards the thicker place.

Suddenly, those whipped branches suddenly made a trembling movement like a human, and Chen Lei cut down with a knife, cutting off the branch where the cicada was located from the ancient tree, and then stepped on it, following the branch and falling to the ground.
