In the early morning, as the sun shines, wisps of smoke rise in a village on the edge of the forest, adding a sense of peace to the quiet village.

"I'll go into the mountains to chop some firewood, mother~!You have more rest at home, don't be tired anymore, and I'll come back when I cut firewood for money, buy some food." A young man of about sixteen or seventeen years of age, with a black face and a machete in his hand, a bow on his shoulder, and an quiver at his waist, shouted into the house and prepared to leave the village.

"Wait~ Pairs! You bring this 'heart stone', if there is something you can immediately call for help through the 'heart stone', your mother can immediately notify, the hunters in the village will save you, the mountains have not been peaceful recently, there are always people missing for no reason, your mother is really worried about you. A middle-aged woman hurried out of the house, holding a piece of jade with an extremely smooth surface.

"Oh, okay~!Mother, don't worry, my archery skills are among the best in the village, you don't have to worry about me. "The boy took the 'heart stone', carried it in his arms, let his mother into the house again, and then went out of the house and walked towards the forest at the edge of the village.

"Be careful on the road~Pair~!" his mother still walked out of the house uneasily, and urged the young man's back as he walked away.

"Okay, I'll be careful, don't worry~!" The young man's figure gradually disappeared into the woods.

"What's wrong with me? It's always weird in my heart, my heart is beating so badly. The boy's mother rubbed her chest and said to herself, "Hope Pair~, it'll be fine." ”

After the boy entered the forest, he didn't dare to go too far, he also knew that there was something abnormal in the forest recently, a few villagers half a month ago, after entering the mountain forest, they have not come out, and the village has also organized the villagers to look for it together, but there is no trace of it to be found, as if it disappeared out of thin air.

The boy was chopping wood, and he looked carefully from side to side in case a wild beast suddenly appeared, and suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a green thing, which disappeared from his side, and the boy immediately turned to check, but it was empty.

The young man frowned, tightened the sharp wood knife in his hand with his hand, and turned around to continue chopping wood. At this time, the green light flew past him again, and the young man's eyes were quick, and he immediately slashed at the green light with a knife.

With an extremely elegant and flexible attitude, the light cluster flashed past the firewood knife that the boy had chopped and flew into the sky above the boy. The young man immediately looked up and looked carefully, and found that it was a butterfly that looked very much like a human, and the young man's face was happy, "Ha~! ”

The boy immediately pinned the knife to his waist, took off his bow and arrows, and put them on the string and aimed them at the butterfly, intending to shoot him so that he could capture him and sell it for money and buy food in the market. "It's worth living to be alive, and this little thing has a strong ability to heal itself, as long as you don't shoot it, it'll be fine. ”

The young man's arrow, with the butterfly man constantly flying in the air, kept aiming back and forth, "Huh~!", the tip of the arrow grazed the butterfly man's waist and flashed, and a few drops of green liquid immediately dripped down.

The butterfly man immediately covered his waist with his hands, turned around and fled towards the depths of the woods, "You still want to run?!" The young man was unwilling to fly away from the prey in his hand, and immediately chased after the butterfly man with a bow and arrow. The butterfly man is in front of him, flying up and down, as if he will fall at any moment.

When the boy saw that the butterfly man was trying to flee, he expected that he would not fly long before he would fall, so he kept chasing after him, but he did not dare to shoot his bow and arrows again, for fear that if he shot the butterfly man, it would no longer be valuable.

The speed of the butterfly man's flight is getting slower and slower, and when the boy is about to catch the butterfly man, there are several big trees with extremely dense leaves in front of him, and the young man is afraid that the butterfly man will not be able to find it in the bushes, so he immediately sped up his pace and pounced on the butterfly man in the air, but the butterfly man was in the air, and he dodged very flexibly, and suddenly got into the big tree with dense leaves, and disappeared.

The young man got up and glanced back at the distance he had come, he was already in the depths of the forest at this time, but he was still unwilling in his heart, "Hey~! It's already here, let's go find the butterfly man, it is estimated that it won't fly far, if you can find it, the money you can sell, maybe you can buy a box of alabaster for your mother, and your mother's hands are frozen and cracked." ”

The boy put the bow and arrow back on his back, held the firewood knife at his waist firmly in his hand, and cautiously burrowed into the dense woods.

"Where? It should be nearby. The boy kept searching his surroundings.

At this time, the young man suddenly saw a big tree not far in front of him, flashing a lot of green light, the young man was curious, so he walked towards the big tree, and when he got closer, the young man was stunned. There were nearly 100 butterfly people in the tree, but they were locked in cages like birdcages.

And the butterfly man who was shot and injured by himself just now was outside one of the cages, crying incessantly to one of the butterfly people in the cage.

"Who caught this? If you sell all these butterflies, you won't have to buy food for at least ten years. The boy sighed.

"Hey~!anyone?!" the boy shouted.

"Hey~?, is there anyone?" the boy shouted a few more times, but there was only an echo around, but no one answered.

"It's strange, why can't you see people when you catch so many butterfly people here?" the young man wondered.

"There are so many butterflies, if I take one or two, he won't know. As~...... My mother said that it is not her own, you can't take it casually, otherwise it will be stolen, even if you are poor, you must be poor and have backbone. ”

The boy gritted his teeth and glanced at the tree, crying while holding a cage, and the butterfly man who was wounded by himself stomped his foot fiercely, and had to turn away, otherwise someone would think that he was trying to steal something.

But as soon as the young man turned around, behind the tree, there was a strange sound of "Sha ~ Sha ~ Swish ~ Whoosh ~!", "Hey~!, is there anyone?" The young man was suspicious, tightened the firewood knife in his hand, and then went around the big tree and looked behind the big tree, "Sha ~ Sha ~ Whoosh ~ Whoosh~!" The voice sounded again, the young man felt a little scared in his heart, holding the knife in both hands, and moved to the back of the tree step by step, "Hey~!Who is it?Come out quickly, otherwise I will throw the knife over, come out quickly~!"

The unfamiliar environment and strange events made the teenager really break out in a cold sweat. "Hey~!Who the hell is it, come out quickly. ”

The boy stared at the back of the tree, moving forward one by one. For fear that some beast would suddenly come out and attack him. At this moment, behind the young man, there was a sudden sound of "sand ~ sand ~ swish ~ whoosh~!", the young man was taken aback and immediately looked back, only to see that there was a bush behind him for no reason, and the young man carefully used a firewood knife to poke into the bushes.

The boy used a firewood knife to search back and forth among the bushes, and did not find any abnormality, and when he was about to withdraw the knife, who knew that the bushes suddenly rose up from the ground, as if a person was hiding in it, and pounced on the boy, the boy reacted very quickly, "Oh~噌~" took a few steps back, and immediately turned sideways to get out.

Immediately afterwards, the man who was hidden in the bushes, "Whoosh~whoosh~!" between his arms, shot out two rattans, and quickly wrapped around the boy.

The boy frowned, blocked the rattan with a firewood knife, and shouted to the bushes, "Who? who is hiding in it? I have no heart to play with you." ”

The man who was hidden in the bushes did not answer, and then pounced on the young man, who did not dare to hesitate and dodged, and retreated to the side, "Hey~!, who are you, if you don't speak, I will cut you." ”

By this time, the boy had retreated to the tree where the cages of the butterfly people were hung. Behind the tree where the sound of "sand ~ sand ~ swish~swish~!" came out of the previous "poof", and another person who was hidden in the bushes took advantage of the young man's unnoticed attention and held the young man in his arms.

The young man was angry, and immediately struggled, the firewood knife in his hand waved back and forth, and slashed at the person opposite, with the firewood knife, the firewood knife instantly submerged, and the man's chest was stunned for a moment, and the young man's body immediately froze, "I~I~I kill~?!I didn't mean to." ”

However, the person on the other side, who was hidden in the bushes, did not shed any blood, and his body shook a few times, and the firewood knife fell out of his body and fell to the ground.

The young man looked at the firewood knife on the ground, and then at the humanoid bush in front of him, he didn't understand why the people on the other side were pierced by himself, how could they still be unharmed?

At this time, the boy felt a wave of fear and despair, regretting that he had run to the depths of the forest for the sake of a butterfly man and encountered such a strange thing.

"Be careful, keep your head down. A voice suddenly sounded in the young man's ears, the young man subconsciously obeyed the voice, tried his best to lower his head, a black and shiny light, from the top of the young man's head, hidden into the humanoid shrub behind him, the body of the humanoid shrub, was immediately split in two, but the shrub was still holding the young man's body, and he never let go.

The black light reappeared on both sides of the boy's body, slashing off the bush arm that was entangled in the boy, causing the boy to break free with all his might. Before the boy could see who had appeared, he saw a figure holding a black light and cutting down the humanoid bush opposite the boy to the ground.

The figure immediately turned around, pulled up the boy and ran, just two steps away and immediately stopped, shouting at the tree: "Hey~! That wood elf, come with me, I will save them." ”

When the butterfly man heard the stranger's words, he immediately turned to look at him, and the man shouted, "If you want to save them, run with me." ”

The butterfly man looked back again, and the other butterfly man in the cage immediately followed the figure of the person as soon as he gritted his teeth and disappeared into the woods together.

The two of them ran all the way through the woods, not daring to stop. When he reached the edge of the woods, he slowed down and sat down under a tree, gasping for breath.

"Hi~!~... Just now... Thank you... You~!I~I~ My name is Wen Zhishuang. What about you?" the boy gasped and thanked the figure that had suddenly appeared.

"Huh~Huh~Huh~!Ah~Huh~!" The figure adjusted his breath at a very fast speed, "I~?uh, my name is Tianxing~!You don't have to thank me, in fact, those two things just now were tracking me, and I have been tracking them just now, we are tracking back and forth, but unfortunately I got you involved." Okay, it's okay now, you go home, remember not to come out when you're idle, and don't come out when you're hiding in the village. ”

"Uh, Tianxing~!, but what are those two monsters? My knife obviously hit them, why is it useless?" Wen Zhishuang asked strangely.

"What do you think?

"Someone is kidding me, right?" Wen Zhishuang couldn't believe it, how could two extremely ordinary bushes suddenly come alive and attack people?

"Well, you're smart. It's right to guess, someone is joking, okay, go back, don't come out again. Not wanting to explain more, Tianxing waved his hand and motioned for him to leave quickly.

"Hey~!, what the hell is that?" Wen Zhishuang asked unwillingly.

Tianxing hesitated, "Actually, they are just ordinary plants, but they are manipulated and controlled by a kind of spiritual consciousness, as long as you can see ~ like the plants and trees around us, they can actually be controlled." Okay, go away, go home, and don't go into the depths of the forest again. ”

Tianxing stood up and looked at the butterfly man who landed on the tree: "Hey~!, you wood elf, come with me, I have something to ask you." ”

Tianxing left Wen Zhishuang behind, and without further ado, he turned around and burrowed into the woods next to him, and the butterfly man hesitated for a moment, then followed.

Wen Zhishuang was beside him, staring at Tianxing all the time, his heart was full of doubts, and at the moment when he was about to enter the woods and his figure disappeared, he found that the black light that had just defeated the two humanoid shrubs was actually a swarthy wooden knife~!
