Chapter 20: The Fairy Tale Girl

After crossing a certain invisible boundary, there were obviously fewer poisonous insects and monsters, and all kinds of roars and screams were also far behind him, and An Xiaoqi was shocked again by what he saw.

The mixture of towering trees and mushrooms suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a strange mushroom species. The creature is mushroom-shaped, with an umbrella and a stalk, but the mushroom stalk is wrapped in a layer of bark, like a hybrid of a tree and a mushroom. In front of you is a forest made up entirely of new tree mushrooms. From the smallest mushrooms the size of human food, to the mushrooms like benches, to the size of the table, the size of the house, all the way to the super-large mushrooms dozens of meters above the ground and a crown of 100 meters, scattered and overlapped in the forest, forming a three-dimensional space, as if there is a mushroom paradise in a fairy tale.

Different from the outside, the mushroom bark here is pink, and it looks particularly soft and beautiful against the background of some glowing moss, a few light insects fly colorful on the mushrooms, and a few small beasts shuttle and jump in the mushroom forest, showing a strange life force.

Using a sword to pry open a thin layer of skin, revealing a light red tender mushroom meat, An Xiaoqi remembered that in a fairy tale book, a certain girl hollowed out a hole in the mushroom, and then lived in it, and when she was hungry, she dug up a piece and took it to eat. What can't be done in reality, in this other world, it seems that it can be easily done, so I thought about it right now, and set the first foothold here.

Xiao Qi suddenly became a little childlike, he tucked his robe tightly, the long sword hung on his waist, and he climbed up with his hands and feet. After walking a few floors tentatively, he found that the lids of these pale red tree mushrooms were very large, and they were also extremely strong, and they had a super heavy carrying capacity, so there was no danger of safety, so his confidence was greatly increased, and he ran and jumped and continued to go up. After several sprints and climbing, staggered upwards layer by layer, half an hour later, a huge mushroom handle that could not be embraced by more than a dozen people stood in front of An Xiaoqi's eyes like an optimus giant pillar, and the huge umbrella cover blocked all his vision. The glowing moss attached to the canopy emitted a soft reddish light, pulling out a long shadow of An Xiaoqi, who was holding his legs and panting for breath.

"The last one, Huhu....the tallest ..... Everest mushroom, Huhu, wait for me to climb up!"

After resting for a while, An Xiaoqi finally found a good place to climb, and worked hard to climb up, and when he landed, a sense of pride came to his heart, and then he said something extremely deflating.

"I'd better keep my home underneath. ”

The giant mushroom umbrella is extremely large, about the size of half a football field. The ground is relatively flat, and there is also moss attached to it. Standing here, it's like standing on a high peak! The strong wind blew quite violently with a slight fishy smell, blowing An Xiaoqi's hair flying, and the heat in the forest was suddenly replaced by a chill. Xiao Qi wrapped his robe tightly, put on the cloak behind the robe, and walked around it with his sword. After walking for a while, I found a puddle, two bird nests, and a number of guano moss insects. Unwillingly, he walked to the edge of the mushroom and looked at the ground along the hard corners of the mushroom surface. In the whirring wind, I saw that the scenery below was only a faint glimmer, and the mushroom group that looked like a house just now was no longer clear.

It's too high, the wind is so strong, and your feet are so soft when you look down.....

When he walked somewhere, his footsteps suddenly stopped—the miracle he was hoping for in his heart appeared! Hundreds of meters below, on the top of the umbrella of a certain tree mushroom in the middle level, a flame was beating. The light was a hundred times brighter than the millilight of the moss, and under the dazzling light, a small black shadow was reflected beside it.

The back of the sword that An Xiaoqi held slammed into the back of the heavy mushroom, intersecting with the hard thick skin, and making a muffled sound: he was so excited - there is fire there, there are people, there must be intelligent creatures!

At last I saw the living.

"Hey, the one over there, look here, can't you hear it? The one on the other side looks, looks, the mountain road here has eighteen bends!"

Holding his long sword and dancing and shouting and singing, he was so excited that he almost stepped on the air and fell from a height of more than 100 meters! Unfortunately, the sound only floated out not far before it was blown away by the night wind. The shadow in front of the flames remained motionless, apparently unheard.

It's easy to see people, if you miss it, you don't know when you will meet it again! An Xiaoqi didn't dare to slack off, returned the same way from the edge of the giant mushroom, and followed the direction of memory in the direction of the firelight.

Walking quickly on the back of a slippery mushroom is actually quite dangerous, especially if you are in the air at an altitude of tens or hundreds of meters. Therefore, the speed of 'going down the mountain' did not dare to go too fast, and it took twice as long as the time to get to the level of the platform where the firelight was, and it took almost as much time for him to walk to the left of the fire, letting the distant firelight shine on his body.

It is a dense mushroom growing area, and mushrooms grow on top of the mushrooms, forming a complex architectural shape. If it weren't for An Xiaoqi's special observation angle, he wouldn't have been able to see this flame clearly—he stood on the outermost part of the firelight, almost the place where it was separated from the darkness, and looked at the black shadow next to the flame.

From An Xiaoqi's line of sight: dozens of meters away, a thin silhouette, holding her legs, curled up and sitting on the top of the mushroom, vaguely a girl. The firelight reflected a beautiful silhouette on the mushroom stalk behind her.

When it came to the end, An Xiaoqi calmed down from the excitement, remembered the strange suicide before, and remembered the scars on the body of the woman who committed suicide. The other world is not a world of peace and morality. In the absence of being able to tell whether the other person is hostile or even intelligent or not, it is too stupid to show one's body at will.

Just like Liu Dashen expounded in the law of the dark forest, every civilization is a hunter sneaking in the dark forest, and everyone is both a hunter and a prey at the same time, and they must move forward carefully; once they are discovered by a hidden opponent, then the choice of 98K or SCAR has to be given to the other party. If you don't have the backing of the first three levels of the first three grades, you will have to become a box.

An Xiaoqi's contact with the figure in front of him was not the case. He is alone now, he doesn't have many chips to pay, and if he makes a mistake at any time, he may be doomed, so it's always good to be careful.

Walking cautiously around the edge illuminated by the firelight, he looked into more things: it was indeed a girl sitting with her legs crossed, she wore a bright pink hat, her head was lowered, and judging from her fair face, she should not be very old. Her clothes are surprisingly shabby, and the material looks similar to the rural woven bag An Xiaoqi used to hold sweet potatoes before. Her body was tattered and had several large holes, revealing a lot of skin on the back of her arms, and further down, she was unshoeed, with a pair of small gray feet exposed, and finally focused on the pants in the middle, which were worn but rotten. The curled up trouser leg is rotten from the lower half of the crotch, leaving only raw edges, revealing most of the youthful and beautiful thighs and entire calves, red and cute in the firelight.

This girl's beggar outfit can't help but make An Xiaoqi puzzling. Judging from the clothes, this girl should be a commoner, even a poor person, but the gorgeous hat on her head is not like a commoner can afford, and if it were on earth, it would not be difficult to change this hat into decent clothes. Could it be that the hats are very cheap here, or is it like India, where you are so poor that you don't have to eat or drink to get a sari? If so, the custom is peculiar.

The brim of the woman's hat drooped in the wind, and the regular snoring could be heard in the distance, which, combined with her delicate form, did not resemble a vicious species. An Xiaoqi relieved himself and walked out calmly, until she stood still by the fire, and the girl was still not awake.

Standing closer, it became clearer: the little hat on the girl's head was in the same shape as the mushroom she was used to seeing along the way! it was also in the shape of a disc, and it was also pink. The surface of the hat reflected a brilliant brilliance under the light of the fire, which looked as soft and smooth as silk, and An Xiaoqi was amazed to see it, and almost reached out to touch it.

After thinking about it again, I was relieved: this must be the aboriginal of the mushroom forest. In this environment, it is normal to produce a mushroom god cult and engage in mushroom worship. Wearing a mushroom hat is nothing compared to that.

After climbing the mountain for several hours, I felt only a bout of hunger in my stomach. So An Xiaoqi crossed the fire, randomly found a small mushroom attached to the back of the big mushroom, cut the bark on the surface, and cut off the pink tender flesh inside. After being busy for a while, he cut off a few catties of mushroom meat, returned to the fire, threw all the bark into the fire, and then skewered the mushroom meat with a sword, and grilled it like a lamb skewer.

After many days of raw mushrooms and raw meat, it can be regarded as cooked food! An Xiaoqi felt a little excited. The mushroom meat on the sword was roasted for a while, making a 'zizi' sound, the mushroom oil dripped down the sword body into the fire, the flame elves danced happily, and the strong fragrance drifted away, An Xiaoqi couldn't help but feel even more hungry. I couldn't bear it, I raised my sword, blew eagerly, grabbed a large piece, and didn't care about burning it, so I stuffed it into my mouth, followed by a violent chewing sound.

It's a mushroom, but it has the taste of meat, it's fresh and tender, and the best charcoal-grilled matsutake mushroom is nothing more than that. An Xiaoqi swallowed the oil and mushroom meat, took a few big bites, the calories rose from the lower abdomen, and the whole person was comfortable. In his spare time, his eyes fell on the girl opposite, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.

"In the wilderness, lonely men and widows, the so-called heaven should not be, the earth is not spiritual, the other party is a delicate girl, I am a flesh man, and there is a sword in the key hand, let people follow this plot down, hahahaha...."

An Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows with a pretended evil gaze and looked at the other side, like a landlord who had occupied the daughter of a long-term worker. Of course, as a time-tested warrior and a two-time winner of the title of Outstanding Worker, he can't do anything bad if he really wants to. However, after all, it is a generation that grew up under the influence of Dongying action movies, and it is inevitable to make a cameo appearance as a director and starring in my heart.

The girl on the other side stopped snoring, and the brim of her hat moved slightly, as if she was about to wake up. An Xiaoqi quickly put away his playful expression, put on his usual normal expression, thought about it, and quickly pulled up his cloak and hat, covering all his head and face - his facial characteristics may not be the same as those of the other world, so he should first explore the appearance of the other side.

"Huh, so fragrant, beef mushrooms?" came an unknown voice. The voice is low, and the vocal cords vibrate extremely strongly, giving people the feeling of being in the wilderness, like that of someone who has not drunk water for several days.

An Xiaoqi was stunned, he could be sure that the language spoken by the other party was definitely something he had never heard, but he could clearly understand its meaning. After thinking about it for a while, it suddenly dawned on him that this was the benefit of the Nameless Exercises, another of the two golden fingers: his heart was clear.

The girl raised her head, revealing a delicate little face. She glanced at An Xiaoqi, the trance expression that had just woken up suddenly disappeared, her pupils contracted violently, she jumped back a few steps very quickly, took out a slingshot from the side of her waist, got on the stone, and faced An Xiaoqi.

"Who are you, what are you doing?" her voice was much brighter in horror.

The girl's series of movements rose and fell, both coherent and swift, with a strong gust of wind in between, showing a strong physique that did not match her size. It's just that as a single 'weak female streamer', the girl's reaction did not surprise An Xiaoqi.

An Xiaoqi does not know the other party's language, and he thinks that the other party must not understand Chinese. I had to pretend to be dumb and enable the universal language of action. He sat cross-legged and stood still, pointing to the mushroom on his sword, tearing off a piece and chewing it, and rubbing his stomach again, indicating that it was for eating. Then he put his sword aside, folded his hands and made a bow gesture to the girl in thanks. After a set of movements, I don't know if the girl understands it.

It turns out that this trick still works. Although the girl still had a suspicious expression, she still took two steps towards An Xiaoqi's side, and the tight slingshot was loosened a little. Her eyes were half-squinted, their cold eyes piercing through the flames, as if trying to see through the cloaked man's reality.

"Are you male or female, human or ours?" the girl still looked cautious.

An Xiaoqi chuckled in his heart, what did this question reveal? You are not a human being? What the hell is that? Restrained from taking the long sword in his hand, his mind was racing, but he did not move at all. Fortunately, the previous foundation is still there, and after having the nameless exercises, it is even more miraculous, and the memory is quite good. Reverse the meaning of the word with the meaning, easily learn the word 'my clan' that the girl said, imitate it in my heart, and find that I can pronounce this sound.

The vocalizations of this language are rather bizarre, and the origin of the vocalizations is in the deeper part of the earthlings' vocal cords, so it is more deep and deep. An Xiaoqi was amazed by the strength of 'his clear heart', and also tried to keep his voice low, exhaled and said vaguely: "My clan." ”

As An Xiaoqi answered, the girl's expression relaxed, put the slingshot into the belt around her waist, and sat back on the fire. The relationship that had just been tense was inexplicably eased, and the girl didn't see An Xiaoqi either, so she told him that she also tore off a large piece of mushroom meat and ate it. An Xiaoqi took the opportunity to look at her from the cloak.
