Chapter 127: Exploring the Lost Forest
The plot scene is very short, almost in a flash, and when the plot scene is over, the old woodcutter's body disappears in a raindrop, leaving only a few pieces of wood that have not been chopped off and lying on the ground.
Xiao Hua sighed, took the letter, let the raindrops fall on his face, and walked back to the lakeside.
When the evil Jiao heard the news of the old woodcutter's death, he did not show a look of ecstasy, but his huge body trembled slightly, looking at the old woodcutter's letter, two lines of tears actually flowed in the lantern's big eyes.
Xiao Hua looked at the words of the old woodcutter in the plot scene before, and he already felt very strange, and at this time, the performance of the evil Jiao made him even more confused.
"Brother Jiaolong, what's going on?" Xiao Hua couldn't help but ask.
"This is a long story, are you really interested in listening to it?" Evil Jiao heard Xiao Hua's question, and actually showed a very comfortable and peaceful expression.
"Of course, if you will!"
"Well, that was many years ago, let me think about it. ”
After that, the evil Jiao really closed his mouth, and thought for a while before continuing: "I was originally a human being, and I was cursed by the undead bone witch on the side of the Lost Forest more than ten years ago, and I became the appearance of this snake. It all started when I was a child. ”
............ Xiao Hua is walking towards the Lost Forest, and the mission ring has become the third ring, "Destroy the Undead Bone Witch"! The mission content is just as literally said, destroy the undead Bone Witch on the opposite side of the Lost Trace Forest.
This is not a simple task, Xiao Hua only sighed when he saw it, but he didn't have any way, in the words of Evil Jiao, if he wanted the Phantom Ring, he had to destroy the undead bone witch, otherwise it would never give the ring to anyone. Of course, the Phantom Ring is still being used by him as a quest item.
The story of Evil Jiao is a bit long, and Xiao Hua listened to it for a while before he understood the ins and outs of the whole thing. To put it simply, when he was a child, he was adopted by the old woodcutter after leaving the poor town where he was born and experiencing a desperate journey, and fell in love with another gentle, beautiful and considerate little girl adopted by the old woodcutter's family.
Seeing that the two were about to reach the age of marriage, one day, the evil Jiao, who was still a young man, left the village for a while, but when he came back, the whole village had undergone earth-shaking changes, and for some reason there was an undead bone witch in the village, and only the old woodcutter escaped in the whole village. Of course, the young man went to find out what had happened, but he didn't expect the old woodcutter to say a word, but just drove the young man out with a firewood knife.
The young man was at a loss, desperate to break into the other side of the Lost Forest, to find out, but in the end he was cursed by the undead bone witch, escaped back to the lake, as soon as he came into contact with the lake, he became a snake, and the young man lived in the lake as a snake for five or six years in the blink of an eye. In the boring days in the lake, young people gradually hate the old woodcutter on the one hand, and on the other hand, they often miss the good life of the past. And one day, when the young man thought that he would have to live in the lake for the rest of his life, the young man suddenly realized that he could turn back into human form at night and leave the lake, but only for an hour at most, and not too far from the lake.
Under the strong longing and loneliness, the young man secretly returned to the woods outside the wooden house, peeking at the old woodcutter's condition, only to find that the old woodcutter was also cursed by the undead bone witch, and he would have a seizure at night, and his surname became very irritable, and he kept slashing at the air with a firewood knife like crazy, and once the young man couldn't help but want to step forward to stop it, and was almost hacked to death by the old woodcutter!
The old woodcutter knew that the young man was the evil Jiao, but he didn't know why, he didn't come to talk to the evil Jiao during the normal daytime, until Xiao Hua took the letter to the evil Jiao, and the evil Jiao didn't know the reason.
The old woodcutter mentioned in the letter that the undead bone witch had actually been sealed in the altar used for worship in the village, and that day the old woodcutter and the young girl accidentally triggered the seal, and after the undead bone witch was released, he did not kill them, but just put a curse on them and trapped them around, and one day the young girl took the opportunity to help the old woodcutter escape, and the old woodcutter escaped alone, feeling that he had no face to see the young man, and felt guilty, so he never came to meet the young man.
As for the evil Jiao asked Xiao Hua to kill the old woodcutter, but the curse on the old woodcutter is getting stronger and stronger, these are coming, every night, the old woodcutter is under the curse, and every night he lives a life that is worse than death, the young man knows that the old woodcutter will not live long, and he wants to free him from the pain, but he can't be ruthless, until he meets Xiao Hua, he makes a ruthless decision.
And the old woodcutter also specifically mentioned in the letter that if there is no accident, the young girl will not die, as long as the death spirit witch is killed, the curse on the young man and the girl can be lifted and they can live a happy life.
The young man couldn't leave the lakeside, so the great responsibility of killing the Death Bone Witch naturally fell into Xiao Hua's hands.
It's a sore story.
Xiao Hua commented on the story while walking, and there was a forest of lost traces in front of him.
Xiao Hua is not ignorant of the Lost Forest, but what he knows, that is, a little bit, is not of much use, and it takes a lot of effort to reach the altar on the other side that has been occupied by the Undead Bone Witch through the Lost Forest.
Standing at the entrance of the six green passages of the Lost Forest, Xiao Hua decided to slowly explore the Lost Forest to ensure that he could pass through it safely.
At least can you kill the undead bone witch who feels like a BT when he hears the name, but Xiao Hua has the idea that even if he can't kill him, he has to steal it, after all, he has a secondary artifact ring in his hand, so he can't use it more.
"Then let's start at the first entrance on the left. ”
Summoned the illusion out, Xiao Hua let the illusion slowly walk into the passage on the left.
Controlling the illusion and sneaking over, Xiao Hua hoped in his heart that these spiked rattans entangled in the trees and forests would not be able to detect the illusion in the sneak, in this way, he would undoubtedly be able to greatly save the time of passing through the Lost Forest!
But things were not as rosy as he thought, and his illusions were quickly shattered, although he didn't know how those rattans found him, Xiao Hua was sure that he moved very carefully, and definitely didn't touch any objects, but he was still found by the rattans on the side.
After discovering the traces of the illusion, several rattans jumped out of the woods like springs, and wrapped themselves around the back of the illusion, Xiao Hua didn't have time to react, and the illusion's life of less than 1600hp reached the bottom in the blink of an eye, and then turned into white light.
His sister's, the grandmaster's stealth doesn't work, it's really troublesome!
Xiao Hua scratched his head in annoyance, so that he had several places to figure out. First of all, he had to figure out if these rattan attackers were attacking from a fixed location, if they were attacking from random locations, then he wanted to pass through the Lost Forest 100%, it was impossible!
After the skill cooled down, Xiao Hua controlled the illusion and walked over.
Phantasm!
It's still the first passage on the left, this time, when the illusion walked to the place where the previous accident happened, Xiao Hua let the illusion use the illusion skill, and after the illusion came out, he ordered the illusion to go over.
A phantom flashed out of the forest, and the illusion was instantly destroyed!
Xiao Hua breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the location of the rattan attack was still fixed, so fortunately, with the cooperation of the illusion and the illusion, at least he still had a lot of confidence to pass the rattan attack.
After the illusion was destroyed, the illusion immediately walked over, as Xiao Hua thought, the target of the rattan is single, as long as the target is killed, it will not continue to attack the characters passing in front of it for a certain period of time.
But the illusion only advanced three steps, Xiao Hua originally planned to stay away from the attack point, so as not to suffer after the attack cooldown of the rattan was over, but as a result, several rattans appeared next to the illusion, and he was killed again without preparation!
The two rattan attack points at such close range allowed Xiao Hua to learn a lesson, and using this as an experience, it was much easier to explore later. The illusion explores the path first, and the illusion follows behind, and when the illusion is destroyed by the rattan, the illusion immediately passes through the rattan attack, but at most it will not take two more steps, and then wait for the illusion skill to cool down, and then let the illusion go to explore the path to be cannon fodder.
For the first time, Xiao Hua felt that this illusion that had never worked had such an important role, if there was no illusion, even if there was an illusion, he might have wanted to pass through this forest of traces, even if he happened to pass, he would have to go through nine deaths, and it would take ten times more!
This is an extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming physical work, and fortunately Xiao Hua is used to these things, in the face of the unpredictable rattan attacks in the Lost Forest, he was careful not to make any mistakes, but despite this, it still took nearly three hours for Xiao Hua to figure out the first passage on the left.
Soon after entering the passage, there will be gradually forks in the road, these forks in the road, sometimes let you walk back to the same place, sometimes will make you come to a dead end, this is not bad, at least you can turn back, what is even more shameless is that sometimes there will be illusions, and when you walk over, you will find that there is a space several times wider than the passage, and there are green monsters like algae balls inside! After the character enters the inside, the exit will be sealed by rattan immediately, and it seems that the monster inside is not killed, but it is Sensei who came up with it.
And those green algae ball monsters inside are not easy to fool, the whole body is shaking hard spiked rattans, standing around it, no matter where in the space, it will be damaged by toxins, if you don't solve this monster as soon as possible, there is only one way to die!
Watching the illusions and illusions being destroyed again and again, Xiao Hua secretly broke out in a cold sweat, and secretly rejoiced that after spending three hours, he vomited blood and found the first passage on the left, and when he walked to the innermost, he was sure that it was an infinite loop of labyrinth!
