The bustling area of Chishan is spread out around with Red Rock City as the core, the red and gray corridor of the desolate but important transportation artery to the north, and the Inkiramo Mountains to the west. The villagers of Meihua Village either farm all their lives and cannot earn a few dollars all year round, and once they encounter drought and flood disasters, they have to live a tight and hard life, or they leave their hometowns and go out to try their luck to see if they can make a fortune. The villagers who are still in the village are basically people who have neither many ideas nor skills, and once they are tempted by large bounties, they become puppets who are at the mercy of others.

Long Dailan saw this very clearly. The tavernkeeper's son was right, they had indeed hit a fortune path that they couldn't afford to miss out on at the moment, and they couldn't miss it - when would the first samurai of Xianglong be seriously injured next time?

Inspired by the bounty, seven or eight villagers shouted in unison to strengthen their courage, and rushed towards her and Yu Jian with the weapons in their hands.

Yu Jian looked pained, hunched back and sat on the ground, seeing that she could no longer stand up, she opened her arms in front of him, just like he had been standing in front of her. In the face of danger, he has never retreated and hesitated, how can she retreat and hesitate at this moment?

"Old man, you said you want to protect us!" She didn't know if this old man Huang had this ability, but now he was the only hope. Although she and Yu Jian have learned boxing and swordsmanship, she usually does not practice diligently, and she is pregnant, and she has been poisoned by Dong Xiaohua, so she is weak and weak, and she can't resist this group of red-eyed villagers at all.

When the villagers saw that Yu Jian really couldn't stand up, they were even more excited, and their faces turned red one by one, and their feet strengthened, and their expressions couldn't help but turn this wanted criminal into a lot of bounties immediately.

"Stop!" Old man Huang suddenly let out a loud cry, and stood in front of Long Dailan with a medicine pestle, he was standing behind her, but she didn't see clearly, why did he run to him.

The tavernkeeper's son shouted, "Old man Huang, don't go crazy, they're wanted!"

Old Man Huang ignored it, picked up the medicine pestle high, and then slammed it into the ground, sinking the medicine pestle deep into the slush ground. One of the villagers who ran at the front was wielding a thick wooden stick, and when he approached Old Man Huang, he suddenly fell backwards, as if he had hit a wall.

Long Dailan, like the villagers who followed closely behind, didn't know what was going on. The villagers in front fell, and the people behind them were too late to close their feet, and they hit the invisible wall one by one, and the more they ran, the more painful they became, and in an instant seven or eight people fell to the ground, shouting and moaning.

She was surprised and delighted, she didn't expect Old Man Huang to have such a skill, and he knocked over a bunch of people as soon as he made a move. I saw the tavernkeeper's son standing "outside the wall" with a threatening voice: "Old man Huang, you are harboring and harboring wanted criminals, and you are against His Majesty Long Jun! My father has already gone to the town to report the news, you hurry back to your pharmacy, I can act as if nothing happened! Otherwise, don't blame us for not talking about the feelings of the villagers!"

Old man Huang snorted coldly: "It's up to you, no one wants to touch the two of them! For the sake of your safety, I advise you not to come with you." Saying that, he grabbed Yu Jian's arm and glanced at Long Dailan, she understood, and carried Yu Jian's other arm with her shoulder, and the two of them carried Yu Jian and turned around.

She didn't feel at ease to look back, the aura wall seemed to be still standing in place, and the villagers were still blocked out when they got up. I just heard them cursing non-stop, saying that Old Man Huang was in the way of a village of people getting rich.

"Hurry up, this is the aura wall, I can't control it if I go farther. Old man Huang didn't care if she could keep up or not, and quickened his pace.

Fortunately, the mountain road was often cleared, the slush was very shallow, and the road was not slippery, although it was very hard for her to withstand the wind and snow, she was able to keep up with the previous footprints, and soon left the villagers behind. But it didn't take long to hear the shouts again, and when I turned my head, the aura wall disappeared, and the villagers chased after me.

Then she saw the periphery of the forest, with rows of pines on the edge of a frozen stream, like the guardians of the forest. Behind the pine trees are tall cypress and oak trees, and there are many other trees, which are generally tall and luxuriant. This is the Whispering Forest, an incredible place.

There is no snow on the canopy and branches of this forest, and the trunks are tall and strong, with dense branches and leaves, and the eyes are full of greenery and life. The frozen stream is like a dividing line between the seasons, separating white from green, one side is the snow season, and the other side is like a warm spring.

It's amazing, legend has it that there is a forest goddess, or a forest banshee, and looking at this spectacle, it seems to be true. She was stunned, and for a moment she stood there and forgot to move.

Old man Huang also stopped, he was tightly pounding the medicine pestle, it seemed that he used a lot of strength, and in this cold weather, beads of sweat actually flowed down his cheeks. She was very worried, and was about to ask a question, when suddenly she saw a whirlwind around her, and the snow and dust were blown up and swirled in front of their eyes. In a short period of time, the wind became very strong, turning into a violent wind that blew towards the chasing villagers.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Old Man Huang almost dragged Yu Jian and ran towards the forest quickly.

The wind was quite effective, and the villagers were dragged behind and couldn't get over, and the two of them carried Yu Jian almost all the way to a trot, and soon ran to the frozen stream. She was a little out of breath, and stopped by the stream to take a break, and saw that the ground had also turned from white to green, and on the other side of the stream was a green mud ground covered with fallen leaves, and occasionally some red, yellow, purple and white flowers and plants had grown, which were colorful and beautiful, each with its own form, which was very pleasing to the eye. She had also seen many ornamental plants in the Hundred Gardens, but none of them were as beautiful as here, and she couldn't even name these strange flowers and plants.

The row of pine trees on the outskirts of the forest suddenly retreated to both sides of the forest as if a curtain had been lifted, revealing a wide gap, and the oak and cypress trees inside were lined up on either side as if they had grown legs and could walk, and a forest path paved with thick fallen leaves appeared in front of them out of thin air.

This strange forest made her feel like she was in a dream, so unreal. "Come with me. Old man Huang greeted, dragged Yu Jian, and took the lead on the forest path and entered the Whispering Forest.

She was uneasy, this didn't seem dangerous, was it really the grave of the murderous forest, the trespasser?, but the pace behind her was getting closer, and she didn't allow her to think too much. She gritted her teeth and followed. Yu Jian's consciousness was still there, her expression was painful and surprised, but she was speechless, and the blood was still gushing from her abdomen covered by her hands, and she couldn't help but cry when she saw it. She comforted herself, since Old Man Huang was familiar with the herbs in this area, there should be a way.

Grief and shock were mixed together, and it was unbelievable to see it. The trees were nothing like anything she had ever seen, they were movable, their torsos were massive, and the strong roots that were buried deep were their feet. If the forest doesn't welcome them, they will close again at any time, sandwiching them in the middle, she remembers hearing the old palace maid tell a certain story about the forest like this, the strange tree is actually a monster that kills people. They will trick you and then devour you.

She suddenly noticed that the shouting of the villagers had disappeared, and when she looked back, the gap between the pine trees was gone, and the forest path in which she had come in was gone. The forest was closing behind them, returning to its original form, as if nothing had happened.

They had fully entered the Whispering Forest, and the pursuers had stopped.

After all, it is still the snow season, and there are no snowflakes, snow and ice in the forest, but the temperature is still low, but you can hear the crisp birdsong from time to time, and you can see squirrels running through the branches of the green trees, which looks full of spring.

The feet of the trees protruded into the ground, intertwined, and some unknown huge plants grew between the trees, some holding green leaves the size of umbrellas, and some branches wrapped around the trunks, which seemed to be still sliding, and she couldn't tell whether they were animals or plants. Some have red flowers about the height of a person, and the huge petals are stained with water droplets the size of a basin.

There were countless kinds of plants that she had never seen or imagined, colorful and strangely shaped, and walking in this strange forest, she felt like a tired bird that had lost its way, small and powerless, completely captured by the forest.

Suddenly, an extremely large tree appeared before her eyes, its trunk seemed to be gilded, and every piece of bark on it was so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it for a while. It took a while for her to squint, barely making out what the tree looked like. I saw that the trunk of the tree was thick and wide, like a farmhouse, and the green leaves on the top of the head were connected, like a big umbrella covering the sky, as if this huge tree was the umbrella bone. Standing under the tree, I was a little dizzy. The giant tree is not only tall but also ancient, with tight cracks in the bark and deep openings to reveal the black wood grain inside, and extremely luxuriant whorls of branches on the high ground, which shade the sky and the sun.

Old Man Huang walked to the giant tree and stopped, he put Yu Jian on the edge of the oak tree on the side, let him lie down slowly with his back against the trunk, and then spread his palm towards the giant tree, Long Dailan realized that he had been holding the copper key in his palm.

"Guardian of the Whispering Forest, please identify the evidence of this apostle, the key to the forest. He said this respectfully and reverently, as if he were facing a god.

There is nothing special in front of me except this ancient tree, is the forest guardian this giant tree?

I only heard an extremely old voice say: "You have brought your certificate into my homeland, and I have known that it is only by opening the road for you that you can see me." You and the other three are all certificate holders?"
