Section 8--- First Night on the Island (3)
Sure enough, not far ahead, the light was flickering again. Strictly speaking, there should be something like a fire shaking. Xi Feng fixed his eyes on observation, but at the same time he wondered, could it be a ghost?
I saw that the firelight was sky blue, and then it floated sideways for a short time and then disappeared, and then reappeared. It floated by for a short while, and then disappeared again. As this continued, little by little, more fires began to appear in front of me. Seeing this, Xi Feng couldn't help but feel chills in his heart, and every time he disappeared and reappeared, it seemed to be much closer than before. They're getting closer to Xi Feng!"Oh my God, you'll bring me some monsters during the day, and you'll come to ghosts at night, do you want to scare me to death?" Xi Feng swallowed his saliva, complaining in his heart about the fate that God had given him!
It didn't take long for the firelight to drift under the tree, and it was still moving upwards and closer to Xi Feng, and finally all the fire came, like a Christmas tree decoration, and it was all hung on the tree. The light they emitted enveloped the trees and the wind.
"This, this is so beautiful!" Xi Feng was moved by the scenery in front of him. From a distance, these fluttering fires are indeed a little weird, but now that they are enclosed, the sky blue light they emit is so charming. The fear in Xi Feng's heart before suddenly disappeared, and he still felt the tenderness brought by the light...... Gentle, this feels very similar to the feeling of the light in the space before!Could it be you?Xi Feng immediately became excited, looking up at the firelight. He raised his left hand and caught the largest and brightest beam of fire he had ever seen. Because he remembered that it was the same before, as long as he caught the fire, and then the glowing symbol on the back of his hand would appear, and then there would be a new indication!
He leaned forward a few times and realized that the firelight was still far away, and he had fixed himself with vines, so that he could not catch the fire in front of him. "Now I can move, don't be afraid!" he untied the vine that held him in place, and straddled the branch with his legs outstretched. There is a beam of fire on the branches and leaves in front of you, ignore the others for now, and try this first.
Xi Feng chose to touch the branches and leaves that were parked directly in front of him, and he crawled forward little by little. Compared to the previous encounter in the tree, this time he seemed more cautious, not worried about the attack from behind, so he still chose to crawl forward slowly.
The fire was right in front of him, and he could reach out and touch it. At the same time, Xi Feng still wanted to take a closer look at this charming blue flame! It was the same as the usual torch light, the size of a fist, and the flame in the heart of the flame was darker than that of the outer flame, and the light was not dazzling, but even more eye-catching. "What are you? Are you the light in front of you?" said Xi Feng to the blue fire in front of him, "Can I touch you?"
"Huh~~Ha~~~"
I could only hear the same sound as when they appeared just now, it sounded like they were breathing, and it was a little like they were trying to say something. Xi Feng looked at it for a while, then raised his left and slowly stretched it over. However, he hesitated, because when he was about to touch it, the blue fire seemed to flicker slightly, and the fire changed slightly. Xi Feng stopped, and after that, he didn't see any change in the blue fireball. So, Xi Feng continued to stretch out his hand.
The palm of his hand was only about a few centimeters away from the blue fire, Xi Feng's concentration was tight, and his eyes widened! Xi Feng saw that the blue fire no longer moved, and instantly clenched his left hand into a fist......
Did you catch it? Xi Feng held his fist for a few seconds, but he didn't seem to feel anything. He was a little skeptical, did he catch it?After a few seconds, he slowly released his fist and looked into his palm. He also felt very puzzled, could it be that he was too strong to extinguish the fire, or was it some other reason? Xi Feng grabbed his hair and thought about it.
"Huh~~~Ha~~~"
The voice sounded again, and Xi Feng raised his head to look at these blue fires. To his surprise, these blue fires began to disappear one after another. "Ha~~" "Huh~~" "Yo~~~"...... And, every time one of them disappears, there seems to be a noise. The last of the blue flames also disappeared, and Xi Feng was the only one left in the tree. The night view of the sky is still the same as before, and the surroundings are back to their original quietness and darkness. "Am I left alone? Or is it because I've done something wrong? or...... These are my own hallucinations. Hehe, it seems that I'm crazy, right?" Xi Feng, who felt lonely again, lowered his head impatiently and smiled bitterly.
"Huh~~~Ha"
The voice of the blue fire sounded again! Xi Feng hurriedly raised his head to look everywhere, he was very anxious, and his body spun sharply to find the blue fire. For a moment, he forgot that the place he was was close to the edge of the branch, causing the branch and leaf he was sitting on to sway up and down. "Where's it? Where's you? Where are you...... Wow~~" A beam of blue fire suddenly appeared on Xi Feng's right, and it came out close to his right cheek!
"Ouch~~~ It hurts~~~" Xi Feng was thrown to the ground, but there was no big problem, just tossed on the ground for a while, and slowly calmed down. However, he was reluctant to get up for the time being, because he felt very comfortable lying flat on the ground and looking up at the sky. And the special fragrance of these grasses, dead branches and leaves, and the soil made him feel very calm. "Big brother, are you playing tricks on me? Look at you, get me to the ground, in case there are some jackal beasts, how can I deal with them!" After a while, he still remembered those blue fireballs just now, after such a fall, he felt that these blue fireballs seemed to be trying to give him some information, but he couldn't understand it for a while.
"Huh~~~Ha"...... Sure enough, the voice sounded! Xi Feng sat up and looked again, and the blue fireball also appeared, and a fireball stayed about ten meters in front of Xi Feng.
Xi Feng stood up and walked in front of the blue fireball. Again, the fireball didn't move, except that some sounds were heard from it. "What the hell are you? Did you bring me here? was it you before?" asked Xi Feng as he turned to the blue ball of fire. But after a while, the blue fireball still didn't change. Just hear some sounds.
"Whew~~~Ha~~Yo"
"I really don't understand! or you ......" Xi Feng smiled, wanting to ask Blue Fireball again. This time, though, he seemed to get an answer.
The blue fireballs reappeared one after the other, just behind the blue fireball in front of Xi Feng. One by one, they appeared in a line, each with a distance of one or two meters, constantly stretching far ahead. The light of the fire illuminated the pitch-black woods, forming a path. Could it be that they were going to let Xi Feng go down this road, to lead him somewhere?
Although Xi Feng didn't know what these blue fireballs were going to do, he knew that there must be something in front of him for the blue fireballs to do so. "Do you want me to follow?" Xi Feng looked at the blue fireball in front of him, then turned around to retrieve the wooden stick he had found earlier, and walked forward along the path formed by the blue fireball.
At first, Xi Feng was also a little hesitant, after all, he was walking alone in the woods at night, and it was not a very "peaceful" road all the way. Climbing over small dirt slopes, crossing small streams, etc., is acceptable, but there are several places on the way that resemble animal dens. Although it was already late at night, the animals were resting in their nests. However, Xi Feng was still very careful, trying to wake up the sleeping animals as much as he could. Because I don't know if the sleeping animals inside are friendly or not, if they attract a wild beast, it will become their supper!
After walking for a while, Xi Feng came to a relatively empty place. However, there are blue fireballs ahead, indicating that the end seems to be ahead. Xi Feng paused slightly, and was about to make a slight adjustment before leaving, when he suddenly heard something on his right!
"Lulu~~~" Xi Feng turned his head to look. Wow, it turns out that this is not only a beast's den, but after Xi Feng turned his head to look at the snoring sound, he saw a huge creature sleeping in it. The creature could not be seen clearly at night, but it could still be seen through the blue flames that it was about five or six meters long and more than three meters tall. The creature was now lying prone in its nest, curled up with its back to the wind, and looked like a reptilian creature with vertical scales on its back.
Not being able to stay here for long, but not being able to wake up the huge creature, Xi Feng decided to bend down and sneakily move away. But he didn't expect that as soon as he took a step, he seemed to step on something like a dead tree branch, making a "click" sound. The sound broke the silence of the night nearby, and Xi Feng was so frightened that he couldn't move, barely daring to breathe!
"Hmm~~" Sure enough, the creature woke up and slowly raised its head to turn around to see what was going on!, but just as it raised its head, several blue fireballs appeared nearby, not around its head. The creature seemed to have seen the blue fireball as well, and its body didn't make any other movements. It didn't take long for the creature to slowly lower its head and continue to sleep.
When Xi Feng saw it, he also felt very puzzled, could it be that these fireballs have the ability to make the animals sleep? However, it is useless to think about it, it is better to leave quickly!
