The forest was quiet, save for the crackling of firewood and the chirping of birds and insects.

After eating the bread in my hand, I drank a bottle of mineral water directly, and then looked at Ning Nanxi and asked: "I haven't seen any trace of sika deer after looking for an afternoon today, what should I do tomorrow, now Uncle Qin's life is in danger, if I can't find the antler frost, it will be troublesome." ”

Ning Nanxi put down the half-eaten bread in his hand after listening to me, and then said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Qin really can't last long, but without the antler cream, even if he uses other scorching drugs to bathe him, it won't help, tomorrow we will look for another morning, if I still can't find it, I will call my father immediately, and ask him to send the Xuanqing Sect disciples to look for the antler cream on the market, and if you find it, you will send it here immediately." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, you should call your father now, let them prepare in advance, and we won't be able to find any more time to delay when the time comes." I looked at Ning Nanxi and said eagerly.

Ning Nanxi smiled bitterly after hearing this, and asked me not to see what time it is, the pharmacies on the market at this point have long been closed, even if you want to buy it, you have to wait until tomorrow morning, instead of making her father worry about it all night, it is better to talk about it early tomorrow morning.

Ning Nanxi's words were not unreasonable, and after nodding in agreement, I looked at Ning Nanxi and said: "It's not early now, you can rest early after eating, now the bonfire burning beasts dare not intrude, even if there are still embers, they dare not approach, so you can sleep in peace." ”

After seeing Ning Nanxi nodding, I lay down on the hay to rest, and after a while, there was a noise behind me, and I thought that Ning Nanxi had also laid down.

Lying on the hay, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and I was always worried about Qin Wenhua's affairs.

Although Qin Wenhua did not become what he is today because of me, he helped me borrow my life to speed up the development of the disease, and I also have an unshirkable responsibility.

Anyway, I had to save his life, after all, he had saved mine.

Just as I was tossing and turning and struggling to fall asleep, there was a sound of rustling not far behind me, and when I looked back at the sound, Ning Nanxi lying on the hay was trembling.

Although the campfire is not far away from us at the moment, the lack of sunlight in the dense forest makes it dark and damp, and the temperature is several degrees lower than that outside the forest.

Ning Nanxi was wearing thin clothes when he came, and now he can't withstand the biting cold in this forest.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly got up and took off the coat on my body, walked to Ning Nanxi's side softly, and put the coat in my hand on Ning Nanxi's body.

The moment the coat fell, Ning Nanxi slowly opened her eyes, looked at me in surprise, and asked, "Aren't you cold when you put your coat on me?" ”

"It's not cold, I'm young and strong, I feel a little hot when I wear a coat, and besides, you're a girl's family and you're afraid of the cold, what if you catch a cold, I'm still counting on you to find the antler cream, you hurry up and have a good rest, and we'll continue to look for the antler cream tomorrow morning." I looked at Ning Nanxi and whispered.

"Thank you Chen Mo, I shouldn't have teased you today, don't be angry with me." Ning Nanxi looked at me with a harmless face, but her eyes were full of guilt.

Ning Nanxi, who was originally unruly, has now become a docile little sheep, which makes me really unacceptable for a while.

I smiled embarrassedly and said: "You are fun by nature, how can I take it to heart, besides, you have also saved me and Lao Li before, this kindness is difficult to repay, how can I be angry with you, okay, don't think about it, rest early, I will go back to sleep." ”

With that, I got up and went back to the hay and lay down, then closed my eyes and said no more.

With the sound of firewood crackling and birds chirping and insects, I slowly fell asleep, and I don't know how long I slept I was suddenly awakened by a burst of urine.

When I woke up, I found that the campfire was only ashes, so I quickly put a few more pieces of wood to relight the campfire.

At this time, Ning Nanxi was lying opposite me and sleeping peacefully, her quiet face looking particularly moving under the firelight.

Seeing that he had not been woken up by me, I cautiously got up and went to the woods next to me, when I was just about to put on my pants and go back to sleep, when I suddenly noticed that something was wrong.

The original noisy sound of birds and insects in the forest disappeared without a trace, leaving only the crackling sound of burning firewood.

When I noticed the vision, I felt a thump in my heart, and a bad feeling came over me.

I've heard the older generation say that animals are more perceptive than humans, and if they see danger, they will be alerted in advance, and now the sound of birds and insects disappearing at the same time is a kind of vigilance, and they must have found that there is danger around them, so they will shut up and stop talking.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly looked around, but it was already dark at this time, and there were dense forests and weeds all around, all I could see was darkness, and I couldn't see anything else.

Although I can't see if there is a big beast hiding in the dense forest, I can't take it lightly, once the big beast suddenly attacks me and Ning Nanxi, we can only be passive.

After thinking about it, I decided to wake up Ning Nanxi first, after all, the current situation is too critical, once the big beast attacks and Ning Nanxi has not woken up, he will inevitably suffer a catastrophe.

After making up my mind, I walked quickly to Ning Nanxi's side, squatted down and gently shook his palm at his shoulder, and whispered Ning Nanxi's name as I swayed.

A few seconds later, Ning Nanxi slowly opened her eyes, she looked at me with sleepy eyes, and wondered: "What's the matter, isn't it still dawn this day, what are you telling me to do?" ”

"Hurry up, the surrounding situation is not quite right, there is a dead silence in this forest, I suspect that it is infested by a big beast!" I looked at Ning Nanxi and said nervously.

As soon as these words came out, Ning Nanxi came to her senses, she turned over and sat up, pulled out the Evil Breaking Sword from her waist, and then looked around, and after observing for a while, her face became more and more solemn, as if she had discovered something.

"Did you find anything?" I looked at Ning Nanxi anxiously and asked in a low voice.

"It's not like a big beast, I think it should be some kind of unclean thing, if you look closely, there is a faint white mist on the other side of the dense forest, if I am not mistaken, it should be the yin qi emitted from the evil object." Ning Nanxi said, raised his hand and pointed in the direction not far away.

Hearing this, I immediately followed the direction of her finger, and sure enough, there was indeed a faint white mist ten meters away from us that filled the forest.

It stands to reason that there will be no fog at night in this forest, so could it be that you have encountered something unclean?

While pondering, I suddenly remembered what the taxi driver had said to us when I came, he said that the forest of Yangguanling is very evil, and there is a monster three meters high hidden in it, and it is bloodthirsty, could it be that the yin qi in this forest is emitted by this monster?

"Do you think this yin qi has something to do with the monster that the driver said?" I looked at Ning Nanxi and asked in a low voice.

"It's hard to say, I can't judge the situation without seeing it clearly, and if you want to know what is going on, you have to go and check it." Ning Nanxi responded.

Hearing Ning Nanxi's words, I couldn't help but feel shocked, not to mention what this thing is for the time being, now that we can't see anything in the forest, we can't see anything at all, so how can we find it.

It is impossible for us to go into the dense forest with two burning firewoods, and if the other party discovers the fire, we will not be exposed to the other party's field of vision, and then we will be scared of the snake.

I told Ning Nanxi what I wanted in my heart, but Ning Nanxi raised his hand after hearing it, and said: "Firelight lighting is really the best policy, rather than letting the other party find our traces, it is better to stay in the camp and wait for the other party, I have a kind of pill refined by Xuanqing Gate here, called Yeming Dan, as long as you eat this pill within an hour, your eyes can see at night, although it is not as bright as the day, but the near scene can still be seen clearly without light, after eating it for a while, we will go forward to check, remember to be careful, Don't disturb each other. ”

Ning Nanxi took out a black porcelain bottle from her arms, pulled out the wooden stopper above the porcelain bottle, and poured two pills into her palm.

Under the firelight, the two pills were as big as red beans, white-gray in color.

According to Ning Nanxi, this night Ming Dan was made of crow's eyes and black dog eyes dried and ground into powder, plus rootless water.

The crow's eyes can see at night, and the black dog's eyes are the most yin things, so after taking the Ye Ming Dan, you can not only see the scenery clearly at night, but also see the evil things that ordinary people can't see.

Although the effect of the medicine is only for an hour, it will brighten up in one hour, so there is no need to worry too much about the line of sight.

With a feeling of doubt, I took a Yeming Pill from Ning Nanxi's palm, and then put it in my mouth and chewed it.

The moment my teeth bit the elixir, a strong fishy smell and bitter taste burst out in my mouth, and I felt very good for a while, and the smell was even more stomach-stirring.

Ning Nanxi guessed through my expression that I might be a little unwell, so I immediately spoke: "Don't spit out this elixir, I know this thing is very difficult to eat, but the effect of the medicine is excellent, you swallow it immediately after chewing, then close your eyes and rest for a few seconds, and when you open your eyes again, you will find that everything in front of you has changed." ”

I saw that Ning Nanxi had swallowed it smoothly, so I chewed the pill and swallowed it into my stomach.

After eating, I closed my eyes, and after three to five seconds, I slowly opened my eyes, and when I opened my eyes, I was stunned.

The darkness around me became much brighter after a few seconds, and even though I could see things from ten meters away, the color of everything I saw turned green.

"How's it going, do you see what you're seeing?" Ning Nanxi asked with concern on the side.

"I can see it clearly, but how green and hazy, everything is green."

As I spoke, I looked at Ning Nanxi, and saw that her skin, hair, and even the clothes she was wearing had all turned green.

"Don't worry, it's normal at this time, after an hour, when the medicinal properties fade, there will be no more green scenes, and then your vision will return to normal." Ning Nanxi explained.

Hearing this, I put my mind at ease, and walked towards the dense forest with Ning Nanxi in the direction from which the mist came.

I don't know if it's because of the psychological effect or because the coat was lent to Ning Nanxi, as the fog got closer and closer, I obviously felt the temperature around me drop rapidly.

By the time I entered the fog, the temperature had dropped to about seven or eight degrees, and I felt that my limbs were a little woody, and the breath I exhaled had turned into a white mist.

I paced forward with my hands folded on my chest, and after about five or six minutes of walking, I could faintly see a burst of fire not far ahead, accompanied by the sound of stabbing and stabbing.

When Ning Nanxi found the firelight, she immediately raised her hand and waved it to signal me to stop, and then she leaned over to me and whispered, "It seems that this mist should not be emitted by an evil thing, maybe the thing in front of me should be a forest spirit." ”

"Spirits? Shouldn't the essence of the animal exude demonic energy, why is it yin? I looked at Ning Nanxi with some puzzlement and asked.

"Spirits refer not only to the beasts that have become spirits, but also to the mandrill monsters or other creatures in the forest, this kind of thing will condense the resentment of the dead in the body after eating human flesh, and it will turn into yin qi over time, so now you can't easily draw conclusions without seeing specific things, now the firelight is in front, and when you walk, you will walk softly, don't startle the snake." Ning Nanxi said with a gloomy face.
