Chapter 848: Ghost Forest (I)

For a long way east of the Flaming Mountain, it was all black earth, and here, everyone could not see anything else, only black soil scorched by magma, and some remnants of volcanic ash, which plants could barely see, because they could not survive, and as for the air, it was naturally not much better.

However, after more than a month of walking on foot, this phenomenon finally improved, and the color of the earth was finally no longer so obvious pitch black, but gradually added a faint gray in the black, and the air also changed slightly, no longer so hot, no longer with an obvious smell of burning, but a little fresh air accompanied by it.

Upon discovering this, everyone realized that they were about to get out of the territory of the Flame Mountain, and they couldn't help but feel a little excited, and even many people had already begun to look forward to what they would see and encounter next.

Wuqi is the biggest representative of this, and his and Walls' eyes are getting brighter and brighter, and as the journey increases, the mood of anticipation becomes heavier and heavier.

The mood of the others is also similar to these two, and most of them are looking forward to the appearance of new things, but some people show the difference on their faces and some people don't show it on their faces. For example, Rhodes, he belongs to the latter, even if he has expectations, he looks expressionless all day long, as if he is indifferent to everything.

If it weren't for the fact that the group already knew that Rod's personality was like this, they would definitely be ruined by his look and attitude.

Along the way, the only one who thinks differently from others is Yun Zhihao, although he is also looking forward to it, and he is full of curiosity about the things and things that are about to appear in front of him, and even the scenery, but compared to the safety of his partners, he would rather not have this curiosity, and choose to keep himself calm and judge at all times.

Therefore, along the way, people who don't understand the amorous feelings, except for Rhodes, is him. Compared to Rod, he is even better.

"Don't look forward to it too much! Since we went to sea, we have encountered many dangers, so let's not relax too much! Caution will not be wrong after all!"

"Don't nag me! I know that your strength has become stronger now, and your physical strength is also abundant, but no matter what, we don't know what awaits us in front of you, if you really accidentally put yourself in danger because of a moment of negligence, it will be troublesome, and this will affect others. ”

"Please pay attention to it! I say this for everyone's good, and prevent it from happening, otherwise, if it is ......."

Such a voice, in this quiet day, everyone can hear it almost all the time, there is no doubt that this kind of performance is absolutely rare in Yun Zhihao, because he is actually not a person who talks a lot on weekdays, but this time he will change the norm and become such a mother-in-law, which is really abnormal.

But it can be seen that he really put his heart and soul into it, and he really worries about the safety of his partners.

However, there is another important reason why Yun Zhihao will take the trouble to nag in the ears of his partners all day long like a grandmother. It was when they left the territory of the Hills that he learned from the Clan's patriarch that the area east of the Flaming Mountain, that is, the area they were about to set foot in, was a place called the Ghost Forest.

What is a ghost forest? Is it just a mountain forest? Since it is a mountain forest, why should it be called a ghost forest? Is there a ghost shuttling through this mountain forest? Is there really such a special existence as a ghost in this world?

These are the questions that Yun Zhihao has been asking himself repeatedly in his mind behind his nagging, during which he has actually told Wuqi what he thinks many times, and hopes that Wuqi, the head of the regiment, can play a leading role, so that everyone will pay attention to it and don't despise the ghost forest too much.

But the answer he got was a sentence that made him extremely disappointed, only to see Wuqi smile slightly, wave his hand, and say disapprehantly: "Bamboo." You're overthinking. Even if there are more ghosts in the ghost forest, don't worry too much. Don't forget, the Soul Breaker Bow in John's hand is a sharp weapon specially used to deal with souls, and with the Soul Breaker Bow, no matter how strong the ghost is, it is also an ornament. ”

And the reason why other people don't care about Yun Zhihao's reminder like Wuqi is because they heard Wuqi's answer.

However, Yun Zhihao still did not give up, continued to persuade Wu Qi, and said reluctantly: "Shorty, you are right, the Soul Breaker Bow can deal with ghosts, but don't forget, Magulas said to us when she parted that there is a particularly strange place east of the Ghost Forest, called the Three Worm Gate.

It is said that it is a place where there is no return, and it is inextricably linked to the Ghost Forest, you don't care about the Ghost Forest, at least you have to think more about the Three Worms, right?"

"Three Worm Gate!" Wu Qiyan shook his head, and said disapprovingly: "Patriarch Magulas won't lie to us, I know this." That place should be dangerous, too, bamboo, you're right, I'll be more careful.

But now we're still far from there! Look, we haven't even stepped into the ghost forest yet, and you've already told me to be careful of the Three Worm Gate, isn't it too early?"

This answer made Yun Zhihao speechless for a while, and he couldn't persuade him anymore, so he had to nod lightly, sighed, and gave up his plan to persuade further.

For the next period of time, there was finally no discordant sound in the law-breaking group, everyone was hurrying with anticipation, even Yun Zhihao, who had persuaded Wuqi before, was no longer so stubborn, listened to Wuqi's advice, temporarily put down his habitual way of doing things, no longer so vigilant and careful, and together with Wuqi, let his body and mind completely relax.

A week later, the effect was not bad, Yun Zhihao's original strength had reached a bottleneck, and it was difficult to improve, but he didn't expect a rare relaxation, which actually made him feel a hint of an imminent breakthrough, this discovery made Yun Zhihao, who has always been expressionless and habitually calm and calm, excited for a long time, and couldn't sleep for several days.

Although it was still unknown when he would be able to break through, he couldn't speculate, but there was a sign of a breakthrough for people in this realm, and it was enough. Because, this also means that their strength will not stop there, but will go further.

Hearing this news, everyone else was very happy, and they were sincerely happy that Yun Zhihao could have this kind of auspicious omen, and even more, they specially set up a banquet for Yun Zhihao for this purpose, and celebrated it well, making the atmosphere of the entire law-breaking group more harmonious and harmonious.

And in this harmonious atmosphere, another month passed, and the group finally saw a mountain forest.

This is the only mountain forest here, huge and boundless, in the whole mountain forest, except for the mountain is the tree, there is nothing else, before entering, everyone has already felt a vigorous vitality from the outside of the mountain forest, like a steady stream of energy, never exhausted, moisturizing the mountains and trees here.

The trees in the mountain forest are very tall, each one is like a towering ancient tree, towering into the clouds, you can't see the top when you raise your eyes, and there are a lot of them, as far as the eye can see, they are densely packed, and there are big trees with lush branches everywhere, almost covering the heaven and the earth, which makes people have to marvel.

"This is the Ghost Forest?"

"I'm not mistaken, is there such a big tree in this world? Moreover, there is not just one, there are so many of them!"

"I feel the vigorous vitality, from the mountains and forests continue to gush, so that my body and mind are warm and comfortable, such a warm and peaceful place, is it really the ghost forest that Magulas said?"

Eventually, as one exclamation after another landed, many people had such doubts and began to doubt Magulas's words. Wuqi is naturally one of them, but at the same time he is very puzzled, since Magulas can't lie to himself, there is no need to lie to himself, so why is the mountain forest in front of him not like the ghost forest?

As soon as he thought of this, Wuqi frowned, and the word "Chuan" instantly appeared in the center of his eyebrows, and while pondering, he subconsciously said to himself: "What is it for? Could it be that we have all misunderstood? The so-called ghost forest is just an ordinary name, and it has no special significance?"

In the end, this question was agreed by everyone, and Wuqi himself felt that this might be the truth, and the ghost forest was just an ordinary name, and there were no so-called ghosts.

But under Yun Zhihao's reminder, Wuqi still didn't walk in recklessly, but before stepping in, he released his breath, submerged in the ghost forest, and cautiously investigated.

"Yes! Maybe the reason why the ghost forest has gone and never returned is not necessarily that there are ghosts in it. There can't be anything so gloomy in such a peaceful place, I've seen it before, they all exist in that kind of particularly cold and damp place, and there is absolutely no way to have them here.

In other words, what is going and not returning here should have nothing to do with ghosts, nor does it have anything to do with the meaning of the word ghost forest. ”

After saying this, Wuqi nodded, very satisfied with his inference, and then, as if he had thought of something again, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he nodded lightly while saying confidently: "I know the way!"

There must be something particularly terrible in the ghost forest, which will devour the creatures that enter it like a living thing, so this place is called a ghost forest with no return by outsiders. ”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone else around him also nodded their heads in agreement.

Seeing this, Wu Qi hurriedly mobilized everyone and said, "Since everyone agrees with my opinion, let's all release our breath and carefully investigate the interior of the ghost forest first." If my inference is correct, we must be able to feel the fluctuations of life in that thing. ”

"Good!"

The next moment, when the neat response landed, everyone except Walls gathered their qi together, and spread their cultivator's qi out of the sky in a rippled way, submerging into the ghost forest to investigate the situation.

One person's breath is naturally insignificant compared to the entire ghost forest, but when everyone's breath is intertwined and submerged into the ghost forest, the coverage reaches an extremely terrifying level, although it is still impossible to investigate all the interior of the ghost forest at once, but it also covers most of the area.

However, this process was a bit long, it lasted a full five minutes, and it took the group to complete the investigation of two-thirds of the area of the ghost forest, and the remaining third, everyone did not mean to let go, they were all resting for a while, and after recovering their strength, they investigated in the same way again.

It didn't take long, and after another two minutes, everyone's breath finally recovered, and this investigation made many people have a new understanding of the ghost forest, and even, it made a few people directly widen their eyes, wondering if their feelings were wrong, and couldn't help but exclaim and sigh.

"Oh my God......! This so-called ghost forest is so big! If you want to walk through this mountain forest, you can't walk through it without a month! It's too big!"

In my opinion, from the point of view that this area cannot fly, this ghost forest can trap us for a month, and conservatively estimated, it can trap us for at least half a year. The topography here is so special that every tree, grass, and other scenery around it is almost identical.

If the labyrinth of Jubao Mountain is just a small work in the labyrinth, then this natural labyrinth of the ghost forest is the masterpiece of nature! It's so hard to identify the direction, not to mention anything else, just the breath probe, I almost got lost, I don't know which area I am exploring. ”
