Ding Rong and Bai Yuelan are relatively young, so they share a room with Li Miaoquan and the four girls from Nandao. When Ding Rong returned to the room, the night was completely overcast.

In the darkness, a groggy feeling began to spread, and the girls hurriedly wanted to find a lamp to light on, and Li Miaoquan, who had been paying attention to the door, suddenly said, "Our door can't be opened." ”

As soon as the girls pushed the door, they found that it was really so, not locked by the proprietress but locked by the enchantment. Fortunately, Li Miaoquan's cultivation is deep, she took out the sword, used a spell to urge the silver light of the sword, and waved the sword a few times, the barrier of the gate was broken, and the girls walked out of the room and found that the people in the other two rooms had also come out.

Xiang Nan said incredulously: "Someone actually locked it with an enchantment, and it seems that there is sleeping magic to hypnotize us." ”

Ye Zhi replied: "It's not to lock us, but to lock all the doors in the town." ”

Everyone quietly went down the stairs to the first floor, and found that the entire inn was quiet, and the proprietress and her son were silent.

Ding Rong quietly pushed open the door and saw the son of the proprietress sleeping in the house, and he slept soundly. Just as he was about to close the door and go out, Ding Rong noticed a subtle blue-purple color coming out of the boy's head.

Slowly, the blue-purple strands became thicker and thicker, and many filaments were separated, like vines, and the thickest one began to grow leaves, and the branches that branched out also grew leaves. The boy's room seemed to be flooded with blue-purple vines gushing out.

Monster!

Ding Rong retreated again and again, exited the door, and found that the senior brothers and sisters who went to check also retreated from the hostess's room, and a large number of blue-purple vines spread out from the room, not only from the door, but also through the wall.

"What kind of monster is this?" Bai Yuelan asked nervously.

Yuan Lang smiled and said, "Little Sister Bai, this is not a monster, this is a sleeping spirit formed after a person falls asleep. Normally, they can't be seen, but because of the mana of the Sandman, they are tangible. ”

Everyone walked out from the door of the inn and found that vines grew through the walls of each house, and soon they filled the streets, and the entire Ping'an Town was covered with blue-purple vines. The vines continued to stretch upwards, sticking out of their branches to form large trees, and in a few moments, there were fewer and fewer places to stay, and the town was almost submerged, and the top of the town had become a blue-purple forest.

Yuan Lang tentatively touched it, these vines were actually materialized, but the wall next to him was like light smoke, and all the people and things in the town had been virtualized. He climbed up the vine and said, "Come up, brothers and sisters, we are already in the sleeping forest." ”

Originally, this forest would have been created after the six hundred and ninety-nine people in the town had fallen asleep.

Ding Rong They climbed up, their feet on the soft grass, the ground was full of blue-purple light and shadow, and the clothes under the clothes were also stained with a little blue-purple, and there was "faint grass" everywhere.

Suddenly, the sound of children's laughter could be heard in the woods. Everyone followed the sound and saw many children of all sizes playing eagles and chickens, and everyone was crazy and had a good time.

A sharp-eyed South Island woman whispered, "Look, little junior brother!"

Yes, there is a boy with a red mole on his eyebrows and a very delicate dress at the tail of the child who is protected by the "hen", and he is Mei Songbai.

The woman was about to stop him, but Yuan Lang stopped him, he said, "I don't know if he is asleep or awake, let's see the situation first." ”

The children were having a good time, but Mei Songbai gradually quieted down and walked to the side.

A girl with round eyes and purple eyes followed and shouted, "Hey, little plum, what's wrong with you?"

Mei Songbai turned to her and said, "If I run out with you like this, my mother will be in a hurry." ”

The little girl smiled and grabbed Mei Songbai's hand and said, "I will send you back! There are few children in our clan, and I am really lonely, so I am looking for you human children to play." But they only play childish games like catching chicks, and they can't talk to me about their hearts. Can you play with me a little longer?"

Mei Songbai looked at the little girl's pleading appearance and was charming and cute, so she could only nod.

A group of young people hiding next to him sighed in their hearts, it turned out that Senior Brother Mei was not taken away, but voluntarily, and he couldn't pass the beauty pass.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the woods, and darkness appeared behind the trees, and the children began to run in all directions and shouted: "The monster is coming, run!"

The aura around him fluctuated, and a boy who was about to hide in the forest was pierced by something in the black mist, and blood was pouring out.

Without further ado, Yuan Lang stepped forward, hugged Mei Songbai, and was about to hide behind the tree, but it was too late, when suddenly a huge centipede cut through the black mist and came out, chasing and biting these children, and the children screamed and ran for their lives.

Mei Songbai also often goes to Dongdao with his mother, so he naturally recognizes Yuan Lang, and when he saw his acquaintance, Mei Songbai immediately understood, grabbed Yuan Lang's hand and said, "Senior Brother Yuan, save Xiaomei!"

The little girl with bright eyes that the centipede spirit is chasing now is the nebuta Xiaomei who brought Mei Songbai.

Seeing Yuan Lang's hesitation, Mei Songbai immediately said: "If you can't save her back, I won't go back!"

Yuan Lang sighed, and could only stuff the little junior brother into Ding Rong's hand beside him, pulled out his sword, and rushed forward.

This centipede has profound skills, has hard armor all its life, and is invulnerable, so Ye Zhi and Qu Linghan hurriedly drew their swords to help.

Ding Rong came out to celebrate his birthday this time, he didn't bring his own soft sword, and his skills were limited, so he could only hide behind the tree with Mei Songbai, watching everyone join the melee one after another, Bai Yuelan and Tong Yuyang also took out their respective swords and stabbed straight up, but there was no water in this forest, so Bai Yuelan's ice blade could not be driven.

Suddenly, the twisted body of the centipede stretched out a tail spine and stabbed at Bai Yuelan from behind, but Bai Yuelan was dealing with the centipede foot attack in front of her, and she didn't pay attention at all. Ding Rong was anxious, and his right hand pushed out a palm force to push Bai Yuelan away. At this time, the centipede's tail thorn struck a blow, and it had already stabbed Ding Rong's eyes, Ding Rong retreated only to find that she had her back against the tree, and there was nowhere to escape, she pushed away the Mei Songbai she was holding, and closed her eyes sideways.

At this moment, she heard Ye Zhi's shout, "Ding Rong Run".

Suddenly, in the blue-purple fluorescent forest, a silvery light appeared, stabbing everyone from opening their eyes.

Qu Linghan's sword was piercing into the centipede spirit's mouth, and it shook it off and hit a big tree, Qu Linghan just wanted to stand up against the tree, and suddenly the big tree "swished" and retracted into the ground.

Yuan Lang looked at it, and also reached out and touched the big tree beside him, and the big tree that couldn't be hugged quickly became smaller and thinner, getting shorter and shorter.

Qu Linghan said: "This sleeping forest is disappearing!"

"Yes, the people of Ping'an Town are waking up!" Yuan Lang shouted, "Let's evacuate!"

The centipede spirit was no longer in control, and quickly ran to the edge of the forest, and as he ran, he saw more and more trees shrinking back into the ground, as if the scene of growing big trees in an instant was reversed.

When they ran out of the forest, the forest completely collapsed, and they were standing on the street of Ping'an Town.

It was pitch dark, and it was not dawn, but everyone seemed to be awake, and in the darkness they could hear whispers coming from the house, and it was clear that no one knew how to wake up early. Only the west side of the town, which was very noisy, seemed to be heard from a heart-rending cry.

Yuan Lang asked, "Are you all okay?"

The figures in the darkness replied, "It's fine." ”

"What about Junior Brother Mei?" Yuan Lang continued to ask.

Everyone replied with doubt: "I didn't see it." ”

"Didn't ...... by my side either"

"It seems to be Senior Sister Ding from Beidao just now. ”

Suddenly, Xiang Nan's voice said, "It's not just Senior Brother Mei, our Senior Sister Ding Rong and Second Senior Brother of the North Island are gone!"
