Outside the vine is still a lush forest, but inside it is depressed and withered.

I saw that all the trees growing here were crooked. Strangely, the trunks of these trees are stout and show no signs of drying up, but there is not a single leaf on the branches, and they look bare.

There are huge boulders scattered around the trees, which look like they have been split by an external force.

The trees and stones are distributed in a circle, and in the middle of them there is a pool of water.

Although the surrounding area is dilapidated, the water is quiet, there is no floating on it, and the water surface is calm and unsquealing. But because the pool is too deep, you can't see the bottom.

"Where are the people? Where did they go?" Jie Sheli looked around in this small ancient vine, and saw no trace of Sima Yang and Wang Lihu.

"Hey, is there anyone? Sima Yang, get out of here, what kind of person is a shrunken turtle!"

The shouting of resignation did not elicit any response, only a burst of echoes.

"Shhhhhhhh ”

Mu Chen said to the three of them: "It's a little strange here, let's go out." ”

After saying that, the four of them walked back, but when they reached the exit of the vine forest, they were bounced back by a barrier.

"Hahahaha!"

Just when Mu Chen and the others were puzzled, a burst of arrogant laughter came out. Sima Yang grabbed Wang Orion and appeared outside the ancient vine, in front of everyone.

"Sima Yang!"

Breaking away from the son's fan summoned a karmic fire towards Sima Yang's fan, but it was bounced back and fell into the pool.

"Hahaha, don't waste your efforts, enter my spell, don't try to escape. Sima Yang said that a red sand was conjured, which was his technique of moving mountains and reclamation.

"Sima Yang, what do you want to do!" Knowing that he had fallen for Sima Yang's plan, he asked even more angrily.

"What do you want to do, naturally, it's to get the Heavenly Fragment!" Sima Yang smiled evilly.

"Isn't it good to be with us, why are you doing this?" Wu Yu looked at his former brother, and there was still a glimmer of hope.

"Hmph," Sima Yang replied with a cold snort, "Naturally, it is of my use. Originally, I didn't want you to get involved, but I can't help it if you follow them, and now we, the masters, don't have to think about the old feelings. ”

"Okay, well, blame me for having no eyes and seeing you wrong. Wuyu gritted his teeth and scolded.

"Hmph, stay here until I find the shards and then I'll kill you. ”

Wang Lihu, who was caught by Sima Yang, trembled with fright when he heard this, "Don't, don't kill me, I don't want to get caught up in your strife." ”

"Sima Yang, you let Brother Wang go. Breaking away roared.

Li Dongyi also chimed in and said, "Yes, Wang Orion is just an ordinary person, please let him go." ”

Sima Yang smiled playfully and said, "Okay, let him go, but I have one condition?"

"What conditions?" asked Mu Chen.

"It's very simple, hand over the Celestial Shards and the map on your body, and I'll let him go. ”

When he heard this, he roared angrily: "You are dreaming!

"Hahaha, you guys think about it, and I'll listen to your answer when I get the Heavenly Fragment. If you behave well, maybe I'll let you go as soon as I'm happy. ”

"Wait, I have another question. Mu Chen asked lightly, "Who is your master?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't have anything to say. ”

After Sima Yang finished speaking, he grabbed Wang Orion and disappeared in front of the four of them.

After Sima Yang left, Mu Chen and the four of them sat down casually, thinking about how to get out.

"Who do you say Sima Yang is working for now?" Wu Yu said.

Li Dongyi shook his head and said, "I don't know." Now that all parties are looking for the Celestial Fragments, the road ahead of us is really difficult!"

"Let's look around for an exit. Mu Chen got up and said.

The four of them circled around this several times, looking at every tree and every stone several times, touching it several times, but there was no reaction at all.

Tired and angry, he grabbed a broken stone and threw it into the pool, scolding: "When Lao Tzu comes out, you will look good." ”

Before the words fell, I heard the stone fall into the pool with a thud, and then the originally calm water began to tumble violently, making a "gurgling" sound like boiling water.

"W-what's going on?" exclaimed Break Detachment, a little panicked.

Mu Chen quickly blocked in front of Wuyu and Li Dongyi, and said cautiously: "Be careful of the pool water!"

Just when the four of them were staring at the pool, a long thing suddenly jumped out of the tumbling pool, startling everyone.

"Ancient Fuji Spirit!"

I saw that this elongated object was an ancient vine that had been cultivated. The eyes, nose, and mouth have all been repaired to look like humans, but they look strange on this brown trunk.

Obviously, this is not an ancient vine spirit to be messed with.

Six vine tentacles suddenly grew from the bare trunk of the ancient vine spirit, and four of them rushed towards the four people on the edge of the pool.

"Stand back!"

Mu Chen shouted, and the Dragon Sword was transformed in his hand, resisting left and right

The attack of the vines protected Li Dongyi and Wuyu behind him.

"Ah Li, use karmic fire!"

The son fan next to him summoned a hand and released karmic fire. Tuan Tuan Gang of karmic fire enveloped the vines, and the vines suddenly stopped attacking. And it worked.

The vines were burned by the karmic fire and danced in the air, emitting puffs of black smoke.

"Roar!"

The trunks of the trees in the pool roared fiercely at the four of them.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, spare my life!" said Gutense, begging for mercy in pain.

"Ah Li, take the karmic fire. Mu Chen said.

After breaking away from the magic trick, the karmic fire broke away from the vine and drilled back into the child's fan.

Seeing that the karmic fire disappeared, the ancient vine spirit quickly withdrew the vine and hid it.

Mu Chen took a few steps forward and asked, "Why are you here?"

Gu Fuji Jing knew that he couldn't defeat these people in front of him, so he replied obediently: "I am an ancient vine spirit who has been cultivating here for thousands of years, and I have been living here." ”

"Isn't this Sima Yang's illusion?" Mu Chen muttered.

"Then why did you attack us?"

"You threw stones at me and made my house like this, I, can't I still be angry?" Gu Teng said aggrievedly, pointing to the rocks and dead trees by the pool.

"We didn't do it. ”

Mu Chen said lightly, at this moment he had already figured out a way to get out.

"If I'm guessing correctly, the exit to the illusion is in the pool. ”

"What do you say?" asked Li Dongyi.

Mu Chen smiled slightly and explained: "This ancient vine spirit was obviously not created by Sima Yang, but really lived in this waterhole. I think maybe Sima Yang thought it was just an ordinary pool of water, so he ignored it. But he didn't know that there was a thousand-year-old vine spirit living in it. ”

"So, the exit of the illusion must be in the pool. ”

"But how are we going to get in? Wuyu asked.

"Haha, this is going to ask the little brother Guteng. Mu Chen said with a smile.

"This ......" Gu Tengjing just wanted to refuse, but he saw the Duan Sheli next to Mu Chen playing with the child's fan, as if to say, if you don't take us in, I will burn you all.

Gu Fuji Jing trembled in fright, "Okay, okay, I'll take you in." ”

As he spoke, the ancient vine spirit stretched out two other vines and wrapped them around several times, enough for all four of them to stand up and fall to the ground.

"You hold on to my branches so you can breathe underwater. ”

I saw four tender green leaves growing on the vine, and the four of them sat cross-legged on the vine and grabbed the branches and leaves.

"Let's go!"

Gu Fuji Jing protected the four of them in front of him and slowly dived into the water.

The crowd dived down, and it was pitch black and completely invisible, until five minutes later, a light appeared in front of them. It seems that this is the exit.

The ancient vine spirit swam to the exit and stretched out the vine: "Everyone, I'm going to send you here." You must help me catch the man who destroyed my home and kill him, huh!"

"There will be a period later. ”

The vines passed through the cave and put the four Muchen on the ground steadily, and then returned to the water.

The four of Mu Chen went to the forest again, green and vibrant. Everyone breathed in the fresh air, much more comfortable than in the ancient vine forest.

"Brother Li, let's see where we are?"

The environment and scenery in this forest are almost the same, and the four Mu Chen, who have left the original road, don't know where they are now.

Li Dongyi took out the locator and map and looked at it carefully for a while, and said happily: "We are not far from the place on the fragmented map, you look here." ”

Li Dongyi said and showed the map to the three of them. At present, the four of Mu Chen are only ten kilometers away from the depths of the primeval forest, where the Heavenly Fragments are located.

"It's not far away, let's pick up the pace. ”

With that, the four of them quickly set off towards the finish line.

"Why are there any dangers encountered along the way? Brother Wang said that I haven't seen the white tiger, isn't it forbidden for the living to enter, this is a bit unscientific!" muttered as he walked.

Mu Chen glanced away, "Don't talk nonsense, you crow's mouth, if you really meet you, you will deal with it yourself." ”

"Don't, don't, I still have to rely on you to save me, hehe!" Breaking away lickingly touched Mu Chen's shoulder.

Just as the two were joking, the originally chattering forest suddenly became quiet, and it became extremely quiet, and even the sound of falling leaves could be heard.

"Shhhhh

Mu Chen and Duan Sheli picked up the Dragon Sword and Gongzi Fan and stood at one end and the other, sandwiching Wuyu and Li Dongyi in the middle. Focus.

Heavy footsteps slowly came from the front, until a white-fronted tiger appeared in front of Mu Chen and the others.

"White Tiger?"

Mu Chen saw that this tiger was snow-white and more than two meters tall, and thought to himself, could it be the white tiger in Wang Hunt's household account, the god of the forest in the mouths of the villagers?

It's just that in the face of this white tiger, Mu Chen didn't act. Because standing in front of them was a bloodied, seriously injured white tiger.

The white tiger stood a few meters away from Mu Chen with heavy steps and panting.

Although the white tiger glared fiercely at the four people in front of him and let out a low roar in his mouth, he was seriously injured and could no longer take the initiative to attack.

The man and the tiger were deadlocked.

"Why is this white tiger so seriously injured? It must be treated immediately!" Wu Yu, as a healer, looked at the white tiger distressedly, wanting to treat it, but he was afraid of the white tiger's attack.

Just under the stalemate, the weakened white tiger suddenly fell to the ground and fainted.

Mu Chen hurriedly protected Wuyu and walked to the side of the white tiger.
