Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The mountain Qin Feng saw was very strange. On the back of the mountain, there was a long gentle slope.

    What makes people very strange is that there are dozens of meters of dense forest on the mountain that are completely barren of grass. The jungle stands abruptly on the gentle slope. The trees are tall and leafy, so dark that you can't see the depth.

    This forest only occupies one-half of the area of ??this gentle slope. On the other side of the gentle slope, it is full of flowers. Even if they are far away, you can smell the faint fragrance in the wind.

    "Mr. Lu, why don't you stay there today?"

    After resting for a while on the ridge, Qian Yuandan pointed to the open space below and said, "It's too dangerous in the woods. How about we stay in the open space for one night?"

    In the afternoon, I heard Yao Er talking about the team being wiped out in the jungle. Qian Yuandan and others looked at the jungle with a hint of fear.

    "Yao Er, what do you think?"

    Although Lu Fenglei had the highest cultivation level among these people, he was not familiar with this mountain at all. He did not make the decision rashly, but looked at Yao Er who was walking behind.

    "That empty space is very suitable, but why is nothing growing?" Yao Er looked at the empty space, and for some reason, he felt a sense of danger in his heart.

    "Maybe there are rocks below?" Lu Fenglei waved his hand and said, "Let's go and take a closer look. If it's not suitable, choose another place"

    There are many legends about the Three Realms Mountain outside, and it is also ranked first among the Four Jedi. Even if Lu Fenglei has entered the realm of energy transformation, he does not dare to be careless in this dangerous mountain.

    "Damn, this old guy is very cautious!"

    After hearing Lu Fenglei's words, Qin Feng couldn't help but cursed in his heart.  Zhang Hu, who was walking behind Lu Fenglei, also looked back at Qin Feng, with a hint of anxiety on his face.

    Qin Feng winked at Zhang Hu, telling him not to worry in this mountain full of dangers.  There are many opportunities, and Lu Fenglei might be bitten by some poisonous insect in the next moment.

    But Qin Feng also knows that the chance of this happening is absolutely slim.

    ¡°Because their kung fu has reached the level of Lu Fenglei, they are extremely sensitive to crises. They can often make predictions in advance before a crisis arrives.

    Just like Qin Feng now.  He could already feel the air of death permeating the jungle, and his heart was throbbing, and his heartbeat was much faster than usual.

    Qin Feng has this feeling even before he enters Huajin. He believes that Lu Fenglei should also notice it.  The idea of ??using the man-eating tree to deal with Lu Fenglei may not work.

    As the saying goes, "Looking up the mountain is like running to death." Although the mountain ridge looked very close to the gentle slope, the group of people still walked for nearly an hour before arriving at the gentle slope.

    At this time, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the falling afterglow sprinkled on the hillside, giving the entire hillside a layer of red color.  Especially the leaves of the flowers look blood red.

    "It is indeed the protruding part of the rock. This should be a whole big rock, not even a crack in the stone"

    Standing in the open space, Yao Er picked up the wooden knife in his hand and dug into the ground a few times. Suddenly he stopped and said, "Something's wrong, this it's a bit too quiet here!"

    ¡°That¡¯s right, there was no lack of movement along the way!¡±

    After hearing what Yao Er said.  Qian Ning, who was slumped on the ground tiredly, suddenly jumped up and said, "Why are there no mosquitoes anymore? What the hell is this place?"

    There are many mosquitoes in the mountains. Along the way, everyone saw many venomous snakes and insects that were almost impossible to name, and there were also roars of tigers and monkeys in their ears, but they stood in this place.  But it was so quiet that it made people a little nervous.

    Qian Ning had been bitten by an insect on his hand before, and he was cursing all the way, but now he could no longer see the mosquitoes, and his expression became more and more panicked.

    "Aww" A wolf howled in the distant mountains, followed by another roar. The two voices seemed to be confronting each other.

    "Fortunately, I'm finally a little popular." Master Ning patted his chest. The quietness when he first arrived here really shocked him.

    ¡°You can¡¯t go to that place in the woods!¡±

    Yao Er stood in the open space, looking at the jungle dozens of meters away, with a worried look in his eyes, and said: "I don't know why, I feel that it is very dangerous there, and I can't get out if I go in"

    "Frequently walking around in crises seems to improve people's sensing ability" Qin Feng glanced at Yao Er with some surprise. He didn't expect that Yao Er could also detectFeeling of danger.

    "You're right, I felt it too!" Lu Fenglei nodded and looked attentively, but because it was getting late, he didn't see anything.

    The branches and leaves of the forest are extremely lush, each big tree is tens of meters high. The branches, leaves and vines completely block the forest, and the originally dim sunset cannot shine in at all.

    As for the ground, it was covered with fallen dead leaves, tens of meters apart. Not only could you smell the floral fragrance of the sea of ??flowers, but the smell of decaying tree branches and leaves was also mixed in.

    "Master Lu, I suggest that we go back to the top of the mountain. This this place always gives me a very dangerous feeling"

    Looking at the jungle, Yao Er's heart beat very fast. The dark jungle seemed like a monster's big mouth, which could swallow them whole.

    "Aren't we going to pass there tomorrow? I think, Yao Er, you should go explore the road first"

    Although Qian Ning was also scared, he really couldn't walk at this moment. If he was asked to turn back and climb up, it would simply kill him, so he immediately retorted.

    "Noit's very dangerous there. Iif I go, I might not be able to come back!"

    Yao Er shook his head repeatedly, with a look of fear in his eyes, because he discovered that from the depths of the jungle, a glistening white light actually came from.

    "Yao Er, what did you find?" Lu Fenglei saw that Yao Er looked wrong and asked quickly.

    "Ghostwill-o'-wisp" Yao Er pointed at the woods, his expression changed drastically.

    "What? Will-o'-the-wisp?" After hearing Yao Er's words, Lu Fenglei quickly looked forward. Sure enough, in the dark depths of the woods, there were dots of white light flashing.

    "Thiswhy is there a will-o'-the-wisp here?" Qian Ning, who was sitting on the ground like a dead dog, suddenly jumped up.

    ¡°A lot of people should have died inside!¡±

    Yao Er took a deep breath and said: "Wisps will only appear in places where there are many dead people. II suspect that the forest evolved from tree spirits"

    In Sanjie Mountain, the most widely rumored ones are ghost mist, tree spirits and flower demons. Yao Er has seen the power of ghost mist with his own eyes, but he has never been able to see tree spirits and flower demons. Legend has it that he has seen these two.  Everyone died.

    ¡°Isn¡¯t that damn tree spirit a man-eating tree?¡±

    Seeing the solemn expressions on Lu Fenglei and Yao Er's faces, Qin Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of intellectual superiority. This technological development has indeed explained many ancient mysteries.

    It¡¯s like the will-o¡¯-the-wisps that a few people are talking about, which are actually the fluorescence emitted by the bones of dead people or animals.

    The scientific explanation of will-o'-the-wisp is phosphorus fire, because the bones of people and some things contain phosphorus. When phosphorus interacts with water or alkali, phosphine is produced. It is a gas that can spontaneously ignite. It is light and can move when the wind blows.

    In rural areas or next to some tombs, phosphorus fires often appear. When people walk, the wind brought up will drive it to move behind. The scene is really scary, so it is called "will-o'-the-wisp" by those who are timid or superstitious.  ".

    "Mr. Lu, I I think we should go back!" Qian Yuandan also had a look of fear on his face. He had not yet enjoyed the glory and wealth of his family, and he was not willing to die here without knowing anything.

    "Young Master, don't be busy now!" Lu Fenglei snorted coldly and said, "I would like to meet the so-called tree demon and see if you can do anything to me?"

    Lu Fenglei had seen descriptions of man-eating trees from some records of the Qian family's exploration of the Four Jedi, describing in detail the vines that could entangle people and then suck up all the blood.

    ¡°However, the record also states that if you react quickly enough and cut off the vines in time, your life will not be in danger.

    When the expedition team encountered the man-eating tree, they were unprepared at first, and several people were sucked dry by the man-eating tree. Later, with the help of several Huajin masters, the man-eating tree no longer existed.  Couldn't hurt anyone's life.

    On the contrary, the flower demon is more harmful to people, because the flower demon grows on the ground, with very wide branches and leaves. When it wraps people up, it will spray out a juice that corrodes the human body.

    During the last time we explored the Three Realms Mountains, there were dozens of masters from the Qian family who died at the hands of the flower demon, far more than the man-eating tree.

    So when Lu Fenglei heard that Yao Er said it might be a tree spirit, he lost his fear. Martial arts practitioners are usually very courageous, so he actually had the idea of ????exploring it.

    "Mr. Lu, don't be careless!" Qian Yuandan dissuaded: "It's getting late now, how about we retreat to the mountain first and wait until tomorrow to explore?"

    "Young Master, there is nothingYes, I will be careful!  "

    Lu Fenglei waved his hand. There was nothing in this world that could make him feel curious and dangerous. Now this forest actually put a lot of pressure on him, which made Lu Fenglei a little eager to give it a try.

    Qian Yuandan did not have the right to order Lu Fenglei. After hearing Lu Fenglei's words, he could only say: "Well, Mr. Lu, if nothing can be done, go back immediately!"

    "I know, you guys stand back!"

    Lu Fenglei nodded, flipped his wrist, and the scimitar used to open the road suddenly appeared in his right hand, and walked carefully towards the woods.

    The distance was tens of meters, and it was downhill again. Within a few minutes, Lu Fenglei was close to the outskirts of the woods. Lu Fenglei, who was quite tall, looked unusually small under those towering trees¡ª¡ª

    PS: There¡¯s something going on tonight, so I might just update it!
