As soon as Qiang Wanzhou moved, he stood up to follow.
Chu Liuyue turned back and shook her head gently.
Qiang Wanzhou pursed her lips and had no choice but to stay where she was, but her eyes were fixed on Chu Liuyue, as if she was afraid that she would encounter any danger.
After all, along the way, this phantom mist forest was indeed very strange.
Thinking of the scene he saw before, Qiang Wanzhou felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Chu Liuyue ignored him and walked forward.
I don't know if it was affected by the power of the ninth-grade beast, but the strange miasma never spread here.
The woods within the radius still look very normal.
Chu Liuyue stepped forward on the thick fallen leaves.
Tuanzi jumped on her shoulders, turned around, and stared blankly at the thunder gathering in the sky.
Chu Liuyue patted it comfortingly:
"As soon as the matter here is resolved, we will go back immediately."
Not only the dumplings, she also wanted to continue watching them.
If it weren't for Jiang Yucheng
As Chu Liuyue walked, she listened carefully to the direction from which the sound came.
After walking some distance, the voice got closer and closer.
Finally, Chu Liuyue stood in front of a tree surrounded by two people, staring at the ground.
It seems to be down here!
On the surface, this place is covered with thick piles of dead leaves, no different from other places.
But standing here, you can hear Jiang Yucheng's painful moans clearly coming up from below!
Chu Liuyue's mind moved and she waved her sleeves.
Fallen leaves flew up one after another, and underneath there was a protruding tree root.
There is dust and moss accumulated on it. If you don't look carefully, you really can't tell what it is.
Chu Liuyue listened carefully and was almost certain that Jiang Yucheng was under this tree.
I don't know how he got down here.
Chu Liuyue thought and knocked on the root of the tree.
Tuk Tuk.
Jiang Yucheng's voice suddenly stopped.
Apparently, he heard the sound.
Chu Liuyue sneered.
According to Jiang Yucheng's cautious and suspicious character, when he heard this sound, what he thought of was definitely not asking for help, but how to avoid danger.
Now if you give him ten courages, he probably won't dare to charge forward.
Chu Liuyue knocked twice more.
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
This time, Jiang Yucheng became quieter.
Instead, the tree roots began to move slowly.
Chu Liuyue raised her eyes and took a look.
The tree next to me is also a curly-leaf fir.
It looks like you want to leave
The roots of the trees moved, and the soil and moss on them fell away.
A faint fishy smell filled the air.
Chu Liuyue frowned slightly.
This smell actually smells a bit like blood, and it also smells like something rotten.
Suddenly, her eyes froze and she looked at the several strands that were pulled out from the ground and exposed.
The thin wall is almost transparent, filled with red liquid, and it is still surging slowly!
It's like blood!
Chu Liuyue's pupils narrowed.
She had seen the roots of curly-leaf fir trees before, but she had never seen anything like this!
Chu Liuyue took a deep breath, staring closely at the tree root that looked like a bloody hand, and the scenes she had seen before kept reappearing in her mind.
correct!
The roots of those curly-leaf fir trees seem to be glowing red too!
It's just that those trees were not as old as the current tree, and the roots were naturally much smaller, and she didn't look carefully at the time.
Do those tree roots actually look like this
Chu Liuyue took half a step back, drew out the dagger, and stabbed it directly into the root of the tree!
laugh!
A burst of red juice burst out!
The strong smell of blood rushed over instantly!
Chu Liuyue was shocked: There was really blood in this!
Although it may not be pure blood, it is definitely mixed with a lot of real blood!
Otherwise, the color and taste would never be the same!
Where did this blood come from
Thinking of the cold and strange scene she saw when she turned back before, Chu Liuyue felt a chill in her back.
Could it be
those people.
Dahuangze is full of dangers, but it is also full of temptations.
Every year, countless practitioners come here.
But only a small number of people can survive.
Most of the remaining people were actually buried in the Great Wasteland.
If the curly leaf cedar really relies on sucking human blood as its own nutrients,
That vast lush forest of phantom mist—
Chu Liuyue's eyebrows jumped hard!
Boom!
The second thunder struck down hard!
Chu Liuyue immediately looked back.
The dazzling light is almost blinding.
The power of this thunder is obviously stronger than the first one!
Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes and vaguely saw that the colors in the lower section of the barrier were quickly dissipating and converging towards the top!
Finally merged into that bright light!
This should be the magical beast absorbing the power of its own barrier to resist the thunder, right
The transparent range of the barrier became wider, but from Chu Liuyue's side, he could still only see a fallen leaf and some stones inside.
Apart from that, there is nothing else.
Chu Liuyue was slightly disappointed.
It seems that we have to wait a while longer before we can see what the monster inside looks like.
Stab—
There was the sound of something being dragged on the ground.
Chu Liuyue immediately turned her head and looked at the tree root that she had opened a hole in.
The roots of the tree were gushing blood, and the bright red liquid was flowing everywhere. It soon became a large area, and it looked very scary.
Chu Liuyue's movements seemed to stimulate it to a certain extent.
It curled up, and the surge became faster.
The remaining tree roots are being dragged out of the ground one after another.
The whole tree became swaying, as if it was about to run away as soon as the roots were completely pulled out of the ground.
Chu Liuyue's eyes moved slightly, she clenched the dagger in her hand, and was about to take action again, when she suddenly saw a piece of rag hanging on the root of the tree.
Although it was stained with mud, it could still be seen that the fabric was new and very luxurious.
—Those are Jiang Yucheng’s clothes!
He is indeed down here!
Looking at the trace of blood stained on the fabric, Chu Liuyue raised a sneer on her lips.
It seems that Jiang Yucheng is not having an easy time down there.
Maybe the roots of the tree are swallowing his blood
A familiar scent is getting closer and closer.
Chu Liuyue stabbed the tree root again!
The roots of the tree twisted even more fiercely!
A large piece of land suddenly lifted up!
Half a figure was suddenly dragged out from below!
It’s Jiang Yucheng!
His upper body was tightly bound by the forks of the tree roots, leaving only one arm still able to move, and his lower body was still stuck in the ground.
His body was covered in blood and he looked very miserable.
But he was still very alert. The moment he came out, he immediately waved the long knife in his hand and struck at Chu Liuyue!
Chu Liuyue avoided it lightly and said with a smile:
"Master Jiang, what are you doing?"
Jiang Yucheng hesitated for a moment, and then he saw clearly the smiling girl in front of him.
"Chu Liuyue?!"
