"Why does this place look like a ghost forest?" Ning Lang leaned towards Duan Ye beside him with some creepiness, feeling that this forest was so weird that it made him uneasy.
"Yeah, I have the same feeling." Luo Fei nodded and said, feeling a little scared in his heart.
The trees in this place only have branches but no leaves, and these branches stretch out everywhere like ghost claws. In addition to the branches above that are intertwined like a giant net, there are some branches that are shaped like claws a little lower down.
Moreover, there are dense vines growing on these branches. Those thin vines hang down from the branches in the air and are covered with dense fine hairs, which is very strange.
Feng Jiu glanced at the forest ahead, and then said to the others, "This is the extent of the information I have, and I know nothing about what's inside. So, I'll say it again, you must be careful."
"Yeah." Several people nodded and asked, "It's getting late now. Should we go in tomorrow? Or should we go in now?"
Hearing this, she glanced at a few people and said, "Everyone is tired today, let's rest here first! We will leave tomorrow morning, but don't light a fire here to attract people's attention."
"We know." They responded and found a place to sit down and rest.
"Don't wander around here. I'll go ahead and explore the way." Feng Jiu instructed, and then said to Tun Yun, "You stay and guard."
"Ah." Tunyun let out a low howl and lay down beside him.
"I'll go with you!" Duan Ye said, walking to Feng Jiu's side: "They can just rest here, I'll go with you."
Seeing the serious look on the baby-faced Duan Ye's face, Feng Jiu smiled and said, "Okay, let's go!"
"Be careful." The other three people warned.
"Know."
The two waved their hands and walked towards the woods in front. However, as soon as they walked in, they realized something was wrong. It was as if the branches were moving. At that moment, a rustling sound was heard, and a human face emerged from the tree, with eyes, nose and mouth. The ghost claws formed by the surrounding branches actually stretched out at this moment, surrounding the two of them.
Seeing this scene, Ning Lang, Luo Fei, and Song Ming were startled. They quickly stood up and ran over. Before they got close, Feng Jiu stopped them and said, "Don't come over!"
As soon as the voice fell, there was a sharp sound of air passing by, and the branches that surrounded them were cut off and scattered on the ground. Green liquid spurted out from the branches, and when it splashed on the ground, it made a hissing sound and corroded a hole in the ground. The human faces that appeared on the tree trunk seemed to howl in pain, and then the human faces that had appeared shrank back and disappeared into the tree trunk, as if the scene they saw before was just their illusion.
Seeing this scene, Feng Jiu and Duan Ye were shocked and quickly withdrew from inside and returned to Ning Lang and the others.
"The trees in this forest have become spirits!"
Fengjiu said this in astonishment, with disbelief still in her eyes. This was the first time she saw a tree turned into a monster. Although she knew that the plants and trees in this place could also become monsters, seeing it with her own eyes was a different feeling than imagining it.
