elves want to live in my house

While Lin Li was thinking, there was a strange noise in the woods. Looking up, there was more purple mist in the woods, the visibility was very low, and the trees standing in the thick fog were a bit weird.

Xiao Yu had already walked into the edge of the woods and stepped in. Before Lin Li could stop him, the man had already disappeared inside.

Lin Li hurriedly chased after him, but it was already too late. In just a few seconds, the little fish in the mist had disappeared. He called out to the little fish but got no response.

After standing there and shouting for a long time, Lin Li decided to walk back first, and then think of another way out of the fog. After walking back for a while, he couldn't get out of the purple mist-filled woods.

Lin Li was a little tired from walking, so he randomly chose a tree to sit down and rest, thinking about how to get out of this weird fog. At this time, Xiao Bai climbed out of the bag and looked at the surrounding fog, feeling a little familiar.

Lin Li looked at Xiaobai's expression and said curiously: "Why, have you seen this fog?"

"No, it just feels a bit familiar, a bit like the psychedelic realm of Elf Country."

"A psychedelic realm?"

"Yes, I heard that a purple mushroom grows in a canyon in Elf Township. When mature, it will emit purple mist. If an animal accidentally encounters it, it will be lost in the mist. When the mist dissipates, the animal's body will appear in the mist. At the entrance of the canyon, the body also became a mummy.”

"Then does anyone go in?"

"Yes, there are a lot of them, but those people came out without encountering anything after going in. Of course, there are some who disappeared after going in, but those are only a few."

Lin Li raised his eyebrows and disappeared?

"Didn't show up at the exit?"

Xiaobai recalled the old man's description before and nodded.

"Yes, only animal carcasses will appear."

Looking at the fog in front of him, Lin Li sighed: The things in here are quite picky.

Throwing away the thoughts in his mind, Lin Li began to think about how to get out of this strange thick fog.

Or make a mark.

Thinking of this, Lin Lima quickly got up from the ground, took out the utility knife in her bag, and carved an arrow mark on the tree trunk behind her.

Stuff Xiaobai back into his bag, put on his backpack and walk in one direction, leaving marks as he goes.

An hour later, like most lost people, Lin Li returned to the same place. Lin Li did not give up. This time he chose the opposite direction, but in the end, he turned back to the same place and looked at what he had left behind with some irritability. Lin Li found that the mark seemed a little blurry, and only the head of the arrow was left.

Lin Li thought he was dazzled, and when he looked closer, he found that the carved area on the tree trunk was slowly healing again, but the healing speed was too slow, making it difficult to see clearly with the naked eye.

This tree is alive!

This discovery made Lin Li a little happy. Although it was useless, it was much better than staying the same.

Lin Li looked around the tree with doubts, but the result still disappointed Lin Li.

This is an ordinary tree. Except for its healing effect, everything else is no different from an ordinary tree. The leaves are ordinary, the color is ordinary, and even the soil is ordinary.

Lin Li sat down against the big tree a little decadently, staring at the psychedelic purple mist in front of his eyes in a daze. The surroundings were so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

At this time, a subtle sound came from her ears, and Lin Li immediately focused on her ears.

It was the sound of a beating heart, a little rapid, coming from inside the tree.

This astonishing discovery made Lin Li quickly move away from the big tree. Just like this, Lin Li kept staring at the big tree, but there was no strange movement in the tree.

Lin Li thought about it, took out the utility knife from his bag, and said to the big tree: "Show the prototype quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." After saying that, he made a gesture with the utility knife.

This pale threat seemed a little weak, and Lin Li also felt that he was a little mentally retarded, but unexpectedly, after Lin Li finished speaking, a childish voice came out of the tree,

"Don't kill me, I'm not a bad person."

"Then come out quickly and I will spare your life."

"I'm right here." After the tree finished speaking, it moved the two branches below, with a somewhat aggrieved tone.

Lin Li blinked a little and quickly asked other questions.

"You are the only one here." Lin Li quickly changed his words when he realized that this thing was not a human, "Are you the only tree here?"

Hearing Lin Li's words, the big tree quickly shook its branches and said, "My brothers are not far away. They will come to me soon."

It's like someone asking you if there is anyone at home, and then you say there is someone at home, and Lin Li just ignores it.

"Did you cause this mist, and where did you take my friends?"

The series of questions made the big tree in front of him, who was obviously lacking in intelligence, a little confused. The branches trembled even more. Lin Li was helpless and had to start asking questions again.

"I mean, did you do these things?" After speaking, he pointed at the fog to make the big tree in front of him more clear.

This time the big tree understood and said quickly: "No, we are just trees growing here."

"Then have you seen anyone like us passing by?"

The tree shook its head.

This tree doesn't look like a lie, which is strange. They didn't release the fog, and they didn't catch the people. Could it be that there are other people inside.

Thinking of this, Lin Li pointed the tip of the knife at the tree trunk, and the tree trembled quickly.

Before he could say anything, the tree began to explode.

"It's a good thing that mushrooms are very capable. They like to bring people in, and then stun them and use them as food reserves. I know where to find them. Don't kill me, I'm still useful."

Lin Li was originally planning to ask, but he didn't expect to get such a big secret, "Who is the mushroom spirit?"

"They grew up with us. Unlike us who are kind, they are very bad. They like to eat meat. They often use our movement to make outsiders get lost in the fog and make it easier for them to attack. I think your friends must be He was taken away by the mushroom spirits, who are just a bunch of villains.”

At this point, the tree was a little indignant and seemed to be very disapproving of their good neighbor's behavior.

"Then how to find them."

"They are not far away, just turn left at the fork in the road in front of you." After speaking, he pointed to the fork in the road that appeared at some unknown time.

Lin Li didn't look in the direction the tree was pointing, and approached the tree with a utility knife. The tree stopped moving, afraid to look at Lin Li's movements, and its branches trembled.

Seeing Shu's scared look, Lin Li smiled evilly.

"You can move, right? Then let's go together. Of course, you can also refuse, but you may not have a complete place."

After saying that, he gestured with the knife.

The tree trembled and looked at Lin Li fearfully.

"We don't get along very well with them, and there might be problems if we go."

"Hurry up, don't hesitate. If you keep talking, I might not be able to control my hand." He looked at the knife in his hand and stretched it towards the big tree.

Seeing that he was only one step away from the knife, Shu gave in and twisted his body. Shu shrank into a young man, as tall as Lin Li.

His skin was the color of tree trunks, his eyes were covered with green pupils, and he was surrounded by leaves. He looked at Lin Li with a fearful expression.

Lin Li looked around the tree.

"What's your name?"

"No name." Looking at Lin Li's disbelief, he added, "You can call me Shu."

It was a concise and clear title. Lin Li nodded.

"Let's go now."

Shu walked forward, and after walking for a while, he found that the only sound was his own footsteps. He turned around with some confusion and found Lin Li standing there.

"You didn't mean to show up."

"Yes, you go now, help me see if there is any friend of mine, and then I will rescue him."

"Ah, then..."

"Well, go and come back quickly. Let's gather here when you come back. If you dare not come, I will secretly kill you at night..." After that, he took out the knife and made signs.

Shu nodded and hurried away.

Looking at Shuluo's fleeing figure, Xiaobai in the bag spoke.

"Let him go like this. What if he doesn't come back?"

"What he said is full of loopholes. It's too dangerous for us to stay here. It's better to let him go back."

"You mean he lied?"

"Half-truths, half-truths."

"Then what's next?"

"Of course, we need to check the environment here. Now the fog has dispersed a little. We need to figure it out now so that we can move more easily later."

As he said that, he put on his backpack and walked towards a spooky path. Just as he was about to walk in, he stopped again, deliberately leaving a few footprints, and turned into the bushes on the side.

As soon as Lin Li walked away with his front legs, a group of colorful mushrooms that were as tall as a human appeared on his back legs and came over menacingly, holding primitive weapons in their hands.

The mushrooms headed by the ones in front did not find anyone there. A group of mushrooms pointed their axe-like weapons at one of the green people.

"Didn't you say there was a person here? Why didn't you see anything?"

His rough voice didn't match his appearance at all.

The person surrounded by mushrooms is the tree he left just now.

Shu's face looked a little ugly and he defended:

"You were clearly still here just now."

He looked around in disbelief, and finally saw the footprints left by Lin Li just when Mushroom was about to lose his patience.

He quickly shouted: "Here, she left from here, that human being."

The people headed by Mushroom looked in the direction pointed by the tree. Sure enough, there was a footprint there. It was very obvious and seemed to have been left just now.

"It seems you didn't lie."

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the mushrooms under his hands stood neatly, waiting for the leader's order.

"A few people just broke into our territory. We have already caught one of them, and now the other one has also been found. If we catch the other one, we don't have to worry about food in the winter. So, go catch it now, absolutely. You can’t let people go, understand.”

"understand!"

After saying that, a group of mushrooms ran towards the path aggressively, while the tree stayed in place.
