After failing the course, I was teased by the boss

"Is this tree a spirit?" Sun Yuanning quickly pulled up Ding Yi who had fallen to the ground, but they were already blocked by the tree net behind them.

Chi Yunyang was dragged into Yi Yanlu's arms, his nostrils were filled with a clear breath, he withdrew his hand and took a step back, thanking him in a low voice.

The faces of the blood-stained people were not very good, especially Ding Yi. Although she was pulled up, she was completely soaked and trembling with her shoulders in her arms.

Everything in front of them was beyond everyone's expectations, and they were like worms trapped in a bottle.

The tree net is constantly expanding, and the spreading branches cover a large area of ​​vision.The people were gathered tighter and tighter, and the rain in the sky showed no signs of stopping.

"There is no way out." Wu Tongxu leaned on Sun Yuanning's back and said nervously, "Did we violate some taboo? Could this exam be a dead end?"

"There can't be a dead end in the exam, there must be a solution."

Chi Yunyang watched the brown sharp branch approaching with blood on it, his head was dizzy, and the smell of corpses in the rain was suffocating.

"Ah! Come here, the branch is here!" Ding Yi howled, his wet hair stuck to his forehead in a mess.

Everyone is gathered together, there is very little room to move, and everyone is looking for a way to escape.

"It would be great if there was an axe." Sun Yuanning raised his foot to kick the branch that was as thick as the man's arm, but the branch just "creaked" and didn't even lose a bit of skin. Instead, it moved even more violently.

"If I had an axe, I would have chopped down all the trees in this forest first." Xie Yunqin glared at Ding Yi with anxiety on her face, "You stepped on my shoes."

Ding Yi moved aside in fear, his voice was as soft as a mosquito: "I'm sorry..."

Sun Yuanning reprimanded the two of them angrily: "What time is it, and I still care about what is there and what is not."

The circle formed by the crowd shrank smaller and smaller, almost shoulder to shoulder, and the red rain on the top of the head seemed to have leaked a big hole in the sky.

Chi Yunyang wore a hat half-covered his eyes, and his skin was not stained with any rainwater. He felt that the soil under his feet became soft, and their bodies were constantly sinking.

The branches swayed and made violent noises, Yi Yanlu's fingertips touched the back of Chi Yunyang's hand, and Chi Yunyang turned to look at him in astonishment.

His thin lips were slightly parted, and no sound came out of his mouth, but Chi Yunyang understood his lips.

"Is it a rope!"

Chi Yunyang quickly opened the backpack on his back, and took out a neatly bundled black climbing rope from inside.At one end of the rope was a sharp silver hook.

Seeing the rope, Xie Yunqin's expression of panic faded a bit, and she hurriedly said, "Quickly throw the rope onto the branch above!"

"I'll do it." Sun Yuanning took the rope from Chi Yunyang's hand, and swung his arms vigorously into the air.

The hooked end of the rope drew an arc in the air, and landed steadily on the branch of the big tree outside the tree net. After a few turns, it was fixed firmly.

It is easy for people to lose their composure in a panic situation, thanks to Yi Yanlei's reminder.Everyone has a life.

"Quick, grab the rope and climb out of the tree net!" Chi Yunyang said loudly.

The tree net seemed to be conscious, aware that they wanted to escape from above, and several thick branches entangled and flew upwards, trying to fill the huge gap above.

Xie Yunqin reacted very quickly, and was the first to grab the rope, stepped on the gap between the tree nets, and jumped out from above.

After her, Chen Lijia also escaped smoothly, but when she arrived at Ding Yi, there was a problem.

Ding Yi had no strength in his hands, and he slid down as soon as he grabbed the rope.Tried several times and still the same.

Her face was ashen, and there was indescribable despair in her voice: "You go out first, I will rest and recover my strength." Zou Pei beside her was also depressed, and she lowered her head and did not speak.

Wu Tongxu was not polite either, holding the rope and jumping out with difficulty.

When it was Chi Yunyang's turn, the tree net was already close to their bodies, and the space above their heads could only narrowly accommodate one person's shoulders.

Their movements were still slow.

Chi Yunyang stood outside the tree net, anxiously looking at the four people still trapped in the tree net.

After Chi Yunyang and Sun Yuanning also came out, the space above their heads narrowed a bit.It is already difficult to accommodate people.

Ding Yi's face was covered with snot and tears, and he gritted his teeth and grabbed the rope, but the other end of the rope shook, and the branch that was tied to it couldn't bear the pressure and was broken from the root.

It broke off at the hook and fell on a nearby branch.An empty rope fell to Ding Yi's feet.

"It's over, it's over." Ding Yi fell to his knees and grabbed the climbing rope covered in mud.What is held in the hand seems to be the last hope.But this hope is gone.

Xie Yunqin said urgently: "Try to throw the rope out, we are pulling it outside! Don't give up yet."

Ding Yi wiped away his tears, braced himself up a bit, and threw the rope out of his hand.But after several attempts, the rope that lost its hook fell in mid-air.

Zou Pei, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said softly, "Why do you bother me?"

Zou Pei's abnormality attracted the attention of everyone present.

"Zou Pei, what's wrong with you..."

Ding Yi took a small step back in fear, and his back touched the tree net.There is no place to hide at all.

Zou Pei was expressionless, and stepped forward to grab Ding Yi's neck.

Ding Yi is taller than Zou Pei, but Zou Pei's hands are surprisingly strong.A pair of hands with long nails clasped Ding Yi's neck tightly.

"Okay... so uncomfortable." Ding Yi waved her arms wildly, and her nails scratched Zou Pei's cheek.Zou Pei was indifferent.It seems that there is no pain at all.

The few people standing outside the tree net were shocked when they saw Zou Pei who was suddenly stunned.

Xie Yunqin shouted: "Zou Pei, are you crazy? Let go!"

Ding Yi was pinched so hard that he couldn't breathe, rolled his eyes and moaned indistinctly in pain.

Zou Pei didn't blink her eyes, her face was extremely ferocious, the red rainwater flowed down her cheeks, and she seemed to be a different person for a while.

"Why do you want me to die alone. I'm so lonely here, can you come and accompany me?" Zou Pei's voice was crazy, revealing a faint sadness.

Chi Yunyang noticed that Zou Pei's condition was not right, and a bad guess came to his mind, suicide forest, could it be...

Yi Yanlei also realized the same problem, and said, "The present Zou Pei is not the real person, she is possessed by the ghost in this forest."

Wu Tongxu stared with disbelief on his face: "Is such a thing possible?"

Chi Yunyang squatted on the ground, flipped through the things in his backpack, took out a box of matches after a while, stood up and said, "Ding Yi and Zou Pei are both dangerous in this way."

Sun Yuanning looked at the matchbox in Chi Yunyang's hand, and stopped him: "Do you want to burn the tree net? This is not possible."

Chi Yunyang took out a match and asked him, "Otherwise?"

"It's still raining now, so we can't light a fire." Xie Yunqin reminded from the side.

"That's not necessarily true." Chi Yunyang held up the matchbox.

As soon as he nodded, a match was struck, and a cluster of small flames ignited.He threw the match through the gap in the tree net.

The flame touched the wet grass on the ground, not only did it not go out, but it also ran like crazy.Zou Pei's whole body was getting hotter and hotter, and the flames almost burned her feet in a blink of an eye.

The tree net was contaminated with sparks and burned immediately.From a distance, the tree net looks like an orange-red fire net.

Zou Pei's body couldn't bear the high temperature brought by the flames, so he loosened his hands and let go of Ding Yi's neck.

Ding Yi was already in a semi-conscious state, his body was tilted and he almost fell to the ground.He took a deep breath.

The ignited tree net shook its branches, and Zou Pei let out a scream, as if the flames were burning on her own body.

"It's so hot, why is there a fire here!"

Zou Pei seemed to have regained consciousness, seeing the situation in front of him so flustered that he couldn't speak clearly.

Sun Yuanning outside the tree net said urgently: "Zou Pei, Ding Yi, the tree net is starting to fall off, come out quickly."

Only then did Zou Pei recall his abnormal behavior just now, and his expression was still a little dazed.She looked up and saw the crimson finger prints on Ding Yi's neck.

Guilt enveloped the whole body for a moment.

Ding Yi coughed for a long time and was finally able to speak. She comforted her hoarse voice: "Cough, Zou Pei, I'm fine. Come here and help me, I'm a little dizzy."

Zou Pei nodded again and again, helped up Ding Yi who was unsteady, and carefully walked out from under the fallen tree net.After they came out, the tree net was completely burned by the fire, and the black ashes fell on the ground and were washed away by the red rain.

"There is no danger." Xie Yunqin sighed: "What should we do now, the rain is too heavy, if there is such a ghost tree in front, it will be over."

Chi Yunyang picked up the climbing rope on the ground, wrapped it up and stuffed it into his backpack, "It's not an option to stay where you are all the time."

Zou Pei carefully supported Ding Yi, still thinking that Ding Yi was injured because of himself.

"Hey, Jin Ming really died just like that." Sun Yuanning shook his head helplessly.The scene of Jin Ming's death was so horrifying that he still had lingering fears in his heart.

"Blame himself." Chen Lijia, who had always said very little, suddenly said, "It's common sense that you can't expose your skin at will in the forest."

Ding Yi shook his body coldly, and said softly: "You can't say that, Jin Ming is very pitiful."

Chen Lijia glanced at Ding Yi, shook her head and sighed: "Now instead of sympathizing with others, let's look at ourselves first."

"What do you mean?" Ding Yi lowered her head inexplicably, and saw that the wound on her right palm miraculously stopped bleeding, but the wound became very strange.

Zou Pei also leaned closer to look at Ding Yi's hand, and was taken aback.

Ding Yi's wound was about three centimeters long and a bit deep, but what emerged from the wound was not flesh and blood, but strips of tissue similar to bark.

Everyone hid under the tree, their faces looked a little embarrassed.

"This...my hand!" Ding Yi desperately rubbed the wound on her palm, but she couldn't feel any pain.
