i can hear your voice

Ruopu shook his hand and shook off the dead mosquito. "What did you hear?"

Shi Yan: "Ruoyouruuowu's voice is a bit like singing. It just appeared."

"I didn't hear it." Ruopu took out his phone, "May I ask someone else?"

Shi Yan nodded.

Ruo Pu asked in the group: Has anyone heard the singing?

He described the characteristics of the singing, and soon some people responded that they heard it. Ruo Pu paid attention and said that all he heard were alienated people.

The guide Wancai is also an alienated person, he said: I heard it too, but I didn't hear this sound when I passed here last time.

The last time he passed here was 20 days ago. At that time, he entered the ghost forest from Gwacheon Town. When he came out of the forest, he didn't walk, so he didn't pass here.

Ouyang Chun: The voice seems to be coming from the forest. It seems not far from here. Shall we go and have a look?

——Ouyang Chun joined this operation because she is a plant-type ability user, and her ability will be very useful in the forest.

Wancai: I don't recommend walking around at night.

Pei Yannian also said: Let's go again tomorrow morning, everyone be more vigilant tonight.

The chat group gradually quieted down. When Ruo Pu heard that Pei Yannian and Wan Cai had left the room, they both went to the hotel owner and asked him about the sound.

The boss was reluctant to say it at first, but Pei Yannian showed his certificate from the Central State Ability Department, and the boss immediately changed his attitude.

Boss: "I'm not a person with abilities, so I can't hear the voice you are talking about. However, I think an incident that happened before may be related to this voice. Three days ago, someone went out at night and never came back. That person is an alienated person." Or, he didn’t bring any luggage when he went out, so he shouldn’t have gone far, but we couldn’t find him.”

Pei Yannian asked: "The person didn't come back, and the body was not found?"

The boss shook his head: "No, he's missing."

Ruo Pu quietly tells Shi Yan what he eavesdropped on.

Shi Yan thought for a while: "If you can't hear it, it must not be a sound wave, but a supernatural power? Is there any power that is only effective for alienated people?"

Ruopu guessed: "Psychic ability? Song Mingqing said that it is easier to influence animals. Alienated people may be closer to animals than supernatural beings?"

"Well, it's possible. We encountered difficulties before we started," Shi Yan said, "This will slow down our speed. I want to see what that thing is." This operation is mainly for his brother, He didn't want to get off to a bad start.

Ruopu hesitated for a moment, and said: "Okay, let's go together, but how can we go out without being discovered by others? ——They will hear our footsteps."

Shi Yan frowned slightly: "...Forget it, let's go tomorrow morning."

The two took turns to take a bath. While Ruo Pu was taking a bath, he heard Shi Yan's heartbeat change, and he turned into a cat. Then he quietly left the room and ran downstairs quickly. It is much lighter and escapes everyone's ears.

Ruopu hurriedly ran out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and rushed to the balcony, it was still too late to see the big cat, but he heard that it left the hotel and went to the rain and fog forest.

Ruo Pu rushed back to the room to get dressed, and then opened the door to go out. He didn't make a sound, because he changed the frequency of the sound wave and made it into a frequency that normal people can't hear.

He walked out of the hotel without a sound, and chased in the direction Shi Yan left.

A quarter of an hour later, he heard the sound of splashing water coming from the big cat. It sounded like the big cat was fighting with something. Soon it became quiet, the sound of the big cat's heartbeat disappeared, but its opponent still...

Ruo Pu's mind was blank, but he was only in a trance for a while, then he focused on the sonic radar - Shi Yan had other forms without a heartbeat, and then he "saw" a long strip of something that he didn't know what it was The thing, it lay there, lifelike, but motionless.

After 2 minutes, he arrived at his destination, which was a small river next to the ghost forest. He used the flashlight on his mobile phone to shine on the thing he scanned with the sonic radar. On the river bank, a long strip of translucent jelly lay on the grass. On it, a crocodile about three meters in length was wrapped inside it, and the crocodile was still struggling——the life signs that Ruopu heard just now came from this crocodile.

Ruo Pu hurried over: "Shi Yan, you let it out, I'll kill it!"

The jelly didn't move. Ruo Pu noticed that the crocodile was not struggling hard. No, it should be said that its struggle was gradually weakening. After about 1 minute, the crocodile stopped completely, and blood flowed from the corner of its mouth.

When the breath of the crocodile completely disappeared, the jelly cracked and moved aside, then gathered and solidified again, and after a while, long black and white hair grew—it turned back into a cat.

Ruopu squatted down and wanted to hug it, but the big cat avoided it. Ruopu was a little lost, and the big cat said: "My fur is dirty." And it was wet by the river.

"It's okay, go back and wash." Then Ruopu was taken aback, "You can talk?"

"Well, the degree of fusion between my various alienated forms is getting higher and higher." Big Cat said, "What about this crocodile?"

"Shall I smash it?" In fact, Ruo Pu thought that Shi Yan would eat the crocodile just now, but after that, Shi Yan didn't eat it, and he thought it was normal not to eat it. Shi Yan definitely didn't like to eat this kind of thing. Mutated mice are just forced to.

Big cat: "Okay, smash it up. If you stay here, it will be eaten by other animals, which may induce them to mutate."

Ruopu nodded, but did not move immediately, but looked towards the direction of the hotel: "No, someone knocked on the door of our room..."

Big Cat: "Then keep this crocodile and let them all see it."

"Okay, then I'll call them to come over?"

"Ah."

Half an hour later, under the guidance of Ruo Pu's phone call, Pei Yannian and others came to the river.

The flashlight beams focused on Ruo Pu, and Pei Yannian asked a little nervously, "Where's Shi Yan?"

Big Cat: "I'm here."

Pei Yannian lowered his gaze and saw a big long-haired cat squatting on the grass next to it. Others saw it too, and everyone was surprised. They didn't expect Shi Yan to be able to transform into a cat, and a cat that could speak human language.

Pei Yannian walked up to one person and one cat, bent down to touch the big cat's head, the big cat let him touch it, then got up and walked away.

Unable to pet cats, everyone turned their attention to the big crocodile next to them.

Ouyang Chun: "Is it the singing we heard?"

"Yes, it's a mutated crocodile, it should have come out of the forest." At this moment, Ruopu noticed that the blood around the crocodile's mouth was gone, no, it just changed color, turned black , Is it oxidized?

"You killed it?" Ouyang Chun asked.

"No, it's Shi Yan." Ruo Pu said, "How to deal with this thing? Do you want to take it back?"

Pei Yannian: "Yes, this is a very good experimental material."

Anyway, with Lin Zirui around, carrying a three-meter-long crocodile didn't take much effort.

Back in the hotel, after taking a shower, Ruo Pu and Shi Yan lay on the bed.

Ruopu looked at the bed next to him: "Are you tired?"

"Not tired, but still a little supportive." Shi Yan said, "I absorbed the energy of that crocodile."

Ruopu said softly: "Your ability is too powerful, fortunately it's on you."

He thought of the "self" in the nightmare. After "he" got out of control, he devoured many people. Shi Yan wouldn't be like that. Shi Yan didn't even want to eat crocodiles, but just killed the other party to the end—— When the opponent strikes first, Shi Yan is a legitimate defense!

The creature that made the eerie singing died, and everyone got a good night's sleep.

The next morning, everyone set off for the ghost forest, and the crocodile was brought back to Yucheng by the car that brought them over yesterday.

After entering the ghost forest, everyone found that the trees were very dense, and the phenomenon of strangulation was very serious—one tree wrapped around another, absorbing the nutrition of the other, occupying the living space of the other, until they killed each other.

With Ouyang Chun's plant ability, when their team passed by, the plants were quiet and peaceful. However, Ruopu could feel that the plants were slowly wriggling before they arrived and after they left, as if they were alive. thing.

The first two days went well, but on the second night, someone let down his vigilance and left the camp alone at night for convenience. It took only 10 minutes to go, so everyone hurried to find him.

He was hung upside down from a tree, already unconscious, his legs were so corroded that the bones could be seen.

Ouyang Chun tried to make the tree put down its food, but the tree in the feeding state refused to listen, so everyone cut the tree down.

Because of Pei Yannian's presence, the man's leg was saved.However, Pei Yannian can only heal his injuries. The muscles, blood and nutrients that were sucked away by the tree will not come back—this will make his physical condition much worse, and he will need a period of recuperation before he can recover. to the state before the injury.

Wan Cai: "What should we do now? Let him continue to follow the team, or send him back to Gwacheon Town?"

Let this person continue to follow the team, then everyone will spend a lot of time taking care of him, which will slow down the schedule.

Ouyang Chun asked: "Can you put him in Brother Xiaolin's space?"

When traveling during the day, most of their luggage was stored in Lin Zirui's space, and everyone only carried a carry-on bag containing frequently used items.

Lin Zirui shook his head: "Mutated mice will lose their activity if they stay in my space for a long time, and humans should also be harmful if they stay for a long time."

He once did an experiment with a chicken. After putting it in for a day, although the chicken didn't die, it was dumbfounded. I don't know if it was scared stupid by the dark space.

"Send it back to Gwacheon after dawn." Pei Yannian said.

There are two people with the ability to fly in their team, and one of them can send someone to Gwacheon. After returning, there is no need to come back again, and they can go back to Longgang first.

On the third day after entering the ghost forest, the road that Wan Cai was going to take them had a landslide, and they had to take a detour, which made them pass through a valley, where they saw black-eyed moths lying on the trees , on vines, on rocks, everywhere.

"Fuck, why are there so many black-eyed moths?" Li Xi couldn't help cursing.

Lin Zirui: "Why don't they go to other places, but all gather in this valley? Is it the breeding season?"

"There is a very special moth inside," Song Mingqing looked into the depths of the valley, "I sensed its spiritual power, and it can control other moths."

"Is this evolution? It seems dangerous, so you shouldn't keep it." Ruo Pu said, "I'll go into the valley to see that thing, you guys go first and wait for me in front."

"I'll stay," Li Xi said, "there are so many moths, it's hard to fly, I might create water vapor, wet their wings, so that they can't fly."

The rain and fog forest is very humid and has plenty of water, which is very beneficial for Li Xi to use his abilities.

Shi Yan: "I'll stay too, the protein content of moths is very high."

The implication is that it is necessary that he will devour these black-eyed moths, which is a great sacrifice.

Lin Zirui looked at them: "Should I stay too?"

Ruo Pu: "No, Shi Yan and Li Xi can just stay here. You can go with the big team. If you encounter danger, hide in the space first, and wait for us to find you."

Everyone looked at each other, Pei Yannian said: "Let's go."

Everyone kept their heads on the road, and half an hour later, the ground shook. Looking back, through the gaps between the branches and leaves of tall trees, you can see a large number of white clouds gathered above the valley of the black-eyed moth. Cloud lifts into the sky.

Pei Yannian said: "Everyone get closer and rest in place."

Being close is convenient for Lin Zirui to pull them into his space at any time, if everyone is too far apart, he can't take everyone away at once.

About 10 minutes later, Ruopu and the others appeared in everyone's sight. The three of them looked very embarrassed, as if they had been splashed with fine gray mud.

"It's the powder of those moths." Li Xi put the big moth in his hand on the ground, "This is the moth king."

The body of this moth was the size of an ordinary cat—it couldn't be compared with the size of a big cat like Shi Yan, but for a moth, growing to the size of an ordinary cat was also very scary.

Ruo Pu hurriedly said: "Zi Rui, find us some clothes, we need to take a bath."

"……okay."

Ruopu pushed Li Xi: "Let's go, we'll talk later, take a bath first."

The reason why Li Xi was brought in was because he needed to make bath water, and Ruo Pu heated it properly, turning the cold bath into a warm one.

Shi Yan turned into a jelly bear, rinsed twice in the bucket and it was finished; Ruo Pu used ultrasonic decontamination, and it was washed quickly; only Li Xi took a long time to wash his body and hair. After washing off the black-eyed moth scale powder, you will meet everyone's weird eyes: I didn't expect you to be so delicate, and it would take so long to take a bath!

Pei Yannian wrapped up the big moth, let Lin Zirui put it in the space, and then everyone continued on their way.

"How did that moth grow so big?" Lin Zirui asked.

"It's mutated." Ruo Pu said, "When it was killed, it still vomited blood."

But that blood, like the crocodile's blood, quickly "oxidized" and turned black.

"Moths have blood?"

"So it's changed."
