Ant Forest

"Why are you here now?" Fan kept throwing one green fruit after another into his mouth, eating one bite after another, and seeing Sheng and Lin Yi coming, he wiped his mouth in dissatisfaction, "It's too slow gone."

Sheng didn't even bother to look at Fan's mouthful of green juice, so he turned to Lin Yi and said, "Follow me closely."

"Okay." Lin Yi nodded, looking at the group of handsome ant men with different styles in front of him, his scalp was a little numb.The rainy season is over, is everyone popular with dolls?

It was only then that Fan noticed Lin Yi's change, "Oh, this, this is Yi kid?" He admired Lin Yi's adult figure with interest for a while, then supported his chin with the tentacles, clicked his tongue, and looked at Lin Yi. Deeply, "This kid grows really fast."

Lin Yi silently hid herself in Sheng's shadow, Sheng cast a glance at Fan, Fan looked away embarrassingly, and muttered, "It's still cuter when you're small."

Sheng snorted again.

With a flash of white light, Sheng changed back into an ant shape, and Lin Yi could no longer support the human shape, so he quickly changed back.

Fan cut it out. Although he disliked the waste of energy in human form, he had to say that it was really convenient to do things in human form.

Fan snapped his fingers, and this group of wild bodybuilders with tentacles immediately turned into majestic giant ants.

Throwing away the leaf skirt that was still wrapped around his body, Fan moved his limbs, "Little ones, follow the boss!" Fan's extremely embarrassing appearance received big eyes and boos from a group of ants.

But everyone just likes to fight against Fan's arrogance, and the orders are still obeyed. All ants are ready to go.

Lin Yi felt a little guilty. This was obviously a very serious action by the soldier ant team. Is it really okay for him to follow like this?

Sheng saw Lin Yi's entanglement, and whispered in Lin Yi's ear, "Xiao Yi, don't you understand? You are already an alternate member of our team."

Lin Yi was frightened, he was already an alternate member, why didn't he know it?

"I applied for you." Sheng immediately explained Lin Yi's confusion.

Lin Yi: "..." It's too obvious to pretend to be a public servant for personal gain!

Lin Yi's heart shuddered, he couldn't let Sheng's behavior become a joke, he had to work hard to turn positive!

The players quickly drew up a formation and began to weave through the jungle of roots.

At this time, the sun had already set, and there were only a few scattered stars in the sky.However, the dark night will not hinder the progress of the ants. Their walking is not only based on vision, but also a large part of their sense of touch and hearing.

The jungle at night is dangerous.

Lin Yi has never left the lair at night. Once it is night, it is very dangerous to stay outside.

Lin Yi heard many insects chirping, and many other strange sounds that he couldn't figure out what they were.Night is both a time of rest for some creatures and a wonderful time for many to start moving.They take advantage of the cover of the night to do what they like to their heart's content.

The team continued to move forward, avoiding danger several times rather thrillingly, and even a few small-scale battles occurred.Lin Yi moved his mouth, wanting to remind them, but he knew that his position was too low and his experience was too little. Originally, the team had already complained about his joining, so he was just waiting to see the jokes between him and Sheng, he said It will definitely cause conflict.As the saying goes, ants are soft-spoken.

Just when Lin Yi was struggling, Fan suddenly left the position of team leader and wandered to Lin Yi's side.

Lin Yi felt that Fan had good intentions, so he looked at him warily.

Fan leaned closer to Lin Yi and said in a low voice, "Little ghost, if you have anything to say, tell your brother Fan, brother Fan, listen."

Lin Yi rolled his eyes because of Fan's thick skin, and even Sheng, who had been in the back of the hall, looked at him suspiciously.

"Uncle Fan, I want to say that it is better for us to detour at the fork in front of us. After all, any battle before reaching the destination is a waste of energy."

Fan was also choked by Lin Yi, but he kept Lin Yi's words in his heart.He has some understanding of this little devil's ability, and Fan has seen all kinds of trials during the trial.

Lin Yi did "see" a lot of things that Fan and the others couldn't see. He concentrated his energy in his eyes, and was almost blinded by the energy bodies shining with various lights around him.

It's been a long time since I used this ability, and it made Lin Yi dizzy at first, which made the whole team slow down because of him, so the soldier ants didn't want to see him.

But after Lin Yi got used to it, he found that his ability seemed to have evolved again.In the past, he could only see lumps of light, and those that were too faint could not be seen.Similarly, if it is too strong, Lin Yi will instinctively feel very uncomfortable.If it was the energy emanating from those strong men unconsciously, Lin Yi would only feel uncomfortable, but once the strong men restrained, he wouldn't be able to feel it anymore.Similarly, Lin Yi couldn't even imagine what would happen to him if he had malicious intentions towards him.

But now it seems that Lin Yi has been able to flexibly control his ability. He can selectively watch what he wants to see, and filter out what he doesn't want to see, so he doesn't have to be stuffed with a lot at once.

This is a good thing, at least Lin Yi no longer has a headache.

Sure enough, Fan made everyone choose to take a detour, which puzzled the soldiers and ants.Fan didn't explain anything, just pretended to be inscrutable, and Sheng was even more direct, simply going the other way, not caring that he was in the back of the palace, and took the lead.

The soldier ants had to follow the detour.It's just that, more time is wasted.

Lin Yi glanced back, there was a hunter with a lot of energy quietly dormant on their previous route, once they passed there, it would be another hard fight.

Then, the soldier ants discovered something that baffled them all.

Their captain always approached the new candidate with a shy face, and then they had to make detours and detours from time to time.This made the soldier ants frown, and at the same time, some careful soldier ants found that they hadn't experienced a battle since then.

This kind of suspicion gradually spread among the soldier ants, and everyone looked at Lin Yi with complicated eyes.

Lin Yi remained calm enough under the searching gaze of the ants, and the soldier ants couldn't see anything from Lin Yi's face, and quickly looked away.This kind of distraction can't be done all the time, otherwise Fan will beat him up.

Soon, everyone arrived at the destination in an extremely weird atmosphere, before a huge rotten tree!

Seeing that everyone had stopped, Lin Yi sat down on the ground and gasped for breath.He was covered in sweat, and he was almost exhausted. They walked all night!In order not to hold back, he also worked hard.

It is not an easy task to advance on a route full of roots and branches.They kept jumping and climbing on the tree roots, and they were all very tired.

But obviously this time the action was strangely successful, they all arrived in one piece, saving an unknown amount of energy.

Although a lot of detours have been taken, many battles have been avoided, and it takes less time than going directly to the shortcut.

For a moment, Lin Yi, who was limp on the ground, became the focus of all the ants.

Sheng touched Lin Yi's head, "Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Yi panted and shook her head, showing a smirk, and suddenly looked silly.

"It seems that we came very early." Fan looked at the huge tree in front of him excitedly, full of eagerness to try.

Lin Yi followed suit.

That tree was really big, and as far as Lin Yi could see, it was almost all its branches.

It's just that it is very abrupt without dense leaves, without vitality, and without vitality.It died, and presumably had been dead for many years.

The nests in its branches were decayed, and could barely be seen in outline, protected by the same decayed trunk.The birds left it, but it still guarded their home.

Its once-mighty trunk was mottled and covered with moss, parasitic plants, dead and continuing to provide shelter to other life.

Lin Yi can feel that there are still many lives living in the trunk of the big tree that has been hollowed out long ago, and they regard this place as a free home.

Why do you have to come here in the middle of the night?Lin Yi looked at the big tree with a pilgrimage, and asked Sheng with his eyes.

Sheng shook his head, looking at the tree with the same complex and shocking expression.Before the tree was alive, it must have stood here for hundreds of thousands of years, and it has gone through wind, frost, rain and snow.

Fan ordered the soldier ants to rest on the spot for a while, and then began to climb the tree.

All the ants were in a reverent mood, and even Fan, who had always been very unprincipled, had a serious face.

They climbed halfway, Fan signaled all the ants to stop, and began to take something out of the leaf backpack.

Lin Yi only saw that Fan opened something, and some powdery things fluttered and fell on the weathered and rotten wooden layer under their feet.

After another rainy season, the tree looked very decayed.

Lin Yi picked up the moss under his feet and stepped on a lot of water to get it out.

"Don't move around." An ant beside him said seriously.

Lin Yi didn't dare to move.

All the ants stared seriously at the place where Fan sprinkled the powder, the atmosphere was extremely serious.

Lin Yi didn't dare to move any more, he also looked at that area eagerly like the other soldier ants.

The ants watched eagerly for a long time, but there was nothing wrong with the place where Fan dusted it...

"No rush." ​​Fan didn't feel disappointed either, his eyes wandered, and he continued to search for something.

In this way, Fan walked all the way and sprinkled powder all the way, and then he acted with big eyes and small eyes. Except for fuming some bugs hidden in the crevices of tree trunks, nothing happened.

Just when Lin Yi felt disappointed and was about to rest his eyes, a soldier ant suddenly shouted excitedly, "Yes, yes! Finally!"

The soldier ants were all excited, and Lin Yi hurriedly followed to see something, stimulated by the white powder, gradually showing a transparent figure...
