i am a tree

There is an endless stretch in front of you. Looking around, there are endless black swamps, giant trees and vines, and bottomless pits everywhere. Poisonous insects and beasts hide in it, waiting for opportunities to move, and there is even more poisonous miasma. It can be said that every step It's a trap, everywhere is a dangerous place.

Ghost Valley is such a creepy place.

Arriving at this place, Lin Sleep took the disciples of the Wanling Sect and flew away without looking back.

Although Wanlingzong wanted to use Mu Yi's power, they didn't want him to involve too much, and only wanted him to help at the most critical moment.

Large and small black swamp pits, thick mud covered with rotten branches and broken leaves, bubbling, Mu Yi took me to wander in this place.

The seemingly invisible white mist below entangles every withered plant.

Those plants do not have the beauty outside at all, but are full of lifelessness and ferocity.

The ground is covered with a kind of dark green plant crawling on the mud, and there is no place for people to stand.

The Evil Spirit Valley has been open for three full months. Mu Yi and I have no interest in scrambling for treasures, so the top priority is to find a safe and secluded place to hide, so as not to harm the fish in the pond. Is it just onlookers?

I don't know how far it flew.

Lying on Mu Yi's shoulder, occasionally looking at the swamp exuding the stench of corruption, from time to time, he could feel a fierce aura coming faintly.

Even Mu Yi would stop and take a detour.

The number of times is enough to make me secretly startled.

In the distance, I heard a few hoarse shouts, as if calling for help, I pulled Mu Yi's sleeve, he glanced at me, turned around, and flew towards the place where the sound came from.

The voice sounded like a child, or a teenager, and it was getting weaker and weaker, and it seemed that he was dying.

I saw a skinny boy with a cloth tied around his waist rolling on the ground with a monster like a crocodile.

The monster's whole body was covered with sharp scales, which scraped the boy's body bloody.

Seeing that the young man lost his strength and was about to be defeated and became the monster's feast, with a flick of my finger, a green light shot at the monster, causing the monster's whole body to burst and die.

He didn't care about the flesh and blood on the boy's face, he lay panting on the ground, and after a long time, he stumbled to his feet and let out a hoarse cry, which sounded quite excited.

He ran over and collected the minced meat and leather armor, tied them into a bundle, then dragged him to Mu Yi and me, and bowed.

He was babbling non-stop, Mu Yi and I looked at each other, we couldn't understand what language he was speaking.

I took a peek and saw that he didn't have the slightest aura on him, he should be an ordinary mortal.

Unexpectedly, in such a harsh and harsh environment, there are still ordinary human beings alive. I don't know whether to lament the strong ability of living things to adapt to survival, or feel that there is something else strange.

It is said that this place was opened up by a monk with great supernatural powers in ancient times, and it was probably regarded as his own backyard by this monk, so some mortals were also moved in?

Come to think of it, it's not impossible.

This young man was not tall, and he walked freely in the poisonous mist and miasma without being affected at all.

It is impossible for him to live in this place alone, there should be others.

Thinking of this made me very curious.

He pointed at himself, then at us, then shook his head, and I took it that he meant to take us somewhere.

Mu Yi and I were in the same mind, we looked at each other, and then slowly followed behind.

The boy walked through those large and small, obvious or hidden swamp pits with extremely dexterous movements, and the heavy load on his body didn't affect his movements at all.

Smiling, he took out a few herbs from an old bag hanging on his waist, chewed them up, spit them out, and rubbed them on the wounds on his body. The wounds stopped bleeding quickly and formed scabs.

He walked through the wilderness, and the dense forest, in those corrupt swamps with ease.

After three or four hours, generally speaking, such a long period of continuous intense exercise would have already exhausted the physical strength of a mortal, but this young man was not tired at all. He finally stopped and made a gesture.

Mu Yi and I followed him from a distance, watching him stoop into a dense forest not far away.

The woods were dark, and tall, silent trees stood there densely.

The trees here are very strange, bare, without a leaf, but the branches are so many that they are airtight.

Mu Yi and I stopped in mid-air, I looked at the gray sky in the distance, feeling a little melancholy, I finally got out of that space, and not long after, I came to such a strange place again, my luck was really bad.

Mu Yi told me about the origin of this place.

Those people knew that this place was full of dangers, but they rushed over one after another like moths to a flame, in order to get a book of exercises left by the monk with great supernatural powers.

As for those magic weapons and elixir, they are just the last prizes.

This monk with great supernatural powers was the last one to break through the void and fly away. Since him, no one has reached this level, and no one knows why.

According to gossip and rivers and lakes rumors, the set of exercises he left behind may be the last ray of hope.

Of course, when Mu Yi talked to me, he was naturally gentle and gentle, and the breeze blew by without making waves.

While we were whispering to each other, the boy jumped out from the woods, ran to us quickly, gestured to grab Mu Yi's clothes, and shrank back timidly halfway.

We followed him into the woods.

When we got inside, after a short walk, we saw a small village where people in twos and threes looked at us evasively.

The people here are very short, with an average height of [-] centimeters at most. The men just want a piece of cloth to cover their shame, while the women have the upper part. Their skin is dark. I don’t know if it is the original skin color or dirty. His eyes were a little dull.

The place to live is a shack made of branches and vines on the ground.

A few children were squatting dirty on the ground, drooling and looking at the meat brought back by the young man. When they saw us, they rushed away.

The boy looked at them with a smile, and patted their heads. Now it seems that this boy is at most thirteen or fourteen years old, but in such a harsh living environment, he took on the livelihood early, which is too precocious. .

At this time, an old man with a cane was supported by a young man and walked in front of us. I struggled to jump off Mu Yi, his hand brushed gently, and a short table appeared on the ground, and I stood on it .

These aborigines have probably forgotten the language they used to speak, and have developed their own means of communication over the endless years, babbling, babbling, various pronunciations of different lengths, and gesture The movement of feet.

I roughly understood that he wanted to thank me. Seeing him bow his waist at me, he quickly waved his hand to stop him. I couldn't bear the big gift of this old man. He pointed at us while pointing at a few people. The woman who was already cooking up those meats seemed to be inviting us to this dinner party.

I was a little embarrassed, I was really not interested in the flesh on that black monster, so I just shook my head.

They didn't force it. Seeing us shaking our heads, the old man nodded slightly, pushed the young man, and then bowed and left. Except for the young man who was still following us, everyone else went about their business.

The attention has been attracted by this group of aborigines, but they have forgotten that the place where they live is very different from the surrounding environment.

The ground was clean and firm, the plants crawling on the ground disappeared, and even the white mist that permeated the entire space dissipated a lot, as if this place was enclosed by something.

Maybe this piece of land is the only place suitable for living in this black swamp, and they did not know how they found it.

Mu Yi and I decided to stay here for the time being.

Since these ordinary people can also live here, it at least shows that this place is safe to some extent.
