The branches and leaves in the dense forest are lush and lush.
Murong Hexuan walked at the front to clear the way.
Fatty Ming was walking in the middle. He knew that Zuo Zhan was in a bad mood, so he would turn around and chat with Zuo Zhan from time to time.
Zuo Zhan, who had been rescued, walked at the back, as wilted as an eggplant beaten by frost, unable to cheer up for anything.
When the three of them walked under a huge banyan tree, Fatty Ming suggested to rest where they were.
This big banyan tree is quite old, and its main trunk must be at least as thick as a dozen people hugging each other.
There are some horizontal banyan branches beside it. The roots and branches grow crosswise, and the original appearance cannot be seen.
The bark of the trees is pitted and weathered, and some of the thicker trunks still have several tree holes.
The phrase "a single tree makes a forest" is probably used to describe this big tree. It is obviously just a tree, but it can grow into a small forest.
Zuo Zhan said nothing and sat down with his back against one of the trunks of the big banyan tree, again looking like he couldn't survive.
Murong Hexuan was furious when he saw Zuo Zhan's appearance.
"Who are you showing your stinky face to?
How come you don’t want to live anymore after being cheated by a girl?”
"Young man in the world, who hasn't been blindly attracted to a dog for a moment?
What does this mean to you? I was much more unlucky than you at that time!"
This sentence was so social that Fatty Ming and Zuo Zhan both turned to look at Murong Hexuan, with expressions on their faces that said, "I want to eat melon."
Murong Hexuan felt that he had spilled the beans and coughed twice in embarrassment, "I meant a friend of mine!"
Zuo Zhan put on an expression of understanding.
Whenever I have a classmate, a friend or a cousin, there is a high probability that he is talking about himself.
But Fatty Ming asked in surprise, "Before you met us, did you have other friends?"
Murong Hexuan's face showed a look of recollection, "She is not my friend, she just wants to get my resources as the chief disciple."
Zuo Zhan was no longer depressed at this time. When he heard that someone was more unlucky than him, he suddenly felt like gossiping.
He asked with interest, "What happened next?"
Murong Hexuan smiled slightly, his eyes were deep and cold,
"I watched with my own eyes as she and her teammates were torn to pieces by ferocious beasts. In the end, she also fed them to the ferocious beasts."
Zuo Zhan was a little surprised, "No more?"
That's it?"
He felt that something was left unfinished. He originally thought it was a heart-stirring story, but it ended hastily.
Murong Hexuan raised his eyebrows, "What?
Do you want to hear the details?
Can I describe to you the tragic situation before she died?"
Fatty Ming and Zuo Zhan said in unison, "Don't say it, we don't want to hear it!"
Murong Hexuan smiled again, "Are you sure?"
Zuo Zhan hesitated and said, always feeling that there should be some story in it, "How about you stop clicking?"
Fatty Ming quickly interrupted and said,
"Don't let him talk. Last time he said that he had a friend who had no food when he was five or six years old. He was about to starve to death. He caught a mouse with the skin and flesh..."
Fatty Ming said, as if he thought of something nauseating, he waved his hands with an ugly expression,
"Hey, don't mention how disgusting it is. After what he said, I didn't eat well for three days!"
"If you ask him to talk again this time, he might tell some bloody story!"
Fatty Ming patted his treasure bag and said, "I have more than a dozen roast chickens in it, and I haven't had time to eat them yet!"
When it comes to food, Fatty Ming's mouth starts to water.
He touched his belly and felt unbearably hungry. He quickly took out a roast chicken from his treasure bag and opened his mouth to eat it.
Thinking that his two teammates were there, he hesitated for a moment and then said politely: "Zuo Zhan, Murong Hexuan, do you two want to eat roast chicken to calm down the shock?"
Zuo Zhan smiled and shook his head, "You can eat it, I don't have much appetite right now."
Murong Hexuan glanced at Fatty Ming and said with disgust, "Everyone has already abstained from eating grains. You are the only one who still eats three meals a day. I am ashamed of you."
"Look at how fat you are. Even if you don't eat for three years, let alone three days, you won't starve to death!"
Fatty Ming scratched his head in embarrassment, but Zuo Zhan looked at Murong Hexuan with a lot of sympathy in his eyes.
He thought to himself that Murong Hexuan must have suffered a lot when he was a child.
Fatty Ming tore off a piece of chicken thigh and chewed it. His mouth was filled with oil. After a few bites, he finished the whole chicken thigh.
He threw the leftover chicken bones into the hole of the big banyan tree next to him, and then tore off another chicken thigh.
There was a tree hole one foot square in the big tree trunk next to Fatty Ming.
Murong Hexuan was suddenly startled, stood up suddenly and held down Fatty Ming's hand.
Pulling Fatty Ming, he dragged Fatty Ming behind him and looked at the big tree behind Fatty Ming warily.
This move shocked Fatty Ming, "What are you doing?"
Murong Hexuan frowned and said: "Don't eat it yet, did you hear any sounds?
There’s something weird about this tree.”
Zuo Zhan also stood up slowly, staring at the tree hole behind Fatty Ming with a serious face.
"I heard it too, but it's not the tree's problem, there should be something else here."
Murong Hexuan said worriedly: "Let's retreat quickly. Isn't this a man-eating tree?"
Zuo Zhan shook his head and said, "I am from Wanmu Pavilion, and I am most sensitive to wood spiritual power."
"This is an ordinary big banyan tree. It has only lived for thousands of years, but it is not a spiritual plant. There may be something in the hole of the tree!"
Fatty Ming stammered and asked: "In a tree hole?
What can there be?
A vicious beast?"
He thought about how he was leaning against a big tree just now, with the tree hole next to him.
Does this mean that the ferocious beast was right next to him just now?
He also casually threw the chicken bones into the tree hole, and suddenly felt creepy.
It felt like I had walked through the door of hell.
He looked around and saw that there were many thick tree trunks that could be as thick as several people hugging each other.
And what's interesting is that almost all thicker tree trunks have tree holes.
Fatty Ming backed away and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Zuo Zhan drew out his long knife and said, "I don't know, but there are spiritual energy fluctuations in the tree hole. You guys should step back first, and I'll give it a try."
Murong Hexuan stepped forward to stop Zuo Zhan and said, "You were hit by Wuyou Powder just now. It's not appropriate to use your spiritual power rashly. Let me do it!"
Zuo Zhan shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Li Cheng taught me a few fire spells. I just want to test their power!"
Using fire spells to attack plants can be considered a direct match.
Murong Hexuan was originally a disciple of the Pure Land Sect, and mainly studied earth magic.
He was also very interested in fire spells. When Zuo Zhan said this, he wanted to see the power of Zuo Zhan's fire spells.
At that moment, he didn't stop him anymore and pulled Fatty Ming back together.
Fatty Ming was so nervous that he didn't even eat the chicken drumstick in his hand.
Zuo Zhan struck with a flaming sword, splitting most of the tree hole open, and then stepped back.
