The weak moonlight above them was blocked by the crowns of these towering trees, barely letting in any light, and the woods were dark.
The forest was so quiet at night that even the original sounds of wind and crickets seemed to have disappeared.
A large dark cloud passed by, and the weak moonlight disappeared completely. The entire land was shrouded in darkness, and the big trees that were still standing peacefully seemed to suddenly become arrogant.
An inexplicable flash of panic flashed through Hua Weiluo's heart. Even without the moonlight, with her inner strength, she could still clearly see the movement in the woods. There was no wind, but the crowns of the towering trees kept moving.
They danced wildly, and each tree looked like it was about to rush towards them.
"Jingxin Jue." The big hand on her shoulder suddenly used a little force to hug her into his arms, and then a blue light floated in Zhishan's other hand, and in that dazzling,
Under the bright blue light, the swaying tree crowns seemed to have stopped for an instant.
"What was that just now??" The trace of panic in Hua Weiluo's heart finally disappeared. Seeing that the surroundings were quiet again, she couldn't help but tighten the skirt of Zhishan's clothes and asked in a low voice.
"It's the miasma in this forest." Zhishan held the Taoist talisman emitting blue light with one hand and protected the flowers before they fell with the other. He said in a cold voice: "Without the sunlight during the day, the forest at night will produce miasma.
These miasmas can cause people to hallucinate. Although you have the internal strength to protect yourself and your concentration is acceptable, when the dark clouds covered the moonlight just now, you will inevitably feel panic in your heart."
"Oh... no wonder, when I look at these trees, they all seem to be trying to pounce towards me..." Hua Weiluo nodded calmly.
"It's just an illusion." Zhishan lowered his head slightly, looking at the pale face that had just turned pale before the flowers fell, and then continued: "The tree demons don't like to move, and they don't like to meddle in other people's business.
I guess I won't attack anyone unless they attack me, so we can just follow the trail and find the tree demon that just attacked us."
"Yeah." Hua Weiluo nodded.
Zhishan's voice paused for a moment, then opened his thin lips and said in a calm voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Just a few simple words, but Hua Weiluo's heart suddenly surged with emotion. Recalling those modern days, she had always worked alone in the city. All the grievances and pains were her own.
People bear it, how many times in the dark night, a person buried her head in her knees, letting tears slide down her cheeks, and then gritted her teeth, constantly telling herself to be strong and hold on, but there was never anyone by her side.
Tell her softly, don't be afraid, I'm here.
Hua Weiluo raised her head slightly and looked at Zhishan's perfectly contoured profile and his long, slightly drooping eyelashes. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: Could it be that... she really likes her junior brother...
"Let's go, follow the scattered traces." Zhishan's hand that was originally on Hua Weiluo's shoulder turned to hold her white jade little hand. With a little force on his hand, he pulled her in the dark forest.
In, move forward slowly.
Hua Weiluo lowered his eyes slightly, and his gaze fell on the intertwined palms of the two people. The warmth in his palms seemed to be transmitted to the bottom of his heart along his fingertips.
