This matter was not explained in detail in the intelligence." Lin Qiye thought about it for a moment and said slowly.
An Qingyu pondered for a moment, "I heard some rumors when I was purchasing equipment in Tianhe City."
"What rumor?"
"There are many treasure hunters near Xing'an Mountains."
"Treasure hunter? Is there a treasure nearby?" Baili's fat eyes suddenly lit up.
"Not really. The 'treasure' here mostly refers to old ginseng or other precious herbs that grow in the mountains. Although there are legends about treasures and ruins, there are not many.
And most of the things related to it are horror legends."
"It turns out to be herbal medicine." Baili Pangpang sighed with regret.
"A scary legend?" Cao Yuan became interested, "Tell me more about it."
Baili Pangpang was stunned for a moment, then turned to look around. In the dark and gloomy forest, the silence was so numb that his scalp was numb. He couldn't help but swallowed, "Listen to ghost stories here? Are you sure?"
"You can listen to it. Many of the 'mysteries' come from such rural rumors. You might encounter them in the future." Lin Qiye said.
Baili Pangpang grinned, "Why do you sound like you're looking forward to it?"
An Qingyu cleared his throat and spoke slowly: "There are many terrifying legends about Xing'an Mountains, such as the Great Fox Immortal, the Legend of Horse and Monkey, and Paper Man Carrying a Palanquin... But the one I heard seems to be even weirder.
According to legend, there is a forest farm deep in the primeval forest..."
"etc!"
Baili Pangpang interrupted An Qingyu and couldn't help but ask, "The forest farm? The forest farm we are going to now? Are you sure this is not a story you made up to heighten the scary atmosphere?"
"Of course not, the forest farm is not the key to this story." An Qingyu shook his head and continued, "Legend has it that there is a gloomy ghost forest next to this forest farm. One day, a lumberjack working there
I walked into the ghost forest and prepared to cut down wood. As soon as I cut down the first tree, I saw a shadow faintly appearing in the depths of the ghost forest...
At first, he thought it was just an ordinary forest beast, but when he walked closer, he realized that the shadow was human-shaped, short in stature, and wearing strange bright red clothes, which was very eye-catching. But the most important thing is that he saw the other person.
s face……
It was a pale face, with blurred features. It looked like a human...but more like a dead person."
Baili Pangpang shivered violently.
"Later, word spread about this incident, and a group of young people came to the ghost forest to explore the secrets, hoping to find traces of the mysterious figure. After entering the ghost forest, they did not feel anything was wrong, but they felt that the environment was a bit spooky. Later, they
I just walked around in the ghost forest and came out.
It wasn't until they came out that they discovered... there was one person missing from the team.
The missing person was a local guide they were looking for. They went back to the ghost forest and searched for a long time, but could not find him. Later, they met the lumberjack who met the figure and showed him the missing person's identity.
Photos, hoping he would mobilize the surrounding lumberjacks to look for them together.
But when the lumberjack saw the photo, his expression changed instantly.
The appearance of the missing man was exactly the same as the dead face he saw in the woods..."
After An Qingyu finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a dead silence.
Baili Fatty's face turned pale. He took out the beads from his pocket and murmured. He kept glancing at the darkness on both sides with the corner of his eyes. He almost retracted his entire face into his collar, for fear of something coming from the side.
jump out.
After listening to this story, Lin Qiye said thoughtfully: "So, what exactly is this story trying to say?"
"What this story actually tells is that in the no-man's land deep in the Xing'an Mountains, there is an eternal kingdom, where the dead can have a new life and exist eternally. And the missing young man is actually a misunderstood person in the kingdom of the dead.
The dead man who broke out, the reason why he wanted to explore the ghost forest with the team was actually to find a way home." An Qingyu explained.
"The kingdom of the dead in the primeval forest... is quite interesting." Cao Yuan nodded thoughtfully.
At this moment, Lin Qiye, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
The four of them have been moving in a long snake formation in the forest. Lin Qiye can sense the surrounding environment, so he walks at the front. Behind him are An Qingyu and Baili Pangpang, and Cao Yuan walks at the end.
Pressure the formation.
As soon as Lin Qiye stopped, the three people behind him also stopped at the same time.
"What's wrong? It should be at least two hours away from the abandoned forest farm..." Baili Pangpang asked in confusion.
Lin Qiye stood at the front, frowning slightly, the beam of the flashlight slowly moved in the dark forest, and his eyes scanned the surroundings.
He reached for the backpack behind him...
"There's...something around here."
The voice of this sentence was very low, but the three people behind him heard it clearly. Everyone became nervous and looked around cautiously.
In this dark forest, there was total silence, except for the sound of their breathing.
Every breath they took was condensed into a white mist under the dim light. As the white mist dissipated, everyone's hearts rose to their throats.
Suddenly, Lin Qiye's pupils suddenly shrank!
Ding--!!
A soft moan cut through the dead night. The straight knife in his hand was instantly unsheathed. The light blue blade cut through the branches in the darkness and flew straight towards the forest beside everyone!
Immediately afterwards, a harsh howl came from the forest!
The sound was very sharp, not like a sound that a human could make. The next moment, a black shadow like a wild bull jumped out of the darkness and crashed into the four people like lightning!
There was no time to make any unnecessary moves. The four of them were extremely fast and instantly retreated towards the surroundings. The black shadow passed behind Baili Chubby and hit a big tree directly!
Boom——!
A dull sound was heard, and the big tree was broken by the black shadow!
At the same time, four flashlight beams converged at the same time, and everyone finally saw the true appearance of the black figure.
That's a blood-red giant ant!
He was about 1.5 meters tall and at least two meters long. His ferocious mouthparts were like a pair of sharp scimitars. Six thick giant feet supported his huge body. He quickly turned around and faced Lin Qiye and the others.
A strange and harsh sound came from its mouthparts again, and it crawled quickly in the forest on its six legs, rushing straight towards the nearest Baili Fatty!
"Grandma, why are you coming at me?!" Baili Pangpang cursed angrily, and a golden light flashed between his neck!
