At the beginning, I traveled through the wilderness, and I controlled the beasts to survive.

Everyone held the rifles in their hands tightly, stepped onto the relatively dry ground, and gradually walked into the forest path that was not a road.

"Yinyi, you must be careful." Han Ning reminded him with some worry.

"Boobo~"

Yin Yi responded and pierced her thick roots into the ground, walking about two meters in front of Han Ning like a flexible fish.

The other anemone trees used rattan whips to help the advancing humans clear the thorns and weeds blocking the road, and forcibly opened up a trail.

Nothing happened in the first 20 meters after entering the woods.

At first there were some roars of spirit beasts, but as they gradually went deeper into the woods, the surrounding white mist seemed to become thicker and quieter.

"It's so quiet. Can you hear any other noise?" Someone in the team suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

"I can't hear you anymore. These trees look different from the trees in our Xia Kingdom. They seem to be able to absorb sound waves." As soon as Han Ning said this, he felt that the sound he made quickly decreased, and the leaves next to him absorbed the sound waves. It was absorbed into it.

He shifted the flashlight and shined it on the leaves, and found that the leaves of this strange tree were wide and thick, and the whole color was black and purple, like coagulated blood.

"Hey, hey, hey." Han Ning tried to shout twice in the direction of the leaves.

The sound was significantly reduced after passing through the black and purple leaves.

Apart from absorbing sound, leaves are not dangerous. Everyone studied it for a while and didn't pay too much attention.

"Keep going forward. The area where the backpack is located should be not far ahead." Lu Xiuning looked around, confirmed the location of the wall, and said.

They continued walking through the forest for about 30 meters, when they suddenly saw a round thing hanging on a branch not far ahead. When they walked in, they saw that it was a shriveled human head hanging from the branch by thin vines.

After walking a few steps further, I saw scattered human heads hanging in the woods ahead, including men and women, old and young.

The further you go in, the more shocking it becomes.

The black and purple branches in front were covered with densely packed corpses of humans and some spirit beasts, just like the dried bacon that rural people hang in the kang room during festivals.

"Damn, there are so many people. I wonder why there are fewer corpses here at the east gate than in other places. It turns out they came here." Lu Xiuning looked at the corpses under the treetops and couldn't help but curse. road.

Looking at the clothes of the corpses under the treetops, they are the students and teachers who were killed at the beginning of the time travel.

With a shrunken body and distorted facial features, it was obvious that he had been dead for some time.

"Shh... keep your voice down, there is a noise ahead." Han Ning tilted his ears and looked solemn.

Everyone's expressions condensed, and they all walked lightly, slowed down their breathing rate, and quietly walked towards the sound of the sound.

After passing through the sparse trees and avoiding the corpses, the vision suddenly opened up.

A piece of flat, yellow grass appeared in front of everyone.

Han Ning made a stop gesture and motioned for everyone to squat down.

Everyone lay down in the bushes and looked forward through the gaps between the grass blades.

With the faint light in the forest, they could vaguely see what seemed to be a dozen weird "tree men" standing under the woods in front of them, ranging from tens of centimeters to 2 meters in height.

The surface of the bodies of these "tree men" is brown and black, with interlaced wrinkles that outline the appearance of human facial features, and their eyes are flashing with two faint green lights.

The light among the trees is exactly the light emanating from the pupils of the tree people.

An oversized iron-toothed snake with a length of more than 5 meters and black scales was curled up not far from the tree man.

Surrounding the iron-toothed snake, there are a large number of small iron-toothed snakes.

Above their heads, there are still corpses of other creatures.

At this moment, the tree people stood quietly on the ground, motionless, as if they were sleeping.

Criss-crossing black vines extend from both sides of their bodies, like thick needles, piercing into the bodies of humans and spirit beasts under the treetops.

As if it could breathe, the vines expanded and contracted in small increments. Every time it contracted, Han Ning saw a relatively plump gray snake quickly shriveling up.

As the gray snake's body shriveled up, it fell to the ground with a thud, and was quickly devoured by the snakes swimming on the surface, leaving only a forest-white skeleton.

At this time, Han Ning felt a heavy tap on his shoulder. Lu Xiuning had a sullen face and pointed to the area on the right side of the woods.

Under the treetops on the other side, three people were hanging from thin vines. One of them had his right thigh completely missing.

Their belongings were scattered on the ground.

"It's Zhao Wei, Zheng Zhibin, Chen Ningchuan and the others..."

Seeing the miserable condition of his companions, Han Ning couldn't help but feel angry.

This group of beasts...are storing them as spare food.

Lu Xiuning gestured for everyone to retreat first.

But at this moment, two entangled iron-toothed snakes suddenly fell from the treetops not far away and hit a classmate more than ten centimeters away.

For a moment, their eyes met.

"Grass!"

The classmate cursed secretly, picked up the rifle, and was about to shoot.

At the same time, two iron-toothed snakes also discovered the humans crawling in front of them.

"Hiss!"

A low neighing sound sounded.

The tree man and the giant iron-toothed snake standing quietly in front, their eyes closed and curled up, all opened their eyes and looked in the direction of Han Ning and the others.

Among the tree spirits, the 2-meter-tall tree spirit stood motionless. The green light in its eye sockets jumped slightly, and he could see the people hiding in the grass at a glance.

Susu~

The tree spirit made a sound similar to the rubbing of leaves, and suddenly shot out two black vine whips from its body, shooting towards Han Ning and others.

"Can't hide it anymore."

When Han Ning saw this, he said urgently, "Teacher Xiuning, leave those ugly tree people to Yinyi. Send a few people over to help us, while the others go to stop the giant snake."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Yi jumped out, his body flashing with light, and shot out a silver thorn as long as an arm, blasting the oncoming vine whip into the air.

"Zhiran, Yang Xing... nine of you go over and help Han Ning. The rest of you will work with me to block the huge iron-toothed snake."

sieve! !

The vine whip was blown to pieces, and the tree spirit boss was instantly furious. He stood up tremblingly, the green leaves falling rustlingly above his head, and rushed towards the direction of Silver Ripple with heavy steps.

What it calls legs are actually two thick, forked branches.

This tree spirit is probably not much weaker than Yin Yi...

Han Ning's heart sank for no reason as he looked at the vine whip that was broken by the silver ripples and quickly grew back, as well as the tree spirit boss who looked like a harmless tree, and the dozen or so smaller tree spirits staring at him eagerly.

He quickly looked around. Teacher Lu Xiuning and the others next to him were already firing at the group of snakes.
