Above the gray fog

Feeling the fluctuation of space, the old grass spirit instantly opened its eyes. When it saw that it was Lin Shan, it closed its eyes and pretended not to see Lin Shan.

"Can you tell me about the forbidden area?" Lin Shan asked straight to the point.

"Did the people of the envoy enter the forbidden area?" The old grass spirit opened one eye and asked lazily, then immediately opened the other eye, looked stunned, and asked: "Did the envoy go to the front line?"

"Bumped." Lin Shan said seriously.

The old grass spirit didn't react for a while. What could hit Sequence 8 so hard that his head was broken and bleeding? Then he seemed to remember something and asked: "Forbidden area?"

"Well, the beacon I left is inside, and it is a bamboo forest." Lin Shan nodded.

"That's right, the forbidden area is indeed a bamboo forest." The old grass spirit affirmed, and then there was some helplessness, "They kept asking me about the situation of the forbidden area before, and I knew they must want to go in. I thought it was the envoy's idea, but I didn't expect it to be their own initiative."

"Tell me about the situation inside." Lin Shan said.

"I don't know." The old grass spirit shook his head and replied, "That bamboo forest suddenly appeared in our clan about 150 years ago. We also went in to explore it at first, but we never explored it again after losing two sequence 8s."

"Don't know anything about it?" Lin Shan asked.

"We only know that there is a building inside, and the whole bamboo forest is a strange place. We asked the great sage before, and the great sage said that this is a dangerous place and asked us not to enter it again. Then we listed this bamboo forest as a forbidden area." The old grass spirit said slowly, its eyelids drooping, as if it was about to fall asleep again.

"Did they all go in?"

"Well... we went together, and no one came back." The old grass spirit nodded.

Lin Shan sighed and then disappeared on the spot.

After Lin Shan left, the old grass spirit opened one eye and looked at the place where Lin Shan was originally. "It is indeed a greedy race. Is the choice of the great sage this time...really the right one..."

"Bang."

There was another light sound, and the wound that had been healed was torn again. Fortunately, he slowed down in advance this time.

Lin Shan walked out of the dark space expressionlessly.

This place is really hard to guard against. There is no sense of direction in the dark space. An invisible wall cannot be located at all, unless a spiritual mark is placed in front of the wall.

No longer thinking about the wall, Lin Shan moved his sight to the front, which was a bamboo forest shrouded in black fog.

Let's not talk about other people first. Captain Liu is the most talented person of this generation. If he has the opportunity to be promoted to Sequence 8 in the future, he will most likely be stronger than an ordinary Sequence 8. If he is defeated in it, it will be a loss for the human race.

He took out the parchment that had not been used for a long time and wrote slowly:

Lin Shan: [Can you save Liu Heng? ]

Parchment: [You need to pay one month of life. ]

Lin Shan: [Pay. ]

Parchment: [Yes.]

Lin Shan: [How to save?]

Parchment charges for each question. It is better to ask all the questions separately to avoid being cheated.

Parchment: [You need to pay three months of life.]

Lin Shan: [Pay.]

Parchment: [Find them, don't take the things inside, don't cause any damage, the great parchment will guide you to leave.]

Putting away the parchment, Lin Shan walked along the narrow path.

As soon as he entered the bamboo forest, raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the bamboo leaves, creating white mist, and also covering Lin Shan in the rain curtain.

A layer of white spiritual gauze covered Lin Shan, and the rain was evaporated into water vapor by the high temperature before it touched him.

This rain suddenly appeared, which was definitely abnormal. If he was caught in it, there might be some additional harm.

Lin Shan continued to move forward, and he could feel that the location where the beacon disappeared was just in front of him.

Suddenly

Lin Shan stopped and looked forward.

It was a person.

But it didn't look like a person.

The body was a human body, but the head was definitely not a human head. The slender human body was topped with a strange face as big as a water tank, and the face was covered with blood.

The monster with a strange face also saw Lin Shan. A look of struggle appeared in its eyes. It roared in extreme pain and rushed towards Lin Shan.

His steps were very staggering, but his speed was extremely fast. He covered a distance of dozens of meters in the blink of an eye.

In Lin Shan's sight.

I saw.

A big blood-red face rushed towards him.

A small dagger condensed in his hand, the temperature around him suddenly dropped, and the raindrops turned into broken ice, which kept falling down. The dagger turned into a white light and rushed towards the strange face, inserted into one of its eyes, making a sound of bursting.

Before the blood plasma flowed out, a "crackling" sound was heard, and the whole strange face was instantly frozen in ice.

Fire in this place can easily cause damage. If it destroys the surrounding bamboo and violates the rules here, he is afraid that it will be difficult to end it. It is most convenient to freeze the monster directly.

When he got close to the monster, Lin Shan could see clearly that under the strange face was a human body, and it was wearing the uniform of the human special forces.

Lin Shan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself: "Is it a mutation, infection, or other similar characteristics..."

With his understanding of this world, he naturally did not believe in the sayings of ghosts. Everything was just the power of extraordinary characteristics.

If he guessed correctly, the monster in front of him was the team that came in before. For some reason, it mutated into this state.

Lin Shan looked away and continued to walk inside.

Suddenly, he felt a little chilly, with a faint smell of decayed corpses, mixed with the smell of rotting wood.

Lin Shan tightened his mind and looked around quickly.

Nothing.

But the stench of decayed corpses kept surrounding him.

He subconsciously smelled his body.

No smell.

He took a breath and ignored the smell and continued along the path.

On both sides was an unchanging bamboo forest, with only a narrow path in the middle, which could only allow three people to walk side by side at most.

The bamboo leaves on both sides of the path slapped on his shoulders from time to time, but he ignored it. When he reached a certain place, he suddenly stopped.

The flame he gave to Liu Heng as a beacon was extinguished here. The faint feeling in his spirituality came to an abrupt end here.

But there is nothing here. The environment has not changed since entering the bamboo forest.

"Illusion? Ghost wall? Or senses being manipulated?"

Lin Shan stood there for a while, thinking carefully about all the possibilities.

"It should be none of them. I am getting closer and closer to my beacon. It is impossible that the magic mirror or senses are affected."

Suddenly, Lin Shan sniffed.

Then.

He suddenly raised his head and looked up into the sky. His heart trembled. The temperature around him suddenly dropped to the extreme, and even cracks appeared in the space.
