I have a city in another world

Chapter 2354 Dangerous and Mysterious Forest

At the edge of the forest, the middle-aged monk kept looking around with vigilance.

It's quiet here, but it's not safe.

He had a feeling that there seemed to be a pair of eyes peeping in the dark, like a poisonous snake that might launch a sneak attack at any time.

Just like the fleshy vine, the middle-aged monk was caught off guard and didn't dare to confront it head-on.

The wound on his back had already festered and was pitch black in color.

Obviously, the fleshy vines are highly poisonous. If ordinary people were injured, they might have already lost their lives.

After the middle-aged monk realized that something was wrong, he immediately sealed the flesh and blood near the wound to prevent the toxin from flowing through the blood.

Although the deterioration of the injury was temporarily curbed, it was only a temporary solution, not the root cause. Someone had to help treat the wound and clean up the poisoned flesh.

Otherwise, it won't take long for the flesh and blood on his back to be completely necrotic. Such a serious injury, even a middle-aged monk can't bear it.

After all, he is not a god, he has the ability to live to the death of human flesh and bones, or an energy body, and he doesn't care about ordinary physical damage at all.

This is also one of the reasons why the middle-aged monk let his fellow disciples into the forest. You must know that in this case, only his senior brother can help treat the wound.

In addition, the weird flesh and blood vine and the ubiquitous sense of prying eyes made the middle-aged monk feel uneasy and dare not continue to take risks.

No matter how good something is, you have to live to enjoy it, otherwise it will be nothing in the end.

His current location was originally the passage into the primeval forest, but with the sudden explosion of energy from the heavens and the earth, the road has been completely blocked by plants.

The growth of those weeds is too crazy, the height is comparable to a small tree, and it is impossible to walk normally in the forest.

The middle-aged monk had no choice but to climb up a big tree again, trying to broaden his vision so that he could guide his fellow disciples.

Fortunately, the wild weeds were limited to a fixed area, and everything else was normal, which made the middle-aged monk heave a sigh of relief.

Manipulating the communication compass in his hand, the middle-aged monk sent a set of messages to the short-coated monk, marking his location.

With accurate coordinates, the middle-aged monks can guide and command in time to help outsiders enter the forest.

Being inside the forest, the middle-aged monk didn't know how powerful the phantom array was, but he knew the strength of the short-coated monk very well.

Even they are helpless, obviously this weird primeval forest is definitely not as simple as imagined.

Tang Zhen's appearance flashed in his mind, and the middle-aged monk even wondered whether all this had something to do with Tang Zhen?

Otherwise, in an ordinary forest, how could there be gem ore containing the energy of heaven and earth suddenly appearing, and there are so many terrifying monsters?

Thinking of the scene where Tang Zhen attacked him secretly and then destroyed his magic weapon with a dagger, the middle-aged monk confirmed this even more.

How can an ordinary person have such means, and possess such terrifying power, that they can shoot through human bodies and tree trunks with a bamboo spear?
Fortunately, the middle-aged monk can be sure that Tang Zhen probably doesn't know how to use spells, otherwise, when the two fight, he will definitely use monk methods to attack.

As long as you don't know the methods of the monks, then there is nothing to worry about. The middle-aged monks think that with their own strength, Tang Zhen is no match at all.

For monks, mortals are just ants, and Tang Zhen is just one of the stronger ones.

While pondering in his mind, he saw a large group of people appearing at the edge of the forest, they were all fellow disciples of the middle-aged monk.

As they marched, their faces were full of vigilant expressions, as if they were walking in a minefield.

From the perspective of the middle-aged monk, this kind of appearance seems very ridiculous, but only the person involved knows how dangerous his situation is.

The scene they saw was completely different from what the middle-aged monk saw. The place that was originally empty was densely forested in their eyes.

Although it's just an illusion, it can't be rampant, otherwise the turbulent flow of invisible energy can easily kill people.

In addition, when you are running around, you will be involuntarily guided by the energy of the heaven and the earth, and you will think that you have walked a long way in one direction, but in fact, you are turning in circles like a grinder.

At the same time, in the process of marching, they are extremely vulnerable to various injuries, even if it is too late for their companions to save them.

From the perspective of a middle-aged monk, he could see some hidden dangers. For example, there were poisonous snakes lurking in the grass next to the team.

With the explosion of heaven and earth energy, the animals in the forest also benefited and became stronger and smarter.

Just as they were groping forward, a poisonous snake hidden in the grass suddenly bit a mercenary's calf.

After biting the target, the poisonous snake quickly retracted. The whole process was as fast as lightning, and no one reacted at all.

The bitten mercenary screamed and lowered his head to check where he was injured, and the whole team stopped accordingly.

"What's going on, what are you screaming for?"

When the old woman noticed that the team had stopped, she immediately turned her head and glared, asking in a cold voice.

"I was bitten. Judging by the appearance of the wound, it should be a poisonous snake!"

While the mercenary was speaking, he quickly strangled his leg with a rope, and then directly cut open the bitten place.

It was only at this time that everyone realized that in just a short period of time, the area around his bitten wound had turned black.

After the dagger cut open the wound, foul-smelling and viscous blood slowly seeped out, as if it was about to solidify.

During the process of treating the wound, the mercenary didn't feel any pain, because the wound was completely numb.

After being bitten by a snake, he was afraid of numbness instead of pain, and the mercenary knew this, so his face became very ugly.

The military doctor in the team looked serious, quickly took out the antivenom, and injected it into the injured mercenary.

"Am I okay?"

The injured mercenary asked, but didn't notice that his companion looked at him more and more seriously.

But in a short period of time, his face turned black and blue, and his eyes became dull and lifeless.

"It can't be saved..."

The military doctor shook his head and stood up from the ground. This kind of snake venom is too powerful, and there is no possibility of treatment.

Sure enough, right after he got up, the mercenary twitched a few times, and then completely lost his breath.

"Always be vigilant to me. If you are bitten by a poisonous snake again, even the gods will not be able to save you."

The old woman continued to speak in a cold voice, without even looking at the dead mercenary, she turned around and continued to move forward.

Seeing this, the rest of the monks were also full of indifference, and didn't take this matter to heart at all.

"Leave the body here, let's move on, remember to be careful where you step, don't be bitten by a poisonous snake again!"

The mercenary captain said, and then told everyone to follow the team closely, and continued to walk forward.

What they didn't realize was that the middle-aged monk who had been watching from a distance had his eyes widened at this moment, with a look of horror on his face.

It turned out that after everyone left, the dead mercenary suddenly stood up straight from the ground.

His eyes were dark, and he was lifeless. After getting up without any hesitation, he stepped forward to chase the team in front.

As if sensing the gaze of the middle-aged monk, the walking corpse turned its head to look at him, with an extremely weird smile on its lips.
