I have a magical tree

Just when they were about to leave the Black Mountain, the three of them stopped almost at the same time and turned their heads to look back.

Chen Lifu's hand had already touched the hilt of the knife, and Sima Zongheng also had a solemn brow. Yan Zhen's face had changed drastically.

On a distant hilltop, a figure was vaguely standing there, quietly looking at the three of them. The reason why they just noticed the abnormality was the malice in this look, which was almost unconcealed.

As a master, he had amazing perception. As long as the distance was not too far, he could sense a little bit of malice, let alone this kind of look?

The three of them were facing a great enemy. Even Sima Zongheng, the strongest, stiffened when he saw the figure on the hilltop.

A quiet and weird confrontation, Sima Zongheng and the other two seemed to be still, and no one dared to make any move.

Chen Lifu's hand that drew the knife was stopped by him and froze in mid-air.

It seemed that he was afraid that if he continued to move, something bad would happen.

As the weakest among the three, Yan Zhen's only feeling at this time was fear. Even though they were far apart, he could see a lot of meaning in that look. It was like he was served on the table as a meal and was being examined by a gourmet.

The other party was not even thinking about whether to eat, but how to eat!

This kind of terror was the first time he had ever encountered it in his life. Even when he was weak, he had encountered countless dangers, but he had never felt so close to death.

Unlike Yan Zhen who was completely panicked, Chen Lifu and Sima Zongheng were communicating with each other through martial arts.

"What should we do? County Governor? Should we turn around and run away immediately? That thing may not catch up. We can rush through the outer area of ​​Black Mountain soon. There are void ships outside to pick us up..." Chen Lifu was like facing a great enemy.

"No, don't move!" Sima Zongheng immediately rejected it. "Wait quietly! Don't be anxious!"

They were obviously only one step away from the boundary, but this one step away became a gap that the three could not cross.

They had no choice but to wait, either to die or to wait for that existence to retreat. They were now throwing their lives and deaths into the hands of the other party.

Sima Zongheng made the same choice when he saw the blurry figure.

Because the distance was still far, they could not see clearly, but the aura could not be faked. If you move, you will die!

After nearly half an hour of stalemate, the blurry figure on the distant hilltop finally moved, like a lion king who was a little tired of patrolling the territory, and turned and left.

The relaxed and casual feeling made the three people feel more depressed. They thought they were confronting each other and were afraid of each other, but until now they realized that it was just their wishful thinking.

That existence has never regarded them as opponents!

Chen Lifu understood why Sima Zongheng stopped him just now and did not let him make any moves.

Because that existence was more terrifying than he imagined!

"Leave here!" Sima Zongheng's eyes stayed in the direction where the existence left, but his footsteps had begun to slowly retreat.

The other two followed suit and slowly retreated outside the Black Mountain. During the whole process, except for the words Sima Zongheng said at the beginning, there was no communication.

Even though they were now full of doubts and had all kinds of questions, they all knew that everything had to wait until they left here, otherwise it would be inappropriate.

Fortunately, the return journey was very smooth this time, and there were no emergencies. The disappeared existence did not reappear, and the unknown existence did leave and did not chase.

After leaving the boundary for several miles, the three of them had seen the Void Ship and the Piercing Cloud Boat, and they relaxed a little.

The three of them boarded the ship separately, and Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu did not leave Yan Zhen any chance to ask questions.

As for his son Yan Chengdao, he asked, that was a favor, but this matter was unusual, and Yan Zhen was not qualified to know more.

Because they didn't even give Yan Zhen a chance to speak!

"Leave here immediately!" After getting on the boat, Sima Zongheng looked at Old Yan.

Old Yan immediately heard something unusual in this sentence. Normally, it would be enough to say "leave here", but Sima Zongheng actually used "immediately".

This is not Sima Zongheng's usual habit of speaking!

But he did not ask, but immediately asked people to drive the void ship away from Black Mountain at the fastest speed.

It was not until the void ship left Black Mountain for hundreds of miles at a very fast speed that Old Yan returned to Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu.

"What's going on? What did you encounter in there?"

Old Yan was a little surprised for a moment, because when he came over, he saw the silent Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu. They seemed to be thinking deeply, confused, and had no answer.

The two raised their heads, and Chen Lifu's voice was trembling, "Do you know about forbidden creatures?"

Old Yan's eyes widened, "You...you met?"

Forbidden creatures are not monsters living in forbidden places. Forbidden places are full of monsters. What's so strange about encountering monsters?

Therefore, the forbidden creatures here are not just the living creatures in the forbidden land, but the humanoid intelligent creatures living in the forbidden land!

There have been rumors about this kind of existence, so it is not the first time Sima Zongheng and Chen Lifu know about the existence of such a thing. Of course, it is indeed the first time to see it.

"This kind of existence, according to rumors, will only appear in the deepest part of the forbidden land, and will never come to the outer edge of the forbidden land for no reason." Sima Zongheng spoke, but his eyes were always fixed on the direction of Black Mountain.

"You mean, there will be a big change in Black Mountain?"

"Who knows?" Sima Zongheng shook his head, "I need to think about this matter again, and I can't explain it clearly now!"

He and Chen Lifu can both guarantee that they are not wrong. That existence is indeed a humanoid creature. Judging from its performance, it does have wisdom. The probability of it being a forbidden creature has reached 80%.

Unless some kind of power directly affects the three of them, causing them to make wrong judgments at the same time, but this probability is actually very small.

"I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky!" Old Yan shook his head, "This kind of extremely low probability thing has made you encounter it, and you can still get away with it!"

"Maybe this is not accidental. Why didn't the forbidden creature appear there because of the riot in Black Mountain? We are investigating, and they are also investigating?" Chen Lifu has regained his calm at this time, and his thinking has gradually become clearer.

Rather than saying that they were lucky or unlucky, he believed that there was an inevitable connection between these coincidences.
