If you can't eat grass, you will be eaten

It was said to be a cliff, but it was more like a wide crack, a crack that tore the earth deeply.

The group of people looked at the bottomless ravine, then at the fiery red hair that was flying forward vigorously, feeling speechless for a while.

"What should we do now?" The corner of Jue's mouth twitched into a sneer, "Do you want to jump down? Maybe Jiu Tun is right below."

"Oh, how is this possible!" Yingcao's face was very pale, and she tried her best to move away from the cliff, without even looking at the cliff.

"Jumping off a cliff is really impractical. Let's go around it. But should we go left or right?" Han Xiu asked everyone for their opinions.

"Let's see which direction the hair is leaning more." The little deer man replied softly.

Han Xiu looked at the road on both sides of the cliff, and then at the hair in his hand. It was still pointing straight ahead persistently, without deviation at all.

"Forget it, let's go to the right." Han Xiu curled up his hair helplessly and designated a direction.

Everyone walked along the crack for a long time, but there was no sign of the crack shrinking at all, as if the entire earth was divided into two here.

Feeling impatient to leave, Mace flicked his buttocks and sat on the ground: "I'm not leaving! If you look so far, you will find the Year of the Monkey!"

Seeing this, Han Xiu, the leader, could only say, "Sit down and rest for a while."

The people walked for a long time, and they still couldn't see the slightest sign of their destination. They were already exhausted physically and mentally. After Han Xiu's order, they all sat down on the ground without any image.

Han Xiu stared blankly at the front and wondered how long he would have to walk to find Jiu Tun, thinking about the scenery in front of him gradually becoming hazy, his thoughts also wandered somewhere.

Suddenly a gust of cold air hit, Han Xiu shivered suddenly, and instantly woke up.But when he woke up, he found that the scene around him had changed!

The original Great Rift Valley disappeared, and I somehow found myself in a forest.But looking around, all the trees in this forest are withered.Thick fog filled the withered woods, and even a ray of sunlight could not be seen.How did I get here?What about the rest?

Han Xiu panicked for a moment, but then saw a few figures in the thick fog.The little deer man's voice also came faintly: "Where is this? Where is everyone?"

"I, I don't know, I just fell asleep for a while, and I came here as soon as I opened my eyes." Yingcao's voice was a little trembling, as if she was very frightened, "The fog here is so thick, I can't see anything clearly. Could there be something hidden in this thick fog? I feel so uncomfortable."

"Don't scare yourself." Jue comforted Yingcao quite carelessly.

Thanks to them talking all the time, Han Xiu, who was a little far away from them, managed to find them: "Have you all arrived at this place? Did we move together, or did the surrounding scene suddenly change?"

"I remember that I didn't move." The little deer man's voice was muffled, a little hard to hear.

"I didn't move too much." Yingcao quickly expressed her opinion.

"Since we didn't move, then the forest came here by itself." Juetan said, holding his hands.

Han Xiu pondered for a moment, then said, "Maybe this forest really came here by itself."

Jue let out a sarcastic sneer: "Are you crazy, can the woods still grow legs?"

Han Xiu's voice was very calm, he ignored Jue's sarcasm, and explained seriously: "I don't know if you have heard of mirages."

"A mirage?" The little deer man seemed to remember something, "Do you mean the city that appeared on the sea?"

"Yes." Han Xiu nodded, "But that city is just an illusion, and it won't be long before it disappears. I think the situation we are in now is similar to it. It is very likely that we are now inside this 'city' .Wait patiently for a while and maybe this illusion will disappear."

"You mean it's an illusion?" Little Deer Man's voice was full of doubts, "But I didn't see that I hit a tree just now, so is this also fake?"

"Although what we saw was an illusion, we should still be in the original place. Maybe there happened to be something behind the illusion of the tree you hit." Han Xiu's tone was not very firm, "But let's not mess around. Move well, after all, there was a cliff next to us before. If the facts are as I expected, then we should be more careful."

"Okay! Okay, I won't move." Yingcao shook in fright, stiff as a stone, and dared not move.Jue, who was right next to Yingcao, snorted disdainfully, sat on the ground directly, did not comfort him, but let him stand nervously.

As time passed by, the fog in the woods gradually thinned, and finally all dispersed.But after the thick fog cleared, the surroundings were still the same scene - withered trees, rotting weeds... Without the cover of the thick fog, all these were presented naked in front of them.There was also a lingering sense of rancidity in the air.

"I, can I move now?" Yingcao's trembling voice turned into tears. What happened was so weird that he didn't even know if the land under his feet was solid. He was afraid that he would fall The foot will step on the ground and fall into the abyss.

"It's okay, you idiot!" Jue who was very close to Yingcao stretched out his hand maliciously, and Yingcao suddenly lost her balance and fell into Jue's arms.

Yingcao raised her head from Jue's arms, covered her forehead with her hands, tears welled up in her eyes, "Xiao Jue, your chest is so hard, it hit my head."

Jue pushed Yingcao away, picked up the mace and threw it at Yingcao, saying angrily as he hit it, "Are you an idiot? Your head is so hard, what's the matter if you hit it once?"

Yingcao was startled by the menacing Jue, and immediately forgot everything, running around to avoid Jue's mace.It happened that the little deer man was standing near the firefly grass, and the firefly grass jumped up behind the little deer man, showing his head timidly: "Xiaojue, don't be angry, okay?"

The pink mace pointed directly at the firefly grass behind the little deer man, and he felt a little panting: "Come out!"

"Forget it! Don't quarrel, okay?" The little deer man was caught between them in a dilemma, so he had to try his best to persuade them to make up.

Han Xiu also persuaded: "Yingcao is too modest, so let's be more generous and don't care about it, okay?"

Seeing that both of them were protecting the firefly grass, they suddenly felt powerless, threw the mace away and ignored them.They, they don't know what kind of guy Yingcao is!

"The trees here are all real." Seeing that Jue Xing stopped, Han Xiu walked cautiously along the woods. After returning, his steps became very bold, and he was not afraid of stepping on the air suddenly, "It seems My assumption just now was wrong. So how the hell did we get here?"

"Instead of worrying about why I'm here, it's better to think about how to get out!" Jue rolled his eyes, "I don't want to stay in this damn place any longer!"

"But first figure out how we got here before we can find a way out." Yingcao softly comforted Jue, who was impatient.

"But even the trees are withered here, and there should be no other living things. We can't even find anyone to ask." The little deer man looked around, worried.

"You can run away from living things, but you can't run away from dead things." Han Xiu raised his head and looked into the distance: "Look, what's on the top of the mountain?"

"There is a building!" The little deer man followed Han Xiu's eyes and looked towards the top of the mountain, and immediately became excited, "Although I can't see it clearly, it should be a temple!"

"Temple?" Han Xiu was very depressed, and his originally relaxed expression became a little dignified, "Then we can't enter?"

"Hey, why do you say that?" Yingcao scratched her head and was very puzzled, "Is the temple a place where everyone and demons can worship? Isn't it like this in your place? It's really a strange place."

Han Xiu was taken aback and then realized that he really can't use his own knowledge to judge the affairs of this country. Everything here seems to be different from his own: "In that case, let's go there and have a look. As the only one here One of the buildings, I think there should be clues in it."

"How long did it take for this temple to be dilapidated?" Jue pouted and looked at the dusty old gate with distaste, "The outside is already ruined like this, how can the inside be any better? I don't know." Don't want to find some so-called 'clues' in a pile of dust."

"Oh, it's okay. It's just a little bit broken and dirty. If Xiaojue doesn't want to look for it, I'm still here." Yingcao said while pushing the old door.

"Ah!" Yingcao suddenly screamed and retracted her hand.Everyone was startled by his sudden scream, and Qi Qi looked towards the door. The light gray door that was originally covered with dust was now completely red, and white smoke could even be seen from above.Even if you are not close to this door, you can feel the scorching temperature above.

Yingcao held her scalded fingers with tears in her eyes, her grievance almost turned into reality and overflowed: "It hurts~"

"Hmph! Who told you to push the door recklessly?" A voice sneered at Yingcao.

"Ah, Xiaojue, can't you comfort me even though I'm hurt?" Yingcao's attention was mostly distracted by the burnt fingers, and she didn't pay attention to who made the sound.

"Are you an idiot?" Jue looked at the person vigilantly with a mace, but mocked Yingcao in his mouth, "It's just a burnt finger, don't put on a half-dead expression. What else is there to blame?" They all buckle on my head, but you should look up to see who it is who spoke just now."

"Huh?! Who are you?" Yingcao raised her head and found a bright woman in fiery red appeared in front of them.Although her breasts stood proudly, her facial features looked very cold and dignified, but the mark of flames between her eyebrows added a bit of beauty to her.She was wearing a fiery red floor-length dress, the skirt was decorated with fiery and gorgeous tail feathers, and even her arms were covered with large flakes of feathers.

"Are you the fire phoenix?" Yingcao looked at the woman in front of her with unblinking eyes, forgetting the pain on her hand.The phoenix is ​​a legendary beast!

The visitor was obviously pleased by Yingcao's adoring eyes: "I am not a phoenix, I am the fire seed that was born when the phoenix nirvana, you can call me Phoenix fire."

Yingcao's bright eyes flickered, and his mood was a little depressed. He muttered: "So it's not a phoenix."

Then he cheered up and said to Fenghuanghuo: "Phoenixhuo is also great!"

Phoenix Fire was not annoyed by Yingcao's obvious disappointment, on the contrary, she was very happy, even more happy than Yingcao praised herself directly: "Phoenix is ​​the most noble creature in the world, and as Phoenix Fire, I also feel proud."

"Then why did you prevent us from entering this temple?" Seeing that the two were about to chat, Han Xiu quickly interrupted them.

"Hmph!" Phoenix Fire was a little unhappy when it was interrupted, "I didn't hinder you, but saved you. You have to thank me."

"Cut!" Jue made a disdainful voice from the side, she had long disliked this woman.

Fenghuanghuo felt very annoyed at the disdainful attitude, and his tone became tough: "You don't understand what happened here at all!"

"Then what happened here?" the little deer man asked.
