The author has something to say: a minor repair, it does not affect the plot

The wooden door creaked open.

A face covered with ravines like tree bark and a red hooked nose protruded from the middle. His sharp eyes scanned the seven people in front of the door, and finally fell on the tree demon who was tied up behind him. The radian: "Old goblin, you are really capable."

The dryad was dejected and said nothing, like a rubber balloon that had been mostly deflated.

"Since you're here, you're all my guests, so please come in." The red-nosed witch took a step back, with a smile of unknown meaning between her criss-cross wrinkles.

Ding Mang cautiously looked into the dark tree house, but Lin Yuzhen and Jiang Yi strode in directly.

The red-nosed witch's tree house is not as spacious as the dryad's safe house. In the center of the circular room, there is a steaming cauldron, surrounded by a thick carpet. After entering, the witch sat on the blanket. Got up, took a long pair of tongs, and poked at the crackling firewood.Lin Yuzhen noticed that on the wall behind the witch, there were two wooden doors covered by hanging tapestries.

The rest of the people also came in, and Mr. Dryad was thrown to a nearby corner by them.

"Old goblin, did you bring my snacks?" the witch asked without raising her head, poking the firewood.

Mr. Dryad nodded hurriedly, while showing embarrassment.

The red-nosed witch pulled back her long tongs from the red-hot firewood and pointed in the direction of the dryad. The anchor rope instantly broke into several pieces and fell at its feet.

The rest of the people could still maintain their normal expressions, but Ding Mang's expression couldn't be controlled, and turned pale in a "shua".

The dryad took out the suitcase containing the snacks from nowhere, and presented it to the witch respectfully. The witch opened it and took a look, then flew into a rage: "Old fairy, you are fooling me with something from half a year ago again!" !"

The dryad's face turned greener, and he said tremblingly, "How is it possible? Look again, this is newly made before I came here! How dare I fool you with something half a year ago..."

The red-nosed witch sneered: "I say that every time, and every time it is half a year ago! I think you are really old and confused, and you are getting more and more useless. Not only are the dim sum wrong, but you can't even handle the ingredients properly!"

As he said that, Yu Guang glanced at the group of "ingredients" pointingly.

The tree demon stammered: "They...they are different from the four-legged beasts that came before, I think they might really be able to deal with that monster..."

The red-nosed witch snorted: "Whether I can deal with monsters, what does it have to do with me?"

The tree demon flinched and fell silent.

"I heard that you brought blue mushrooms?" Then, the witch turned to several people with ill intentions and asked.

Lin Yuzhen handed over the suitcase without saying a word.

Du Fei huddled in Lin Yuzhen's pocket, not daring to vent his breath, Shao Ting's complexion didn't change much, but his right hand was clenched secretly, with nails embedded in his palm, his whole body stretched into a bow ready to go.

The witch tapped the ground with her striking red hooked nose, and Lin Yuzhen silently put the suitcase on the thick blanket, and took a step back.

The red-nosed witch took another look at the dryad in the corner.

The dryad immediately ran forward, took the small key of the suitcase from the witch, and unlocked it for her very dog-leggedly.

With a click, the suitcase spread out to both sides, and Shao Ting's heart beat suddenly——

The box that was supposed to be full of mushrooms was empty.

They spent so much time, consumed so many times of using props, and risked their lives to pick the blue mushrooms, and there was not a single one!

Shao Ting wanted to strangle herself in remorse.

Du Fei saw the situation outside through the gap in Lin Yuzhen's pocket, and closed his eyes in despair.

"Ha," the Red-Nosed Witch laughed bitterly, "You are the first group of humans to come here alive, and I wanted to treat you well, but you didn't understand the etiquette of being a guest, so you gave me an empty box. "

"——Then, how should I entertain you?" The witch looked at them with dark eyes, with a strange smile inside.

In the round black cauldron, the sound of boiling water became more and more intense, as if urging the food to go into the pot.

The witch licked her dry, lined lips.

She raised her dry palm like old bark, holding the long tongs in her hand, and slowly pointed it at Lin Yuzhen and the others.

"Wait." Jiang Yi pulled out the box of matches from his pocket at some point, and at the same time as he was polishing them, Usha's figure appeared in the firelight.

"Second wish!" the little girl shouted in mid-air.

"I want you to answer a question truthfully." Jiang Yi ignored the witch's venomous gaze and said calmly.

Usha did not refute, but looked at him with big eyes that seemed to be acquiescing.

"The moment we walked into this room, all the mushrooms went back to where they belonged, right?"

Usha replied with a simple word: "Yes." Then the figure disappeared along with the fire, and the ashes of the burnt match fell on the witch's floor.

The witch watched this little trick not far away, and after hearing Jiang Yi's wish, she snorted disdainfully.

"Let's make a bet," Jiang Yi stepped forward, stood opposite the witch, and said calmly, "I'll stay as a hostage, and give them three hours to go out. If after three hours, they can't get all the mushrooms Bring it back and I'll do it myself; if they do, you can't hurt anyone, we're staying here tonight."

Shao Ting's compulsion to maintain a calm expression was almost unbearable - although Jiang Yi gave them such a great trust, he was very moved, but three hours...how could it be possible to finish picking? !

The red-nosed witch seemed to find it a bit interesting, and said "Oh" in a drawn-out tone, and then asked, "How do I know that after they went out, they didn't run away, but went to pick blue mushrooms?"

"Because we won't leave him alone." Lin Yuzhen's voice sounded faintly from behind Jiang Yi.

"That's right," Shao Ting also said, "We're all a family, and it would be too dishonest to run away—besides, where can we go?"

"Okay, okay," the witch laughed suddenly, her sharp voice made their eardrums sore, she said meaningfully, "I'm really touched—I'll give you some time, before dark, if you can't bring Come back with the correct amount of blue mushrooms, and he's my dinner tonight."

Hearing "Before Dark", Lin Yuzhen had a vague premonition—would witches be so kind?impossible.

Sure enough, she immediately said: "For the sake of your friendship, I'll see you off again."

As soon as they finished speaking, without giving them any time to react, the witch swiped the long pincers, and the door of the tree house slammed open. Except for Jiang Yi, the other six people were swept out of the door by an invisible hurricane and thrown into the sky.The cross wind was divided into two parts in the air, one part blew Shao Ting, Jiang Peng, and Ellis to the right, and the other part blew Lin Yuzhen, Ding Mang, and Du Fei in his pocket to the left. The six people had no resistance at all. I don't know how long they flew in the air in embarrassment, but the hurricane disappeared, and they fell heavily to the ground.

Before Lin Yuzhen and Ding Mang opened their eyes, which were hard to open due to the wind, their bodies had already sensed the dangerous aura around them.

One pair, two pairs... Countless green eyes surrounded him from all directions.

Lin Yuzhen lifted his sore eyelids and immediately understood where the witch had sent them - the area where wild beasts were rampant and he and Jiang Yi walked by the anchor rope.

But right now, there is no time for them to climb a tree to hide.

Lin Yuzhen touched his pocket, pulled out the anchor rope, checked Du Fei's safety with his other hand, and Ding Mang quickly got up from the ground.

The encirclement of the wolves slowly tightened. Lin Yuzhen looked around, and there was a tall tree not too far away, but the speed of anchoring up and pulling the rope to climb would never be faster than the wild wolves, so they had to deal with it first. Bo attacked, and then climbed the tree to avoid, but the problem is, there is only one anchor rope, how can Ding Mang go up in time?

It was too late to think carefully about these questions, Lin Yuzhen and Ding Mang stood with their backs facing the wolves, fully alert.

Ding Mang said suddenly: "I have used up all my meat slices."

Lin Yuzhen gave a low "hmm".

This also means that, apart from the anchor rope in their hands, they don't have any tools available for the time being—there are two uses of the glass cover, but it is obviously not suitable for wild wolves that come from all directions and are not very concentrated. .

Ding Mang took a deep breath, as if he was trying to cheer himself up, but his voice still trembled unavoidably: "I'll run outside in a while, and I should be able to distract some of you. You take Du Fei..."

Lin Yuzhen instantly understood what he meant, and interrupted with a frown: "It's not that time yet."

"However, the time is too tight..." Ding Mang smiled wryly, "Even if the witch extends the time until dark, so many mushrooms, so many pythons..."

Lin Yuzhen didn't have time to explain so much: "Now we just need to think about how to go out."

Ding Mang shook his head, his voice was very low, as if he was talking to himself: "That's too difficult, even if I go out, I can't help much..."

He also wanted to say that the probability of him stopping here is much higher than that of escaping. It is not worth wasting the time that should have been spent on collecting mushrooms for an event with a low probability, but if he can win for the whole team Do something, and it wouldn't be a pity to stop here - from a more realistic point of view, as long as they win against the team in another parallel instance, everyone will have considerable bonus points.

It's just that there was no time to say the following words, the wolves were getting closer and closer, they could already clearly see the saliva dripping from between their teeth, and they could hear the sound of wild wolves panting.

Ding Mang suddenly stopped, and at a certain moment, he gritted his teeth and rushed out without warning!

In an instant, more than half of the wild wolves surrounded him in the direction where he was fleeing.

Lin Yuzhen threw out the anchor rope, and swung a small half of the wild wolf that was pounced on him for a distance. Amid the sound of metal tearing flesh, he took the time to glance back at Ding Mang—the fastest wild wolf had already caught him from behind. Fell down, and the rest swarmed up, wrapping the prey tightly on the ground.

Lin Yuzhen gritted her teeth, clenched the knot in her hand, and pulled away the wild wolf in front of her even harder. From the corner of her eye, Ding Mang's figure was completely invisible, and the wild wolves on the periphery probably couldn't figure it out, so they gradually dispersed. Go, turn around and run in his direction again.

The air was filled with an increasingly thick smell of blood, and Lin Yuzhen's eyes gradually turned bloody.

To deal with these wild wolves alone, it is inevitable that he will be at a loss. He clearly knows that if he continues to delay, he will be dragged to death by them sooner or later, and he must take Du Fei out of this area safely before he can collect and decide Jiang Yi, and even decide their entire team. The blue mushroom of team life and death.

Kicking away the end that had fallen to his feet, Lin Yuzhen no longer hesitated, ignoring several painful wounds on his legs, he threw the anchor on the tree closest to him, and raced against time to tighten the knot and climb up .

……

When Lin Yuzhen jumped down from the tree exhausted, he was almost exhausted.

With his dizzy head on his head, Du Fei struggled out of his pocket and began to heal Lin Yuzhen who was lying on the grass.

When Lin Yuzhen's wounds were slowly healing, Jiang Peng also fell from the sky.

Still ashamed and covered in injuries, but this time, after waiting for a while, Shao Ting and Ellis still didn't show up.

Jiang Peng wiped his face wearily, and first scolded the red-nosed witch for not being human. It is conceivable that their situation will not be any better than that of Lin Yuzhen and Ding Mang. There is simply nothing worse than this.

And Shao Ting and Ellis made the same choice as Ding Mang in that area.

The two lay dead on the grass in silence for a while, and neither of them expressed any determination, but no matter what, they knew that this round must be won.

After a brief rest, the two rushed towards the tree house of the Red Nose Witch.

Du Fei returned to Lin Yuzhen's pocket, feeling more and more confused, but his language function was limited, so he couldn't ask anything—shouldn't they collect all the mushrooms except the smallest one?Along the way, both Jiang Peng and Lin Yuzhen turned a blind eye to the blue mushroom bushes on the way and just hurried on their way.

Finally, before dark, they returned to the tree house of the red-nosed witch.

Lin Yuzhen held Du Fei in the palm of his hand, and gently placed it in front of the smallest blue mushroom.

Du Fei's head was about to swell - not long ago, they had suffered a loss on this mushroom, why did they want to touch it again?

But based on his trust in Lin Yuzhen, Du Fei also carefully blew fire.

Then Jiang Peng was in charge of dealing with the smaller golden python. They successfully picked off the mushroom and put it in a special suitcase.

They knocked again on the witch's door.

"Oh, it's very fast," the red-nosed witch pretended to be surprised, "Hey, how many people seem to be missing?"

Lin Yuzhen stared at him coldly, and put down the suitcase in his hand heavily.

The dryad trotted forward again and opened it for the witch.

I saw a small blue mushroom lying quietly in the box.

The red-nosed witch couldn't help laughing, and glanced at Jiang Yi behind her gloatingly: "Your friend really values ​​love and righteousness, and you have to stay with me when you cook."

Lin Yuzhen said coldly: "What's the rush?"

He took out the transparent glass cover, squatted down, and buckled it directly on the blue mushroom.

In an instant, the mushroom grew to the size of most of the mushrooms on the way, and then, a new small mushroom appeared beside it, one after another...

It didn't take long before dense blue mushrooms grew under the glass cover.

The witch's face changed first, and then returned to normal, with a strange and weird smile on her face again.She watched Lin Yuzhen lift the glass cover, grinned and revealed a mouthful of white teeth, and announced the result gloatingly: "Children, the game is over."
