[Pokemon] Tracing the source

Chapter 20 The Confused Illusory Fog Forest (1)

On the way to Xueqing City, they accidentally ran into a fellow villager Xiao Chu, and the three of them traveled together, planning to go to Xueqing Plain through the Illusory Fog Forest.As the name suggests, this forest is located between Xueqing City and Khaki City, and is famous for its phantoms at night in the traceable area.It is rumored that those phantom fogs inhabit the forest and are dissatisfied with the masterpieces of ghost elves who are disturbed by humans, but recently there are also sayings that there are real ghosts in the phantom fog forest. Are those ghosts who seem to be real and frightening phantoms tricked by elves or something else? Mastermind, no one has come to a real conclusion for years.

Although the rumors about the nighttime are very scary, the phantom mist forest during the day is not much different from the normal forest, so many travelers still choose to venture through here to the Xueqing Plain in order to save time.

It was already evening, the sky was gradually darkening, and the bleak atmosphere in the forest became more and more obvious.It was quiet all around, only the occasional cry of an unknown creature made one's heart tense.

The three of them are still groping forward in the forest.The white-haired girl walked in the front, and Leolu followed her; the red-haired boy was in the middle, and the last one was a black-haired boy holding a compass, with a rare dignified expression.

Suddenly there was a soft sound behind him, and the two people in front turned their heads, and saw Shuo Ye silently stop, and raised the north-facing compass in his hand.

The compass was trembling violently, and the pointer in the middle was spinning 360 degrees rapidly, as if being chased by something terrible.

Looking at the weird compass, the team was silent for three seconds, and then two bursts of screams suddenly broke out.

""Eh--? ? ! ! ""

Xiao Luo was the first to react, and rushed forward to snatch the compass. After shaking it left and right for a long time, the pointer still failed to return to its original shape.

"How could this be?"

Xiao Chu, who was a step behind, stared at her with wide eyes, and his voice sounded unbelievable.

"So... we've... lost our way?"

"I'm lost." Sakuya sighed, "The pointer has probably been affected by that force since it entered the forest, so now I'm not sure where we are."

Xiao Luo looked up at the already dark sky, turned her head with a stiff neck, "That means we won't be able to get out of here before dark...yes, we're going to sleep in the forest, right?"

Sakuya nodded.

"Really or not?" Xiao Chu scratched his head in frustration, and glanced at the white-haired girl, "I should have expected to encounter such a thing when I walked with you, Xiao Shuai."

"I don't want to either!—" Xiao Luo was unconvinced, and then softened again, looking at Shuo Ye miserably, "Are we really going to sleep in the forest?"

Shuo Ye pondered for a while, "Sleeping in the open is the safest way. The phantom fog forest at night is very dangerous, so it's best not to act rashly. The most urgent thing is to find a place with a relatively open view and set up a tent first." He looked at the somewhat stiff The two comforted each other, "It's okay, we can take turns keeping vigil with the elves. Phantoms are just pranks by ghost elves. As long as you don't provoke them, they won't harm humans."

"Well, that's right, it's just elves of the ghost system." Xiao Chu nodded, and repeated it as if to cheer himself up, "Then let's go forward and see if there is any suitable camping place. place."

It was getting darker and darker, and gradually the sun was no longer visible.There was a layer of mist in the forest, floating faintly among the trees of various shapes, making the surrounding atmosphere a bit mysterious and unreal.Xiao Luo rubbed the goosebumps on her arms. Perhaps it was because of the absence of sunlight. The temperature in the forest was much lower than when they first entered, and now it made people chatter their teeth.

This time, Shuo Ye walked in the front, and Xiao Luo and Xiao Chu followed behind him.With the disappearance of the sun, the uniqueness of the Magic Fog Forest is gradually revealed. There are more and more mist coming from nowhere, scattered in all directions, and the surrounding trees are somewhat indistinct under the cover of the mist. It has become a variety of figures with only outlines.

Occasionally, a gust of night wind brings rustling sounds, just like the whispers of those wild ghosts in horror movies, which makes one's scalp tense.

"Waowao..." There was another faint cool breeze, Lioulu pricked up his ears, and tugged at the corner of Xiao Luo's clothes with tears in his eyes.

"It's okay, Leo, it's just Night Breeze." Xiao Luo hugged it in his arms, rubbing the top of its head with his chin.

"Lioru, you're still a child." Xiao Chu on the side shook his finger, "If you're afraid at this level—"

Before he could finish speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the forest, and the branches swayed violently wherever the wind passed, causing the whole forest to resound with howling ghosts one after another.

"Woooooooooooooo"

It took a long time for the tragic cries to stop, and Shuo Ye looked at the two people with their eyes closed and refusing to let go, speechless, "Who said just now that only children are afraid?" coming?"

"Because.....it's really scary." With a sad face, Xiao Luo made the same expression as Liolu, who was holding his ears in his arms, "suddenly screamed like that..."

"It's just the night wind." Shuo Ye imitated Xiao Luo's tone when he comforted Lioru just now, "The mist will slow down the passing speed of the wind, which is probably the reason why ghost howls often occur at night in the Illusory Fog Forest."

"It's still windy after doing it for a long time." Xiao Chu let go of Shuo Ye in embarrassment, feeling a little guilty about his actions just now.A burst of red light came out from his waist, but it was Guisi who was taken back the poke ball during the day and was unwilling to be lonely.

"Gas, gasssss!" The first thing Guisi popped up was of course laughing at his trainer, his vivid face showed a huge smile, his mouth was almost cracked to the back of his ears, and he walked around Xiao Chu Turn around and look very underplayed.

"You bastard!" Xiao Chu grabbed it angrily, "If you have time to laugh at me, why don't you go ahead and help find the way!"

"gas~" Guisi squeezed out a rather disdainful expression, and floated leisurely to the front of Shuo Ye, with a look of wrapping around me.

The fog is getting thicker and thicker, and there is a hint of coldness in the air. There is still the low howling sound of the wind blowing through the forest; the branches with only outlines overlapped in the fog, under the subconscious imagination It turned into a group of demons dancing wildly, like ghosts about to pounce.

"Gas..." Guisi didn't float very far, and a few drops of cold sweat broke out on the back of his head, and he wobbled forward on the road.Suddenly there was another gust of wind, and the crying and howling in the forest suddenly became extremely shrill. Guisi rushed back behind the trainer in a jerk, and refused to come out no matter how much he screamed.

"You bastard, didn't you say it was on your body?!" Xiao Chu grabbed it from behind and asked in a low voice.

"Gas, gas, gasgas..." Guisi looked away a little guilty, in exchange for Xiaochu's heartbroken reaction.

"You said you are afraid of ghosts? Come on, you are a ghost elf, you tell me you are afraid of ghosts?!"

"gas...gasgas~☆" Guisi curled his mouth, blinked at his trainer, and turned into a red light and rushed back into the elf ball on Xiaochu's waist.

Xiao Chu frantically shook the poke ball, but Gui Si acted as if he would not come out after killing me, so he had to give up.

"Pfft..." Xiao Luo laughed out of embarrassment, "Xiao Chu, you ghost is really interesting. This is the first time I've seen a ghost that is afraid of the same kind."

"..." Xiao Chu looked at the poke ball, raised his eyelids with a complicated expression, and was unable to respond to Xiao Luo's complaints for the first time.

After being disturbed by Gui Si, the atmosphere in the team became relatively active. Everyone no longer made a fuss about the disturbance in the forest, and the speed of progress was also accelerated a lot.

After walking for a while, the group found a clearing in the forest suitable for camping, so they helped each other put down their backpacks and began to prepare for setting up a tent.

Xiaoluo and Lioulu were in charge of stabilizing the support of the tent so that Suoye above could put the tent cloth on it.While he was busy, Lioru suddenly raised his dog ears and looked around for a while.

"What's the matter, Leo?" Xiao Luo stopped his hands and asked.

"waowao..." Leolu was also a little puzzled, pointing to the bushes behind the clearing, "wao..."

"What do you think is over there?" Xiao Luo looked in the direction it pointed, but found nothing unusual.

"Wait—" Just as he was about to say that there was nothing unusual, the bush suddenly moved. Xiao Luo squinted his eyes and moved closer, wanting to take a closer look.

"Xiao Luo, what's the matter with you?" Shuo Ye, who was setting up a tent above, saw her and turned to ask.

"Leo seems to have found something here—" Xiao Luo stood up and wanted to push away the bushes, but suddenly felt a chill down her back. She swallowed her throat, raised her head, and found that there was no place in the depths of the originally dark forest. When did a pair of blood-red eyes light up, and they were staring at him.

"That...Suo...Suoye..." There was already a buzzing sound of wings flapping beside my ears, and the figures of those blood-red-eyed masters became more and more clear, " We seem to have... got into trouble..."

"What?" Shuo Ye hadn't finished asking when he suddenly saw a large swarm of needle bees shooting up into the sky from the forest, pressing towards them aggressively.

"What the hell is that?!" Xiao Chu, who was busy on the other side, raised his head, was shocked, and quickly threw away the things in his hands and fled outside.

"Run ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

This group of giant needle bees that came out of nowhere was terrifying in scale, and they couldn't see the bottom at a glance. They could only feel that the scary stitches were densely packed everywhere they looked.The three were chased away and fled desperately. During this period, Xiao Luo and Xiao Chu also called out their fire-breathing dragons to help out, but the flames didn't seem to affect the group of big needle bees. One wave dispersed and the other immediately rushed Come up without giving the prey a chance to breathe.

I don't know how long they ran, until the three of them were exhausted and collapsed on the ground, and the group of big needle bees disappeared.Xiao Luo panted and sat up from the ground, looking at the quiet forest with dense fog behind her with lingering fear.

"wao..." Lioulu stretched out a paw tremblingly from her arms.Xiao Luo didn't have time to take care of it when he was so focused on running away just now, and then he realized that he had beaten Leo Lule so badly, so he quickly put it down.

"Why are there so many big needle bees in this kind of place? They come and go without a trace." Xiao Chu lay on the ground gasping for breath, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, "I was chasing so closely just now, and now another one There are none left."

"Xiao Chu, why do you feel so sorry to hear your words?" Xiao Luo looked sideways.

"I'm just explaining the strange thing." The red-haired boy stood up from the ground and frowned, "Recall, did any of you find out how those big needle bees disappeared? Normally, you would at least see them give up chasing Returning to the lair, but this time it is more like chasing after it and disappearing out of thin air."

"And they are abnormally not afraid of flames. Logically speaking, as long as the fire-breathing dragon's unique move appears, the big needle bees will naturally have scruples and give up chasing them." Shuo Ye touched his chin and recalled.

"So?" Xiao Luo hugged Lioru and looked at the two of them.

"Probably..." Xiao Chu and Shuo Ye looked at each other, and they both saw the same speculation in each other's eyes, "The big needle bees just now are the unique phantoms in the Misty Forest, right?"

"What—?!" Xiao Luo's eyes widened, "We were chased so far in such a mess, is it an illusion?"
