Chapter 307 A lot of eyes
When finally telling the story of "The Frog Prince", Bai Zhou suddenly said: "Why do I feel that the experiences of this Frog Prince are so similar to those of Hong Hong?"
"You think so too!"
Bai Zhou nodded and said, "Why don't we tell him this story to give him some confidence."
"Then let's wait until we find the Masked Immortal." After tidying up, the two set off towards the dense woods in the distance.
The terrain of this forest was much higher than where they were. After walking for a while toward the forest, they suddenly saw a crack in the ground in front of them, about one meter wide.
This gap was too ordinary, and there was no danger of being unable to cross it. At this time, Xiang Youyou took a big step nonchalantly and crossed to the other side. She just took two steps and saw that Bai Zhou was not following, so she stopped and turned around.
I saw Bai Zhou squatting in front of the crack, looking carefully into the crack, very curious.
She turned back to Bai Zhou and stepped back. She knew that Bai Zhou's perception was always much more sensitive than hers, so she asked, "What's wrong? Is there something under here?"
"I was just thinking, how come there is a crack in this earth? And it seems to extend to no end."
Xiang You walked around and looked around, and found that this was indeed the case. Within the range of what he could see with his naked eyes, he could not see the beginning and end of the seam.
"Indeed, but this is not a strange thing. We should be inside a big mountain now. The appearance of such cracks should be related to the previous earthquake."
She pulled up the boat, crossed the gap together, and continued walking towards the forest. After passing the gap, the two of them kept climbing. There were lawns all around, as smooth as a manicured golf course.
After walking for a long time, both of them felt a little tired, so they lay down on the grass to rest.
At this time, a breeze blew, which was gentle and refreshing, making them both very comfortable. Xiang Youyou looked at the cat-head-like clouds floating in the sky and said, "I really don't know how my parents are doing now."
Yes, and my cat."
"They must be expecting you to come back!" Bai Zhou rested his head on his hands and looked at the sky with a smile.
After hearing this, Xiang Youyou sat up and said, "You're right, we need to roll up our sleeves and get started." After that, she pushed the cuffs of her sleeves onto her upper arms, picked up Bai Zhou and continued walking forward.
.
Approaching this dense forest, they found that the trees in the forest were all bearing many round fruits. What made Xiang Youyou feel strange was that some of the fruits on the same tree were as big as volleyballs, and some were only as big as volleyballs.
The table tennis balls are quite different in size and color, so they really don't look like the same thing.
She walked quickly to the foot of a shorter tree, stood on tiptoes and stretched out her arms. She was about to pick off an earth-yellow fruit the size of a fist to see what was going on. Suddenly, the outer skin of the fruit opened like eyelids, revealing
There are fruits like eyeballs inside.
When the fruit opened its eyes, Xiang Youyou screamed in fright and sat down on the ground.
"Eye...eye!" she screamed, covering her mouth.
Bai Zhou held the crane-crossing needle and stood in front of Xiang You's body with a vigorous step. He opened his eyes wide and carefully observed the "eyeball".
I saw these "eyeballs" staring at Bai Zhou's eyes. The picture was truly "big eyes staring at small eyes". Bai Zhou walked around and found the black "pupil" in the middle of the "eyeballs".
It actually moves in the direction of its own actions.
At this moment, some "eyeballs" on the nearby trees also opened their eyes, probably because they were awakened by Xiang Youyou's scream just now.
Suddenly being stared at by so many eyes of different sizes and colors, Xiang You's scalp felt numb. Although Bai Zhou's tentative attack movements proved that these eyes were not dangerous, she was still frightened.
Dare to get up at will.
"Come, let me carry you away!" Bai Zhou squatted down and said.
Xiang Youshou shook his head buried in his knees and refused to raise his head. When Bai Zhou saw this, he said no more, just put his arm around her shoulders and sat with her silently.
After a long time, she didn't see anything terrible happen. She calmed down, raised her head and opened her eyes slightly to look around. She saw that those eyes were closed again, and they were still the same as when they arrived.
Time is ordinary, just a piece of fruit.
"Okay...it seems to be okay!" Xiang Youyou became a little bolder now and said softly.
"They are just fruits that will peel automatically. Just keep your voice down," Bai Zhou replied.
She looked at the quiet fruits on the tree again, and felt that this was really the case. Could it be that they were the same as mimosa? She suddenly felt that she was too timid, and her legs were actually frightened by some plants.
To say that Xiang Youyou had such a reaction just now, it must be attributed to a "fever dream" she had when she was a child. It was a winter night, it was New Year's Eve, and it was her tenth birthday. She suddenly felt
She had a high fever, reaching over thirty-nine degrees. Her parents were so frightened that they immediately took her to the hospital for intravenous drip.
She remembered that she was lying on the hospital bed and vaguely saw many eyes flying in from outside the ward, blinking at her. At that time, she was so frightened that she kept talking nonsense, pointing at the ceiling, and yelling
: "Eyes, eyes are here..."
Her mother thought she had burned out her brain, so she sat by her bed and shed tears. Although her fever subsided the next day, those eyes continued to bother her for a long time.
So when she saw so many eyes, she felt as if she had gone back to the night when she had a high fever as a child. It was really scary. Although when she grew up, she had seen scenes like this with many eyes in some comic book stories.
But it is a painting after all, so there is no such immersive feeling.
Bai Zhou wanted to pick her up and move forward, but she refused. She smiled awkwardly and said, "It's okay, I'm not afraid anymore."
"Is it going to be fine so soon?"
Bai Zhou was a little surprised, because she was definitely not pretending to be in that state just now.
"Well, Ah Li has already done it for me." Xiang Youyou smiled, thinking that the story of having a fever and seeing ghosts as a child had just replayed in her mind, and she was like an outsider, watching the whole thing.
Once again. Now, when she saw those eyes on the tree again, she didn't feel scary at all.
"Why do you feel that after you two become one, you will be able to solve many things by yourself and you will no longer need me?" Bai Zhou suddenly said with some sadness.
