Chapter 51: Entering the Forest of Lost Netherness
After saying goodbye to the old lady, Wu Mo led Huangfuchen and others to several houses to ask about the situation in detail.
After asking about the fourth family, Wu Mo said to the three of them: "The investigation is almost complete, we can prepare to enter the Luoyou Forest."
"Do you already know what evil is causing this?" Shen Lingqi asked Wu Mo.
"I don't know." Wu Mo responded calmly, but did not explain. He just said: "Let's go northwest and enter the Luoyou Forest from there."
"Didn't you divine before that there were two evil spirits in the south of the center?" Hua Chi said, "Our current location is in the southeast of Luoyou Forest. If we run to the northwest and enter, isn't it a bit completely opposite?"
"It's difficult to deal with those two evil spirits gathered together." Wu Mo said, "Let's deal with the one in the northwest first to reduce the threat."
Although this reason was reasonable, the three of them felt a little awkward, but they didn't ask any more questions. They just followed her instructions and sat on the griffin to circle around the outside of Luoyou Forest and reach the northwest.
Although the gryphon is extremely fast, because the Luoyou Forest is so vast, it took five or six days of flying to reach it.
After arriving, Wu Mo and the others rested for another night in a nearby town. After getting organized, they went directly to Luoyou Forest the next day.
The forest is full of dangers, including birds and beasts, and even mythical beasts appear in the central area.
Therefore, Huangfuchen did not dare to summon a gryphon as a mount inside. After all, it would be too conspicuous. If groups of flying fantasy beasts attacked, even if they were very powerful, it would be extremely troublesome to deal with them.
Therefore, the group could only enter it on foot.
Although it was the second time to enter Luoyou Forest, because this time it was from the northwest, it was different from the previous range of activities, so Wu Mo was also very unfamiliar.
The Luoyou Forest during the day is not as gloomy as at night. The trees inside cover the sky and the sun, and their branches and leaves are lush.
If this trip is not to ward off evil spirits, it can be regarded as a fun trip.
"Wu Mo, there is a fantasy beast lurking in the grass ahead." As they were walking, Xuebao suddenly raised his head and said to Wu Mo.
Of course, all Huangfuchen and others heard in their ears were meows.
"Are you hungry, cat?" Hua Chi joked to Wu Mo.
Wu Mo ignored him, gently brushed Xuebao's fur with his hand, and moved his gaze to the grass not far ahead.
After observing carefully, I saw a brown spot looming in the green grass after being blown by the wind.
Wu Mo's hand on the cat paused for a moment, and when he saw Shen Lingqi walking forward unconsciously, and about to reach the dangerous area, Wu Mo stopped her: "Shen Lingqi."
"What?" Shen Lingqi turned his head, feeling strange.
This was the first time that Wu Mo called her by her first name and surname instead of politely calling her 'Miss Shen'.
"Come here." Wu Mo said, "It's dangerous there."
As soon as these words came out, not only Shen Lingqi, but also Huangfu Chen and Hua Chi couldn't help but feel wary.
Shen Lingqi's movements suddenly stiffened, thinking that the evil spirit was coming, and immediately turned around and ran towards Huangfuchen.
Hua Chi unconsciously took a few steps forward and stood in front of them.
Seeing that his words made several people present become nervous, Wu Mo knew that they had misunderstood and couldn't help but smile: "It's not evil."
"It's just that there's a fantasy beast lurking in the grass ahead, I'm just reminding you."
