Chapter 27 Entering the Ghost Face Tree Forest



After resting for a night, Shen Zhiyi and her companion prepared to take the Ghost Face Flower to the Ghost Face Tree Forest.

Let's see if this Ghost-faced Flower can lead them safely through the Ghost-faced Tree Forest.

The little dried fish refused to go back to the pet space, so Shen Zhiyi had no choice but to carry it away.

Arriving at the edge of the Ghost Face Tree forest, while the vines of the Ghost Face Trees were still slowly climbing.

The two quickly took the ghost-faced flower out of their backpacks.

The vines that had been crawling towards them suddenly stopped.

They slowly stood upright, seemingly wondering what their goal was.

How could it disappear so suddenly?

The vines, in a human-like manner, circled around, but still couldn't find their target.

They could only slowly crawl back up.

After the vines climbed back up, Shen Zhiyi and Chen Peng breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems the Ghost Face Flower is useful. As long as you hold it in your hand, the Ghost Face Tree vines won't be able to smell your scent and naturally won't be able to find you.

The two carefully entered the forest of ghost-faced trees.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the Ghost Face Trees are so widely distributed, they wouldn't want to risk entering the Ghost Face Tree forest.

Upon entering the Ghost Face Tree Forest, Shen Zhiyi discovered that there were no other creatures to be seen besides the Ghost Face Trees.

There wasn't even a single insect.

The forest of ghost-faced trees was eerily quiet.

The only sound was the sound of their footsteps on the withered branches that had fallen from the ghost-faced tree.

Ghost-faced trees were everywhere, and the ground was bare except for some branches and fallen leaves.

The ghost-faced tree has white leaves covered with eerie patterns.

Driven by curiosity, Shen Zhiyi picked two leaves.

[Ghost Face Tree Leaves: One of the raw materials for making calming incense, it has a calming effect, but Ghost Face Tree leaves are difficult to harvest, and many people have lost their lives trying to collect them.]

Shen Zhiyi understood; that's how the ghost faces on the tree bark came about.

But since we're already here...

Shen Zhiyi took out several wooden boxes and asked Chen Peng to help pick the leaves of the ghost-face tree.

Although Chen Peng did not understand what Concentration Incense was, he did not refuse Shen Zhiyi's request.

Because of the ghost-faced flowers on the two people, the ghost-faced tree did not react to their act of picking leaves.

Shen Zhiyi and the other person picked a total of ten boxes.

Although we don't need it for the time being, it's better to be prepared.

During the harvesting process, they also found some treasure chests on the branches or under the trees.

The two continued walking forward.

Not long after they left, Shen Zhiyi had already obtained several treasure chests.

Moreover, most of them are green, with one or two blue treasure chests mixed in.

Shen Zhiyi was very excited.

The forest of ghost-faced trees, which I had initially found somewhat eerie and terrifying, suddenly became quite endearing.

Chen Peng, who was on the other side, also obtained quite a few treasure chests.

Both of them collected quite a few treasure chests along the way.

Shen Zhiyi discovered a red treasure chest embedded in a ghost mask on a tree.

Shen Zhiyi was somewhat tempted.

But the thought that the ghost masks on the tree might have been made by living humans made her feel disgusted.

After some hesitation, I decided to take the treasure chest.

Shen Zhiyi reached out to grab the treasure chest and pulled hard.

The red box remained completely still.

Chen Peng also came closer, "It seems like the treasure chest is completely sealed by the branches of the Ghost Face Tree."

"It's alright, I'll try to pry it off with the Silver Moon Spear."

As she spoke, Shen Zhiyi took out the Silver Moon Spear, preparing to pry open the treasure chest.

The dried fish suddenly let out a loud cry.

Shen Zhiyi didn't take it seriously. Little Fish had been letting out a howl every now and then since they entered the Ghost Face Tree forest, and she was used to it.

But when she inadvertently turned her head and glanced at the dried fish.

She knew what the dried fish was calling.

The vines of the ghost-faced tree moved!

And they were moving in the direction they were coming from!

Shen Zhiyi quickly looked down at the ghost-face flower pinned to her clothes.

As expected.

The ghost-faced flower has withered.

It was hanging listlessly on the clothes at that moment.

Shen Zhiyi quickly called out, "Brother Peng, hurry up and get another Ghost Face Flower!"

Chen Peng didn't dare to delay and quickly took out a new one.

The system backpack has a preservation function, so they are not worried that the Ghost Flower will wither if it is placed in the backpack.

After the ghost-faced flowers were replaced, the vines stopped moving again.

I just kept spinning in circles, not understanding why my target had disappeared again.

They searched for a while before dispersing.

"It seems we need to keep a close eye on the Ghost Face Flower." Chen Peng only loosened his grip on the axe after the vines dispersed.

Shen Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief, picked up Xiaoyugan and gave her a kiss, "Luckily Xiaoyugan is smart, otherwise we two careless people would probably be doomed."

"Little Fish has done a great job. Once we get out of the Ghost Face Tree forest, I'll give you grilled fish to eat." Chen Peng came over and patted Little Fish's head.

The dried fish's eyes lit up when it heard the words "grilled fish".

Sure enough! It really is the most promising leopard among those chasing clouded leopards!

While the other leopards were still eating those unpalatable foods, I, Little Dried Fish, was already enjoying delicious grilled fish!

Shen Zhiyi put the dried fish on the ground and continued to use the Silver Moon Spear to pry open the treasure chest.

Perhaps it was because Shen Zhiyi used a lot of force, but she pried the treasure chest off in no time.

"Done!"

They put away the treasure chest and continued walking forward.

We stopped for a short rest and ate something.

Shen Zhiyi opened all the treasure chests first.

She worried that the remaining two ghost-faced flowers wouldn't be able to last until they left the ghost-faced tree forest.

Therefore, obtaining new Ghost Flower is of utmost importance.

There are eleven green treasure chests, four blue treasure chests, and one red treasure chest in total.

We didn't see a single white treasure chest.

Chen Peng speculated that the white treasure chests were likely located on the outer perimeter.

[Random Spirit Fruit Seed*1, Map Fragment*1, Spirit Fruit*5, Immortal Spirit Grass*2, Ghost Face Flower*6, Note*4, Nebula*2]

Good heavens, Nebula actually appeared in the green treasure chest!

Shen Zhiyi was utterly shocked.

Chen Peng was very envious. His Nebula was only six square meters. He wanted to expand it, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough materials, so the matter was put on hold.

[Blueprint*2, Treasure Map*1, Lucky Card*1]

Lucky Cards!

Without hesitation, Shen Zhiyi crushed the card, increasing her luck stat by one point.

Chen Peng couldn't hold back his tears, which were almost streaming down his face.

He had never been so jealous of anyone before!

Shen Zhiyi chuckled twice at him.

Continue opening red treasure chests.

[Prescription*1]

It turned out to be a prescription.

[Red Potion: Randomly restores health points over a short period of time with no side effects. Crafting materials: 5x Fairy Grass, 5x Water Poria, 5x Imperial Spirit Grass. Crafting time: 5 minutes. (Requires a crafting station; only one recipe is available.)]

Although a medicine-making station is needed, Shen Zhiyi was already very surprised and delighted to have obtained this prescription.

After all, there was only one copy of this prescription, and no one else had it except her.
