“Hoohoo!”
Another gust of strong wind blew past her ears, and Hua Shi's heart was pounding. An ominous premonition enveloped her whole body.
It was just past noon, but the sky was already dark, with dark clouds hanging overhead. The sounds of wind and rustling branches mixed together, and there was no other sound.
The view in front of me was blocked by the vast white fog, and I couldn't even see the shadows of trees half a meter away.
For a moment, Hua Shi stood there at a loss, feeling a bit caught in a dilemma.
“Hehehe—!”
As my thoughts were churning, a strange sound suddenly came from the distant woods.
Hua Shi suddenly looked up and looked in the direction of the sound.
There was a thick fog in front of me and I couldn't see anything clearly.
"Jiezhizhi!——"
She had never heard such a strange cry before. It sounded like the cry of a monkey, but also like the cry of a person who was deliberately suppressing it and tearing it out of his throat.
Weird, long and loud...
The entire forest seemed to be echoing with this cry.
“You’re so arrogant——!”
The voice suddenly changed its tone and became louder.
Following this sound, similar calls echoed from all over the forest.
"Jie Zhizhi..."
For a moment, the same strange cry rang out one after another in the forest.
Hua Shi leaned his back against the tree trunk, broke out in a cold sweat, and swallowed hard.
What on earth is this thing...!
A light bulb went off in my head, and I remembered what Xie Mingchi was talking about...the mountain spirit!
Could this cry be from a mountain spirit?
Judging from the sound, it seems like there are more than one, like a large group of them.
Hua Shi didn't have time to think about it. The cry that came with it seemed to be approaching her direction little by little.
"Jiezhizhi!"
A cry came from above his head. Hua Shi looked up, his pupils dilated, and his heart suddenly stopped beating.
"Boom! Boom!"
She seemed to be able to clearly feel the rapid and powerful beating of her heart in her chest.
"Jiezhi!"
Lying above her head, the creature covered with fur and with six arms and legs was clinging tightly to the tree trunk. Its head, which was sticking out, was small, but its eyes were surprisingly large.
As it opened its mouth and barked, she could clearly see its sharp teeth...
Hua Shi was so frightened by what she saw that she stood still. The sound of her heart beating in her chest brought her back to her senses and she took two steps back little by little.
“Jie——!”
A sharp cry was heard, and the 'thing' lying on the tree trunk suddenly pounced towards her.
Before Hanashi's brain could react, her body had already responded. Without a pause, she turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
“Jiezhizhi——!!”
The cries in her ears became more and more frequent, and Hua Shi was almost scared to death.
Her legs moved very fast, not daring to stop at all...
"Jiezhizhi!"
The cry followed her like a shadow. There was a misty fog in front of her, and she was surrounded by "monsters" that made no sound and were screaming. Hua Shi was shocked and scared.
“Bang!——”
Something fell to the ground with a loud bang, hitting her directly in front of her.
Hua Shi paused, looked carefully, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Good boy, it’s still those things from before…
As she stopped, the cries around her became louder and louder. Looking up, she saw several strangely shaped "things" lying on the tree trunks around where she was standing.
She was surrounded by these things...
Knowing that she had nowhere to escape, Hua Shi silently swallowed, took a deep breath, and looked around vigilantly.
These things didn't seem to want to attack her...
"Jie Zhizhi..."
A smaller creature suddenly jumped down from the tree and landed lightly on the ground.
The closer we get, the clearer the flowers become.
Three arms, three legs, covered in hair, a short body, a small head, and big, bulging eyes...
This corresponds to what Hua Yu said to her in the morning, a mountain spirit... This should be a mountain spirit...
She had never seen such a strange animal. It looked a bit like a wild monkey, but it had two extra hands and feet. It looked very uncoordinated, and when it moved, it looked a bit like a spider crawling.
When Hua was being stared at by a pair of strange big eyes, his hair stood on end and his face turned pale.
What Xie Mingchi said is true...
I don't know where that brat Hua Yu ran off to. If he didn't go into the mountains, it would be fine. But if he ran into the mountains like her, I don't know if he would encounter some other ferocious beasts by now...
After all, Xie Mingchi’s original words were that the mountain spirits came out to look for food, and recently the wild beasts in the deep mountains will also run out, which is very dangerous!
In the panic of the flower time, my thoughts were confused and I had all sorts of random thoughts.
At this time, the mountain monster that looked a little thin had moved to her feet, stood less than twenty centimeters away from her, and stopped.
Hua Shi turned her head and looked around, estimating the number of mountain elves surrounding her.
One, two... seven in total. Their cries were sharp and loud, and she had thought there would be a lot of them...
“Squeak, squeak…”
The little mountain elf standing at her feet was the smallest and had the sparsest hair among the seven, and was probably the youngest as well.
At this moment, it was blinking its big bulging eyes. Its black pupils seemed a little timid when looking at her. She didn't know if it was her illusion.
“Squeak…”
It barked twice more and circled around itself twice, as if to confirm that she was not dangerous or malicious. Finally, it mustered up the courage and approached her little by little.
