The little mouse wrinkled its nose and said, "Sister, I think I smell something rotten."
In fact, it smelled the unpleasant smell just now, but it couldn't remember what the smell was for a moment.
Now it was clear that it smelled of decay!
The wild giant sheep came closer and said, "What's that rotten smell? I didn't see any rotten peaches just now. Are you smelling something wrong?"
The little mouse said confidently, "No, that's the smell of decay, and... it's not the smell of decaying plants."
The wild giant sheep was puzzled: "It's not a plant? What is it?"
Little Ear Mouse: "...It's an animal, it's the smell of an animal rotting after it dies."
The wild giant sheep was horrified: "How is this possible? I didn't smell anything! And even if it's the smell of a dead animal, why didn't I see any animal bones? Husky, did you see anything?"
Husky: "Didn't see it."
Wild Giant Sheep: "See? Even the husky didn't see it! Besides, if it's the smell of rotting animal, how could the husky, with its sensitive nose, not smell it? You must be smelling something wrong!"
The little-eared mouse looked at Luo Xinglan anxiously: "Sister, there's no mistake! That's the smell of rotting animals!"
Although it can no longer identify treasure by smell, its super sensitive sense of smell is not affected.
It's impossible to be mistaken.
Luo Xinglan didn't say anything, just looked behind him.
The huge peach tree still stands in the same place, lush and full of vitality. The branches and leaves sway gently in the wind, and the fresh and juicy peaches are very tempting.
Suddenly, a sparrow flew in from afar.
It seemed to be attracted by the fresh peaches, landed on the peach branch, and started pecking at the peaches one bite at a time.
Once it has eaten and drunk its fill, it will spread its wings and fly away.
The next moment, the peach tree quickly stretched out its willow branches and tightly wrapped the sparrow.
The sparrow struggled hard, making chirping sounds from its mouth.
The peach branches tightened their grip, and soon the sparrows lost their life.
The peach branch did not loosen its grip; instead, it tightened its grip even more, until it tore the sparrow's flesh and blood to shreds, which fell into the soil and disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.
And on the peach tree, the peaches seemed to become even redder.
Everyone who witnessed all this felt their scalps tingling instantly.
If it weren't for Leader Tuanzi, the Wild Giant Sheep and the Husky would probably have disappeared without a trace, turning into "nutrients" for the peach tree.
No wonder there are almost no animals in this peach forest. It turns out they were all "eaten" by this peach tree?
The little-eared mouse was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
The wild giant sheep and the husky even vomited it out.
Luo Xinglan looked at the wild giant sheep and the husky with concern.
This peach tree is so strange, I don’t know if there will be any problems with the fruits it bears.
Luo Xinglan: "Are either of you feeling uncomfortable?"
The wild giant sheep vomited and said, "I feel uncomfortable. My whole body feels uncomfortable. I feel so sick now! Ugh..."
The husky was also vomiting: "I feel so nauseous! I keep wanting to throw up!"
They seemed to be just disgusted and were otherwise unharmed, which put Luo Xinglan at ease.
She glared at the wild giant sheep and the husky: "You two shouldn't eat random things anymore."
The wild giant sheep said weakly: "I won't do that anymore, I won't do that anymore. I won't eat anything carelessly anymore."
The husky shook its head repeatedly: "Me too, I won't eat random things anymore!"
Luo Xinglan took out water from her backpack and helped the two rinse their mouths, then asked, "How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"
After receiving their affirmative response, she said, "Okay, let's get out of here quickly."
This peach tree is really strange; it's best not to linger here any longer, lest something unexpected happens.
After their recent lesson, the husky and the wild giant sheep were indeed much more well-behaved—or perhaps they were still disgusted by what had just happened. In any case, the two of them didn't cause any more trouble.
While searching for the "Gate of Life", Luo Xinglan was also paying close attention to the conditions of the wild giant sheep and the husky.
Fortunately, there were no problems with the Wild Sheep and the Husky.
In this way, Luo Xinglan and his group went deeper into the peach forest.
As they walked, the little eared mouse suddenly said, "Sister, I seem to smell that rotten smell again."
Luo Xinglan immediately called out, "Everyone be careful!"
The little ones immediately went on alert, looking around warily.
"Xiao Luo, look!" The wild giant sheep looked ahead in shock, "Another peach tree spirit has appeared!"
Luo Xinglan looked up and saw a huge peach tree standing not far ahead.
The wild giant sheep trembled: "W-why is there another one? What kind of place is this?"
Luo Xinglan stared at it for a while, and said in a heavy tone: "No, this is still the same peach tree."
Wild Giant Sheep: "How is this possible? We've been walking forward for half an hour. How could it be... could it be that the peach tree spirit has grown legs?"
Luo Xinglan pointed to the lines on the ground: "These are the lines I just drew."
There was a long line on the ground, which was the mark she had just made. Even the peach branch that she had casually broken off to draw the line was still there.
They were walking straight ahead after they went around the peach tree, so how did they end up coming back?
The wild giant sheep slumped down on the ground. "It's over, it's over. Is this peach tree spirit really going to eat Erha and me before it's done?"
Luo Xinglan pondered for a moment: "Let's try walking forward a little further."
