As if in disbelief, or perhaps afraid that hope would turn into disappointment, he took a deep breath, slowly raised his trembling hand, and lifted the lid of the pot.
In the pot, the sticky green potion exudes a refreshing plant fragrance that makes you feel light all over.
"Yes, it can't be wrong." Mih's lips trembled, staring intently, "I have seen the Song of the Forest before, it is exactly the same!"
"Where is he?"
Domit opened his mouth blankly, and after a few seconds he realized that he was asking Zhang Mu, his face suddenly changed: "Damn it!
Mr. Zhang Mu has entered the Silent Forest alone!"
I was so shocked when I saw the potion just now that I forgot to ask Leah where Zhang Muren had gone.
Now that he was asked this question, he thought for a moment and guessed that Zhang Mu must have gone into the Silent Forest.
Mih grabbed the staff and disappeared instantly, leaving only his voice echoing in the courtyard: "Put the Song of the Forest in my room, take good care of it.
If anything goes wrong with the potion, I will smash your head with my staff like a watermelon."
……
Holding the crystal that Domit left for him, Zhang Mu walked to the edge of the magic circle, opened the door, and stepped over slowly.
The man walked out, closed the door, and looked around.
It was pitch dark in the forest at night. With the help of a faint moonlight that penetrated through the dense branches and leaves, Zhang Mu could barely make out that there were sturdy trees all around him.
This is not the place where I entered the magic circle yesterday.
Hmm... Zhang Mu touched his head. Which direction is the deepest part of the forest?
I came out too hastily. I should have asked Domit... Forget it, I'll just tell him. He will definitely not let me enter the forest.
I looked around, but it was too dark and I couldn't see anything.
After thinking for a while, he took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was past seven o'clock and the mall was still open.
He then summoned a portal back to Blue Star, took a taxi to the mall and bought three sets of night vision goggles, then rushed to the other world after returning home.
What he bought was a head-mounted night vision device, which at a glance looked like a half-covered helmet with a camera mounted on the top.
Put it on and turn on the power.
The surrounding scenery suddenly became clear and the field of vision appeared yellow-green.
Zhang Mu clapped his hands, looked around, and randomly chose a side to stride forward.
Although he didn't know whether the direction he chose was correct, he didn't care too much. At worst, he could just return the same way.
He took out the magic wand from the storage bag and pushed aside the bushes that were up to his waist, while keeping a close eye on the surroundings.
Although we are not afraid of death, we always die, which wastes a lot of time.
Fortunately, after walking for half an hour, apart from the sound of something running in the bushes and rubbing against the grass leaves, there was no sneak attack.
Another half an hour passed. Zhang Mu waved his staff to clear away the sparse bushes and looked up at the nearby trees.
The trunk is obviously thicker than before.
"Strange, the bushes are getting thinner and thinner, and the trees are getting thicker. Am I going out or in?"
"Whoosh-"
I heard a sound of breaking air behind me. I turned around instinctively, only to see a nimble figure passing by, and then everything went dark before my eyes.
After turning into a soul state, Zhang Mu was not in a hurry to revive. Instead, he looked at the monster that was gnawing at his corpse.
It looks a bit like a leopard, with large spots on its fur, and is about the size of a cattle.
You cerebral palsy thing, you’re so big, is this little meat of mine enough to eat?
Rolling his eyes, Zhang Mu waited until it had gnawed "him" until only the skeleton was left and it licked its tongue and walked away before he chose to revive.
I opened my eyes, stood up and took a picture of the night vision goggles, fortunately they were not broken.
He didn't hesitate, for fear that the leopard would come back, and walked forward quickly.
A leopard that had already climbed onto a branch, lay down with its eyes closed, and was about to sleep, suddenly opened its eyes in confusion.
Didn’t you just eat? Why are you hungry again?
Of course Zhang Mu didn't know all this. He just kept rushing forward until the trees were not so dense and he could see the dim sky through the gaps between the branches and leaves. Then he stopped.
Leaning against a tree trunk and panting, Zhang Mu cursed: "Fuck me, you want to eat me, right? You guys can just starve to death."
A night passed and the journey was not smooth.
After encountering the first monster, the calmness at the beginning of the journey was gone, and every ten minutes or half an hour, they would be attacked from behind by a dark shadow.
Roughly speaking, it was more than eighty times.
Zhang Mu felt a little uncomfortable as he watched himself being eaten.
After doing it many times, I got used to it.
There was no way out. Even the magician Mih didn't dare to go deep into the Silent Forest. He was a trainee magician in appearance, but actually a rookie junior magician. Being bitten more than eighty times was already a small number.
Fortunately, Zhang Mu had tested it before and found that when he used the resurrection function, all tissues of the corpse would disappear.
That is to say, after returning to their nests last night, the monsters and demons that they had feasted on had to either sleep hungry or go out hunting again.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
After catching his breath, Zhang Mu looked around and found that the environment had changed a lot.
The trees are much sparser and the bushes are almost non-existent. The ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves that have accumulated over the years and have rotted away, leaving a slight depression when stepped on.
"Roar--"
I was thinking about where to go next when suddenly a roar was heard not far away, scaring a flock of birds away.
Zhang Mu was a little surprised.
He didn't know whether there were any similarities between the violent bear and the bear on Blue Star, but the roar that hurt his eardrums was very similar to the sound of a bear.
Since he was already here, he put away his night vision goggles, quietly moved among the trees, and moved towards the source of the sound.
"boom--"
A tree so big that it took four people to hug it collapsed in front of them with a loud bang. The three-dimensional Zhang Mu, who happened to be in the falling path, was hit on the head and turned into a two-dimensional one.
After resurrection, Zhang Mu hid behind a tree on the right, poked out his eyes and observed the battlefield in front of him.
A gray bear, taller than a truck, stood up and was tearing at a giant python that was wrapped around its body.
Chapter 112 Remarks on the launch
As the title says, the editor suddenly told me to go and put it on the shelves.
It made me a bit at a loss.
After I calmed down, I thought I'd take this opportunity to chat with everyone.
First, the most important update.
Because I was in a hurry, I was not well prepared. I will update three times today and make up for it with two more tomorrow, which means ten thousand posts a day.
Thanks to the leisurely nature of my job, I basically maintained a daily income of 8000 yuan, at least yuan.
Then, let’s talk about the early plot.
Many people say that the plots of the two characters, Su Biqing and Mora, are old-fashioned.
When I was drawing up the outline, I didn't plan to write much about these two characters. I simply used them as introductions in the early stages.
So when I thought about the plot between the two of them, I just hit my head and thought, okay, let's do it.
Then I looked back and realized that I was a little overwhelmed. It really did feel a bit like what it was like ten years ago.
This is not an excuse. After chapter 30, you basically can't see their stories anymore because I didn't arrange any of them.
Then, it’s a matter of advancing the plot.
This is what I thought when I started writing the book: with two worlds going hand in hand, there would be a lot to write about!
However, there are gains and losses. The large expansiveness of the content has caused the plot to inevitably slow down.
The gains from the two main worlds must be related.
Some people always comment and ask me to hurry up, but the necessary things cannot be left behind.
For example, for the Hogwarts plot, I originally planned to start at around 30 words.
But I found that many people said they wanted to watch it, so I made some adjustments, but the effect was not very good.
I think you have also noticed that the plot about going abroad is very abrupt.
It's like a drop of black ink falling on a piece of white paper, it hurts your eyes no matter how you look at it.
In my original plan, the Abnormal Investigation Bureau was to introduce the Foreign Abnormal Investigation Bureau, and then unfold the story of the Magic Academy.
Next, let’s talk about everyone’s comments.
I occasionally read the comments in the background, and my deepest feeling is that it is very difficult for humans to understand each other.
Some people say a plot is good, while others say it is bad.
Everyone's differences in values and personality lead to completely different views on the same behavior.
I can only try to balance this.
Then, some people say that a certain behavior is unreasonable, and this kind of argument is the most common.
In this regard, whether an action is reasonable or not is not determined by the action itself, but by the person who performs the action.
If I write about Zhang Mu repaying evil with kindness, you will definitely criticize me to death.
It is reasonable for a pervert to kill someone, but it is unreasonable for a wealthy and free person who lives a leisurely, carefree life and does not make enemies with anyone to kill someone.
Regarding this point, I personally think that there is no problem as long as the character setting is not ruined.
Later, someone criticized my writing style for being rubbish.
I won’t argue back on this, but some readers said that I can’t distinguish between “的”, “得” and “地”.
I...I really didn't know that de (地) is followed by a verb?
