Zhang Fan thought for a while, then nodded.

"Let's evacuate first!"

All the people cautiously returned the same way.

"Luo Kai, how is your hand?"

Zhang Fan asked first.

After all, Luo Kai is also a person who has experienced life and death.Such a little pain is not enough for him to die!

"Doctor Chen has bandaged me up, and now the pain is basically gone!"

Luo Kai giggled silly, and then talked again.

"But it's really dangerous! Fortunately, we didn't choose to go high in the air and step on the branches, otherwise we might all be injured!"

"This can be regarded as our luck!"

Qiao Ran also said with a sigh.

Everyone looked at Zhang Fan, waiting for Zhang Fan to arrange the next move.

"Qiao Ran, you said that the trees here are strange, did you find something?"

Qiao Ran frowned, thinking carefully.

"This forest is indeed very different from the previous forests in my impression. The trees in the past were not as tall and lush. Judging from the growth speed of the trees, it is impossible for the trees to grow so fast in a short period of time!"

"Not only is the size of the tree wrong, but also the type of tree is wrong. In the past, I remembered that poplar trees were planted here, but now, the branches and leaves of this tree don't look like poplar trees at all!"

When Qiao Ran said this, Chen Ming couldn't help but say it too.

"That's right, this tree is indeed not a poplar, not only is it not a poplar, you can't even tell what kind of tree it is."

Su Jili asked tentatively.

"I can't tell what kind it is. Could it be because we don't know the types of trees?"

Chen Ming smiled.

"I don't think so. One of my few hobbies is to study various plants, and I have a certain understanding of different tree species!"

"And the trees we just encountered are indeed very strange. Some of the leaves and trunks look like poplars, and some look like birches, but they smell like pines and cypresses."

"On a tree, there are often several tree qualities, which is really abnormal!"

Zhang Fan turned his head to look at the dense forest just now.

"Perhaps, this forest is the reason why there are no zombies here!"

Chen Ming also agreed.

"Indeed, it's not impossible... But what's going on, we can't figure it out now!"

Zhang Fan suddenly thought of the Devil's Forest to the east of Long'an City!

People who walk into that forest...all will disappear inexplicably!
Perhaps, that is not what disappears at all...

But those who walked into the woods and approached the tree trunk were all swallowed up by the tree trunk!
"Su Jili, try to shoot an arrow at the tree trunk and see what will happen?"

Zhang Fan ordered.

"Yes! Lord Barbarian King!"

Su Jili quickly set up a bow and arrow, aimed at one of the tree trunks, and shot the arrow out.

The arrow feather flew straight towards the tree trunk with a piercing fierceness!
With a sound of "Hoo!", the moment the arrow feather touched the trunk, it was bounced off by the trunk again!
Looking at the arrow that fell on the ground, Zhang Fan and his party fell into confusion!
"I'll go take a look!"

As Zhang Fan said, he took out the small knife he carried with him, held it in his hand, and approached the woods step by step!

Su Jili and Yu Zhixin bowed their bows on the spot, keeping an eye on Zhang Fan's developments!
The rest of the people did not stay where they were, but followed Zhang Fan's footsteps and approached the woods step by step.

Zhang Fan didn't say much, but just reminded him in a low voice.

"Everyone be careful!"

Zhang Fan came to the place where the arrow feathers fell in a few steps, and Zhang Fan carefully picked up the arrow feathers on the ground.

The arrow feathers were intact, but after Zhang Fan looked carefully, he still found some substances attached to the arrowhead.

Zhang Fan handed the arrow to Chen Ming, and Chen Ming carefully observed the arrow part, and then looked at the tree trunk that the arrow feather hit just now.

The same sap as the arrowhead also remained on the trunk, and it was seeping into the trunk at a certain speed.

"what is this?"

Luo Kai raised his disabled hand and asked.

Chen Ming shook his head.

"still unsure as of now!"

As soon as Chen Ming said, Luo Kai's finger touched the arrow!

"Hiss—!"

The moment Luo Kai's finger touched it, it immediately bounced off!
"what are you doing?!!"

Chen Ming asked angrily.

Luo Kai grinned and shook his hands.

"Fuck! It hurts so fucking badly!"

"Who told you to touch it!"

Zhang Fan rolled his eyes angrily.

Chen Ming handed the arrow feathers to Zhao Qiang, told Zhao Qiang not to touch them randomly, and then raised Luo Kai's hand.

The part where Luo Kai's finger touches the arrow has obviously been corroded, and it is festering and bleeding at the moment.

"He was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. You yourself were injured just now, but now you are doing well. You are completely unconscious and injured again!"

While talking, Chen Ming took out disinfectant water to disinfect Luo Kai's injured finger.

At the same time, he turned his head and said to Zhang Fan.

"However, Lord Barbarian, Luo Kai just touched the arrow, and I can confirm that the substance secreted by the arrow should be the same substance that burned Luo Kai's palm just now!"

Fingers connected to heart, Luo Kai grinned and let Chen Ming hastily bandage his fingers.

After listening to Chen Ming's analysis, Zhang Fan took the arrow and looked at it again.

Although the arrowhead is covered with secretions from the tree trunk, it is still intact!
Zhang Fan poked the arrow part with a knife, and when the knife hit the arrow, there was still the sound of metal colliding.

Not only does the arrow look intact, it's actually not damaged at all!
Zhang Fan wiped the arrowhead on the dirt on the ground again, and wiped off the secretions on it.

Then, put the arrow directly on Luo Kai's bare arm!

"Master Barbarian King!" Luo Kai screamed and pulled his arm out.

"Look, is there anything wrong?"

Zhang Fan said coldly.

Luo Kai withdrew his arm, and suddenly found that the severe pain he thought was not coming from his arm. Luo Kai raised his arm and looked left and right.

Except for the slight cool touch left just now, there is really no pain!

"Huh?" Luo Kai grinned.

"It seems... not injured..."

Zhang Fan couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"Nonsense! How could I get hurt if I wiped that thing off!"

"However, now at least it proves that as long as this viscous liquid is cleaned up, it won't hurt again!"

Luo Kai blinked and asked hesitantly.

"Master Barbarian...you just...couldn't...use me...for an experiment, right?"

Zhang Fan didn't shy away from it, and nodded directly.

"That's right! That's right, I'm using you as an experiment! Now I've figured out what the real danger is!"

Luo Kai twitched the corner of his mouth.

"My lord, I've already been hit twice, why do you still have the heart to take me out!"

Zhang Fan didn't turn his head back.

"Using you as an experiment is to show your value, you boy thank me, why are you still there!"

After Zhang Fan finished speaking, he picked up the small knife again, walked towards the tree trunk, and stabbed it fiercely into the tree trunk.

But the moment the knife hit the tree trunk, Zhang Fan felt as if he had been stuck in a ball of cotton, and his hands lost strength.

Visible to the naked eye, a secretion exuding a faint fragrance exudes from the trunk, wrapping the blade of the knife inside.

Immediately after the next second, a hedging force bounced back, and the knife in Zhang Fan's hand lost its force and fell to the ground!

And the secretion on the tree trunk seeped back little by little until it disappeared!
Chen Ming and the others were stunned!

Zhang Fan picked up the knife that fell on the ground.

"Master Barbarian, whether it is the arrow shot by Su Jili or your dagger, they all exerted a strong force on the trunk just now. Maybe you should try peeling the bark?"

Chen Ming suggested.

Zhang Fan really planned to try another method, so as Chen Ming said, he turned the blade sideways and carefully slashed towards the tree trunk.

The result was the same as before.

The trunk became like soft steel, Zhang Fan couldn't even make a small cut!
"The weirdness of this tree is indeed huge!"

Zhang Fan and the others tried various methods beside the tree trunk.

Even, the trunk was not damaged at all!
However, there is another discovery by everyone, that these trees don't seem to attack them actively!

The secretions on the trunk, more, like a self-protection mechanism!

After there were no other results, Qiao Ran looked at the woods and asked again.

"My lord, do you still want to continue walking to the lake in the forest?"

Zhang Fan lowered his head and pondered.

In fact, he didn't know what was in the center of the lake.But somewhere, he had a feeling, that feeling told him to go to the center of the lake!

There, there may be something waiting for you!

"go with!"

Zhang Fan said firmly.

"These trunks will not actively attack us. When we pass through this forest, be careful and don't touch the trunks!"

However, Qiao Ran looked at the luxuriant forest and always had a bad premonition in his heart!

A tree has more than a trunk!

It also has branches, leaves, and rhizomes!

The trunk will not actively attack people, isn't it because it is immovable?
But the branches and leaves on the top of the head and the rhizomes on the bottom of the feet will grow and extend!

It is not sure whether these are dangerous for them!

Qiao Ran hesitated for a while, but still spoke out her thoughts.

Zhang Fan also lowered his head and began to meditate.

What Qiao Ran said was indeed not unreasonable!
If it is said that trees can attack people, it is indeed more reasonable to use branches, leaves and roots.

After all, this is how it is written in many movies and novels!
And such a tree monster also has a familiar name.

Treants!

Zhang Fan looked at the branches and leaves above his head, and then at the ground.

Generally, where there are forests, there will be more or less fallen leaves on the ground.

But on this road, there is not even a single fallen leaf!

Zhang Fan turned his head and shouted to Su Jili and Yu Xinzhi.

"You two, try shooting some foliage down!"

After speaking, he asked the people around him to walk away.

After Zhang Fan and the others walked away, Su Jili and Yu Xinzhi went to work and shot arrows towards the branches and leaves on the top of the tree.

This time, unlike shooting the tree trunk just now, the arrow was bounced away!

Branches and leaves fell to the ground under the sharp arrow.

Zhang Fan and the others waited for a while, and saw that the arrow feathers also fell to the ground, and then walked towards the fallen branches and leaves.

"Master Barbarian King, be careful."

Chen Ming reminded.

Zhang Fan nodded and scratched the branches and leaves with the knife.

"Did you see anything unusual?"

Zhang Fan asked.

Chen Ming also squatted on the ground to study the fallen leaves carefully.

These branches and leaves, except for some milky white secretions that are completely different from the secretions just now, are not abnormal. They look like branches and leaves that have fallen from ordinary trees!
Chen Ming frowned and shook his head.

"I haven't seen anything yet..."

Luo Kai also pouted on the ground.

"Lord Barbarian King, do you think these branches and leaves are dangerous!"

Zhang Fan raised one corner of his lips.

"You'll know if you try it?"

Rocky grinned.

"Huh? Want me to come again?"

Zhang Fan laughed again.

"Anyway, you are injured now. Even if the branches and leaves are dangerous, they should not be fatal. Moreover, we have professional medical staff by our side!"

Luo Kai pouted.

"Lord Barbarian King, why do I feel that something is wrong! Are you PUAing me!"

Zhang Fan was still smiling.

"Don't talk so much, just say dare you, is it because you are afraid of pain and dare not try? If you are afraid of pain and dare not try, just say it, Qiangzi! Qiangzi is a real man, not afraid of bleeding or pain!"

As he spoke, he cast a look at Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang pursed his lips and nodded, and said very cooperatively.

"Luo Kai can't do it, I'll come!"

Talking and gesturing to grab the branches and leaves.

Luo Kai stopped Zhao Qiang.

"Why not! Who said I can't do it! You get out of the way! I'll come! Let you see what kind of iron-blooded and tough guy the captain of Team Pozhu is!"

As he spoke, he swallowed, stretched out the injured finger on the injured hand, and stretched it tremblingly towards the branches and leaves.

When I closed my eyes, my heart froze, and I poked my finger up!

After a while, the expected pain did not seem to hit.

Luo Kai breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Zhang Fan.

"My lord, this blade is fine!"

Zhang Fan nodded.

Chen Ming said again at this time.

"I was injured before because of something like a secretion on the trunk. The surface of the leaf is not hindered, and no secretion leaks out when touched. But there is indeed a milky white secretion at the break of the branch and leaf. Perhaps, it is dangerous. it is this!"

After Chen Ming finished speaking, everyone looked at Luo Kai expectantly.

Luo Kai laughed a few times.

"I think this is a bit unnecessary! At least it is not dangerous to touch the branches and leaves, we just need to know this. There is secretion at the break, and we should not specifically touch this potential It's dangerous!"

Chen Ming blinked.

"What? Is the captain of Team Pozhu afraid? I heard that it was Luo Kai and Zhao Qiang competing for the position of captain, and Zhao Qiang only lost one game..."

Luo Kai frowned impatiently.

"Oh! It's okay! Got it! Don't use this crappy aggressive method anymore! I'll try! Can't I try it!"

Everyone else laughed.

While talking dissatisfiedly, Luo Kai lightly touched the broken part of the branches and leaves with his fingers.

This time, I still didn't feel anything.

Neither pain nor numbness.

Luo Kai lifted up his juice-stained fingers, and showed off to everyone with a triumphant smile!
"Look! I said there is no problem! I really don't feel anything at all..."

Just as Luo Kai was speaking, he lost consciousness and fell down!
