The first time he entered the black forest, Yu Sheng was not busy walking around. Instead, he stood cautiously and took a few seconds to carefully sense the surrounding... "aura".
The "wolf" has not yet appeared, and the forest is very calm. Occasionally, there is the slight sound of wind blowing leaves or birds and animals in the distance. There is still some glow in the sky, dusk has not yet ended, and there is no malicious condensed in the shadows in the forest.
It seems that the Black Forest has not reacted to the sudden appearance of an "intruder" like himself.
But what about the child who has been trapped deep in the forest? The girl named "Xiaoxiao", what is the environment around her like now? The black forest will show different stages to each "Little Red Riding Hood" who enters this place?
Or is it itself "partitioned"?
Many questions flashed through Yu Sheng's mind for a moment, and then he heard light footsteps coming from beside him, and a red figure came into view, which was a girl wearing a dark red coat.
Several dark wolves emerged from the surrounding shadows, constantly patrolling and sniffing around the girl in red. Perhaps affected by the black forest, these shadow wolves seemed more restless than in the real world, and even the edges of their figures were blurred.
It was shaking rapidly and looked very unstable.
Even Little Red Riding Hood's own body seemed to be surrounded by a layer of shadow. Her dark red coat looked vaguely in the shadow, as if there was another body, or another "posture" superimposed on it.
On her.
Yu Sheng couldn't help but stare at her a few more times: "...I can tell from just one glance that you're not in a good state."
Then he saw the girl's body tremble for a moment, and she turned her head and looked here as if she had seen a ghost.
Yu Sheng was startled by the other party's reaction: "Well, I opened my mouth a bit suddenly, but you are not like this..."
"Ah, I'm sorry," Little Red Riding Hood reacted slowly and turned away awkwardly, "I usually don't hear any 'human' sounds except squirrels in the dark forest, so I forgot that you came in too."
Already."
Yu Sheng: "...Okay, reasonable."
"By the way, have you really come in?!" Little Red Riding Hood couldn't help but look up and down at the "adult" in front of her. Although she reacted at this time, there was even more disbelief in her eyes, and then she continued
He added, "This is the first time I see someone other than myself here."
"Of course, I'm not lying to you," Yu Sheng was not too surprised by the girl's reaction. He just waved his hand and called Irene's name from the bottom of his heart, "Irene, we successfully 'came in' -
—How is the situation over there? Can you follow me in?"
"It's best for me to stay 'outside' and guard," Irene's voice quickly sounded in Yu Sheng's heart this time. It seemed that after the last experience, she was already familiar with the strange "Black Forest".
The communication path of the "mental cage", "I have to observe the status of the three of you in the real world at the same time, and I have to communicate the situation to other people staying outside - last time I went directly to find you, it was a special situation. This
We'd better play it safe this time."
"Okay, you can make Huli feel more at ease if you stay outside," Yu Sheng nodded, but then he remembered something again, "By the way, speaking of Huli...can you send her in too?
"
"...What do you want to do?"
"Cyber ​​fox fairies sweep across children's literature and so on..."
"I knew it!" Eileen's tone sounded like she had expected it, but soon she sighed, "Don't think about it. I tried it once when I went to the Black Forest to find you last time.
Don't go in - that place is very special, and entering requires special 'adaptation', either like you and Little Red Riding Hood, you have already established a connection with the Black Forest, or like me, you have the ability to travel through dreams -
And I also need you to perform the supporting 'summoning ritual' inside, so others can't enter."
Speaking of this, she paused and then added: "Do you think, if the silly fox could really go in with me, you would have been eaten by the wolf last time? She would definitely rush in and face the entire black forest as soon as possible.
Saturation bombed.”
Erin's answer was not unexpected.
After initially understanding some of the rules of the Black Forest and "Fairy Tales", he guessed the result - this thing has a strong screening mechanism, and this "screening" is even the underlying law of the entire "Fairy Tale" exotic land.
one.
He and Irene were able to enter this forest without being "Little Red Riding Hood" solely by exploiting bugs or working miracles.
only……
Yu Sheng temporarily suspended the communication with Irene, and at the same time stretched out his hand in the air thoughtfully.
An illusory door slowly took shape in front of him. The door opened a crack, but the opposite side of the crack was not any exact "place", but an invisible darkness.
Since the method of exploiting bugs or working hard to create miracles can also work in this black forest, it means that the "screening mechanism" of "fairy tales" is actually not so impeccable. In addition, you can indeed open the "door" in the black forest.
That means... there is still a way to forcibly establish a passage between the Black Forest and the real world without ignoring the "screening mechanism".
Little Red Riding Hood looked at Yu Sheng's actions in confusion. He fell into a sluggish state for a while, was thoughtful for a while, and then opened the door to try. Finally, he couldn't help but broke the silence out of curiosity: "What are you doing?"
"Make some preparations to combat poisonous weed children's literature in the future," Yu Sheng said casually, waving his hand to dismiss the illusory door, "But this still requires some complicated preparations, so let's not do it for now - get down to business first.
, find the child named 'Xiaoxiao'."
As he spoke, he looked around and frowned slightly: "It's a completely unknown road - where do you think the child might be now? Based on the experience of a 'veteran'."
"'Veterans' don't have this kind of experience," Little Red Riding Hood shook her head. "This is the first time that two Little Red Riding Hoods may have entered the Black Forest at the same time, and one of the Little Red Riding Hoods is accompanied by a 'friend' - you should know the story
How it says, 'She walked alone on the path'."
"Alone...that squirrel has been emphasizing this sentence," Yu Sheng murmured thoughtfully, looking at the surrounding bushes, "Speaking of squirrels, where did that squirrel go?"
"I'm looking for it too," Little Red Riding Hood also looked around. Even the wolves around her were looking around. "Under normal circumstances, it will appear soon."
"Could it be at Xiaoxiao's side?" Yu Sheng thought for a while and said, "She came in before us. Theoretically, the squirrel will contact her first and should still be 'leading' her now."
Little Red Riding Hood frowned slightly and nodded slightly, as if she thought what Yu Sheng said was reasonable. But just when she opened her mouth and was about to say something, a rustling sound came from the bushes.
interrupted her movements.
The next second, a small furry figure appeared in the field of vision of Yu Sheng and Little Red Riding Hood.
The squirrel climbed up the bush and stared blankly at the two figures in front of him, as if it had stopped the moment it appeared.
Two seconds later, it made a sharp "gah" sound, fell off the twig, and fell into a pile of rotten leaves.
Yu Sheng was shocked on the spot: "I'll go! Will you die if you show up?!"
As a result, the squirrel suddenly jumped up from the pile of leaves and screamed: "The squirrel is crazy! The squirrel is crazy! It saw impossible things! When did the black forest become so lively - one, two,
There are three more! Little Red Riding Hood and friends! Come together! You scared the squirrel, you scared the squirrel!"
The small rodent screamed and scurried around the bushes as fast as lightning. It screamed chaotically and nervously for two minutes before suddenly stopping, and then rushed straight in front of Yu Sheng.
After staring at it for two seconds, he rushed to Little Red Riding Hood's feet and raised his head: "Ah——"
Little Red Riding Hood kicked him over: "Calm down!"
The squirrel screamed and disappeared into the bushes on the opposite side.
Yu Sheng was dumbfounded. He was a little dazed when the squirrel screamed. Now he was even more stunned when he saw Little Red Riding Hood's kick. He turned to look at the girl in red next to him: "Are you doing this?
A little rough?"
"This is the most effective - it will become hysterical when stimulated, and it is usually very nervous. If you don't give it a big stimulus, it may be troubled for a long time."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a few rustlings in the bushes opposite. The squirrel came out of it, seemingly unharmed, and holding a thin stick that had just been lit in its paws. It leaned against it.
On a small stone, he held the thin stick in his mouth, sucked in a third of it with a "hiss, squeak, squeak" sound, and said: "It's so exciting..."
Little Red Riding Hood glanced at Yu Sheng: "Look, I said this is effective."
Yu Sheng: "..."
No matter whether JK in red's operation was a bit rough, the squirrel did calm down anyway, and after smoking the "Squirrel's Special Ultra-Slim Cigarette", it quickly accepted "Little Red Riding Hood appeared with friends in the Black Forest"
"Here" the current situation, and began to communicate with Yu Sheng normally.
"Let's find someone," Yu Sheng explained the situation, "a child who came in before us, about six years old, about this tall..."
"She may be 'next,'" Little Red Riding Hood said directly, "but she is most likely lost in the forest - we need your help."
The squirrel listened with its small black eyes wide open, threw the cigarette that had been burned in its paws except for the tail into its mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, and then sighed after a long while: "Then you may be a little late.
Chapter completed!
