Forty-four dead forest

The Earth Bear was like a puppy, sniffing around in the air, then turned his head and looked at Chu Yu and Nuo Nuo seriously.

"How is it? Have you noticed anything?" Chu Yu couldn't help but hug Nuonuo. The forest looked a little gloomy. Perhaps because the trees were too thick, the sun's luster could not penetrate the thick branches and leaves, so Chu Yu felt a little cold.

"The situation is not optimistic. Human boy, this forest has been defiled." The earth bear Songtai nodded seriously, and then said with a look at Nuonuo.

"Why didn't I see anything? It was just a little cold." Chu Yu muttered, feeling that he was completely incompetent in this druid.

"Actually, you have a very simple way to judge whether there is any abnormality in this forest." After a while of silence, the Earth Bear said slowly.

"What method? Do you communicate with the tree?" Chu Yu asked.

"No, with your current ability, you can't communicate with trees, but you can feel the emotions of nature." said the Earth Bear: "You have a natural heart, boy, this is a very rare ability, even among druids."

"You mean?" Chu Yu was a little confused.

"Feel nature with your heart, and then you will find the emotions of this forest for you."

"Take your heart?" Chu Yu asked suspiciously, and closed his eyes without comment, trying to use the method taught by Songtai to feel the emotions of nature.

Not long after, Chu Yu opened his eyes again.

"I didn't feel anything, Songtai, didn't it take long enough?" he asked slowly, and began to doubt the method that the Earth Bear taught him.

"No, you can't feel nothing." Earth Bear shook his head, "You must have felt something, but you just don't think you feel it."

"But I really didn't feel anything." Chu Yu said with a frown.

"If you don't know how to describe it, you can try to recall your feelings just now and express them." said the Earth Bear.

"No, Songtai, I really didn't feel anything!" Chu Yu said affirmatively.

"Are you sure there is nothing?" The Earth Bear suddenly stared at Chu Yu and asked, "It's just a blank, as if he is facing nothingness?"

Chu Yu was stunned for a while after being asked, then said, "No, it's not that feeling, but a cold feeling without any emotion."

"By the way! That's right!" The Earth Bear suddenly patted Chu Yu's shoulder with his claws and said loudly, although Chu Yu could not feel the slap of the Earth Bear.

"It's also a cold feeling. Boy, do you know what this means?" said the Earth Bear with some excitement.

"It means that this forest actually does not welcome us?" Chu Yu guessed.

"No, this means that this forest is dead." Earth Bear replied.

"Diet?!" Chu Yu was a little surprised, and looked around at the same time. The vigorous trees leaned against each other and grew higher. The tender green branches were swaying constantly, looking vibrant.

"I know what you are thinking, but this forest is really dead." The Earth Bear rarely continued to pull it off with Chu Yu, repeating this point of view.

"Then why?" Chu Yu pointed to the trees around him and asked in confusion.

"I don't know either." The Earth Bear lowered his head in frustration, "If the master is there, you will definitely be able to see what is going on here."

"What are you doing while standing there? Let's go to the Sage Canyon quickly." Chu Yu reminded that he no longer wanted to stay in this forest.

"Did you feel disgusted?" asked the Earth Bear.

"That's right." Chu Yu nodded. "Why is this?"

"Actually, I also feel this way. From this point of view, the reason why this forest died was probably because it was considered blasphemy," said the Earth Bear with affirmation.

"In short, you can understand that this forest has fallen, or has been demonized, and it is a negative magic, so it has become what it is now."

"And what I am most worried about is not actually this. From the moment, it seems that this forest has fallen for quite a while, at least for decades. Why are the elves in the Elf King Court not aware of it at all?"

"Because they have no druids anymore." Chu Yu suddenly replied.

"Yes! That's right! They no longer have druids. How could ordinary elf archers discover the abnormality of this forest? After all, the trees here grow so well."

The Earth Bear began to murmur, as if he was in a state of entanglement.

"Mr. Songtai, have you discovered something?" Chu Yu couldn't help but interrupt the earth bear's contemplation because he wanted to leave.

“Not.”

Songtai sighed, looked around the surrounding trees with dark eyes, and then floated forward first.

"Now we have no time to find the abnormalities here. We must first find my master. If he is there, we should be able to see what this forest has experienced." The voice of the Earth Bear came over, reminding Chu Yu and Nuo Nuo to keep up in time.

"Mr. Songtai, go along this road."

Not long after, they found a path paved with bluestone in the forest, which surprised them very much.

However, Nuonuo pointed at the path firmly. She said that she remembered that her grandmother had brought her here, and she was walking on such a path.

But the Bear of Earth made different opinions, because according to his statement, the path in front of him was not the one that Nuonuo had seen, but was paved by someone later.

"Why did you come to such a conclusion? Mr. Songtai."

Chu Yu asked, and in his opinion, he didn't see anything unusual about this stone road.

"A human boy, becoming a druid requires great patience and observation. You are still far from this."

Songtai clasped his claws and said softly: "Look at these stone slabs carefully, are there any special discoveries?"

When Chu Yu heard the Earth Bear say this, he immediately squatted down, gently scraped the bluestone slab with his fingers, and then observed carefully, but he found nothing.

But he thought that the Earth Bear would not be aimless. Although he usually looked very unreliable, he never lost the chain at a critical moment.

So he looked at the side of the stone slab again, which was covered with moss and blended with the surrounding green, making it difficult to find.

So he was a little confused, "Mr. Songtai, is there any problem? Doesn't the existence of these mosses mean that this stone road has existed for quite a long time?"

"No, it is the existence of these mosses that illustrate the problem." The Earth Bear said slowly: "Do you still remember the way you came?"

"Of course I remember." Chu Yu nodded.

"How did you feel at that time?"

“It’s very cold.”

"Yes, it's very cold. Because the sun cannot shine on the ground, the ground cannot store heat. But equally, since the sun cannot shine on the ground, the ground is full of dead branches and leaves, and even grass cannot survive. But look here, look at the stone slab, and there are green grass growing beside the moss. Why is this happening?" The Bear of the Earth looked up at the branches that looked like a green dome, and said with a serious expression.

"So, this entire stone road was actually transplanted by people? In order to make the stone road look more realistic, they even planted moss and these grasses?" Chu Yu couldn't help but ask, this is really a big project.

"No, I guess it was someone who paved these stone roads in another place and placed them for a long time, and then moved the ground here not long ago." The Earth Bear judged.

"Who is going to do this? Do they know that we will come here today, or in the near future?" Chu Yu asked.

"Of course some people do this on purpose, but we don't know who it is.

Elf little princess, you have to follow your feelings and don’t be fooled by these stone roads. Believe me, you can feel the breath of the Sage Canyon, and you will definitely take us there." The Earth Bear did not continue to linger on this issue, but instead urged Nono to lead the way.

"Nuo Nuo, I believe in you too." Chu Yu hugged Nuo Nuo firmly in his arms and said affirmatively.

But in fact, his heart was not as relaxed as it seemed on the surface, because he thought of a possibility that everything here would be caused by the elves themselves.

Once this idea arises, it will burn quickly like wildfire, occupying all the minds of Chu Yu.

So the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, because he never forgot that there were elves inside the elves who did not want Nuonuo to successfully return to the elves court, and even sent people to encircle and block, that is, to intercept the people in the camp.

Although Chu Yu had never seen them, he always believed that they were waiting for him somewhere, just like a pack of wolves, waiting for the prey to be exhausted and then sending a fatal blow.

Next, Nuonuo pointed to the same road and continued to walk along the stone road, so that Chu Yu was a little suspicious of whether his previous speculation was wrong.

However, the Bear of Earth always insisted on his own view and asked Chu Yu not to walk on the stone road, but to be at a certain distance from the stone road, and then to keep a parallel route and set out forward.
