The burning bonfire made crackling sounds from time to time. It was not the first time that she spent the night in the wild. Mikoto was used to it. She added a few dry firewood to the fire. The bright flames dispelled the mist in the forest. She sat leaning against the roots of a big tree. The "Dark Wanderer's robe" she wore took off her hood and lost her disguise and revealed her original appearance.

The new rain in the mountains and forests stopped at night, and the air was very humid, but it also brought a pleasant freshness of the soil. From time to time, the sound of insects sounded good, but Mikoto gave up the idea of ​​sleeping in the open. After all, it was always bad to climb onto her body in the middle of the night. Instead of lying outside and being crawled by insects, it would be better to stay in the car overnight.

Although there is no road between the mountains and forests and you cannot drive a car, it is still good to sleep.

The bonfire is equipped with a complete set of barbecue tools. Since the cooking skills have been advanced, Mikoto has always paid great attention to this aspect. After all, food is an important indicator for enjoying life. Since there are conditions, Mikoto is certainly unwilling to treat herself badly. She picked some pine branches locally, and the unique fragrance of pine resin floated in the forest with the flames.

"It smells so fragrant! Unfortunately, it's not a dessert..." At this time, of course, her dessert elf was her partner's dessert elf. Of course, she trusted her partner's craftsmanship. The only thing that made it complain was that Mikoto seemed to be more interested in foreign (Chinese) dishes than desserts. Of course, it was really difficult to make desserts in the barren mountains, so Black Date did not say anything willful.

However, the exact situation is that although Mikoto was asked to practice more desserts, she also ate many barbecue black dates today. If she considers its size, the total amount of food she ate is indeed amazing. After wiping her greasy mouth, she yawned. She was carefree and fell into Mikoto's pocket to sleep as soon as possible.

It’s not too late now, so it doesn’t matter if you’re rushing for a while, but Mikoto doesn’t have such a plan. After all, as long as she is still in the territory of the demon clan, she will be full of dangers. It’s too dangerous to walk in the forest at night. This forest is already the periphery of the sphere of influence of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall. As long as you cross this mountain, you can leave the territory of the demon clan in one day tomorrow.

After several days of fierce battles, Mikoto was really mentally exhausted even with various potions, but even so she did not relax her vigilance. In fact, the situation in the past few days made Mikoto quite suspicious. Although there were many monsters that attacked her, Naraku, who was most wary of, did not appear again, as if the previous battle made him give up. But Mikoto knew that this was impossible, and Naraku was never less greedy for the Four Souls Jade than any monster.

Today should be my last night in the demon territory, and it must be Naraku's last chance, so Mikoto doesn't think she can spend this night easily.

Take out her 'mark 306' from the 'car factory', open the door and put down the driver's seat. Mikoto was about to go into the car and take a rest, but at this moment, a feeling of something was wrong in her heart. This was strange and Mikoto couldn't tell the reason for it for a while, but she still withdrew her plan to enter the car immediately.

Close the car door and step on the wet soil under my feet. It was already a late autumn night with a chill. A leaf fell in front of Mikoto's eyes, and then buried it in the soil, leaving only some fragrance similar to the unique fragrance of camphor in the air. I looked at the guardian talisman he arranged, but there was no reaction, but Mikoto's heart was always filled with a hint of uneasiness.

This uneasiness becomes stronger with the fragrance spreading in the forest-

Wait, the fragrance? There is a layer of fallen leaves on the ground, and it feels very comfortable to step on it like a carpet. Although there are always endless ringing of insects in your ears, in fact, Mikoto did not find any birds, beasts and insects in the range of sight. Yes! It is late autumn now, and the forest is so cold that the ringing of insects like summer should not have appeared!

Thinking of this, Mikoto became nervously alert and did not care about consuming the ability to turn on the electromagnetic waves. However, the feedback made her frown. It was not because she discovered any danger, but because the "radar" gave her nothing unusual. But Mikoto was not careless, because with her actions, the sound in the forest became strangely quiet, as if it had never appeared before, and the entire mountain forest fell into a dead silence, like a ghost.

The feeling of depression was that because the weather was not very good, the moon and stars in the sky were blocked by clouds, and only the burning bonfire lit up the surrounding area for more than ten meters. After thinking about it, Mikoto opened the car door again and did not sit in, but used the car key to turn on the car's motor switch and turned on the car's high beam.

The bright white light column dispelled the darkness, widened Mikoto's vision a lot, and slightly drove away the uneasiness in her heart.

People are creatures that yearn for light. Even if they have no practical meaning and even expose themselves, light can always give people a sense of security.

There seemed to be a black shadow in front of the light. Mikoto approached carefully. As the light gradually faded away from the light source of the car light dimmed again. However, after walking for dozens of meters, Mikoto also saw the shadow clearly. It was just a stone pier... No, after carefully distinguishing it, Mikoto found that it was artificially built, a well wall.

There is actually a well in this wilderness!

If there are people around, this is not surprising, but in fact, Mikoto can conclude that there are wilderness within at least a few dozen kilometers. Who would have digged a well in such a place for no reason?

Moreover, a well in the wilderness forced Mikoto to recall some stories, and these stories are all supernatural horror movies without exception. In Yin and Yang Studies, wells are originally objects that communicate yin and yang. Water belongs to Yin, and groundwater is even considered to connect to the underworld, so the well is a channel connecting Yin and Yang.

Mikoto stopped a few meters away from the well. She did not go forward to check immediately, but took out a bottle of "explosion potion" and threw it into the well. With a loud bang, "explosion potion" was originally a kind of attack potion unique to the "Dark" world. Compared with the "rotten gas potion" that continuously damages, its instantaneous lethality is extremely strong, not weaker than the grenades in the army.

After the loud noise, Mikoto waited for a moment, but nothing happened. She then walked forward carefully and looked into the well with great caution. The well was pitch black, but Mikoto could still see the situation inside with the witch's vision.

In fact, there is nothing inside, not even water. It is obviously a dry well that has been abandoned. It is just because it rains, and the bottom of the well is a little wet.

Empty? No, this is not right! Because Mikoto suddenly realized that the explosive agent she had just dropped just now did not leave any traces in the well after the loud noise! ​​Not only this well—

Mikoto suddenly pulled out a bright golden saber and slashed at a big tree beside her. Although it was a very thick tree, it was probably difficult for ordinary people to cut it easily with a chainsaw. However, under Mikoto's saber, the big tree suddenly became two pieces. The saber fell to the ground with a loud noise. Before she could finish it, Mikoto turned around and chopped towards other trees beside her. After a while, she had cleared a road in the woods. But when Mikoto turned around, her expression changed. The trees that had just been cut down had disappeared, and the trees in front of her were still intact.

Sure enough! I had been trapped in the illusion since when. This ancient well and even this forest were just illusions! Looking around, Mikoto could no longer find the lights of the car. The thing that should have been the most conspicuous in the darkness is now submerged in the darkness.

"Are you even confused the five senses?" Not only that, Mikoto used the "electromagnetic wave" skill just now and found no abnormality. However, after learning about this, Mikoto was not too panicked. She took out a bottle of potion from the bracelet and drank it. Sure enough, the scenery in front of her was distorted.

What Mikoto drank was an "antitoxic potion". After all, it could make people hallucinate. In many cases, it was also an psychedelic toxin. As long as it was a "toxic", the antidote potion could be dealt with. Of course, if it was an illusion formed by spells, it would need a more precious large-scale Fuling potion to relieve it.

When the scenery in front of me became clear again, Mikoto realized that the towering trees around her had long disappeared, leaving behind a bare hill. Some pale things could be seen everywhere on the exposed hills, which were actually some bones, mostly animals, and Mikoto could not tell whether any of them belonged to humans.

Then Mikoto discovered that there was a tree growing not far away. Only one big tree still existed on the bare hill, which was the one where Mikoto sat under it before resting.

From time to time, leaves fell from the trees, with a charming fragrance. Smelling the fragrance, the scenery in front of Miqin began to blur again.

"So this fragrance is a toxin!" After learning this, Mikoto didn't dare to hesitate, she raised her head and drank a bottle of antidote, then reached out and hit a fireball at the big tree.

Trees are always afraid of fire, and the fireball bursts on the trunks. Although it is quite wet because of rain, the flames formed by magic are of course not as good as ordinary fire. The extremely high temperature instantly ignites the trees.

The originally quiet tree suddenly opened its teeth and claws, and the branches twisted like thick pythons. However, after Mikoto's several fireballs were sequentially scattered, it quickly turned into a piece of coke.

The tree demons are not powerful monsters, they generally do not move at will. Obviously, they did not come for the Four Souls Jade, but by chance they crashed into the other party's territory. After checking carefully, they found that the other party had indeed turned into ashes, Mikoto was relieved. Not far away, her car was still on intact, and she had no intention of resting here.

Mikoto did not notice that there was an ancient well hidden in the darkness not far from the tree demon, which was the one she had discovered before. After the illusion disappeared, the ancient well still existed. Not long after Mikoto left, a woman's voice faintly floated out of the ancient well.

"It will be soon... I will get it for you... Sister..."
