I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 1114 Lin Zhongshi

After determining the route to go, the two men set off without stopping.

They finally chose to walk in the direction where the stone pillars were sparse, because that way the journey would be smoother.

The gaps between the stone pillars will gradually become larger, the ground will slowly become less rugged, and there will be no need to constantly adjust the direction due to the obstruction of the stone pillars. These are all foreseeable advantages.

But not long after walking, Mo Ling suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Lu asked puzzledly.

"There's something in front..." Mo Ling pointed to a stone pillar in front and said, "There's something behind this."

"what?"

"It looks like a scorpion, a stone scorpion. We can see it if we go around it."

The two started walking again, quickening their pace, and soon arrived behind the stone pillar.

Only then did Lu Qi see that on top of the stone pillar, there was a stone that looked very much like a scorpion. It was about the size of a human head and was easily noticed because of its peculiar shape.

But it is quite normal to have such strange rocks in this stone forest full of rocks. Apart from their very special appearance, there is nothing wrong with these stones.

"Let's go, it's just a stone." Lu Qi urged Mo Ling who was standing beside him.

"Don't be impatient... Don't you see it? It's moving!"

"Moving?" Lu Luqi quickly turned his gaze to the scorpion stone again, but could not see anything.

"Yes! It's moving, but very slowly. It may be 100 times slower than a normal scorpion. No, it may be 1000 times slower!"

"I can't see it."

Lu Qi understood it immediately, and perhaps only Mo Ling could see it.

His vision was sharp enough to detect this subtle movement, which was imperceptible to the normal naked eye.

"Are you sure you can see it clearly? It's really moving?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure."

"So it is a creature that looks like stone?" Lu Qi continued to ask.

"No, it's just stone. It's stone on the outside and stone on the inside, but it moves, but very slowly. I didn't notice it before, and it looked so strange that I had to watch it for a while before I noticed it."

"A moving stone..." Lu Qi said silently, "It should be some special creature in this stone forest. It's best to stay away from it."

He urged Mo Ling again: "Hurry up, if it's not a harmful creature, just ignore it for now."

"Okay." After observing for a while, Mo Ling withdrew his vision.

After this little episode, both of them moved noticeably faster.

This stone forest is not as simple as it looks. It may be hiding other secrets and even dangers. You should leave as quickly as possible to avoid any more trouble.

As he continued to move forward, Morin discovered other "moving stones".

They all look completely different. Some are like the scorpions mentioned above, and others are like centipedes, beetles, ants, etc. They are of different sizes and specific shapes, but the common point is that they all move at a slow speed.

Mo Ling also found some stones that looked like "lizards" and were also moving slowly.

"They all seem to be desert creatures..."

These stones all happened to grow into the appearance of desert creatures and moved in their own ways, which made Mo Ling feel a little uneasy.

"Could they be normal creatures that have been petrified and turned into this? This stone forest will petrify all creatures that enter it, slowly turning them into stone, and finally forming stacked stone pillars..." It's no wonder that Mo Ling would have such wild thoughts, because these stones were too lifelike, the bristles on the insect limbs, the forked antennae, the scales on the lizards...all looked real, and this was extremely obvious under Mo Ling's "high-resolution" vision. He seemed to be able to see how these creatures were alive and kicking before they were "petrified".

At present, these "vibrant" creatures have all turned into stones, but they are still moving in the same postures as before, as if they are unaware that they have long turned into lifeless stones...

The more Mo Ling looked, the more his thoughts began to wander. He even focused his attention on these stones and almost pointed in the wrong direction a few times.

Router Qi also noticed Mo Ling's uneasiness.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked with concern.

“I feel like those stones are alive.”

"You mean, they are transformed from normal creatures?"

"Well, because they are so lifelike. Every detail is exactly the same as real creatures. They don't look like they were 'carved' out of stone. They look like living creatures..."

Mo Ling expressed all the worries in his heart.

Because of the hot air, his nasal cavity felt burning and his mouth felt very dry, which gave him a feeling of being "drained". Thinking of those "petrified" lives, Mo Ling even felt that he was about to be "petrified".

Under the dual effects of psychological and physiological factors, he began to breathe heavily, his breathing became more and more uneven, and his head felt dizzy.

"Drink some water first and don't think about it." Lu Qi advised slowly.

Mo Ling took out the water bottle and took a big gulp. After the cool liquid went down his throat, the uncomfortable feeling he felt was finally relieved a little.

Seeing that Mo Ling had recovered a little, Router began to analyze it carefully again:

"Your guess may be correct... but it's just a guess. We are not showing any signs of petrification right now. Your body is just experiencing some adverse reactions due to lack of water."

"First, use your vision to check your body to see if there is anything wrong..."

After hearing Lu Luqi's suggestion, Mo Ling quickly began to check his body.

Sure enough, there was no tendency to be "petrified", everything was normal.

"Really not?"

Mo Ling took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.

There is no evidence for the so-called "petrification". It is just his guess based on those "moving stones". His discomfort is more due to psychological effects.

"Did you find anything?" Lu asked seriously.

"No."

"You may be overthinking it. Those stones may just be a special kind of creature."

"Maybe..." Mo Ling nodded.

There is everything in the abyss, he really shouldn't be surprised.

After taking another gulp of water, Mo Ling wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Keep going, speed up."

He threw away all his random thoughts and carefully determined the direction...

After walking in the stone forest for a while, the surrounding stone pillars became less numerous and the two men's speed gradually increased.

But just when Mo Ling thought everything was back on track, some strange things appeared in his field of vision, which instantly made him stop.
