Vol 4 Chapter 2676: Enter the forbidden area!

The patriarch of the elf clan has a very good attitude. As soon as he came up, he directly asked a young clan of his who seemed to be more reliable to take Ye Chen and the others to this place together.
This is also a forbidden place for their entire race.
But this time Ye Chen did so many necessary rewards for them, so naturally he couldn't be stingy.
The young man walked ahead and led them around the forest for half an hour before stopping in front of a low fence.
"I can't go further inside, but what the elder said is inside. Remember that all the branches here are best not to touch, because they are poisonous."
"Of course, some have branches facing inwards, so there is no danger, while some have branches facing outwards and must be avoided, and if you encounter any strange creatures inside, you don't need to pay attention."
"As long as you don't provoke those things, they won't attack you. Of course, except for the thing the elder said, it's best not to touch anything, and don't bring anything out."
This young guy was obviously arranged by the team leader, so he said these things very carefully, so they were afraid that Ye Chen and the others didn't hear it clearly!
"Okay, then we probably know that too. Thank you for bringing us here. Will you also pick us up when you come out?"
Ye Chen asked casually, after all, if the thing found here is of no use to them, they must go back again.
He wouldn't feel that there were no other clues. Anyway, he came here, and he didn't bring anything. It would be a pity to go back.
The young clansman obviously did not expect this, but after a pause, he immediately nodded in agreement.
"Our whole family will bless a few benefactors outside and get what they want smoothly."
"Okay, I see, then you can go back!"
Ye Chen waved his hand, and then gently pushed open the half-closed gate.
Ye Chen was curious about this place, after all, it seemed that the small place they walked into was not much different from the ordinary forest outside.
It's just that there are more weeds here, and there are no fruits that are specially grown and eaten like outside.
Here is a kind of black tree leaves with a little green on them.
Inexplicably, the atmosphere here is rendered and pressed down several levels.
But for the three of them, they were getting tired of seeing such a scene. Wasn't it the same scene in the forest of the Pengniao family at that time?
So the three of them walked forward without changing their faces, and based on the picture they had read at the patriarch and the elder, the elder personally hand-painted a short roadmap.
He told them to come in through the fence, where to go quickly and safely.
Ye Chen took the map and turned two corners along the route above and saw the huge tree, and the thing they were looking for was buried under the tree.
It seems that a thin layer of fallen leaves has fallen on the ground, but there are unknown things hidden under it, it is hard not to set off a little excitement.
After Ye Chen saw there, he quickened his pace and walked under the tree, with Lin Mo and Pengfei following behind him.
Pengfei also stuck his head out and looked under the tree curiously.
Lin Mo, on the other hand, didn't care about what was buried in the ground, and instead walked around the tree.
"It's easier to find, but why is this place classified as a restricted area? Doesn't it look like the outside world? It's not dangerous!"
Ye Chen said inexplicably under the tree, then walked to the position he saw on the crystal ball at the time, and squatted down.
There is no need to take out the sword for such digging, so he casually took out the knife that was close to his body and slammed it into the soil.
I thought that there were no people like this at all, and the planting place should be very hard, but I didn't expect that the knife would go through easily as soon as it was inserted.
And there's even a bit of a soft look here.
Ye Chen stretched out a finger and pressed it down. Sure enough, the place was very humid, but when he first entered this forbidden area, he clearly felt that the soil on the ground was quite hard.
But although he felt a little strange in his heart, he didn't really want to care about this trivial matter.
He quickly started running up the ground with his own knife, and the two companions couldn't help.
After all, Lin Mo had no tools, and Pengfei, who was standing beside him, couldn't peck with his own mouth, right?
Even after several tens of centimeters visible to the naked eye, there was still no gain. Ye Chen wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.
And just then his knife hit something hard!
"I found it, I found it, fortunately I didn't change places!"
Five centimeters down, if he can't find it again, he may really have to go to the other side, who knows it's just such a coincidence.
He immediately took out all the soil on it, and sure enough, an old box buried underneath was revealed.
It was exactly the same as what I saw in the crystal ball at that time, but there was a slight color difference.
It didn't matter, after all, the crystal ball was completely blue and full of weirdness.
This time, the two partners also gathered over the three of them. You are here, and then Ye Chen took the box out and put it on the flat ground beside it.
There is a gap in the middle of this wooden box. It seems that it should be opened, but he didn't know where to open it. Ye Chen picked up the knife next to him, and was about to insert it into the gap, and then opened it.
However, he was grabbed by the arm of Lin Mo, who was beside him, and shook his head to tell him not to do it.
Then Lin Mo took the box over, and then his fingers gently touched the top of the top to the bottom of the bottom, and successfully found a very hard-to-find hidden button!
Then lightly press the box and it actually opens with a pop!
"Okay, it turns out there is such a troublesome process, open it up and see what's inside!"
Ye Chen looked at the box happily, his eyes were about to pop out, then he reached out and opened the box, it turned out to be a piece of emerald green jade inside!
"What is this? Shouldn't it be a note or a map? Why is it all together again? What's the use of it?"
Ye Chen stretched out his hand to touch the jade, but who knew that he had just touched it a little, but it seemed to be frozen for a while, and he immediately withdrew his hand subconsciously.
"No, why is the coldness of this piece of jade so heavy? Just touch it lightly, and I feel like my fingers are about to freeze."
Ye Chen put his finger to his mouth and exhaled a breath of heat, which made him feel better.
Lin Mo also touched it. Although his perceptive nerves were not particularly strong, he could clearly feel the difference in this piece of jade.
"If there is only this, I can't see any clues now."
Ye Chen said helplessly, and then pulled the jade slightly to the side with his own knife.
It was later discovered that there was nothing else in the box.
And now he couldn't touch the jade anyway, so he covered the box and looked up and down, hoping to find any clues from it.
It's a pity that there is no use at all, the jade wrapped in mahogany is a complete piece of wood.
Except for the hidden button that can open the switch, the rest is so flat that even a single stroke cannot be found.
He shook his head helplessly, they didn't know what was the use of it, but it was not a waste of time!
Although I didn't find any very useful clues, this jade does not seem to be a simple thing.
In short, the three of them were ready to leave this big tree and return the same way.
When Ye Chen stood up, he followed his feet and filled in the soil he had just dug out.
At this moment, the huge tree in front of them began to feel a slight tremor, as if it had been touched by something.
Ye Chen was startled, and quickly pulled his two partners back a few steps, keeping a distance.
And just when they were on the embankment of this tree, something strange would appear, and suddenly there was some fine sound in their ears.
Like the sound of some small animal?
Of course Ye Chen remembered what the elf clan said before he came in, but he was still somewhat curious.
So he turned around and found that behind a small tree not far away, a fox was quietly looking at them.
This fox looks out of place here, because its whole body is golden yellow and reddish.
It's like an animal that shouldn't exist here.
Of course, Marven Ye couldn't relax his vigilance against this fox because of this mere feature.
The fox just had a slight air leak when looking at them, and then jumped over them very quickly and went straight to the tree.
Then he climbed up towards the tree, and more leaves fell.
And as soon as he climbed up, the shock disappeared, and Ye Chen was very surprised.
Then he didn't see that the little fox jumped down from the tree, and walked over like a mature human being.
He raised his beautiful head and glanced at Ye Chen, and then he opened his mouth to speak human words.
Compared with the words spoken by the people of the elves, what this fox speaks is obviously more standard, and there is no native language of their own.
This immediately aroused Ye Chen's great interest.
"Take him with me!"
The fox only said this, then turned around and walked lightly towards the back of the tree.
And then Ye Chen realized that what the fox said should be the beautiful jade in his hand.
So he glanced at the partner beside him, Lin Mo seemed to be very interested in this too.
So they followed tacitly, with Pengfei at the bottom, Ye Chen and Lin Mo walking behind the fox.
Although Ye Chen did not forget what the clan said when he came in.
But no matter what consequences he will face in the future, he can bear it, so there is no need to worry about it for a while now.
What's more, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and wanted to know what else was in this mountain.
For the patriarch of the elf clan and the elder, he was not completely relieved.
And then they kept following the fox forward like this, and after going around several bends, they stopped at a cave that looked very hidden.
The fox used his mouth to pull away two branches, which revealed the hill, the dark hole here.
The little fox didn't speak again except for the sentence he just said.
Even if they got to the entrance of the cave, they didn't need Ye Chen's help, so they walked forward with them.
After Ye Chen and Lin Mo quietly summed up a couple of sentences, they decided to follow up. If there is any problem, they will face it. At this time, there is really nothing to be afraid of.
Maybe through this cave, what more unknown content can be found?
In the mountain I passed before, I did not find the door drawn on the map, and it is very likely that it will appear here.
In short, according to the description in the book and the content drawn on the map, we can know that this door is a huge key!
As soon as I entered the cave, I was suddenly stepped on by the weeds on the ground covered by the surrounding black.
He was also taken aback, but he quickly calmed down.
Ye Chen raised his hand and a small flame appeared. He walked forward by the weak light. After all, he didn't know whether to let the torch be fired or not, and he didn't see any big wood around it.
The fox came to a corner, stopped, and then talked to Ye Chen and the others.
"What you're looking for is right here."
As soon as Ye Chen heard him say this, he immediately opened his mouth and wanted to ask what it was and what he would face next. Who knows, the fox just jumped into the hole and disappeared after three or two strokes.
And Ye Chen tried to ask a question, and he opened his mouth to say two words, but the empty cave made the sound different, and even felt that there were some sonic attacks.
So he closed his mouth immediately, and now he must not open his mouth to amplify his voice, he can only speak quietly.
"We're all here, so let's go in and take a look. It's not too late."
When Ye Chen was told by the fox, he felt that this piece of jade in his hand would definitely be useful for a while, and maybe he would be able to self-defeatingly open up the mystery they had been trying to solve!
So at this time there is no shirk, it is better to go in and have a look.
The big deal is to come out in a daze, and it's not bad for a while, isn't it more unfortunate to return without success?
Based on this principle, Ye Chen saw that the fox had also left, so he picked up a twig from the ground, and then lit it with the small flame in his hand, and sure enough, it was much brighter.
And after turning this corner, you can still only see a piece of darkness, even if there is a fire here, you can only see a small part of them.
"We still have to be careful. Pengfei, you stand at the back, and if there is any danger, just scream softly."
Ye Chen spoke in a very low voice, of course, because they were relatively close, they could hear them.
