Chapter 233: "Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Adventure of Breaking Out of Despair"
Lin Xiao walked alone in the eerie forest. The moonlight seemed to be blocked by a thick veil, and could only barely penetrate the dense leaves, casting a few faint and strange rays of light. Thick fog filled the air, like a huge white spider web, covering the entire forest tightly. Lin Xiao's footsteps were extremely heavy. With every step she took, she could feel the dead branches and leaves under her feet making a "crunching" sound, as if the forest was sending her a malicious warning.
"What the hell is this place? I feel like I've walked into a horrible nightmare!" Lin Xiao frowned, her face pale, her eyes filled with fear and helplessness. She bit her lips tightly, her hands trembled unconsciously, and the wooden stick in her hand seemed to be her only support at the moment.
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and Lin Xiao couldn't help shivering. The leaves rustled, as if countless invisible hands were gently caressing her back, making her hair stand on end.
"Oh my god, this wind is too weird!" Lin Xiao screamed and his body involuntarily curled up into a ball.
At this moment, a huge black shadow passed over her head, bringing with it a gust of wind. The wind howled, making Lin Xiao's hair and clothes flutter wildly.
"What is that?!" Lin Xiao collapsed to the ground in fear, his eyes wide open, his heart seemed to jump out of his throat.
The shadow stopped on a tree not far away. With the weak moonlight, Lin Xiao finally saw its appearance clearly. It was a huge black bird with a wingspan of two or three meters. Its eyes were flashing red light, like two burning fireballs.
"What kind of monster is this?!" Lin Xiao shouted in horror, his voice changing tone.
The strange bird opened its sharp beak and let out a sharp cry, the sound of which seemed to pierce a person's soul.
"Help!" Lin Xiao tried to escape by rolling and crawling, but found that his legs were pressed down by lead blocks and he could not move at all.
The strange bird flapped its wings and swooped down towards Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao closed his eyes in despair, waiting for death to come.
At this critical moment, a bright light suddenly flashed, and the strange bird was shot down to the ground. Lin Xiao slowly opened her eyes and saw a mysterious figure appear in front of her.
"Little girl, are you okay?" The mysterious man's voice was low and magnetic.
Lin Xiao raised his head and looked at the mysterious man in front of him, his eyes full of gratitude and confusion.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Lin Xiao asked tremblingly.
The mysterious man smiled and said, "I am here to save you. This forest is not simple and is full of dangers."
Lin Xiao stood up, dusted himself off, and said, "Thank you, but what on earth is going on?"
The mysterious man looked around and said, "This is the Fantasy Forest, which is shrouded by an evil force. You have mistakenly entered and have fallen into great danger."
Lin Xiao frowned and said, "Then what should we do?"
The mysterious man pondered for a moment and said, "Follow me, I know a way out."
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to follow the mysterious man. They walked through the forest carefully, and all kinds of strange noises and shadows were heard from time to time.
"Oh, I'm so scared!" Lin Xiao followed the mysterious man closely, with a crying tone in his voice.
The mysterious man comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
As they walked, they came to a turbulent river, the water roared and splashed like an angry dragon.
"How do I cross this river?" Lin Xiao looked at the river and his face became even paler.
The mysterious man took out a rope from his arms and said, "We will tie the rope to the trees on both sides of the river, and then pull the rope to cross the river."
Lin Xiao nodded, and the two began to move. Just as they were about to reach the other side, an accident happened.
The rope suddenly broke, and Lin Xiao and the mysterious man both fell into the water.
"Help!" Lin Xiao struggled desperately in the water.
The mysterious man swam towards Lin Xiao and lifted her up.
"Hold on!" the mysterious man shouted.
After some effort, they finally reached the shore. Lin Xiao lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
"It's so thrilling!" said Lin Xiao.
The mysterious man said: "This is just the beginning. The road ahead will be even more difficult."
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, I'm going to get out!"
They continued on their journey, encountering various dangers and challenges along the way...
