Chapter 43: Omen

Jiang Xiaomeng settled down at this time and looked ahead carefully, but to his surprise, the mysterious fruit tree that appeared in his eye socket just now disappeared after a moment.

What the hell is going on?

Jiang Xiaomeng wiped his eyes carefully, and tried his best to look ahead, only to see that the mountain was shrouded in a mist, and the fruit tree in the object was only faintly exposed a layer of treetops.

Lin Qianyu walked to Jiang Xiaomeng's side at this time and looked at the front with a solemn expression.

"What the hell is that thing?"

Jiang Xiaomeng also spoke slowly at this time.

"Did you even see that fruit tree on the hill just now?"

Lin Qianyu nodded, and then sighed helplessly.

"It should be an illusion, how can fruit trees grow in such a place? This place is a cliff, not to mention what fruit trees can grow on this cliff, even the surrounding wild grass can't grow, after all, this place has no way to root into the rocks. ”

Jiang Xiaomeng nodded, then grabbed a stone next to him, and suddenly threw it forward, only to see that the shadow-like fruit tree in front of him had indeed disappeared without a trace.

"But what should we do next? The huge bloated man is gone, so where should we investigate?"

Lin Qianyu also sighed helplessly at this time.

"I don't know about that, but one of the benefits of this mission is that there is no time limit, which means that the only thing we have to do now is survive in this game. ”

I saw that at this time, there were several strange sounds flowing from the waterfall next to the cliff just now, Jiang Xiaomeng and Lin Qianyu quickly came to the side of the water, and there were many people and fruits flowing down from the waterfall, and then drifted downstream along the turbulent river.

These face fruits are exactly the same as the ones I have seen before, all of them are a fresh fruit, and there is a strange human face on it, these people have different faces, but they are all mixed with evil energy and the breath of the living.

After seeing this scene, Jiang Xiaomeng's heart chuckled, and he couldn't stop swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

"There are so many, you also said just now, this thing is called the human face fruit, it should fall from the human face fruit tree, every time it grows into a human face fruit, it will sacrifice a person's life, we have seen a lot of people, the face fruit rolled down from the mountain, can it be said ......?"

After hearing this, Lin Qianyu also frowned.

"Actually, it is not strange in such a scene, as long as there is a large-scale war, or there is a plague in it, or famine and malaria, etc., and there are many casualties, there should be such a large-scale human face. ”

Jiang Xiaomeng's heart was still chatting about a layer of bad omens, and he looked up at the sky.

"Is there really a war in this place, but in the mountains and forests, or is there something more terrifying waiting for us to discover?"

There was still a steep rock wall ahead, and I had to pass through this canyon in front of me, because the road was completely blocked and very steep.

The two of them could only grope for a small point of the rock wall in front of them, and slowly approached the front.

That's it.,I don't know how long it's been time.,It's getting late.,It's still daytime when it originally appeared in this game scene.。

In the blink of an eye, it was already dusk, and the huge sunset was falling from the west, like a copper furnace that had been burned out, and the last trace of the sunset afterglow was sprinkled on the rock wall on the west horizon, and the dazzling red was like red blood.

In this way, I don't know how long they walked, Jiang Xiaomeng and Lin Qianyu finally came to the side of this cliff, and there was already an open space in front of them.

Looking up at the front, since he saw a huge fruit tree appearing on the cliff again, Jiang Xiaomeng suddenly wiped his eyes, believing that what he saw this time was definitely not an illusion, but a real fruit tree.

Lin Qianyu also noticed it at this time, and infinite horror flashed in her eyes.

"Since there are such huge fruit trees, it turns out that I have only seen them in the data, such as those human face fruit trees are grown from those human face fruit trees, but this is the first time I have seen such a huge human face fruit tree. ”

Jiang Xiaomeng nodded at this time, carefully observing the fruit tree coming out of the cliff, and around it was a layer of purple-black objects, which was constantly shrouded on the craggy mountain.

"And there is quite a lot of evil qi buried around this human-faced fruit tree, I'm afraid this human-faced fruit tree is not ordinary. ”

Lin Qianyu also nodded in agreement at this time.

"To be able to grow like this, I think it must have absorbed a lot of nutrients from people. ”

"Anyway, we'll have to climb up and see the tree first, and if we can find a way to destroy it, maybe the task will be easily completed. ”

Lin Qianyu immediately said at this time.

"Is it going to be so easy? We're in a life-threatening horror mission, so I'm afraid it's not easy. ”

Jiang Xiaomeng and Lin Qianyu discussed it, and decided to climb to the top of this cliff first to take a look, although it is a bit dangerous to go to the front and back, but it is much safer to go up along this cliff.

When he was about to come to the upper level of the cliff, a black and fat shadow came out in front of him, and he was in a trance for a moment in the surrounding mist, and a strong smell of rotting corpses diffused from the mist.

Lin Qianyu had already smelled this evil smell from a distance at this time, and she also covered her mouth and nose for a moment.

"The smell is...... The smell of dead man's rot. ”

Jiang Xiaomeng also nodded in horror at this time.

"You're right, this place is really terrifying, and what is that shadow in front of you...... Is it a human or a ghost?"

Jiang Xiaomeng and Lin Qianyu held their breath at the same time, only to see that the black and fat shadow was constantly approaching the two of them at this time, and they were about ten meters away from them, and finally saw the true face of this shadow.

It turned out that this was the bloated man they had seen at the beginning, with a wreath on his head and a rattan cane in his hand, and he was very fat and carried a gourd around his waist.

On the other side, his hand seemed to be dragging a rope, and on the other rope was a dying man.

And the man before was the man who wanted to escape, and now he has been tied back by this bloated man.

"It's just bad luck, you still want to escape, don't you know that you have to listen to my orders when you come to this place?"

The man didn't speak, but his breath had become very weak, and a red mark had been drawn from the rope around his neck, dragging a long mark on the ground.

After seeing this, Jiang Xiaomeng's chest suddenly swelled up with a nameless anger, he clenched his fists, and suddenly jumped out of the grass.

Lin Qianyu on the side pinched a cold sweat for him.

"Didn't you say now that you can't startle the snake, why did you jump out alone, if you die in this place, you will really die, this place is not exactly a game in the horror mission!"

Seeing Jiang Xiaomeng, who was in front of this man, the bloated man suddenly stopped and looked at him with slanted eyes.

"Who the hell are you, and why are you hiding in this place?"

Jiang Xiaomeng looked at the bloated man with angry eyes at this time, and then looked at the person tied to the rope in his hand.

"What are you doing, what is this man guilty of, and why are you doing this to him?"

The bloated man snorted coldly at this time.

"This place is called Taoyuan, I am the Taoyuan Immortal here, since he has joined my Taoyuan, how can he leave without permission? For such a heretic, I have no choice but to treat him as a fertilizer for human face. ”
