Chapter 196: Grab the lifeline

The rope was around my neck, stretching and tightening until all my nerves began to run out of oxygen, and my body couldn't stop shaking violently.

I reached out and grabbed the nearest piece of bark, and with so much force I almost dug my nails into the bark, but I didn't feel any pain. A high-pitched, sustained roar in my ears hit my periosteum, and I could barely hear anything except the one that was almost life-threatening.

"Girl......"

"Girl......"

The violently open mouth of the corpse is the source of this sound. I always felt the corners of the corpse's eyes wrinkle slightly, squeezing out the dry wrinkled lines at the ends of the eyes, and raising slightly, as if to bring a strange smile after seeing my frightened expression.

He was pleased with my reaction.

The voice was so similar to that of a crane that I almost thought it was him as the corpse lying on the ground convulsing, but when I looked closely, it was clearly not, and I was startled by the expression on the corpse's face. This repeated confirmation almost drove me crazy.

I shook my head desperately, trying to shake the noise out of my mind. His vision and hearing have been controlled by him, and I didn't expect the weak man here to have such a terrifying ability.

After about five minutes, the roar in my ears suddenly disappeared. I don't know if it was too much pain or what, but for a moment I was in a trance and didn't know where I was, whether it was a dream or reality, until the light of the flashlight I was holding tightly in my hand hit my eyes, and I suddenly reacted.

I held on to the trunk of the tree and kept panting, and at some point my legs had fallen to the ground, so I had to stand up little by little by holding on to the trunk. It was already dark, and I leaned back on the trunk of a tree, and only after standing still did I try to move my body a little.

Cold sweat oozed from the palm of the hand holding the flashlight. I held it up tremblingly, slowly shining the light in the direction of the corpse. Under the strong light, the atmosphere in the woods became more and more eerie, and there were many shadows and shadows, as if there were many people hiding in the dark and peeping at me. I regret my decision more and more, but there is no regret medicine in the world, and I guess I will lose my life on this list.

I looked and looked in the original direction. No trace of the corpse was found. I panicked. In his memory, the weak man who was lying on the ground should have already shown signs of imminent corpse, his face was pale, and black blood vessels burst out. Even his body is in this unnatural state, and he may break free from the roots that entangle him at any time and anywhere, and get up to touch the top.

When I think about it, I suddenly feel a chill in my head. This guy must have run out of the ground, hiding somewhere, waiting for an opportunity. It's not good for me to walk and stand still. I didn't have an idea for a while.

It was still frantic all around, but my heart struggled. Just when I didn't know what to do, I got goosebumps on my neck again.

Almost subconsciously, he squatted down, and he didn't react yet. The trees behind me snapped, and I could almost feel something flying down my head, piercing the trunk behind me.

My brain went blank. The only reaction was to run, and the two legs didn't even stand firmly. Immediately spread out and ran forward, not even daring to look back, just running desperately. If I'm not mistaken, that thing is already attacking me.

The sound of my messy footsteps and violent wheezing echoed through the woods, and I could barely hear anything else. I couldn't believe my ears that a man so much taller than me could walk without the slightest sound in such an environment.

The trees in front of me flashed one by one, like a fast-forward shot in a movie, and like a soul lost in the forest, passing me one by one. As I ran, I suddenly changed my mind, and after turning at a right angle to the tree in front of me, I chose a tree that looked larger, and pulled out my folding knife.

Didn't Cheng Xiao mention that this kind of monster called Weak Lang can't do anything other than walk forward, and I think that this guy will definitely not be able to climb trees with my toes.

Just do it. I immediately swung my knife at the trunk, which was so strong that it barely shook in the slightest.

Very good, that's what I want.

Although I don't usually like sports, and I will be out of breath when I trot a few steps, the first time I learned that I was going to save the province, I knew that exercise was essential. Not to mention hiding from any weird zombies, even to deal with altitude sickness, I have to make myself weaker and stronger.

I put the flashlight in my mouth, and the light flickered all of a sudden, and my eyes hurt, so I quickly bit it with my teeth. The smell of metal slammed into my mouth, almost making me sick, but the only goal in front of me was to save my life, and I didn't want to be found out and become the nourishment of a tree.

After making sure that the knife had penetrated deep into the trunk, I slammed myself up, as if I were doing a pull-up, and took advantage of the gap in my brain, retracted my legs up until the heel of my shoe touched the hilt of the knife, and stood up a little bit by holding the trunk.

I suddenly regretted that I had eaten so much yak meat at Yangjin's house. I could clearly feel the handle of the knife stuck in the trunk of the tree moving down a little, barely able to support my weight. I looked up and saw that the branch closest to me, and the one that could hold my weight, was still quite far away, and it was almost impossible to hook it with my hand.

Forget it, it's better to be a dead horse doctor than to be killed by a zombie.

I held the trunk of the tree and gradually slowed down my heartbeat, and after breathing a little more steadily, I slowly tried to let go, until the moment I let go, I suddenly pushed my feet and jumped upward.

Naturally, the light of the flashlight had shimmered so hard that I couldn't see the situation in front of me, and I could only judge the branch I had just seen by the only sense of direction I had left.

The moment I jumped, my mind went blank, and my hands mechanically hooked upward, but what I touched was always air.

My heart sank, and I didn't make a mistake in my judgment, and if I didn't put that branch on it, then I didn't want to live through tonight.

There is a saying that if God closes a door for you, it will definitely open another window for you. I used to be disgusted with this kind of chicken soup-like article, but I didn't expect that I would have such a day.

Obviously, my bouncing power was not good, but by coincidence, I actually touched a smooth rope, which seemed to be the last straw that could save my life, and after I grabbed it, the whole person fell into the air.

didn't have time to think about it, after inhaling it into his stomach in one breath, he held it hard, his lower abdomen tightened and violently exerted force, and he hung his leg on the branch in front of him, and his arm was empty for a moment, and he hurriedly wrapped around the other end of the branch.

After holding my breath for three seconds, I finally didn't hear the creaking sound of the branches crushing and decaying, and now I was steady, and I almost didn't suffocate me when I exhaled in one breath.

There was a clear sound coming from the ground, and you don't have to guess to know that with the strength under your feet just now, you must have stepped on the folding knife to Shengsheng.

I didn't have time to think about it, so I twisted my body and turned myself over, and then crawled up the trunk like a tree, until I finally got up when I came across the trunk that needed to be surrounded by several people.

It didn't take much time, but I felt like a century had passed, all the energy in my body was gone, and I didn't know how much sweat had come out. At this time, there is no time to complain, standing on this branch, it can be regarded as saving his life, at least he will not die tonight.

One of the things I regret the most now is that I didn't let Cheng Xiao tell the story about the weak man clearly, if I could know how to deal with him, I wouldn't be hiding in a tree like this. I suddenly realized that except for the special skill of tapir in my dream, I was simply a waste of wood in other situations, and I no longer had any ability, and I was not even qualified to break into this matter.

The tree had many branches, a little different from the trees next to it, it should be above them, and the dense leaves on top formed a huge umbrella, which snapped against the thick trunk.

I don't know if it's because of safety, my thoughts are much clearer, I first took the flashlight out of my mouth, and the handle was soaked in a circle of saliva, and I almost didn't hold it and fell down. After looking at the situation below, there was nothing unusual, and he turned his gaze to the rope that had just been there.

The rope is made of nylon, which looks thin and inconspicuous, but its ability to tolerate weight is quite impressive. This is supposed to be a kind of rope often used by outdoor climbers, and this thing should not have been left by the aborigines.

When the rope had no support point, it hung limply on the branch, and the free end swayed weakly in all directions, and it took a long time to stop. Through the white light of the flashlight, the end of the rope was a little dark, as if it was dyed with something.

Probably bloodstains, I thought about it.

In this kind of situation, what else can it be but blood? I can almost imagine how the owner of this rope was injured and how he grabbed it and got rid of the weak man. But......

Where has he gone?

I looked back at the trees around me, there was hardly any place to hide, and gradually, I looked upwards, and the dense foliage was a good place to hide.

But since there is blood, it is impossible to leave it on the rope and not elsewhere, and to go up the branches, you must pass through my path, but there is no trace of the way on which he has come up.

I really can't think of another way, is it possible that this guy suddenly disappeared, or is it ......

Or did he not come up at all, and he had already gone to see Lord Yama?

My heart pounded suddenly, and before I could recover it, there was a sudden sound in my ears that came and went.

Cluck-cluck...... Cluck-cluck...... (To be continued.) )>
