Chapter 101: The Ghost Mother
Yang You looked up at the branches of the giant tree, and after a long time, he took a breath and said, "I should have thought of it a long time ago, and only this tree can let the lily live in this place where the earth does not see the light of day......"
I was stunned and said, "You mean this tree feeds those Lishan monsters?" ”
Yang You nodded and said, "It's not just the Li, I see the entire Yin Man Valley, the once prosperous Yelang Ancient City, has become a place where people and animals are difficult to approach, all because of it." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
I was even more amazed and hurriedly asked, "Why is that?" Could it be that this tree has become a thousand-year-old demon? ”
Yang You didn't speak, integrated the light of the flashlight into a beam, and shone it on the branches closest to the ground, but there were also nearly ten meters of branches, and said, "Look there, are there a lot of branches hanging down?" ”
"I saw it when I slid down from it, this tree can't be a giant willow, right?" Naturally, I saw it, and replied.
"Mademoiselle is to show you the end of the branch." Uncle Tie's eyes are sharp, and he can already see it clearly without Yang You's words.
I heard the words and looked, although the light of the flashlight is not strong, but it can still be seen faintly, and sure enough, the ends of those inverted branches have a small nest-like object, because it is too far away to see clearly, if I have to describe it, I feel like a bird's nest on the branches.
"In the myths and legends of Wu Chu, the Lili was born because of its mother, but it had to stay away, and the mother of the Lili was the giant tree that it needed in front of him, called the Ghost Mother of the Lily." Yang You pointed to those nest-like objects again, and said, "I'm afraid of those, that's where the lily lives." ”
I was shocked when I heard this, and said, "Then wouldn't we have broken into the lair of the lily, if those lily found us, I'm afraid this is the place where we are buried." ”
Yang You looked very calm, and said: "Since we opened the coffin of the Gu King, the lily were all led out, and we are still safe for the time being." This blue and white demon is really not simple, not only introduced the dragon to the ancient tomb, but even the ghost mother of the dragon was used by him to block the yin ditch. The Blue and White Sect has a long history and many capable people, so it seems that he must not be an unknown person. ”
"Miss, is this ghost mother you are talking about, is it the ghost sea willow that is often said on the southern seaside?" Uncle Tie's face was dark, and he said suddenly.
Yang You nodded and said, "I'm afraid that it is, the ghost mother in the legend of Wu Chu does have many similarities with the ghost sea willows that have been passed down from generation to generation in the mouths of fishermen on the southern seaside. For example, it can swallow and breathe highly toxic mist, fishermen fish in the sea, once they encounter the ghost sea willow spit mist, it must be more auspicious and less auspicious, only a very small number of excellent fishermen can master a certain law to avoid, which is very similar to the white fog that can kill people in the yin ditch. ”
"Slow, slow, you say that this ghost mother is the ghost sea willow, how can this ghost thing living in the sea live under this ancient tomb?" I noticed something wrong and hurriedly asked.
Yang You and Uncle Tie stopped talking, maybe they didn't know, but after a while, Yang You sighed and said, "The Blue and White Sect is too mysterious, you are right, this thing that lives in the sea does appear under this ancient tomb." If my guess is correct, it must have something to do with the surrounding environment, it is these crystal-like minerals that give them the necessary environment to survive. ”
Regardless of how they survived, since Yang You said just now that the tree called the ghost mother is the nest of the Lili, I have always felt cold in my heart, maybe the shadow area in my heart left before is too huge, and hurriedly said: "Then how are we going to get out of here, once those Lili come back, it will be troublesome." ”
As soon as the words came out, I regretted it, Yang You couldn't find out the secret of the Blue and White Sect here, after all, it was something that her family had been searching for, and she must be sad in her heart. And she didn't care about any remuneration for Luo Da Scar to find something to solve the Gu, I was in a hurry to leave when I found it, and it was too unrighteous to do so.
Yang You lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said, "If the ghost mother wants to exhale the mist, there must be an outlet for excretion, I guess as long as we climb up along the tree, we will definitely be able to find a way out." ”
"I ......" I just wanted to say that I want to stop looking for other clues, but I didn't expect my hand to be raised, the flashlight I was holding was not taken well, and it fell to the ground as soon as I lifted it, I hurriedly squatted down to pick it up, and suddenly I was stunned, only to see a painting carved under the crystal-like surface of the ground, but this painting is very weird and terrifying, and the painting is the one we saw before.
The claw danced under the crystal, as if it was running with all its might, and the black hair on its body and the fangs on its mouth were vividly drawn, as if it was about to jump out from under the crystal.
"Look, there's a painting of a lily here." I said to Yang You and Uncle Tie, but when I looked up and looked down, I was suddenly stunned, because the painting seemed to be different from the one I saw just now.
It turned out that the painting was of a lily running hard, with its left foot behind and its right foot protruding, but when I looked up and looked down, its front and rear feet changed directions, and even the position of the two forefeet was different, and the small eyes shone with a strange light, which made me tremble.
What the hell is going on with this crystal painting? Is it possible to make different changes depending on the angle? Who the hell painted such a picture here? How did you draw such a strange portrait? Could it be the Pope of the Blue and White Sect? What's the point?
A series of questions flashed through my mind, and I realized that while I was thinking about this, the painting seemed to have changed in a different way, and it was really weird.
Yang You and Uncle Tie squatted on the ground, shining a flashlight on the painting, the more they looked at it, the more solemn their faces became, I was about to ask them if they had found anything, suddenly Yang You's face changed greatly, stood up and said: "It's not good, the ghost mother is injured, these lily should sense it, they are going back to the nest, hurry up to the tree." ”
I heard that my scalp was numb, and the back of my head was tense, I was really afraid of something, and when I stood up and looked, the light of the flashlight flickered on the ground, and I found that the whole ground was almost full of shadows, so frightened that I took three steps and made two steps towards the trunk of the ghost mother.
Some people scoff at myths and legends, believing that they are the product of man's self-deception in an ignorant society, but no matter how strange the rain comes from, no matter how strange the myth, its prototype can be found to some extent. Now this mountain monster that can drill mountains and seas in myths and legends has appeared alive in front of him, and who dares to doubt it anymore.
We ran to the trunk of the ghost mother, and Yang You took the lead and climbed up. The trunk of this ghost mother tree is extremely thick, and it is very rough to the touch. Fortunately, I have been wild with Luo Dascar in the village since I was a child, and climbing trees or something is a pediatric thing. Back then, he and Luo Dascar climbed a taller tree, and at that time, I never thought that I would be able to climb such a huge tree one day.
I think of the black hard stuff we dug up in the thief hole, I'm afraid it's related to this ghost mother, otherwise it would be impossible to get bloody as soon as I dig it, so I can imagine how developed the roots of this ghost mother are, and the coverage must be very wide.
Because of the thick trunk, we didn't have a lot of effort to climb up, we climbed more than ten meters high, suddenly Yang You stopped in front, I followed her, and was about to ask her what happened, but she took the flashlight in her mouth in her hand, and shone it on the branch next to her, and said, "Look! ”
I looked in the direction she was pointing, and saw countless dry bones hanging from the branches of the ghost mother and the branches of the inverted hammer, most of these dry bones were animal bones, and some of them looked very much like human bones, I don't know if they were or not. We carefully climbed up, and found that the higher we went, the more dry bones hung on, and more and more humanoid skeletons appeared.
The more I look at it, the more frightened I become, could it be that these are the **** that disappeared in the yin ditch? It turns out that in addition to those highly poisonous white fogs, these lily are the real culprits, and it seems that these **** have been used as nourishment for the lily or the ghost mother.
Maybe it's because I shouldn't have died or because of the blessing of Aunt Yang You, I was caught by Lu Li, but I don't know why I wasn't caught here, but thrown into that confined space, otherwise I would have been hung here as an adult to dry and dry.
"Hurry up, they're out!" I heard Uncle Tie say something below me, looked down, and was so frightened that I almost let go of my hands, only to see that under the trunk of the ghost mother, there were dense climbing lily on the ground, and some of them had begun to climb up, but I was afraid that they would find us.
We sped up, but as the faint yellow glow of the flashlight swept over the branch next to me, my body involuntarily paused, and I saw a backpack hanging from a horizontal branch. (To be continued.) )
