[Entering the cycle of cyclical not wanting to codewords and not wanting to update.] Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoToday this is even more late, I only have 800 words now. I had to take three days off from July 2nd to 4th because I was going to Shanghai. 】

The subtle screams came from the throat of the snake-faced man, and through a thick layer of snake skin, Lin Sanjiu almost thought that he had heard it wrong. When she looked up, she saw that the apple had raised a ball around the snake-faced man's neck, and as the ball slid down quickly, the screams became smaller and quieter, and finally disappeared into its abdomen.

Lin Sanjiu's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

The sound just now also seemed to alarm a few other snake-faced people not far away—they looked in this direction, and then immediately moved, and everyone's eyes narrowed, and while letting out an angry whisper, they quickly rolled down and moved under the tree where Lin Sanjiu was.

Compared with the others, the snake-faced man who had eaten the apple just now seemed to be a little smaller, and it seemed a little uneasy surrounded by several taller snake-faced people--it nodded vigorously, and the snake's tail at the other end was also cocked, cooperating in the air little by little, as if it was apologizing.

…… How? These apples are not allowed to be eaten casually?

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but have this thought. She just wanted to climb closer to take a look, but she didn't expect a snake-faced man to suddenly turn his head without warning and stare at this branch--there was no emotion in his yellow eyes about the size of a room, and he stood upright with a vertical pupil, just facing Lin Sanjiu.

Frightened by this, she immediately fell on her stomach on the branch, hiding behind a rough protruding piece of bark, hoping that the other party would not find her.

The vertical pupil was a little taller than her.

Looking out from the crack in the bark, I saw that the cold transparent yellow stopped, so don't turn away, I shouldn't find Lin Sanjiu, who looks like a little ant. The voices of the snake-faced people still hit high and low waves-Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but secretly rejoice when he was deaf by the shock.

It took a long time for the noise to subside.

Even if you don't understand the language of the snake-faced people, you can tell a rough idea from their actions: the little snake-faced people who steal food have been driven far away to the other side, and can only rub their hands back and forth, and their eyes are gloomy, watching the other snake-faced people busily picking apples.

They obviously have a set of standards for apples: some have been plucked, and some have been left on the tree, I don't know if it's because they're not ripe or big enough - anyway, in Lin Sanjiu's eyes, they're all too big.

After picking the apples from the tree, the snake-faced man was not in a hurry to eat them, but they were all stacked on the ground in a small pile, and the other snake-faced man ordered them one by one, probably counting them.

Seeing that the snake-faced man in charge of picking apples swung his snake tail and swam towards another tree, Lin Sanjiu hurriedly ran to the end of the branch.

On the branch where she was, two apples had been well preserved.

Since there were no leaves on this tree, Lin Sanjiu did not cover it, so he had to lie down and crawl forward when he was about to approach the apple. The closer she got, the more she was frightened by the peculiar fleshy sensation on the apple's skin.

…… The trembling, fleshy skin of the apple occasionally fluctuates when there is no wind, faintly revealing a few pores, and then disappears again.

Lin Sanjiu swallowed his saliva, reached out and touched it gently.

"Hah!"

A rough panting voice suddenly sounded out of nowhere, almost making her slip - and then, a thick and dry faint voice, as if desperate for her life, squeezed out of somewhere, "Aha, ah, help, help......"

Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at the apple in front of him, his hair standing on end—in the place where she touched it, several things that looked like green tendons quickly floated up from the flesh skin—along with the protruding green tendons, the voice sounded even more hoarse, and even men and women couldn't distinguish between men and women:"...... Phew, save ......"

No matter how hard the people inside try, it seems that they can only utter the word "save".

As the snake-faced man swam back and forth, the slight tremor on the ground suddenly stopped--Lin Sanjiu's reason suddenly returned, and he quickly glanced not far away, and saw that the shadow like a mountain really didn't move, and hurriedly pounced on the meat apple, and said in a low voice: "If you want to be rescued, shut up quickly!" ”

The meat apple gasped a few more times, apparently not willing to shut up - but it seemed that the strength was exhausted, and in the end it still did not make any more noise.

Feeling the ground tremble again, Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is there someone trapped inside?" She muttered to herself, her voice so low that she could barely hear herself. "But this apple looks like it's solid......"

Do you want to cut the apple and take a look?

She thought hesitantly.

Just when Lin Sanjiu was a little unsure of her idea, she suddenly felt a light on her body.

…… She had always been very careful, even if there were no leaves to cover her, Lin Sanjiu always stood behind the other apple and hid herself in the shadows. But at this moment, the huge shadow cast by the apple suddenly lifted, and the light instantly enveloped her whole body.

Someone took the apple away.

She turned her head stupidly and met a tall vertical pupil.

…… This time, the Snakeface definitely saw her, right?

Lin Sanjiu suppressed his desire to scream, and slowly took a step back, not daring to take his eyes off the vertical pupil for a moment.

After a few steps, the vertical pupil didn't move with her movements—it was still facing the direction of the two apples, as if searching for the source of the sound it had just made.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly retreated deeper into the branches.

…… If he succeeded in escaping this time, Lin Sanjiu swore that he would wait until the snake-faced man left before coming out.

However, things did not go as planned.

The apple, which still had a few green tendons, suddenly fluctuated again—the flesh-like skin trembled a few times, and after the shape of a few muscles bulged on the apple, the voice screamed again, and this time, it shouted more: "Ahhhhhh......hhhhhhh Come and save me...... Liars, liars...... I hurt ......."

Lin Sanjiu chuckled in his heart and screamed badly.

Obviously, the meat apple is invisible!

The snake-faced man was standing next to the apple at this time, and it immediately caught it clearly—the long toes curled up in the air, and with a "horn" sound, he pulled the screaming fleshy apple down.

Meat Apple let out a chilling cry of pain, and seemed to realize that it had fallen into the hands of a creature on the upper layer of the food chain, and the flesh skin trembled at high speed, dazzling: "No...... Ahh......h Don't kill me...... There was another person here just now, and she-"

It finally became fluent, and before it could finish a sentence, it only listened to a click, and it was broken in half in the snake-faced man's hand, and suddenly there was no sound.

Lin Sanjiu felt that one of her nerves jumped as if it had been choked - she covered her mouth, not daring to move, and a long-lost sense of fear surged in her heart.

From where she was, it wasn't clear what was in the apple. The dripping "juice" trickled down the snake-faced man's hand and fell to the ground, which caught her eye—the crimson color of human blood was mixed with pieces of meat crumbs, as if they had just fallen from the apple.

The status of this snake-faced man seems to be far higher than that of the little snake-faced man just now; Even if an apple was casually broken, the snake-faced people around it just looked up at it and didn't say anything.

It licked half of the apple in its hand, and its long, forked tongue was like a spatula, and it instantly sliced the fleshy apple by a thin layer.

After a bite of the flesh in his stomach, the snake-faced man tilted his head and stared at the apple in his hand, not knowing what to say. The snake-faced man who had been holding the ball of light in his hand hurriedly approached, hissed a few words, and welcomed the one who was eating the apple away.

Seeing that they were all far away, Lin Sanjiu exhaled heavily.

After the scene just now, she didn't dare to rush out rashly anymore; Fortunately, the bark is uneven, and it is not difficult to find a recess to hide into.

"Just wait until they leave......

Lin Sanjiu thought silently.

The Snake-Faced man's action of collecting apples did not last long - many of the fleshy apples were apparently not yet harvested, and the Snake-faced Man left them on the branches and left with a bunch of picks.

As the snake-faced man walked cleanly, the light disappeared. The darkness seemed to suddenly remember this piece of lost land, and killed it back in one fell swoop, once again covering this space tightly, and there were no five fingers visible.

Lin Sanjiu shrank into the groove of the bark and waited for a long time, until she confirmed that there was no sound around her before she cautiously came out.

The bright light of [Ability Grinding Agent] can only shine out at a distance of four or five meters; On such a giant tree, such a glimmer of light is only a glimmer of better than nothing. After walking a few empty branches in a row, Lin Sanjiu was also anxious - at least she had to figure out what was going on with the meat apples first, so she could really think about what to do next, right?

Quickening her pace, she walked through the two twigs again, and at last in the corner of the silver light, she saw half a vague shadow of an apple in the distance.

"I can be regarded as finding ......" Lin Sanjiu hurriedly rushed over and said to himself: "This one has to be quiet!" ”

Before her words fell, a hissing sound suddenly sounded out of nowhere, and it shattered the darkness like thunder.

"Sure enough...... The apple, not lying......"

It seems that he is not proficient in this way of speaking, and every familiar word of Lin Sanjiu is mixed with a jerky and strange hiss. She couldn't stop her hands from trembling, and barely lifted the violently trembling silver light, and saw the speaker's face clearly in the light.

The deep, cracked mouth was embedded in the face of the small snake-faced man, as if to show that he was satisfied at the moment.

"Here...... It's true...... Someone. ”
