Chapter 672: The Ancient Tree of Terror

"What would we be without these powders?" Lao Meng walked forward while stepping on those strange faces, and said to Li Mu with a pale face.

"It will become the person we saw in the passage, whether it is star armor or any armor, I am afraid that it will be directly pierced by this weird smiling face, and it will have no effect at all, and it will directly eat up the flesh and blood inside, leaving only skeletons." Li Mu said.

"You mean, that person was gnawed by these disgusting smiles?" The old ghost's voice trembled slightly.

"There should be nothing wrong with this, they came in from the outside, I don't know what method they used, and they didn't kill these so-called demon smiles, maybe they have been chased by the devil smiles, after entering the treasure room, they only came and opened two boxes, and the contents of the second box encountered an accident before they could come and take them out, or they couldn't withstand the pursuit of these smiles, some people escaped, and the unlucky ghost who didn't escape was gnawed up by the demon smiley face who chased in." Li Mu said it according to what he thought.

"It makes sense, if the Smiley Demon had disappeared when they came in, we wouldn't have encountered it again now." The old ghost nodded.

"And what was that bloody eye we saw before we came in? It was really an eye, not a strange eye like a smiley face. Lao Meng suddenly said again.

"I don't know, there's no record of this on the scales, and that eye shouldn't have belonged here in the first place, or the people who came in earlier. Brought in from the outside, or chased them in. Li Mu groaned.

The three of them stopped talking, and Li Mu moved forward while sprinkling incense ashes on the ground. The incense ash was scattered on the ground, and those smiling faces suddenly disappeared as if they had been bitten by a snake.

There is really not much incense ash, and Li Mu doesn't know how long this passage is, and he doesn't dare to sprinkle more, so he scatters a small piece every other distance, just enough for them to jump over and gain a foothold.

Walked for seven or eight hours. When there was only a small half of the incense ash left, the scene in front of several people suddenly lit up, and a huge hollow appeared in front of everyone. There is red and green light in the hollow, although it is not very bright, but it is still enough to illuminate the surrounding scenery.

Li Mu walked to the entrance of the cave and looked into the huge hollow, but he was shocked and stayed there speechless at all.

Old Meng and Old Ghost came over to take a look. It's all full of shock. Like Li Mu, they all stayed there.

The whole cavity is probably thousands of meters high, and a huge ancient tree grows in the hollow, and the crown of the ancient tree is almost like a big umbrella that covers the sky and the sun, towering in the hollow.

The red and green brilliance came from the ancient tree, and the body of the ancient tree was the same as an ordinary tree, but the meridians in it were like the blood vessels of the human body crawling all over the tree, and it was clearly visible like a network of blood vessels. And those meridians are all green, shining with green brilliance.

And above the huge ancient tree. There were many little doll-like fruits, and each fruit had a blood-colored smiling face on it, exactly the same as what Li Mu and the others had seen before.

This giant tree, which is thousands of meters high, is much taller than any skyscraper on earth, and the crown of the tree does not know how big it is, and it is full of white little doll-like fruits, with that blood-colored smiling face, I don't know how many, and the red light is emanating from the little doll's blood-colored smiling face.

"Oh my god, it turns out that the blood-colored smiling face came from the fruit of this strange giant tree, how many must there be, and I can't count them in the tens of thousands, right?" Lao Meng said with a shocked face.

"Someone." The old ghost suddenly drew his weapon and pointed in a direction vigilantly, and Li Mu and Lao Meng also immediately entered the battle state, and they all pulled out their weapons.

I saw that on the stone wall outside the cave, which was coiled around the hollow mountain wall, a strange thing was lying less than five hundred meters away from them, making a very ugly hoarse cry, and it was coming towards them like a snake.

It's just that the thing climbs very slowly, Li Mu and they looked at it for a while, the old ghost's eyes were very sharp, and he shouted: "It's Ethan's bastard." ”

Li Mu and Lao Meng took a closer look, ran closer to take a look, and saw where Ethan was climbing, the mountain rocks under him were already crowded with those terrifying blood-colored smiling faces, and even his star armor was full of those blood-colored smiling faces, so he looked like a terrifying monster covered with blood-colored smiling faces, but the star armor was not damaged in the slightest, but he was screaming and wailing weakly on the ground.

Li Mu and the three of them couldn't help but shudder when they saw Ethan's appearance, they could imagine the terrifying and tragic situation of being swallowed by a blood-colored strange face under Ethan's star armor.

Li Mu sprinkled a little incense ash on Ethan's body, and the smiling faces on and around him suddenly receded like a tide, and the star armor on Ethan's body also returned to its original appearance, but a large amount of fresh water suddenly oozed out of it, and he didn't know what his body was bitten into inside the star armor.

Ethan's eyes were full of pain and despair, and when he saw Li Mu and the three of them clearly, he laughed like a crow, and said in a voice mixed with pain, as if from hell: "You didn't die, haha, but it doesn't matter, soon you will taste the same pain as me, and that pain will definitely make you unforgettable for the rest of your life." ”

"Damn, we are kind enough to save you, and you still want to curse us, Lao Tzu will send you to hell now." Lao Meng drew his weapon and was about to understand Ethan.

Li Mu and the old ghost grabbed him: "You kill him now, just to help him get free." ”

A trace of pain flashed in Ethan's eyes that twitched because of extreme pain, and Lao Meng reacted and snorted: "Yes, killing you now is cheaper for you, you fucking dare to pit us, how can you let you die so easily." ”

Ethan lay on the ground unable to move at all, but his face was full of distortion and pain, and he yelled in a little frenzy, "Kill me...... Kill me...... Why don't you kill me......"

"Answer us a few questions, and we'll get you on your way." Li Mu didn't waste any time, and immediately asked after confirming that Ethan heard what he said, "What about the others, why are you the only one here?" ”

Ethan just wanted to seek relief now, and when he heard Li Mu's question, he immediately replied without hesitation: "Except for Tyreg and Lya, everyone else died in the passage, and I don't know where they went." ”

"How could you not know, since you came out with them, why did you end up like this alone?" Li Mu asked again.

"I thought I was a hunter, but I didn't expect that I was just a decoy, the three of us got out of the passage and were attacked by these weird smiling faces, that bastard of Tyreg injured me, made a lot of wounds on my body and threw them here, and then he and LÊa took advantage of these smiling faces and walked away, I just know that they are going down the road, I really don't know where they went...... I've told you everything you want to know...... Kill me...... Kill me......" At the end, Ethan was almost roaring.

Li Mu only found out at this time that there was still a sound of biting inside his star armor, it turned out that there were already many smiling faces in his star armor, and the incense ash was sprinkled outside, only driving away the smiling faces outside, but the inside was still there, eating his body all the time.

"Send him on his way." Li Mu sighed lightly.

Although Lao Meng and the old ghost hated him for betraying him, but he had already ended up like this, there was no need to plan anything, Lao Meng directly cut off his head with a knife, so that he didn't have to suffer so much.

Ethan's head fell, his eyes slowly closed, and a smile appeared on his face, which seemed to have a sense of relief, but against the backdrop of the strange blood-colored smiling faces that stirred around, it was obviously extremely weird.

"Let's go." Li Mu's expression was a little solemn, this place was much weirder than he imagined, the blood-colored smiling face and the terrifying giant tree were all incomprehensible existences.

Looking at the huge ancient tree, as well as the white and tender fruits that looked like little dolls on it, Li Mu actually thought of the ginseng fruit tree in Journey to the West, but the ginseng fruit tree is the treasure of the fairy family, also known as the grass and the pill, and eating it can prolong life and lift the sun. However, this ancient tree here is like a magic tree in hell, giving birth to so many smiling faces of demon fruits that eat human flesh and drink human blood, and I don't know how this tree was grown, how it grows so huge, and how it ingests nutrients and grows in this dark underground cave.

"Shall we go up or down?" Lao Meng asked in a humming voice.

Ethan said they were going down, but it wasn't right, and if we went down, wouldn't we be closer to the weird old tree? Kid Issana can't be lying to us, is he? Lao Meng looked down, although there was a green and red light shining on the ancient tree, but the light was not bright, it looked a little hazy, and the position of the root of the tree below was hazy and black, as if a huge monster was crawling under the ancient tree.

"Probably not, what good is Ethan tricking us in, if we catch up with Terreg, maybe we can help him get revenge." The old ghost said.

"He's not lying, Tyreg and LÊa, I'm afraid he's really going down." Li Mu looked at the mountain road that circled the mountain wall and frowned and said: "Things seem to be a little wrong, Terreg they don't have incense ash, only Ethan attracts those smiling faces, no matter whether they go up or down, they can't escape the pursuit of these smiling faces, there are too many smiling faces here, but they are not dead, this is really strange, unless they have something else on them that can deal with these weird smiling faces." ”

"It's unlikely, isn't it? We don't know what the hell these smiling faces are, how can they be ready to deal with these smiling faces......" Lao Meng suddenly froze in the middle of speaking, slapped his thigh, and shouted: "Damn, it was originally like this, fuck, originally Terreg, they already knew about it." ”

"Yes, it's likely that they have some kind of relationship with the first people to enter here, so they have long known that they will encounter these strange ancient trees and smiling faces here, and they have been prepared for a long time." Li Mu said with a cold face. (To be continued......)
