Chapter 198: Zombies? (4000)

Wu Liang was a little curious, how did Yu Ji judge that the strange tree in front of him was "Yunyang".

All he knew about "Yunyang", at least so far, he hadn't found anything in common between the two, but Yu Ji seemed to have decided that this strange tree was "Yunyang", did he know some information that Wu Liang didn't know?

"Old man, why do you judge that this tree is Yunyang?"

Wu Liang asked.

"This ...... The old man is also from an ancient book, which has an introduction to 'Yunyang', it is said that this tree can hook people's souls, and the people who are hooked by the soul are left with an unconscious body, even if they go farther, they will eventually be guided by the soul to return to the tree and fall asleep for a long time, and finally become one with 'Yunyang'. ”

Yu Ji called for a long time and found that "Yunyang" did not react, and finally turned around and explained to Wu Liang, "It is said that this tree also has another name, called 'Thousand Corpses Wood', although this tree is extremely rare, but when each 'Yunyang' was found, there were hundreds of corpses under the tree, hence the name." ”

"The old man saw the actions of Yang Wanli and the soldier, and saw that there were countless corpses here, these are all the same as the records about 'Yunyang', so he guessed from this."

"The ancient book also said that when you see Yunyang, don't try to escape, it will unconsciously seduce the soul of the bitter master, that is, the body escapes, and the soul remains here, and the bitter master will eventually come back."

"The only way to survive is to chant the name of 'Yunyang', hearing your call, if Yunyang responds, it means that it has felt your sincerity and promised to let you go......"

Speaking of this, Yu Ji's face was very ugly, as if he had already escaped the catastrophe, and said, "The old man called it for a long time, but it ignored it, how is this good, you should also shout together, maybe there is a glimmer of life!" ”

"This ......"

Yu Ji's statement was a little different from what Wu Liang knew, so Wu Liang subconsciously asked, "If Yunyang hears our call, how should he respond to us before agreeing to let us go?" ”

"As far as the old man knows, if Yunyang also responds to the word 'Yunyang' to us, it will let us go."

Yu Ji said solemnly, "Come and call for a few times to try, this may be our only life, don't be careless!" ”

Hearing this, Wu Liang was stunned again.

Finally found common ground, can this Yunyang really be able to speak humanly?

I always feel weird......

Of course, in comparison, Wu Liang is still more willing to believe Yu Ji's statement, because Yu Ji said more details than in "Hug Puzi", and some things can also be correct.

This shows that the statement about Yunyang that Yu Ji knows is very likely to come from the same source as "Hug Puzi".

However, it is debatable whether these accounts are entirely true...... Historical inheritance is sometimes like a "game of communication", if the records at the source are not only problematic, then it will only become more and more mysterious, and the more it is transmitted, the more it deviates from the facts.

So after thinking for a while, Wu Liang asked again: "Not to mention us, is there any mention in the ancient books that the old gentleman has read about how to save the people who were hooked by Yunyang?" ”

That's what they're here for.

According to Yu Ji, from now on, Yang Wanli and the soldier will sleep here, and finally become one with "Yunyang".

As for how to become one.

Wu Liang and the others have already seen the fate of those corpses, they should be lying under the "Yunyang" honestly, waiting for its rhizomes to spread over, completely absorbing the body tissues in their bodies as nutrients, and finally turning into a shriveled corpse.

But.

In the end, people die first, and then the rhizomes slowly grow back.

Or the rhizome entangles the living and feeds them to death.

That's not easy to say.

Wu Liang is more inclined to the former, because at least so far, the "Yunyang" that Wu Liang has seen is just a big tree, not a hand monster that can control his rhizome and perform strenuous movements at will.

"This old man can't talk about it......"

Yu Ji wrinkled an old face, and finally shook his head a little helplessly, "But since they have been hooked by 'Yunyang', 'Yunyang' will not return their souls, even if we forcibly take these two people out, it will only take away the bodies of the two, without the soul, I am afraid they will not wake up again, right?" Besides, if this move angers 'Yunyang', I am afraid that it will not let us go, and we will not escape death......"

"In that case......

Wu Liang felt that the more Yu Ji said, the more mysterious he became, the more suspicious he became, but after thinking about it, he still made a more compromise decision, "Let's call 'Yunyang' a few times each of us to see if it will respond to us, how about it?" ”

Wu Liang never believed that this big tree could make human words, and he didn't believe that it could really hook people's souls.

But seeing that what Yu Ji said was true, and Dian Wei and Bai Jingjing seemed to be listening carefully, and even their faces were more or less worried.

Wu Liang still decided to make a small attempt to follow Yu Ji's words.

If "Yunyang" really responded, Wu Liang would be one head and two big, because this shows that what Yu Ji said may be true, and Wu Liang really doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing.

If "Yunyang" didn't respond, Wu Liang would be more relieved, which is in line with the common sense that Wu Liang knows.

And in this way, according to Yu Ji, it means that "Yunyang" will not let any of them go, and the four of them will have no "way out" at all, and they will naturally no longer have a burden to do anything...... Once a person is barefoot, he will no longer be afraid to wear shoes.

This is not necessarily a bad thing, at least to some extent, it relieves the pressure in the hearts of the other three.

Thereupon.

"Yunyang ——!"

"Yunyang ——!"

"Yunyang ——?"

The three of them shouted at the top of their voices in turn, and everyone waited for a few seconds after shouting, leaving "Yunyang" with plenty of time to react.

Even Yu Ji deliberately shouted twice, wanting to try again if he still had any life.

But it's a pity.

"Yunyang" did not respond to anyone.

"It seems that 'Yunyang' doesn't seem to intend to let any of us go."

Seeing this situation, Wu Liang was already relieved, and looked back at the three of them.

"I can't believe that this evil obstacle is so vicious, and wants to bury all of us here!"

Although Yu Ji, who was "barefoot", was still a little afraid, but at this moment, he really had some more determination as Wu Liang expected, gritted his teeth and scolded viciously, "In this case, what else does the old man have to fear?" The old man will not escape after all, and he must also teach this evil obstacle to know the old man's ways, how can the old man's soul be so easy to hook? ”

"Anyway, let's take a look at how Yang Wanli and the soldier are doing, are they really going to sleep for a long time?"

Bai Jingjing skipped this topic for the time being, and stepped forward to remind at the right time.

Her father was a physician, so he also knew a little about medicine.

Although I am not sure what this "Yunyang" will do to them, I am sure that if a person does not eat or drink, even if he can't sleep for a long time, he will not be able to live for a few days.

This is indeed a problem.

Wu Liang wanted to rescue Yang Wanli and the soldier, and the top priority was to solve this problem.

And if this problem can be solved, Wu Liang and the others will find a way to deal with "Yunyang", and naturally there will be nothing to worry about.

But if you want to do this, you can't avoid "Yunyang".

Until now, Wu Liang's understanding of this strange tree is limited to the record in "Hug Puzi" and Yu Ji's narration, which is obviously not in line with the scientific research spirit of a current archaeologist.

At the very least, we should first make a decision after researching all aspects of the situation.

"Jingjing is right, Dian Wei will sweep the battle for me."

As he spoke, Wu Liang had already stepped forward with the sapper shovel, and under the protection of Dian Wei, he raised the shovel and shoveled it fiercely on the rhizome of a finger that spread over the strange tree.

"Boom!"

The sapper shovel easily cut off the rhizome, making a crunch when it collided with the masonry laid on the ground.

Wu Liang immediately took a few steps back, carefully observing whether the strange tree had any changes because of this.

Outcome.

The strange tree was as calm as ever.

The severed rhizome was also like the rhizome of an ordinary plant, broken when it was broken, and did not roll and twist like an animal.

Seeing this scene, Wu Liang felt a lot more relieved.

It seems that the situation of "chu hand monster" will not appear, this is the luck in misfortune, Wu Liang is most afraid of encountering that kind of inexplicable thing, that thing is really not something that ordinary manpower can solve.

So waited a few seconds.

Still not seeing any movement from the strange tree, Wu Liangcai took Dian Wei forward again, carefully observing the rhizome that was cut off by himself, as well as the incision on the rhizome that he had cut.

Above the incision of the rhizome, a little crystal clear liquid has now oozed.

Wu Liang touched it with a sapper shovel and found that the liquid was slightly viscous, and it didn't look much different from the sap of ordinary plants.

And the composition of the inside is not significantly different from that of ordinary plant rhizomes, in the middle is a milky white root column, with some spiral lines like growth rings, and the outside is a relatively rough rhizome outer skin.

Excluding those hundreds of strange corpses, as well as the evil actions of Yang Wanli and the soldier, just judging from the rhizome that was cut by him, this is completely an ordinary tree, just looking at the thickness of the trunk, the lifespan should be relatively long.

It was at this time.

"Wow!"

Yang Wanli, who was lying next to the tree trunk, and the soldier didn't know why, but they suddenly opened their eyes as if they were stimulated, and then sat up in an instant!

“?!”

This was a situation that Wu Liang had not expected before.

According to Yu Ji, if this strange tree is really "Yunyang", these two people should not wake up again if they fall asleep.

But at this moment, these two people woke up again, why?

Followed by.

Yang Wanli and the soldier slowly turned their heads like puppets, still looking at the direction of Wu Liang and the four of them, still with the same confused and unfamiliar look as before.

"It's ......"

Looking at the expressions of these two people, Wu Liang knew that although they were no longer asleep, they had not escaped from their previous state of evil.

Even, he was a little skeptical.

These two people suddenly sat up at this moment, probably because he cut off the rhizome of the strange tree, so he had some stimulation to the strange tree, and the strange tree couldn't react, so he controlled the two of them to react somewhat.

After all, judging from the previous signs, it is very likely that these two people were affected by the strange tree, or even controlled.

But then again.

Wu Liang cut off the rhizome of the strange tree and then Yang Wanli and the two opened their eyes and sat up, but it took a full ten seconds, if these two people were really controlled by the strange tree, then the reflex nerve of the strange tree was indeed long enough.

"Yang Wanli?"

Wu Liang settled down and tried to call Yang Wanli's name, hoping to wake him up.

And at this moment, Yang Wanli and the soldier had also slowly stood up again, still staring at them intently, not knowing what was brewing at the moment.

The next second.

"Huh!"

Yang Wanli and the soldier's movements were no longer slow, and they suddenly took a big step and rushed towards Wu Liang and the others.

They ran at an extremely fast speed, Mo said that Wu Liang couldn't outrun them, even Dian Wei might not be able to compare with them at the moment.

"Dian Wei, Yang Wanli and that soldier may want to attack us and stop them!"

Wu Liang immediately took two steps back and shouted to Dian Wei in a deep voice.

Although Yang Wanli and the soldier did not have any fierce expressions on their faces, the confusion and strangeness were enough to make Wu Liang make such a judgment.

"They can't get by!"

Seeing this, Dian Wei put away the sapper shovel and blocked in front of Wu Liang and the others with his bare hands.

Obviously, until the last moment, Dian Wei did not want to hurt the lives of the two people.

Wu Liang didn't say anything to stop it, although Yang Wanli and the soldier were menacing, they didn't have weapons in their hands, and under normal circumstances, Dian Wei would not be able to clean up the two of them, or even twenty of them.

The two sides soon went toe-to-toe.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

Under the two sounds, Dian Wei went down with two palms, and easily slapped back the two people who rushed over, and retreated several meters in a row before finally stopping the retreat.

But the two only paused slightly.

immediately rushed up desperately, completely in an undying posture.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

Dian Wei met with two feet again, and once again forced the two to retreat.

It can be seen that Dian Wei actually collected his strength, otherwise with Dian Wei's strange force, a kick in the chest of the two would be able to easily kick their ribs off, and the entire chest cavity would be dented.

But it's not a way to go on like this.

Even if Dian Wei is amazing, there will always be a time when he will exhaust his strength, and if Yang Wanli and that soldier are tireless in this situation, they will eventually force Wu Liang to make a choice.

If so, it would be the opposite of what he wanted on his trip.

But.

Now Yang Wanli and the soldier are as completely conscious as zombies...... Wait a minute!

Corpse?

Wu Liang suddenly thought of something!
