Chapter 3: The Eyeless Nightmare Comes
I heard the old man say that the people of heaven are the people who know their fate the most, and they often get the power they crave the most directly from their own souls!
And at this time, deep in my heart, there is a pair of inky black pupils born, my subconscious tells me that it is a living being, but there is only a pair of ghost pupils that can hook people's hearts with great fear and no body, it is called the eyeless nightmare, it is a relatively unique dead spirit between heaven and earth, and it is also my first-class heavenly gift, which is only recorded in the textbooks of the village education house!
The Eyeless Nightmare, born of me, is destined to die with me.
In the early winter, the air is cold, the earth is frosty, and the land is as unfair as the sky overhead.
Bo Cairen died without a place to be buried, not to mention that he was just a dispensable slave, even if a villager with an ordinary identity was killed in the wild, the people here would not stop and dig a pit for him, according to Mr. Guo's explanation: "And the spirit of nature recovered him, born in heaven and earth will return to heaven and earth, what's wrong!"
We kept heading east, and my father told me when he was still alive that there was a beautiful lake in the woods, and at the bottom of the lake lay a huge old turtle, no one could tell its exact age, and it was said to have been born before our ancestors in the Moon Village.
The ragged slaves all walked with their heads shrunk, and only a few people led by Mu Bai had straight waists, especially Mu Bai himself. But under my careful observation, I noticed a detail, that is, Mu Bai's left and right steps were slightly unbalanced, but his feet were obviously not injured?
So I deliberately leaned closer to Mu Bai and peeped at his heels, and sure enough, there was something in his shoes, not a stone that I accidentally brought in while walking, but a touch of green, some kind of plant!
Due to today's special purpose, the route of Tiger Jiuxuan is a safe place for the past experience, to avoid conflicts with predators as much as possible, Bo Cairen was infected by corpse insects is already an accident, and the rest of the road is safe.
The forest is quiet, the trees are towering, and there are many creatures living in the shadows of the intersecting branches and leaves, and the strange appearance is a completely new chain of creatures, and I am amazed everywhere I look as a traverser.
There is a hundred-eyed frog, dressed in resin armor, when it closes its eyes motionless like a big stake, only when it hunts, it will open its back eyes, the more hungry it is, the more eyes it opens, and the hundreds of backs make people dare not look directly!
This forest area has always been guarded by the breath of the white-scaled old turtle in the turtle lake, perhaps because the ruler has a gentle temperament, and even the younger brothers with him are not very aggressive, and the team is only slightly relaxed.
Mu Bai and a few people surrounded a fallen rotting tree, broke the bark and ate the rotting ant chrysalis, and he beckoned me over, I hesitated for a few seconds before walking up to him, even if he was half-squatting, he could be eye-catching with me.
"Pot lid, this is a good thing, your father used to be like this!" "The pot lid is the milk name of "me", and only a few close elders will continue to call me this way when I grow up, Mu Bai actually took the initiative to mention "my" father, isn't this revealing "my" wound!
But even if I inherited the memory of the original owner, at most I watched a few extremely real 4D movies, and I didn't have the feeling of soul intersection, so I didn't show much pain of losing my father for a while, and when I reacted and pretended to mourn, Mu Bai's gaze had become subtle.
It's false for me to say that I'm not nervous at the moment.,Generally, the soul piercing text writes the familiar people around the protagonist to death or write idiotically.,Or write the protagonist as a natural actor.,Actually, as soon as you get started, you're all panicked!
I took the white and tender tofu lumpy rot ant eggs with a weak heart, the entrance was sweet and slightly fishy, the taste was delicate and silky, I still pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not speak, so as not to be exposed more deeply, and looked down to see the dense gray rot ants running wildly, like my complicated feelings.
Turtle Lake is more beautiful than I and my original owner of the flesh imagined, and we are both witnessing this "sapphire" in the forest for the first time. The surface of the lake is blue, the breeze ripples, and the water ripples in all directions converge towards the center, where a huge lotus leaf arches a few half-open blue lotus flowers.
"Whoa. ”
Hu Jiu arranged for the two of them to stand guard, and he took the lead to go to the lake to fetch water to drink, and everyone else who was thirsty did the same, and when he got up and cast his cold gaze on our group of slaves, I suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"This time I want to take the longevity turtle saliva, and only this white-scaled turtle near Youyue Village is the most suitable for longevity and the easiest to get. Mu Bai, you pick a few people to take the half-star beast blood pill given by Yao Shi Hu to go down to the lake to lure the old turtle ashore, we are waiting for an opportunity to ambush on the shore, remember that the beast blood pill can't be lost!" Hu Jiu said the last sentence with a slightly unnatural expression, there were concerns, there were concerns, and there were concerns, as if he was very worried about the half-star beast blood pills.
Half-star refers to the level of non-special (such as living and undead) heavenly things, and refers to items with a five-level effect, which is already a rare thing in a novice village with a ninth-level cap such as Youyue Village.
Mu Bai did not disobey Hu Jiu's task of attracting monsters, and began to call names, "Yougu, Dashan, Ah Zhong and Yang Ming, you warm up and prepare, and follow me to the lake." "Yes, Brother Mu!" The other three all responded obediently, without the slightest complaint, but I was half cold when I heard my name!
"Mu, Uncle Mu, I don't know much about water!" In order to save myself, I boldly lied, in fact, the original owner and I myself are very good at swimming. As soon as these words came out, they attracted many side glances, and the young man named Ah Zhong had a strong look of disdain, and clearly looked down on my greed for life and fear of death.
And those who were not originally selected all had different expressions, although they knew that the old turtle was stable and not easy to provoke, and it was naturally their turn for the first batch of people to go into the water without physical strength, but they still held the luck of success in one trip, especially those who were experienced in hunting, but they knew how dangerous it was under the calm lake on the surface!
Mu Bai patted me on the shoulder, and said to me with a seemingly encouraging look: "Don't be afraid of Yang Ming, you have grown up, there are some things you have to face, don't stay too far away from me later!" After speaking, he turned around and walked towards Hu Jiu, it should be to get the monster bait half-star beast blood pill.
The second time, this is the second time that Mu Bai has called me by my name, I heard the estrangement, he has begun to doubt my identity! I am about to be exposed so soon! This is simply the best time-traveler in the world, the plot is starting to become a mess, and it is getting more and more out of my control and prediction!
With great apprehension, I simply warmed up, took a few deep breaths, and used my feet to probe the temperature of the lake, which was cold and a little heavy, and the bottom of the lake was dark, as if something terrible would drag me down at any time and completely swallow me up!
Before entering the water, Mu Bai gave each of the four of us a scarlet pill, but it was the size of a soybean, he carefully wrapped each of us in a strip of cloth and tied it tightly around our necks, his hand crossed my collarbone, very rough, "Follow me later!" and repeated the previous instructions, only to me, and the eyes were meaningful, this is a crazy hint!
"Hmm!" I nodded reluctantly, after all, my life matters, as long as I can survive, no matter what kind of identity I have, even if I am considered an alien evil, I am willing!
Entering the water, suffocating, the world became quieter and darker all of a sudden, the water was so cold that it pierced the skin, and they swam in formation, which was able to attract the old turtles in a larger area. Mu Bai is in the middle, he is a God-given person, even half of his strength can beat Hu Jiu, so that he can help us at any time.
I was very afraid of such a deep and dark water, my feet did not touch the ground and my head did not reach the sky, giving people a sense of helplessness without support, and my nerves were so tight that even the passing swimming fish made me frequently turn my head and be vigilant.
In the end, I simply summoned the Eyeless Nightmare Talisman, perhaps only this pair of ghost pupils in this world can give me a little peace of mind. My mind was calm, I looked at the beast blood pill on my neck that was constantly emitting blood and red medicine, thinking that it should be an excellent medicine for strengthening the body, but in today's scene, it has become a "fierce poisonous medicine" that urges people's lives, alas, it really responds to that sentence: medicine does not distinguish between good and evil, only its intentions!
While I was thinking wildly, I inadvertently glanced to the left, and suddenly I was full of excitement, pointing at the water behind Ah Zhong and screaming, because I saw a pair of terrifying green vertical pupils flickering and flickering, attacking Ah Zhong at an astonishing speed!
