Chapter 249: Strange Vine (Medium)

The rattans are tightly entangled with each other, and the middle can be said to be impermeable, and when everyone arrived yesterday, they can still find a gap between the rattans, and when they look at it today, there is not even a half-inch gap between the rattans and the rattans, just like a green wall. Path? Where else is there a path, now this vine sea can't even look through.

"I believe in you." Wei Changfeng comforted Zheng Kejin and said, "There was no such dense rattan yesterday, this must have grown again overnight." ”

Li Quan coughed and was about to speak, but he heard An Ran shouting: "The last general asks for an order!" Let the last general lead the army to cut another path! It turned out that Enron didn't have the size of the merit on the way, but now that there is an opportunity, although this merit is not a big feat, it is more or less a strength, so that he doesn't dare to speak when he listens to the other generals talking about what they have done, so he hurriedly asks for an order.

Li Quan saw that An Ran grabbed the words again, so he had to shut up again.

Wei Changfeng pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "It's okay." You have to get out of the way quickly, and we will follow you in today, and see by the water, and then tomorrow, if we do this again, we will open the way again for the soldiers to pass. ”

"Order!" An Ran agreed, and immediately organized his men to open the way, he divided the two hundred people into ten teams, each team of twenty people, lined up in a horizontal line of four people, each person only drove for a moment before retreating, but each of the road openers had to do their best, but those who were slow were immediately whipped.

This trick really worked, and I saw a small path stretching forward, and the generals slowly followed, although they couldn't go fast, they didn't have to stop and wait. In front, the soldiers were sweating profusely, and in the back, several generals were walking in the carriage, and the carriage had to be thrown outside first.

Li Quan looked around, saw that everyone was speechless for a while, and was determined to say what he wanted to say since yesterday, but he suddenly heard exclamations from in front of him, followed by a few laughs and An Ran's reprimand.

In front, the four soldiers retreated sweatingly, they were so tired that they couldn't hold the axes in their hands, and their wheezing voices were extremely thick.

Wei Changfeng beckoned to a soldier and asked, "What's going on?" ”

The soldier replied, "A rattan suddenly sprang out of the blue, and it startled me, and I lost my axe, so everyone was laughing." ”

Wei Changfeng frowned, thinking to himself that this soldier didn't know what he was saying, and the rattan could still "suddenly burst out"?

Li Quan was shocked! He hurriedly asked, "You said that the rattan suddenly burst out, but did you say that the rattan grew extremely fast?" ”

The soldier replied, "I can't tell you this, it's like ...... It's as if they're really on their way. ”

"I'll take a look!" Li Quan hurriedly shouted.

Wei Changfeng saw that Li Quan's expression was urgent, although he didn't know why it was so serious, he also knew that it was not good, and hurriedly followed Li Quan to squeeze forward. The two of them had only walked a few steps before they saw the soldiers who had opened the way in front of them. In front of me, rattan was constantly being cut down under the axe, but on the ground, many rattans were crawling towards the road at an extremely alarming speed!

That's right, it's crawling. It is like a snake moving slowly, and the naked eye can clearly see the rattan constantly crawling towards the middle of the road, although the speed is not fast, but it is definitely the speed of animal walking, not the speed of plant growth.

"Retreat!" Li Quan suddenly shouted.

In front, An Ran was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Wei Changfeng had already shouted loudly: "All retreat!" Fast! ”

Everyone turned around and ran out, only ran a few steps, only to hear a rustling sound, countless rattans in all directions like countless snakes circled, only to hear a scream, a soldier has been entangled by a rattan, seven or eight rattans immediately entangled, in a blink of an eye has wrapped him firmly, those rattans quickly secreted a large amount of white wax, and after a while the soldier was sealed, and countless thin whiskers stretched out of the wax, and the flesh of the soldier's body turned into liquid under these white wax, It was sucked in by these whiskers like water, and in a short time, it had turned into a clothed bone.

"Let's go, let's go!" An Ran finally reacted at this time, everyone pushed me and squeezed, desperately running out along the path, around the path, countless rattans continued to stretch into the road, the path narrowed rapidly, everyone pulled out their swords, while chopping these rattans and ran out, at this time no one cared about others, no matter who it was, just tripped or blocked by rattans, there were countless rattans wrapped around immediately, and in a blink of an eye, it became a skeleton sealed in ash.

When An Ran rushed out of the path, the rattan behind him had been closed, and the whole path turned into a sea of rattan again, one of An Ran's legs just stepped out of the path, and his back tightened, and the other leg that fell behind had been entangled in the rattan, and then his body was pulled towards the path, he screamed, desperately trying to grab something, but what was there to catch here?

Just as he was in a hurry, Wei Changfeng had already rushed over from the side, his sword fell, and a sword cut off the rattan that was pulling An Ran's leg, and An Ran pounced forward to gnaw the ground.

Soldiers had already pulled up Enron on the side, and the surviving people retreated one after another, away from this terrible rattan.

Everyone was shocked, but they heard a person behind them shouting: "Where is General Wei?" What about General Wei?! ”

Wei Changfeng heard Tong Haoran's voice, was shocked, and hurriedly replied: "I'm here!" What's wrong? ”

The crowd was divided, Tong Haoran rushed straight over, his face was full of panic, and when he saw Wei Changfeng standing there safely, he suddenly threw himself into Wei Changfeng's arms and shouted, "It's okay for you!" I couldn't help crying as I spoke.

Wei Changfeng was embarrassed, and at the same time, he was infinitely moved in his heart.

In the past few days, he and Tong Haoran have not spoken to each other, Tong Haoran has also deliberately separated from Wei Changfeng, there has been an estrangement between the two, just before Tong Haoran fell behind, and suddenly heard that the rattan hurt people, I don't know if Wei Changfeng quit safely, he was in a hurry, and he actually lost his temper in public, but with this cry, the estrangement between the two dissolved.

Wei Changfeng patted Tong Haoran on the shoulder and signaled Tong Haoran to calm down. Tong Haoran was in a hurry for a while, and he was also very embarrassed, his face was flushed, he turned around and said, "I'll wash my face", and left in a hurry.

Wei Changfeng really wanted to go directly to the past at this time and have a good talk with Tong Haoran, but now, there is only a piece of paper between him and Tong Haoran, which is the parchment map. It's just that now is not the time to pierce this layer of paper.

Wei Changfeng had to put down Tong Haoran's matter, turned his head and hurriedly formed the team, fortunately, none of the generals were missing, and Li Quan was also safe and sound, but of the two hundred soldiers, only one hundred and fifty people came out, and the other fifty people had already drowned in the sea of vines.

Although there was Tong Haoran's accident, but now this accident is even bigger, and the generals still can't adapt to it for a while.

"W-what is this?" An Ran's face turned pale, and he hurriedly asked.

Everyone went to see Li Quan. Li Quan was walking out of his cart, and he was actually flipping through a book in his hand.

"General Li, at this time, you actually read a book?" Zheng Kejin's tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Li Quan sighed: "Where am I reading idle books, I am looking for the record of this terrible man-eating vine." ”

"This thing is a man-eating vine?" Wei Changfeng asked in surprise.

Li Quan nodded and said, "Not bad." Here, someone has already documented this kind of thing, although it is a little different from what we have seen, but it is also the same cannibalism. ”

Then I looked at this book and said: This book was written by a person who had been to the Western Regions, and it was an adventure in the desert trek in the Western Regions. He was walking on the hot sand dunes. After half a day's trek, he and his companions were exhausted, so they sat down to rest.

After a short rest, one of them suddenly exclaimed, "What's that?" The group looked in the direction of his finger and saw a wriggling mass of green vines in the sand in the distance.

The man stood up curiously and walked over to the green vine. He couldn't help but get closer to look at the green vine, and found that the rattan was slightly gray in the green, the size of an index finger, and the surface was smooth, but the inside was covered with countless barbs.

The green vine suddenly loosened and gradually stretched. Only then did everyone realize that the rattan was wrapped in the corpse of a gerbil. The corpses were dry and white, bloodless.

He was looking at the gerbil's corpse in amazement, but he didn't notice that the green vine had stretched out of the vine and slowly moved towards his feet.

What happened next was horrible. As soon as the green vine touched the tip of the man's toe, it immediately wrapped itself around his foot and hooked it with a barb. Immediately afterwards, the other rattans quickly wound around the man, and in an instant he was wrapped tightly.

The man shouted for help, and the others hurried over. I saw the man struggling desperately, but the more he struggled, the tighter the rattan wrapped, and countless barbs pierced into his body fiercely. Everyone tried their best to help him get out of the green vine, and in the panic, another person was also entangled in one foot by a green vine. It took him a lot of effort to pull his feet. When I looked down, I noticed that there were many blood holes in my feet gushing out.

The cries for help of the people who had been entangled gradually became muffled, and finally only moans of pain remained. Time passed slowly, and the green vine gradually relaxed its entanglement with the man, and gradually stretched, revealing the man's body.

I saw that his body was dry and white, and there was no blood. He's been dead for a long time. Only then did people realize that the animal carcasses that they often saw in the desert turned out to be the leftovers of this green vine. Later, the green vines gathered together again and gradually moved into the distance, and after a while, they disappeared from people's view.

Since then, this green vine has been called "man-eating vine". When people encounter this "man-eating vine", they avoid it from a distance, so as not to get entangled in it and become a victim.

Wei Changfeng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of restraint is there for this thing?" ”

Li Quan shook his head and said, "At least it's not written in this book." ”

Everyone was amazed, but they heard the soldiers shouting, and everyone hurriedly followed the sound, only to see that in the sea of vines, one skeleton after another slowly rose, each wearing the military uniform of the Han army, but it was a soldier who had just fallen into the vine.
