Chapter Thirty-Six: Night Brawl
"I'm back."
"You're finally back, I thought you were scared away."
"How is that possible! I'm just going too far, yes, too far. ”
Natsuki pointed to his old cold legs, "Then don't shake it yet, okay?" ”
"Talent...... No, it's because this thing is too heavy. ”
Xia Mu stepped forward and knocked on what Wei Wei was holding, "What is this?" It feels like a bone-like material. ”
"I don't know, but it's perfect to keep the wind out, digging out of the mud."
Wei Wei put the things he brought on the ground, like a dome that perfectly blocked the wind around him, but the surrounding potholes affected the appearance.
"How does it look like a skull?" Natsuki complained. There was a faint bad guess in my heart, whether this should really be.
[Skull: A bone left behind after the death of a camel. 】
It's so big, it's really a skull, and the thought of sleeping in it tonight makes Natsuki feel a little hairy.
Suddenly he thought of something, "You said this bone was dug out of that quagmire just now?" ”
"Well, what's wrong?"
"I'll go find something to eat." After saying that, Natsuki walked out.
"Hey, don't leave me here." Wei Wei glanced at the sable who was playing on the side, it was not good, and his legs began to shake again.
Natsuki didn't really look for something to eat, but went to the quagmire to look carefully, and he found two huge horns, which were rotten and unshaped, and at the top of the horns, he found what he wanted.
[Bone Grass: Highly poisonous grass, the whole plant can be used as medicine, and has a strong corrosive effect on bones. 】
"Sure enough, I said that the skull doesn't look long, how can it be corroded into that shape, and sure enough, it has grown bone grass."
[Collected successfully!] 】
Under the collection technique, the two strains of Bone Transformation Grass were perfectly collected and collected into the backpack.
After finding the Bone Herb, his father's illness was finally settled, and Natsuki's heart suddenly settled down.
"Strange, how do you feel that when you go out, the whole person is different, as if you have let go of something."
is worthy of being a person of the Jing Evil Division, and his ability to observe words and colors is not comparable to ordinary people.
Natsuki tossed the fish in his hand to him.
"Grilled fish!"
"Tsk, you won't go to the waterhole to fish at night......"
Suddenly, his hand froze, "It can't be the waterhole just now, right?" Does this sable put poison in it when it drinks water? ”
Of course not, because the fish was taken out of the backpack by Natsuki.
"Huhu......" The sable spewed a rough breath in his mouth, very dissatisfied, and he jumped over and bit the fish.
Xia Mu chuckled, "One for each person, there are no more, you can do it yourself." ”
Wei Wei wanted to cry without tears.
……
Natsuki was woken up by a white mink licking. Then he felt a chill all around him, and when he touched the grass around him, his hands were covered with hoarfrost.
He immediately shook Wei Wei awake.
It's autumn, but the temperature hasn't yet reached the time for frost. And it was so quiet tonight.
As soon as he opened a crack in the huge skull on his head, a soft mist slipped through the gap, and in addition, there was the glow of phosphorus fire.
Spirits are floating out of the inconspicuous waterhole, the ghosts are the spirits of the dead, but they are not the deceased, but another creature, inextricably linked to the original, but not to be confused, some of the ghosts may still retain the memories of their lives, and some only know about violent killing.
The strength of the ghost can be directly seen on their soul body, the taller and more solidified the soul body, the stronger the strength, the ghost leader that Xia Mu and Wei Wei killed on the swamp before is two meters away, and the body is as bright as a thirty-watt light bulb. But none of the things that floated out of the waterhole were any worse than the ghost leader.
The behavior of these ghosts is extremely strange, it is clear that Xia Mu and the two of them are standing beside them, with the hatred of ghosts for living beings, I am afraid that they will not rush up a long time ago, but now it is as if they have not seen them at all, and they are flying past them in a hurry, as if they are rushing to the field.
"Tut-tut, it's my eyes, and these things? Two big living people are standing here, and they can't see? Isn't there a female ghost in front of you? ”
"What are you kidding, ghosts don't distinguish between men and women." Natsuki turned his head to look at the white mink, whose eyes were glowing with purple.
It seems that this little mink is capable, and yes, if you don't have this ability, you can't live in this area.
"Let's go over and have a look."
"Are you kidding? It's not funny at all, we are Jing Evil Division, it's not brainless, so many ghosts, I'm afraid they can directly tear us to pieces. ”
"Aren't you curious? With so many powerful ghosts coming together and not fighting, what are they going to do when they run so fast? You don't want to know at all. ”
Wei Wei touched his chin, "Okay, but let me state in advance, I'm not brainless, I'm just curious." ”
Not to mention Wei Wei's pitiful self-esteem, Xia Mu picked up the white sable and chased after him.
The swamp was dangerous, but the swamp at night was even more dangerous, but fortunately these ghosts opened a way for them in advance, and the cold aura of their bodies caused a layer of ice to form a layer of ice everywhere they went, and suddenly the muddy and bumpy road became a smooth road. The quagmire trapped them, too.
"Look at this."
Wei Wei pointed to a corpse on the side of the road to Xia Mu.
The corpse was shriveled all over, like bacon that had been dried for ten months, and it was vaguely recognizable that he was a king of mountains and forests before he was born.
Something like that they had already seen when they first entered the swamp.
"I thought the hanging tree didn't see us, but who knew it had been with us for so long. This guy doesn't have a tailgating problem. ”
"How do you know he's here for us?" Natsuki asked rhetorically.
"Not because of us? Could it be the ghosts whose bodies are gone? ”
Natsuki didn't refute, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong, the Hanging Corpse Tree was not a patient monster, and it was impossible to follow them for so many days.
Not far away, Natsuki saw a silent battle, tens of thousands of corpses of all kinds kept pouring up from the sky, the ground, and the underground, swarming towards the ghosts.
Dozens of wraiths drew their weapons from the void and rushed forward without saying a word, no flesh and blood, only silent fighting.
The number of corpses was so huge that dozens of ghosts poured into it couldn't even make a splash. And the corpses did not fight with them at all, only to break through the line.
Just when Natsuki thought they couldn't stop it, a huge three-headed monster poked its head out of the ground, raised its front hooves and stepped on the ground. Everywhere they went, all the corpses were frozen on the spot.
The addition of the three-headed monster has once again plunged the situation into an anxious situation.
"It's strange, why haven't you seen the hanging tree for so long?".
A thought appeared in both of them at the same time.
"Sound from east to west!"
