Chapter 42: Twisted Plants
Yu Sheng immediately pounced, picked up the green plants and dug the soil, but he couldn't even see the shadow of the child.
"What's weird...... Mountain Spirit Ground Monster? ”
After losing the blood mist, he seemed to have turned back into an ordinary person, and he couldn't detect any supernatural abilities at all.
The fog in the mountains is getting thicker, visibility is already less than a few meters, and the sun is rarely seen at all during this season, obscured by thick clouds and fog.
Yu Sheng was wearing an autumn coat, and his shoes were already soaked, and he was shivering from the cold after losing the influence of the blood mist, and the temperature here was probably only a few degrees.
He took out the small box from his pocket and took out an old oil lamp.
"I can't believe that I still need to use your ......" Yu Sheng smiled helplessly, ready to light the ghost lamp.
But before he could move, a pair of green palms suddenly stretched out from his feet, grabbed his ankles, and dragged him into the dirt.
The ghost lantern fell on the green field next to it and rolled several times.
"Pain...... Cold ......"
I don't know how long it took, but I got up with my head covered for the rest of my life, my whole body was extremely sore, and my clothes were soaked, cold and painful.
When he opened his eyes, it was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.
"It's ...... Dirt, where the hell is this? He stood up and groped around, his brain racing: "It seems that someone grabbed my leg just now, could it be that kid......"
From entering Lijia Village to now, he has not had a clue, but he has already been attacked, and this is the first time he has encountered such a bad situation.
"Still can't release the Blood Mist...... Yu Sheng tried to summon the Blood Mist again, but there was still no movement.
He patted the wet dirt on his hands, wiped it on his body, and took out the small box.
In this situation, the few supernatural items in the box are his last reliance.
"The ghost lantern seems to have been lost when I was pulled down, and the trouble is ......" Yu Sheng frowned, in this case, the importance of the ghost lantern is highlighted, not only to illuminate and save my life, but also to detect danger in advance.
Taking out the metal mobile phone, Yu Sheng turned on the flashlight function, and under the illumination of the light, he finally saw the surrounding situation clearly.
It seems to be an underground cavern, the diameter of the cave is about enough to accommodate an adult, the surrounding soil is very damp, faintly oozing water, it is reasonable to say that this kind of place should be very dull, and it will be difficult to breathe, but it does not feel that way at all, and it is even much fresher than the outside air.
As soon as the light appeared, a slight noise was heard not far away, and it quickly disappeared.
Yu Sheng's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately pointed the light of his mobile phone at that place, and found countless green rhizomes, he hurriedly ran over with his mobile phone.
"What kind of plant is this rhizome ......"
Those green rhizomes actually moved, and as soon as his hand touched it, he climbed up along his hand, neither fast nor slow, if it was allowed to continue, I believe it would not be long before it would crawl all over his body for the rest of his life.
Feeling the pressure on his hand getting stronger and stronger, Yu Sheng hurriedly retracted his hand.
But those strange green rhizomes clinged to him, bending and pounced on him.
"Like an enlarged creeper......" Yu Sheng took a few steps back, keeping a distance from those weird green rhizomes.
He didn't stay here for long, following the light of his phone to explore the depths of the cave.
Those strange green rhizomes can occasionally be seen on the damp cave walls, but fortunately, they are not very aggressive, and they can be avoided with a little precautions, and I don't know how he feels less and less cold, and the clothes on his body are obviously still wet.
Because he paid too much attention to the situation around him, he ignored his own situation for the rest of his life, and all the places that were touched by those rhizomes had turned green, but he didn't know it......
"Huhu...... Whew......"
After walking all the way for more than ten minutes, he was even a little out of breath for the rest of his life, but he still didn't gain anything, it seemed that he couldn't walk here, and it was exactly the same scene when he walked around, and he even felt a little dizzy inexplicably.
Maybe it was because of the depths of the earth, or maybe it was due to fatigue, but his whole body had turned green by this time, even the wet clothes on his body.
"Why is it getting less and less cold, am I going in the wrong direction......" Yu Sheng wiped the sweat on his forehead, and found that his hands had turned green all over, so frightened that he almost threw away his mobile phone.
"This ...... What's going on?! ”
Although a little shocked, he quickly calmed down and looked at his body.
"Even the clothes are dyed green, probably from those weird rhizomes, some kind of pigment?" He wiped the skin off his arm and found that it wasn't that simple.
Then he unscrewed off his soaked clothes, but the water stains that fell on the ground were transparent, obviously not the pigment on the green plants.
"I haven't felt any discomfort yet, which means that it's not very harmful, or even harmful......" Yu Sheng thought about it, and suddenly thought of the smooth green kid just now.
Isn't my current situation very similar to him? Could it be that the kid wasn't some mountain spirit monster, but also an ordinary person who was affected by these green rhizomes?
This Lijia Village is really hidden in the fog, and even now I haven't seen the reason......
Yu Sheng planned to contact the Paranormal Society, but the call always failed due to the poor signal underground.
He had no choice but to give up the idea, get up again, and keep going.
The dark and damp tunnels are dark and deep, and the phone still has little power left, and the situation is becoming more and more serious.
However, the expression on Yu Sheng's face became more and more numb, and even his consciousness became dull, and he even had a brief amnesia, forgetting who he really was and what he was doing......
"I have to get out of here quickly...... Yu Sheng woke up suddenly, pulled out of that strange state, broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately quickened his pace.
Fortunately, the effort paid off, and after walking around a corner, he suddenly became brighter, and the diameter of the cave became larger, but when he looked inside, his eyes suddenly shrank.
Countless green rhizomes are intertwined and agitated, like a towering tree that can move, and like the tentacles of many octopuses, which is a little shocking to look at.
There were also countless cavities in the walls of the cave in the distance, just big enough for one person, and this was clearly the intersection of these narrow tunnels.
There are many small holes above the cave, through which light from the outside spills down.
"I'm afraid this thing is the root of all this......" Yu Sheng looked at the strange plant in front of him with a solemn face.
The green-covered child quietly appeared behind him.
