Chapter 404: Human-Faced Lizard

It passed through us, it was half a tree high, its huge body was full of countless faint black gases, it was covered with dense scales, its legs were straight, and a huge tail in the middle was whirring and shaking, and when it turned its face, it saw that the face was full of endless seclusion, and the pupils of the eyes exuded a faint green halo, like ghost fire, they were like lizards, but they were standing, covered in snake scales, dark complexion, and the letter they spit out was particularly slender, and they couldn't see how the face was, and they vaguely felt very similar to the human face.

Lingsheng and I could only be stunned and did not dare to move, for fear that it would detect something wrong and swallow us in one bite, its eyes were full of endless terrible greed, although it had not been eaten by it, but it had clearly felt the strange throbbing, I did not dare to look at it, I could only bow my head, my whole body was already trembling, but after a while, although it was stranded for nearly two minutes, it turned away, and I was glad to have survived a small life.

"What's that?" I asked, cold and afraid.

"It is the evil spirits that look up at that night, they are the undead in this valley Yin Qi, the accumulation of grievances, especially terrifying, if you look at the living, you will be entangled, know what to do alive, and then return to this place to continue to wait." Hu Lingshang said.

"Why is that? In addition, they have already looked at Yun Wen, and they have not seen them entangled, and this area where the black gas lingers, there are only these areas in total, so it can be seen that they can't seem to get out, right, how can they be entangled? I asked.

"That's because the day has not yet come, when the day comes, such as the night of the full moon or when the door of the ghost is wide open, when the yin and yang are in full swing, and the things that imprison them will no longer be used, and they can go out to hunt, and the person who hunts is the one they look at, so then it is the beginning of the entanglement, once they find the living person they want to see, then they will bring it back here in a short time by various means, or eat it wantonly." Lingshang said.

"In other words, they can't go out on weekdays, and only when there are special times, they can go out in time, and they will want to be unfavorable to Yunwen, right?" I asked.

Lingshang nodded.

Yesterday's bonfire party, I deliberately paid attention to the fact that the moon is not yet round, so there should be some time, as for the midyear festival this year, it has also passed, so this is not so anxious for the time being, The situation is much more tolerant than imagined, but the appearance of the lizard man just now really scared me, listening to the meaning of Lingshang, the number of that kind of thing is more than one, thinking that if these things are eyeing Yun Wen, I can't help but get angry.

Therefore, the plan now is to hurry up and complete our current task, so as not to be too hasty to deal with it.

After the thing left, we continued to grope in this gloomy place, and the corpses were everywhere, but what I noticed was that there were wild boars, wild dogs, wild monkeys, wild deer and even wild wolves, wild badgers, etc., but there were no goat bones, I searched around, and almost all the animals that appeared on the island, their skeletons were recognized, but the goats were missing.

After investigating the skeleton, I immediately went to the edge, until I reached the end of the black gas, stretched out my hand to the edge, I could feel the warmth, retracted to the part covered by the black gas, but immediately felt the cold back, it was really weird, I looked around at the edge, the opposite side is the scenery of autumn sunset leaves, but this side is the deep winter world, as if two places and two worlds.

We walked around the circle, and we couldn't understand why this was so, until we saw the strange old tree at the junction, which was beneficial to the two ends of the junction, half on the cold side and half on the warm side, but the strange thing was that it grew unaffected, as if the changes in it were not related to it.

I went to look at the tree, and found that this tree was no different from the usual willows and pines, and even if there were some differences, they were only subtle, and it was the time of the bleak autumn, and its leaves had withered and fallen a lot, but the number of leaves falling from the leaves was not proportional to the branches, but it would be far-fetched to say that it was blown away by the wind, because in this so-called place of captivity, there was no wind at all, and even if there was, it was blocked by this black air, and since just now it only felt the cold on the face, but it was only the feeling brought by those black gases, and it was by no means the wind.

Looking further ahead, there are many of these trees that grow on the edges, basically one every eight or nine steps, and they grow specifically at the intervals, or rather, these black qi can't penetrate the boundary formed by these trees, so we have also found a pattern, these trees can block the invasion of yin qi.

In addition, we also saw a particularly surprising scene, only to see that not far ahead, there are a lot of wild goats, they are wandering around here, bleating, the key is that they shuttle freely at the edge, as if entering no one's land, they don't have any feeling for the black gas at all, as if they don't exist, stop and go, eat and rest, and those black gas even avoid them.

However, although they were not worried, they were a little wary of us, and when they saw us, they looked up at us and watched our every move.

I couldn't help but think of the goat bones that were missing from the animal bones just now. Isn't it the answer we need when they are so close but unharmed, the other animals that are far away but piled up with bones, and the goats as if they were all right.

Looking a little farther away, I saw that many of them were eating the fallen leaves of these trees, and I seemed to understand a little.

"Trees and sheep may be the answer we are looking for this time, and this is what the evil spirits are afraid of." I said.

"Zhou Lang is right, but even if we know this, what should we do?" Lingshang asked.

"Before that, you have to understand one more thing, you said that when the great yin is over, these evil spirits will go out to hunt, which means that even if there is a barrier at that time, it will be unstoppable because of the prosperity of yin and the decline of yang, right?" I asked.

Lingshang shook his head and said: "This is not necessarily, just like you and I are not regarded as living creatures because we are infected with the venom breath of the Red Devil Spider, these things cannot guarantee that they will be able to block them, but they may also be able to play a certain role in confusing them, so that they do not dare to attack easily, we have not figured out the principle, if the tree is pulled out and taken away, I am afraid it will destroy the pattern here." ”

I thought about it for a while, and what I said was reasonable, even if it can't play a completely blocking role, but at least it will affect the judgment of those black gases, maybe I can really get away with it, in short, this is also the most corresponding thing at present, at least it's much better than not preparing anything.

"It's okay, the tree can't be taken away, the sheep can be taken away, after bringing it back, let Yun Wen use the Yang Shenmu to communicate with all things, communicate with it, and ask well, so that we can also have more understanding and make more prevention arrangements, what do you say?" I asked.

"Zhou Lang is right, how did the slave family forget Sister Yunwen's skills." Lingshang covered her mouth and smiled.

But before going to catch sheep, she and I still have an important thing to do, it has been nearly three or four hours since the departure, and half a day has passed, if the poison of this red devil spider is still not dissolved, let it remain in the body, I am afraid it will begin to deteriorate, from this point of view, from this point of view, now we have to detoxify it first.

So the two of us went out to the black gas area, and when we arrived in the jungle of the goat area, we found a place far away from there, and found a relatively secluded and suitable place, she took out another wrapped blade of grass from her pocket, coughed and said, "The way to take it is the same as before, take it." ”

I was about to take it but I heard a bleating, startled, did not catch it steadily, so it fell to the ground, I hurried to pick it up, but found that it had fallen in a pile of dead leaves, how could I not find it, I immediately panicked, thinking how it is also my own life-saving thing, saying that it is lost, is it not fatal?

At this time, instead of blaming, Lingshang said: "Forget it, Zhou Lang, if you don't mind, you and I can eat an antidote together." ”

"How to eat together, is it possible?" I immediately asked, my heart racing.

She nodded, shy.

Seeing her like this, I don't need to hide it like this, anyway, she is my daughter-in-law, how can I kiss her, why be polite to her? So I kissed her on the mouth, and she hugged me tightly, and the two of us lingered in the jungle for a long time, until a moment later she pushed me away slightly, bit the herb between her lips and teeth, and hooked her hand at me.

I kissed it again, and the juice of the herb flowed between our lips and teeth, and before long, the heat in our bodies disappeared, and it seemed that the poison had been cured.

At the same time, I happened to see that the goat that bleated just now was not far away, and since there was a fate, let's take it back.
