Chapter Seventy-Two: Dry Bones in a Cocoon

I vaguely saw the Taoist priest who fell from me, and I was stunned for a moment, as if the spiritual sustenance collapsed all of a sudden.

The moment I slipped from the trunk, I saw a huge grasshopper the size of a pumpkin glowing gray on a branch not far overhead, and under its tail there were constantly grasshoppers burrowing out, and it was this giant locust that rained over us.

It turns out that this is the mother! In an instant, I knew what this thing was, but I couldn't get it back, we were over fifty meters high on the trunk, and the chances of surviving from such a high fall were almost zero.

The speed of the fall is getting faster and faster, I saw the Taoist priest, he is far away from me, he is about to fall to the ground, it seems that he is going to die before me. I sighed in my heart, what I thought about the most at this moment was that Huangquan Road would not be lonely.

Seeing that the Taoist priest was about to hang up, I didn't expect this guy to make a move that I didn't expect at this time, only to see him quickly take off his shoes and smash towards the nearest fibrous root.

In an instant, the smashed fibrous roots, like an enraged poisonous snake, rolled towards the Taoist priest at once, wrapped him in a few tenths of a second before he landed, retracted back into the tree and hung up.

I was dumbfounded by this scene, I didn't expect such a dead end to be broken in such a way, and at the same time, I admired the Taoist priest in my heart, and at the same time, I also learned from the Taoist priest to smash the fibrous roots with shoes.

Sure enough, those fibrous roots immediately woke up after being stimulated by the outside world, and whistled and wrapped me back and hung me from the tree.

A thrilling crisis was hastily resolved, and I felt a pang of unreality. Although everything is back to square one, all the locusts on my body have been thrown out by the huge inertia between the dragging of the fibrous roots just now, but it has been a blessing in disguise.

"Daoist, how are you?" The Taoist priest was below me, and I couldn't see his condition, so I shouted and asked.

After a few seconds, the voice of the Taoist priest with a heavy wheezing voice came from below: "Immeasurable, immeasurable your uncle's Tianzun, Dao Ye, Dao Ye is fine, the insects are temporarily thrown off, you wait, Dao Ye will come up to save you when he breaks free from the roots." ”

My heart is slightly relieved, just now I was able to break the fibrous root completely because the curse made me out of control, and now I have no way to get out, but fortunately, this time the Taoist priest is more reliable.

After the accident just now, we have fallen back to less than ten meters above the ground, and the trunk here is covered with thick wax, and I found that there is not a single insect on the trunk here, and I am immediately a little curious.

There are the most corpse cocoons in this area, and the corpses in all the cocoons are very badly decayed, apparently very old. I have long guessed that the activity of the whole hell tree should be different, the closer to the roots, the lower the activity of the tree, and conversely, the closer to the top, the more active the tree is, as evidenced by the activity of the fibrous roots.

I had been digging in the trunk of the tree below for so long, and I didn't see any fibrous roots coming to catch me, but as I continued to climb up, I only got a little closer to the fibrous roots, and I was immediately caught. Moreover, the fibrous roots above will actively go out hunting even if they are not stimulated, and can even burrow into the holes in the dome of the underground forest to hunt animals on the ground.

This can also be confirmed by the encounter of the Taoist priest, this guy just pulled Pao Xiang on the side of the filling pit, and was immediately arrested, probably because the top fibrous root felt the breath of the Taoist priest.

The corpse cocoon next to me is probably more than the year before, and it looks very terrifying, and I really don't want to stay in this position for even half a second to make the Taoist priest move faster.

In the process of waiting, a lot of bugs fell on my body, I was very annoyed, fortunately this time my hands were not restrained, I patted the bugs on my body, while looking around, suddenly, I saw a nearby corpse cocoon seems to move.

I immediately broke out in a cold sweat and stared at the corpse cocoon, but after several minutes, the corpse cocoon did not react again.

"Is that wrong?" I muttered in my heart, I felt very bad in my heart, and I was busy urging the Taoist priest to hurry up, and the Taoist priest scolded below, saying that the fibrous roots below were different from those above, like steel bars, and they were so hard that he could not break them all at once, so I didn't rush them.

Then I remembered that the fibrous roots that were getting closer to the roots of the tree became thicker, and suddenly the bad feeling became stronger.

Click! Just as I was highly concentrated, paying close attention to the situation around me, a crisp cracking sound sounded, and I was startled in my heart, and hurriedly looked towards the place where the sound came from.

I saw that seven or eight meters away from me, a crack appeared on a dark blue corpse cocoon, and the crack was still getting bigger, full of cracks, and it seemed that the entire wax cocoon had a tendency to shatter.

There was a buzz in my head, and I suddenly remembered the terrible scene I saw in my childhood, the corpse cocoon was cracked, could it be that the corpse inside was about to come out?

"Something is wrong, Dead Daoist, you should fucking hurry up!" I was so anxious that I scolded, my eyes staring at the cracked corpse cocoon, and the horror in my heart had climbed to the extreme.

"It's coming, it's here, fuck, what is urging, we're all like this, what else can happen." The Taoist priest finally broke free from the fibrous roots, and climbed up muttering, very dissatisfied in his words.

I pointed to the cracked corpse cocoon for him to see, and he was also taken aback, and subconsciously said, "You should have accidentally touched it!" This thing is old, it's not so strong for a long time, don't think about it, Dao Ye can't see the corpse qi, it's absolutely impossible for the corpse to change, and the corpse has already withered, even if it really gets up the corpse, a bone shelf, just kick it and scatter, it's not in the way. ”

The Taoist priest said relaxedly, but I found that his face had already frozen, and he looked as if he had been poured cement, and this expression was definitely not an unobtrusive expression!

"Get me down, I have a bad feeling that we're going to have to get down."

The Taoist priest withdrew his gaze and pulled the fibrous roots on my feet, and I saw that he was a little struggling, and I was anxious, so I hurriedly handed him the knife. The Taoist priest had already practiced, and having a knife and not having a knife were two completely different situations, so I saw him wave it casually, and in a flash of coldness, the fibrous roots that were the thickness of a cigarette pipe were broken.

As soon as I landed on the branch, a more crisp click sounded, and the faces of me and the Taoist priest changed at the same time, and we saw that the blue wax cocoon was completely shattered, and a pair of gray dry bones poured out and fell on the branch.

Both of them were stunned, and after a long time, seeing that the dry bones did not react, my heart was slightly relieved, maybe I thought too much, and I was about to go over to take a look, when the Taoist priest grabbed me.

I looked back at him and saw that his face was pale and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

"Can't get over, there's something wrong with this dry bone."
