Chapter 203: The Bone Tree
"Who is it?"
A sudden shout came out of my mouth, startling Hu Xiaojiu.
I saw him patting his chest with palpitations, and there was obvious anger in his expression.
"What are you doing? I suddenly shouted, which scared me just now! ”
"I'm sorry."
Hu Xiaojiu and I apologized, but the feeling of being stared at became more and more real, and I always felt that someone was in the dark, staring at our every move.
I was very careful when I came out, and I used magic to make sure that no one was following us, so where did this feeling come from?
Could it be that it's because we're thieves that we feel this way?
I shook my head, trying to shake off the strange feeling in my heart.
The no-man's land is far away from Xuanwu's territory, and Hu Xiaojiu and I walked for nearly an hour before we finally saw the location of the no-man's land.
It was a large open area, the land was barren, and in front of the land, there was a vertical sign, on which the words "no man's land" were written directly with a pen, as if they were afraid that others would not know where this was.
Before Hu Xiaojiu and I got closer, we smelled a pungent fishy smell, which emanated from the land, which was almost disgusting.
Hu Xiaojiu covered his nose with his hands in disgust, and moved his fingers a little impatiently.
"I told you not to come, this place really stinks, how many bones have to be buried!"
"I'm afraid not." I glanced at Hu Xiaojiu, "Look, there is a corpse that has been half gnawed by the beast, it is estimated that this is the canteen of the group of demon beasts." ”
Accompanied by my calm voice, Hu Xiaojiu looked ahead, and didn't know what he saw, so he suddenly rushed to the side, bent over and kept throwing up.
In this regard, I could only walk next to her and help Hu Xiaojiu smooth his back, while looking around to see if there was anything worth noting.
Hu Xiaojiu must be a monster, and he is much more sensitive to smells than normal people, and I am also very distressed about this.
As far as the eye could see, all that remained was a pile of skeletons, and the half-eaten corpse.
Because the night was already dark, I couldn't see much, and I could see a dense forest at the farthest end of the clearing, and maybe those monsters were hiding in it.
Nothing, this discovery made me a little unwilling, and when I was holding Hu Xiaojiu, my eyes kept scanning in the hope that I could see something wrong, even a little bit.
Just when I thought I was about to return in vain, I suddenly heard a strange scream.
Before I could react to what was going on, I was covered by Hu Xiaojiu.
I saw that in the open space in front of me, suddenly the ground was a little loose, as if something was breaking through the ground.
"Smack!"
Something finally broke through the shackles of the soil and struggled out in an instant, and when I saw it clearly, my eyes widened and widened.
I saw a white ossified palm rushing out of the soil, and after the first one rushed out, there were several places in succession, and bone palms also rushed out one after another.
It's as if there is a skeleton planted under the land, and when the time comes, they will break through the ground.
The various zombie movies I had seen in my mind flashed in my mind, and then Hu Xiaojiu and I saw that the ground in front of us was constantly loosening, and the smell of the fish was getting stronger and stronger, choking people almost forgot to breathe.
Even if I think I'm well-informed, I've never seen such a tragic scene.
Just when I thought that when all the palms grew out, it would be calm, but I felt the ground shake even more strongly under my feet.
"Not good!"
I screamed, grabbed Hu Xiaojiu's hand, and ran behind me without looking back, until I felt that my feet stopped shaking, and Hu Xiaojiu and I stopped.
When I turned back again, everything in front of me shocked Hu Xiaojiu and I so much that we couldn't even speak.
A tree grew behind us, a huge tree.
But the composition of the trunk of the tree resembles an arm, and through the dim moonlight, the cold light on the body of the tree can be seen.
The branches of the tree are still spreading, and as for the hanging on them, there are knuckles like fingers, and when the wind blows, the knots will make a clanging sound, but there is an inexplicable feeling of dizziness in the ears.
I frowned, and was just about to plug my ears when I saw Hu Xiaojiu suddenly stuff something into my ears and lip shape at the same time.
"There's something wrong with the sound."
I immediately nodded, the sound was absolutely odd.
Feeling that the land was not trembling, Hu Xiaojiu and I held hands and walked in the direction of the tree.
This trip is really not a loss, there is indeed a problem in this no-man's land.
When Hu Xiaojiu and I got closer, I realized one thing.
The corpse that had been half eaten by the demon beast at the beginning had disappeared without a trace, and as for the skeletons we had seen when we first arrived, they had also disappeared strangely, as if they had never existed.
I couldn't help but look at the big tree in front of me and suddenly noticed something.
Throwing the corpses here, and then providing food to those demon beasts, this is just someone else's account, but no one has ever verified it.
And Hu Xiaojiu and I are also preconceived, so we think so, but what if not?
What if these corpses, their real purpose, were to provide nourishment to the tree?
A gust of wind blew, I couldn't help but shrink my neck, I felt the hairs on my back stand up instantly, and a sense of crisis from nowhere quickly swept through my body, and also made me reflexively turn sideways, and at the same time I only heard a sound of breaking wind in the air.
"Be careful!"
After I reacted, I pulled Hu Xiaojiu, held her in my arms, and rolled on the ground.
When the two of us stood up, we realized that Anonymous had appeared behind the two of us at some point, with a gloomy look on his face, obviously dissatisfied with our finding this place.
Hu Xiaojiu and I gradually straightened up, staring at Anonymous with burning eyes, Anonymous's already necrotic mouth, trembling at this time, as if he was about to speak.
"Anonymous, why are you here? Didn't you just keep stalking us! ”
I thought of the strange feeling I had just felt, and I thought of him as a matter of course.
However, in the face of my questioning, Anonymous suddenly roared and pounced on me and Hu Xiaojiu like a beast!
Hu Xiaojiu would let him succeed, unceremoniously raised a kick, and directly kicked Anonymous to the ground and rolled on the ground. How embarrassed and embarrassed it is.
"Okay, we haven't done anything to you yet, you start playing tricks behind your back! Say, what do you want to do, what is your purpose? Grandma hasn't been looking for you, but now you've sent you to the door, if you don't say it, be careful that Grandma is here today to beat you to a pulp! ”
I have already seen Hu Xiaojiu's fierce temper, but now I am a little surprised to see her temper becoming more and more arrogant, how can I not match her with the cute image in front of me.
