Chapter 160: The Statue in the Cocoon
After turning around the sisal for most of the circle, I finally found a cocoon wrapped in something behind a few leaves, but this cocoon was very small, about the same size as an ordinary computer case, it was estimated to be a small beast passing by, I shook my head and was about to leave, and suddenly found that in the gap between the leaves, a pale human hand stretched out!
The hand was blue in white, indicating that its owner had been dead for some time, and the size of the cocoon also indicated that the corpse inside would not be too complete, I bit the dead skin on my mouth and hesitated for a while, and finally did not look over, first, I could not afford to enter the danger zone for the sake of corpses, and second, I had a natural fear of those less complete corpses.
After a few more steps, the pale hand lingered in my mind, and for some reason, I had a paranoid urge to go over and find out!
By the time my brain reacted to the impulse, my feet had already stepped into the danger zone, and five or six leaves of various sizes were rushing towards me, but fortunately I now had the experience to predict the movement of the leaves by looking at the branches behind the leaves, so I dodged left and right and rushed a few steps to the front, grabbed the stone and smashed it down on the branch connected to the cocoon!
Burst! Burst! Burst!
The stone made a strange muffled sound when it hit the branches, and the dark green juice splashed into my mouth like seawater, which was bitter and salty, but I held the stone again and again as if I was stunned, and it was not until the callus fell off the main body that I finally came back to my senses and sat down on the ground.
The dark green juice splashed all over my face, and strangely I didn't feel any discomfort, and the leaves no longer attacked me, as if the smell of the juice made them think of me as one of my kind, and I had the audacity to reach out to the nearest leaf, which I would have rolled up in the usual way, but now it was as motionless as an ordinary plant.
The discovery was so significant that I smiled uncontrollably as I picked up a few large branches from the ground and put them in my pocket before looking at the outstretched cocoon.
From a close distance, this hand is simply white, but in this high humidity environment, there is no sign of decay, I touched it and found that the skin of this hand is very hard and smooth, but not the smooth kind of skin moisturized, but a texture similar to that after careful polishing, you can even see a faint reflection from the side - this is actually a statue!
It is not accurate to say that it is a statue, because it only has an arm and a chest and abdomen, the material is marble, the carving is not exquisite but very charming, looking at the line should be a female statue, open her arms to do the posture of Pudu beings in Western mythology, tear open the leaf and see that the part wrapped in it has been coated with a layer of mucus and slurry, looking at the thickness is estimated to be some years.
When I thought of this huge plant conscientiously trying to digest this statue, I couldn't help but want to laugh a little, but after thinking about it, I felt that I couldn't even tell the difference between the statue and the real person.
With the sap of plants to protect my body, I was like I had won a gold medal to avoid death, I walked around with my hands behind my back, and found two humanoid cocoons at a height of about five or six meters, one of them was well-proportioned and I couldn't tell who it was for the time being, but the other belly was like a pregnant woman with Liujia, I knew at a glance that it must be Hao Jian!
After a short period of joy, my mood became complicated again, I don't know how long Hao Jian was arrested, but I was wrapped in a few minutes just now and it was all corroded with blisters, in case I opened the leaves and was already corroded into an inhuman form, I asked myself if I couldn't accept that scene.
However, seeing that the outline of the humanoid cocoon was still complete, I hesitated for a while, and finally decided to put the person down first, I couldn't let my brother become the nourishment of this unknown plant, even if he really died here, I would let him be buried in the ground!
I made up my mind, I looked at the branch of the leaf, and then looked at the stone in my hand, and decisively gave up the idea of throwing a stone to break the branch, first of all, there are many other branches nearby that are not easy to hit, and secondly, I have no talent in throwing, in case Hao Jian opens the scoop, it will be worth the loss.
Then I began to observe the nearby branches, although these branches are very brittle, but the position close to the tuber is quite strong, as long as the strength is controlled, it should not be difficult to climb up, but this height makes me feel a little embarrassed, generally speaking, five or six meters of height will not die if you fall down, but if you are really unlucky, it is not necessarily, the safest way is to find someone to connect underneath, or tie a rope from the top and slowly lower it.
Thinking of this, I broke a few branches and held them in my arms, and then went around the tuber to find Mei Liu, he was already waiting for him to go crazy, and when he saw me coming back, he hurriedly greeted me and asked, "Brother Sanshui, you are back!" What are you doing with these things? ”
"Stay alive!" I replied with two words and threw the branches on the ground, and then smashed them all with stones, grabbed a handful and wiped it directly on my body, Mei Liu looked at it next to me with a frightened expression, and I grabbed another handful and slapped it directly on his face.
Mei Liu was caught off guard by the dark green mucus on my face, and shouted after a few mouthfuls: "Brother Sanshui, what are you doing!" I don't know what to do, so I wipe it on my body, what if it's poisonous! ”
"I don't know if it's poisonous, anyway, if you don't wipe this, you'll have to be caught by that thing later!" As I spoke, I wiped Mei Liu's whole body all over my body, and then walked more than ten meters in the direction where I came to find the climbing rope, rolled it up, put it on my shoulder, and pulled Mei Liu towards the huge sisal.
It can be seen from Mei Liu's devastated expression that he thinks I am crazy, but when he finds out that those leaves do no longer attack him, he is really crazy, just like a city bear child who goes to the countryside for the first time, from being timid to no longer afraid, and then to messing with chickens and dogs everywhere, the whole transformation process is only a dozen steps.
When we came to the back of sisal and saw the two humanoid cocoons, he had already worn half sleeves for thirty-nine days - he trembled, and said arrogantly with a wave of the mountain opening knife in his hand: "Brother Sanshui! Leave the work of saving people to me, and you can rest down there! ”
I looked at his skinny little arms and shook my head, took his knife and stuck it in my belt, and then grabbed a few sturdy branches and climbed up.
The process of climbing was much easier than I imagined, many of these branches close to the tubers had hardened, and it was very easy to climb up like a ladder, and soon I came to a place five or six meters high, and when I opened a few leaves, I saw the two humanoid cocoons hanging outside, one left and one right, and I held up the knife and found that it was embarrassing, and I couldn't cut this distance......
