Chapter Twenty-Four: Mandrills
The contents were a monkey-like dried corpse with a short tail, a black-brown back, and a white belly.
But this dried corpse is strange, with long claws that are very large, as big as a plate used at home.
And there is also a black glow in the sharpness, and what is even more strange is that it actually has a human face, green face and fangs, which is extremely terrifying.
The face was very white, with the corners of the eyes upturned, a small red nose, no chin, and a long, pointed mouth.
It's weird and abnormal!
"Mandrill!" The word popped into his head. Since ancient times, there have been many legends about mandrills, which are actually ghosts that inhabit the mountains.
Most of the legendary mandrills have a little Taoism, ordinary mandrills can create illusions, charm the mind, and eat people's hearts.
Those who are deeper in the Tao, live on the soil, are proficient in the art of retreat, and use the mausoleum as a lair, which is called the blood dragon, which is an extremely terrifying one.
Even some capable people in the world don't dare to provoke this thing easily, once they provoke the ferocity of this thing, they will either die or be disabled, which is even more terrifying than an old corpse.
Jiang Li was preparing to stay away from this monkey-like monster. It can't be the legendary Bloodfish, but there's nothing wrong with being careful.
But that thing seemed to be able to see Jiang Li, and the moment Jiang Li turned around, a strange thing flashed in its eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a black mist instantly diffused out from the small temple and came straight to Jiang Li's face.
The moment the black mist hit, a fierce roar suddenly came out of its blue-faced fanged mouth.
In Jiang Li's terrifying gaze, this strange and abnormal, huge fanged monster actually rushed out of the small temple, and after it landed, it was followed by a fierce roar.
Jiang Li was startled, threw the red cloth in his hand, and ran away, while the monster behind him chased after Jiang Li.
In a panic, Jiang Li glanced back, only to see a human-faced monkey chasing after him. The human-faced monkey also let out a high-pitched strange scream, and he felt an unbearable headache just by listening to it.
This frightened Jiang Li's legs weak, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden, and the mandrill was already less than ten meters away from him. He didn't care much, turned around and got up and ran forward.
His strength is immense, and his speed is extremely fast. But the mandrill chased after him, bringing up a series of afterimages.
Jiang Li was frightened at the same time, and hated himself for being cheap, why did he pull the curtain for no reason.
If you don't pull the curtain, there won't be a mountain charm chasing after you now.
The trees were rapidly retreating, but Jiang Li didn't dare to look behind him, just listening to the sharp sound and feeling a pain in his head.
Suddenly, there was a hot and sharp pain in his back, and Jiang Li broke out in a cold sweat. A huge force struck, Jiang Li flew up in the air, and fell heavily to the ground with a 'whew'.
For a while, his eyes were full of stars, and just when Jiang Li had just come to his senses, a black, sharp, and long claw grabbed at his head.
Jiang Li looked at the claws that were rapidly getting bigger in his eyes, his face froze, and then he turned his head away, and he was able to dodge this fatal blow.
I couldn't help but be afraid, if this claw was caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Before he could make any thoughts, the same claw struck again. Jiang Li was shocked, rolled and moved sideways for nearly a zhang, and then dodged.
Jiang Li didn't dare to entangle with it anymore, and ran up with a rolling belt. Not far ahead, it seemed to be the edge of the forest, and you could see that there was light there.
He couldn't understand why this mountain charm would chase after him, could it be that he had taken a fancy to his life physique like that yin and wanted to eat himself!
Jiang Li felt his scalp tingle just thinking about it, and he knew that he should go around far away.
The edge of the forest is getting closer and closer, Jiang Li is overjoyed, and he can escape from this forest.
Suddenly, there was a huge pain in his ankles, and his feet were nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move a single step.
The huge inertia caused his body to fall forward, and he made a loud 'whew' sound, which shook the fallen leaves in the sky.
Without waiting for Jiang Li to react, the mandrill quickly climbed onto his body, stretched out its long claws, and grabbed Jiang Li's back with lightning speed.
Jiang Li didn't have time to block, and in an instant, the ten sharp claws pierced his back.
"Ahh A terrible cry instantly rang out in the forest.
Jiang Li could only feel the pain unbearable, grabbed the pair of sharp claws with both hands and pulled them out desperately.
But the claws of the mountain charm were extremely powerful, and they couldn't move a point, and the hind claws of the mandrill tightly grasped Jiang Li's clothes, and the whole monkey body was tightly buckled on Jiang Li's body.
Jiang Li couldn't do anything under the severe pain, so he rolled on the ground with both hands supporting the pair of sharp claws. A man and a monster rolled on the ground, stirring up fallen leaves all over the ground.
Just when Jiang Li was about to lose consciousness, a miserable scream sounded in front of him, which shocked Jiang Li's ears and made his eyes go straight to Venus, and then the sharp claws that were tightly inserted into his back quickly pulled away.
The whole person suddenly lightened, and Jiang Li raised his head with difficulty to see that the mountain charm had already left his body. was staring at him in the shadows.
Jiang Li touched his back, the hole that had just been pierced was still there, although it was hot, but there was not the slightest blood flowing out.
Jiang Li was a little confused, he felt a little strange in his heart, but this was not the time to dig deeper.
Jiang Li struggled to get up from the ground, his consciousness a little blurred. But he could still see clearly that the mandrill in the dense forest had not given up trying to catch him.
He stared at him again, his eyes full of greedy desire, and from time to time a pair of sharp fangs appeared.
Jiang Li was startled and ran away again.
But when he turned around, he found that the mandrill had run in front of him at some point. Less than ten meters away, the mandrill stared at him wickedly with its claws, as if saliva remained at the corners of its ugly mouth.
Jiang Li was frightened at the same time, but he also wondered, such a good opportunity just now, as long as it gave itself a few more paws, it would definitely become its food, but why did it suddenly give up? It seemed that it was afraid of something.
"What the hell is it afraid of~~" At this time, Jiang Li had calmed down, his brain was spinning rapidly, and now his thinking was so clear, he admired this kind of tortured mind.
Jiang Li held back his fear and stared at it, and at this time, even the long fluff on its face could be seen clearly.
Although I had already met with it just now, I had dodged several deadly attacks from it. But looking at it at the moment, my legs were still trembling with fear.
The sun was rising higher and higher, and it was almost ten o'clock in the morning. The sun outside the forest began to burn. However, in the dense forest, only a little sun light spot is revealed, as if there are two worlds.
Jiang Li inadvertently looked at the place where he had fought with the mandrill just now, where a spot of the sun's light was scattered.
"Could it be ~~" A thought quickly flashed in Jiang Li's heart. Jiang Li intends to verify whether what he thinks is correct.
