Chapter 44: The Tree Twins
Because after all, you have already gone deep into this "ghost forest", and if you don't study these things clearly, not only may there be great dangers, but you will also not be able to find valuable clues, which will not help you on the road you are about to follow.
Because according to the experience they have accumulated since their exploration, the more strange people like Anonymous or this Wei King Wei Xiaoliang, the more "problematic" the things they have made.
None of these things are left here for no reason, they all have their profound meanings, and they all have the important value of their existence.
That is to say, if these strange and mysterious things that people cannot speculate on according to common sense at all, once they appear or exist secretly, then as long as they are discovered, they must not be turned a blind eye, and if they pass by lightly, or even take an attitude of complete ignorance, then there will be unimaginable and unpredictable dangers and consequences in the course of the next expedition.
Therefore, Bai Yunfei and the other four people have been studying this strange "ghost tree" and the mysterious and eerie corpse in the tree, hoping to find some valuable clues from here, which can be helpful for the next action.
At this moment, the tightly wrapped corpse in the hollow trunk suddenly moved, so several people let out an exclamation, and Niu Gang shouted: "Mom, look, that corpse is moving!" ”
But Old Ghost Su stared at the corpse and said, "Aren't you dazzled?" I don't seem to see it move. ”
Just as everyone was arguing about whether this corpse had moved just now, and several people's eyes were staring at this corpse in unison, they saw that the corpse suddenly shook violently a few times.
"Oh my God, it's a corpse!" Lu Wuyang shouted in horror, and then hurriedly retreated in fright, but when he retreated, he forgot to use the waving torch to drive away those evil branches like octopus tentacles, but subconsciously pointed the torch at the tree where the corpse moved in front of him, so when he retreated to the range of another tree behind him, the branches of the "ghost tree" behind him instantly wrapped around him, and in a blink of an eye, he was wrapped like a corpse covered with cloth in the trunk, and the outside of his body was full of tentacle-like branches.
The countless branches of the octopus writhing wildly like tentacles lifted him up in an instant, and he was like a "human cocoon", bound and impermeable, hanging in the canopy of this tree.
After Bai Yunfei and the others heard the loud screams from Lu Wuyang behind them, and the hysterical shouts that followed but gradually became smaller, they hurriedly turned around to check, and after seeing this terrifying scene, they hurriedly waved their torches, preparing to drive away the tentacle-like branches of the octopus around their heads, and eagerly wanted to save Lu Wuyang.
The branches of the "ghost tree" that pulled Lu Wuyang away were obviously very powerful, and the speed of the drag was very fast, when Bai Yunfei and they looked back and saw the scene of Lu Wuyang being tied by the branches, before they could react, Lu Wuyang had been pulled to the canopy in mid-air by those octopus tentacle-like branches.
As the saying goes, "a wave is not settled, and a wave is rising",
They were extremely shocked in their hearts, and before they could come up with any good way to rescue Lu Wuyang, when they turned around, they were already shaking violently with their backs to the corpse, and the branches of the "ghost tree" were no longer like blindly twitching and waving just now, but suddenly they had spirituality, and began to wave those octopus tentacle-like branches at them frantically from behind, but they would actually avoid the threat of the torch in their hands and quickly wrap around their bodies and legs.
At this moment of negligence, they were entangled by the writhing branches that flew from them, and they only felt that a huge force began to strangle them tightly like a steel cable, and strangled them to breathe, and they were miserable.
The branches that entangle them began to pull frantically towards the canopy, but fortunately, the four of them were entangled at the same time, and the weight of the more people they had, the heavier they were, and there was also the strength of their struggle, so it was a blessing in misfortune that they had not been pulled up to the crown for a while.
At this moment, they didn't want to be captured by this evil and terrifying "ghost tree", so they used all their strength to resist, and the two sides dragged like a tug-of-war.
But how can their power compete with these weird, terrifying, and mysterious branches of the "ghost tree"? As a result, several people were about to be pulled up to the tree, and they were already starting to lift their feet off the ground.
At this moment, they were struggling to support themselves, and in despair, they found that those branches were rapidly emerging sharp thorns, and began to pierce the individual combat system they wore outside their bodies.
Fortunately, the individual combat system on these people can be said to be invulnerable, invulnerable, so these spikes that keep piercing their bodies make a "click, click" sound of breaking after stabbing, but none of the thorns can penetrate their bodies.
Suddenly, everyone was filled with a feeling of joy in their hearts, thinking that if they were pierced into their bodies by this terrifying spike, maybe there would be very terrifying dangers and consequences, and they were really thankful that there was such a high-tech equipment.
It was at this time that Cao Longxuan and the other people who stayed outside the "Ghost Forest", waving torches, had already begun to run in front of Bai Yunfei and them, frightened by their current scene.
Bai Yunfei was already out of breath, but he used all his strength, his face was flushed, his voice had changed seriously, and he finally shouted loudly: "Hurry, come quickly, save us!" ”
Cao Longxuan and the others obviously didn't expect that they were in good contact with each other in the wireless communication system just now, and they didn't hear anything about it, and they couldn't imagine that this kind of thing would happen in this gloomy, terrifying, and evil forest, which was simply too terrifying.
Although they also know that these branches will attack people, everyone has always had the illusion that although this "ghost tree" is weird and terrifying, it seems that it is only a biological instinct, just like a "mimosa", as long as it encounters a person or animal, it will produce a violent evasive reaction and make a move.
Therefore, the people who stayed outside the "ghost forest" before unconsciously to
Because as long as there is a torch in hand, there will be no big danger, who would have thought that these terrifying "ghost tree" branches actually took Bai Yunfei and others as prey and captured them.
must rescue all his teammates, this is the first reaction in Cao Longxuan's mind.
Although Cao Longxuan, who is scheming, ruthless, obedient, and ruthless, and sometimes can be indifferent to others, he is also a person with great wisdom, can consider problems holistically, and is a "pragmatist" who can give up small interests for the sake of big interests.
If there is a loss of personnel just after entering the Wei King Valley, then on the unknown road that is still far away, I don't know how many people may be lost, then it is possible that the expedition mission will not be completed at all, and the treasure handed down by the ancestors will not be found, and the mission will inevitably be abandoned and end in failure.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the number and safety of the expedition team is the top priority, so Cao Longxuan, who was wearing a single combat system, shouted in the wireless communication system: "Quick, go up and save people!" ”
Then he rushed forward with a torch and a submachine gun.
Cao Longxuan slashed, smashed, and burned with a torch at the tentacle-like branches that were writhing and pulling wildly, and burned them with torches, those branches obviously couldn't bear the pain of being roasted by the fire, and immediately let go of Bai Yunfei's body, and quickly retracted back to the canopy in the sky.
Bai Yunfei and the others just turned their heads to look at Lu Wuyang, who was entangled and pulled away by another tree behind them, and only then did they forget to guard behind themselves in a hurry, and they were successfully attacked by this tree. Now that they were rescued by Cao Longxuan and others, everyone was finally able to breathe freely, and a few people who were almost suffocated began to gasp violently, and even a few people fell to the ground, and they were already suffocating and almost fainting, wheezing helplessly like a dying fish on the beach.
But the branches that were still writhing and thrashing around their heads would not give them a chance to breathe, and they no longer had the strength to wield their torches, and they had lost their barrier to protect themselves, and the strange branches began to stretch out towards them one after another, ready to wait for an opportunity to entangle and pull them away again.
Fortunately, Cao Longxuan and the others rushed over, and surrounded Bai Yunfei and the others who had collapsed on the ground in the middle, formed a circle, and kept waving torches around, so as to disperse those crazy twitching branches.
However, the danger did not stop there, the body that shook violently in the hollow trunk had already begun to crawl out of the hollow of the tree like a corpse, and when it climbed to the opening at the upper end of the hollow trunk, most of its body was exposed, and then everyone could see more clearly the full face of this strange corpse that had begun to move.
The mummies in the pyramids of ancient Egypt were all corpses wrapped in some narrow strips of white cloth, but in this "ghost forest", the corpses wrapped tightly in the hollow trunks of trees were wrapped around their bodies with large pieces of brown and yellow cloth, wrapped around their bodies like beggars' clothes.
Due to the misty light and white fog of the "ghost forest", it was before
In front of the tree hole, although everyone was lying on the vertical crack and watching with torches, they could not see very clearly, and only when it climbed out of the hollow tree hole, everyone could see clearly that the brown and yellow cloth on its body was written in black ink-like handwriting, densely written with all charms.
"I'll be a good girl!" Old Ghost Su shouted loudly in horror, "Could it be that this is the Yin Soul Body that cultivates tree spirits?" Or is it a puppet brain used to cultivate the Undead Evil Tree? Or is it the dark sect of the dark Taoist priests who live in sojourn and raise corpses? ”
At this time, everyone no longer had the mood and time to consult Su Lao Ghost, what was a "puppet brain" or a "yin soul body" and the like, because they saw that this gloomy and weird corpse had already passed through the gaps in those wrapped brown and yellow charm cloths, revealing a pair of fiery red ghost eyes, staring at everyone deadly, and crawling out of the tree hole with some mechanical movements.
Mo said that it was someone else, even Niu Gang, who had always regarded himself as "stupid and bold", was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, his lips trembling and he wanted to turn around and run.
Bai Yunfei had a hunch that if he let this evil corpse covered in charms crawl out, there might be a catastrophe.
At this time, Cao Longxuan didn't say a word, picked up the submachine gun in his hand, and shot wildly at this corpse that Su Lao Ghost suspected was some kind of "puppet brain".
After the gunshot, bright red blood flowed from the brown-yellow "assembly" cloth full of charms, and the corpse staggered at the mouth of the tree for a long time, causing the hearts of several people under the tree to shake.
