Chapter 308: Human Skin Strikes
Those people were like snakes. A layer of epidermis is shed. Then put your own skins together. In the end, he returned to his previous position. Continue to learn from the old man to sit cross-legged. Just stopped chattering. For the time being, the area was cleared for a while.
Zhang Yi whispered: "It turns out that those human skins that have just been burned." These people took it off. Wu Yishu. Have you ever heard that people can shed their skin. It's incredible. ”
I've only heard of snake molting. I've never heard of people being able to molt.
There are many species of animals in the world that can shed their skin. The more common ones are animals such as crabs, spiders, chiro, and snakes.
They molt for different reasons. And the whole process is not very easy to detect. So. Once the word molting is mentioned. Most people immediately think of animals like snakes and lizards.
Legend. The molting of a snake is the process of rejuvenation. Many snakes can be kept molting to ensure that they can survive in the world in the best possible condition.
But actually. It's just a legend. Because it turns out. Molting snakes also die a natural death.
But. With the scene in front of me, these people who have lived forever in the world can shed their skin like snakes. I found that my worldview was about to be turned upside down. Or rather, it has been turned upside down.
At the same time, I am well aware. And that's not all. The main event is bound to be yet to come.
Really. The old man with the golden scepter suddenly held the golden scepter above his head with both hands. And stopped chattering.
The men who were kneeling before him did not speak again. They all looked up at the old man with their eyes open. It seems that something is waiting for.
The old man held a golden scepter. Get up slowly. He struck the ground several times with the end of the golden staff. The sound of the knock hit me like a stick. It almost broke my heart.
Not much. I suddenly felt itching all over my body. It was as if there were countless ants crawling under my skin. I couldn't help but reach out and scratch on my body. Scratch out the blood marks.
Shen Dali and Zhang Yi were in a similar situation to me at this time. The two of them cursed one by one while tickling their bodies. and discussed going together to make the white-haired old man bald to vent his anger.
I knew they were talking about it. Now this situation really let them go. They certainly didn't want to.
Watching the three of us itch so much over here. It's as if nothing happened. Frowning and leaning over to speak.
Although I couldn't understand what she said in Hmong. But I guess she must be asking us what's going on.
I express what I mean with gestures and actions. This tells us that we are itching all over our body. I suspect we've been fooled unconsciously. The reason why Duoduo didn't hit the Gu. It must have something to do with the big worm she was carrying that could save people.
Just when I was scratching my liver and lungs, there was nothing I could do. The white-haired old man finally stopped tapping the ground with his golden staff. And the itch on our body disappeared immediately.
Now this is the case. I can't tell if we've really fallen for the Gu or not. I just want to be able to get out of this place. Then follow Miduo to find Gu Muma. Let her show us it.
However. The old man no longer makes noise, though. But the human skins piled up together were unexpectedly unexpectedly moved. It's as if something is about to emerge from under a person's skin.
My heart went to my throat. shouted anxiously at Leng Yue: "Hurry up and snatch the golden scepter." Our side is running out of it. ”
Leng Yue shouted "Okay". Dragged the iron chopsticks upside down and rushed towards the old man.
But at this moment. The piles of human skins were crawling fast. Scattered everywhere. Just like the human skins we've seen before.
Cold Moon saw this. Hurriedly stopped. Retreated again.
The human skins seemed to feel the breath of fire. One after another raised his head like origami. Look left and right. And finally found the fire where the fire was already weakening. It seems that he wants to climb over too.
The old man must have guessed what these skins were trying to do. Visibly flustered. Holding the golden scepter in one hand, he held it high. Then quickly squat down to a half-kneeling position. He slammed the golden scepter to the ground.
Just listen to the "bang" thump. The ground trembled.
It was as if the human skin had been stimulated by something. Stood up like a paper man. Then they scattered and fled. And rushed directly out of the platform. Plunge into the darkness. It only stirs up the sound of continuous water.
We looked at each other. It's a little unclear. But they all realized that these people didn't jump into the fire. It must mean that something worse is going to happen.
Shen Dali asked me in a low voice, "Fifth brother." What to do next. ”
I didn't answer Shen Dali. Instead, he shouted at Leng Yue: "Go and grab the golden scepter." ”
Leng Yue nodded when she heard this. A bow. Like a cheetah in the dark. Rushed towards the white-haired old man.
The white-haired old man glanced at Leng Yue slightly. Raised his hand and pointed at Leng Yue.
Those who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground quickly stood up. Between the two of them, a human wall is formed that is difficult to cross.
Leng Yue tried to clear the way with iron chopsticks. But there are too many people in the way. I can't rush through it at all.
Zhang Yi ran to the edge of the platform with a wolf-eye flashlight full of anxiety. After looking down with the beam of the flashlight. Exclaimed, "Oh my God. Come and see. ”
My heart shook. Chong Shen gave a big look. ran to Zhang Yi's side one after the other. Look down. I couldn't help but gasp.
In the icy waters of the lake below. There are black figures breaking through the water. Crowded under the platform. It seems to want to climb up.
Look at the body type. Those figures weren't water ghosts. But it shouldn't be a paper-like human skin. Unspeakable weirdness and horror.
Zhang Yi was obviously a little panicked. Anxiously asked me what to do. But I didn't know what to do.
When I was anxious. I suddenly heard the sound of something crawling from under the platform.
Not much. On the edge of the stone platform. A hand popped up. Tightly fastened to the stone platform. Then came the heads.
Those heads had no facial features. There are only eye holes, nostrils, and mouths. With their climbing movements. Water is constantly flowing out of these holes.
It turned out that these were human skins. And it's a human skin filled with water.
We don't hesitate now. Hurriedly used the tools in his hand to lift the human skin off the stone platform one by one.
But. The number of human skins that came up was too much. Just four of us can't stop it.
In order to prevent accidents. We hurriedly retreated. Waiting with trepidation and trepidation. And hoped that Leng Yue could snatch the golden scepter sooner.
However. The cold moon is still blocked by the human wall. But human skins have climbed up in large numbers.
I calmly thought about it. Said to Shen Dali: "Dali." You quickly take Zhang Yi and Yu Duo to cross the stone bridge first. ”
Miduo is a girl. and with him four very heavy golden rods. Not only can't it help. It will also be a burden to us. Zhang Yi hung a color on his body. Although the injury is not serious. But the ability to act has been greatly reduced. Shen Dali is my brother in life and death. I don't want anything to happen to him.
In such a form. It's better for them to cross the bridge first. to keep them safe.
Shen Dali said hurriedly: "What about you." ”
"I'm going to help Leng Yue. Vigorously. If you believe me. Hurry up and take them to the other side and wait. ”
Shen Dali shook his head and said, "Fifth brother." It's not a question of believe it or not. Such. You take them first. I'm going to help Leng Yue. ”
Zhang Yi hurriedly said: "Don't let you two go." I'm not fucking trash. To walk together. Stay together. ”
