Just when I was at my most helpless, the sound of footsteps in the camp gave me a glimmer of hope again.

Lao Zhong rushed out with a torch in his hand, and when he saw this scene, without saying a word, he threw the torch in his hand towards us. The head of the flame slashed across my head and slammed into the vine that was wrapping around me from behind, and then he unscrewed a bottle of gasoline and threw it in the same place.

The gasoline bottle exploded, and the flames burst into flames, and the flames that had risen ignited the vines, and a large flame burst into flames, and in an instant the vines tied to me were set on fire, and the vines began to shrink wildly, and also loosened my tightly wrapped body.

I fell to the ground all of a sudden, Ge Zhuang reached out and grabbed me, and the three of them stumbled forward and ran wildly, going over to meet the old clock.

"How did you leave the camp in the middle of the night, and what is this?" The old bell pointed to the vines that were rolling wildly behind us, driven back by the flames, and exclaimed loudly.

I said there was a dryad, I was almost eaten by a dryad! Old Zhong's eyes widened, and he looked back at the vines that were gradually shrinking, and said that there is actually a man-eating tree here, go quickly, so as not to catch it and eat it alive in a while!

We all personally understood the power of this "cannibal tree", but fortunately, after these tree vines were frightened by the flames, they shrank back one after another, and did not continue to chase us, Ge Zhuang and I were so frightened that our faces turned white, and Chen Yun almost ran out of breath, and we all looked back at the bizarre tree, I had never seen such a strange scene in my life.

The vine couldn't pass through the flames, and the body of the dryad hung on the trunk, opening its mouth wide as if waiting for us to approach, Ge Zhuang was angry, and asked for it from the old clock's hand*, and put on the rifle from the new, aimed at the body of the "dryad" and pulled the trigger continuously, and after a few shots, the "dryad" was covered with holes, and hung softly on the tree.

As soon as the "dryad" died, the whole tree withered, and the vines that had been rolling up to us withered one after another, and it didn't take long for them to fall into a dry state, and that scene happened in front of my eyes, and the water in the vines evaporated all at once, and it looked like a strip. Seeing this, a few of us cautiously approached again with torches, and found that the "dryad" lying on the trunk of the tree had completely deflated and turned into a dry corpse.

Just now it was plump like a normal woman, but in a blink of an eye, it became this ghost, which made us feel inexplicably surprised, Ge Zhuang put his hand on the trunk of the tree, and the trunk on the surface had been directly opened due to the evaporation of water, I was not sure if this tree was poisonous or not, out of caution, let Ge Zhuang not touch it, took out the snakeskin gloves he carried with him and handed them to Ge Zhuang.

He put on his gloves and grabbed the dagger to pry open the dry bark, and when the bark peeled off, it revealed an empty core with a large space filled with many strange objects, including insect corpses, small bottles and cans, and dense blood streaks, like the blood vessels of a living person, connecting the whole tree.

The appearance of those "silk blood" is wrapped in a transparent white mucous membrane, which is very viscous, Ge Zhuang touched it with his hand, and the fragile blood was broken one after another, but a thick blood was diffused, which made several of us frown again and again, and quickly covered our noses and retreated a little.

Ge Zhuang said, "It's really strange that this tree is like a human, and there are 'blood vessels' growing in the trunk......

I'm busy talking fat, don't talk nonsense, how can someone have such long blood vessels? Chen Yun retorted to me, "Don't you think that this tree actually wants to be a living person?" At this time, the ancient witch clan's healing technique, which is also one of the Gu, has long been lost, and I now understand that the 'tree demon' that attacked us just now is actually a tribe member who made a serious mistake, and was planted in a tree by the priest of Gu Yelang using some tricks, and sealed it with a sarcophagus chain, in order to keep her soul trapped in it forever and unable to be reincarnated. ”

I said no wonder, I guess the first dream was deliberately entrusted to me by the "dryad" in the sarcophagus, she intended to attract us over, but opened the sarcophagus, so that her soul could get rid of this cruel criminal law, I didn't expect that we were kind enough to help, this girl actually wanted to eat me!

Chen Yun shook her head and said, "I don't know if there is a soul that has survived after being trapped here for thousands of years, but she deliberately gave you a dream to attract us to come over, but it is true, I guess, this may be a predatory method of the dryad, you see how many years this tree has existed and has not died, it must need a lot of nutritional supplements, we happened to pass by, and became the ingredient that it fancied." ”

Ge Zhuang scolded evilly, and said Damn, dare to use the fat man as a steamed bun, you are so scared that you are not afraid to die, little pumpkin, hand me the torch, look at the fat man, I will not burn this dog thing.

I reminded Ge Zhuang not to be rash, this dryad was chiseled into honeycomb coal by you with a gun, you haven't enjoyed it yet?

Ge Zhuang saw that I refused to pass the torch over, so he grabbed * and smashed it on the trunk of the tree to relieve the hatred in his heart, the surface of the bark had dried up, and he couldn't withstand his impact, * smashed on the bark, and actually formed a lot of dents, Ge Zhuang smashed more and more energetically, and couldn't help shouting excitedly, "Look, there is a big piece of space here, maybe there will be silver when the dryad is buried." ”

Not to mention, the dead fat man put his hand in and fiddled with it for a while, and sure enough, he found a lot of very rough polished funerary goods from the trunk, all of which were bronze products, but this trunk has withstood thousands of years of wind and rain, and the trunk has long been in the sky, and it is not a vacuum environment, so these ornaments have long been oxidized and mutilated.

Ge Zhuang smashed his lips and said It's a pity, if this thing is intact, it will be enough for the fat man to go home and build a large luxury villa.

Chen Yun said that you want to be beautiful, this kind of bronze product, a few people dare to buy it back, but it is placed in this "canopy", most of it is related to the ancient Li Wu's healing arts, it is very evil, I advise you to throw it away as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble.

Ge Zhuang refused, saying that we worked hard, climbed over the snowy mountains and crossed the grassland, isn't it just to find a clear weapon for the inverted bucket? Finally, I got something in my hand, and I wanted to put it back again, but there was no door!

Chen Yun was helpless, and said Think about Professor Yang's fate, and Xiaoyue's, do you think these things should be taken?

Hearing this, Ge Zhuang's hand shook, and then he hurriedly stuffed back the things he touched from the tree hole, and said, it seems that he is busy again, little pumpkin, why do you say that our brothers are so dead, there is no shortage of danger, but there is no value for the goods, and if it goes on like this, I feel that it is better to go home and farm as soon as possible.

Chen Yun said with a smile, "It's better to farm than to make this kind of dead money, I said you, also change the problem of greedy for money, is it not much more stable to do a serious career?" ”
