Volume 4 The Ice Palace of the Western Desert Chapter 32 Tree Ghosts
It doesn't matter if it's afraid, it's not about sadness......
It was a tree, it was supposed to be leafy, it was supposed to symbolize life.
However......
The headless corpse hanging from it replaced the branches and leaves, automatic and swaying without wind, as if trying to break free from the control of the tree, indescribably strange and desolate.
The tree, originally raised leaves, it was indeed extracting the vitality of the human body to strengthen my body, I stayed there, although I could think but could not feel the temperature in my body, and a stream of cold surged into my heart with the swaying dried corpse.
"Naive."
"Lu Han!"
Suddenly, the voices of the fat man and the red luan came, I didn't know if I was still alive, and I wanted to raise my hand to tell them about the tree behind me......
"You're awake!" As soon as my body tightened, I was hugged into a soft and warm embrace, she seemed to be very excited, her hands trembling in her arms, obviously hugging my scarred body very hard, but as if she was afraid of hurting me, she let go a little and hugged me more tightly.
When the pain came, I frowned, and the fat man hurriedly ran forward and said, "I said aunt, you are going to kill your innocence!" Still the familiar voice, my body faintly regained some temperature, and the tree in front of me became clearer, but the more I regained consciousness, the more painful my whole body was, I knew that I must be covered in bruises now, and I didn't know how much flesh I had been eaten, and I wanted to raise my hand to the tree to remind them that neither of them could do it.
"Ahh Hongluan finally noticed that my face was getting paler and paler, and hurriedly let go of me and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm just too ......" She was a little incoherent.
"Tree ......" I tried to squeeze a faint voice out of my throat to remind me, but the two of them looked at me worriedly as if they hadn't heard at all.
"Innocent, you're scared to death of the fat man!" The fat man slapped me, I immediately gasped, and the tears were about to come out in pain, Hongluan just glared at him directly, and said, "Do you want to whip me?" ”
……
The fat man stopped talking, and at this time the tree became more and more weird, and the dried corpses that were urging were actually glowing with some green light, shaking on the branches...... No, it should be said that the shaking is getting bigger and bigger, and it feels like it's going to struggle with those branches that pierce deep into their necks!!
A chill immediately rose in my heart, and a wave of uneasiness lingered in my heart for a long time, and my intuition told me that if this kind of thing could move freely, it would definitely be an even more terrifying existence than the corpse king, and none of us could defeat it now, and the big tree was ......
Like scattered leaves, the headless corpses could not be measured, just like the human heads in the lake, and they did not know how many there were!!
Head!!!
I'm a spirit, a headless corpse, a human head......
!!!
It was at this time that I saw the position of the number in the distance, the branch that was originally barbed deep in the neck of the dried corpse was slowly about to be broken, and only a little tendon was left in the rather thick branch, and the corpse seemed to sense that it was about to get out of trouble, and it swayed back and forth "happily", much faster than the others.
"Huh......" Suddenly the fat man's puzzled voice came: "I found ......"
Halfway through his speech, his face changed slightly, and he kept swallowing his saliva, as if he had seen something terrifying. I was overjoyed, thinking he had spotted the tree behind them.
"The damn fat man found that the head was very arrogant!" He picked up a stone and said, "The innocence has been saved by us at the risk of death, and it dares to look at the shore of the lake!" As he spoke, he slammed the corpse into the lake, and I felt that something was going to happen, and I looked back in severe pain, and just happened to see the head that the fat man had said, a very dry head, and very gloomy like skin and bones.
"Plop!" In an instant, the stone fell down, and sank to the bottom with a thud, stirring up a large wave and splash, and the head was gone. The fat man clapped his hands: "In front of the fat man, he dares to expose the head of the dead man, the fat man is not small to cut it to death!" Hongluan was a little worried, but he despised the fat man even more: "I don't know which one's butt has been bitten hole~"
……
"You !!" The fat man was speechless, pointing at Hongluan's red face and red ears, covering the hole behind his pants with a face full of shame: "What's the matter, these dog heads bite not to bite the fat man here, it's really fucking heavy!" ”
……
The two of them frolicked endlessly, and the fat man made this appearance, I naturally knew that they were doing this entirely to tease me, but at this time, where could I be happy, there was only one picture left in my head.
The two of them didn't realize that when the fat man's stone had just fallen into the water, I saw an expression, a terrible expression that could not be described in words, so hideous that it made people creepy just by looking at it, and the facial features were distorted to a kind of terrifying degree, it came from the most arrogant human head, that is, the one that the fat man threw down with the stone.
Of course, this is only part of it, what makes me break out in a cold sweat is that I recognize the human head, it is definitely from the dried corpse that was about to break free from the branches before, the neck fit is exactly the same, and the facial features are basically the same as the dried corpse, which makes me more and more uneasy, and I forced myself to endure the sharp pain and stretched out my hand to point at their backs, squeezing two words out of my throat.
"There are ghosts!"
However, as soon as the sound came out, even I was startled, because the chest cavity was bitten near the neck, and it was bandaged tightly at this time, and the injury was serious, and the sound made was no different from a ghost, if it weren't for the medicine left by the iceberg, I might have to explain it here.
Still, my purpose had been achieved, and the two of them turned their heads to look in the direction I was pointing, and I breathed a sigh of relief, for the dried corpse was almost out of trouble.
After a while, both of them turned back to me and looked at me with strange expressions, and I thought they had seen the tree and were about to speak. The fat man stretched out his fat hand to touch my forehead, and said to Hongluan a little speechlessly: "It's hard for this child, he has been injured so badly, he has hallucinations!" ”
……
"I'm grass!" In the excitement, he pulled the wound again, coughed loudly, and shouted loudly in a hurry: "I grass, I grass, I grass!! "I stared intently at the tree, watching the dry corpse break free from its confinement and fall steadily to the ground, its headless body running towards us as if it could see something, as fast as it could see, but the two of them seemed to be unable to see at all.
"Let's go!" I said with difficulty, my face about to twist together, and I pulled a hoarse voice: "Hurry up, go!" ”
Finally, the faces of the two changed, a little difficult to look at, Hongluan glanced at the fat man, and then stared at me with the fat man, and asked heavily: "You...... Did you see something? I nodded without hesitation, feeling the power contained in the body of the headless corpse, which made me shudder from such a distance, and I couldn't help but feel palpitations: "Tree, ghost!" ”
"Where?" The fat man asked.
I stretched out my hand to the tree again, my expression changed suddenly, and my eyes froze together......
The two of them turned around again, Hongluan looked at me with some distress, bit her red lip and said to me, "Lu Han, you can take a rest, we are here!" ”
……
This time, I didn't lie in Hongluan's arms and look into the distance like just now......
I saw a figure slowly coming out of the tree, expressionless, his eyes hollow, he didn't say a word, just easily stretched out his right hand, and suddenly the dried corpse cracked inch by inch in my incredible gaze, and I didn't even have time to let out a miserable howl.
Then, the headless corpse of the whole tree was furious, the yin wind howled, the ghostly light was great, and it shook like the nine ghosts, as if it was about to shatter the man in front of him, and the person was still expressionless, and looked deeply at us, and then calmly took out an iron dagger from his arms and threw it lightly at the trunk behind him.
The iron dagger was so sharp that it only took a moment for the entire blade to sink into the trunk, and at the same time, everything was silent, and the dried corpse seemed to be stunned and returned to its dead stillness, hanging motionless on the branch, and no longer moved......
When everything was done, the figure disappeared into the tree again, as if it had never appeared, only now that my stunned look told me that it was all true.
The guy just now is......
