Chapter 355: Grafting Hand Bones
Compared with flesh and blood creatures, the biggest advantage of this skeleton made of white bones is that it is not afraid of the cold!
When the wood gave the order to dig a hole, it stepped into the puddle that flooded its ankles and began to dig up the rubble, and the cold and biting groundwater did not affect its movement at all.
In addition, Mu and Wu Lin, the two "overseers", stared at the skeleton that bent over and dug a hole, and observed for seven or eight minutes, and unexpectedly found that it did not show a trace of weakness, as if this undead creature, as long as its soul fire is not extinguished, it can be like a humanoid machine equipped with a "perpetual motion machine", tirelessly and continuously laboring!
This discovery can't help but make the two people in a desperate situation, as if they have picked up a treasure, and at the same time they are amazed, they also have a hope of escaping from this place, although this hope is still slim......
However, this skeleton also has an obvious drawback, that is, it has too little strength!
Not to mention the horizontal knife weighing more than 30 pounds, it is a steel bar with the thickness of a finger, and the skeleton wields it, which is also very difficult, and at the same time, due to the lack of the left finger bone, it can only work with one hand, resulting in the work efficiency is not very high.
After observing this, Wu Lin couldn't help but think of the jade hand bone of the wood that was like a treasure, and immediately turned his head and asked, "Wood, don't you have a hand bone?" Could that also be a product of a parallel world? ”
Hearing this, a picture suddenly flashed in Wood's mind, that is, when this skeleton was just discovered, it was rummaging through the bone mountain for broken bones, as if it was piecing together "parts" for its missing phalanges!
So, this guy hurriedly took out the hand bone from the cotton clothes he had taken off, and shook it vigorously at the skeleton that was digging a hole!
Unfortunately, the skeleton was indifferent to his "calling dog" action.
Seeing this, the undead wood ordered the skeleton to stop what it was doing, walked up to him, and handed the jade hand bone directly, intending to take a step closer to try its reaction.
This time, the marionette-like skeleton has finally changed a little!
When the jade finger hand bone touched the finger bone stretched out from the skeleton, the blue flame in its eye socket actually beat violently!
Then, without waiting for the wood to "command", the skeleton took the hand bone handed to him, and at the same time, his left arm shook, and threw the palm of his missing phalanx bone to the ground along with his elbow! Immediately after, I saw it holding the jade hand bone and butting towards the broken arm!
At the moment when the bones met, the wood was in a trance, and it felt that this skeleton seemed to be a little smart!
At the same time, the blue flame in the skull's eye socket actually "shrunk" a large circle in an instant, as if this part of the energy was all used to nourish the hand bone.
"This skeleton can still pick up its own bones?" Wu Lin's eyes widened and he said.
Wood thought for himself and said, "I'm afraid it's not just about bones...... and then he ordered the skeleton to pick up the knife again with his newly picked left hand!
With a metallic trill of "Qiang", this horizontal knife, which weighed more than 30 pounds, was flexibly waved by the skeleton after the knife was drawn out of its sheath!
Seeing this scene, Mu Tou and Wu Lin glanced at each other, and immediately concluded that this hand bone was not only from another world, but also must have an extraordinary origin!!
After grafting the skeleton of the hand, the work efficiency has been multiplied several times, it holds a horizontal knife in its left hand, a steel bar in its right hand, and after a while, it will collapse the water outlet and clear a gravel channel as deep as a meter.
At this time, in front of the passage, a one-meter-square cement slab appeared. The cement slab sat across the collapsed sewer pipe, blocking almost the entire pipe, and only in the bottom crevice, there was still clear groundwater flowing out.
Faced with this blocking stone slab, the skeleton had to stop after several attempts to pry to no avail.
Seeing that the skeleton suddenly stopped digging, Wu Lin asked inexplicably, "What's wrong?" ”
"There's a cement slab in it, and it has to weigh half a ton to say the least, and the skeleton can't pry it at all!" Wood said with a frown.
Hearing this, Wu Lin hurriedly got out of the quilt, and after lighting the lighter, he trembled and drilled to the entrance of the cave to take a look, and when he saw the situation in the cave, he couldn't help but say deflatedly, "It seems that we are destined to die here!" ”
If you want to continue digging, unless the skeleton can split the concrete slab, or choose a detour.
If you take a detour, you don't have to think about it, you can directly veto it, because both sides of the sewer pipe are full of gravel and hard soil, in the absence of modern machinery, such a large amount of work, with only a skeleton, it is estimated that there will not be a year and a half, don't even want to dig out the scope of the snow forest.
And split the cement slab......
Not to mention that the skeleton doesn't have so much strength, even if there is, the sewer pipe has collapsed in more than one place, who can guarantee that the back of the cement slab is a smooth road?
In frustration, as if to vent, the wood drove the skeleton to aim at the cement slab and stabbed it frantically, but it could not shake the boulder except for leaving white marks half a finger deep.
However, in the process of venting, he suddenly discovered a problem!
The blue flame in the skull's eye socket actually shrank again, as if it had run out of energy, and it would be extinguished at any time!
"Could it be that every move of the skeleton consumes the energy of that blue flame??" Wood thought in surprise.
When she told Wu Lin about this discovery, she frowned and analyzed, "You obtained the energy to activate the ability by absorbing the soul, could it be that this skeleton also needs soul energy?" Maybe it will evolve into a more powerful being by acquiring souls......"
Hearing Wu Lin's analysis, Mu Tou thought for a moment, and then ordered the skeleton not to continue digging deeper, and turned around and drilled towards the exit where the violent bear collapsed.
After a while, I saw a skeleton, carrying a steel jacket on his shoulder and a horizontal knife in his hand, climbing the cliff and coming to the snow forest.
At this time, the bear was nowhere to be found, but the snow around the cliff was very messy, and it was probably caused by the fact that the bear was burned by the flames and rolled in the snow.
The skeleton carefully avoided those footprints, chose a relatively flat snow area, broke the cover and lowered it, and put a few pieces of frozen meat taken from Wu Bald's son on it, and finally dug up the thick snow layer next to the steel sleeve and covered its body.
After a few seconds, only a bare skull was left in place, half-exposed in the snow, and if you didn't pay attention, you would think it was the bones of a long-dead survivor.
After about half an hour, I saw a snow-white beast with a snow-white body, shaking its nose, and came to the vicinity of the cover!
The beast resembles a rabbit in appearance, but with a sharp horn on the top of its head, and its two incisors are no longer panel-shaped, but as sharp as canine teeth.
Through the relay of wood, Wu Lin told him that this strange beast is called Horned Rabbit, and he usually likes to act alone, although he is timid by nature, but his strength is indeed good, if the tooth wolf and the gray dog meet alone, he will be pierced by the horned rabbit!
This horned rabbit, although it smelled the smell of fresh flesh and blood, but it was cautious by nature, but did not run directly to the sleeve, but walked around, shrugged its nose around the steel sleeve, sniffed carefully for a while, and then like an arrow from the string, it jumped towards the bright red piece of meat!
