Chapter 31: Dried Corpse

At this time, the praying mantis also discovered the rushing torrent, its feet were weak, and it collapsed, its eyes and body quickly returned to their original black and gray, like a lamb to be slaughtered, let out a low whimper, and its body trembled and feces and urine fell together.

How powerful monsters were scared like this? Lu Xiaonan will not sympathize with the life and death of the monster who wants to eat himself, but it is a pity that his good wish to be collected as a mount and brought back to Earth cannot be realized.

Seeing that he couldn't break out of the riverbed, Lu Xiaonan had to run downstream, but the torrent was like a wild monster chasing after him, sweeping and devouring everything he encountered, and he could see that there were countless giant trees, monsters and human corpses in the turbid yellow waves, and the praying mantis hung its head at the moment the torrent hit, and was swallowed by the waves like fate, turning into one of the corpses.

Lu Xiaonan didn't dare to stay for a moment, and jumped to the shore from time to time during his escape, because he found that the torrent chasing behind him only hit down along the riverbed, although the waves were five or six meters higher than the riverbank, but they did not overflow at all, as long as he jumped out of the riverbed, he could be safe, but after many attempts, he helplessly found that the river was completely blocked, and he couldn't find a chance to jump out.

This is definitely a seal, I want to play dead master.

Lu Xiaonan kept running, and he had exerted his speed to the extreme, like a light, passing through layers of barriers, rubbing against the air to make a sonic boom, and in the blink of an eye, he didn't know how far he had run.

However, when he looked up again, he saw the crooked neck tree appear in front of him again, and he couldn't help but be stunned, but time did not allow him to think about it, the torrent behind him was like an evil dragon with a huge mouth open and eager to devour, and it swallowed towards him, Lu Xiaonan screamed, rushed under the crooked neck tree, and continued to move forward, but after a while, he still came to the crooked neck tree as promised.

This time Lu Xiaonan was really frightened, weird, this is really weird, he is like running in a dead loop, constantly repeating, the final outcome is that he exhausts his physical strength and is swallowed by the torrent, and he must find a way to change this situation.

After passing by the Crooked Neck Tree four times in a row, he finally found that although the tree was only three or four meters high, the main branch of the Crooked Neck still stretched out to the river, but the torrent waves of nearly ten meters seemed to dare not approach the Crooked Neck Tree when it passed by, and immediately divided into two, giving up the space of the Crooked Neck Tree, and then merging into one after passing.

When Lu Xiaonan passed by the crooked neck tree again, he deliberately slowed down, jumped suddenly when the torrent was about to catch up, grabbed the trunk with both hands and climbed up, and sure enough, the torrent roared under the trunk and did not hit the tree.

Lu Xiaonan lay on the trunk of the tree and breathed a sigh of relief, but he only cared about jumping up the tree, but he didn't notice that the position was facing the dry corpse hanging from the tree, the two faces were only a few centimeters apart, and there seemed to be a ghost fire flashing in the shriveled and sunken eye sockets. He jumped in horror, but the ground on the tree was so big a palm, even if he retreated, it was not too far away from the dried corpse, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the dried corpse carefully, but found nothing.

Is it to scare yourself? Lu Xiaonan didn't think so, he turned his head to look at the rolling river that was a little dizzy, and then suddenly turned back to look at the dry corpse, which swayed and did not change.

After doing this several times, Lu Xiaonan muttered a little in his heart, and he was also a little helpless, and no matter what happened to this dry corpse, a big living person and a corpse were always very reckless, so he joined hands towards the dry corpse, "This friend, I just borrowed a precious land to temporarily avoid the flood, and it was by no means an intentional offense, and now we are under the same roof, I don't know how long you have been exposed to the wind and sun, when the water recedes, I will help you enter the earth, and please forgive me, don't blame." ”

The corpse seemed to pause, then continued to sway, the torrent under its feet curled up layers of fine ripples, but this time it flowed silently, and disappeared a moment later. However, the many beast corpses rolled up in the flood made Lu Xiaonan very frightened, in which he seemed to see the legendary Hydra, Xuan Turtle and other fierce beasts, and even a phoenix, all kinds of birds and beasts that he didn't know, and the huge corpses rolled in the waves and flashed; And those humanoid corpses are even more numerous, men, women, old and young, with one eye, three eyes, four legs and six arms, not only normal human races, but also other human-like races, whether it is an emperor general or an ordinary human being, or a cultivator holding a magic weapon, no matter how brilliant he was in life, now he is just a dead corpse in the torrent of waves, crowded together and flowing downstream.

The torrent was gone, the acid rain in the sky had dissipated, the seal that had prevented him from leaving was gone, and the river was dry again, and the fish-scale cracks on the riverbed seemed to have never been disturbed by the flood, and there was still a crisp clicking sound when stepped on.

The sky was still gray, and the air was a little oppressive.

Lu Xiaonan swung his sword and slashed at the sling on the neck of the dried corpse, but it failed to cut it several times in a row, and even the sling did not even show a little sign of damage, this sling looked ordinary, it was the belt of the waist of the dried corpse, it was so tough.

Lu Xiaonan was a little curious, so he jumped to the tree again and looked at the sling carefully, he really didn't see anything unusual, and he said something offensive to the dry corpse with his hands, and then untied it according to the strap buckle, and as the dried corpse fell, he fell to the ground in advance and took the dry corpse in his hand, it was as light as nothing, after all, it was a dry corpse.

He put the dried corpse under the tree, glanced at the sling in his hand again, and leaned down to help the dry corpse re-tie it around his waist, after all, this is the deceased's thing, even if it is a magic weapon, he does not plan to take possession, he is not a person who sees money, this thing will have nightmares after taking it. However, he also discovered that not only this suspender, but also the gray robe on the dry corpse was also extremely tough, was the textile technology here so high?

Lu Xiaonan took out a spare magic weapon sword prepared for him by the Lu family, dug a pit under the tree, and wanted to bury the dried corpse, but when he dug the pit and looked back, the dried corpse disappeared! It's gone!

Yes, gone!

Will the corpse run away on its own? A creepy feeling rose from the bottom of his heart, fear came from the unknown, although Lu Xiaonan was confident that he was not a timid person, otherwise he would not have ventured to come to the underworld of this seemingly barren place, but a dried corpse disappeared under his eyelids, so it was so sensational, he had not found it, but he met a ghost halfway.

Lu Xiaonan felt as if he had fallen into a trap, which strangled his neck fiercely, but when he raised his head, he saw that the dried corpse was still hanging from the crooked neck tree, with two feet dangling above his head, and seemed to wink at him, but Lu Xiaonan didn't see it.

Isn't that interesting? At this moment, Lu Xiaonan still doesn't understand that things have changed, this dry corpse is absolutely inseparable from the strange situation just now, if it is not the reason of this dry corpse itself, it is someone who is manipulating nearby, and he is still a master, this is by no means a place for himself to stay for a long time. He couldn't find outsiders, so he bowed his hand to the dry corpse that was still hanging on the tree, "This friend, uh, this senior, since the predecessor is unwilling to be buried, the kid won't bother much, and the kid will burn more paper money with you in the future, don't pass it away, don't send it." ”

Lu Xiaonan turned around and left, not leaving waiting for the abused vegetables, he didn't want to die in vain, so he quickly ran forward, this time he stayed away from the riverbed, and walked quickly in one direction, but when he ran out for half an hour, he suddenly found that he had returned to the same place again, back to the crooked neck tree.

Lu Xiaonan's face was ugly, and he hugged his fists and bowed to the surroundings, "I don't know which senior is joking with the kid?" If there is any offense, I hope that the seniors will raise their noble hands, and the kid will thank you here. ”

After speaking, there was no echo around him, and he looked at the dried corpse hanging from the tree again, and found that the dried corpse seemed to have changed somewhat, not the same as before, but he couldn't say what was different.
