Chapter 69: The Corpse Tree
Uncle Li pulled me up with difficulty, sat on the branch and panted, his physical strength was indeed a problem when he was old. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I looked up, because the branches and foliage of the tree were too dense to see the situation above, although we were lucky to survive, but I don't know what other means Ah Mo had, he wanted to force a person to die, it was not a difficult task.
"How much does that Ah Mo hate you, you do so badly!" The fawn sitting on the other side said.
"yes, even the two of us won't let go!" I responded, and suddenly I felt a chill on the back of my neck, and something was lying on it.
I subconsciously held my breath and wondered if it might be a snake!
With the experience of the previous times, I am not so afraid, as long as it is flesh and blood, there must be its weakness, a shuttle swept over, I don't believe that he can still move, and with the deer's marksmanship, there is nothing that cannot be beaten.
I squinted my eyes at the fawn beside me, but I saw that his face was pale, and his hands were shaking, as if he had seen a ghost.
I immediately felt that something was wrong, and whispered to Uncle Li behind me, "Uncle, what's wrong?" ”
But no one answered behind me, only a trace of cold breath sprayed on my neck.
Just when I was confused, the fawn shouted, "Get down!" "In an instant, bullets rained down on me.
I cursed, quickly lay down on the branch, and then quickly looked back, only to see a monster more than a man tall jumping behind me, and the bullet followed it all the way, but it missed.
No way! What the hell!
Uncle Li had already run to the end of the branch at some point, and was constantly pulling the leaves with his hands, it turned out that it was not him but the monster who was behind me just now!
"You're on time!" I shouted at the fawn.
"This thing is so fast, I can't hit it at all!" He said helplessly.
Suddenly, Uncle Li trembled, retracted his hand like an electric shock, and crawled towards me desperately, shouting as he crawled back: "Run!" ”
As soon as I finished speaking, the leaves above my head shook, and the leaves that fell were so many that they almost covered me.
Immediately afterward, a dozen huge chrysalis fell from above, sticking to the trunk of the tree, and at the same time, the monster leaped and disappeared into the depths of the branches.
"What's the situation?" I wondered.
"It's a corpse tree! Those chrysalis are full of blood dumplings! Uncle Li pointed to one of the chrysalis as he spoke, only to see that the huge chrysalis was slowly melting, and the waxy material on the surface continued to spread downward.
He then said, "Once all the chrysalis melt, the blood dumplings inside will come out, and then we will be all finished!" ”
I looked at him suspiciously, and felt very evil, so I asked, "Corpse tree?" Corpses are kept by trees? ”
Uncle Li nodded and said: "In the past, people put corpses on this kind of tree, and the corpses would slowly form cocoons, and then absorb the nutrients of the tree, and these corpses could not decay for thousands of years and have been guarding the tree." That monster just now is a juvenile tree corpse, and it is not aggressive, but these chrysalis are the really powerful things! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, those chrysalis cracked all at once, and Uncle Li hurriedly shouted, "Go down quickly!" Go to the canyon! ”
I didn't believe in any rice dumplings or anything like that, and the canyon was full of water, so I seemed a little hesitant.
At this moment, the crack of the chrysalis suddenly expanded, and in less than half a second, a strange-looking humanoid giant beast came out of it, and its body was full of slimy liquid, which made people sick to look at.
At first, I thought it was a dream and kept pinching my thighs, but then I realized that it was real, and there was such a thing as zongzi, and I immediately became terrified.
Uncle Li was so anxious that he shouted: "What are you doing in a daze?" Jump! So saying, he hugged the trunk and slid down.
"I'm afraid of water!" When I say this, I am actually afraid of this height, if I accidentally let go, I will be crippled if I don't fall to death!
"It's just you! Drowned or eaten, the choice is yours! The fawn gave me a blank look and slid down.
To tell the truth, a long pain is better than a short pain, and I might as well be eaten by them rather than splashing in the water! Just as I was thinking, the corpses of the trees rushed towards me, and because of the instinct to survive, I couldn't care much more, so I hugged the trunk and slid down.
The trunk was so thick that it was estimated that seven or eight people would not be able to wrap it around, so I had to cling to the cracks on it to barely stick to it.
The corpses were lying on the branches, all with their mouths wide open, staring at us viciously.
"Don't panic! They don't come down, they die as soon as they get out of there! Uncle Li said.
The surface of the trunk was unusually rough, and the clothes I rubbed on it were almost rotten, and my hands were hot, and there were a lot of wooden thorns pierced into it, and I was in tears. But I didn't dare to let go, it hurts, it hurts, anyway, it's better than falling to death.
All of a sudden, my ass seemed to be sitting on top of something, and at first I thought it was the end, but I immediately realized that it was round and hot, and I hurriedly looked down, and this time it almost didn't make me laugh to death: it was a fawn, and my ass was sitting on his head.
There were a few insults below, and I didn't expect the deer to burst into foul language, so I said, "Why are you so slow!" ”
"Nonsense! You are slippery, we are climbing! ”
When I heard this, I realized that they were grasping the bark and climbing down step by step, although the movement was a little slower, but not so prickly.
I was speechless, I didn't tell me how stupid I had to be!
I cursed a few words, but I didn't bother with the time, so I climbed down as they did, and thanks to the unusually wrinkled bark, it wasn't too hard to climb.
It took about a minute for us to reach the surface safely, and by this time my hands were covered in wooden thorns, and the flesh in my palms was red, but I didn't care about them, and fled with them in the direction of the canyon.
But we didn't have to run a few steps before we stopped, because it wasn't a canyon at all, but an abyss!
"Holy! What a situation! What I just saw is obviously a road! "I stood still, unable to believe my eyes.
They were also stunned, looking a little overwhelmed.
I cautiously stepped forward, glanced down, and instantly gasped, it was dark underneath, and I couldn't tell how high it was, but I felt a cold wind blowing from it, and I shivered.
I looked at the tree, and then at the abyss, and I couldn't describe how I felt at this time, it's like if you buy a watermelon and go back, cut it open, and find that it's empty.
Uncle Li picked up a stone and threw it down, wanting to test how deep it was, but after waiting for nearly half a minute, there was no response, he threw another piece, or so, we couldn't help but get nervous, could it be that this is a bottomless pit?!
