【Chapter 111】The Lord of the Forest
Rowan replaced the juice-soaked cloth in the noses of these two people, tore two new socks and stuffed them, and then used the remaining socks to wipe the saliva from the corners of Zulong's mouth, and wiped the juice on his face for the sea, and then sat on the ground and waited for the two of them to wake up.
After a while, Zu Long opened his eyes first, looked at the top of his head and exhaled a breath before turning his head to look at Luo Wen in wonder: "What are you sitting here?" ”
Luo Wen raised his eyebrows, and repeated what had just happened to Zu Long, who lay his head on the ground: "The melons and fruits in this forest are like drugs, which are addictive, to be honest, I still have the desire to taste them again."
Rowan bit the plastic stick and said, "I don't know what kind of fruit trees these are, but all the fruits emit an attractive taste, and the purpose of hallucination is achieved through the sense of smell, which makes people want to stop." And the juice of these fruits, as you said, is like drugs, which makes people want to drink more and more, which can not only change a person's temperament, but even make people lose their rationality and forget themselves."
At this time, the sea farted and woke up, and opened his mouth to scold: "Your grandma, why does your brain hurt so much?" ”
Rowan told the story again, and the sea was also afraid for a while, listening to Rowan describe his appearance at that time, the sea shuddered for no reason, and then looked at these fruits, I always felt that the melons and fruits in my eyes were wrapped in a demonic aura.
The sea asked Luo Wen in wonder: "Team Luo, where did you get the socks?" ”
Rowan held a plastic stick in his mouth and propped his hand on the ground, leaning back: "It's in your bag."
The sea furrowed his eyebrows all of a sudden: "I wore these socks in my bag!" ”
Rowan shrugged: "I couldn't manage much at that time"
Dahai was embarrassed on his face: "Those socks have not been washed since they escaped from Pingshan, and they were changed after arriving in Wuhan"
Zu Long was about to pull out the cloth in his nose, Luo Wen waved his hand again and again, and he was steady for a long time before he spoke: "Don't move, I can't smell the sweetness of this melon and fruit at all now, it should be related to the smell of the socks themselves, either the smell of this socks overshadows the sweetness, or the two flavors are neutralized after they meet, don't take risks, hurry up and get out of this forest."
Zu Long glared at the sea and asked, "How stinky are your feet?" The smell of this melon and fruit is so fragrant that you can't smell it now, if it is neutralized, your stinky feet smell at least a level with this fragrance to compete, that doesn't mean how sweet the fruity aroma is, how smelly your feet must be? ”
The sea was quite unimpressed, pouting and saying: "Fortunately, my feet stink enough, otherwise you would definitely climb the tree again now, this is called brine and tofu, one thing drops one thing." Providence! ”
Rowan took out a trauma sticker from his backpack and pasted it on the door of the sea's head, and then the three of them sorted out their things and went on the road again. Because it was too dangerous to know that it was too dangerous here, it was necessary to pass through this forest as quickly as possible, so the three of them did not dare to slack off, and followed quickly according to their footprints, chasing the traces of Jin Zhong and Sister Fang like a rapid march.
But what they didn't expect was that not far after the three of them left here, they saw someone lying on the ground in front of them!
Rowan hurriedly made a standby gesture, patted Zu Long's shoulder, and walked over with Zu Long's bag, but the closer Luo Wen got to it, the more sure he was that it was not a person lying on the ground at all, but a skeleton!
The skeleton was dressed in Liu He's worker's costume, and its musculature was completely gone, leaving only human skin still wrapped around the skeleton. But there was an AK47 rifle not far away, which indicated that the identity of this person was most likely Liu He's personal arm. Rowan left the autopsy to Zu Long and began to examine the surroundings himself.
The situation at the scene is very easy to judge, because the ground is full of peels of various fruits, traces of vegetation being trampled, and broken branches. There were bullet holes left by automatic rifles everywhere, but they were scattered, and it seemed that the battle should have taken place very suddenly, almost without warning. Rowan had not taken a few steps before he found another corpse under a large leaf, but it was also wrapped in a skeleton, and the flesh on its body was gone.
Zu Long's autopsy went very smoothly, the cause of death of the deceased was obvious, there was a bullet in the head drilled into the position of the temple, from the position, it should be a shot to kill, after the bullet shattered the skull, the high temperature instantly burned the main brain trunk, causing the deceased to die on the spot.
As the three of them moved forward, the number of corpses increased, including Liu He's personal armed forces and bounty hunters, and the situation at the scene became more and more clear, it should be that some people here inadvertently ate this fruit and became crazy, and the others were difficult to deal with this sudden situation, so they finally chose to cleanse like slaughter, and killed the part of the people who had eaten the fruit and became crazy.
And they didn't go smoothly either, and some of the people in the middle of the group who had become crazy began to fight back, so a fight began here, which was easy to judge from the firing points and the position of the dead bodies, and it seemed that in the end it should have been the bounty hunters or a small part of Liu He's personal armed forces who won the victory.
"Wen'er, look at this" Zulong squatted on the ground and looked at a corpse lying flat.
Rowan and Dahai hurriedly followed, and saw that this corpse was obviously different from other corpses, because it was the Giant View!
The giant is not decomposing, but the corpse is gradually drying up.
Zu Long pointed a lancet at the bottom of this corpse: "Look at this! ”
The vision of the sea is not so good, so squatting on the ground and turning on the hanging flashlight of the machine gun followed Zulong to take a closer look, and found that the skin and muscles of the giant view have now begun to melt, like ice cream under the summer sun, and after a while, it turned into a large pool of blood and water, and then seeped into the ground, obviously this soil has a strong ability to absorb water.
Rowan looked up at the trees around him: "It seems that the plants in this forest are all human-eating plants. When the juice reaches a certain saturation, the neurotoxins in the juice will kill the feeding creatures, and then the toxins in the body will accelerate the internal decomposition of the corpse, and at the same time form a giant view.
It is even possible that the internal toxins cause the decay to be too fast, and some corpses do not have dead brains, but they form the phenomenon of giants in advance. If there is no external force, this giant will gradually decay and dry up, directly into this kind of flesh, which flows into the ground and is ingested by plants, and so on. ”
Zu Long asked thoughtfully, "So that's how the giant view we saw before came about?" ”
Rowan nodded: "Very likely"
"I'm going to set the hell on fire to the forest!" The sea shouted.
Rowan waved his hand: "The plants here also abide by the law of time turbulence, and when the loop of death is opened again, they will appear in front of you again." ”
Just as the three of them lingered here, Rowan suddenly stopped, and his eyes began to look around.
Zu Long leaned over, looked around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Rowan gestured with his chin to the footprints on the ground: "They suddenly exert force here, judging from the shape of the footprints and the depth of the soil, they have changed from walking to running from here." I have a premonition that it's not good."
When Zu Long saw it, sure enough, the footprints that were originally moving forward smoothly had now all turned into traces of the front half of the soles of his feet, and they were also very deep in the ground, and at first glance, they were sprinting quickly without touching the ground.
"Are they in a hurry?" Zu Long wondered.
Rowan snorted: "No, if they were in a hurry, they should have run a long time ago, but it didn't make sense until here that they remembered to accelerate, I think it's more like running for their lives."
After Luo Wen finished speaking, Zulong instantly felt that the atmosphere around him had also become a force, from the harmony just now to a strange feeling, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, or a kind of instinctive warning, he began to feel that there was a potential danger around him that could be fatal at any time.
"Team Luo?" The sound of the sea sounded in the background.
Rowan and Zu Long were looking left and right at the moment, so they just hummed.
I heard the sound of the sea becoming extremely nervous, and then said behind the two of them: "Team Luo, you are really a fucking crow's mouth!" ”
As soon as they heard this, the two hurriedly turned around, and in an instant, they felt that a cold wind was floating from this place with lush tropical vegetation, and even the two of them shivered, because just behind the two of them, an unexpected thing was slowly climbing out from behind a big tree!
This thing is about one and a half meters tall by eye, at least two and a half meters long, red, and its whole body is covered with all kinds of colorful bumps, large and small, if not a thousand, there must be eight hundred. A pair of eyes are extremely black, not only do they have no sclera, but they also have no pupils, their limbs are bloated, their fingers are webbed, and they have large suction cups on their toes, making it seem that it is extremely difficult to even walk.
And there are two pairs of wings on the back, but they are much smaller than the body, and they are not on the same scale at all. The most striking thing is that he has a large mouth, with a neat row of teeth that are exposed, like a zipper, but Rowan believes that this big mouth must not be simple, compared to the sharp teeth of the tiger ray, the chewing power of this thing will definitely make the tiger ray a docile kitten.
And it turned out to be a multicolored toad!
Zu Long clamped the two lancets in his hand at once, and Rowan slowly pulled out the three-barrel revolver behind his waist, the sea was the closest, and he was so shocked when he saw this monster that he forgot to pick up the gun.
"Turn off the lights!" Rowan shouted.
"Team Luo, what the fuck is this?" The Great Customs hung a flashlight.
Luo Wen stared at the big toad, and slowly opened the firing pin: "I don't know what to do, don't mess with it first, let's see."
The monster was extremely slow, and every step seemed to take a long time to think, and it took half a day to take a step. The limbs are slightly bloated, the fat accumulation at the knee joint is very thick, and the huge soles of the feet are covered by the fat on the legs, as if they are directly on the knee, as if they have been amputated.
As a result, it doesn't walk like a normal creature, but more like it moves forward on its knees. Rowan saw the big toad shaking its head from side to side as it walked, as if to determine the location of the three people, but his eyes were staring straight into the distance.
"It can't be seen!" Rowan reminded.
Immediately, the ancestral dragon broke off a branch beside him and threw it along the other side, but it was not too far away. I saw that this monster didn't even pay attention.
Rowan also wondered in his heart, what is this? Rowan even found out that it didn't even have nostrils!
"Wen'er, do you want to test it?" Zu Long asked.
Rowan shook his head: "Wait, I don't think we can take advantage"
The sea quickly took over the conversation while pushing back: "This thing is fucking disgusting to look at, you see it's wet, as if someone spit on it!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the big toad stopped violently, and then turned his head to the sea!
Zu Longmeng's hand turned over and conjured a square card knife, and his wrist shook to the side and threw it out, the square card knife seemed to fly out of the direction of the dragon deviated a lot, but in fact, this square card knife formed an S-shaped trajectory in the process of rotation, and flew to the monster left and right.
But just when the knife was about to hit the monster's left knee, the monster suddenly lifted its left leg with great accuracy, and the knife slashed against the soles of its feet, and sank into the grass with the most swish!
Zu Long smiled, shook his hand, and the two square card knives flickered forward left and right, this time it was difficult for Rowan to calculate the landing point according to the trajectory, but he didn't expect this monster to shake its wings violently and raise its right hind leg, and dodge the square card knife again!
Zu Long hummed in wonder this time, and then shook his hand and flew out of the four square card knives one after another. But what surprised Luo Wendu was that this time the square card knife had not completely detached from the fingertips of the ancestral dragon, and the monster actually moved a large distance to the left side one after another, and these four square card knives were slashed at the position where it was standing just now in a few tenths of a second after the monster moved sideways!
Seeing this, Rowan was shocked, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It can predict the prophet!" ”
