Chapter 22 Human Dysentery
The forest is lush with vegetation, and everywhere you see it is feminine plants, shrubs, and thick trunks, each tree as thick as two people hugging each other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoKudzu vines grow around trees, and ferns are everywhere on the ground.
As soon as I entered the forest, it seemed that it was dark, and the forest that covered the sky and the sun could not see through the light at all. And there is no road ahead of us, only to move forward all the way, and the journey is particularly slow.
Although the forest vegetation is lush, there is no sign of animals, not even the sound of birds. The whole forest was in utter silence, and this silence made people feel irritated and panicked.
The forest was big and more than we expected. We hadn't worn it out until the afternoon.
"No, no, no, I have to rest, Dao Ye can't walk." The monk dropped his backpack and sat on the ground with a grin. Not only him, but every one of us was exhausted and sweaty.
"No, we have to keep walking, there are too many shrubs and vines in this place, and poisons are easy to infest, so we have to find an open place." The fifth uncle told us to persist and continue on our way.
"I said, senior brother, this place, after walking for so long, where does the open land come from? In addition to vegetation or vegetation. ”
Although the monk said it, he still reluctantly followed. Eventually, we found an open field. There are no other plants here except for a few banyan trees, and the terrain is flat, which is very suitable for us to rest.
"Tsk... This banyan tree must be hundreds of years old, right? Grow so tall. The monk lay on the ground and looked up at the banyan tree.
Several banyan trees grow in each other's arms to form an ellipse, each with a diameter of five or six meters. The banyan tree grows so luxuriantly that you can't tell how tall it is. But as far as we can guess, each tree must be about 100 meters tall.
Strangely, in front of each banyan tree, there is a one-meter-high stone tablet, which stands in front of the banyan tree like a tombstone. The tombstone was piled with leaves, and half of the stone was buried in the ground. Because of the example of Ouyang Chengrui, none of us stepped forward to study this time.
The fifth uncle circled around the banyan tree, kept looking around, and finally took out a small porcelain plate from his backpack, poured in clear oil, and lit a plate of everlasting lamps and put it in front of the banyan tree.
The lights burned very vigorously, and in this gloomy jungle, a small plate of everlasting lamps could still be used as lighting. I looked at the fifth uncle's actions a little strangely, and I didn't know what he was doing.
"Senior brother, illuminating with an everlasting lamp, doesn't it seem a little angry?" The monk was happy, propped himself up, and sat on the ground. Looking at the ever-bright lamp that the fifth uncle placed in front of the banyan tree, he said teasingly.
The fifth uncle ignored the monk, but bowed respectfully to the banyan tree, and then turned around and said: "This uncle is not an ordinary banyan tree, but a kind of funeral, and there are people buried in the tree." ”
"Tree burial!" Uncle Li jumped in shock, but he was very interested.
Tree burial is a very ancient custom of burial, mainly in the southwest ethnic minorities. In modern times, it is rare, and most of them have heard of it, and few people have seen what a tree burial really is.
"No, it's not a tree burial." The fifth uncle hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop us from coming forward to watch, and said cautiously with a frown: "This banyan tree is just a tool for making evil arts, and this technique is called human scabies. ”
Human scabies are a kind of scabies. The Evil Technique is an extremely vicious evil art, and it is one of the three major evil arts in southern Yunnan along with Gu Poison and Head Lowering. Among them, human hesitation is a kind of hemorrhoid, which mainly uses human corpses, but the object of worship is only known to the person who performed the art.
This technique is extremely vicious and cruel, and it has long since disappeared into history, and I didn't expect to meet it here.
At this time, we found out that there were originally five banyan trees. Such a thick banyan tree, the things in it can be repaid. I'm really afraid of a monster that accidentally jumps out.
The fifth uncle lit the lantern to prevent the monster in the banyan tree from waking up. Moreover, the fifth uncle used the so-called technique of channeling darkness to rest here without disturbing him, and left before the everlasting lamp went out.
"Could it be that these banyan trees can grow so tall because of the nutrients that are transformed by the decay of corpses?" The monk was dumbfounded, his face full of incredulity, and muttered to himself, "How many corpses are here?" ”
"This banyan tree is just a carrier, and the real Lord should be in the trunk of the banyan tree." The fifth uncle pointed to our feet and said, "If I am not mistaken, where we are standing, there should be a corpse pit below, and all the corpses are buried." ”
Within a radius of dozens of meters of this banyan tree, it should have been specially treated before, except for the banyan tree, not a single grass grows. This is just to conserve nutrients and make the banyan tree grow more lush.
Standing on the pile of corpses like this, and I don't know what monster is buried in the trunk of the banyan tree, it makes people feel horrified to think about it. At this moment, none of us want to stay any longer, so it's better to leave this place as soon as possible.
"Such a vicious sorcery, we should have destroyed it with a fire, why do we keep it?" When the monk heard this, he was furious, and he couldn't get used to these cruel evil arts.
"No, we'd better not alarm the Lord here and cause unnecessary trouble." Seeing that the monk was really planning to make a move, the fifth uncle hurriedly persuaded: "The purpose of our trip is King Nammer, there is no need to waste time and energy here." ”
"Are we really going to alarm this weird thing?" Ah Tai asked in a low voice, although he was bold, but he was also frightened by the cruelty of these witchcraft.
"As long as we leave before the ever-bright light goes out, we'll be fine." The fifth uncle pointed to the lantern in front of the banyan tree and reminded us not to let it go out before leaving.
"I think we'd better go, rest in another place, this place is too evil, it makes people panic." Uncle Li is always cautious, avoids troubles when he can, and never stands under the dangerous wall.
Everyone packed their backpacks and prepared to leave. I casually looked at Ouyang Chengrui, thinking that this nerd had really suffered a lot of sins along the way, and he had to drag his sick body to follow us. Even if there is Atai's support and care along the way, it is an extremely painful journey.
However, I saw a cold smile on Ouyang Chengrui's face, his eyes were not sloppy, and the corners of his mouth were saliva. I'm a little stunned, is this Ouyang going to start getting sick again?
I know that after Ouyang Chengrui was poisoned, he was always good and bad, crazy and crazy.
After thinking about it, Ouyang Chengrui had already stood up, stumbled and walked slowly towards the banyan tree, his eyes always staring at the everlasting light in front of the banyan tree. Suddenly, he used his entire body to pounce on the ever-bright lamp.
I was terrified, if this lantern was pounced on by him, it would have to be extinguished, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Be careful!"
I'm far away, and it's too late to stop it. Only with a shout, everyone immediately reacted and discovered Ouyang Chengrui's actions. The monk who was closer, with his agile skills, strode forward, and when Ouyang Chengrui's body was about to suppress the ever-bright lamp, he firmly hugged Ouyang Chengrui.
Call...
We were all scared out of a cold sweat, and we couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when we saw that the ever-bright light was fine.
"I said, what are you doing, a scholar, you want the lives of a few of us?" The monk hugged Ouyang Chengrui, just like educating a primary school student, chattering endlessly.
I secretly scolded the monk for his lack of virtue, if Ouyang is sober, I am afraid that he will really fight with you.
Ouyang Chengrui seemed to really start to get sick again, struggling in the monk's arms, looking at the everlasting lamp in front of him, like a moth, he had to fight it.
"Ouyang's Gu poison has attacked, it seems that we have to tie him up." Uncle Li sighed and looked at Ouyang Chengrui.
"I said monk, can you put Brother Ouyang down first." The monk still hugged Ouyang Chengrui tightly as he did just now, and Ouyang Chengrui was still struggling desperately, wanting to extinguish the everlasting lamp.
I'm really afraid that Ouyang Chengrui will break free and put out the lights.
"What are you afraid of, Dao Ye has the strength." The monk brought Ouyang Chengrui's head close to the lantern, and the distance was only half a meter away. Teasing Ouyang Cheng Rui, he said: "Pounce over, Dao Ye see how you pounce." ”
Ouyang Chengrui saw that the ever-bright light was not far away, and he became more and more fierce and struggled even more. But no matter how hard you struggle, you can't get rid of the monk's hands, which shows that the monk's strength is indeed not small.
"How is it, Daoye, I ...... strength"
"Poof..."
The monk was about to show off proudly, but Ouyang Chengrui no longer struggled, but blew fiercely at the ever-bright lamp.
The ever-bright lantern was blown out like this, so far away!
For a while, we were all stupid, looking at the extinguished lantern, but we didn't react. Only Ouyang Chengrui showed a cold smile in the monk's arms, and the laughter was harsh and ugly.
"The king... Eight... Egg! At this moment, the monk finally knew that he had overplayed, yelled, and threw away Ouyang in his arms.
We also reacted and hurriedly began to pack our things, all trying to get out of here quickly.
"Run, run." Atai supported Ouyang Chengrui and began to flee.
"Jump..."
There was a loud bang that completely frightened us all.
I saw a white 'egg' falling from the banyan tree, the 'egg' was the size of an ostrich, very heavy, and it made a loud noise when it landed.
"Don't move." The fifth uncle hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop us from running around.
Looking at the big egg in front of me, I felt a chill in my head and hurriedly looked up at the dim overhead. Will this tree still lay 'eggs'? Such a big and heavy 'egg', if it is hit, it will be over in an instant.
