15. The Tree of Life

The combination of soda and ketchup was definitely the worst thing I'd ever drunk in my life, and I barely managed to pour all the two jars of disgusting stuff Qiao Wei had brought back, and ate a whole piece of fried beef and a small bowl of duck blood soup.

I have to say that the latter two things are still very good.

After eating and drinking, my craving for blood also completely subsided, there was no fragrance wafting out of Xiaoxiao's body, and I couldn't hear my heartbeat at all, and I completely returned to normal. More precisely, it was a temporary return to normal, and if I didn't want to be plagued by hemophilia every day for the rest of my life, I would have to go back to Fangjia Village again.

My blood is definitely poison to the Blood Tree, and while I don't know exactly what caused this, it would be a shame not to put it to good use.

Things like ketchup, soda, beef, etc., can get me out of my blood addiction for a while, but they don't keep me out of the sun, so we have to act at night. So after a short break, we immediately started to prepare, and the first task was to collect blood.

According to what Sun Jian said, there were about 100 people in the village, and Qiao Wei took a whole beaker of my blood, and then bought four bags of more than 100 marshmallows, and then put these marshmallows in my blood to let them fully suck blood, turning them into more than 100 blood marshmallows rich in my blood.

In addition to the marshmallows that were going to be stuffed into the mouths of the villagers, we also prepared ten syringes with my blood in them, and even the dagger was soaked in blood, as if it had attached a layer of poison to the dagger. Once we were ready, we put them in our fanny packs and carried them with us.

Xiaoxiao won't go with me and Qiao Wei, but she also has a mission, if we don't come back after dawn, then she has to call the police immediately, and it's best to call the Center for Health and Disease Prevention and tell them everything in Fangjia Village. The division of labor was clear, and everything that should be prepared was completed, and Qiao Wei and I immediately set off to Fangjia Village.

After the car drove out of the city, I asked Qiao Wei how he was when he approached the bloody forest we had visited for the first time.

Qiao Wei replied that his mind was a little unclear at that time, it felt like a bomb in his body was about to explode, and there was a voice that kept talking in his head, guiding him to a specific place, and that voice said that there was the end.

I didn't hear the voice Qiao Wei was talking about, it was clear that it was something similar to telepathy, or telepathic communication, used by the Blood Tree golems to communicate with each other.

Hemophilia, Zombie Blood Tree, Blood Tree Golem...... And so all the strange things started with the blood Tai Sui dug up under the Wang family's house. As the saying goes, Tai Sui's head is not known to live or die, the Wang family's family not only moved the soil on Tai Sui's head, but his children also took Tai Sui's mouthful, and Zuihou's family also patted Tai Sui's whole thing.

Perhaps the old man in the village had a point, and their unreasonable actions angered Tai Sui, so the village suffered retribution.

"Do you know what Tai Sui is?" I asked Qiao Wei as I drove.

"It is said that Tai Sui is the incarnation of the star king in the sky on the earth, simply the body of the gods, so Tai Sui cannot move the ground on his head, otherwise it will cause disaster. However, I have been learning yin-yang ghost art in Bazhai Hall for so many years, and I have never heard of what Tai Sui really looks like, and my mother has never told me about Tai Sui, let alone Tai Sui turning people into vampires and what zombie trees there are. ”

"Why don't you give Xiao Guo a call and ask? Isn't she called an encyclopedia? ”

"I'm fighting?"

"I'm driving, of course you." I said.

Qiao Wei sighed helplessly, and then dialed Xiao Guo's phone.

Qiao Wei's call with Xiao Guo was very brief, and we were all disappointed, and Xiao Guo didn't know anything about Tai Sui, she said that maybe we had encountered something new, and told Qiao Wei that if he figured out the reason, he must tell her. I think her "encyclopedia" must have been formed by her connections.

As Fangjia Village approached, I also began to get nervous. Although Qiao Wei and I have weapons in our hands to deal with the Blood Tree Golem, it is not an easy task for two people to fight against more than a hundred people, so we have to play a little strategy, such as capturing the thief and capturing the king first.

"Have you seen the Avatar?" I asked Qiao Wei.

"I've seen it, big pigtailed blue aliens."

"Remember the oversized tree inside? The big pigtailed blue aliens inside don't seem to leave the tree even if they die. ”

"So you think there's a tree of life in the Blood Grove as well?" Qiao Wei asked.

I nodded and said, "All the Blood Tree Golems must not be too far away from Fangjia Village, otherwise they will explode in a specific place and then turn into dry roots, I believe that there must be more than one Blood Forest full of remnant souls." This is not important, the important problem is that these blood tree puppets can't leave the village, I think there is only one reason, there is a central unit similar to the tree of life in the village, this central unit controls every move of these blood tree puppets, and the mental interaction of the blood tree puppets also depends on this central unit. ”

"Sounds reasonable!" Qiao Wei also nodded and said, "It's probably really a tree, so it can't move, so you can only let these puppets revolve around it." ”

"Well, that's what I want to say! So I thought we might want to go to the back mountain first and see if we could find the 'Tree of Life', and if we could give my blood directly to the 'Tree of Life', I thought it would be done once and for all. ”

Qiao Wei thought that my solution was feasible, so we didn't continue to drive in the direction of Fangjia Village after turning off the highway, but found a hidden dark bush on the way and parked the car next to it, and then the two of us walked around Fangjia Village until we came to the woods where we met the bloodsucking children during the day.

The woods were dark and the moonlight was blocked by the dense branches, but my eyes quickly adapted to the darkness and could see everything around me even without a flashlight.

"Do you think that tree is the tree of life?" Qiao Wei lowered his voice and asked me.

"How do I know, why don't you try to summon souls? Ask the ghost? I proposed.

Qiao Wei swallowed his saliva and glanced around in circles.

There must be hundreds of trees in this woods, and if each one of them was born from a living person, then this is a mass grave, and it may not be a good idea to summon spirits here.

But to my surprise, Qiao Wei nodded after thinking for a moment and said, "Then use the soul summoning to decide!" ”

"Are you sure? I'm just saying it casually! ”

"Not sure, but there doesn't seem to be any other way around it now. Don't you take all the things you need with you? ”

"Take it." I touched the airsoft that had always been pinned to my waist.

"Then it's done, if the summoned ghost wants to attack the two of us, then we will fight back, I wonder if there should be no ghost king in this kind of place. If it's a lonely ghost in the sand, it shouldn't be a threat to the two of us, yes. ”

Qiao Wei said that he had no confidence at all, but at this point, I have nothing to fear, even if I really meet the ghost king, it is better to fight than to be a vampire for the rest of my life. So I also strengthened my attitude and responded, "Then call!" It's a big deal! ”
