Chapter 13: Corpse Grass

After walking all the way to the west for about five or six hours, the surroundings became unusually quiet, and the fat man seemed to find something wrong, "Wang Wu, have you noticed it, the more we go inside, the quieter it becomes, as if the mountains and wild beasts have disappeared."

"That's right, it's really evil, it stands to reason that the more you go inside, the more flying insects and beasts there should be, and it's really quiet and a little scary." I frowned and looked around.

"Everyone be careful, there may be danger" The grass around us has reached the position of our shoulders, and the silent blades of the primeval forest slowly block our progress, Ah Fa took the sapper shovel in front to open the way, the fat man followed, and I cushioned behind.

"It's strange to say, the grass here is still really fucking high, and it's really rare to see it in other places. Forget about the high, it's so fucking hard and sharp. The fat man took the bandage in the backpack and complained about bandaging his left hand, it turned out that the fat man had just pulled up the grass on the side, and he used too much force, and the grass was not pulled up but was cut by the grass.

"Fatty, I said can you stop, you can walk about three hours or so to reach Black Dog Ridge, you must go before dark, otherwise it will be difficult to have a bad night." There is always a feeling of uneasiness in my heart, I ignore the fat man following behind Ah Fa, the surrounding grass and trees appear more and more dark green, at a glance there is no end in sight, if we walk here now, it is a very fatal thing to lose, a slight breeze is coming, the grass suddenly rises and falls like a surging wave, wave after wave swaying, "rustling" dancing, now around three o'clock in the afternoon the sun is still very dazzling, at this moment look at the grass in front of it like a sharp iron knife upside down in the soil.

"Oh, it's painful to kill the fat man," it turned out that the fat man tripped over the grass in front of him and fell to the ground, and fell a dog to eat, "The fat man is okay" The fat man was in front of me, but at the moment he turned his back to me, sat on the ground without saying a word, looked down at something, I hurriedly stepped forward and found that the fat man was looking at a hare on the ground with all his attention, "Fat man, you can add dinner at night", the fat man still didn't answer me, or stared at the hare, and instantly understood in my heart that the fat man had found something.

"Wang Wu, we came all the way and now this is the first animal we found," the fat man's tone was a little gloomy, "Well, except for the appearance of small animals at the entrance of the village, the further back you go, the rarer it becomes." ”

"You know, why, because damn it, these beasts are all grass-eaten," the fat man looked as excited as if he had seen a ghost.

"Eaten by grass" Hearing the fat man's words, his face changed and he was shocked. Hurriedly lowered his body and squatted down, his eyes moved to the rabbit on the ground, picked up the dagger tied to his legs and feet, turned the rabbit on the ground, and saw that the appearance of the hare should have died for a long time, the blood had not yet solidified, and when he moved his eyes to the rabbit's abdomen, a chill ran straight to his head from the bottom of the footboard, and cold sweat instantly covered his forehead, and the hare's abdomen was densely pierced into it by dozens of grasses, as if dozens of steel knives made a hare instantly become a hedgehog.

"This is, this," I stammered unconsciously, the fat man was very calm at the moment, and suddenly picked up the dagger on his legs and feet, and stabbed at the hare's abdomen, a cold light flashed, and the hare was immediately cut open in the abdomen, and the scene in front of me was even more incredible, and the rustling sound of the surrounding grass and trees sounded like the sharpening of tens of thousands of steel knives at the moment.

When the hare's belly was torn open, no internal organs were found inside, and it was all grass, which was wrapped around like hydrangea balls. "These entrails were eaten, eaten, eaten by grass." The fat man was also a little overwhelmed when he saw the situation at the moment.

Staring at the grass wrapped around the belly of the hare, recalling if it had been said somewhere, the grass and trees were very common plants, and they didn't take it seriously since they entered the forest, and now they think about it carefully, and it seems that they have seen this kind of grass somewhere.

"It's corpse grass", I remembered, there was an introduction in the coffin Mingjian, the so-called corpse grass is a tropical plant, it has not appeared for hundreds of years, this grass will exude a faint fragrance, this aroma is not poisonous, but it will paralyze the nerves of people and animals, so that people unconsciously hallucinate and sleepy, and when they fall asleep, the corpse grass will enter the body along the blood vessels of the person, sucking the internal organs and blood of the human body, but it is very strange that the flesh will not decay in the process of suction, and the hare looks like it has not been long dead, but it may have died a few days ago, but now the corpse grass has not been absorbed.

When the fat man heard me say this, he immediately looked around very vigilantly, "His grandmother's, this bit of bullshit grass wants the fat man's life, see if they can be put away." After speaking, he picked up the sapper shovel on the side and waved it around, "Fat man, stop, look what is down there." I hurriedly interrupted the fat man and pointed to the ground that was cut off by the fat man, "One, two, three... Damn it, it's all human bones, and there are all kinds of animal bones scattered among them," the fat man exclaimed, and the sappers in his hands held it as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Don't waste your physical strength, fat man, this corpse grass won't be active during the day, and it's hard to say when it gets dark, let's hurry up and get out of here." The fat man and I got up and packed our gear and prepared to run out, "Wait, Fat Man, wasn't he just ahead of you?" ”

"Ah Fa is not here, hey, Ah Fa, where did you kid go, get out of here, the master is leaving." The fat man yelled around, his voice quickly drowned out by the corpse grass in all directions. A big living person suddenly disappeared, Ah Fa will not leave for no reason, something must have happened, the atmosphere began to become weird, it is now about four o'clock, and the sun will go down in less than two hours, me and the fat man also seem a little heavy at the moment, the first time I came out, I didn't even find the target and lost a person, I didn't talk to anyone with the fat man, so I waited quietly for five or six minutes.

"Ah Fa, this kid may be fascinated by the corpse grass, and the fragrance emitted by this thing doesn't have much effect on ordinary people, but Ah Fa has always been timid and can be fascinated." I said to the fat man in a bit of a hurry.

"What now?"

"Go find Ah Fa first, if you can't find it once it gets dark, Ah Fa will die nine times out of ten."

This time, I opened the way in front of me, and the fat man was behind me, and both of them focused on observing the surroundings, "There are traces of someone walking on this grass just now, as long as you follow these traces, you will definitely find Ah Fa." ”

"I hope so, fat man, I lost a lot this time, and I forgot to leave a will when I left, youth, life, little pink." The fat man's voice looked a little plaintive.

In this way, the two of them carefully walked for more than ten minutes with traces, "Shh, don't make a sound, the fat man is silent, there is movement ahead, it may be Ah Fa." I leaned over and whispered to the fat man, who also stopped and looked ahead, and there seemed to be something turning in the grass more than ten meters in front of him, and from time to time there was a whirring panting sound.

The fat man was immediately happy when he heard this, and said with a smile, "This kid won't fall asleep here." ”

I was not as happy as the fat man, the uneasiness in my heart became more and more obvious, I gestured to the fat man, asked him to shut up, and slowly pushed away the corpse grass on the side with the sapper shovel, one step, two steps, and the cat slowly approached the pile of grass with his waist.

The sapper shovel with his right hand raised leaned forward.
