Chapter 13: The Heart-Eating Tree

The number of the fallen guy is nine, so the people around him call him Xiao Jiu, and when he saw that Xiao Jiu had fallen, and his expression was quite painful, the other team members immediately surrounded him, and two people seemed to know how to treat the guy, and they began to treat this guy with their hands and feet, and the team was forced to stop.

"Little brother-in-law, he has been poisoned by the Heart-Eating Tree, be careful yourself, and when you see red leaves, stay out of the way, don't touch them."

I nodded, and promised with my mouth, but my heart was very unsteady, because I had seen the indirectness of this heart-eating tree in a book before, which said that this tree was first produced in a primeval forest in South America, with a trunk three meters high and white all over, and above the trunk were branches that increased layer by layer in multiples of three, endlessly.

There was once a scientist who stumbled into the primeval forest while traveling, and he saw this kind of tree, but out of curiosity, he touched the trunk with his hand, and something very terrible happened.

From the trunk of the tree, suddenly a lot of white infusion tube-like things came out, they seemed to have eyes, very quickly adsorbed on the scientist's hand, and then kept injecting white liquid into his subcutaneous tissue, the scientist was very calm-minded, he immediately decided, pulled out a dagger of his own, and cut off his wrist.

Thanks to his timely move, although he lost a hand, his life was saved.

Because then he saw that his severed hand was firmly sucked on the trunk by these white veins, and then it began to turn white and swollen, and then the white liquid would flow down the pores, and then it would dry and blacken.

The scientist later managed to return to his own country, he paid for a street man who could write, and he hired him to write his own recorder, and for three years, he recorded all the experiences and what he had seen and heard in half his life, and then compiled them into a book and stored them in the British Museum.

Later, for unknown reasons, the rubbings of this travelogue suddenly appeared at an auction and was later bought by a mysterious buyer.

In the past, in Panjiayuan, there was a person who was looking for Li Ye of Panjiayuan to pick up the goods, and inadvertently said that he had an ancestral rubbing and wanted to show gloves, and Li Ye agreed at that time, and as a result, this rubbing appeared in Li Ye's house, and I went to find Li Ye again, so I had a relationship with this rubbing.

The Heart-Eating Tree is exactly what is recorded on that rubbing.

There are no flowers and no fruits, it is natural, and everywhere you go, it is barren.

This kind of tree is highly poisonous, and people who are poisoned will be slowly tortured to death, and the poison is so violent, there is no chance to configure an antidote, and the poisoned person will definitely die.

When I thought of this, the two team members who had diagnosed Xiao Jiu before raised their heads together, looked at He Chen, who was standing on the side waiting, and shook their heads silently.

Mr. Xiao He immediately frowned and was about to come over to check in person, but was stopped by the black man beside him, and the two of them were talking something we didn't understand, as if it was Spanish.

Zhang Shiyang stood beside me and whispered: "The black man said, there are strange things here, it is better to retreat first." ”

I looked at him, meaning you can understand what they say?

Zhang Shiyang nodded at me and moved his mouth, "I know six Chinese, you didn't expect it." ”

I also moved my mouth, "It's not important, you tell me first, what's going on with you in the ancient city of Loulan." ”

Zhang Shiyang leaned over and whispered, "It's not much, we were arrested, and I escaped." ”

"Gone?"

"It's gone."

I know that this kid is very stubborn, if he doesn't want to say it, I guess it's useless to torture all 36 ways, so I won't pursue it anymore.

At this time, Mr. Xiao He and the black man's bird talk ended, and Zhang Shiyang explained to me: "That Xiao He boss suspects that there are internal ghosts in these people, and he suspects that someone is deliberately causing trouble, the purpose is to stop us from advancing."

I thought about it for a moment and asked, "What else?" ”

Zhang Shiyang shook his head, spread his hands and made a super innocent gesture, and said, "No, the rest is that they are discussing the question of who the inner ghost is." ”

I snorted in my heart, and said that there can't be an inner ghost in this, if there really is, it is estimated that Zhang Shiyang and I are the most suspicious, after all, the two of us are outsiders, in this team, all the guys have been staying with him, living and sleeping together, this kind of relationship is not something that can be cultivated overnight.

I don't know who shouted to lie down in the chaos, and then everyone followed inexplicably, and then I felt the top part of my head start to blow violently, as if a giant python rushed over, and everyone lay on the ground motionless in a suffocating fishy smell.

It was about thirty minutes later, I don't remember, anyway, it felt like a long, long time, and I was scared, so my legs were weak, and I couldn't stand up after trying a few times.

I was depressed and waiting to find some reason to speak for myself, but I never thought that this was the only way for the giant python to go through the Yin Si to break through the heavens, and in this way, our direction would not be wrong.

"Mr. Ye, what's wrong with you, are your legs numb or your feet numb?"

I shook my head, saying nothing, and then reluctantly stood up, scolding myself for when I had become so timid.

However, at this moment, a fellow shouted for us to lie down again, and I was pressed down by a big hand on my head, and the sound of whirring wind appeared in my ears again, and then the fishy smell finally disappeared again.

After tossing and turning like this more than a dozen times, the sky was dawning.

When I stood up from the ground with Zhang Shiyang's shoulder, I glanced at the sky, and the morning light was already visible, and it would not be long before the sun would come out.

With the help of natural light, I can see the terrain around me clearly.

This is a forest that is only about half a meter high, and it is also because I see that there are many dwarf trees growing here, with peach-shaped leaves, growing staggered with each other, gradually forming a large green net, and we can only walk in it if these intertwined vines are scattered, or even broken, and only so smoothly walked, otherwise we don't want to get out alive just because of these.

As soon as I heard this, the expression of relief on my face changed instantly, because I saw that under my feet, there was a bright red plant growing wildly.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way." I yelled as I started getting into the car myself.

It stands to reason that shouldn't be the case here, and then I felt the fishy smell come back, and it was around here. (To be continued.) )
