Chapter Eighty-Five: How to Kill the Mind Eater
Thank you Prince Dan for your big tip
………………………
Wang Hongwei returned to the room, put the plate in his hand on the table, and while eating the apple, he walked to the suitcase, bent down and picked up the notebook.
Take the notebook back to the table, throw the leftover kernel into the trash, wipe the water stains on your hands, then open the notebook and press the power button.
Looking at the picture displayed on the computer screen, he reached out and broke a banana, and waited for it to turn on while eating.
After the laptop was turned on, Wang Hongwei directly clicked on the chat software twice, and after logging in, he found the fat uncle and clicked on the video directly, waiting for the connection.
After dozens of minutes, the video was connected, and an image of the fat uncle came from the side, Wang Hongwei put the banana cigarette in his mouth down and said hello: "Yo! Good evening. ”
"Bastard." The fat uncle raised his head, took off the eyes on the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose, let his eyes rest for a while, and only opened his eyes after a while, and then glared at Wang Hongwei, who was hippie and smiling.
"How is Uncle Fat's investigation, have you found any specific clues about the Mind Eater?" Wang Hongwei laughed twice, didn't talk about anything homely, and asked straight to attention.
"Found it, I was almost exhausted trying to find this thing." The fat uncle couldn't help but complain twice, then got up and left his seat, and after a while, came back with a very quaint book in his hand.
The book looks very old, it is not made of paper, it is actually made of sheepskin.
The fat uncle put his eyes on, and then opened the parchment, the pages were already yellowed, and the words on it were not Chinese, but countless letters, as if they were English, French and other languages.
However, after Wang Hongwei saw the font on the book through the video, he immediately recognized that it was Latin.
"Found it." After turning a few pages, the fat uncle stopped, slid his fingers down the page, and said slowly: "The Mind Eater is a very magical, but very evil and cruel creature. ”
"The Mind Eater is not a monster in his life, but an ordinary human being, between fifteen and twenty-five years old, if he encounters excessive mood swings, he will uncontrollably awaken and become a new Mind Eater, if he does not awaken during this time..."
Speaking of Uncle Fat, he turned the page and continued: "The bloodline of the Hearteater will disappear forever, and this person will not become a Hearteater in the future, but will only become an ordinary human." ”
"Hah! There are still such monsters in this world!? When Wang Hongwei heard this, he paused for a moment, his expression was very surprised, he had dealt with a lot of monsters, but this was the first time he had heard of such a monster.
"Don't interrupt." The fat uncle glared at Wang Hongwei.
"Uh... You continue. Wang Hongwei threw away the banana peel in his hand, reached out and took the fruit from the plate, ate it, and motioned to the fat uncle to continue.
Uncle Fat continued: "After the mind eater awakens, his right arm will become two to three times the size of an ordinary person, and his strength will also increase, his teeth will become longer and sharper, like the fangs of a beast, and his face will be, like the legendary devil.
With the transformation after awakening, there will be a strong feeling of hunger, no matter what you eat or how much food you eat, you will not feel full, and as time passes, the hunger will get deeper and deeper, and there will be a strong bloodthirsty desire in your heart.
This feeling lasts for an hour, and if the Mind Eater survives this time, he will be able to control himself on his own, if..."
Speaking of this, the fat uncle paused, and when he saw the content behind, his brows furrowed, as if he was sorting out his language.
After a few seconds, he continued: "If you can't hold this feeling, only by devouring the human heart will the mind eater be able to feel full, and the hunger and bloodthirsty desire will subside.
However, most, ninety-nine percent of the Mind Eaters couldn't survive that time, and in the end, they all followed their own body instincts, ate human hearts, and completed the transformation from humans to Mind Eaters. ”
Uncle Fat turned the page again: "After the Mind Eater awakens, eating the hearts of human beings Although the hunger is gone, it only lasts for a month, and after a month, the hunger will strike again, forcing the Mind Eater to kill and devour the heart." ”
"Do they have to eat human hearts? Isn't it okay for other animals? Wang Hongwei suddenly asked.
When the fat uncle heard this, he shook his head: "This book says that this mind eater is like a drug addict, only by taking drugs, that is, the human heart, the heart of other animals cannot, only by eating the human heart, their unbearable feeling will subside." ”
However, the book says that the Mind Eater needs to awaken between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five, and for this special reason, the number is getting smaller and smaller, and it has been confirmed to be extinct four hundred years ago.
It's really good luck that you can meet it this time, hahaha~ You can go buy lottery tickets, and you can bump into things that have been extinct for 400 years. The fat uncle said, and couldn't help but ridicule Wang Hongwei.
"Cut! You didn't ask me to come over yet. Wang Hongwei heard Uncle Fat's ridicule, rolled his eyes, and asked, "That book records the situation of the Mind Eater in such detail, then it should have said how to kill them." ”
"Well, there is a way to kill the Mind Eater, you need to find the branch of the Hollow Tree, then smear it with the blood of the person killed by the Mind Eater, and finally stab it into the heart of the Mind Eater to be able to kill it." The fat uncle looked at the book and said.
"What is a hollow tree?" Wang Hongwei asked, he knew a lot of trees, such as willows, oaks, pines or something, hollow trees, he had heard of it for the first time.
"Stinky boy, the hollow tree is not a species of tree, but a name, and all trees can be hollow trees." Uncle Fat felt a little embarrassed for Wang Hongwei's loneliness.
"What's that hollow tree?" Wang Hongwei scratched the back of his head, not understanding what the fat uncle meant.
"A hollow tree is a big tree without a heart, as long as the center of the tree in the middle of the tree is an empty tree, no matter what the original name of the tree is, it can be called a hollow tree." The fat uncle explained to Wang Hongwei.
When Wang Hongwei heard this, he blurted out: "There is an empty tree in the middle!?" Isn't the tree dead? ”
"You....you....forget it, you go check it yourself, I can't explain it to you." The fat uncle saw that Wang Hongwei didn't understand and wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say, so he sent Wang Hongwei directly and asked him to check it on the Internet by himself.
Wang Hongwei heard what Uncle Fat said, directly reduced the video, then clicked on the web page, typed the word 'hollow tree' on the search bar, and searched for it.
Soon appeared, a lot of search results, Wang Hongwei rummaged through it, and then clicked into a website, which explained in detail how the hollow tree exists.
'Hollow tree: As the trunk of the old tree gradually thickens, it is less and less difficult for the wood in the middle of the trunk to get oxygen and nutrients, and the heartwood of the old tree may gradually die. In the absence of antiseptic substances, the core of the tree will gradually decay once bacteria invade or rainwater seeps through the wounds in the trunk. Over time, this will cause the trunk to hollow.
Although the core of the hollow tree is completely dead, the tree is lush and vibrant. ’
In addition, the website also says that there are hollow trees there, but the places are very remote.
"Fat uncle, this search for this hollow tree on the Internet, it seems that they are all hundreds of years old, and they are all protected, where can I find that kind of old tree?" After Wang Hongwei finished reading the general introduction of the hollow tree, he enlarged the video and asked Uncle Fat for help.
"Hey! I said you're stupid, you're really stupid? As long as there is a hollow tree, do you have to be that big? The hollow trees you find on the Internet are all hundred-year-old trees with large hollow hearts, wouldn't you look for a small hollow tree? The fat uncle roared with hatred that iron is not made of steel.
"Uh...."Wang Hongwei felt the same when he heard this, and shook his head, feeling that he had suddenly become stupid.
"By the way, the book also says that the Mind Eater is very cunning, much smarter than humans in some ways, and very good at hiding, so you must not be careless." The fat uncle suddenly commanded.
"Got it, don't worry, I'm measured, let's not talk about it yet, I seem to know where there is a hollow tree, fat uncle, you go to bed early, bye." After speaking, Wang Hongwei seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said goodbye to the fat uncle, then hung up the video, and then buckled the notebook.
