Chapter 108: The Strange Thing Appears

I remember clearly, when I came in earlier, it was empty, there was nothing at all, how suddenly there was an extra piece of wood...

The wood in front of me looked like a rotten thick branch, about the thickness of an adult's arm, and the color was black, and it felt like a slight kick could kick it in two... The branch was about a meter away from the door, and it stood in the snow, and I don't know how long it was up, and the door was too small to see it. It feels like it's a branch artificially stuck in the snow...

Could it be that someone sneaked after me, and when I entered the house, stuck such a branch in the snow at the door? What is the purpose of the other party? …

Although it was dark, there were no stars and no moon, but the ground was full of snow and white flowers. By the light of the snow, I could clearly tell that the footprints I had left on the snow when I was outside had been buried in the snow. Other than that, there are no other people's footprints. In this way, this branch was not artificially inserted in the snow, so it fell from the sky? …

I was thinking wildly in my head, staring at the branch that appeared out of thin air outside, the more I looked at it, the more strange I felt, and cold sweat involuntarily broke out of the tip of my nose... In this way, I squatted for five or six minutes, not daring to move, not moving the branch. I couldn't help it, and my heart said, I'm here to catch evil spirits, and I'm frightened by a branch, and I don't dare to go out when I stay in this dark room. … Thinking of this, I bit my lip and comforted myself by saying that this was just a branch, which may have been blown to the roof by the strong wind before, and when I opened this door just now, it was shaken off the roof and stuck in the snow...

Thinking about it this way, I felt quite reasonable, and my courage immediately grew, and I said, whether this is a branch or not, I leaned out and kicked it down first. I clenched my fist and poured all my strength into my right leg. Just as I was about to lean out and kick out, I suddenly heard a sound of 'bones', and the hairs on my body stood up all of a sudden, followed by another sound. This time, I heard it clearly, the noise was coming from this room...

I didn't care about the branches outside, so I instinctively turned my head, and my eyes swept around in the darkness, and finally landed on the black pumping machine in the middle of the room...

I plucked up my courage, pressed my phone to shine it, felt out a lonely rune, and cautiously, little by little, walked towards the pump... I don't know if I sensed my arrival, and the things in the pump stopped moving. Finally I came to the pump, I put my ear to listen, and then slowly squatted down, with the help of the fluorescence of my phone, I looked at the gap between the pump and the ground. With just one glance, I saw a pair of green eyes. Then, a furry thing jumped in my face.

Frightened, I jerked back, and my phone 'snapped' and fell to the ground. The thing struck between my legs like lightning and swooped out the door. I didn't bother to pick up my phone, so I hurried to the door and looked outside, where I saw a gray hare lying in the snow outside the door.

This is what popped out from under the pump, and the footprints I tracked earlier seemed to be left behind by it. But how did it jump out and then lie on the ground and not move? When I looked closely, I saw the rabbit lying on the ground, its hind legs trembling, it seemed to be afraid of something... Looking along the rabbit, I noticed that directly in front of the rabbit was the branch, was it afraid of the branch? … I watched in amazement, and suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, this branch is alive! …

I was taken aback by my sudden thought, and at that moment I heard a squeak, and then the hare's fur exploded, and it was twice as large as before. I saw its two hind legs desperately kicking the snow behind it, and its body twisted violently, as if it wanted to get rid of the control of some force, but no matter how it struggled, its body seemed to be frozen, and it couldn't move at all...

I stared at this incredible scene with wide eyes, there was nothing on this rabbit at all, but it couldn't move, could it have something to do with this branch? … As soon as this thought fell to me, I felt that my eyes were flowering, and the rabbit disappeared out of thin air! Just when I was wondering where it went, 'pop', something fell in the snow next to the branch, it was a drop of blood, and then, 'pop', another drop...

I suddenly understood... God... There's something on this branch, and it's eaten the rabbit! … Depending on the situation, the reason why this rabbit ran wild on a snowy night and then hid in this dark room should be because this branch, or something on the branch, was chasing it... What the hell is this? …

The white snow, reflecting the bright red blood, looks very eye-catching, and the blood drips in the snow, faintly still steaming...

I came back to my senses and said to myself, looking at the strange appearance of this thing, I don't know if it is the evil I am looking for, but I have never heard Master say that evil eats living things, and I can't sense the evil aura on this thing outside... The blood was still falling little by little, while it was still eating, I spread a lonely rune in the palm of my right hand, then covered it with my left hand, closed my eyes, calmed down, and silently recited the solitary void mantra, after three times, the talisman became hot in my hand, I burst into a loud cry, and knocked the talisman out.

With a loud 'boom', snow droplets flew outside. After the Lonely Void Rune is triggered by a spell, it will generate a huge amount of energy when it encounters something unclean, so it can be seen that this thing on the outside is an unclean thing.

When the snow stopped flying, I looked out and saw that the snow was empty, and the thing was gone.

After coming out of the house, I saw that the snow was still dripping one after another, and I looked around, and it was misty. Although it was very powerful, my intuition told me that it had not been removed. On the ground, a crater had been blasted out of the place where it had landed, and nothing else.

I looked around, my eyes piercing through the misty snow curtain and landing on the canal behind the house. At present, this canal is twice as wide as the one above, and the slope of the canal wall is also repaired with blue bricks. In the distance, there was a faint black thing.

I slid down the slope and into the channel. Stepping on soft snow is like stepping on thick cotton. Step by step to the thing, I crouched down and saw that it was half a hare, its fur covered in blood, its cavity empty, and its entrails gone. I touched it with my hand, it was warm, it should have been abandoned here when I didn't finish eating that thing just now, and I fled. This aqueduct leads to the ditch, and I have the feeling that it must be going in the direction of the ditch.

I stood up and walked down the ditch with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and soon came to the ditch. The ditch was very narrow, the channel was very shallow, and the embankment was not very high, so I climbed the embankment and looked up, and saw a forest on the embankment diagonally opposite, and it looked very dense. This area is bare, only the forest is suitable for hiding, I wonder if that thing will hide in the woods.

With this in mind, I went down the embankment, crossed the ditch, and came to the forest. Every tree in this forest was covered with snow, and it looked white. Due to the thick branches, there is not a lot of snow on the ground in the forest, and many places are bare and dusty, and it looks black. Looking deep in the forest, the snow foam floated in the forest, like a heavy fog. In short, this forest feels eerie and very eerie.

I didn't dare to be careless, so I took the rune and the seven-star sword in my hand, and carefully stepped into the forest. I heard the sound of the trees being pressed by the snow everywhere. The snowflakes hit the branches, scattering the kind of snow foam like dust, and when you inhale it, it is cold in your nose, and with every inhale, the coolness jumps straight up your head. Feet on fallen leaves, making a 'hissing' sound, as if something was panting underneath. Every nerve in my body tensed, over a tree, another tree...

Suddenly, I felt the 'hissing' sound of the leaves under my feet seem to be much louder than before, and even when I stopped, the 'hissing' sound continued. My gut told me that something was wrong. Finally, I heard clearly, the extra 'hiss' sound came from above...

When I looked up, I saw that about three or four meters in front of me, there was a black branch between the two trunks, and the branch was shaking one by one... I had a strong instinct in my heart that the branch in front of me was the same thing that had stood outside the door of the house before. I hurriedly slammed the Lonely Void Rune, and before I could finish the incantation, I heard a 'cluck' sound, and the branches of the tree came in my direction, and the snow from the tree fell with a clatter. Caught off guard, I took a puff of snow into my lungs and choked on it. Then, the snow fell into my eyes, and I couldn't see anything at once.

Immediately afterward, I felt a dark wind coming over my head, and I was so shocked that I didn't have time to think or rub my eyes. Eagerly backing up, I hit a tree with a bang, fell to the ground, I rolled and tumbled, hit several trees, and finally got out of the woods by feeling. As I went into the forest first, I remembered that there seemed to be a tree pit in the distance on my left. At this moment, by feeling, I went in the direction of the tree pit, rolled four or five times, and I fell into the tree pit.

Rubbing my eyes vigorously, I was finally able to see things, and I noticed that the pit was quite deep. Climbing up the pit wall, I looked carefully, and the sight in front of me was so frightened that I almost didn't scream...

I saw that about four or five meters away from this tree pit, there was a monster, and it was clearly a snake, a snake standing upright on the snow, rotting and rotting...
