Chapter Seventy-Six: The Oni Vine Flower Body
Wenmo's sudden shout made us all stunned for a moment. But in a place like this, even if we were to run, how could we run! Still, we took a few steps back.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from Anado, I turned my head to look, and found that when she retreated, her heel tripped on the branch, and her body suddenly lost its center of gravity, I was worried that she would fall directly from the tree, so I immediately pounced on her and pulled her, but there was still some distance between me and him, and there was really a helplessness beyond the reach of the whip.
Fortunately, Anado's reaction speed was fast enough, and she immediately turned around, so that she could see the situation under her feet clearly, and then snatched forward, reached out and hugged a tree trunk in front of her, and after Anado hugged it, I saw clearly that the trunk she was holding was the same as the one she found in Lantern Xiao just now, and it was also a strange tree without bark.
I roughly estimated that, plus the one found in the Lantern Festival, plus one on Anado's side, there were at least seven or eight of these strange trees around us.
I was about to breathe a sigh of relief when I saw that Anadot was okay, but suddenly I heard Anado's scream again, and I saw her jump away from the strange tree at once, and then pointed to the strange tree, and said in a very frightened voice: "It, it's alive!" It moves!! ”
Anado's words surprised us all, and before we could fully react, we found that all these "strange trees" without bark were moving, and a very strange scene appeared around us, with thick "trunks" writhing like pythons.
I panicked and asked loudly, "This, what the hell is going on!" How the trees are alive! ”
Wen Mo turned around and jumped on a sturdy branch, looked at us and said, "These are ghost vines!" ”
"Such a thick ghost vine!!" Lantern Xiao exclaimed in surprise, "This is the ancestor of those ghost vine grandsons!" ”
At this time, the second uncle leaned his body against a normal big tree, and while being wary of the writhing huge ghost vines, he said: "This should be the tiger sting, that is, the main vine of the ghost vine flower you are talking about, which shows that the ghost vine flower itself is here!" ”
I immediately became nervous, and it seemed that this battle had not been avoided after all. Lantern Xiao looked a little excited, "Okay, come on, just calculate the new account and the old account together!" ”
As he spoke, the huge ghost vines around him writhed even more severely, and even the branches and leaves around us shook with it. Next, these thick trunks of the ghost vine flower actually waved with a "whirl", and one of them smashed down at my location. I dodged and jumped onto a nearby branch.
The surrounding ghost vine flower trunks also began to swing in different directions. For a while, the whole scene was very chaotic, broken branches and leaves flew sideways, fortunately, the speed of the main trunk of these ghost vine flowers is slower than the end of those ghost vines we saw before, which may have something to do with the volume, and the most important thing is that I don't think they seem to be in a hurry to kill us, so our situation is not very dangerous for the time being, but the more troublesome thing is that there are fewer and fewer branches we can stand on!
Lantern Xiao jumped between the branches with some effort, and shouted loudly: "Quick!! Let's go! Get out of here! ”
Actually, why don't I want to! I was looking for the gap between the two main ghost vines, and just as I was about to rush through, one of them suddenly fell horizontally, blocking my retreat at once. I quickly turned in another direction, but was also intercepted by the thick trunk oni vine. I couldn't help but cry out anxiously: "No! These guys don't seem to want us to leave! ”
It was as if we had fallen into an encirclement, and for a while there was no way to escape. And the encirclement was still shrinking, and soon several of us were forced to gather together. Just as we were about to deal with the final fatal blow of the Oni Vine Flower, these thick trunks suddenly slowed down the frequency of their swings. Just around us, from time to time whipping the branches and leaves of the trees next to us, we saw that many big trees were knocked down by them, but the one under our feet, they seemed to turn a blind eye.
Anador looked around, "What to do?" What are they doing here? Are you going to let us go? ”
The second uncle shook his head, "No, we are the food in their mouths!" They're just clearing the yard now. ”
When Lantern Xiao heard this, he was anxious: "MD wants to eat Lao Tzu!" As he spoke, he raised the pistol in his hand, "I want to eat Lao Tzu!" Who eats who doesn't have to say! ”
"Clearance? Why Clearance? I asked very strangely, "This ghost vine flower has to eat such a big meal!" ”
The second uncle shook his head, "There is only one reason why they are cleared, and that is that the main body is about to appear." Legend has it that when this oni vine flower encounters small prey, it can be absorbed through the oni vine's own sieve after being caught, but when the prey is too large or the number is relatively large, the main body will appear. ”
"Oh!" Lantern Xiao snorted coldly, "The body appeared in person, and it gave us face when I co-authored it, right?" ”
The second uncle glared at Lantern Xiao and said, "No one knows the specific situation of this ghost vine flower. I've only seen a few words in some ancient books, this creature has been extremely rare since ancient times, it belongs to the ancient xenomorph, and no one has seen it for thousands of years. ”
Lantern Xiao sighed, "In this way, we don't know how we will die for a while!" ”
At this time, Wen Mo looked down at the bottom, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "Be careful, it's coming!" ”
As soon as Wen Mo's words came out, everyone's faces instantly turned a little pale, and I took a deep breath a little nervously, but before this breath was even, the tree we were on suddenly shook violently.
I looked down and saw that a piece of land under the tree suddenly cracked, and Wenmo immediately said to us, "Quick!! From here! ”
But the form changed too quickly, which allowed us to take measures, the ground under the big tree suddenly uplifted, the whole tree suddenly tilted to the side, Lantern Xiao did not stand firm, and suddenly slipped down from the tree, fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, grabbed with one hand, just grabbed a branch, and his body was suspended in the air.
I wanted to rush over to save him, but the trunk of the tree suddenly tilted, and I couldn't protect myself, so I desperately held on to the trunk with both hands so that it didn't fall.
Wen Mo jumped over easily and reached out to pull Lantern Xiao up. But before he could stand firmly, the ground shook violently again, and except for Wenmo, who was still relatively calm, we were all like four koalas, clinging tightly to the trunk.
I took advantage of the shaking to calm down a little, and I looked down, and I was immediately shocked beyond measure, and I couldn't take my eyes off it at once.
In the soil that was turned and uplifted under the tree, I don't know when a lot of huge petal-like things stretched out, I think this is probably the body of the ghost vine flower, but I never dreamed that it was hidden in the ground, "This, and flowers can bloom in the ground?" ”
The second uncle grabbed the trunk of the tree hard and said, "Big nephew, this is not an ordinary flower, or maybe it is not a flower at all!" ”
I looked down with a surprised face, although the ghost vine flower itself has not completely drilled out of the ground, but its entire "corolla" is almost more than ten meters in diameter, and the petals on it are not light and thin sheets, but look very thick flesh wings, on the edge of the meat wings are sharp jagged thorns, like rows of fangs, looking at it makes people chill!
As the main body of the ghost vine flower gradually burrowed out of the ground, those heavy meat wings closed one by one, making the whole ghost vine flower look like a big mouth, about to eat us on the tree.
When the oni vine flower appeared completely on the ground, the big tree we were on was also uprooted, and the trunk fell down at once. Seeing that we were about to fall into the ghost vine flower, we didn't expect that this tree was too tall, and the trunk suddenly stood on top of other trees, and it didn't really fall.
The second uncle took advantage of this opportunity and shouted loudly: "Quick!! Go to another tree! ”
So everyone stepped on the sloping trunk and ran up, because I was in a lower position just now, so I suddenly became the last one, looking at the ghost vine flowers below with teeth and claws, I shivered, so I ran up as hard as I could.
Wen Mo held a steel needle in his hand and shot it out to both sides, in order to attract the attention of the main ghost vines on both sides. Just when we thought we were about to get out, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, a thick trunk ghost vine emerged and slammed into the trunk of the tree in front of me.
This time it was very fast, we were not prepared at all, the others shook violently, and almost fell, and I was the most unfortunate at the back. After the trunk was smashed, due to the reaction force, I rebounded quickly, and I was just a little further down from the fracture, and I was suddenly blown up by a high bullet, and then fell into the inside of the ghost vine flower.
To be honest, the inside of the oni vine flower is actually very soft, especially on the thick petals. But I instantly felt like I was falling into an ice cellar, and all of a sudden my whole body stiffened, and all the hairs on my body exploded. I saw that the stamen in the center of the vine flower seemed to be secreting this kind of mucus, and the surrounding petals were like sharp teeth, and my whole scalp was numb.
I started to run away like crazy, but the "petals" around the oni vine flower made it form a bowl-shaped structure, and the "petals" were stained with a lot of slime, mixed with your dirt, making its surface very slippery. I tried many times without success.
