Chapter 116 Hungry Bone Ascaris
In fact, he really wanted to look at Wu Xingyuan like he did with Ruiyan at the beginning, and he must have understood it with his scheming.
But the Eagle King beside him has a cunning temperament, and he has a pair of sharp eyes, even if he is facing away from himself, it may be difficult to hide his eyes if he rashly makes some small movements.
Once he finds out, it will definitely kill everyone, making Chu You dare not take risks.
And for Wu Xingyuan, refusing to hand over the spring water is an excellent natural reaction, and the more fierce the resistance, the more seamless it can be. I just pray that he won't be too impulsive and won't be stupid enough to hit a stone with an egg and face the Eagle King with death.
While he was thinking, Wu Xingyuan had already made a move. However, it was the situation that Chu You was most afraid of, and he saw that he was carrying the dark gold ancient knife and rushed directly towards the Eagle King.
He ran and cracked the ground under his feet until he jumped up and slashed down from the sky with the ancient knife. The edge of the knife glowed with black light, making Chu You feel that even a mountain seemed to be able to split.
"Looks like you're not going to die. The Eagle King's face was slightly angry.
Seeing the figure jumping down from the sky, his wings suddenly flicked, and he appeared in front of Wu Xingyuan out of thin air like almost teleportation. With both hands stretched out, two eagle talons pinched his shoulders one left and one right, and there was a sore tooth tearing sound with a slight force.
"I would love to kill you. ”
The Eagle King's grim face was in front of Wu Xingyuan, his eyes full of viciousness.
But as he spoke, he didn't exert any more force in his hands. He just put his face close to his ear and said in an inaudible voice, "But rather than kill you, I hope that when I break through the Bone City in the near future, I will make you surrender to me." ”
After speaking, the eagle claw turned, followed Wu Xingyuan's arm all the way down, and took away the black ring on his hand.
The Eagle King who got the ring appeared in front of Chu You almost teleported, and the strong wind he carried made him unable to open his eyes for a long time.
"How do I verify that this is true. He asked coldly.
"The Sen Luo Ghost King must have explained the characteristics of the Soul Burning Spring, and you can see it at a glance with your eyes. ”
"Well, I hope you didn't lie to me. ”
The Eagle King snorted coldly, took out the ring and destroyed the brand on it casually, and then stretched out his hand and shook it, and a pitch-black altar appeared out of thin air and fell in front of him.
Patting off the mud seal on it, carefully uncovering the wine cloth, a pool of crystal clear spiritual spring water comes into view.
When he looked carefully, he saw that there were no waves in the ancient well, and no matter how sharp his eyes were, he couldn't find any impurities in the water. It is colorless and odorless when you smell it carefully, and you can't feel any breath when you close your eyes, as if it is empty and does not exist.
"How? It's the same as the Ghost King's description. ”。
"Yes. ”
The Eagle King looked up at Chu You, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. It took a brief moment of hesitation before I made up my mind.
With their wings spread, they soared into the sky and swept away into the distance.
After seeing the Eagle King walk away, the group of people was also relieved. Only then did Chu You, who was seriously injured, urge Shura's blood qi to heal his injuries.
At the same time, Wu Xingyuan, who was not far away, also walked over.
"Boss Wu..."
Chu You was about to explain, but saw that he stretched out his hand and signaled that he didn't need to say anything more.
"I know it's your ploy, I just want to know what your future holds. ”
Looking at Wu Xingyuan's deep eyes, he suddenly understood that he had seen everything well in the morning. Even the sworn appearance is pretending to cooperate with himself.
The amazement in my heart deepened a little.
"Say it. The fat ghost also rushed over and said with a grin.
"This... Hey, hey!"
Seeing this, Chu You also smiled: "I found the Burning Soul Spring, but I didn't necessarily only find an altar." ”
.....
The vast desert was darkened by a red sun close to the horizon, and the sky and the earth were the colors of the afterglow. As far as the eye can see, in the evening sunset, the sea of sand calms down, and the remnant clouds are torn into desolate pieces.
The vast heaven and earth were in stark contrast to the tragic remnant clouds, and Chu You didn't know why no matter where the clouds were, they would be dyed with blood by the setting sun.
He loved to look at the clouds, as he remembered in his childhood.
When I grew up, I also saw clouds in many places, such as beside the steps of the imperial palace when I was in the world, in the fog of Liangshan and the side of the cliff, or in the Gobi stone in the Hungry Ghost Road, in the treetops of the ghost forest, and in the Shura Road.
Although the environment is very different in each place, the clouds on the horizon are all desolate, like a lawsuit against life.
Thousands of thoughts were accompanied by a jolt, and today he was watching the sunset on the horse.
This is the seventh day of their journey, and they will have two more days to reach their destination, "Blood City".
Three bony horses galloped, their shadows dragged long by the setting sun, and they swept over the dry and hardened land of the desert as if they were beating. However, in this gallop, Chu You felt an extremely familiar feeling.
It was a hunger, a hunger that went straight to the soul, and although it was fleeting, he was sure that he had just felt it. This is exactly the "unprovoked hunger" that he suddenly encountered in the wasteland when he first entered the Hungry Ghost Path.
"Boss Wu..."
Chu You gently reined in the bone horse and shouted forward, "Did you feel special just now?"
"Special?"
Wu Xingyuan stopped and looked back, his face showing puzzlement.
"It's a hunger pang. Chu You explained.
"Hungry?"
Wu Xingyuan was still puzzled, but the fat ghost next to him laughed, turned over from the bone horse, and ran to the side of a dry bone not far away.
I saw that he saw the right place, stretched out his hand to the pile of dry bones, and a big black insect was lifted out.
"Hehe, this hungry bone roundworm can't escape my fat man's eyes. He smiled and walked over with a big worm, and leaned towards Chu You's face like a mischief.
"This is?" Chu You asked.
"It's all said it's a 'hungry bone round'!"
The fat ghost explained with a smile, "This is a hallucinogenic bug that usually hides in the bodies of low-level ghouls and feeds on internal organs. When the host is gnawed to death, it creates a strange illusion that makes other ghouls hungry, so that they come and eat the dead corpse of that host, taking the opportunity to move the breeding offspring and themselves to the next host, and so on. ”
"And so on?"
"Of course, quite a few newborn ghouls have folded in its hands. However, this kind of insect is also too domineering, so the number is not very large, and it has always been a cherished "poison", you can keep it!"
As he spoke, he stuffed the big beetle into Chu You's arms.
"This..."
Chu You looked over and felt that although this insect had the word "roundworm" in its name, it was far from a roundworm, and it was completely a beetle image.
