Chapter 188: Danger Comes
In the mountains at night, the temperature is even colder, and every now and then there is a howl or two of unknown beasts and the wailing of owls.
In the distant sky, the moonlight was bright, the sky covered by clouds looked down, and in the middle of the forest, a black centipede as huge as a majestic mountain range was crawling slowly, and everywhere it went, the trees were staggered and broken, like the traces left by a giant python after crawling over the grass...... Dirt and gravel burst out in all directions along its path, and the huge belly ** staggered and smashed to the ground, and the cracks in the earth spread in a staggered manner, crumbling in all directions like cracks in the ice......
The forest is like everything sleeps in the fear of death, and the figure of centipedes and their eerie cries can make people hallucinate in the underworld.
The centipede slowly climbed the hut in the trees, and because of its sheer size, the huts in the trees swayed and made a huge rustling sound. I don't know if the centipede changed its mind and didn't plan to attack the people on the tree, so it stopped and didn't climb up.
Yunluo's sleepy eyes opened, and before he knew what was happening, he saw Meng'er huddled in the corner of the bed, with her eyes closed, her body trembling very much, and a few drops of sweat dripping from her forehead.
Yunluo's drowsiness was dispersed, because this kind of sound also appeared a few days ago, Meng'er said that she was used to it, and she didn't have this kind of fear at all, and now...
Yunluo slowly moved to Meng'er's side and asked her in a low voice what was wrong.
Meng'er opened her red eyes, trembling and curled up her fingers reluctantly pointed out, her lips trembling and she wanted to say something, but she couldn't make a sound.
The reason why this land is isolated from the outside world is that it is blocked by the true qi of forest rattans and swamps. Outsiders hardly dare to set foot in it. Occasionally, someone who dares to break in will be blocked again by the swamp at the end. Out of the instinct of survival, people will never want to enter, and they will completely lose the opportunity to set foot in this pure land.
Yunluo is afraid that he has been walking on the road for a long time, so he takes the deserted road to avoid those troubles, and it is often the safest place that seems to be the most dangerous.
And the centipede smelled the breath, it was still one person when it came last time, and now it is obviously two people, and the people who can enter here must not be ordinary people, in addition, the unpleasantness of the last time, so it does not dare to move, and it is waiting for the best time to attack.
The last time was Meng'er was lucky to escape, {blue grass}: At that time, she planted a kind of herb, because she was afraid of small insects, so when she slept at night, she soaked the blue grass in water for about three hours, and then rubbed it all over her body, seeing the sudden attack of the centipede, Meng'er was also like the panic at this time, but not long after, it left, and then Meng'er understood that the centipede did not dare to approach her because of the smell that made it hate, so she let herself go.
And tonight, because of the arrival of the clouds, Meng'er excitedly relaxed her vigilance and did not use the blue grass, she thought with a pale face, she was about to be swallowed into her belly, and she had not had time to see her parents.
Seeing Meng'er's trembling appearance, he couldn't tell the situation clearly, so he could only rely on himself.
Yunluo took advantage of the faint moonlight, stretched out his hand to twist the two clothes into twists, bowed his back, lowered his head, squinted, and made a sneak attack with his hands.
At this moment, she stopped, no longer looking around, staring at a place on the right, and gasped, it was a centipede about seven meters long, with long antennae and a small round head that was red, with a yellow belly and slender feet on both sides. Its back is black, and its body hovers over the half-middle of the tree.
According to modern knowledge of cloud fall, centipedes have extremely poor eyesight, and can only rely on two long tentacles on their heads to orient themselves and explore the location of their prey. So, the head becomes the centipede's sensory and feeding organ.
Yun Luo made up his mind, started from the centipede's head, and made a very standard gesture with his hand, asking Meng'er to prepare what he wanted.
