readx;
At dusk, the quicksand spit began to rain lightly, a rare light rain in the quicksand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a jolt in the southern cemetery, it had regained its calm, and it had been quiet for two hours without any disturbance, except for the rain that gradually wet the ground.
Knowing that the night was about to cover the sky, a figure flashed into the cemetery, staring at the stump and the exposed hole, and the two fists were directly clenched, full of anger.
"Damn, did you find this place?"
With a cold snort, the figure strode towards the cave, the pace was extremely fast, as if the darkness in the corridor had no effect on him at all, and he reached the stone chamber at the end in just a few minutes.
As soon as he stepped in, a thick smell of blood came to his nose, and the eyes of the figure scanned keenly in the darkness, and what he saw was a stump and a broken corpse, mixed with blood, and the whole thing was a mess, which was the appearance of purgatory.
The figure gritted his gums, the anger in his eyes already at its peak, but it wasn't until he reached the center of the stone chamber that the anger burned to its peak.
On the stone pillar where the chain was broken, the figure that should have been locked had disappeared, and there was not even a corpse left, but there was a dark red font on the stone pillar, which was a meter square, and the little traces dripping on the other side were actually written with blood as ink.
Punishment!
"Arrogance!"
A golden vitality instantly poured out, shattering the stone pillar and the blood-colored torture words on it.
"Ding Yao, in the name of my clan, you will definitely die!"
......
"Captain, you really can't go in!"
The place in charge of detention in the settlement is the small grotto group in the west, although few people are usually imprisoned in, but the entrance is still guarded by four members of the settlement, and the leader is talking to one of the captains of the settlement hunting team, Ruan Xue, with a little embarrassment.
In the light rain, Ruan Xue frowned, his eyes staring at the guard like ice: "When will I not be able to go in?"
"That's Lord Little's rule. Qiqiao let go of the demon Ding Yao, who was deeply guilty, in order to make him clearly realize his mistakes, no one is allowed to visit the prison until he reflects on it!"
"Hmph, you mean, if I go in, I'll disturb his introspection?"
The guards were very embarrassed, Ruan Xue was the captain of the hunting team after all, and his power in the settlement was extremely great, and the instructions given by Kelit were extremely clear, which led them to stop Ruan Xue's request to visit the prison.
"Captain, don't embarrass us, Master Litt said, in two days you can put the tangram out, captain you just wait......"
"Lit, he really thinks he's the leader of the settlement, it's just that Vence and I have no interest in that position, and now we're starting to put up a fight. Ridiculous!"
"This ......"
The four guards looked at each other, Ruan Xue didn't dare to take it at this time, the position of the leader of Litt was recognized by everyone, but the strength of Ruan Xue and Wangsi was also obvious, although they had the intention to defend Lit, they didn't dare to speak up directly.
Just when they didn't know what to do, another person came not far away.
"Captain Vence!"
Ruan Xue glanced coldly at Wangsi who was walking behind him, didn't pay much attention, and still turned his head and continued to put pressure on the guards.
"Ruan Xue, don't embarrass them. Wang Si opened his mouth and laughed at a few guards, then stood in front of Ruan Xue, and said slowly: "Qiqiao was personally arrested by you, and his crime was also set by you yourself." I know you're worried about him, but it's only two days, and when he realizes his mistake, won't everyone be happy?"
"You really think of that guy as the leader?"
Vence smiled: "You yourself said that we are not interested in this position, but there are hundreds of people in the settlement, and a leader must be in charge of management, since Little is in this position, we should also show more support." ”
“......”
"Just two days, if you don't release people by then, I'll accompany you to find Lit, how about it?"
With a cold look glaring at the four guards again, Ruan Xue turned his head and left the entrance, causing the guards to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Captain Vence!"
"No need, Captain Ruan's personality is like this, you don't have to care. ”
"Uh-huh, yes. ”
Wangs looked at the back of Ruan Xue's departure, shook his head, and left this place as well.
On the other side, Ruan Xue walked farther and farther away from the place of detention, and when he limped at the foot of a certain stone peak, he suddenly frowned and stopped, his movements were extremely abrupt.
He suddenly looked in a certain direction, saw nothing, but felt an abnormal feeling in his heart.
Looking left and right, the rare light rain at this time made most people go back to their grottoes, but not many stayed outside, and no one noticed Ruan Xue's side.
So, Ruan Xue's expression moved, and he disappeared in a certain direction.
Gradually, the light rain began to get heavier and heavier.
......
"Wrong? Shouldn't it?"
In the Lotus Cave, Hua Lan frowned, pacing around the stone bed where the old iron corpse was placed.
Lao Tie's body had already been disposed of, so it hadn't decomposed yet, but considering the existence of Xiaoshun in the other stone room, she still wrapped the spliced corpse with a hay mat.
Outside the cave, it was already dark, and a rain was getting heavier and heavier, and I hadn't seen it in months.
"Brain dead, life is maintained by brute parasitism, there should be no reason, but why does he have it...... How did he survive such a serious injury, and he was so dead...... Dead air?"
The sound of raindrops hitting the stone walls and falling on the hard ground obscured the other sounds.
"How much is life and death...... By the way, some are overtly alive, while others are extremely dead, and if both are parasitic, the difference is ...... Parasitic time?"
Hua Lan's eyes froze, and she turned her head to stare at the corpse parts, which were the missing parts of her legs to be exact.
"Traces of nerve reactivation, which are the cause of post-death parasitism...... But neurons in brain tissue are so complex that they are not as difficult to reactivate after death as the limbs of the body...... But if it's a living parasitic ......"
Thundered!
The unprecedented lightning and thunder reflected the entire quicksand spit with a gloomy and miserable appearance, and the strange stones and strange trees seemed to be projected on the ground, like monsters with teeth and claws.
"I see...... I'll have to tell someone else tomorrow!"
In self-talk, Hua Lan walked to the small stone room, saw that Xiao Shun on the stone bed had slept very peacefully, nodded comfortably, then retreated, returned to his bedroom, pondered for a long time and then closed his clothes and lay down, and soon began to breathe slowly.
The sound of rain outside the grotto washed the sand, mixing it into muddy water, and slowly flowing low, revealing the stones at the bottom of the Lotus Grotto, which was unprecedentedly clean.
Smack!
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps appeared in the cover of the rain, and on the smooth stone ground in front of the cave, the mud and sand footprints appeared step by step, and then quickly disappeared, extending to the lotus cave, and the footsteps became inaudible, and the footprints that appeared were washed by the rain, making the ground extremely dirty.
The figure that stepped out of the footprints was very burly, shrouded in a beast skin cloak, standing at the entrance of the cave and looking at the three stone chambers in the Lotus Cave, past the small stone chamber and the bedroom, and landed in the large stone chamber where the corpse of Lao Tie was placed, and then walked in without hesitation.
The figure stood still on the edge of the stone bed, and with a flick of his arm, the straw mat covering the corpse flew lightly to the side.
The missing part of the corpse's leg was very eye-catching, and the figure stared firmly at the part, and the rough palm gently swept there, letting out an incomprehensible sigh.
A deep sadness radiated out.
In an instant, the vitality fluctuations appeared in the palm of the figure, instantly covering Lao Tie's corpse.
Burst!
The corpse on the stone bed turned into a pile of dust in the blink of an eye, and the corpse could no longer be seen as it was!
After doing this, the figure turned around and left the large stone room, and instead walked to Hua Lan's bedroom, a pair of huge eyes like copper bells emitting a terrifying light.
This kind of scene is exactly the same as when Lao Tie cheated the corpse!
However, unlike Lao Tie, the cultivation of this figure is no longer an ordinary person who has not even entered the military level, and the faint fluctuation of vitality is far beyond the level of the early stage of the military level.
Glancing at the bulging mass of animal skin bedding on the bed, the figure raised his right hand.
"Humph!"
A powerful vitality suddenly erupted, and it slammed directly into the stone bed with its fist, and in the blink of an eye, it bombarded the stone bed and the animal skin bedding on it into pieces.
But under the broken animal skin bedding, there was no scene of flesh and blood splashing, and the bulging part turned out to be a ball of animal skin!
But the figure was not surprised at all, turned his head to look at the corner of the bedroom, and said with a smile in his voice: "Although it is only a woman, it is really not to be underestimated." ”
In the corner, Hua Lan, who was not on the stone bed, walked out, looked at the figure and frowned, and said, "I didn't expect it to be you...... Vence!"
The figure took off the cloak, revealing a seemingly kind face, none other than Vence.
"Is it my words that will surprise you?"
Hua Lan's eyes swept over Vence's neck, and then he shook his head: "I was too careless, I should have noticed that the scar on your neck has disappeared, this should be the change after you were parasitized." ”
"Scar...... Wangs touched his neck thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed: "I didn't realize it myself, it seems that I will pay attention to it in the future." ”
"Do you think you'll be able to hide in the settlement after today?"
"Why hide? Why hide? After tonight, the entire settlement will basically be under control, and when Ding Yao is eliminated...... No, it doesn't matter if Ding Yao will appear again next, everyone will become members of the host clan!"
"Host?" Hua Lan's eyes flashed.
Wangs, who said that he was leaking, didn't care, just laughed, and then admitted loudly: "That's right, it's the Ji clan, you can call me - Ji Xin!"
"It's just a brute...... Do you have a name too?"
Wangs laughed: "Are you trying to provoke me? Actually, I didn't have a name, but because the object of parasitism is you humans, so in order to commemorate the owner of this body before his death, don't you think it's better for me to have a name?" Xin, but it was intercepted directly from Wangs!"
This explanation made Hua Lan immediately show a disgusted expression, and suddenly changed his tone: "Little, you have also been parasitized, right?"
"The desire to learn before death is really strong. Vence shrugged: "Actually, you already have the answer, his changes can't be hidden from your eyes at all." ”
The answer was unsurprising, but it brought a wave of sadness.
"Are you here today to kill me?"
Vence looked at Hua Lan, suddenly sighed, shook his head and said, "Originally, your order was not so high, but you are too smart, as the only doctor in the quicksand spit, your remarks still have a certain guiding effect in the settlement. So for the sake of risk control, you can only be brought forward. But don't worry, I won't kill you......"
As he spoke, Vence's neck suddenly bulged, growing bigger and bigger, and finally it turned into a mouth the size of a fist, revealing its fine fangs towards Hualan.
"Tonight will be your new life, our new member!"
