Wu Xie and the fat man walked through the gap between the air roots and entered the banyan tree.

It was a natural arched hollow pipe formed by the entanglement of tree trunks and vines, with a large amount of space inside, which stretched far behind in the dark.

Those sunken holes were full of green and blackened bones, as if poisoned, human bones and various animal bones, very mixed, for a while it was impossible to distinguish between humans and ghosts, all of which were connected by human hemp rope woven with plant fibers, and hung in the air like musical instruments of chimes.

Wu Xie looked carefully and found that most of these bones were tube-shaped, with many small insect-eaten holes on them, and the middle was also hollowed out.

"These are probably very primitive instruments made of bone." Wu Xie speculated.

The fat man smacked his lips, "This Gu King is still quite good at enjoying life, and if he dies, he will have to be buried by the whole orchestra." ”

"Oh yes, the instruments are all here, why don't you see the members of the symphony orchestra, are the two guys quarreling and splitting up."

As he spoke, the fat man reached out and fiddled with the long bones of one of the flute-shaped animals.

In the chaotic buzzing of mosquitoes, a "cooing" sound suddenly appeared.

The fat man's hand froze in place, and the sweat-soaked hairs suddenly exploded, "Damn, what a sound!" ”

Wu Xie held his breath and carefully distinguished, but the sound was very short, and he couldn't find the source of the sound.

"Could it be ......" the fat man's gaze looked at the long bone he had just moved.

"Give it a try." Wu Xie also stretched out his hand, slowly approached the bone, and gently flicked it.

The next moment, the strange "cooing" sound sounded again.

Wu Xie felt very strange, he bent down and tilted his head to look carefully from the bottom of the long bone, and found that the inside of the bone was indeed hollow, but there were many white hairs that were thinner than a hair interspersed in it, dense like a spider's web.

Wu Xie pinched the long bone and looked at it, and found that the source of the white silk inside came from the side of the long bone against the trunk.

The white light of the headlamp passed, and there were many silver filaments flickering there, and a whole tree trunk was faintly glowing.

There was a lot of water vapor on it, and the light was refracted by the condensed droplets on it, and there were many white hairs like mycelium sticking through the cracks in the trunk of the tree, connecting all the nearby bone artifacts.

The fat man had a look of sudden realization, "Oh, I see, it turns out that these mycelium are the souls of the bone tube that make sounds." ”

Perhaps it is because in the process of shaking the long bones, air circulates from the bottom, the inner wall of the bone tube vibrates, and the white silk inside plays the role of a sound spring, which makes a "cooing" sound similar to a bird's call.

Wu Xie lightly put down the long bone in his hand, just a slight swing can make such a sound, if all the bone tools collide and resonate with each other, what kind of consequences will be caused by the time is unimaginable, he doesn't dare to try it easily.

There were also many dark red rune strips hanging from the top of the arched tree tube, which gradually turned black and brown under the oxidation of the air, and Wu Xie was very suspicious that the color on it was made of blood, which was really weirdly tight.

The two of them continued to walk forward, and when they reached the middle part of the tree hole pipe, there were also many bone tools hanging here, but the selected animal bones became large irregular bones, which were engraved with many patterns of the sun, stars, and birds and animals, which seemed to be ornaments.

The only thing suspicious is that these patterns all have a clear orientation, and they all invariably lead deeper into the cave.

After walking more than ten meters, there were two forks in the tree pipe passage.

There were no hinted signs at the two forks, and the fat man poked Wu Xie elbow, "Which one to choose?" Men on the left and women on the right. ”

"Okay." Wu Xie nodded, and then walked straight to the right.

"Hey!" The fat man hurriedly chased after him, "Didn't you say to go to the left?" You don't know when you leave or right. ”

"Just go to the right, have you forgotten that the posture of the guide figurines in the snake cave tower before was all facing the right." Wu Xie Dao.

The fat man thought, "Yes." "No more entanglement.

The further back you go, the pipes formed by the roots of the trees begin to slope upward, turning a Z-shaped curve, and the road ahead becomes a ladder once woven from living vines, most of which have been distorted and deformed over the years.

Wu Xie and the others climbed up quickly, and they could feel as if they were walking on a spiral staircase inside a cylindrical building.

I don't know how long I climbed, but the stairs finally came to an end, and looking out through the gap between the air roots and the vines, it was at least thirty meters above the ground.

In the space above their heads was a small temple also made of gloomy wood, and a thick, green and blackened vine twisted and twisted upwards, crawling all over the bottom plank of the small temple, supporting the temple like a giant umbrella, and a vine covered with black spikes went straight to the bottom of the temple.

The temple in the sky was surrounded by green vines, and some of the branched branches sprouted palm-sized purple-pink flowers with three long petals, shaped like rabbit's ears and a bit like a cobra standing up.

The sunlight is faint, but the flowers are still blooming beautifully, and the air is full of enticing aromas.

The fat man's stomach sang very appropriately, "This taste evokes the fat man's long-lost ventriloquism." ”

Wu Xie covered his nose and looked at the flowers carefully, but he didn't see the mosquitoes dead on the petals, and it seemed that the fragrance was harmless.

Hearing the voice, he glanced back at the fat man, "What did you say in your ventriloquism?" ”

"My ventriloquist tells me it's time to eat...... it! Innocent, dodge! The fat man didn't know what he saw, and suddenly his face changed drastically.

Wu Xie subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, only to see a huge and long black shadow shrouded in it.

At some point, a very large purple-pink three-petaled flower appeared from the top of the temple behind him, and the wide petals opened to the maximum like a giant umbrella.

Like a skinned sticky bud rice, the petals turned over directly and leaned against the flower stem, and the flower core exposed inside turned out to be three blood-red serrations, and the blood basin mouth instantly bit towards Wu Xie.

Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Wu Xie drew his knife and planned to resist this blow, but the next moment he was knocked down by the fat man, and the two rolled to the side.

The fat man flipped up one by one, picked off the sapper shovel tied to the back of his backpack, and slashed at the giant flower that pounced on him.

There was a crackling, and the shovel head seemed to hit some kind of iron object, and the black thorns flew in all directions.

The fat man looked at it fixedly, and was shocked, good fellow, the shovel in his hand was cut off, and the serrated teeth of the flower were unharmed, and not even a little turf was scraped off.

"I can't beat it, I can't beat it!" The fat man shouted loudly, "Innocent and fast to retreat!" ”

"Can't be withdrawn - I have it too!" Wu Xie's teeth were about to be crushed, and the knife in his hand fell for a long time before he cut down a few black thorns on the opposite side.

The fat man looked at it, he was numb, and there was actually a big-mouthed flower, "Where did this damn thing come from?" ”

Two huge flower teeth attacked one after another, and the two of them had no power to fight back, so they could only resist desperately in order not to be bitten and swallowed by the huge teeth.

"This thing is too tough, the knife in our hands can't cut at all!"

Wu Xie's physical strength had been partially consumed before, and he was already tired after a long stalemate, and he was almost bitten on the arm without noticing it for a while, and the big head of the giant flower turned around and slammed it on his side, knocking him out directly and hitting the trunk of the tree.

The fat man rolled on the spot to avoid the giant flower on his side, and when he saw another flower chasing him and biting him, he scolded his mother angrily, "The innocence of the dog's day, stand up quickly and take your one away, I can't bear the fat man!" ”

Wu Xie spit out the blood foam in his mouth, gritted his teeth and got up, pulled out the pistol behind his waist, and took advantage of the gap between the giant flower's open mouth to aim at the space inside the sawtooth and fired four shots in a row.

This attack was effective, but it was not particularly obvious, and the giant flower only paused for a few seconds, and immediately pounced more ferociously.

In the gap of a few seconds between these seconds, Wu Xie stared at them, and suddenly had a way to deal with them, he yelled, "Fatty, drag one first, I have a way!" ”

The fat man didn't think about it, he immediately pounced, and used his stalking skills to entangle one of them, and the other came towards Wu Xie with a clear goal.

Wu Xie grabbed the vine hanging from above from the trunk of the tree with one hand, and jumped high on his side, the calyx of the giant flower piercing straight into the place where he had stood.

Wu Xie directly let go and jumped down from mid-air, grabbed the giant flower and flipped it to a petal on the top, and blood suddenly oozed from the palm of his hand.

It turned out that the petals that looked beautiful and refined in color also had burrs on them, and the moment Wu Xie held them, the burrs pierced into his flesh, and the barb on it was directly buckled firmly into the flesh like a claw hook, and the palm was blurred with flesh and blood.

The smell of dripping blood stimulated the giant flower, and Wu Xiequan, who was hiding behind the petals, grabbed it with one hand and hung it in the air.

The giant flower kept swinging its head to find its prey, and Wu Xie swayed around like a puppet with its rotation amplitude, and it had almost slid to the edge of the petals, and the fat man was terrified to see it.

With this stunned effort, another giant flower seized the gap and smothered towards the fat man's head.

The fat man felt the sound of the wind blowing, and reflexively avoided it, but he was still bitten on the shoulder, and was directly bitten by the giant flower, thrown up and thrown into the air, and fell down after hitting the temple on the top.

The fat man was smashed, his head was dizzy, and he waved his hands wildly to grasp the messy vines, but unfortunately the fragile vines could not bear his weight, and they were in danger, and the huge flower's open bloody mouth was just below.

Seeing that the fat man was about to fall, at this critical juncture, Wu Xie on the other side aimed at the calyx, the first shot missed the flower head, and the second shot took advantage of the moment when the flower head was thrown back due to inertia, and the bullet directly entered the serration.

Unexpectedly, the inside of the flower stem was much weaker than the plant fiber on the outer skin, and this shot went diagonally into it, directly piercing a gap in the flower stem, and red mucus gushed out in an instant.

The giant flower hunts by smell and instinct, and in just this moment, the blood on Wu Xie's hands is flowing more, and his blood is more attractive than that of the fat man.

The giant flower that Wu Xie was holding was about to enter a state of madness, swaying wildly, it had already found Wu Xie on its body, but its flower head would not bend, so it could only use brute force to throw the prey into its attack range.

The other injured flower was also attracted by Wu Xie's blood, and no longer bothered to deal with the fat man who was still hanging on the top, with a huge mouth, and slanted towards Wu Xie.

Now is the time!

Wu Xie directly let go of his hand and let himself fall, and the giant flower that rushed over didn't have time to brake due to inertia, and bit on another giant flower.

I only heard a crisp click, and the stem of another giant flower was directly bitten through half, and the flower head drooped down, and it struggled to fight back with its survival instinct.

The plant did not feel pain, but it had a dynamic response to stress, and the two giant flowers were entangled, and the temple on the top was all shattered by their fighting, and the broken wood and tiles fell to the ground.

Wu Xie tugged at his long sleeves to wrap his still bleeding palm, and beckoned to the fat man who was still hanging on top after waking up from his dizziness.

The fat man immediately cut off the vines that tied his ankles, plopped down and smashed on the giant flower, and with a cry of pain stuck in his throat, he rolled down with his back as much as he could, because there were many black thorns on his back and buttocks, like a fat hedgehog.

Wu Xie hurriedly ran over to help him up, but he didn't care much, and the two immediately held the cat's waist and carefully got under the giant flower that was entangled, and ran desperately along the stairs.

When the figures of the two disappeared around the corner, a light and slender black shadow fell from the sky, the knife fell, the figure flew away, and the two giant flowers in the battle circle were cut off at the same time in just a few moves.

Heavy flower heads smashed on the ground, making a loud noise like the collapse of a house.

The stalk of the femme fatale was confused for a moment before it staggered out of the gap at the top.

The woman in black has a beautiful face, charming but not demonic, with a red touch and red lips, and she looks as if she is only twenty-eight years old.

She put away the knife, half-squatted down, stretched out her hand and dipped her fingertips with a little of the blood that Wu Xie had just dripped down, and said softly: "It's a little stronger than I thought, that kid's eye for people is not bad." ”

In the gap above, there was a slightly smaller snake and scorpion flower probing her brain, and the woman in black didn't pay attention to it, turned around and left in the direction where Wu Xie and the others fled.

On the other side, Wu Xie and the fat man ran out of breath, and ran to the left side of the fork in the road in a panic.

ran far away, and saw that there was no movement from behind, so he dared to stop and take a breath.

The fat man still had a lot of black thorns on his cheeks, pouted his waist and asked Wu Xie to clean him up, and complained: "Naive, if you want me to say that you really changed your name to Wu Xie Men'er, I knew that you were so back, so I listened to the fat man's choice of the left, and if there is a fork in the road next time, I will definitely not listen to you anymore." ”

Wu Xie stabbed and scolded him, "Fuck off, if we don't encounter something outrageous when we go to the tomb, then it's not normal." ”

Good night maca baka
