Chapter 73: A Vision of the Woods

Xie Chen, who was in a hurry to run downstairs, didn't hear this movement, and ran out of the house directly.

When I went out of the room, I forgot to press down the movement.

Except for the young couple, even Father and Wood looked this way.

Of course, Xie Chen didn't have time to deal with them, and he turned around and ran towards a wood.

"Xiaochen! Where are you going? ”

Seeing that he was in a hurry, his father immediately got up and asked.

Xie Chen also glanced back at him for the first time.

It's just that the situation is too urgent, and if you stop and explain, the monster found in the woods doesn't know where to go.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but speed up my pace.

Seeing that he didn't respond, the father behind him immediately put down the fish in his hand that he was helping to carry and chased after him.

It's just that he didn't expect his son to run at an outrageous speed.

Obviously, he was still in his field of vision just now, but in the blink of an eye, he was already about to reach the woods.

"Why is this kid running so fast?"

Xie Chen did not stay, but went directly into the woods.

Although this forest is not large, there are some sparse paths in it, and it can be seen that there should be people walking.

If only the monster wanted to get out of this kind of path, Xie Chen still felt that it was unlikely.

Judging by the size of the trail, there are indeed traces of human activity in this forest, but it is not frequent, otherwise the weeds on the trail would not have come and gone.

After burrowing into the woods, Xie Chen began to look around.

Then he turned to check the location of the balcony of the house to determine where the monster he had just seen was in the woods.

It's just that the surrounding trees are sparse and dense, and it's not easy to confirm the direction myself.

As he ran, Xie Chen's nose began to smell a strange smell.

It's like something is rotten.

But when you smell it, it doesn't feel very similar.

It made me feel like there was definitely something in the woods.

"No, I can't find it."

Without hesitation, Xie Chen took out the pocket watch in his pocket, and opened the cover with a flick of his thumb.

Except for Xie Chen himself, the surrounding time began to slowly stand still, and then turned into a videotape that automatically operated.

As the rewind begins, all the scenes are slowly regressing.

It's been so long since this copy started, and it's the first time I've seen a substantial goal, and it's worth wasting two times to use the pocket watch.

Whether you believe in the rules or your own reasoning depends on this time.

Therefore, even if you see the monster face-to-face, it is more difficult to clear Thor's suspicions, but it is better than nothing.

At the same time that the surrounding screen began to slowly regress.

Xie Chen suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart.

I don't know how much time it took me to see the monster from the balcony of Thor's house to the woods.

But I seem to remember that after the settlement from the second copy.

This new backtrack function seems to only be able to go back to the previous minute.

Isn't this a fucking waste of a single use?

Before you have time to be annoyed, the time rewind is already over.

Xie Chen's eyes were opened as a burst of light disappeared.

He was standing at the door of the house.

While Xie Chen was overjoyed, he immediately pressed the button of the pocket watch.

Time stood still.

Xie Chen hurriedly ran upstairs and went to the balcony to reconfirm the specific location of the monster in the woods.

To be able to see is to be able to see.

It's just that compared to the position he saw before, the monster's body actually moved a distance of about ten meters.

Xie Chen couldn't help but gasp.

"So outrageous?"

As time stood still, he stared intently at that face.

Compared to the original, it has become distorted.

If it wasn't easy to confirm whether this was a human at first, now you can make a final decision yourself.

This is definitely not a human being.

Xie Chen didn't waste any more time, and immediately ran downstairs.

This time, because time stood still, my father didn't have a chance to speak.

After a while, Xie Chen came to the woods, and the familiar path was still in front of him.

When I was on the balcony earlier, I had reconfirmed the exact location of the monster and the wooded path.

So this time, Xie Chen didn't have any delay, and immediately ran in the direction he had set in his heart.

Because the route does not follow the existence of the path, there are naturally many weeds and trees in the way.

But although it hindered the speed a little, Xie Chen didn't care too much about it, and moved forward.

As the sound of birds began to sound around him, Xie Chen also knew that the effect of time standing still was over.

But fortunately, I am almost on track.

After pulling out the last bush, he directly met the monster's eyes.

A fishy smell came to my face, and the fishy smell mixed with the stench almost made me cry.

Xie Chen really couldn't imagine that the body of this monster in front of him would stink so outrageously.

This is equivalent to ten times the smell of the Northeast sauce cube, soaked in a thatched latrine that has not been washed for ten years, and just fished out of the manure pit.

And it is mixed with the fishy smell of salted fish.

Not to mention getting close to the monster, just four or five meters away, Xie Chen's stomach turned a little upside down, and his body reacted subconsciously, covering his mouth and nose with both hands.

I'm afraid of inhaling a little more.

The monster looked at itself, its eyes were empty, and its limbs were even more stunned, giving people the feeling of being like a dead thing.

But Xie Chen never thought so in his heart, if it was really a dead thing, it would never move.

But just by running from the balcony to the downstairs for such a short distance, he moved nearly ten meters or so quickly.

It's not something dead can do.

The monster and himself confronted each other like this, and neither of them had the intention of moving first.

It's just that the stench is so bad that I can't stand it.

"Damn, the smell of this woods comes from it."

Xie Chen couldn't help but complain, and out of the corner of his eye, he also caught a glimpse of a stone on the ground next to him.

Xie Chen slowly shifted his body, stretched out his hand, and then picked up the stone on the ground and threw it at the monster.

The stone hit the monster's head and then fell to the ground.

The monster's head had a crack, and bright red blood was bubbling out.

Xie Chen frowned.

I didn't use much effort.

But what surprised me even more was that the monster still bleeds, and the blood is still bright red.

Is it possible that it is human?

It's just that in the next second, I denied this from the bottom of my heart.

The monster roared as hard as it could, its voice so sharp that it was a little similar to a sound wave, and it hurt a little in its eardrums.

Xie Chen shifted from covering his mouth and nose to covering his ears.

The intense fishy smell almost made me faint.

As the monster opened its mouth, the already extremely strong flavor became even more "unstoppable".

Xie Chen was still thinking about how to subdue it, but the monster was already rushing towards him.

Xie Chen subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the speed of the monster was too fast, and he couldn't give himself much time to react.

His body only retreated slightly, and the monster had already come to him.

Facing the head-on impact, Xie Chen subconsciously wanted to reach out to resist.

It's just that the stench is eroding his psychological defense.

In addition, after the monster approached, the appearance of the body was even more terrifying.

Lumps of dirt, as if they had crawled out of a dung pit and been dried by the sun.

I really "can't bear it" to do it.

But the monster was not as he thought, and smashed it down on his head with a flick of his hand.

Xie Chen, who didn't have time to dodge at all, could only stubbornly raise his hand to resist.

The monster's blow was taken by himself with one hand.

Xie Chen gritted his teeth and kicked out.

The monster staggered to the ground, then rolled and crashed into the trees behind it.

Xie Chen was a little surprised.

How did you become so powerful?

"That's not right."

"It seems that the reward for clearing the second dungeon is to improve your physical fitness."

After Xie Chen understood the reason for this, he immediately shook his hand, and then bounced up, and smashed his heel on the monster's head.

A roar of pain rang out all around.

In front of the monster's forehead, a lot of blood gushed out, and it was even stained with the heels of its own shoes.

The touch that came from Xie Chen's heels was also somewhat clear that the monster's forehead bone had been smashed by itself.

Feeling the super strength of this body, Xie Chen couldn't help but breathe heavily.

I never thought that I could be so outrageously strong, and I felt that the multiple of body strengthening was estimated to be like that, and it was impossible to go against the sky.

At most, it's just listening to the cows.

But I didn't expect it to be far beyond my expectations.

But after receiving a kick that would be certain for ordinary people, the monster was still struggling to get up.

Xie Chen immediately flipped over and made up for the whip leg fiercely.

This kick with body inertia also made a crisp clicking sound from the monster's neck.

The original wail of pain also came to an abrupt end, and Xie Chen stood in place, staring at the monster's severed head, and just hung down on his body.

But even though the head was no longer reacting, the monster's body was still struggling violently.

I don't know if it's because of the nerves in my body that haven't died, or if this monster really can't be killed.

Xie Chen immediately followed up with several kicks, kicking the monster's thigh off to prevent him from getting up and running away.

Then he looked around to see if he could find some rattan or something, and then tied up the monster first.

After a quick turn, Xie Chen stopped in front of a bush.

The finger-thick rattan hanging in front of him also just met his expectations.

But when you pick up the rattan and drag it forward, you can't move it.

Xie Chen stopped what he was doing and used his hands to pick up the knotted grass outside.

But what caught his eye was a white skeleton.

The roots of these rattans and grasses have wrapped around this white bone, and they have obtained nutrients from its body to thrive.
