Chapter Ninety-Four: The Skull Walks Nocturnally
Li Mo and his party were all sitting on the futon in the hall, which was naturally what Li Mo took out of the storage bag, and everyone was concentrating on the movement outside the house, only Luo Luo was nibbling on a small snack.
"It's coming. The little ears that suddenly fell moved and said.
Everyone else also felt the abnormality outside, a dark wind blew, and there was a terrifying sound like crying and laughing. "Woo~~Woo~~Hehe~~Woo~~"
This was followed by the sound of "clicking" footsteps, the pace was neat and uniform, and several people were sure that this must be a large group of people, and it would definitely not be human, because this footstep could only be made by a person weighing at least a thousand pounds.
Each person was given an invisibility talisman, and Li Mo took the lead in walking out of the wooden house through the wall with Luoluo in his arms.
When they came out, several people were shocked.
A team of naked**, one-foot tall huge skulls drilled out of the underground of the entire small world. The golems were blackened as if they had been made of heavy iron, their bodies glowing with cold light, and a small cluster of burning flames within their empty skulls. And the direction they went after they got out was the only big lake in the small world.
Li Mo flew towards the Great Lake, no need to ask, several other people must have the same idea, the Great Lake is abnormal.
The great lake, which is as calm as jasper during the day, is particularly strange in the moonlight, and the lake separates from each other, forming a staircase in the middle, leading to the mysterious and unknown depths of the lake.
Li Mo was about to go down the stairs to find out, when a group of leading skeletons next to him raised the bone sword in his hand and stabbed him, and at the same time, Su Yaoyao's exclamation and the sound of the Taoist priest scolding came from not far away.
It turned out that their concealment sigils and stealth techniques were simply ineffective against these giant skeletons.
The three of them were released from hiding and gathered together, and more skeletons walked towards the water stairs in the lake, and only a small part of them came to deal with Li Mo, but this also made them tired to deal with.
If you are stabbed by the bone sword of the skeleton man, you will bleed nonstop, as if it has some kind of toxin, and the wound will not be healed if you take the pill. The bones on the skulls are hard and extremely difficult to cut. Even if you cut him to pieces, the wooden sword in the skeleton's hand will be able to attack you again.
Li Mo inadvertently discovered the weakness of the skeleton man and shouted to the two people next to him, "Attack the flame in their heads." ”
After that, these skeletons are not difficult to deal with, as long as they extinguish the fire in their heads, they can be killed with one blow, but there are too many of them, and after killing one, they will make up for another one, and they will never be killed.
The three of them were numb in their hands and feet, and they were not injured again after mastering the weakness of the skeleton man, but this mechanical killing action continued in unison until the first rays of sunlight appeared in the morning, the lake was calm again, and the puppeteer burrowed back into the earth, and even the skeleton that had been killed disappeared to the ground in an instant. Only the old Taoist priest still clutched the leg bone that had been skulling in his hand.
If it weren't for the fact that the three of them still had wounds on their bodies and their wounds were still dripping blood, they would have thought that everything that happened in the dark night was an illusion.
Several people collapsed in place to rest, and the light of the morning sun shone on several people, warm. Luoluo had already jumped to the side, pointed to Li Mo's body and said, "Your injuries are all healed." ”
Looking at it again, the injuries on the old Taoist priest and Su Yaoyao's bodies were all healed, and there was not even a trace of scar left, as if last night's battle was just an illusion.
Sunlight is actually a good medicine for skull poison.
Li Mo stared at the calm lake, as clear and turquoise as he first saw yesterday, and the fish in the lake swam happily. But last night the skeletons had clearly walked to the bottom of the lake, and only the skeletons that had walked into the lake had not returned to the earth.
In other words, the bottom of the lake is covered with black skulls, and I don't know how long they have been buried in the soil, and yesterday they ate the fish in the lake, and they really wanted to vomit. Several people observed around the lake for a long time, but did not find a trace of abnormality.
When they returned to the village, the village chief was knocking on the door of their house with a few villagers, and when he saw a few people coming from outside, his expression was like seeing a ghost.
"Village Chief, we are people, not ghosts, you don't have to be afraid. Su Yaoyao opened her mouth and said, her skin was fair, her face was ruddy, and she was still warm when she breathed.
Only then did the village chief return to normal, and said flatteringly: "The villagers have just gone to pick a few bunches of fruits, and I want to take them for the immortals to taste." ”
Li Mogang wanted to reply that they didn't need to eat, but Luoluo had already grabbed the red fruit in the hand of a villager. Li Mo had to change the words to thank the village chief.
Sending the village chief away, Luoluo God said mysteriously: "What kind of fruit do you guess this is?"
The small red fruits, as big as grapes, are still bunches, and they are still a little cold in the hand, but the aroma is tangy and very attractive.
Su Yaoyao likes to eat all kinds of spiritual fruits the most, and this time can suffocate her, even if this small fruit does not contain spiritual energy, she still can't wait to pick up one and send it to her mouth.
Luoluo hurriedly stopped it and shouted, "You can't eat it!"
Li Mo picked up a small fruit, looked at the appearance carefully for a while, sniffed it again, and said: "It contains a faint ability, but it is not an aura or a demonic energy, it is not poisonous, what is this?"
Alchemists also have high requirements for the ability to distinguish spiritual plants, if they encounter a refined elixir that happens to lack one or two flavors of medicinal materials, they need to look for the same medicinal properties, but also to be able to avoid encountering treasures without knowing them. Of course, this is also the instinct that alchemists have cultivated by dealing with spiritual materials for a long time.
But Li Mo didn't recognize the effect of this little fruit.
Luoluo looked at the bunch of red fruits in his claws and said, "I don't know the name of this thing, but the aura on it seems to be somewhat similar to the skull people that appeared at night, maybe it can be used against them." ”
Speaking of this, Li Mo also had an inspiration, and asked Lao Dao to take out the leg bone he put away, and the red fruit was poked out of a small hole with a light poke, and the juice that flowed out dripped on the leg bone, and immediately emitted a burst of black smoke.
When the black smoke cleared, the leg bones had shrunk to the size of a normal person, and the black faded, leaving only gray and white. It turned out that those skulls were simply the bones of normal people.
Su Yaoyao thought of a possibility that scared herself: "The underground of this small world can't be a huge cemetery, right?"
"No, even a cemetery wouldn't have so many corpses, it's a huge burial pit. Li Mo said.
The old Taoist priest's dream of living with a beautiful woman in this small world of birds and flowers was shattered in an instant, even if he was a camel spirit, he would not like to be on the funeral pit. His old wrinkled skin had goosebumps on it, and it was a disgusting place to be.
The three of them now unanimously want to leave this ghost place as soon as possible, and the key to leaving is only the bottom of the lake.
With the mentality of just in case, the three of them divided the division of labor to search for the small world, there was no exit, no anomaly, and finally gathered by the big lake.
Li Mo looked around for a while, and said to Lao Dao, "You go down and have a look." ”
Lao Dao shook his head again and again, and stood a little farther away from Li Mo.
Luoluo said: "Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to go down for a swim, and now it is just right to satisfy you." ”
Lao Dao thought he was smart and smiled and said: "At this time and that time, there is something strange at the bottom of this lake, and Lao Dao is not in your hands." ”
Li Mo turned around, narrowed the distance between him and Lao Dao, and kicked him down with a flying kick.
