Chapter 57: The Big Tree
After two days of trekking, they more or less encountered some mountain beasts, but most of them were killed by the old ghosts, and some of them were slightly injured and did not deliberately chase after them, and finally came to a flat area between the two mountains at noon two days later, Mo Li took out the map and looked up at the terrain.
"Old ghost, do you still have an impression of the cave?"
The old ghost looked back and forth, and finally pointed to a mountain peak on the left and pondered for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "I was in a hurry to escape, so I didn't pay much attention, but it was really right that I went up this mountain in the end, you see" The old ghost pointed to a big tree at the bottom of the mountain peak and continued: "This big tree is very special, and there are unique words on it that only our gang can understand."
Mo Li had just seen the tree that the old ghost was referring to, but he didn't pay much attention to it just now, and when the old ghost said this, Mo Li looked at the big tree again.
This big tree looks like it's not much different from other trees, but if you look closely, it's really a little different from other trees, this big tree is a little like a willow tree, not to mention a hundred years, the branches are hooked, hanging upside down from the top of the tree, wrapping the whole tree including the trunk, under the blowing of the breeze, the branches are scattered, Mo Li is shocked after looking at it.
Where is this tree, the trunk is pitted, the irregular bark shows large and small hollows, and the hollows are still flowing out of the blood-red sap from time to time, and even the entire trunk has become blood-red, Mo Li has never seen such a strange and demonic tree.
The old ghost was also shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly ran under the tree, Mo Li was stunned for a moment and then ran with the old ghost, "What's wrong?" looked at the old ghost squatting under the big tree Mo Li asked.
"That's the mark I left at the time, but the tree didn't change so weirdly at the beginning, and even the first two times, the tree hadn't become like this," the old ghost said, pointing to a hole that was still flowing out of what looked like blood.
Mo Li glanced at a crooked symbol that the old ghost said, which was very similar to the ghost character, and then turned around under the big tree, Mo Li found that the tree was not too special except for the blood-red liquid and the hollow, which was more scary, so he stretched out his hand and touched the blood-red liquid.
The liquid is cool in the hand, Mo Li lowered his head and smelled it, this smell choked Mo Li enough, this smell is particularly fishy, in addition to fishy, there is also a smell like food deterioration, especially choking, Mo Li hurriedly grabbed the soil on the ground and rubbed it in his hands, and took out the water to wash it again, the strange smell is much less, but it is still a little unpleasant, after a few scrubbing, Mo Li gave up, the smell is like a cowhide plaster for a long time.
After a while, Mo Li's expression froze, and then he said in surprise: "Don't touch this liquid!" Mo Li thought that this liquid should not be too much of a problem except for the bad smell, but it backfired, as soon as Mo Li finished thinking about it, there was a heart-rending burning sensation in his hand, and the skin in the palm of his hand began to become more and more red, and some skin began to fester, Mo Li was not shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly took out the dendrobium that he had picked before and stuffed it into his mouth, and sat on the ground with his hands together and began to run, Zhou Tian ran and gathered all the spiritual energy into his hands and began to resist the burning feeling.
The old ghost saw that Mo Li's hand that had touched the liquid began to fester, so he hurriedly stood up and took two steps back, "Brother Mo, this."
