Chapter 7: Bones

Xiao Ye and Wang Hu came to the entrance of the cave, and the scene in their eyes stunned the two of them, it turned out that there was a different world here.

This is not a cave as Xiao Ye thought, it is a place surrounded by towering stone walls, about ten zhang square, a bright moon in the sky above hangs high and faces here, the moonlight shining inside is much brighter than the outside, you can see the grass on the ground, four ancient and winding trees more than one person tall grow in the middle, each tree bears two fist-sized, red fruits.

The two of them observed and made sure that there were no Bright Moon Silver Wolves staying in it, it seemed that there were only five of them in total, and the two of them walked into it, and a sense of comfort poured out of their bodies.

"Wow, I didn't expect these Bright Moon Silver Wolves to be really good at finding a place," Wang Hu sighed.

"Yes, I didn't expect that there was a cave in here, and the climate here made people feel like it was spring. Xiao Ye opened his arms and took a deep breath.

"Xiaoye, did you notice, the moonlight here seems to be much brighter than outside. Wang Hu looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said.

"Well, I feel it too, and I don't know what's going on. Xiao Ye was also curious about this.

Xiao Ye suddenly smelled a faint fragrance wafting in the air, and turned his head to look at the four one-person-tall ancient trees, under the illumination of the moonlight, the four ancient trees were like four giant pythons stretched out, and the two red fruits were like a pair of blood-colored eyes of a giant python, giving people a sense of hideousness.

Xiao Ye walked towards the ancient tree, Wang Hu also followed when he saw this, the closer he got to the ancient tree, the stronger the fragrance, and sure enough, the fragrance came from this tree.

"It smells so good. Wang Hu, who was standing in front of the ancient tree, said, "Could it be that this fragrance is emitted by the fruit of this tree?" As he spoke, Wang Hu stretched out his hand and plucked a red fruit from the tree.

Wang Hu sniffed the fruit in his hand and found that there was no smell at all, and it seemed that the fragrance was emanating from this tree.

"It's really strange, what kind of tree is this, it can actually emit a fragrant smell," Xiao Ye took the fruit from Wang Hu's hand and sniffed it, he had never heard anyone talk about this kind of tree.

"Xiao Ye, do you say this fruit can be eaten, is it poisonous or not, I'm a little hungry. Wang Hu asked, pointing to the red fruit on the tree.

Xiao Ye looked down at the ground, "It should be edible, these four trees are obviously many years old, and there are no seeds left by the previous fruits on the ground, which means that the previous fruits were eaten by these five Bright Moon Silver Wolves, which also proves that this fruit is not poisonous, and the fruit trees that can grow in the infested places of this kind of fierce beast may have something special about the fruits." ”

Hearing Xiao Ye say this, Wang Hu directly ate the fruit in his hand into his mouth without hesitation.

"Hey, you're really eating, spit it out. Xiao Ye was taken aback by Wang Hu's movements.

"How...... What...... Finish...... You...... It's not that ...... Can you eat it. Wang Hu chewed the fruit in his mouth and said vaguely.

"I mean we can eat it, but we don't necessarily have to eat it too, just like sheep can eat grass, can you eat grass too?" Xiao Ye looked at Wang Hu with a nervous expression, "Why are you still eating." ”

"It's already in your stomach, and now it's too late for you to say anything. Wang Hu licked his lips.

"So how do you feel now?" Xiao Yexin raised his mind, looked at Wang Hu and asked.

"Well, this fruit is a little sweet. Wang Hu tasted back.

"Huh, I didn't ask you about the taste, I mean you eat it in your stomach now, how does your body feel?" Xiao Ye felt that he was directly speechless about Wang Hu's gluttony.

"I don't feel it, it's like eating an apple, Xiao Ye, I think you're too nervous. Wang Hu said, picked another one down and gnawed it.

When Xiao Ye saw Wang Hu say this, his heart finally relaxed, and he also picked a fruit from the tree and ate it, and sure enough, it was really like what Wang Hu said, the taste was really like an apple.

After a short while, the two of them ate all the fruits on the tree, "I said Big Tiger, there is nothing in it, let's go, in case those five Bright Moon Silver Wolves suddenly come back, we will be in danger." Xiao Ye stood in front of the tree and said.

"Okay, let's go, hey, wait, I've got a hot stomach. Wang Hu just took a step, and suddenly covered his stomach and said.

"Oh no, could it be that there is something really wrong with this fruit. Xiao Ye suddenly became nervous, but as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ye also felt a hot breath rise in his stomach.

"Oops, it's so hot!" Xiao Ye felt the heat in his stomach getting hotter and hotter, and suddenly this heat poured from his stomach into his whole body.

His whole body seemed to be soaked in the hot water that had just been boiled, and Xiao Ye and Wang Hu's bodies turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The two of them rolled on the ground in pain, Xiao Ye felt that the temperature in his body was getting higher and higher, and his flesh and muscles were about to be ignited.

Xiao Ye and Wang Hu's bodies slowly became swollen, like a balloon inflated inside, bursts of crackling sounds came from all over their bodies, cracks appeared in their skins, and blood foam sprayed out of them.

Xiao Ye felt an indescribable pain all over his body, and he wanted to cry out in pain, but he couldn't make any sound.

If Xiao Ye could look inside his body now, he would see that a lot of red qi in his body was scurrying around, and the flesh and muscles in his body greedily absorbed these red gases, and the flesh and blood kept turning into fragments and regrowing new flesh and blood, and the muscles and bones were constantly broken and broken, and then new muscles and bones were growing again, and the newly grown muscles and bones were thicker and stronger each time.

It seems that the fruits that Xiao Ye and Wang Hu ate gave them a chance to forge their muscles and bones and reunite their flesh and blood, but if they continued like this, it would be a matter of time before Wang Hu and Xiao Ye's bodies exploded.

Under this kind of severe pain, Xiao Ye and Wang Hu had no chance to faint, they were tortured by this pain and fainted as soon as they passed, but they were woken up by pain in the next second.

Finally, Xiao Ye and Wang Hu's bodies were about to reach the zero boundary point of the explosion, and suddenly the heat in their bodies disappeared without a trace, and another cold air on the contrary emerged.

Xiao Ye and Wang Hu's bodies curled up coldly, their teeth kept chattering, their faces turned snow-white, a layer of snow frost appeared on their bodies, and their swollen bodies slowly turned back to normal proportions, and the cracked skin healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

There were more and more snow and frost on the two of them, and slowly a thick layer of ice formed on the two of them, and the two of them were frozen in the ice and couldn't move, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive.

Xiao Ye and Wang Hu were lying motionless on the ground with their eyes closed, only to see the qi and blood on their faces gradually emerge, and their chests fell together regularly, which proved that the two were not dead, but just fainted.

Suddenly, the moonlight illuminated by the bright moon in the sky condensed together to form a silver-white pillar of light, shining on the four ancient trees, and at the same time wrapping Xiao Ye and Wang Hu inside, and the four ancient trees emitted a faint golden light that echoed the silver moonlight pillar.

A black and white pattern of yin and yang fish appeared on the ground, two yin and yang fish gradually swam in the pattern, the light rose and shrouded Xiao Ye and Wang Hu, and then Xiao Ye and Wang Hu disappeared, the condensed moonlight gradually dissipated, the light of the four ancient trees was restrained, and the yin and yang fish pattern also disappeared.

I don't know how long later, when Xiao Ye woke up, he found that the sky was already bright, the sun was hanging high above the sky, and he and Wang Hu were in a valley, surrounded by boulders and dead trees, and the surroundings were quiet and unheard.

"It hurts, what is this place?" Xiao Ye took out a stone from under his body, got up and looked around blankly, "Big Tiger, Big Tiger, wake up!" Xiao Ye shook Wang Hu beside him vigorously.

"Uh!" Wang Hu let out a groan, and finally woke up, "Xiao Ye, aren't we in that hole, why did we come here, what kind of place is this?" Wang Hu also noticed that the place in front of him had become different.

"How do I know, the big tiger blames you, who told you to eat that damn fruit!" The first thing Xiao Ye did when he saw Wang Hu wake up was to remember that he had eaten the red fruit, and his whole body was tormented by that inhuman pain.

"Fruit, I remembered. Wang Hu also remembered the pain, "Hey, why doesn't it hurt." Wang Hu stood up and twisted his body.

"Why, you still want to do it again!" Xiao Ye said angrily.

"The ghost just wants to do it again!" Wang Hu broke out in a cold sweat all over his body when he thought of that feeling, and he didn't want to do it a second time.

Xiao Ye glanced at Wang Hu, "Forget it, let's figure out where we are now?"

The two of them walked down the valley, "Why is this place so quiet, is it haunted?" Wang Hu said.

"Can you please stop talking, where did the ghost come from in broad daylight. Xiao Ye said angrily, it was originally a little weird here, but now when Wang Hu said this, Xiao Ye's heart was a little furious.

Wang Hu saw that Xiao Ye was about to get angry, so he immediately kept silent, and the two continued to walk forward for two or three miles, and suddenly saw a snow-white human skeleton appear in front of them.

"Let's see what's going on. Xiao Ye said, and the two came to the corpse and found that several ribs on the chest of the corpse were broken on the ground.

"It seems that this man was killed by someone who was shot through the chest. Xiao Ye said and picked up a bone, and as soon as he pinched it, the bone cracked, "It seems that it has been a long time." ”

"It's really strange, how could this person die here?" Wang Hu said.

"We don't know, but at least it means that someone has been here, let's keep going inside, maybe we can find our way out, and be careful." ”

Xiao Ye and Wang Hu continued to walk inside, and found that there were more and more bones inside, not only people but also huge animal bones.
