Chapter 699: Telling lies

"You can probably guess..."

I'm not surprised at all by what Brother Yaozi said.

If it is a plant, how come it has suckers?

It's called man-eating moss, and it's actually a magical creature that doesn't grow on the wall, but adheres to it. Because the number is so large, it looks like patches of moss, nothing more.

I thought about it and asked tentatively: "A... soft-bodied creature?"

"You're right, that's what the person told me at the beginning!"

Brother Yaozi gave a thumbs up and said: "That person has been studying these weird things all his life, and this kind of man-eating moss is one of them. It's a pity that this person is gone now. Otherwise, if you get some of this thing out, you can

You can get a lot of money from selling it from her. Let her explain this thing to you much more thoroughly than I can..."

"she?"

Lao Bai squinted his eyes, as if he had grasped the key point, and asked with a smile: "Kite, tell your story."

"If you can tell a shitty story, this guy is a lunatic!"

Brother Yaozi glared at Lao Bai and said angrily: "Do you know why this person didn't get it? This person heard that most of us who went to the tomb have seen big rice dumplings, so he was very curious about what it was. Who can say that?

I brought her a big rice dumpling, and she paid a high price of one million for it, but in the end, a wicked person brought a gold-armored and bronze corpse from the tomb, and then... nothing happened, the man was bitten to death."

I was worried that the wounds left by these things were not clean and might become infected, so I kept applying iodine on Xiaozhi. After hearing what happened to this strange person, I was speechless for a while. I shook my head and said, "I don't know whether to praise her or laugh at her. Ignorant people are fearless.

, I really dare to mess with anything.”

Brother Yaozi just smiled and didn't talk about it with Lao Bai, and talked about the man-eating moss again.

According to the madman, this kind of thing should come from the ocean. Under the deep sea, it is sometimes swept up with red tides. The large-scale killings of this thing have appeared in ancient Egypt, and it is recorded in the Book of Exodus.

A huge red tide. After the red tide passed, many dead people appeared on the river, most of them in the shape of mummies, with no internal organs inside. Many modern people believe that those people were poisoned by the red tide, but the madman believed that the murderer was killed.

It's this man-eating moss.

Once this kind of thing is contaminated on a person, it will absorb blood from the person. At first, the person will only feel the skin tightening, and basically will not feel any pain. By the time it is felt, it is already too late, and the body has lost a lot of blood.

Shock, when the blood is almost exhausted, this kind of man-eating moss will secrete a terrible toxin. After the toxin enters the body, the internal organs, muscles, etc. will rot and turn into a paste-like thing. This process is extremely painful.

, people who are in shock will wake up from the pain, but they can't do anything. They just watch the thing rotten into pulp, and the flesh and blood, internal organs, etc. are completely sucked out. By the time this thing eats and drinks enough, the person has become a

The mummy was not even a mummy to be exact, it was just a layer of dry skin, and it looked extremely terrifying.

As for why this thing appears on land, especially in coastal areas, and even in some ancient tombs, Madman is not sure. She guessed that this thing may be an ancient creature. Along with the great changes in the world, some of them remain.

On land, they can survive without water anyway, and have almost no lifespan. As long as they are not roasted by fire, they will almost never die, and it is normal for them to remain under the soil.

Unless these things are actively touched, they have no movement ability. As long as you are vigilant, it is not a big problem.

After resting for a while and treating the wounds left by cannibal moss, the rest of us set off on the road again.

The human-eating moss is too terrifying to kill, so everyone is extremely careful. The tomb passage is not narrow, but they never walk side by side for fear of being contaminated. Fortunately, the cannibal moss seems to be denser only in the area near the tomb door.

There are a lot of them. After walking a little distance, the distribution of the man-eating moss begins to become sparse, with patches in the east and patches in the west. It is no longer a dense and connected sea of ​​red.

"Hey, something's wrong!"

Suddenly, Brother Yaozi, who was walking behind me, stopped, pointed at a patch of man-eating moss attached to the wall of the tomb passage, and said, "Look at this piece of man-eating moss. It's very strange. When gathered together, it looks like a six-pointed star. Before,

I’ve seen a patch of identical man-eating moss!”

"Yes, that's what happened!"

Lao Bai said: "If you don't tell me, I'm going to say it. Where we passed before, there was indeed a ball of the same man-eating moss!"

Not only Lao Bai said this, but Ling Ying, Wu Shuang, and even Xiao Zhi all said so, and they were very sure that there was a mass of man-eating moss in the place they passed before.

Zhang Xinya looked at the determined people and asked hesitantly: "You mean, we have encountered a situation similar to a ghost breaking a wall, and we have been spinning in circles?"

"That's what it means."

Brother Yaozi frowned and said: "I'm pretty sure that I have seen the same lump of man-eating moss before! There must be something wrong with us. It is especially easy to encounter difficulties in the tomb passage. We have encountered the same situation many times before.

Well, it may not all be ghosts beating the wall, but people do keep running around in circles. Do you remember the tomb passage we encountered in Wutou Mountain before? Because of the design of the tomb passage, people are always going in circles. You see

The tomb passage we are walking through now is spiraling and sloping upward. This kind of tomb passage is the easiest to design into a maze..."

After saying this, he turned back to look at me: "Jingzhe, you are an expert in this field... tell me about it!"

To be honest, I really don’t know what to say!!

They all insisted that they had definitely seen a mass of identical man-eating moss before. What else could I say?

If you agree with them...

The thing is... I don't remember seeing an identical clump of man-eating moss before!

From my perspective, we have indeed been moving along the tomb passage, not going in circles at all!

I'm pretty sure that I haven't seen the same shape of man-eating moss before, so I definitely didn't ignore it.

The most dangerous thing in this tomb passage is the human-eating moss. Once it is contaminated, if it is not discovered in time, there will be no other way except death. Walking in this passage, everyone's attention will be on these man-eating moss.

I was afraid that something unexpected would happen. In this case, how could I ignore it?

However, humans all have a herd mentality.

When everyone points to a horse and says it is a deer, even if you are very sure that it is a horse, you will gradually have doubts about whether you have made a mistake...

Therefore, from ancient times to the present, there are very few people who can keep everyone drunk and me alone sober. Such people are also the only ruthless people in a million.

I'm not that kind of cruel person. At this moment, under everyone's gaze, I couldn't help but scratch my head and began to have self-doubt...

Fortunately, among the many affirmative eyes, there was one person who had the same doubts as me.

So, I grabbed Zhang Xinya and said, "What about you? Have you seen the same shape of man-eating moss?"

"I……"

Zhang Xinya opened her mouth, raised her head and met my eyes with a wry smile.

The two looked at each other and confirmed that they were the same people as themselves!

"No, we have a problem!!"

My tone immediately became positive: "You are all sure that you saw it, but Zhang Xinya and I are also sure that we have never seen the same shape of man-eating moss!!"

Two groups of people, two results.

Obviously, only one group of people is right, either Zhang Xinya and I are right, or Brother Yaozi and the others are right.

But no matter what, we must have a problem!

"We can't continue going down. If we go further forward, we might fall into a pit!"

Brother Yaozi and I looked at each other, and we both said almost in unison: "Turn back!!"

This is the only way at the moment. Only by going back and walking again can we determine who among us is right and whether we are trapped or not. This is very important. Who is right? So what happens next?

You should listen to someone and follow the wrong person, and the final result will be death!

So, the group turned around and started to turn back.

The cannibal moss in the tomb passage is getting denser and denser, gradually becoming one piece. At a glance, the entire tomb passage is bright red.

This shows that we are very close to the entrance to the tomb.

And from beginning to end, there was no piece of man-eating moss distributed in the same six-pointed star pattern.

Zhang Xinya and I were right!

"What the hell is going on..."

Brother Yaozi had a solemn expression on his face and murmured to himself: "But now I am very sure that I have indeed seen a piece of man-eating moss with the same shape..."

Lao Bai smiled bitterly and nodded: "Me too, even if I go back and read it again in person, I still haven't changed my opinion..."

This situation is strange. A few people are conscious and organized, and they don't seem to have been confused by something. But why are their memories different from ours?

"that……"

Ling Ying cleared her throat, and after getting the attention of several of us, she carefully whispered: "I have studied a little bit of psychology for work. Our current situation should be the so-called 'Mandela Effect'
