and Blood

The vines above my head were still squirming and entangled, and skulls fell down one after another. I heard the screams of the old white ghost crying and howling, and a skull hit his head firmly.

There was a crisp "thunk" sound, but the skull that had been hanging here for thousands of years did not show any signs of weathering or becoming brittle. It did not break. Instead, it bounced like a rubber ball, and then rolled to one side.

.

This was just the beginning. More skulls followed, like a hailstorm. We were in it and there was no way to avoid it. Even I was hit several times without knowing it.

Almost at the same time, the surrounding trees all emitted a ghastly ghostly aura, and black energy floated out from them, and then floated towards a certain skull that fell to the ground.

While watching, the situation in the woods has completely changed in my eyes!!

Ghost energy filled every corner, as if it had become a ghost!

Crying, wailing, begging for mercy, from men and women, old and young, came one after another, one after another.

This reminds me of the Ten Palaces of Yama where sinful people are bound in the underworld. I’m afraid this is the scene there, right?

Soon, these sounds all became low and vague, like unreal murmurs. In the end, they completely turned into a hissing sound, as if something kept blowing against my ear.

Same.

"Don't lie down on the spot, remember to keep moving!!"

I will never forget those things that look like blood vessels protruding from the ground. Even if they are lying on the ground, they will roll over from time to time. As for the sight, they will always remain on the skull not far from me.

This skull was the first to fall. If there is something weird, it should be the first to show it. This may allow us to seize some initiative in the passiveness.

At this moment, the towering ancient tree next to the skull is no longer filled with black energy. To be precise, it should be a person twisted into a gas shape. It has been twisted to the point where it can only be seen that it is a person, and it should be dead.

The souls of the Song people who were sacrificed were sealed in the tree by evil means. In other words, when the evil thing sucked the flesh and blood from the corpse, it also sucked the soul away. After all, Lao Ginseng

I once said that everything here is part of that evil thing.

The soul floated out of the ancient tree head first, then feet last, and then completely cut off contact with the ancient tree.

At that moment, I noticed that the vitality of the ancient tree seemed to be obviously declining. The green moss attached to the bark dried up and fell off in pieces. The exposed bark was also drying and cracking at a speed visible to the naked eye, bursting out "

A snapping sound.

At some point, the vines stopped squirming, and I stood up immediately. Then, I saw vines and branches falling down. Soon I looked up and could no longer see any branches or vines. I could see at a glance the high, connected branches.

tree crown.

As for the fallen vines and branches, they started to squirm.

Lao Bai covered his head and his first reaction was: "Run!! What are you waiting for?!"

However, none of us moved. This guy ran a few steps, felt embarrassed, and stepped back a little.

In fact, why don’t we want to run away? Is it possible to run away?

Thousands, or even tens of thousands, of skulls fell down at the same time. The number was astonishing.

In the past, when I was reading books and looking at information, I often heard about ten thousand troops, which I thought was trivial. After all, the great wars in Chinese history often involved more than one hundred thousand people fighting. After reading more, naturally I didn’t think that there were thousands.

People, what is the concept of ten thousand people...

If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you will never know what it means to be boundless when a person exceeds ten thousand.

Although they are just skulls, not complete people, they are scattered and falling everywhere. It is really boundless. Where can you escape? Running away without understanding the situation is no different from seeking death!!

…

The skull that fell not far from me from the beginning was the first thing to appear. The squirming vines and branches around it slowly "crawled" towards it like insects, and then, little by little, they became entangled.

It became a spiral and wrapped around it.

This scene seemed familiar to me for no reason, and I soon realized it - the spiral branches were very similar to the shape of muscles and other tissues in the human body!!

Could it be that...

My pupils shrank sharply, and a bold thought came to my mind: "That evil thing can directly draw nutrients from living creatures, even souls. Everything here is nourished by this kind of nutrients. It can be understood as

——This is a forest of flesh and blood!! And now, shouldn’t the evil thing spit out the nutrients it swallowed and let those who have been nourished by it reappear?

This is a bit scary. This kind of magical power is almost the same as the flesh and bones of the living and dead. I have never heard of this kind of magic. I am afraid that even Taipingdao who studies magic does not have such ability!!

Hmm, what did the Jurchens sacrifice with human beings here nearly a thousand years ago? So that they raised such an evil thing. This weird ability must be related to the nature of this evil thing..."

As if in answer to my suspicion, the vines wrapped around the skull turned to flesh and blood in the blink of an eye, clinging to the skull bloody.

No skin, no eyes, just a bloody thing.

More vines intertwined under the bloody head, pushing the head up little by little.

Then comes the neck...

Then some of the thicker vines turned into bones, and the leaves on the vines turned into flesh and blood hanging on the bones.

The outline of a person just appeared.

Then, more vines wrapped around the bloody skeleton until... it turned into a bloody man.

For some unknown reason, this thing never grew skin and eyes. Maybe when the evil thing absorbed nutrients from the corpse, it would not absorb the skin and eyes? The condition of the tiger's corpse also confirmed this.

This scene is a bit breathtaking and a bit disgusting.

Seeing a white skull rising from the ground, it finally turned into a person, as if it grew directly from the ground.

Such changes occurred on all the fallen skulls, and the whole forest was filled with a fishy smell.

As for the bloody person not far from me, he was walking towards me little by little at this moment. From the physical characteristics, it can be seen that he is in the shape of a woman and walks like a zombie.

I subconsciously took a few steps back, but the other person was not in a hurry and walked towards me slowly.

Seeing this, I stopped moving and just silently clenched the Baipi knife in my hand.

Suddenly, the corpse raised its head, and its bloody face was pointed at me. I could see the muscles on it beating, and it seemed to be in extreme pain. Then, a female voice came from the body: "Help...help me...

…”

After a pause, it seemed to be in too much pain, and roared almost like a beg: "No, kill, kill me..."

Don't wait for my reaction.

The muscles on its face stopped beating suddenly. If it had skin and eyes, I think its expression would have suddenly calmed down.

Then... it stretched out its bloody hand toward me, and a man's voice came from its body: "Aijian, Aijian..."

Its facial muscles were rising slightly, as if it was smiling at me.

Brother Yaozi couldn't stand it any longer, so he took a breath and rushed forward with the knife: "This is the evil thing, kill it!!!"

I stopped the kite brother, and looked at the people around me who were getting up from the ground out of the corner of my eye. Undoubtedly, these things are now considered to be that evil thing, can they be killed?

"Various previous discoveries have proven that most of this evil thing does not have a clear consciousness and is just acting on instinct!

Aijian, in the birth of a girl, this is a call to respected female elders.

It... was peaceful just now, showing no malice, and seemed to be smiling..."

A series of nods flashed through my mind, but this was also a difficult choice for me.

After a brief hesitation, I felt a sudden change in my heart, pushed Brother Yao Zi away, and stepped forward to hold his bloody hand.

It's cold, a little slippery, and feels like you're holding an octopus in your hand...

My eyebrows skipped a beat. I held the thing in one hand and the knife in the other. At the same time, I carefully observed the opponent. If there was anything wrong with the opponent, I made sure that I could kill it instantly.

However, after I pulled this thing, it fell into a strange sluggish state and became motionless. Because it had no skin, I could clearly see that the muscles on its body were relaxed, and only the face was slightly raised, smiling.

…

I tried to take a few steps forward, and this thing slowly followed me, like a child being pulled by an adult.

"It is indeed unconscious. It should be that I accidentally said that word before, which triggered it and made it misidentify us. This is a good thing, at least it is better than when Xing Wei took the initiative to harm us. At that time, we could only

Face it head on!!

Remember, it means us no harm now!!

Don't attack it, don't attack it!!

Meet all its requirements, just hold it and move forward. This is the only way for us to leave here safely!!!"

I solemnly reminded Brother Yaozi and the others without looking back. At the same time, I observed the condition of the corpse beside me. Seeing that the other party was not stimulated, I breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward fearfully.

"Well...I don't mean to question you, but...who can tell me how I should fool the master in my arms now?"

Lao Bai's slightly embarrassed voice came from behind me.

I paused in my steps, turned my head and glanced, immediately speechless.

I saw, at some point, a child with mutilated flesh and blood hanging in Lao Bai's arms, with his arms around Lao Bai's neck, and his head kept rubbing against Lao Bai's chest, which made Lao Bai's eyelids keep twitching.

Is this... do you want to breastfeed?!

I opened my mouth, not knowing how to deal with this situation for a while...
