Wu Family Sword Spirit

Chapter 358 The Root of the Tree Breaking Out of the Earth

Looking at the scene in front of me, I was completely dumbfounded, and even felt like I was in another world.

Am I dreaming?
What about the village?Where did the old woman and the little girl go?

Why is there still an old forest here, and what's going on with the towering tree in front of me?
It turns out that Xue Xiaoqi and I have been staying in the hole of this towering tree.

I stood there, looking around warily. When I stretched out my hand, the dozens of copper coins swirling around the tree hole merged together and flew towards me. I held them tightly again. in hand.

The second senior brother was right next to my feet, growling lowly in his throat, as if he was warning me.

My mind is running rapidly, thinking about what happened today.

After coming out of Bao Ren Qingshan, we found a driver of a black truck to take Xue Xiaoqi and I back to Dongchen's hometown. When we passed by a gas station, the driver said he was out of gas and planned to refuel, but the owner of the gas station was a bit agitated. It was strange. They kicked us out at first. After we finally got in, the boss told us something very strange. He said that a woman dressed like a shroud came here to buy several packs of milk for several nights in a row. , and also gave the ghost coins.

As a result, when it was past eleven o'clock, several of us witnessed with our own eyes that strange woman made a series of strange actions in front of us.

It was a strange woman who exuded the smell of zombies and exuded terrifying power. Then, Xue Xiaoqi and I chased her all the way.

However, unfortunately, Xue Xiaoqi and I lost track of that strange woman when we were chasing her. What was even more unfortunate was that we lost our way in the old forest of Huangshan Mountain. Suddenly there was fog in the forest, and then the two of us lost our way. The senior brother pointed out the direction for us and took us out of the misty old forest. Then, we met the little girl at the foot of the hillside and sent us to the village. We met the little girl’s grandmother and drank the After the old woman gave us tea, Xue Xiaoqi and I became confused, and then we lay on the same bed and fell asleep.

When I woke up, everything changed. Xue Xiaoqi and I did not sleep on the bed, but in a tree hole, entangled by countless thorny vines. The old woman and the little girl also changed. They changed their appearance and became two monsters that could spread branches and leaves.

They wanted to eat me and Xue Xiaoqi, including the second senior brother.

And after all this, I finally escaped.

This is how things happened. It seemed like there was a problem somewhere. Which link was it?

We obviously came here to chase that strange woman, so why did we encounter two monsters, an old one and a young one?
At the beginning, everything seemed normal. The key to this problem should be what happened after we got lost, that is, after the fog started in the old forest.

When I thought of the fog, an idea flashed in my mind, and I suddenly woke up. I thought there must be something fishy about the fog, which made Xue Xiaoqi and I fall in love without knowing it. I heard that it often happens in the deep mountains and old forests in the south. If miasma occurs, if inhaled, it will cause hallucinations and even death from poisoning.

If it is summer in the north, when the weather is extremely hot, miasma will also appear, which is formed by the fermentation of some rotten branches and leaves and animal carcasses.

I think so. It was the sudden appearance of the mist that made Xue Xiaoqi and I become unconscious. However, the second senior brother is a strange beast in the hell and is not disturbed by these worldly things at all. It was always awake. From the first time he saw the little girl, the second senior brother knew that it would be harmful to us, and he was about to pounce on the little girl. At that time, I thought the second senior brother was a ferocious beast from hell. It's very sexual, and when it sees a stranger, it's about to snap and bite. I can't help but feel a little resentful towards it. It seems that I really blamed it.

Although I haven't been in contact with this little thing for long, it has already recognized me as its little master, so it will spare no effort to protect me.

It is still so weak, but it has such thoughts, which really touches me.

My mind went back and forth a thousand times, thinking about what happened today, and at this moment, Xue Xiaoqi's voice came to my ears, interrupting my thoughts.

"Xiao Jiu... what are you doing? Don't be frightened... why are you silent..."

Well, I was just thinking about these messy things at the moment, but I ignored Xue Xiaoqi who was still in the tree hole, so I quickly responded: "Brother Xiaoqi, come out, it's safe here, there is nothing wrong."

"Brother, I'm scared to death. There's been no movement for a while. I thought you were in trouble." Xue Xiaoqi let out a long breath and walked out of the tree hole unsteadily. He glanced around me cautiously, only to find me standing not far away, trotting towards me.

Just as Xue Xiaoqi ran two steps, something strange happened. A long tree root suddenly protruded from the soil under Xue Xiaoqi's feet and wrapped around Xue Xiaoqi's legs. Ankle, Xue Xiaoqi still ran forward with inertia, and was dragged directly to the ground, and suddenly let out a exclamation.

Seeing this scene, I was also taken aback. Immediately without saying a word, I threw the copper coin sword in my hand towards the tree root that entangled Xue Xiaoqi. At the same time, my figure rose from the ground. , also rushed towards Xue Xiaoqi.

At this moment, a root sprouted from the ground under my feet, and it wrapped around my ankle. As soon as I jumped up, I was dragged to the ground by the root, and fell hard. one time.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the sound of ground breaking on the ground, and roots continued to stretch out and spread toward me.

However, the copper coin sword I threw out was very well prepared, and it slashed at the root of the tree that was entangled with Xue Xiaoqi, and cut it off immediately. Turned over, got up, and ran towards me. Unexpectedly, just as Xue Xiaoqi escaped from the danger, he was soon entangled by the roots of the tree protruding from the ground. He was bound tightly, just hanging on me. piece.

The towering tree not far in front of us made a roaring sound, like cheerful laughter.

Obviously, this ghost trick is caused by the towering tree in front of me. This tree seems to be alive, so there must be something wrong.

Just when Xue Xiaoqi and I were both entangled by tree roots, two people soon appeared behind the towering tree.
