Liao Xin's chest was full of blood, but there was no blood on the paper figure that crawled out of his arms. It was about the size of a palm and had an unhealthy paleness all over its body. There were no facial features on its face, and there were two strange lumps on its cheeks.
scarlet.
The paper man crawled along Liao Xin's collar to his face, looked at him condescendingly for a while, then silently leaned down and lay on the corpse's face in a big letter shape.
After a while, the paper man's body gradually changed, as if being pulled by an invisible hand, and gradually formed a mask, completely covering the corpse's face without leaving any gaps.
Soon, a large number of bulges appeared on the flat mask, like bubbles that kept appearing and bursting, as if something was crawling underneath.
Time passed by, and about ten minutes later, something strange happened.
I saw bloody threads of flesh and blood suddenly emerging from the huge blood hole on Liao Xin's body, running back and forth between his right chest, as if someone was using a needle and thread to mend the wound, and the right chest was quickly repaired.
This was obviously not a healing ability, but an extremely rough stitching of flesh. The repaired right chest looked extremely ugly and hideous, with a lot of flesh and blood even sticking out, which was disgusting.
However, the repairers don't seem to care about this, they just need the body to be a little more complete.
After that, the mask on Liao Xin's face gradually dissolved, as if it was completely integrated into the body. This made Liao Xin's complexion become much pale. The next second, he suddenly opened his eyes, his body twitched twice, and then
He sat up straight.
His eyes were very different from before. He looked lifeless. He opened his mouth and tried to say a few words. After he became proficient in pronunciation, he took out his mobile phone.
However, the mobile phone was destroyed in the battle just now. Liao Xin looked expressionless as he casually pulled out the mobile phone from a corpse and dialed a number.
"Everyone died."
His voice sounded extremely stiff.
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be asking something. He replied: "I met a woman in a wedding dress. She is estimated to be A-level or above. Her abilities are very terrifying. They died without even touching her."
"Hmm... It seems to be an ability that can make bullets turn back. The bullets have a certain effect. Her ability should be interfered with, but it is not obvious, and the sniper rifle was taken away."
"I will continue to confirm the target's location, but if the target is protected by this woman, the mission will fail."
"If you must get her, you need support."
After saying that, Liao Xin hung up the phone. Without even looking at the corpses around him, he took out the gauze from his backpack and randomly wrapped the wound several times, barely covering Zhenling's wound.
After making sure that no one else would notice anything unusual, he picked up a gun from the ground and left.
…
Before the restricted area was expanded, there were already many terrible legends in Beijulin.
Many people say they have seen ghosts here, and there have been incidents of people escaping from the Dove Forest becoming mentally disturbed, crying late at night, and seeing ghosts in the forest... There are many horror stories here.
Although no one has ever really confirmed the existence of ghosts in the forest, few people come here. Although there is no restricted area stone tablet, in the minds of many people, Beijiu Forest is also a restricted area that cannot be easily spied on.
It is worth mentioning that even after the expansion of the restricted area, there are few traces of restricted creatures near the Beijiu Forest located within the buffer zone. It seems that even those weird things are afraid of this place.
The people in the black market are not the natives of Wuji City, so although they have heard some legends about Beijiulin, they don't have much respect for them.
They never believed in ghosts, so after repeatedly confirming that there was nothing unusual in the Beijiu Forest, they left the child in the forest.
Since the terrifying legend of Beijulin is spreading, ordinary people dare not approach it at all. In addition, creatures in the restricted area rarely appear nearby. Therefore, as long as the fear is overcome, Beijulin is undoubtedly a safer hiding place.
It is indeed doubtful that creatures in the restricted area can stay away, but living anywhere in the buffer zone requires taking risks. In the final analysis, it depends on how to weigh the pros and cons. If you have scruples everywhere, there will be no place for this dangerous place.
place.
Moreover, they also carefully investigated Bei Jiulin's situation.
People on the black market sell not only food and water, but also eye-catching and precious items such as rare firearms. This undoubtedly requires a lot of risks in the buffer zone with no rules. There have been many fights in the past.
There are often scary forbidden creatures appearing nearby, and it will only be more dangerous for children to follow them.
At this moment, Yang Yiyi was standing in front of the entrance of Beijiulin.
She is also not an aborigine of Wuji City, so her understanding of Beijulin is relatively limited. She has only vaguely heard a few rumors. However, when she actually faced this mysterious forest, she could still feel the weirdness of Beijulin.
.
The entrance is a very open gravel road, with dead trees more than three meters high on both sides. They look like they are malnourished. The trunks and branches are weirdly twisted, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
As the road gets deeper and deeper, the height and number of dead trees on both sides gradually increase, and the wide gravel road becomes narrower and narrower, as if extending infinitely, giving people the feeling of being gradually lost in the woods.
Feel.
Yang Yiyi only hesitated for a moment before embarking on this wide gravel road.
The dead trees on both sides of the road just looked weird and not dangerous, which made her sigh in relief, but she still held the charm in her hand tight at all times and did not dare to let down her guard.
As she continued to move forward, the gravel road became narrower and narrower, and because this change was not obvious, when Yang Yiyi noticed it, she found that she was already deep in the shellfish forest.
The dead trees on both sides were already terrifyingly tall, blocking most of the sunlight and only casting some sparse, twisted shadows that swayed from time to time, making people feel heartbroken.
And it was only then that Yang Yiyi noticed that the surrounding trees seemed a little strange - if you ignored the thin branches, its trunk looked like a painful human figure standing upright on one leg, with the remaining leg and arm twisted and intertwined.
, the top trunk is slightly depressed, like a head peeking down secretly.
All the dead trees seemed to be in this posture, staring down at the girl who broke into the forest.
After all, Yang Yiyi had lived alone for so long, and her courage was not too small. She kept telling herself that this was just a psychological effect and moved on.
Seeing that the gravel road was getting narrower and narrower, she finally saw a fork not far ahead.
The intersection leads to three directions respectively. There are two dead trees with connected branches on the left and right of each road, just like a portal. Yang Yiyi recalled what Sister Miaomiao said. The third passage mentioned by the other party should be the one on the far right.
She looked back at this road, then walked on it without hesitation and chose to turn right.
From the fork in the road, there are no more gravel roads. Fortunately, I can still see the rudimentary shape of the road, so I can't lose my direction. There are more and more dead trees around, but not even half a leaf can be seen on the ground, and there are no
The broken branches and the soil were extremely soft and looked very fertile.
Yang Yiyi didn't waste time, speeded up, and soon came to the end of the road——
The reason why it is said to be the end is because there is a bottomless cliff after which it is impossible to go back. However, the strange thing is that there are actually many dead trees like those in the forest growing on the vertical cliff.
It grows sideways like this, but it still has a painful human shape.
Yang Yiyi looked around and soon saw a house made of gray stones near the left side of the cliff. The house was very impressive and detailed, and it took a lot of effort to see it.
"It should be right here..."
Yang Yiyi approached the house cautiously. She was not worried that the children would not know her identity. Sister Miaomiao had said that there were several people left in the black market to protect these children. They should know her.
She came to the door of the house, and instead of barging in directly, she knocked lightly on the door.
"Is anyone here?"
No one answered or opened the door.
Yang Yiyi was not surprised by this. It was a good thing to be vigilant in the buffer zone, so she knocked on the door again and said, "Is anyone there? Sister Miaomiao asked me to come here. I am Yang Yiyi."
"
Still no movement.
She frowned slightly, put her ear against the door, listened carefully, and found that there was no sound at all in the room.
"Going out?"
After thinking for a moment, she decided to open the door and go in to take a look.
The door was locked from the inside, as if the bolt had been placed. Yang Yiyi's expression remained unchanged, she took out a charm, inserted it into the crack of the door and fiddled with it twice. The door soon opened.
She seems to have a lot of experience in this area.
"Excuse me."
The walls were inlaid with illuminated stones, and the room was very bright. After Yang Yiyi entered the room, she looked around and then in every room. Daily necessities, food and water were all available in the room, but there was no one there.
.
She frowned. The door was clearly locked from the inside. How could there be no one in the room... Could it be that those children were wary of me, a stranger, so they hid it?
"Is anyone there? Sister Miaomiao asked me to come here. Shen Miaomiao, she and I are friends!"
She shouted loudly and looked around again, but still found nothing, which made her a little worried.
At this time, Yang Yiyi was standing in a relatively small room. There were three small beds in the room, as well as many toys. There were daggers hanging on each bedside, which should have been used by the children to defend themselves at critical moments.
There are obviously three children living in this room. Judging from the size of the bed, they are not too old. Logically speaking, they should not leave the house so far...
At this moment, a sudden chill hit her. Yang Yiyi turned around and saw that the window was blown open by a gust of cold wind, making a banging sound.
She walked over and was about to close the window, but suddenly she noticed that there seemed to be drag marks on the edge of the window, as well as some dark soil, and her eyes suddenly focused——
To be continued...
