Chapter 43: Blood Dry Forest (two chapters in one)
, Infinite Script Killer
Before the boatman's head fell off his neck, Chang Wenzhen caught him in his hand.
"Hey!!"
I saw Chang Wuzhen lifting the head in front of him, with a beast-like smile on his lips: "This time you try another one!"
"You...repay kindness with hatred!!"
The boatman was not a living person. He was still alive after his head was beheaded by Xu Tong. He stared at Chang Wenzhen in front of him in horror.
The smile on Chang Wuzhen's face grew stronger, he put the boatman's head close to his face and whispered in his ear:
"Yes, I like to repay kindness with vengeance the most. I not only like to repay kindness with vengeance, but I also especially like to eat fresh food. Although you are a bit old, you can make do with it. Later, I will throw you into the oil pan and eat it, hehehehehe
, you see I have all the sugar and garlic ready."
"head……"
Gao Zhuo looked at Chang Wuju's morbid expression and couldn't help but look at Xu Tong in confusion.
But I heard Xu Tong say in the team channel: "It can't be trusted, it can't be heard, it can't be spoken. Isn't it written clearly on the stone tablet?"
Of course, just based on the words on the stone tablet, I might not attack the boatman. After all, I am not that kind of perverted murderer.
But when he stuffed a piece of money into the boatman's arms, the boatman looked like he didn't care at all, which made Xu Tong start to feel alert in his heart.
He believes that there are good people in this world, but good people and greed are not in conflict.
A kind-hearted person will be ecstatic when he sees one million cash delivered to him.
What?? Donated?? Oh, that’s not called kindness, that’s called a saint.
It's just that there are only a very small number of saints.
Compared with the sage, Xu Tong is more willing to believe in another sentence: being good without any reason is not for wealth, but for life.
He told Gao Zhuo not to worry and just let Chang Wuzhen be the bad guy.
Sure enough, under the stimulation of Chang Wuzhen's almost perverted words, the boatman's face became more and more frightened. When he saw Chang Wuzhen starting to take off his clothes, the boatman finally couldn't bear it anymore and became angry in fear.
I saw that the original friendly and kind expression became distorted in an instant, revealing a face with dark red eyes, fangs exposed at the mouth, and a pig nose turned out.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good person.
When people are in great fear, they often become extremely angry, and obviously evil spirits are no exception to this.
"You little bastards, I will let my king cut your corpses into thousands of pieces later, take out your intestines and eat them all!"
All kinds of unpleasant insults were shouted out under the ferocious face of the boatman.
But when he saw that Chang Wugu had taken out a neat set of tableware and a picnic stove from the prop book.
The scolding gradually turned into pleading: "Please, I don't want to be destroyed physically and mentally. As long as you are willing to let me go, I am willing to work hard for you."
Chang Wusu silently raised the delicate knife and looked at the thin body of the boatman in front of him with critical eyes.
The cold blade touched the boatman's skin, and he asked calmly, "So, you took us across the river to send us to see your king?"
Watching the blade gradually move downstream, the boatman finally couldn't resist the tremendous psychological pressure and told everything he knew in one breath.
It turns out that their king is hiding in the middle of the water. After the boatman sends the boat over, their king will surface, open his bloody mouth, turn into a cave, and then wait for them to take the bait.
As long as you enter the cave, it is their king's territory, and no matter how powerful you are, you will never survive.
"This old thief disguises himself really well. Fortunately, I still regard him as a good person."
Gao Zhuo on the side felt cold sweat in his heart. They were unfamiliar with the place, and the boatman looked worried about them. He said that he had to gain their trust without knowing it, and he would die without knowing how.
If you know the reason, it will be easier to solve. Xu Tong looked at the headless corpse in front of him and suddenly had an idea in his mind...
"Wow~"
Apart from the boatman, there was only one man sitting on the bow of the black water boat.
The boatman swung his oars and passed through a fog, when a huge cave suddenly appeared in front of him.
"We're here, all you have to do is walk inside."
The boatman pointed forward in a hoarse voice and said.
The figure sitting on the bow nodded numbly, jumped off the boat, and walked forward step by step.
The tunnel was filled with a sour smell.
As I was walking, my feet suddenly felt weak and one foot suddenly sank into the soil.
Looking down, he saw a rotten little hand greedily hugging his thigh under the soft soil.
"You've been fooled, you've been fooled, and there's delicious food delivered to your door again."
Distorted faces emerged from the surrounding soil, letting out sharp laughter. A group of evil spirits rushed forward and began to tear the man's clothes, and their sharp claws began to tear apart the man's body like sharp knives.
From the beginning to the end, the man's expression was very calm, without even a hint of symbolic struggle.
An evil ghost moved his face up curiously, looking up and down at the man's face. Seeing the layers of thick paper charms wrapped around the man's face, there was a bit of confusion in his eyes.
Just when the evil ghost stretched out his fingers to tear these paper charms apart, suddenly a dazzling electric light flashed from the man's empty eyeballs.
"boom!!"
There was a sudden loud explosion in the cave, followed by a dazzling light of lightning overflowing from the entrance of the cave.
"Ouch"
Painful wailing sounds came from the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, the entrance of the cave in front of him began to tremble. The seemingly solid boulders cracked open, revealing black and sticky skin. A huge eyeball opened above the entrance of the cave, staring at it.
Boatman.
Unexpectedly, the boatman took off his hat, revealing an unfamiliar face. He suddenly jumped up from the boat, and saw the pure Yang sword in his hand burning with scorching light.
"Pyrophilia!!"
Pure Yang fire, fierce swordsmanship, the magic flame that combined the power of demons, and the fusion of hell fire, the fire light formed a strange blood light, and as Xu Tong slashed with his sword, the entire lake was reflected in a vermilion.
Sea of fire.
"boom!!"
The unexpected fireball exploded in front of the giant eye, and at the same time, the Pure Yang Sword cut under the skin and flesh of the giant monster in front of him, as smooth as cutting tofu, from head to tail.
He suddenly cut a huge wound on the monster's face.
"Roar!!"
Suffering severe injuries one after another, the monster twisted its body in pain, and tentacles protruded from the water one after another.
The flesh on the huge tentacles twisted, revealing human faces. For a moment, the dense eyes opened, and their vicious gazes locked on Xu Tong's body.
"Kill you!!"
For a moment, huge tentacles flapped towards Xu Tong, but Xu Tong was seen stepping on the black water with both feet, not affected by the black water at all, and his figure flickered and kept retreating.
"Boom boom boom!!"
Tentacles hit the water one after another, causing huge waves to crash down towards Xu Tong.
"I'm waiting for you to come out!"
Seeing that most of the monster's body emerged from the black water, Xu Tong opened his hands and waved his palms. The Xuanyuan Shield appeared in front of him, and a huge cold current suddenly broke out above the blue shield light.
Countless spears made of ice erupted on the water, and some tentacles were pierced by the ice on the spot.
While the monster was feeling pain, its eyes were suddenly covered by dazzling arcs of electricity. In an instant, ice and thunder alternated, causing the monster's whole body to twitch uncontrollably.
"Hahaha, let me come!!"
At this time, a burst of wild laughter was heard, and Chang Wenzhen's figure appeared quietly on top of the monster's head. A bone blade appeared in the palm of his hand and slashed forward. The next moment, the figure appeared on top of the monster.
in front of the eyeballs.
The bone blade pierced the monster's eyeball on the spot, and black blood leaked out like a dam opening.
This series of blows made this monster, who was called the King of Black Water by the boatman, feel extremely depressed at this moment.
Before I could even take a bite of my meal, I was pushed to the ground and hammered by these thugs.
When he saw the figures of Lilith and Gao Zhuo walking on the ice, the King of Black Water finally became afraid and immediately gave up his tentacles that were frozen on the water to escape forcefully.
"We are all here, why are you running away!!"
Lilith's figure arrived in an instant, and a dazzling inverse pentagonal light appeared, a crimson ray, which almost split the Blackwater King in half.
At this time, the Black Water King was completely afraid. It was not good at being so confrontational. Instead, if it deceived these guys into its belly and relied on the endless evil spirits in its belly, even the evil spirit would be filled with hatred.
Here it is.
But because of the boatman's incompetence, Xu Tong saw the flaw early.
Seeing that Lilith was about to kill her, King Blackwater hurriedly said: "Don't kill me, I am willing to give you a treasure and send you to the other side."
"If I kill you, we can slowly find the treasure. As for the other side, we can also go to the other side by ourselves."
Lilith opened her palms, and layers of complex magic arrays appeared in her palms.
"No, no, no, I have a big secret that I can tell you!!"
Looking at the complex magic circle in Lilith's palm, King Black Water's skin and flesh trembled, and countless faces of men and women screamed in fear.
Hearing this, Xu Tong walked to Lilith and asked: "What secret??"
"Is it possible to exchange a life?" King Blackwater asked.
However, when she saw Lilith's displeased brows, she hurriedly said: "If you go further, you will reach the Ghost-faced Forest, the territory of Thousand-faced Old Monster. Although you are powerful, you may not be the opponent of Thousand-faced Old Monster. I can
Let me tell you the true identity of the Thousand-Faced Old Monster."
When death was imminent, in order to save his life, King Blackwater did not care about the life of his best friend, and opened his mouth to reveal the weakness of the Thousand-Faced Old Monster.
This thousand-faced old monster is a ten thousand-year-old tree demon that sucked the filthy air in front of the ghost gate and turned into a forest.
Every tree is his clone. Unless it is the Yin Shen of Taozhi Mountain, once an outsider walks in, not only will they not be able to get out, but they will be sucked away by the surrounding blood trees at all times.
The more movements there are, the more power is absorbed.
The only way is to destroy his true body.
King Blackwater stretched out a tentacle and took out a dark jar from his mouth.
It looks like a pickle jar, but there is a strange fragrance inside.
Xu Tong was worried that there was a scam, so he just summoned a paper man to pick him up.
"The old monster with a thousand faces has a weakness. He is blind and deaf. He cannot hear or see, but he has a strong sense of smell. As long as you smear this thing on your body, he will not be able to detect you."
Hearing what King Blackwater said, Xu Tongcai took the jar and tried to throw it into the prop book.
【Resentful Water Mud】
A very strange substance, when applied to the body, can block all olfactory detection.
Duration: 3 hours
Cooling time: 7 hours.
After looking at the entry in the props booklet that proved that this item was harmless, Xu Tong finally began to believe the words of King Blackwater a little bit.
But this didn't really reassure him.
"It's okay not to kill you, but just in case, I can only torture you for a while first!"
While Xu Tong was speaking, he took out the Demonic Bell. With the bell in his hand, he shook it lightly and stretched out his hand to launch the soul arresting technique on the Black Water King.
But the moment he took action, Xu Tong's pace was interrupted by the sound of galloping horse hooves behind him.
"boom!!"
Following the rapid sound of breaking wind, Xu Tong instinctively hugged Lilith sideways and escaped.
Then a stream of light was seen, penetrating through the ice, flying past Xu Tong and Lilith, and just in time to pierce the head of King Blackwater with an arrow.
Suddenly, King Blackwater's body trembled violently, and the human faces on his flesh began to shrink rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into black powder and began to dissipate on the netherworld.
Xu Tong suddenly turned around and saw the black-armored warrior on a horse in the distance, holding the long bow and staring at him coldly.
"Fuck, this guy is still haunted!"
Xu Tong's face turned cold when he saw this. He turned back to look at Lilith and whispered, "Can you beat me?"
Lilith looked at the black-armored warrior and shook her head solemnly: "No, this guy is blessed by a great god. We are really no match."
If you have the blessing of Godhead, it will be easy to deal with this guy Lilith.
But I'm afraid he is no match for this guy at this moment.
"If you can't beat me, just run away."
Xu Tong sighed helplessly and said to Gao Zhuo and Chang Wuju: "The wind is blowing hard!"
As he said this, Xu Tong raised his hand and struck the black water in front of him with his sword. For a moment, the black water stirred up huge waves, and then the Xuanyuan Shield was activated. Biting cold air burst out, freezing the waves and turning them into a layer of ice.
The wall blocks their presence.
Then they took Lilith and stepped on a huge piece of broken ice. Gao Zhuo and Chang Wugu knew the idea was going to hurt, so they didn't dare to show any desire to fight and immediately followed them.
"Sit tight!"
Xu Tong shouted, then called out the cold iron gourd with one hand, opened the gourd plug and pointed it behind him.
The Wind Spitting Blade was activated, and an ice storm spurted out from the lake. With this violent wind, it quickly pushed the solid ice under its feet and glided on the water.
Not to mention the speed is quite fast, comparable to that of a small yacht.
Maybe when Xie Qifanba gave this gourd to Xu Tong, he didn't expect that one day, this thing would be able to be used like this.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Arrows continued to shoot through the ice wall behind him. Fortunately, there was an ice wall blocking them. These arrows had almost no accuracy and could only create huge whirlpools on the water.
"hiss!!"
Seeing how terrifying the power of the arrow was, Gao Zhuo couldn't help but take a breath and looked back. The ice wall behind him had been shattered by the arrow, and the black-armored warrior was riding on horseback.
The war horse under its crotch completely ignored the influence of the black water. If you look closely, you can see that the hooves of the war horse have not landed on the water at all, but are hanging in the air.
“Didn’t it say that only the Ghost Emperor can fly??”
Seeing this, Xu Tong couldn't help but feel a little in his heart. The other party's behavior of clearly ignoring the prohibition was definitely not a good thing. I was afraid that if he really handed over Lilith at this moment, the other party might not be able to let them survive.
Who is this guy??
Fortunately, although the opponent's mount was not affected by the black water, its speed in the air was much slower than on the ground. In addition, Xu Tong and others relied on the push of the cold iron gourd to move faster and faster, and they gradually managed to
throw away.
"It's the woods!"
Soon, a large area of bright red forest appeared ahead.
The trees in this forest are of unknown age, each branch is as thick as an adult's waist, and the main trunk is so round that it would take four or five adult men to round it.
There are leaves on the tree that look like maple leaves, but each leaf is extremely huge, so there is no problem in hiding a person.
The land of Hades is thousands of miles away, with no grass growing, but there is such a large forest here, which is really rare.
However, they have already learned from King Blackwater about the dangers of this forest.
It is inevitable to be on guard in my heart.
"Maybe it's an opportunity!"
Chang stared at the woods ahead carelessly, thinking about what King Blackwater had just said, and thought, if this forest really has that kind of terrifying power, maybe they can take advantage of it.
Then he said to Xu Tong: "Take out the jar of mud and let everyone put it on it."
Xu Tong was startled, then nodded, and took out the [Resentful Water Ointment] that King Blackwater had just given. Everyone ignored the smell of this stuff and applied it directly on their bodies carefully.
At this time, Gao Zhuo looked back at Xu Tong and found that Xu Tong seemed a little absent-minded. He couldn't help but ask: "Are you okay?"
"fine!"
Xu Tong shook his head, but he couldn't help but think of Zhu Rongzhi's words: "I saw your death date. Just recently, the blood was sprinkled all over the red leaves, and your body will fall to the ground."
Under a bloody tree, you have no way to survive!"
This low roar echoed in Xu Tong's ears. Just when he was hesitating in his heart, a hand tightly clenched Xu Tong's palm. When he looked up, he saw Lilith's blazing red eyes staring at him.
Lilith pointed her finger at Xu Tong's heart: "I believe you!"
Xu Tong's pupils tightened, and then he took a deep breath, his eyes gradually becoming sharper: "Then I will never let you lose!"
As he said that, Xu Tong stretched out his hand, and saw four golden pills appearing in his palm. They were the trump card [Calendula] that he had prepared for a long time.
