Ye Zhaoling looked at the motionless fishhook above her head, and then looked down at the lava below her feet. The feeling of being hoisted with her wrists as the point of strength was quite uncomfortable. Within a few minutes, she felt her arms were sore and then numb due to the struggle.
.
The only good thing was that the wound on her shoulder started to hurt terribly at the same time. She couldn't remember how many times the wound had burst, but it also allowed her to maintain some sanity instead of being completely ruined.
However, the pain is extremely real.
The fishing line is extremely thin but as strong as steel.
With just such a thin piece wrapped twice around the wrist, it was possible to hang such a large number of living people in the air!
In fact, when she saw her father also hanging by the fishing line, Ye Zhaoling didn't have to try so hard to break free from the fishing line.
My father gained weight in middle age, and it got even worse as he got older. He now weighs at least nearly 200 kilograms.
However, this thin fishing line hung him so steadily, with no sign of breaking at all.
Ye Zhaoling was convinced that she could not break it. Even if she broke the fishing line, she would not be able to escape the danger. The magma under her feet was still waiting to melt her skin and bones into a puddle of rotten flesh.
As the fishing line became tighter and tighter during the struggle, it pierced the flesh on the wrist, and blood overflowed. They flowed down the blue blood vessels, staining the hideous scars on the arms one after another, and staining the veins of the leaves red.
.
Then one drop after another fell on Ye Zhaoling's face.
She had to hold her face high to prevent all the blood from dripping into her hair. It would be very laborious to clean it like that...
Well, it's not all because of this. Most of the reason why she doesn't want to bow her head is the magma in the "honeycomb jar" below.
This thing is so scary.
Ye Zhaoling always felt that there was something hidden in the magma.
As she watched, her eyes fell on her father involuntarily.
If these conspiracies had not occurred, in the hearts of everyone in Qingcheng, the head of the Ye family would undoubtedly be the most responsible leader in the world.
There are thirty thousand people in Qingcheng, everyone is prosperous, and there is not a single wandering beggar along the street.
In the coldest month of winter, relief centers for stray cats, dogs and other stray animals can be seen everywhere, and everyone is willing to spread kindness.
In just three days, everything changed.
If Huang Daozhang had not been unable to hold back and ordered Zhang Yu to kill her with poison just to collect her soul, after the expiration of ten years, could his father really be cruel enough to kill her?
Ye Zhaoling took a deep breath.
It's quite sad, no one firmly chooses her, she is like a unnecessary joke.
"Ga! Ga! Ga!"
So ugly!
Several unpleasant bird calls interrupted her self-pitying mood. Ye Zhaoling's brain swelled when she heard it, and she almost wanted to cut off her ears.
The birds chirped louder and louder.
Bird: Are you polite? None of us have provoked you, so why are you scolding us for making unpleasant noises?
Five vultures suddenly flew down from the darkness above their heads, their gray wings fluttering. They flew around Ye Zhaoling several times, with a bit of human indignation in their gray-brown eyes.
Ye Zhaoling frowned. Vultures don't eat living things. Why do you feel like these birds want to eat you alive?
When did she offend the bird?
Three of them flew neatly around the nine people, like a predator examining its prey.
After a while, the first one landed on the head of Ye Jiu, the other landed on the head of the old Taoist doctor in black robe, and the last one circled a few times and landed on the head of his father.
Ye Zhaoling's heart skipped a beat.
In her shocked eyes, the vulture on Ye Jiu's head opened its curved and sharp beak and pecked Ye Jiu's arm.
Ye Jiu closed his eyes and let out a painful scream from his throat.
The vulture did not stop.
"Go away!"
Ye Zhaoling barked at it, and the vulture tilted its head and stared at her for a while, then continued to peck at the flesh on Ye Jiu's arm.
She shouted a few more times, but the vultures ignored her. She could only look at the remaining two vultures, but found that they were just squatting above the two people, with their wings closed and their eyes closed. There was nothing.
Do.
The last two vultures flying low in the air suddenly swooped down. One pecked off the fishing line, and the other stretched out its sharp claws and grabbed Ye Zhaoling's arm.
Ye Zhaoling was caught off guard by this turn of events.
After the fishing line was pecked off, the vulture holding Ye Zhaoling suddenly flapped its wings and dived toward the magma below while holding Ye Zhaoling.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Zhaoling grabbed the long bird feathers on its butt. The vulture let go of its claws, but its tail feathers were pulled tightly. The pain caused it to rise into the sky and scream,
Very miserable.
"Quack, quack, quack!"
The vulture warned Ye Zhaoling in a low voice: "Let go of the hair on my butt."
The vulture that had pecked off the fishing line held half of the fishing line in its mouth, with a fishhook attached to the end.
It jumped up and down around one person and one bird, so happy.
However, it seemed to have forgotten that there was still a fishhook in its mouth. It opened its mouth and laughed loudly: "Quack, quack, quack! Pull hard! Pull hard! Little Heizi is going to be pulled naked from his buttocks!"
The fishhook plopped into the lava.
The vulture that originally landed on the heads of the three people immediately rose into the sky, and without hesitation for a second, it flapped its wings in a circle of afterimages.
The vulture named Xiao Heizi screamed sharply: "Don't force me to slap you, silly old man! Quack, quack, quack! Fishhook! Fishhook! The fishhook is about to fall into the lava! Quack, quack! Run! Run!
!Silly old man
Two! You big idiot! Quack, quack, quack! Run! That thing is coming out! Quack, quack, quack! Help, quack, quack! Don’t pull my butt hair! Let go, let go! I can’t fly fast!”
Ye Zhaoling held on to its fur tightly and refused to let go.
The silly guy was stunned in the air.
"Quack, quack! My fishhook is ahhhh! Wuwuwu..."
Xiao Heizi had already rushed out of the distance, but when he saw that the silly guy hadn't run away yet, he turned around and roared: "Run quickly! They are coming out!"
The silly old man rushed up with all his strength.
Ye Zhaoling grabbed the vulture's butt hair and saw a strange scene.
A big black fish with blood-red eyes all over its body jumped ten meters high. The fishhook was hung on its fin. It opened its big mouth and bit upwards, biting off the silly guy's butt hair in one bite.
It was so painful that it spiraled 360 degrees into the sky and screamed in agony.
Nine fish heads slowly emerged from the remaining nine magma tanks.
Ignoring the nine people hanging under the fishhook and only looking at the fish heads in the lava, Ye Zhaoling inexplicably remembered a famous British dark dish and looked up at the stars.
Ye Zhaoling felt happy for a while, but the good times did not last long.
The silly guy happened to fly over and suddenly bumped into Ye Zhaoling's belly. She screamed and let go of her hand. When she lowered her head, she saw the big black fish waiting for her to fall into the trap with its bloody mouth open.
The long skirt of the silk skirt stirred up into a small river in the air.
She took one last look at her father.
It fell like this for a few seconds, and an emerald-green light belt swept over it like a broken bamboo. She stopped thinking about closing her eyes and waiting for death, and grabbed it.
Then, the body became lighter.
The darkness above became brighter little by little.
Emerald green, fresh and soft.
Ye Zhaoling discovered that it was a tree.
The crown of a giant tree.
Pulling the green leaf, Ye Zhaoling followed it into the sky. The vultures' gloating laughter stopped abruptly the moment it appeared. Ye Zhaoling could still hear the sound of their wings flapping in the wind, but because of a certain reason, they
For some reason, I dare not make any more noise.
Is it because of it?
This tree grows downward from the dim sky, and its dense crown blocks everything ferocious below.
It actually... grows downward!
Standing on a thick branch, Ye Zhaoling looked up and saw its intertwined aerial roots, and beneath her feet was its boundless crown.
The leaf was still tightly held in her hand, with triangular oval leaves and long and thin drop-shaped leaf tips.
This is a Bodhi tree.
The two-meter-long leaves clung softly to her side, like a loyal shield.
Ye Zhaoling squatted down and saw a fishhook embedded in the trunk at his feet, with a transparent fishing line hanging down.
The sound of rustling leaves was constantly rubbing against each other, and Ye Zhaoling suddenly felt the discomfort of being watched. Soon, she heard a series of footsteps amidst the swaying sounds of the rustling leaves.
She turned back warily.
Several leaves were peeled away by one hand.
A woman covered in black veil walked out.
Ye Zhao was inspired by her gaze.
That gaze seemed like an unknown abyss, which made people feel lost.
However, the woman in black gauze raised her hand, and a stream of energy shot straight into Ye Zhaoling's heart!
Ye Zhaoling split it open and staggered back a few steps. A few green leaves stood in front of her. For some reason, it made her feel a little at ease.
The two looked at each other.
"Don't look at me for too long, little human being."
Her voice is like the sound of nature, aloof, seductive and depraved, but also contains compassion.
With just such an ordinary sentence, Ye Zhaoling lost all vigilance, and even the fear and uneasiness hidden in his heart.
Even the attack she had just received from the woman in black gauze was completely forgotten by her.
The woman in black gauze stretched out her hand to grab the two air roots, overlapped them, and tied a bow: "Bodhi, Bodhi, human beings are the most despicable and selfish creatures. Look, you saved her, but she wants to beat you.
, if she had a weapon in her hand just now, she would definitely split your body open without hesitation."
"Don't always make me sad by being so stupid, okay."
She jumped lightly and sat on the swing made of intertwined air roots.
The air roots carried her fluttering past Ye Zhaoling, the black gauze danced gracefully in the air, and her face was always blurred.
However, Ye Zhaoling received it clearly. When she passed by, she laughed contemptuously.
