Restricted area grave keeper

Chapter 241
"call--"

A gust of wind blew by, and a large number of dead branches and leaves drifted far away with the wind, revealing a black stone tablet buried by branches and leaves.

Behind the stele is a barren gravel path, with no grass growing on both sides of the road, only dry and cracked land, with no end in sight at a glance, and no idea where it connects.

The blood-colored characters on the stele seem to remain unchanged, like a wise man who has been silent for thousands of years. Although it does not say a word, it always tells the visitors without reservation that behind the path is a dark forest that few people are willing to set foot on. ——

D-level restricted area, dark forest.

The so-called restricted area is the forbidden area for living people.

The towering trees cover the sky and the sun, and the huge canopy is like a big umbrella. The dense black leaves are closely intertwined, like scales arranged in a staggered manner, vaguely pieced together into the shape of a painful human face.

The human face and eyes are empty, just staring at the sky dully like this, the painful emotions seem to overflow, it makes people feel hairy after looking at it for a long time, as if they are assimilated by the pain.

There are not a few such human-face crown trees in the dark forest. They are everywhere, and together with many dark stumps with countless branches, they together form the main body of the entire dark forest.

Different from the luxuriant human face crown tree, although this kind of pitch-black tree stump is thick and strong, the spreading branches are bare, without a single leaf, and a large number of black branches spread around the ground, connecting and interlacing with each other, as if weaving a A huge net covered the entire forest and could be seen everywhere.

If Zhang Tao saw these branches on the ground, he might find that they were similar to the murderous branch on the tree at the entrance of the gathering place.

And this kind of branch comes from Qiu Yishu, one of the most common taboo plants in the dark forest.

In addition to the human-face crown tree and Qiuyi tree, the dark forest is also filled with a large number of other plants with strange shapes. They either grow on the ground, or hide in the ground, or climb on rocky trunks, or lie on the flowing magma. , can survive almost anywhere.

Either bewitching or weird, there are no birds or beasts, only countless strange plants that jointly build a unique ecological environment in the dark forest. They are constantly fighting for nutrients, and there is a set of survival rules among plants.

It is worth mentioning that most of the things in the dark forest seem to be black: black soil, black stones, black river water, black plants...even black magma.

Black is the thickest main color in the dark forest. Although the sun hangs high, it seems that the sun is out of sight all year round. Even the sun cannot give them new colors. It is dark and deep, which is daunting.

However, deep in the forest, there is such a blood-colored dandelion, which is different from the pitch-blackness of other plants, and has its own unique color.

It is worth mentioning that there are no other plants within a radius of [-] meters around it, not even half of a branch of the Kazuki tree. It lives in the same area.

The blood-colored dandelion swayed alone in the wind like a swaying blood-colored lamp, becoming a unique color in the dark forest, beautiful and dangerous.

Its rhizome is deeply rooted in the soil, twists and turns around the ground, and finally connects to a coffin buried deep in the soil.

A man lay in a dark coffin.

He is dressed in red and has red hair. He is tall and thin, with delicate facial features. He is somewhat feminine. Even with his eyes closed, he gives people a strange and evil feeling.

The man seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep for a long time. The rhizome of the dandelion penetrated the coffin and wrapped around his left arm. It opened and closed with the man's breathing, like a blood vessel separated from the man's body. A strange totem is formed on it.

As Bai Mo guessed, in order to recover as soon as possible, most of Wuyu's spirit fell into a deep sleep, and only a small part was attached to the Wuyu Dandelion, so as to observe the changes in the outside world and feed back to the main body in time.

"traitor……"

Suddenly, the man let out an unconscious murmur, his expression changed, and there seemed to be mixed emotions in his tone.

The sound was very soft, along the rhizome, it disappeared in the wind in an instant.

On the ground, the blood-colored dandelions suddenly swayed, and a large number of flying flowers scattered in all directions, and it was unknown where they were going.

And for some reason, many plants in the dark forest suddenly tightened their bodies inexplicably, as if they were afraid of something.

……

In the camp, all the burning candles and torches were extinguished, and it was already plunged into a pitch-black darkness.

The surroundings were silent, even the heavy heartbeat disappeared, and a deadly atmosphere spread silently.

After an unknown amount of time, two small red dots suddenly appeared in the darkness.

Although it was only fleeting, one could still vaguely see a man in red with red hair. He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were scarlet, and the red light flashed away from his eyes. He was indifferent and ruthless, making people daunting— —

After a long wait of about 10 minutes, the false body made of flesh and blood, having no desire to use dozens of people, finally woke up.

In an instant, a strong sense of cold killing intent swept across the entire camp, and spread along the passage until it touched the door of the tunnel exit.

The undisguised coercion seemed to make the entire passage tremble slightly, but after looking around, there was nothing in the perception.

This is obviously different from the result Wuyu expected, he muttered to himself, his voice was as cold as a knife: "No one...how is it possible?"

This voice was neither loud nor small, just enough to reverberate in the camp, but there was a special power hidden in it, which could easily seduce people's desires.

Once someone is hiding here, upon hearing this voice, they will be aroused with a strong desire to share, so that they can't wait to jump out and fall into his sight——

But no, not a single one.

Including that hateful Bai Mo, no one showed up. It seemed that everyone in the entire camp had died.

Wuyu frowned.

This is very different from what he expected. After all, monks can't escape the temple if they run away. Logically speaking, even if everyone runs away, at least the "crop" parasitized by the boundless grass seed should not be able to escape here. ...

However, he didn't even feel the woman's breath.

Wuyu is very clear that his successful awakening is enough to explain certain problems, which just confirms his previous conjecture.

This shows that everything may be as he guessed, Bai Mo is very likely to be in a bad state now, otherwise, with the other party's means, his false body will definitely not be able to wake up, and maybe Bai Mo will be treated as a puppet instead.

This is the best time to get rid of that guy, but it may also be a conspiracy by the other party to lure people into the trap, so on balance, he will choose to use a fake body to test.

But no matter what the truth is, finding Bai Mo as soon as possible is a top priority.

However, what surprised him was that there was no aura of that guy in the tunnel...

Wuyu thought for a moment, but with a snap of his fingers, all the torches in the camp were inexplicably lit, and the flames dispelled the darkness and illuminated the surroundings again.

His blood-colored eyes turned around, and his eyes quickly locked on a pile of dry plants. Most of them were dry leaves, obviously laid on something, with a slight bulge underneath, as if something was hidden.

Wuyu didn't need to get close at all, he just raised his hand lightly, and those withered plants seemed to have their own thoughts, and were soon driven by him, obediently leaving the place.

Looking at the things buried under the branches and leaves, Wuyu frowned slightly.

I saw that under these branches and leaves was a corpse that had just died.

Her whole body is connected to the branches, except for a human-shaped head, with a black mask on her face. At this moment, her eyes are closed tightly, and there is a huge wound on her neck, which seems to be cut by a sharp weapon. Green blood gushes out from the blood vessels, flowing Gotta be all over the place.

"died?"

This scene seemed to be beyond Wuyu's expectations, his figure disappeared instantly, and then appeared next to the corpse, squatting down, sizing up the corpse——

He remembered this woman's name, Wen Ziya. This was the 'crop' he had planned to cultivate carefully. The name was worth remembering. If it wasn't for the appearance of Bai Mo, he would not have chosen to give up.

As Bai Mo guessed, for the sake of safety, Wuyu did not connect too much consciousness with the false body, so the false body only retained some necessary memories, and more action power was given by the killing intent. After all, this is the only way. Only when the body is in danger will it not implicate the main body.

And Wen Ziya's name wine happened to be in the necessary memory.

Wu Yu remembered very clearly that he had clearly taken away the killing intent of the other party and transferred it into his own body, so that the guy would not be able to hinder him at that time, and at the same time he would not choose to commit suicide, so as not to waste such a good life in vain. seedlings.

And because he had absorbed the killing intent, he was eager to kill at this moment, wanting to kill all the living things in the camp as soon as he opened his eyes.

However, who knew that after 'waking up', there was no one in the huge underground passage, and the most hateful Bai Mo was completely gone, almost causing internal injuries to Wuyu's fake body.

But logically speaking, Wen Ziya, who lost her killing intent, would not be able to commit suicide, unless her willpower was terribly strong, or... Bai Mo killed her.

Wuyu's blood-colored eyes moved.

But this seems unreasonable, because according to his previous observation, Wen Ziya and Bai Mo seem to have reached some kind of cooperative relationship, how could they suddenly kill each other?

He thought for a moment, and seemed to have some understanding, suddenly sneered, and said to the empty camp in front of him: "Hide your head and show your tail, it seems that you have really become a lost dog, don't you even have the courage to face me?"

No one responded.

Hidden in this sentence is a power that can ignite anger and desire, but it is still not enough to catch the guy hiding in the dark.

But Wuyu was not in a hurry. Before constructing the fake body, he had secretly surrounded the entire tunnel with a few flying flowers, and he would be notified when someone entered or exited. However, he had not received any feedback until now, which meant that Bai Mo should not have left the tunnel. right.

He was very confident that even if that guy used the power of "Wu" to escape secretly, he would not be able to escape Fei Hua's perception, so Bai Mo definitely hadn't left yet.

Therefore, there are only two possibilities for such a situation, either that guy is hiding very deeply, or...he is already dead——

Only the dead can escape the domination of desire, and thus avoid his perception.

But how is that possible...

While thinking about it, Wuyu's terrifying perception ravaged the entire camp again, the aura was extremely terrifying, but he still found nothing, except for Wen Ziya's body, he couldn't see anything else.

He wasn't annoyed either, he just let out a slight sneer, and then walked slowly into the passage.

With his departure, all the light in the camp disappeared in an instant, the torch was extinguished, and the surroundings fell into dead darkness again.

The footsteps gradually faded away until they could not be heard at all.

The air was silent.

Not long after, there seemed to be an undetectable sound of relief in the camp.

And at this moment, a mutation arose.

The bright flame suddenly lit up, and while the candle was flickering, a red-haired figure in red was still standing there, as if he had never been anywhere.

His eyes were projected on an open space, his expression was playful, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth——

The sound of relief just now came from the ground of this place.

"A mouse is a mouse, and it was caught by the nest."

A cold voice sounded from his mouth, and in an instant, the entire camp shook suddenly, and many thick vines emerged from the ground, like huge tentacles, and plowed the entire ground in a short time.

The ground was cracked and dust was flying. Under the influence of countless vines, the whole ground seemed to be reclaimed. However, what puzzled Wuyu was that he still found nothing.

——There are no hidden people underground.

These vines are alive, and he can easily manipulate these mindless things by stirring up his desire. The efficiency is extremely high, and it is difficult for the other party to escape the search.

But speaking of it, these vines seem to be derivative plants grown from the boundless grass, and they seem to have their own independent consciousness now, and are not dominated by Wen Ziya.

From this point of view, the latter may really be dead...

Unwilling and reluctant, he plowed the ground several times again, but there was still no harvest, and no trace of white ink was found.

"Has this guy evaporated from the world?"

The strong killing intent in his heart made Wu Yu extremely eager to find Bai Mo, he no longer hesitated, and quickly turned around and entered the passage.

However, it didn't take long before his figure appeared in the camp again. After looking around, he still had no clue, so he completely stopped thinking.

The passage was also pitch black. Wuyu held a torch and walked quickly through the tunnel. His eyes first fell on the strange stones embedded in the left and right walls, and then he looked at the red scales on the ground. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

... A long time has passed, and he can't even recognize what these two things are.

Suddenly, he stopped and stared blankly ahead.

Not far ahead lay four corpses in black robes.

And one of them was very similar to the figure of Bai Mo in his impression.

A strange look suddenly appeared on his face. This time, he didn't manipulate other things to identify the corpse, but stepped forward and lifted the cloak himself.

Under the cloak is a black mask.

Wuyu carefully lifted the mask, ready to strike at any time.

No surprises, the face under the mask was none other than Bai Mo, whom he had "heard and thought about" for a long time.

His eyes were closed tightly, and he was completely breathless. It was obvious that he had died not long ago.

"died?"

Wuyu didn't know how to describe his mood for a moment.
