Chapter 68: The Mysterious Event in the Burial Pit

  The burial pit was very large, extremely large. As far as the eye could see, a piece of green fluorescent light covered the rotting corpses everywhere. I held my chin with both hands and quietly watched several black shadows slowly move towards the center. Because my injury was too severe, I could only stay in place to rest.

  Looked around, except for the endless blackness, there were eerie glowing dots everywhere. Da Bao was nowhere to be seen... Had he left? Or was it that... He was right beside me, but I couldn't see him...

  There was an inexplicable sense of unease in my heart, but no fear. Perhaps the medicine that Xianxian had given me earlier was still effective, and I felt my body gradually recovering its vitality. So I picked up Flatty's backpack and started walking step by step along the edge of the ditch. To be honest, previously, I would never have thought that I could walk so calmly beside piles of corpses, at least not this soon.

  After walking for a while, I suddenly realized that I had unknowingly returned to the same passageway where I first entered. In the corner of the passageway, there were still several weeds growing, and their color was very dark and black, probably due to the lack of light or being underground. Everything else looked ordinary, but somehow it all seemed eerie!

  "Ah...... Ah......!!"

  Suddenly, several miserable cries came from the right side. I immediately turned my head to look over and unexpectedly saw an unbelievable scene! On that side, namely Shen Shou and others actually flew up! No, it should be said that they were suspended in mid-air, and they were twisted and distorted, some with their heads up and some with their heads down. Moreover, they all struggled without exception.

  What's going on?!

  I didn't care about much, I immediately ran over and jumped into the pit full of rotting corpses, running forward without looking back. "Crack" "Splat" Along with my rapid footsteps, all sorts of strange noises also rang out, perhaps it was the sound of bones shattering or maybe it was the sound of rotten flesh flying everywhere as I trampled on them. What's strange is that I didn't feel any fear in my heart, the only feeling was guilt. Everyone, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, actually I didn't want to step on you all, but you were lying there and I had no choice...

  I ran while staring at the people suspended in mid-air, watching their movements and postures, looking as if they were bound by something, but I didn't see anything else, how strange!

  Just as I was thinking, I accidentally fell down and my face was suddenly splashed with thick and smelly **. Fortunately, my mouth was tightly closed, otherwise I would have drunk a mouthful of it and felt sick to death!

  "Hiss...hiss..." Before I could even get up, a series of faint scratching sounds suddenly came from beside my ear. The sound was very small, and if you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be able to hear it at all. I immediately got up from the corpse, nervously looking around, but the light was normal and the corpse hadn't moved. What was that noise?

  "Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of gunfire was like rain, dense and continuous. I turned my head to see that Shen Shou and the others had already started firing wildly in all directions. They were truly shooting randomly, without any fixed target, and it was unclear what they were aiming at! It's getting stranger and stranger!

  I couldn't care about the slight friction sound, I wiped my face, although it was wiped, but the thick corpse smell couldn't be wiped away, I had no choice but to sniff the corpse smell all over my face and continue running towards Shen Shou and them.

  As they ran closer, their hearts grew more and more astonished. The evil bird and White Lao'er were nothing to be surprised about, but how could Godly Hands and Kong Kuiyan both be hung in mid-air?! What on earth was going on?!

  "What's going on?" I shouted loudly as they were just tens of meters away from us.

  The god-like man glanced at me and suddenly pointed his gun at me, shouting: "Don't come any closer!"

  "What?" I stopped in disbelief, but due to inertia, I still took a few more steps forward. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and I stared wide-eyed at the gun muzzle that was aimed at me. Oh no, I'm going to be shot! That's what I thought, but there was no pain as imagined. The muzzle was clearly aimed at me, and with God Hand's marksmanship, it should have been a guaranteed hit!

  "What the... Oh my god!" I had just taken a step forward when suddenly my foot felt tight, and I flew up to the right. Suddenly, the scene changed, and in front of me, a big tree appeared out of nowhere!!

  In the process of flying, I clearly saw the shape of this tree. The trunk was not straight, but twisted and curved, even the treetop was bent! On top, it was pitch black, and underneath, there were actually corpses hanging upside down, swaying back and forth due to the fierce resistance from Shen Shou and others.

  It's not just that, the vines are actually moving! The Divine Hands group was trapped by the vines, and when I looked up, my own feet were also wrapped in a vine as thick as a wrist.

  Was the godly hand not pointing a gun at me earlier, but rather aiming at the tree vines that I couldn't see at the time? Although I don't know what principle this tree is based on, it's indeed strange and can't be seen from afar!

  In just a few breaths, I was already hanging beside them, my left foot suspended in the air, my head somewhat congested, and I had no weapons on me, not even the dagger that had gone missing, so I could only pull out the flashlight for occasional use.

  Fortunately, I took out the flashlight in time. Just as I did, a dark and unknown object suddenly flew towards me from the front, moving very quickly, and instantly appeared right in front of my eyes. I swiftly swung the flashlight to strike it, and the vine was knocked aside. However, the next moment, the vine attacked again, and I swung once more. All I felt was a shock in my wrist, but surprisingly, the vine had wrapped itself around the flashlight.

  I pulled hard but it didn't come out, and suddenly I saw a pair of blood-red eyes! The tree vine suddenly revealed two sharp fangs, with a forked tongue sticking out between them!

  My god! Does the tree vine have eyes, fangs and a tongue?! No, damn it, this isn't a tree vine, it's clearly a snake! Are all these tree vines actually snakes?!

  Looking at the eyes in front of me, which were glowing red, I felt a chill run down my spine. The eyes seemed to be devoid of any emotion, but at the same time, they appeared to be harboring a deep-seated hatred. My mind was racing with thoughts of how to get rid of this snake. Suddenly, it moved, and its target was my hand! Just as its two white fangs were about to sink into my skin, I instinctively arched my body and kicked out at the snake's body with my right foot. In a split second, the snake's eyes snapped open, and it froze, its body pressed against my hand. Seizing the opportunity, I kicked again and shook my flashlight vigorously, managing to shake the snake off.

  The flashlight is something that I absolutely cannot lose, it's the only thing on me right now that can be used as a weapon. So just now my subconscious had already made a choice between my hand and the flashlight, fortunately my actions were quick, otherwise the consequences of being bitten by the snake would have been very severe!

  I no longer worry about why my body has become so good, since there is already another person living inside me, then one more strange place doesn't matter. In a few breaths, several black tree vines, no, several snakes came at me, but I smashed their heads with my flashlight!

  Just as I was looking ahead, another one came, and I immediately swung my flashlight to hit it. At the moment when I just hit it, a strong gust of wind suddenly came from the right side, and in the corner of my eye, I vaguely saw another black snake as thick as a wrist, too late! I'm going to be bitten!

  "With a loud bang, the snake that was just one fist away from my right ear suddenly exploded its head at the same time I smashed the snake in front of me. Turning my head, Shen Shou revealed a smile with deep meaning and then turned his face away, continuing to shoot other snakes..."

  They say that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but Shen's hands were always wearing those black tactical goggles, so I couldn't see through his thoughts or guess what he was thinking. All I could do was notice that faint smile at the corner of his mouth, which seemed really strange and gave me a feeling that something wasn't quite right...
