Chapter Thirty-Six: Bloody Head

  Looking at the shattered stones on the ground, I was sweating coldly, dripping down continuously. Just as I thought it wouldn't last a second, a flash of chilliness appeared, rushing straight towards my chest! I hastily raised my hand to throw this knife into the abyss. But just then, I felt a tightness around my wrist, and the hilt of this knife was like a snake, coiling itself around my wrist!

  Before I could react, everything in front of me went blurry. The next moment, my chest was in agony! I let out a loud "ahh" and fell to the ground! All I felt was my whole body convulsing, my chest tight and short of breath, with blood foam gurgling from the corner of my mouth. Looking at the knife in my chest, I couldn't help but feel infinite sorrow in my heart. Who would have thought that this year, before I even turned 23, I'd become a ghost? But what's worse is dying under my own family's blade - how can I put this into words? If I really do end up in the underworld and meet those ancestors of mine, how am I supposed to explain myself? Should I say I was killed by my own family without even putting up a fight? Those old men would be furious when they hear that! They'd probably slap me back to life with a big smack on the face!

  As a person is dying, they may be like me, with their mind uncontrollably wandering. It feels like my whole body is getting colder and colder, nothing but cold. My body has already gone numb, to the point where I don't even feel any pain anymore. Just as I was about to lose consciousness, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind: this knife, it couldn't be drinking my blood, could it?

  My whole body was weak and cold, all I wanted to do was sleep well and wake up to find that everything was just a dream. I don't know how long it took. When I opened my eyes again, the surroundings were a vast expanse of white! Where is this place? I sat up with a start. Looking around, it was desolate everywhere, except for white, there was nothing! In my heart, I secretly calculated, could this be the legendary underworld? Is this what it looks like?

  Just then, the surroundings suddenly started to drift with waves of fog! I took a step back abruptly, but felt that my foot had stepped on something. Hurriedly lowering my head to take a look, it was unexpectedly a knife, not from my house! My heart gave a sudden jolt, geez, could it be that **has chased me down to the ground?! Just thinking of kicking it flying with one foot, I heard a burst of eerie laughter, coming from afar and getting closer in the fog!

  I was shocked in my heart, and without thinking much, I hastily picked up the treasure knife on the ground, pointed it at the depths of the fog, and shouted: "Who is it? Get out here!" As soon as the words fell, a figure appeared vaguely in the fog. Before long, a very pretty woman's face emerged from the surface of the fog!

  Looking at the beautiful face in front of me, I greatly relaxed my vigilance. Who would have thought that heaven brought me a good deal after all? Even though I'm already a dead man, it still sent a beauty to accompany me, and it's really taking advantage of someone else's beauty!

  I gave a faint smile, put down the knife in my hand, beckoned to her and said: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm also new here. Since there's no one around, why don't we become partners and take care of each other? What do you think, miss?" Haha...

  After saying this, I feel like I'm shameless. There's no way around it, who let me spend all these years in the mountains with two old men? As the saying goes, after three years of being a soldier, even a mother pig can be as beautiful as Diao Chan! I've been stuck on this mountain for eight years, and if there was a beauty in front of me, or even a pumpkin, my eyes would still light up!

  I thought this little beauty would be scared away by me, but unexpectedly she listened to me finish and actually laughed "Hehehe": "You want to be with me? You like me?" I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, oh my, just after living in isolation from the world for a few years, the outside world has become so crazy! Nowadays girls are too open-minded!

  Without saying another word, the little chicken pecked at the rice like crazy, nodding its head vigorously, and shouted with eyes shining blue: "Of course I like it, you're so beautiful and charming, which man wouldn't like it?" As soon as the words were spoken, a silvery laughter floated in my ears again, and then I saw this woman swaying out, taking three steps at a time!

  As I looked at the woman who appeared before my eyes, I was so shocked that my mouth was wide open and my brain was completely blank! And then I saw this girl in front of me, she was actually wearing nothing at all, not a single thread!

  My grandma, hurriedly covered her nose with her hand, fortunately didn't bleed from the nose and lose face! Just as I was secretly rejoicing, I saw that this woman had already walked out of the fog and appeared in front of me. I stole a glance at her lower body from the corner of my eye. As soon as I took a look, I let out a loud scream and suddenly retreated several steps!

  This thing is a freak! Only her upper body was clearly that of a beautiful woman, but this lower body, it's actually a long green snake tail!

  "Monster!!" I shouted loudly and sat up, looking around tensely. To my surprise, I was still at the edge of this broken valley. As I looked at the familiar scene around me, beads of cold sweat broke out on my face. My mind couldn't help but wonder what the hell just happened? Was it just my illusion? Did I fall asleep and have a nightmare?

  As I thought of this, I hastily examined my body. Just now, a knife had clearly stabbed into my chest, but now when I looked, I was perfectly fine, not even a scratch on my skin! After repeatedly examining myself several times, my heart grew colder and colder, to the point where I began to doubt whether I was awake or asleep at this moment.

  They say that if you don't know whether you're awake or asleep, pinch your thigh hard. If it hurts, then you're awake; if not, then you're asleep! Thinking of this, I gritted my teeth and gave myself a big slap on the face.

  Damn, it really hurts! I wasn't asleep, I was awake! So that must have been my hallucination just now! Covering my face with my hand, I hastily searched around me and found it on the left side of my hand. That thing was lying quietly and straight on the ground!

  As I looked at the no longer twisted and crawling thing, I became even more afraid in my heart. Was it playing tricks on me? I tentatively touched it with my hand, and apart from feeling icy cold, there was nothing unusual about it. In my heart, I secretly thought that it was good, probably because I had been too tired earlier, which led to a temporary shock, and that's why I had such a strange dream. Alas, this is no wonder, since I entered this underground world, I completely lost the concept of time, and didn't know how long it has been, just busy rushing around in exhaustion. Until now, I haven't even had a sip of water, let alone eaten anything!

  My heart was racing with a bad premonition, when I suddenly heard the sound of rustling and scurrying coming from behind me. I quickly turned my head around, using the light on my helmet to take a closer look. What I saw made me jump in fright! In the depths of the dark cave, there were seven or eight large and small black shadows jumping and running towards me. When they came into the range of the light, I finally got a clear look at them - it was those skinless human heads from before!

  I grabbed the backpack on the ground, turned my head and was about to run, but I quickly stopped myself. Behind me was a cliff! Oh no, there's no way out! What can I do? As I spoke, those few ferocious blood-red heads had already run in front of me, one particularly large one even opened its big mouth and bit towards me!

  It's come to this, I've got no choice but to fight it out! I swung my backpack with all my might and slammed it at the thing. It felt like I was feeding it right into its mouth. And then, in an instant, I heard a loud ripping sound. When I looked again, my denim backpack had been bitten through with a huge hole!

  What sharp teeth are these? No longer caring about the things falling out of the bag, with one kick, he sent that large blood-red head flying, and with a burst of energy, he fiercely smashed everything in the bag over! Until all the things were scattered clean, I myself began to feel dizzy. Looking at these few blood-red guys on the ground, I looked back at the broken valley behind me, and said to myself: You bastards, I'm going to fight it out with you!

  Before I could even react, they let out a strange cry and charged at me! I focused my mind and brought out the skills of my hidden crossbow. Taking aim at one of the Bloodmen's heads, I quickly closed in on it and grabbed its eyes with one hand! My hand felt a wet slipperiness, which was actually a sticky liquid like fresh blood! Not having time to think about it, I swung it around and slammed it into another person's head. All I heard was a loud "slap" sound, as the two Bloodmen's bodies went limp, with blood splattering everywhere!

  I casually grabbed another one, and it was a left and right attack. I just spun these two blood-sucking ticks around and had a fierce fight. All I felt was that the ticks in my hand were all crushed to pieces, and only then did I throw them away. The next moment, I suddenly felt a pain on my calf, and surprisingly, there was a small tick that took advantage of my carelessness and bit off a piece of my skin!

  This is a painful concentration! A furious roar, lifted his foot and crushed it. The corner of my eye flashed, and I found that Bao Dao Bu Wen was at my feet. It's really busy making mistakes, flustered and reckless! Hurriedly picked up the Bu Wen on the ground, just to see the remaining two human heads rushing towards my chest! Wanting to dodge, but it's too late!

  At this moment, the slow-motion scene from back then appeared in my mind again. Looking at the two ferocious heads floating in front of me like evil spirits, I had a strong urge to kill! Grandma's, today it's either you die or I live!

  I flipped over backwards and just as my body was rotating in mid-air, I quickly reached out with my left hand to grab the rock wall, while my right hand swiftly slashed across the top of my head! As I looked at those two heads, they were rushing too fast and couldn't pull back in time. All I heard was a "pfft" sound, followed by a sky full of blood lines, drifting down gently. Then I saw that the two of them had fallen straight into the bottomless canyon! Watching them twist and scream as they split into two halves in mid-air, I felt a long-held breath of resentment finally released. Ever since entering this eerie cave, it's been one close call after another, nine deaths and one life!

  I exerted myself and sprang up with all my might, and in one bound I was on the top. But before I could steady myself, I heard a loud rustling noise behind me, which grew louder and louder!

  What the heck is this! I cursed my bad luck in my heart and quickly leaned over to take a closer look. On this cliff, I saw that many weeds and short trees had grown out, including some species that I had never seen before. As I was observing, the rustling sound got closer and closer. Suddenly, my headlamp shook, and I saw about 50-60 meters away from me, a snow-white giant snake climbing up the rock!
