Chapter 38
Chapter 38
With a sound of '噗嗤', the thing wrapped around Ling Xiao's ankle was cut off.
Almost immediately, at the feet of Ling Xiao, who was originally empty, appeared a small piece of bluish-purple mucus similar to the winding stems of plants, but it was countless times thicker than ordinary rattan tendrils. The green juice flowed out from the fracture, twisted a few times like octopus tentacles, and then gradually loosened from Ling Xiao's feet.
Ling Xiao didn't care to look any further, he struggled to help Basil who was in a coma, limped and wanted to escape as soon as possible, the mucus from that thing seeped from the fabric of the clothes to the skin of Ling Xiao's footsteps, it seemed to be very toxic, Because Ling Xiao's right ankle, which was entangled just now, is now slightly itchy and numb.
To Ling Xiao's despair, it didn't take long to get rid of that weird vine, and soon there was the familiar and terrifying rustling sound around him, this time not only in one direction, but countless Unclear voices came from all directions around him.
The whole person was extremely embarrassed, Ling Xiao was covered with traces of dust, blood, and sweat intertwined. In the past, this was simply unbearable for Ling Xiao, who had a slight obsession with cleanliness, but now he has no time at all. to consider these.
Holding tightly the only sharp stone that could barely be regarded as a weapon in his hand, Ling Xiao found a slightly hidden broken wall and put Basil down. The cloth bag was stuffed into the arms of the unconscious Basil, and he let go of the invisible killers just before they caught up, turned around and made heavy footsteps, and continued to run forward.
Looking back while running, Ling Xiao saw that there seemed to be nothing unusual in the far corner, so he felt relieved.
The rustling sound of chasing behind was getting closer and closer. After turning a corner, Ling Xiao was hit hard on the back by a huge force, and the stone in his hand fell aside, which was beyond Duan Ling Xiao's reach. He fell to the ground after being whipped, countless cold and sticky objects entangled him, and soon there would be more entanglements after getting rid of one. Gradually, Ling Xiao's hands and feet were tightly bound and unable to move. Struggling again, as the mucus seeped into the skin, his whole body began to go numb, and the force entangled Ling Xiao's neck made his resistance weaker and weaker.
Body soaring in the air, Ling Xiao bit the tip of his tongue tightly, trying to stay awake.
And those things that entangled Ling Xiao's whole body in hiding, finally showed their true colors after they couldn't feel the power of resistance-blue-purple flexible branches or tentacles covered with mucus, the largest ones had Ling Xiao's arms and calves Thick and thin, the thinnest is only the width of a finger, and at this moment, densely packed around his body like snakes.
Suppressing the feeling of nausea and dizziness, Ling Xiao finally waited for the opportunity. He stared at the branches and vines that were no different from the one he cut off just now, moved his fingers slightly, and crushed them tightly. Holding several red magic flame talismans in the other hand, in an instant, red flames ignited from Ling Xiao's whole body with a bang, spreading and burning towards the vines wrapping him.
The demonized flame talisman will not cause harm to the user, but those disgusting slime-covered vines that attack Ling Xiao are not so lucky. As long as they are plants, they must be afraid of flames.After confirming this, Ling Xiao finally escaped from the nightmarish entanglement and fell heavily to the ground.Those blue-purple strange vines also collapsed as if they lost their strength at the same time, convulsing and twitching and being burned into charred brown in the flames, Ling Xiao even smelled the strong smell of burnt meat in the air.
The magic flame talisman is easy to extinguish, and the flame is still burning all the way to the depths of the town along the path of those branches and vines.
And after doing everything just now, almost exhausting Ling Xiao's strength, he barely turned over, supported his hands and crawled for a distance, held the sharp gravel that fell to the side again in his hand, and then forced the order Stand up on your own legs.
Human beings' will to survive in critical moments is always amazing. Under the double erosion of fear and venom, Ling Xiao's hands and feet were numb, but at this moment, even though he was trembling after walking a few steps, Ling Xiao But miraculously, relying on his own will, he gradually staggered back to the broken wall where Basil was hidden just now.
During this process, the only thing to be thankful for is probably due to the toxicity of mucus, when Ling Xiao fell down and got up, he couldn't feel the scratches and cuts on his body one after another. It hurts.
"Basil..., Basil..."
Even his tongue was numb, Ling Xiao anxiously called the silver-haired young man under him vaguely.But it was completely the same as the situation just now, Basil still closed his eyes tightly and did not respond.
At this time, the cloth bag stuffed in Basil's arms started to squirm, and the little dragon cub covered in black scales poked out his head, and looked at Ling Xiao with big round dark brown eyes: "Gu?"
The big movement just now failed to wake up the little guy, but now looking at Ling Xiao who is in a mess, the little guy seems to subconsciously want to lean out and crawl towards Ling Xiao.
"Good--" Ling Xiao's tense eyes softened a little, he comforted Yani, stuffed him back into the cloth bag, and carried him back on his shoulders with great effort.
With nothing to do, Ling Xiao could only try to lift Basil's heavy arm, let him lean on his shoulder again to help him leave as soon as possible.After falling for the third time, Ling Xiao, whose senses were paralyzed and his limbs and nerves were dulled, finally managed to help Basil, who was a head taller than him, and the two stumbled towards the outskirts of Spice Town.
It seems that because the powerful magic flame talismans played a role, those weird and dangerous plant vines did not appear again until Ling Xiao and the others were far away from the entire Spice Town.
Similar carnivorous plants on the earth, such as some Nepenthes and Saxifraga plants, have the habit of preying on insects, but the murderous plants that Ling Xiaobasil and Ling Xiaobasil have just encountered are so fierce that even people try to hunt them down It's completely insignificant in comparison.Not only that, those strange vines covered with poisonous slime and the things behind them seem to possess a certain amount of wisdom, not only able to hide their whereabouts, but even exude a fragrance that confuses and hypnotizes people's minds.
He staggered to the edge of the river valley he had crossed before, and in the dry, hot wind mixed with sand and dust, Ling Xiao finally fell down exhausted from all his strength.
The toxin had invaded his whole body, and even his brain began to feel dizzy. Ling Xiao half-closed his light green eyes, and lay down on the dry, hot and rough ground at noon.His face was covered with dried blood and sand, and his field of vision became a vast expanse of whiteness. At this moment, he couldn't even try to move his fingers.
He wanted to take out the medicine bottle in the cloth bag on the side of his waist, where there were many medicines Master Jiji asked him to bring, at least give Basil the antidote...
Ling Xiao held his breath, unwilling to just pass out, he seemed to feel that his fingers had touched the edge of the bag, and the next moment, he was pushed away by a force.
"Hahaha, I'm finally out—!"
It seemed to have been suppressed for countless years, and the hearty laughter echoed in Ling Xiao's ears from far and near. he……
"I will not save you."
At this time, the voice approached Ling Xiao's ear sinisterly again, and the tone seemed to contain the resentment and malice that had been buried for thousands of years: "Let that orc be immersed in a nightmare and cannot extricate himself, and you—"
"You go to die too!"
It doesn't matter whether Ling Xiao, who has fallen into a coma, can hear it or not, the voice murmured to himself, and then, the worn-out black cloak fluttered, and the young man with black hair and black eyes spread his hands, going crazy under this vast and free sky Like turning in circles.
He is free at last.
For countless years in the past, he was trapped in the small spice town and couldn't go anywhere. Even though the whole town was decayed, every time he tried to leave, no matter in the air or on the ground, there was always an invisible barrier. He will mercilessly bounce him back to the desolate town where the scenery is boring and unchanging.
Enough is enough.
Now, he can finally do whatever he wants, wherever he wants to go!
Thousands of years ago, the young man who had the name Fajktra, but now his real name is Wang Lynch, laughed wildly, screamed and danced for a while before finally remembering it again, his dark eyes did not hide the contempt in it With viciousness, he became expressionless and stared at Ling Xiao and Basil at his feet.
Even in a coma, the hands of the two are still tightly held together.
It's really an eyesore.
Stepping on Ling Xiao's slender phalanx holding Basil's palm, and slowly and forcefully crushing it, the blood-stained finger was once again bruised and bloody.
The eyes that were completely pitch black as if they could no longer penetrate a ray of light, after seeing this scene, burst out with a distorted joy.
As the blood seeped into the dry gravel soil, the young man who seemed bored kicked the palms of the two people away.He squatted down, with a malicious smile in the corner of his pale mouth under the hood of the cloak, turned Ling Xiao's lying body around, frivolously pinched Ling Xiao's delicate chin, and stared at it for a while.Then the fingers slowly moved down, pinched his defenseless neck and slowly tightened——
"Even if you leave it alone like this, you will die silently sooner or later..."
A person muttered to himself, he no longer saw the simplicity and innocence that he had pretended to be fond of back then, and the ordinary-looking Wang Lynch's thick eyebrows and big eyes were full of cruelty at this moment.He kept relaxing slightly, and then squeezed Ling Xiao's neck even more tightly to exert his strength, and continued to say with endless joy: "But I don't know why, I seem to be happier seeing you die in pain—— "
Wang Linqi, who was immersed in some kind of wonderful excitement, did not notice the little dragon cub Adonis slowly wriggling out of the bag beside Ling Xiao.
Staring at the round dark brown eyes, apart from his biological mother Anas, the little guy who regards Ling Xiao as his second mother, when he sees someone who is bullying the person he likes, why does Ling Xiao not let him The exhortation rushed over almost like an instinctive reaction, and grabbed the hateful hand that was pinching Ling Xiao's neck with a groan——
"Guji—!"
