Many people would panic and struggle wildly when they were suddenly thrown into the water. If it was the former Yan Mo, maybe he would do the same, but anyway, he has also lived in this different world for more than a year, and encountered many dangers, big and small. Coupled with the deliberate training of the soldiers, Yan Mo's first reaction after entering the water was to hold his breath, then he called out the scalpel, and stabbed the waist and ribs of the humanoid object with his backhand.
He used the same trick to almost stab Yuan Zhan to death. That time, the guide added 20 scum points to him in the name of accidental injury. Later, he used the laboratory to rescue the guy, and he was subtracted another 100 points. It's a pity that the two cannot be hedged, and he still suffered a small punishment.
But this time, even though he intentionally shot to hurt someone, it was a counterattack when he was attacked. I believe that even if he stabbed the opponent to death, the guide would not punish him.
But as soon as the knife entered the opponent's body, he immediately felt something was wrong.
With the large number of living or dead people he has cut, without looking or touching, he knows that what he stabs with the knife is definitely not a creature of flesh and blood.
But... the scalpel disappeared, and Yan Mo's fingers touched the part he stabbed. The other party seemed to be sure that he couldn't hurt himself, and he didn't even dodge to dodge, so he felt right.
The feel and the arc must be the ribs. Because of his posture, he couldn't count the opponent's ribs with his backhand, but when he touched down with his hand, he found something was wrong. He didn't touch the hip bone.
What is this
He was caught by a skeleton
No matter what it was, Yan Mo called out the scalpel again and stabbed at the opponent's spine with all his might.
But this time, the other party seemed to have discovered the danger. He grabbed the bone of his neck and threw his body back, which not only made his stab miss, but also put him in an extremely dangerous situation.
Yan Mo couldn't breathe. He can swim, and after being promoted to the third level of the blood warrior, he can hold his breath for a longer time than before, but the movement itself in the water is very energy-consuming. If the other party pinches his neck so hard, even if he is calm enough, he can't help it. Struggling.
While raising his hand and attacking the opponent's arm holding his neck with a scalpel, he shot a large number of wooden stabs behind him.
But those wooden spikes have no threat at all to the bone that grabbed him, they can only waste his oxygen and energy, but the other party seems to be very concerned about the scalpel in his hand. When he attacked, the bone in the other hand grabbed his wrist.
Wrist pain! Yan Mo felt that his bones were about to be crushed, so he had to put away the scalpel to prevent it from falling out of his hand.
"Pfft, gurgling." Yan Mo couldn't help opening his mouth after all, and while exhaling waste gas, he also held his breath until his lungs hurt, and he needed fresh air.
Grabbing his bones seemed to know his weakness, and pressed his neck to swim deeper into the water.
"Gudu." Yan Mo took his first sip of water. At this time, he still has time to think, if his body is really immortal as he judged, then when he suffocates in the water, will he just enter a state of suspended animation? Or did he have to endure the pain of suffocation all the time
He hates being buried alive, and also hates being submerged in water. Suffocation is one of the most painful ways to die in the world. Next time he has a chance, he would like to ask the guide if there is any reward that can make him never suffer from suffocation again.
Yuan Zhan jumped into the water, obviously the time difference was not too big, it was only the effort of his front and rear feet, but he couldn't find Mo.
It's not that the opponent's speed is fast, perhaps this is one of the reasons, but the main reason is that there are countless forks under the current, like a beehive.
Yuan Zhan was insanely anxious, but the more anxious he became, the calmer he became. He couldn't just choose a fork in the road to try his luck. He wanted to find the real way for Mo to be taken away. He couldn't get in touch with Mo, but he could feel their child, as long as the other party was willing to call him.
At the moment when Yan Mo couldn't bear it, he loosened his grip on the Fruit of Witch Luck.
But the Fruit of Witch Luck, who would immediately throw himself out of his body when encountering "good things", didn't respond this time.
attack it! Attack the guy who caught me!
Yan Mo had to order the other party.
But at this moment, Wu Luck Zhiguo threw out three words in disgust: "It's not delicious..."
If it's not good, you eat it for me too!
"No... vitality."
Can't you eat without life force
"Eat...it's useless." The Fruit of Witch Luck seemed unwilling to do white work at all.
Yan Mo was almost mad at it.
Kill it, and I'll give you five prey!
"I want your... flesh and blood."
Your mother! How dare you take advantage of the fire to rob. it is good!
"a lot of… "
Up to two taels! If you continue to bargain, I will put myself in a state of suspended animation, and will definitely seal you up so that you will never come out!
The Fruit of Witch Luck jumped out of his body, and this time it attacked directly from his back.
The water fluctuated violently, and Yan Mo felt that the wrist holding him was separated from the main body, and his body sank downward. But the hand that gripped his neck remained tight until the fruit of witch luck sucked it into powder.
The Fruit of Witch Luck was not satisfied after destroying the skeleton, and swayed in the water, refusing to return to Yan Mo's body.
Yan Mo can no longer tell where is up and where is down. This kind of pitch-black place can easily make people lose their sense of direction. The fruit of witch luck has not returned to his body, and he has not urged him. He feels that there is still hope in the dark. Unseen danger.
Strange, why hasn't he passed out due to suffocation? Yan Mo relaxes his body, trying to float up with the buoyancy of the water, while distracted thinking.
"Dad, down below... the bones..."
Yan Mo really wanted to go down, it was already here, it would be a pity to give up, but he wanted to surface first to catch his breath.
"Dad, be careful!"
Dozens of black shadows quickly attacked Yan Mo.
Yan Mo couldn't see it, and he couldn't know it through the change of water flow.
But Wu Luck Zhiguo felt that those black shadows were useless inanimate bodies to him, so he had no intention of attacking at all, allowing those black shadows to attack Yan Mo.
Yan Mo was reminded by his son and showed his scalpel, but he was surrounded by those skeletal bodies, and they rushed forward.
Fruits of witch luck, attack them!
"Your... flesh and blood."
Hold!
"One... two taels."
How could he have thought that this fruit was a fool? This guy is simply darker than him. He hasn't grown up to be like this yet. When he grows up, he doesn't know how bad he will be!
Yan Mo didn't want to do what it wanted, he found that although those skeletons were attacking him, no one would pounce on him to bite him or suck his flesh and blood, they seemed to just want to catch him, drown him, and then take him to a certain place a place
Yan Mo stopped attacking, he planned to use golden needles to put himself into suspended animation. He was holding his breath in pain, and he drank several sips of water just now. Of course, he would not forget to force that arrogant, black-bellied and greedy fruit of witch luck into his body. If he "died", he wanted this guy to be buried with him!
The Fruit of Witch Luck feels very threatened. This person has suppressed it for so long before it finally loosened. It cannot let this person continue to seal it.
"Can... breathe."
Ok
"Dad, it says trees can breathe in water."
Yan Mo's body trembled, by the way, his current body is no longer an ordinary human body, he has fused with the Resurrection Tree, and most plants can breathe in water and soil! Some plants that live at the bottom of the water or in the water, even if the whole plant is soaked in water, there is no problem.
No wonder he hasn't fallen into a coma due to suffocation, but what can he do to get enough oxygen and drink water all the time? Then will he die first
"In... out..."
What's the meaning? Translate, son.
"Dad, it says suck in, expel."
While Yan Mo was talking with Wu Yunzhi, he was caught by the skeletons again.
But this time he didn't struggle, he relaxed his body, as if he was in a coma, and let the other party lead him to swim underwater.
On the way, he kept experimenting with the new skill of how to inhale water, leave enough oxygen, and expel the water.
He drank water first, which seemed to be able to absorb a certain amount of oxygen, and he was able to stay awake until now is evidence, but how to get rid of the water he drank in his stomach
Yan Mo is very experimental, he urinates directly in the water. As for whether there was his own urine in the water he drank later, he chose to ignore it.
But this is not a good way, because he can't urinate while drinking water, and the water fills up his stomach before entering the bladder.
"Dad, what instinct does it say?"
instinct? Yes, breathing in water and soil should be the instinct of plants, maybe he shouldn't think too much, but relax his body and let it happen naturally.
But it is not easy to relax the body. When people are conscious, it is difficult not to control their body.
For that natural situation to happen, human instincts must be subdued to plant instincts.
Yan Mo moved a few times, and before the bones noticed, he stabbed several acupuncture points on himself.
This time, he really couldn't move. Not only could he not move, he even had difficulty opening his mouth. It can be said that he is basically the same as a patient in a coma except that he is conscious now.
At the same time, he put himself into a state of self-hypnosis, deepening his subconscious repeatedly: I am a plant, a plant that can breathe in water, I am a fusion of plant and human, I have the characteristics of both, I am vegetable...
Yan Mo smiled when he read the word vegetative. Slowly, he closed his eyes and really entered the state of vegetative.
Yuan Zhan felt that he seemed to hear his son's call at a certain moment, and he could feel that the other party seemed to be very scared.
And he had felt this emotion before, when Mo threatened to kill their child!
What about this time? Is Mo going to kill their baby again? Why
Yuan Zhan's body sank to the bottom of the water, and when it touched the soil, he disappeared.
I don't know how long I have been swimming in the water, when the effect of the lily needle to seal the acupoints disappeared, and when Yan Mo could breathe naturally and relax in the water, with a "crash", those skeletons brought him to the surface of the water.
As soon as he came out of the water, his body lost buoyancy and felt heavy. Yan Mo opened his eyes slightly, and before he could figure out how to deal with the current situation, he was thrown to the shore by those skeletons.
"boom!"
Yan Mo lay on the ground and waited for a while. He didn't feel those skeletal bodies landing on the shore, and there was no other movement around him, so he slowly propped up his upper body.
It was as dark as the water, and there was no light source at all. He could hear the sound of the water gently lapping on the shore, but otherwise there was silence.
Instead of lying on his stomach, he slowly took out a torch and a torch from his pocket, and carefully blew the torch up to the head of the torch. He was worried about the lack of oxygen here at first, but seeing the burning speed of the torch, here There should be enough oxygen, and he didn't have any difficulty breathing, but there was a weird smell of water.
The torch was lit smoothly, Yan Mo put away the torch, and after his eyes got used to the light of the torch, he raised the torch and looked forward.
A pair of black eyes were facing him!
scare! Yan Mo shook his hand and almost threw the torch out.
Of course he was not afraid of skeletons, but this kind of sudden fright would shock even the most daring person.
Directly across from where he sat, a skeleton leaned against the cave wall.
This is the remains of a strange creature whose upper body resembles a human being, but whose lower body has only one extended spine.
Maybe it wasn't the spine, Yan Mo touched the bone at the end extending to his feet, it was more like the tailbone of some kind of dinosaur
Was it this kind of thing that grabbed him in the water just now
"Is this the bone?" Yan Mo asked the Fruit of Witch Luck.
"in… "
"Still inside?" Yan Mo turned the torch and looked around.
This time he was mentally prepared, and when he saw the same three skeletons again, he was just on guard, not as frightened as before.
The four skeletons did not move, and he waved the torch at them specially. After confirming that the opponent would not attack him, Yan Mo stood up, and he saw a narrow road between the four skeletons. It was so deep that the light of the fire couldn't get in.
The ground was very slippery, and a layer of moss of an invisible color had grown on the surface of the rock wall. This kind of moss seems to be able to secrete a kind of mucus. Yan Mo was anxious to look at the bones inside, so he didn't specifically check this kind of moss, but roughly inferred that the oxygen here might be related to these mosses.
The narrow road was also covered with that kind of moss up and down, left and right, Yan Mo took a slippery step, and as he walked, he lowered his head.
The moss on the ground is also very thick, but it can still be vaguely seen that some places are slightly thinner than others. If these thinner places are connected, it seems that something dragged something that once passed here. generally.
Is there any danger ahead
It would be great if Yuan Zhan was there, since he walked underground, he could detect any danger in advance.
The narrow path was not long, and after walking about twenty meters, we came to a vast space.
How big is this space? Yan Mo couldn't even use a torch to illuminate it. He only subconsciously felt that the space was quite large.
"Front… "
Yan Mo took a step carefully.
The ground was solid and slippery, and the surroundings were quiet, nothing came to attack him.
But darkness itself is a threat.
After walking less than ten steps, Yan Mo was already sweating.
In such a quiet place, you can even hear your own heartbeat clearly.
"Crack." Yan Mo stepped on something.
In the empty and silent space, the sound was very obvious, and it was unknown whether it was sweat or the pool water from before rolling down from the corner of Yan Mo's forehead.
Looking down at his feet, he saw a piece of gray bone crushed to pieces, only one end was still intact.
Not human bones. This is Yan Mo's first judgment.
This animal is huge.
I stretched out my hand to touch it, and looked closely at the color. The bone had been placed here for at least a hundred years.
After making these three judgments, Yan Mo kicked away the severed bone, bent down and looked at the surrounding ground with a torch.
Fortunately, he was more careful, starting from this severed bone, all kinds of scattered bones were scattered all over the ground. Some of the bones were covered with moss, some were so brittle that they seemed to break at the touch, but others looked fresh.
"Where are the bones you speak of?"
"Front… "
Yan Mo straightened his waist and pushed aside those bones with his feet as he walked. After walking about two hundred meters, his feet touched a step.
Holding up the torch and looking up, there are more than a dozen steps, and there seems to be a platform at the top.
If there is an attack, it should be now, right? Or is there any way to this step
Yan Mo pondered, not daring to step up the steps rashly.
After waiting for a while, seeing nothing attacking him, Yan Mo made up his mind and stepped on the first step relying on his immortal body.
There is no moss on the steps, and the feet seem to be very smooth? Yan Mo really wanted to take off the straw sandals and try, but finally gave up the idea.
One level after another, the twelve steps made him feel like he had run a 10,000-meter marathon.
I went all the way to the top, and nothing happened.
Yan Mo let out a sigh of relief, and raised the torch a little higher.
He saw bones!
There is almost no doubt, Yan Mo knew that it must be the bone mentioned by the Fruit of Witch Luck at the first glance when he saw the bone.
The bones were placed neatly in the center of the table.
It looks like the skull of some kind of creature, it is bowl-shaped, and its area is almost larger than that of an adult man. It is dark in color, and it actually emits a strange luster under the light of the fire.
There is an oval groove in the very center of the skull, and four transparent oval crystals are placed neatly around the skull.
Yan Mo didn't go to get the skull immediately, he was looking at the platform where the skull was placed.
When I got closer, I realized that this square table with a length and width of about two meters and a height of about one meter and two meters was actually made of bones.
The same goes for the twelve steps!
However, the color of these bones is still normal, milky yellow.
Not to mention how many bones are needed for this, there are four pillars around the top step, vaguely as if there is something standing on the surrounding pillars.
Yan Mo couldn't help being curious, and holding a torch, he walked over to have a look.
On each bone pillar stood an extremely huge bone bird with its wings folded.
Yan Mo was surprised, he didn't see any thread ends or bindings on the four bone birds, so how did these bones support them
There are also the twelve steps, the four bone pillars, and the bone platform on which the skull is placed. They are not built with one or one bone, but countless bones are intertwined to form a strange and regular structure. made.
Did he discover some kind of ancient civilization? Those bones didn't seem new, and he couldn't understand the construction method.
Discover ancient civilizations in ancient times
Yan Mo was funny, or did he break into a temple of a certain race or an important place
No matter which one, the nation that can create this bone culture must be a nation full of wisdom and imagination.
Yan Mo looked around. It was about 200 meters from the exit of the narrow passage to the steps. If the platform was right in the middle of the space, then the space would have a diameter of at least 400 meters and a height not too low. He stood At the top of the steps, you can't see the top when you look up.
Is there something else in this space
Was there a race he hadn't seen living here
Who built it here? what purpose? What's the use of that skull
Why did those skeletons with a human upper body bring him here
He has come here, and he can get the skull by reaching out, why hasn't anything attacked him so far
Yan Mo asked Wu Yunzhi these questions, and Wu Yunzhi only answered him with two words: "Bones..."
Yan Mo exhaled again, and turned to look at the pitch-black skull on the bone platform.
The Fruit of Witch Luck still depends on him to raise it. If he dies, it will not survive. The characteristics of the Returning Soul Tree will trap it to death, even if he dies. If his body rots or disappears, the Fruit of Witch Luck will also die. disappear.
So at least it won't hurt him, right
Yan Mo thought twice, walked to the bone platform, and stretched out his hand to the skull.
