Chapter 27: cocoon

Views:

Xie Lun turned somersaults several times, and finally stopped when he caught something in the dark. Then countless long and thin things stretched out and quickly wrapped around Xie Lun's body.

Passive skills: Low-level close combat specialization, activated.

Sherron growled and struggled to separate. Although it was difficult to see what those long and thin things were in the dark, they were very fragile.

Despite the large number, they were all torn apart and torn apart by Xie Lun's brute force struggle.

In this dark darkness, Xie Lun didn't know how long he struggled. Anyway, Xie Lun felt like he was holding a piece of red-hot coal in his throat. His hands were so weak that he almost couldn't hold on anymore. Those things finally stopped attacking.

Xie Lun didn't care if there was any danger below, he just sat down and panted heavily. After all this tossing, I lost my gun and dropped my cell phone. After groping around for a long time, I finally took out a small flashlight from my pocket.

As soon as he turned on the flashlight, a ferocious and twisted face appeared in front of Xie Lun's eyes. Xie Lun was so frightened that he almost threw the flashlight away.

After calming down and observing carefully, Xie Lun discovered that the man's whole body was wrapped in straw like a cocoon, with only one face exposed. Xie Lun could tell without even reaching out to test his breath that this man was already dead.

Xie Lun couldn't help but take a breath of cold air as he swept the flashlight to the left and right. The small space is full of such cocoons, scattered across the space, standing or lying down.

Xie Lun touched his neck uncomfortably. If he hadn't resisted desperately just now, he might have been wrapped into a cocoon like these people.

The space made of straw and corn stalks was shaking slightly, probably because the monster was moving. Xie Lun stabilized his body, walked around these cocoons, and looked for entrances and exits.

Assuming that this space is the monster's stomach, then this "stomach" is not small, it must be dozens of square meters. Xie Lun stepped deep and shallow, and it took him a long time to turn around, but he didn't find any place for entry or exit.

"I'll wipe it. It doesn't matter if it doesn't come in. Don't you still have to come out? Are you Pixiu? Light can't come in or come out."

Xie Lun didn't believe in evil, and when he was about to search again, he suddenly felt a thrill in his body and turned his head to look diagonally across.

I saw a cocoon standing diagonally opposite. From the outside, this cocoon seemed no different from other cocoons. But if you look closely, you can see that there is no human face on the surface of this cocoon.

The others are full of people, but what is wrapped in this one

Xie Lun held the flashlight in his mouth, inserted it with both hands, and then tore it out with all his strength. There was only a crisp sound of cracking hay, and the entire cocoon was torn open by Xie Lun.

At the same time that the cocoon was torn open by Xie Lun, the entire space suddenly shook and shook violently. At the same time, countless tentacles made of straw ejected from all around and grabbed Xie Lun.

Xie Lun knew that he had found the monster's life gate, and hurriedly stabilized his body and looked into the cocoon. What I saw inside was a rotten body, and I could still vaguely identify it as the corpse of an old woman.

What made Xie Lun's hair stand on end was that the corpse's eyes were open, emitting a faint green light, staring at him.

"Is this the true form of the monster?"

Before he had time to confirm, Xie Lun's eyes suddenly turned blood red.

"Active Skill: Face Fear", activate

In an instant, phantom clips flashed before Xie Lun's eyes:

A gray-haired old man was kneeling in front of a grave with a cross and crying bitterly.

On a rainy night with lightning and thunder, the old man dug up the grave

Under the dim light, the old man muttered something while wrapping straw around the body.

The old man was leaning on a cane, holding coffee, and looking at the cornfield not far away with a look of relief. Beside him, a scary scarecrow wearing a black cloak was lying on a recliner and slowly shaking.

The coffee cup was smashed to pieces, and the stunned old man stood in front of the window, watching the scarecrow swallow a little girl in a white dress.

The old man picked up the thin and long crutch in his hand, stabbed it into the scarecrow's chest, and then hung the scarecrow high on a cross wooden stake.

The last scene is that the bulldozers roared in, flattening the wooden piles, and the scarecrow who was imprisoned by the crutches was freed.

Sherron held his forehead, and the familiar headache came again. However, it seemed that the monster's reaction was much greater than his. Centered on the rotting corpse, the surrounding space made of straw, corn stalks, etc. began to turn black, decay, and eventually turned into pieces of black ash.

As the space disintegrated, Sherron fell out of the monster's body. Standing on the ground and looking up, you can see the complete decomposition of this monster more clearly. It didn't take long for the two-story monster to turn into black ash.

Only a scarecrow, as tall as a person, landed in front of Sherron. Before Xie Lun could react, the scarecrow suddenly turned into a black shadow, flashed into the cornfield, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Obviously, the monster is not dead, and we must find a way to kill it before it grows and becomes stronger again.

Xie Lun covered his forehead, resisting the severe headache, and ran out of the cornfield with some staggering. With the disintegration of the big monster, the cornfield looked back to normal.

So Sherron easily dashed through the cornfield, onto the dirt road, and onto the pickup truck that was now at the back of the convoy.

"System, repair this car to a starting state."

If the target is repaired during scanning and can be used, it will cost 5 points. Do you want to repair it

"repair."

After deducting 5 points, the target can meet the basic needs.

Before the system could finish speaking, Xie Lun started the pickup truck, made a quick U-turn, and sped away in the direction the convoy came from.

Through those flashing images, Sherron had found a weapon to restrain the scarecrow. Now he could only pray that the weapon still worked and that he could find it before the scarecrow struck again.

After driving along the dirt road for more than half an hour, Xie Lun finally found a small trail sandwiched in the cornfield on the side of the road. He drove directly onto the trail and drove for another ten minutes before arriving at the small house. farm.

Looking at the dilapidated building in front of him, Xie Lun figured out from his memory the location where the old man had nailed the scarecrow to the stake before he drove into the cornfield again.

"Where, where, where"

After driving to the approximate location of the wooden pile, Sherron got out of the car and searched the surroundings carefully. However, time passed by, and although Sherron remembered the location, after all, the wooden pile had been flattened by bulldozers, and the corn bushes had been moved, so it was still very difficult for him to find it.

The mysterious cold wind slowly passed by, and the originally motionless corn leaves began to tremble slightly.

The hair all over Sherron's body stood up. It was obvious that the scarecrow was back to kill him again.
