Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 141 The Lost Thing

Esther leaned against the tree that night and took a nap in an uncomfortable position.

She only slept briefly for two hours, and woke up in the horror of being watched. The red moon hung high above the branches of the trees, stretching the shadows in the forest longer, and it seemed that there were eyes looking here from every corner .

She observed her left hand, the cursed black silk was still looming, but her palm had completely healed.

It really doesn't look like a human being.

Esther was hesitating whether to let "Zoya" out or not.

There is no one else around here, so Esther doesn't have to be afraid of attracting attention. If "Zoya" is allowed to confront Amon, she may be able to escape from this ghost place faster, but Esther has something more to fear , she was afraid that there would never be "Esther" again.

Pray to Mister Fool for help?Esther couldn't find such an opportunity, and Xiaoqi followed her every step of the way, which made Esther subconsciously reject such a choice.Especially after seeing the piece of bark with the "Fool" mark, Esther felt that Amon was intentional, and he was deliberately leading her to have a connection with "The Fool".

It wasn't until this deal that Esther fully understood how bad "Amon's body" was. No wonder Xiao Qi and Xiao Wu complained.

She rubbed the center of her right eyebrow, thinking about what to do next. Tomorrow, she had to continue to investigate the other half of the island that hadn't been there, but the hunger and drinking problems could only be endured...

The "obsessive-compulsive disorder bow tie" and the short knife are lost, and the harmonica, wind chime, and maraca are all on his body. The flip mirror has not been seen so far, and it is completely useless in battle.High-ranking people on the same path suppress low-ranking ones too strongly, especially when I haven't reached Sequence Four. He dared not parasitize me out of fear. Otherwise, he wouldn't make such a big detour to toss people. .

Esther glanced at the crow huddled beside her, and sighed silently.

The crow seemed to sense something, opened his eyes and looked up at her: "What are you going to do next?"

Esther shrugged and tried to break her jaw, but of course it still couldn't open, she shook her head at the crow again.

"That's right, you have no choice but to continue the game."

The crow shook off the two grass stalks stuck to its body, flapped its wings and stood on top of Esther's head, the playful smile in the black eyes just didn't fall into Esther's eyes.

As soon as the day dawned, Esther continued to search for the island. She followed the stream to the source of the underground spring and used it as a landmark to continue exploring where she hadn't been before yesterday.Instead of throwing away the fruit wrapped in banana leaves, she kept yesterday's harvest for a rainy day, and even if she couldn't eat now, she planned to keep it for two days.

There were two seabirds squatting on the treetops, and Esther glanced at them indifferently, ignoring their noisy whispers, grabbed a beetle climbing up her sleeve with her backhand, and threw it into the in the bushes.

Esther really wanted to curse loudly so that the group of idle Amon clones would not bother her, but she couldn't even do this kind of thing, and it would just add to the sulking.

There were more eyes staring at her in the dark.

Esther picked out the sharpened wooden spear in her hand and crushed the head of a lizard that passed by her feet, and the whispers were only slightly lowered.

She snorted, and her sharpened gaze swept over the corners that touched the "spiritual intuition" in her mind.

And the crow on Esther's head laughed softly.

But as time passed, the sun climbed to the highest point and then set in the west in the clear and cloudless sky, and Esther also felt a little irritated uncontrollably.

The hunger from her body almost reached a certain limit. Even though she avoided too strenuous activities and delayed her journey a little, she still couldn't avoid this moment.

The burning sensation of longing seemed to scald her stomach, and the tightness of twisting a towel was soon reflected in all her organs. Esther could feel her heart rate becoming unstable, It was fast and slow, making her feel dizzy for a moment from time to time.

Of course, the crow on top of Esther's head didn't care about this, it firmly grasped Esther's hair, listening to her disordered breathing, it didn't say a word.

There was a hint of darkness in Esther's eyes, but it soon faded as she tried hard to suppress her breathing, and returned to the original lightness.

At this moment, a strong aroma mixed with salty and sweet emerged in Esther's perception. It appeared quite abruptly, as if the long-occluded nasal cavity was suddenly ventilated, and the capture of this smell resumed.

The hunger almost made her go crazy, and Esther subconsciously reached out to the source of the strong smell, but it was empty.

The crow flew up and landed on the nearby tree branch, looking at her blankly and innocently: "Are you okay? Calm down! You don't want to eat your friends too, do you?"

Hearing this, Esther shook her head vigorously, but the salty and sweet smell in the surrounding air was still very strong. She had never liked the mixed taste of salty and sweet, but at this moment, Esther's appetite was lifted to the extreme .

She sniffed subconsciously, but then realized that this was not the "real" aroma of anything, but an illusion born of desire and temptation.Esther raised her hand and pinched her nose, this smell still clearly enveloped her perception without weakening in the slightest.

Is something that conveys this taste really edible...

Esther frowned, and waved her hand at the black crow, signaling it not to get too close.

However, the crow didn't seem to understand her expression and gestures at all, and flew straight to Esther's head, and said very concernedly: "It's fine, I'm still worried that you will lose control. Let's go, let's continue to find the next thing .”

"Well!"

The scent became more intense, and Esther was very annoyed, but she couldn't keep the other party away, she stretched out her hand and patted her head twice.But as soon as Esther's palm was put down, the crow immediately fell back on top of her head and stood there steadfastly.

"No no no no!"

After squeaking angrily, Esther had to take out a piece of iron and write on a piece of bark: "Stay away from me! I might really eat you!!"

The crow shook his head resolutely, and his words were full of certainty: "I believe you won't eat me! How could you eat your friend? You can't even open your mouth now, I won't be in danger .”

Esther didn't know when "Little Seven" became so stubborn, she angrily trampled the handwriting on the ground, and turned her attention to the nearby smell that attracted her.

It seemed that her expression was too obvious, and the smell around her quickly faded a lot.

Esther snorted amusedly and upset, knowing that those Amon avatars hid farther away in order to protect themselves.

However, after the alluring aroma around her faded, Esther sensed another very recognizable smell, like carrion soaked in blood, and the disgust that made her feel very familiar.

what the hell?

Esther followed the source of this perception and touched a huge stone that was one person tall. It took her a lot of effort to push the stone aside, exposing the turned soil underneath.

Esther dug twice with the iron sheet, and after touching some kind of hard surface, she carefully changed to digging by hand.

Buried here is an old iron box slightly bigger than a fist, covered with rust and mystical symbols, and the smell is constantly coming out of it.

"Well!"

Esther vomited twice.

However, this smell effectively dilutes the salty and sweet aroma of the crow. Although it failed to completely suppress Esther's craving appetite, it calmed down her twitching viscera a lot.

Best not to open it, it's disgusting.Esther thought so, wrapped the thing in a banana leaf, and tied it around her back with a cloak.

When I got the second item, I don't know whether it's a key or a heart, but there is such a disgusting feeling, it's probably the latter.

The crow flapped its wings excitedly: "Isn't there still hope? There are only two things missing!"

Esther suddenly pounced into the nearby bushes. Her sudden action forced the crow to fly into the air and land on the nearby stone pier instead.

Esther grabbed it with her left hand and stole the conch-shell hermit crab's idea of ​​escaping, then quickly grabbed it with her right hand and grabbed it into her palm. She struggled for two seconds, letting the hermit crab be weak The pliers were clamped on her fingers, and then Esther closed her eyes forcefully, and when she opened them again, she had made up her mind.

The crow quietly watched this scene, taking a panoramic view of the light passing through Esther's eyes, knowing that "Zoya" could no longer bear the strong sense of desire.

And what happened next was similar to what the crow thought.

An extremely faint light spot lit up on the hermit crab, and it flew up unsteadily. It approached Esther's forehead uncontrollably, blended into it and disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the hermit crab in the shell quickly lost its vitality, and a phantom worm with twelve links broke away from it, and then quickly dissipated into the air.

Esther endured the pain of drilling a hole on her forehead, but soon, the unusually weak light spot was swallowed by the light cluster in her mind, and the hunger in her stomach quickly subsided.She rubbed the center of her right eyebrow in a trance, and leaned wearily against the tree trunk next to her. It took a long time for the buzzing in her ears to calm down.

The crow did not speak, but quietly observed the change, thoughtful.

There was the sound of a branch being trampled, and Esther immediately stood up and turned to that direction vigilantly.

It was already dark, and He came to carry out the punishment of the second night.

The young man grabbed it casually, and the few grass leaves on the edge of the black robe disappeared. He smiled politely at Esther, but he didn't come out completely like yesterday. He just stood behind the bushes and talked with Esther. Keep your distance.

The crow landed on top of Esther's head, gripping her hair to steady himself.

Esther couldn't laugh at all, she could hear the slight whispering of the branches, she could hear her heart beating more and more intensely, and her breathing became heavy because of nervousness.

She clenched the wooden spear in her hand and lowered her left hand slightly.

"Good evening, I hope you're having a good time."

His right hand opened and closed again.

Esther's left hand also made the same movement, and she tried to steal the opponent's "steal distance" ability.However, good luck did not favor her, and the sequence suppression lay between the two, an insurmountable gap.

Esther saw the young man grinning, he should be laughing, his lips moved slightly, but Esther didn't hear anything.

What was taken away this time was hearing.

All sound disappeared from Esther's perception.
