Chapter 194 Human Tree

Hang Si watched helplessly as a handsome face came towards her, and a voice in his heart told her, hide. But her body seemed to be pinned, unable to move, and her eyes were wide open.

Lu Nanshen's thin lips brushed against the corner of her lips and pressed against her ear. She felt her ears feel warm, and she didn't know whether it was his warm breath or the heat in her ears, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat.

The posture of the two of them is extremely ambiguous.

Lu Nanshen finally held the car seat with one hand and stabilized his body. He turned around and shouted, "Nian Baixiao, do you know how to drive?"

From this angle, even in the dark inside the car, Hang Si could see Lu Nanshen's ears, which were red.

The original embarrassment dissipated like a tide, replaced by a soft and itchy feeling in his heart. It turned out that he was shy too. This feeling filled Hang Si's heart, and he felt unexpectedly warm.

I didn't want to blame him, and I didn't care about his rashness just now.

To put it into perspective, this was definitely Nian Baixiao's intention. He was a good prankster sometimes. But today, Lu Nanshen didn't even respond with a joke after he drank so much. Instead, he stopped the car.

"There seems to be something."

Lu Nanshen was slightly startled, seeing that Nian Baixiao didn't look like he was joking. He also heard a click just now, but he didn't take it seriously. It was normal for him to hit something while walking on this forest road.

The car behind also stopped. Chen Yezhou asked through the intercom what happened in front of him. After learning the situation, he got out of the car. Nian Baixiao and Lu Nanshen also got out of the car, their eyes brightly illuminated by the car lights.

Sure enough, there was something there, like bones or something.

Chen Yezhou didn't let Lu Nanshen and Nian Baixiao come forward. He took out the shovel from the trunk and squatted down to investigate. Soon the things were shoveled out. Nian Baixiao turned the flashlight on and could see more clearly.

It's actually a human skull.

With the help of the light, Fang Sheng and Hang Si, who were peering in the car, could also see clearly. Hang Si's expression changed, and Fang Sheng exclaimed in fright. You can't blame her. After all, compared to Hang Si, Fang Sheng doesn't have much outdoor experience, let alone seeing human skulls in the wilderness.

Nian Baixiao turned around and warned, "Stop looking."

Chen Yezhou put on his gloves and roughly checked the surroundings. It didn't matter at all, and he took a breath. It looked like there was not only a skull, but also scattered bones from other parts. It looked like it had been there for a long time. The clothes, skin and flesh had all rotted away, leaving only white bones.

"It seems that they are all victims in the early years who have not left this mountain." Chen Yezhou said.

Lu Nanshen's eyes were not on the ground. He looked around with the light tube in his hand. When the beam of light swept across a certain tree, he paused and the beam of light quickly turned back.

At the same time, another beam of light overlapped with the light in his hand. Lu Nanshen turned around and saw that Hang Si had gotten out of the car and was looking in the same direction as him with a flashlight.

The end of the beam was on the tree not far away.

There's a face in the tree!

This time it was so scary that Nian Baixiao almost jumped when he saw it by accident, and actually cursed with a succinct sentence——

"Fuck me!"

Fang Sheng didn't get out of the car, but he saw it, and his upper and lower teeth couldn't help trembling, "Is it a human or...a ghost?"

It's a person.

To be precise, it was a person standing on the trunk of the tree. No, it should be said that it was embedded in the trunk of the tree.

Under the dim light of the black light and the pale beam of light, the man looked like a tree trunk, with branches sprouting from his body, teeth and claws waving.

How to describe it, it looks very much like a human tree.

"What the hell is this?" Nian Baixiao was horrified but did not forget Fang Sheng. He moved his body to block Fang Sheng's sight.

Fang Sheng was so anxious that she stretched out her hand to pull him away, "Don't block him."

"Aren't you afraid? Stop looking." Chen Yezhou was about to step forward to check, but was stopped by Lu Nanshen. In a place like this, this person exists in this weird posture, and he may be hiding some danger. He has good ears, and if there is a real problem, he will have time to dodge in advance.

Hang Si took Lu Nanshen's arm and said, "I'll go with you."

Lu Nan turned his head deeply and his eyes fell on her cheek. He inadvertently thought of the scene in the car just now, and his heart felt warm. He nodded, "Okay."

The two of them slowly walked towards the man through the light.

As you get closer, you can see it clearly.

It's not that the man's body has branches growing out of it, but the man's entire body is embedded in the trunk of the tree. The trunk of the tree in front of me is almost hollow, and a person is standing in it.

It was a man, with his face raised and his eyes open, his face pale.

After getting a little closer, Lu Nanshen stretched out her hand to stop Hang Si, "Don't go any further."

Hang Si paused.

Lu Nanshen glanced around with a flashlight, especially around the trees. Hang Si saw something strange with his sharp eyes and pointed to the ground, "What is that? A snake?"

Something is moving.

It is thin and almost the same color as the ground. It looks like a snake, but its body is very rough. Overall, it looks like a living thing but not a living thing. It moves slowly against the ground.

Lu Nanshen took a closer look and said, "It's not a snake, more like a vine."

Can vines still move?

Lu Nanshen's flashlight followed the thing wandering on the ground and shone it all the way up. The thing was clinging to the trunk of the tree, and the part without the trunk was attached to the man's body. What's surprising is that this kind of vine can change its shape. The color is earthy when attached to the ground, but becomes the same color as clothes when attached to a person.

"Dead person?" Hang Si was unsure.

It is not unusual for a person to open his eyes after death, but what is unusual is for him to look forward with his face raised.

Lu Nanshen said with certainty, "He is dead."

No breathing could be heard.

but……

Other sounds can be heard.

There was a rustling sound, like the sound of bones gradually breaking.

The sound was so small that Hang Si couldn't feel it.

Lu Nanshen followed the sound and the light fell on the man's neck, "Hanghang, look."

Hang Si looked carefully and was about to ask what he wanted to see when he noticed the clue. I saw that there were things wrapped around the man's neck and face, as if he were fixed in the tree hole by thin transparent ropes. Those "ropes" penetrated the trunk of the tree and wrapped around the man. Another circle.

Now Hang Si understood why this man could still hold his face up even after death.

"Is it something like a piranha?" Hang Si has experienced the dangers of nature, especially the many unknown dangers in the deep mountains.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Nanshen whispered, "Be careful!" He then grabbed her waist and pulled her away.

The next second they both fell to the ground, and there was a clicking sound, as if something exploded. Her head was immediately protected by Lu Nanshen, as if something suddenly flew over their heads.
