Chapter 213 The Fourth Life
When I was worried, I gave a feed.In fact, my voice was to remind Xie Jun, but he didn't expect him to act as if he couldn't hear at all, and continued walking into the lake.

The corpse has noticed me.He was very interested in me, grinned his teeth, abandoned Xiejun, and strode towards me.

It’s true that I use walking to describe it. Half of his body is in the water. Although he has the help of water, it doesn’t affect him at all, and his walking speed is very fast, which is no different from normal people walking on land like flying. .

He was still holding the big spear in his hand. I didn't notice that the big spear was placed in the water. Now that he raised the big spear, my heart skipped a beat.

I am very afraid of him.Also confused by this scene, couldn't help but took a step back.

Iron donkeys only have daggers, no guns.But he still held the dagger and stuck close to me, and for a while he went up with me, in the posture of smashing against the dead body.

Xie Jun was not as panicked as the two of us, he had calculated the route of the dead body, and pushed half of the wooden boat out.

The wooden boat traveled a distance of less than ten meters, and gradually approached the dead body.Xiejun yelled at us, "Hide." After that, he held his breath and squatted in the lake, but his hand holding the gun was still held high.

I think I know the evil king's intentions thoroughly, and I blame myself for being too stupid for ignoring the current terrain and forgetting that the lake is also a natural refuge.

I didn't dare to trust the iron donkey, and I didn't have the mind to fight the dead body, so I curled up and fell to the ground.

The dead body's intelligence was not high, and it didn't realize the danger, and it didn't care too much about the oxygen cylinder on the half wooden boat.At this time, the hand of Xie Jun raised the gun moved.

He pulled the trigger first and fired the shot.A large number of bullets were shot all over the oxygen cylinder, but luckily, it did not cause an explosion.

The evil king did not give up, and pulled the trigger again.This time it worked, several oxygen cylinders roared one after another, anyway, the sound of thumping was endless.I was also excited, and my heart tightened every time I heard it.

The dead body was so close to the oxygen cylinder, it was literally blown up.Not to mention that his body was bruised, even a small piece of his brain was missing.

He didn't go ashore either, instead he swung around in the water with a posture of baring his teeth and five claws, and yelled a few times.

As soon as I waited for the explosion to pass, I couldn't wait to look up.I bet that with the current state, the dead body is impossible to do.It will become a complete "dead corpse".

I couldn't help shouting, and got up from the ground together with the iron donkey.Then the evil king also stood up from the water.

We quietly watched the movement of the dead body, and I found a strange thing, a strange liquid came out of his nose and mouth.The liquid glowed slightly red, and there were some small red dots inside.

After it fell on the lake, it turned into a big beach and went straight to the Xiejun River.

I have a bad idea, this liquid is alive, even has signs of life, it will stick to the evil king, who knows what will happen?
I will remind the evil king.In fact, what I can think of, Xie Jun has already realized it.

As soon as he waved to me, he still looked so calm, and he started immediately, walking back to the shore step by step.It's just that his walking speed is not as fast as the liquid flow.

Before I got ashore, the liquid was already on Xiejun's back. I reckoned that it would touch Xiejun's body in a few blinks of an eye.

I'm in a hurry, and I have to remind Xie Jun.But Xie Jun seems to have eyes behind his back, or he has calculated the time accurately.

He turned around abruptly, and fired two shots at the red liquid with the Xia bullet gun.

The whole liquid was beaten into ripples, and then dispersed, turning into small pieces, not chasing the evil king anymore.

Xie Jun snorted coldly, set off again, and went ashore to join us.

All he thought about was the wounded, and he immediately went to see the little dwarf and the old cat.Iron Donkey and I quickly followed.

At this time, the old cat also fell into a coma. At first glance, his state was worrying, but I think it is a good thing. After waking up, he will definitely recover a lot.

I took the time to say a few words to Xie Jun to reassure him that the little dwarf and the old cat are fine.

Xie Jun nodded.In fact, he was already tired and sat down on the ground again.I sat next to him with the iron donkey.

I think it's time for Xie Jun to tell us what happened just now, including how he fought against the corpse in the lake, but Xie Jun looked at the night sky and suddenly said, "Human, why are you always not satisfied?"

Iron donkey and I looked at each other, and we both guessed that the conversation was not over, so we didn't bother.After a while, Xie Jun looked away, stared at us and said, "We always talk about changing the world, creating the world, etc., but we don't know that the world will not change, but what we are doing is actually challenging this world. The tolerance of the world. Because of dissatisfaction, we invented cars, airplanes, and tanks, which is nothing. Afterwards, we went to study nuclear bombs, using this highly destructive weapon to impact the world, and in recent years, there have been the emergence of genetically modified , What is this doing? Creation? Once one day, this world really can't stand it anymore, won't it use its anger and completely wipe out us humans?"

I think Xie Jun's words are quite reasonable. The question is, what does it have to do with the trouble we just encountered?I didn't want to hear him continue talking, so I simply asked, "What's the matter with the dead bodies and those heads? How can they still be alive and attack people in the sea?"

This was also the question on Iron Donkey's mind, and he indicated that he also wanted to know.

Xie Jun suddenly sneered, and asked both of us, "Do you know that there is a fourth life form in this world?"

Iron donkey shook his head, and I thought about it, and asked tentatively, "Does Tai Sui count?"

Xie Jun agreed and said in detail, "Tai Sui is the fourth life form in nature that is non-plant, non-animal, and non-fungal. In fact, it is a large slime-mold complex. Its cell structure cannot be observed. On Ghost Island, there is another fourth life that can invade the body, even a dead body. After that, it will combine with the nervous system of the body and provide for it, and gradually Take the place of the subject and become the new master of the flesh."

I understand, the slime mold complex that Xie Jun said is the root cause of the weird appearance of the dead body and the nine heads, and the red liquid left from the dead body just now should be the real appearance of this slime mold .

I think it's too scary, especially the word parasitic, which keeps recurring in my heart.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but the place where I sat was very damp, and my pants were wet.I was frightened when I found out, and I jumped up with a whoosh as if I had a spring attached to my body.

I thrashed hard, afraid that this slime monster might hide in me.

Xie Jun waved his hand again, saying that I am too sensitive, this slime mold is a treasure, even a rare creature, it is impossible for it to spread like this.

Iron Donkey was also dissatisfied with my actions, and said, apprentice, please sit back and calm down.

I still have a bit of a shadow, and I dare not sit down, but I can't be looked down upon by them, so I simply made a compromise and squatted down.

Xie Jun ignored me, instead he turned his head to stare at the iron donkey, and asked, "Fatty black, Lao Xie has a treasure on him, I reckon it was taken away by you, right?"

The name Laoxie is very unfamiliar, but I can guess that it refers to the dead body, and the treasure mentioned should be the bead in the chrysanthemum.

I looked at the iron donkey.In fact, as soon as this question was uttered, Iron Donkey became very sensitive.

He didn't even admit it, he just laughed and said, baby?He has no idea.

But all this has not been hidden from the eyes of the evil king. He seems to be able to penetrate the iron donkey's body and directly see the iron donkey's heart.

Xiejun didn't embarrass the iron donkey or anything, he just waved his hand and said that's all, the beads are not his, so the iron donkey can use it as he likes.

Afterwards, he gave the old cat another meaningful look, and as for the iron donkey, he quickly changed the subject, trying to distract the evil king by talking nonsense.

Xiejun didn't want to hear it anymore, and after chatting casually, he waved his hand to interrupt the conversation of the iron donkey, and told us that we would spend the night here, and we would set off again after dawn.

To be honest, with Xie Jun now, we have encountered too many dangers. All eight of us have been injured to some extent. I don’t want to continue, otherwise it is very likely that no one will be able to return to the Neptune alive. .

But after thinking about it in another way, the iron donkey and I can't part ways with the evil king, otherwise we can't figure out how we got here, let alone go back.

I bit the bullet, and reluctantly found an open space to lie down.The temperature in Ghost Island is moderate, and the night is not too cold.In addition to taking a nap, I also got up halfway to check on the wounded.

But nothing major went wrong that night. Early the next morning, Xie Jun woke us up and yelled to leave.

The injured dwarf was still unable to walk and had to be supported by his companions. However, after a night of recuperation, the old cat was still much better than me, even though he could not recover to his usual level.

A group of us hit the road, climbing up the cliff.I, the iron donkey, the old cat and the evil king all descended from the cliff, so climbing back was relatively easy and even gained some experience.Know where to go.

After climbing to the top, the evil king asked us to walk along the river bank to the outside of the restricted area. Other places are easy to talk about. When we cross the thorny ground, we will delay a little.

It is impossible to cut down all these thorns, so we have to change our strategy, sticking to the edge of the thorns, half of our body in the river, so as to overcome the current and walk over.

Of course, we dare not go too far from the shore, otherwise we will not be rushed away, but if we are close, we will easily be scratched by thorns.

When I finally walked out of the area, I looked at my hands full of slits and sighed helplessly.

I remember that we didn't bring dry food, and we were all hungry at the time, and now, I found that there were no signs of fish swimming in the river, and there were few hoof prints in the roadside forest.

I don't want us to drink the northwest wind, so how can we have the strength to move on and go deep?I also ask the truth.

Xie Jun told me not to worry, and pointed to the river and said, "How can you be sure that there is no food here?"
