Chapter 422 Desperate Escape (03)

The ruins that fell from above connected the next layer with this one layer by layer. I don’t know if the thing is pressing down on it, but with the size of the thing, it seems that these ruins are not pressing him well. Perhaps, Ye Feng jumped down the most unbelieving, they didn't have time and energy to go to the next hole, judging from the traces, it didn't take long for the mummy to come up, if they continued to walk around, they might bump into it, Going down from here can save a lot of time and trouble, although it is a bit risky, it is really worth it.

Ye Feng told them from below that the thing seemed to have crawled away, there were large drag marks on the ground, and there was something like blood from the thousand-year-old tree corpse. After all, this is a three-storey height with a drop of tens of meters, but it is not known where this thing went.

"This floor may be troublesome. We have to find the entrance, but we are likely to meet that thing." Si Xuanyi reminded everyone, "Don't be too scattered, leave as quickly as possible."

"It's enough to avoid the drag marks." Zhang Weichen said, "That thing will definitely make noise when it moves a lot. We should pay attention to the movement around us and be careful."

"Go!" Si Xuanyi nodded to greet everyone.

The place where they came down was a mess. It wasn't the road they opened up before. Ye Feng observed the surrounding situation and confirmed that it was not too far from the place where they came up. Just go around the tree trunk, even if the terrain here is more complicated. , it’s only a ten-minute journey, and the worst thing is that part of it is where the drag marks passed. That is to say, they are likely to encounter that thing, so they can only choose to go in another direction, and the distance may be relatively long A little bit, but in comparison, it is much better than colliding with that thing again. The thousand-year-old tree corpse is not easy to deal with. It has been trapped in that platform for 2000 years. Although it grows extremely by sucking the nutrients of this big tree It's huge, but it's finally free today. It's definitely their biggest threat now. Just now they were just lucky to blow that thing off the top, but they also used up all the explosives. What if they encounter it again? to deal with it?By the gun in hand?This thing doesn't deserve to tickle that thing.

"What should I do? Which way to go?" Deng Chunming is not familiar with this place at all. After all, this is not the place where they came up, so Ye Feng had to lead the way to find the opening.

"Follow me, keep quiet..." Ye Feng looked around very cautiously. In order to avoid encountering the thousand-year-old tree corpse, he chose to go in another direction. Now they would rather walk a little longer than collide with that thing .

In fact, it's not that complicated, as long as you go around the other side of the trunk, after all, most of their roads up are not far from the trunk.

But what they didn't expect was that as soon as they turned around the protruding canopy, they saw four or five mummy corpses squatting in front of them. These things didn't control any corpses, and they were all concentrated in that small space. There was no movement on the ground.

"Damn..." Zhang Weichen's head hummed, and he raised his hand and shot at one of the mummy's head, causing black juice to splash all over the head, and the rest of the mummy turned their heads very quickly, but strangely The body is motionless except for the head.

"Bah bah bah..." All the heads of the mummies were blown off after a random shot. They didn't have time to study what these things were doing. The most urgent task was to eliminate these threats and not give them a chance to get angry. Didn't expect it to be so easy to do.

"What's the matter with these things? Have you been using the body-holding method?" Although they were relieved after killing these things, they also felt very strange. Zhang Weichen stepped forward and kicked the things, but just before he entered, he He found that there were long and thin things protruding from the back of the canopy to entangle the corpses. Almost instantly he recognized that they were the tentacles of the thousand-year-old tree corpse, and at that moment the tentacles suddenly rolled up. He swung it up and entangled his leg, and got into his calf without giving him a chance to react. His feet went limp and he sat on the ground, and the rest of the tentacles rolled towards him. Coming over, it entangled him in an instant, and he simply couldn't avoid it.

"My day..." He Kai was startled and rushed a few steps to follow the tentacle with the bayonet of [-] covers, but he was also entangled, and he was pulled away in an instant. He is not stupid Knowing that something was wrong, he turned around and ran, but as soon as he turned around, his leg was entangled by that thing and he fell to the ground. Ye Feng grabbed his back and cut off the tentacle that was entangled with his leg. Then he ran back, and two more tentacles chased up from behind, and they were all cut off by it. The thing was extremely tough, if it wasn't for his extraordinary physical strength, it would be really difficult to cut it off.

"Save people, save people..." Si Xuanyi also rushed up but was grabbed by Li Siming, "It's too late." In fact, they all knew that it was very possible to snatch Zhang Weichen back at this time.

At this time, Zhang Weichen had already been dragged into the canopy of the tree. Although he howled and struggled, it was of no use at all. He disappeared almost in the blink of an eye.

"This way..." Ye Feng reacted the fastest, holding a knife and rushing around the canopy over there, and everyone followed closely behind. After going around, they saw countless tentacles wriggling there, but they didn't Seeing the big thing, it seemed that it was still farther away. At this time, Zhang Weichen had been dragged far away. He could only hear voices, but could not see people. He was completely dragged deep into the canopy of the tree. Tentacles are also stretching towards them, they can only turn around and run, this is not something they can handle, the guns in their hands are really useless against this thing, and they can't stop hitting them for a few times. Roots, instead of wasting time, let them get closer, and if they are really entangled, there is almost no chance of getting out.

"Where are you going?" Si Xuanyi asked Ye Feng.

"I don't know, let's get rid of this thing first." Ye Feng doesn't care about it now. At this time, all he can do now is to get out of danger first. As for the rest, we can only talk about it later. After all, we have to save our lives before we have a chance to think about other issues. .

"Zhang Weichen is finished..." Deng Chunming said while running, "We shouldn't just leave him like this."

"Then what else can we do? We can't even save ourselves!" Li Siming looked back at the thing while running, and there were many tentacles chasing after him. They never thought that the tentacles of this thing were so long.

"How long is it? Why is it still following us?" Zhu Xiaofeng panicked.

"Just run, don't stop." Si Xuanyi greeted everyone, at this moment, they had no other choice but to run.

Probably out of fear of that thing, they fled all the way. In fact, the tentacles retreated after they ran out. After all, the length of that thing is limited, and it is impossible to extend forward endlessly, but they still don't He dared to stop, for fear that the thing was coming out, and ran to a stop due to lack of energy.

"Finally... Finally got rid of it..." Deng Chunming was panting violently, and he almost fainted from running all the way.

"What kind of bird place is this?" Li Siming looked around. Although he ran not far away, he had never been to this place. It seems that it is not easy to find the entrance of the cave. First of all, he can't go back the same way. They can only grope a little bit, so it is not easy for them. They are forced to continue to take risks here.

Ye Feng said: "I remember the direction. Although there is a detour, it won't waste too much time. It's just that the place is probably controlled by the thousand-year-old tree corpse. Even if we find it, it is impossible to pass so easily."

"We have to take a gamble, we can't stay away because of fear." Si Xuanyi said, "Although that thing has a wide range of control, it may not really be where we are going."

At this time, they have no choice, and they have to try whether they succeed or fail, so they can only follow Ye Feng to move forward.

In fact, the environment on this floor is not as complicated as they expected. Although they have never been there, it is easier to walk than the lower floors, and there is no maze-like layout.

"It's strange, where did those mummies climb up?" He Kai was a little puzzled.

"That thing can run anywhere. It is much more flexible than us. It probably followed our breath." Ye Feng said in a low voice. So powerful."

"We have to go down several floors before we can find any traces of the devils, which means that only after we go down can we have a chance to seize some urgently needed explosives from the devils, and this process may be quite difficult, at least not so easy on this floor. If we want to go down, we have to take a lot of risks, but if we want to leave this place, we must continue to go down." Si Xuanyi said, "Unless we can find another way."

"Other ways? It's nothing more than climbing down from the outside of the canopy. First, we don't have a rope. Second, we can't break through that layer of shell. It's almost impossible to get out, unless we are lucky and can find the edge of this layer." But I'm afraid I have to search from the canopy little by little, which will waste more time." The fisherman who had been silent for a long time said, "So it's not easy."

"So it seems that we can only go that way?" Zhu Xiaofeng shook his head, "In short, we can't get rid of that thing."

"Yes, we can't get rid of it at all." Si Xuanyi said, "We still have to walk around to find that place."

In fact, the space on this floor is far less than that of the lower floor, so they started to walk back after a short search. Ye Feng walked very cautiously, basically stopping and going, and did not move forward until it was confirmed that it was safe. On the nearby ground, they found a large number of messy marks, all of which were left by the tentacles crawling there, and some drag marks seemed to be left by the thing grabbing something and dragging it back.

"It's almost there..." Ye Feng said in a low voice.

"Everyone, be careful." Si Xuanyi held up his gun and told everyone to follow closely. In fact, a knife was better than a gun to deal with that thing, but it was more dangerous. In short, they didn't have any effective tools to deal with that thing.

After bypassing the two protruding tree canopies, they became familiar with the situation in front of them, and immediately arrived at the place where they opened the hole before. They all knew that the thick tree trunk was ahead, and they could see it a little further, but At this moment, the canopy of the tree shook, and this thing came out of it. It was the thousand-year-old tree corpse that rushed towards them like a steamroller, and it was the countless thick tentacles at the bottom that dragged it up. , like a pile of twisting boa constrictors.

The long tentacles slammed over and slammed on the ground beside them. The floor was like mud tiles and easily shattered, like a long steel whip. The strength shocked them all. If this is on someone who smokes, it will definitely break bones and tendons.

"Grandma, why are you here again?" Si Xuanyi yelled at the thing while firing several shots, and the thing didn't even react at all after being shot.

"It seems to be wandering around here all the time, run fast." The fisherman also backed up while shooting, and they all knew that this thing couldn't be dealt with at all.

The floor under the feet of the thousand-year-old tree corpse must have cracked and shattered, and the huge body rushed towards them. Although the gaps in the canopy of the big tree were too narrow, they couldn't stop its rampage at all, but the canopy was not a piece of cake either. It didn't have any effect, it couldn't stop its huge body but it could block the fluttering tentacles, and finally gave them a chance to escape. If this is an open space, they must be entangled by that thing, and soon the thing You will no longer be constrained by those tree crowns that block the way, and you will no longer continue to chase them along the escape route, but take a straight line, directly crush those tree crowns that block the road and hit a road, this is the most terrible thing, once It made them have no way to escape, and quickly narrowed the distance between each other. In addition, the thing moved extremely fast, and it didn't take long for them to be caught up.

"There is no way to escape like this." Li Siming shouted while running.

"Help!" Following Zhang Weichen, Wu Zhendong was also entangled by that thing, and was dragged back almost instantly. They saw the thing's countless tentacles spread out, as if it had opened a big mouth to wrap him directly. Among them, it disappeared as if being swallowed, and Wu Zhendong also became silent all of a sudden.

"My God! Run quickly." Deng Chunming was almost frightened and ran out. With his skill and physical condition, he was able to run so fast, which shows how frightened he was.

"Ye Feng, think of a way..." Si Xuanyi greeted eagerly while running.

"No way, let's run..." Ye Feng also said while running. At this time, what else could they think of except running for their lives?
