out of time

Chapter 287
The fog was very thick, and it spread quickly in the dense forest, covering Xu Qing and the captain in the fog.

Looking around, there is fog all around, eyes can't penetrate, can't see a foot, it's hazy, as if even the sky is shrouded in fog, boundless.

The mist appeared too fast and cold, so it couldn't be formed naturally, it was most likely caused by weirdness, especially after touching Xu Qing at this moment, Xu Qing felt as if there were countless tiny existences hidden in the mist, following his path. The sweat pores of the skin must be drilled into the body.

But the protection of the life lamp and all the invasions of the strange fog have no effect at all.

"It's similar to the fog in the restricted area outside the scavengers camp, but the degree is much worse." Xu Qing looked around, and the captain's breath was also blocked by the arrival of the fog. He was by his side before, but now he can't feel it.

However, Xu Qing didn't worry about the captain. He felt that unless it was a restricted area, otherwise, compared with the captain, who was more fierce...

Especially at this moment, Xiaoying, who had just eaten the same kind, felt a little hungry and thirsty after the ghost mist appeared, and then absorbed the cool mist with surprise.

It gave Xu Qing the feeling that when he wanted to drink a sip of water after he was full, someone around suddenly handed over the water, so Xiaoying was very happy.

With the absorption of the shadow, the mist in front of Xu Qing became thinner, and he walked forward with a calm expression. His goal was the source of this weird mist. He wanted to see what kind of weirdness it was for him. Maliciousness has arisen, and it is necessary to transform into a mist to attack.

As we moved forward, the mist was absorbed by the shadow and became thinner, exposing the jungle trees inside. These trees looked hideous in the blur, as if they were ghosts and ghosts. At the same time, there were bursts of eerie laughter. echoed within.

I couldn't tell if it was a male voice or a female voice, they seemed to have both, and they were intertwined, from left to right, constantly surrounding Xu Qing's surroundings.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, controlled the shadow, and let him restrain himself from devouring it. He was worried that if the shadow swallowed it right now, it would scare away the real weirdness here.

He intends to kill this weirdness that has invaded and maliciously attacked him!

Under the restraint of the shadow, Xu Qingmu hid his murderous intentions and continued to move forward, walked through the jungle, and walked up the hill until half an hour later, a blurred figure in the mist appeared in front of him.

Faintly visible, it seems to be a wooden house.

As Xu Qing approached, the wooden house appeared in Xu Qing's eyes more and more clearly.

This is a very old house, the boards on it are broken, and there are big holes in many places. It seems that the house can collapse at any time, full of dilapidation.

In front of the door, there was a rocking chair, which was also seriously damaged.

There used to be yards and gardens around, but now the yard is covered by weeds, and the gardens are all withered. While it is full of vicissitudes, the location of this wooden house is also a bit strange.

It is on the mountainside, up and down, left and right, and there are dense forests. There is only such a lonely wooden house here, especially as it gets closer, the wind here is howling, blowing the surrounding trees and making noises, as if countless people are whispering .

Xu Qing glanced over, and suddenly looked at the rocking chair.

The rocking chair, obviously no one was sitting there at the moment, started to move, shaking slightly, not to a great extent, like the wind blowing, but also like an old man in his dying years, slightly shaking the years and memories of his life there.

Xu Qing's expression was as usual, and he glanced at the rocking chair. He remembered that when he arrived, the chair didn't move. It seemed that after he blinked, the wind blew up and it moved.

So Xu Qing blinked.

In an instant, a rope appeared in front of the door of the wooden house.

Xu Qing simply blinked several times, then the rope suddenly twisted, and then a corpse appeared.

The corpse of an old man hanging from a rope.

He was hanged for an unknown period of time, and became a mummy, only withered white hair hanging there.

The face is like a skeleton, the eyes are sunken into black holes, and the mouth is also open, as if to breathe instinctively before death.

Xu Qing blinked again.

The chair stopped shaking, a vague figure stood up from the chair, and walked towards the old man step by step, until it reached his corpse, the figure became clear and turned into a hunchbacked old woman.

She was holding a stone bowl in her hand, and the bowl was filled with bloody porridge, which was being fed into the open mouth of the hanging corpse.

The wind was colder, and the sound of crying and laughing echoed in all directions, and the weeds on the ground were shaking at this moment. While the overall range was extremely gloomy, you could see whether it was the old man hanging himself or the old lady feeding porridge. His face was extremely pale, but his lips were very red.

At this moment, under Xu Qing's gaze, after the old lady finished feeding half of the stone bowl of blood-colored porridge, she suddenly raised her hand and snapped off the old man's head.

"Old man, it's your turn to feed me!" The old lady's voice was extremely hoarse, as if rubbed against stones, extremely ear-piercing.

The corpse was still floating, with a hanging rope on it, and there was nothing in the middle. Although the heads were not there, they still remained the same as before, motionless.

As for the old lady, she put the old man's head aside in satisfaction, and then actually broke off her own head and put it on the old man's neck and the hanging rope.

He touched the old man's head and placed it on his neck.

After exchanging heads, the eyes of the old man's head suddenly revealed a glimmer of light, he picked up the bowl, and fed the hanging old lady mouthful.

It seems that they love each other, especially when feeding, the old man seems to be worried that his wife will be scalded, and when feeding, he will often blow a cloudy wind by himself before sending it into the old lady's mouth.

This scene was weird and at the same time extremely weird.

Xu Qing had no expression on his face, and silently watched them feeding mouth after mouth, without disturbing them. After a while, he found that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of attacking him, so he planned to leave.

But when he turned around and took a few steps, the old man and his wife, who were loving each other, turned their heads in an instant and looked straight at Xu Qing. The location of the house changed and appeared in front of Xu Qing again.

At the same time, they grinned, revealing their dark mouths and jagged sharp teeth, together with a faint sound.

"My son is back, do you want to have porridge?"

Hearing this, Xu Qing calmly glanced at the weirdness in front of him, walked towards them, and at the same time, there was a sound of swallowing at his feet.

There is also puddles of mucus, scattered from the shadow, and the ground where it is covered is corroding. It is Xiaoying's saliva that is almost uncontrollable.

It is obviously exerting great restraint.

This scene instantly changed the expressions of the old man and the old lady in front of the wooden house.

"Eat it." Xu Qing said lightly.

As soon as the words came out, the shadow that had long endured to the limit suddenly stood up from Xu Qing's back, turning into a huge black tree shadow.

Thousands of densely packed eyes all opened at the moment, staring straight at the old man and old lady, and even the big mouth was split open, blowing out a terrifying wind.

This scene made the old man and the old lady tremble all over, with horror in their eyes, the wooden house was blurred in an instant, and they wanted to escape, but it was still too late.

Xiaoying rushed forward, and the area nearby turned into a black shadow field in an instant, everything was covered in it, only the sound of chewing and shrieking continued, until a moment later, as the shadow field shrank, Returning to the little shadow at Xu Qing's feet, there was a clear wave of joy and satisfaction.

"good to eat……"

The surrounding mist also dissipated quickly because of the strange pair of deaths, until after a few breaths, it completely disappeared. Xu Qing continued to move forward, and soon saw the captain walking ahead.

The captain walked while eating a black apple.

On this apple, one can see a strange seal, whose appearance is similar to that of the old man and old lady. At this moment, it is screaming and being eaten by the captain one by one.

After seeing Xu Qing, the team leader raised his hand to say hello while eating, until the two came together, the team leader had finished eating the apple, licked the corner of his mouth, and looked at Xu Qing.

"I'm half full, and I've become greedy, why don't we look around here again?"

Hearing the captain's words, the shadow quickly conveyed desire to Xu Qing, and pleaded, as if acting like a baby... It wasn't full, and was still a little thirsty.

So Xu Qing nodded.

This scene made the Vajra Sect patriarch extremely vigilant. He felt that Xiaoying's flattering skills had obviously improved, and his sense of crisis was immediately strong.

"Still acting like a baby? Too much! Disgusting!"

Amid the anxiety of the Vajra Sect patriarch, Xu Qing and the team leader walked in the jungle, looking for weird things, but weird things would appear by themselves when they didn't want to encounter them on weekdays, but now Xu Qing and the two went to look for them. , I couldn't find it for a while.

Although they couldn't find it strangely, after walking for a while, they found a piece of fairy grass on the withered and heterogeneous ground.

"There are spiritual herbs here?" The captain asked in surprise after seeing it.

In the environment of Taisdu'er Mountain, spirit grass basically cannot grow. This kind of fairy grass only grows in places without heterogeneity. Often, various forces circle an area and use formations to disperse the heterogeneity. Can be planted.

Therefore, the appearance of this piece of grass is very unusual, especially their leaves are very small, and they are obviously stunted. This is understandable, but what makes people even more strange is that the area where the spirit grass grows is actually a long line, with one end Spreading to the deep mountains, one end is in the direction of Yunxian Wangu River.

Xu Qing squatted down, took out a stalk of spiritual grass to check, touched the soil of the growing spiritual grass, looked behind Yunxian Wangu River, and spoke in a low voice.

"Below, there is an undercurrent."

The captain narrowed his eyes and looked at the ground, and soon his eyes showed a faint light, as if he could see through the soil and see the bottom. After a few breaths, he laughed.

"It's so courageous. This is a secret passage led from the Yunxian Wangu River." The captain raised his head, looked at the end that spread into the deep mountain, and approached in a flash.

Xu Qing frowned. He felt that it was not safe to do so, but seeing the captain go, he followed, and soon the two of them saw the end of this undercurrent.

There... is actually a large tomb!
On the tombstone, there are three eerie words in blood.
