Chapter 656: The Monster Corpse Demanding Life
The falling object caused this section of the plank road to shake violently.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
The thing that fell down looked like a woman. There was a thin layer of mucus on her body, and her snow-white skin had the texture of frog skin. Although it had not turned black yet, everyone was sure that it was a crawling corpse!
Compared with other crawling corpses, this one was much fresher. The flesh on her face was smashed, her eyeballs were bulging as if they were about to burst out, and there were many scratches on the exposed skin. In some places, the muscles and blood vessels were even turned out.
After the crawling corpse landed on the ground, it grabbed General Huang Yuan's neck fiercely!
Huang Yuanjiang was tall and with Lan Xuan's reminder, he could have easily blocked the hands, but he was subconsciously a beat slower, and was grabbed by the neck by two pale hands with manicured nails!
"You killed me!"
"I'm here to take your life!"
The female crawling corpse's nails were almost piercing into Huang Yuanjiang's neck, and its bulging eyes were staring straight at his face.
Everyone was very familiar with the appearance of this woman. She was none other than the newcomer Tang Shihan who had fallen off the cliff due to General Huang Yuan's reckless release of the curse and the rope being accidentally cut!
Tang Shihan's face was covered in blood, and her originally pretty face became ugly and terrifying because of the extreme expression of hatred.
Wu Xian and Huang Yuanjiang were some distance apart, so he couldn't help much, but when he saw Tang Shihan, he was subconsciously startled.
"It turned out to be her!"
When Wu Xian looked down from the plank road before, he found that the crawling corpse looked familiar, but because of his limited vision, he did not recognize it as Tang Shihan.
I'm afraid she has been hiding under the plank road, following behind everyone, waiting for an opportunity to seek revenge on General Huang Yuan!
Huang Yuanjiang's face turned red and he was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe. He still had a spell in his hand that could release the "Golden Sword Curse" for the last time.
But he tried several times and failed to release it.
Seeing that Huang Yuanjiang was about to suffocate and faint, Lan Xuan rushed over from behind and stabbed Tang Shihan in the temple with a small dagger.
With one cut of the knife, the crawling corpse suddenly stopped moving.
The name of this dagger is "Broken Knife Mountain". It is made from a piece of blade fragment from the Knife Mountain Hell. Although it is difficult to break through the defense when cutting mummy statues, it can kill things like crawling corpses with one blow.
After Tang Shihan fell down, Lan Xuan held onto the wall. She was already in a very bad condition, and after killing Tang Shihan, she became dizzy and pale, and her chest kept heaving due to her heavy breathing.
She whispered to Huang Yuanjiang, "Didn't you say you would protect me when I was injured? So you're doing the opposite? You can't even deal with a crawling corpse. Is that curse just for wiping your ass?"
Huang Yuanjiang got up from the ground and was silent for a while before speaking:
"Because she was right. I was the one who killed her..."
"And whenever I want to release the curse, I will think of the last scene. Now there are people on the plank road. If the trajectory of my curse deviates again and falls on someone, I will..."
After hearing this, Lan Xuan stopped scolding. She patted Huang Yuanjiang on the shoulder, trying to give him some comfort.
Huang Yuanjiang's reaction shows that he has been feeling guilty for accidentally harming Tang Shihan since he entered the blessed land.
call!
A black hand stretched out without warning and grabbed the woman's arm!
Tang Shihan's ankle was grabbed by a black hand!
The black hand exerted violent force, breaking Tang Shihan's hips from feet to legs, squeezing her torso, and pulling her straight into the hole.
The spilled blood splashed all over Huang Yuanjiang, casting even more of a shadow on his already uncomfortable mood.
When Tang Shihan's body was completely pulled into the hole by the black hand, Huang Yuanjiang seemed to hear Tang Shihan's voice saying:
"I will come to find you again, and I will never let you go!"
After Tang Shihan's body was pulled into the cave, the sound of chewing and tearing flesh could be heard from the cave.
Although Tang Shihan was no longer a human being strictly speaking, her body was still fresh after all. To these evil spirits squeezed in the tunnel, it was a delicacy like dragon liver and phoenix marrow.
Whoosh, whoosh! One after another, the black arms retreated from the hollow. Roaring, scrambling, and fighting sounds came from the hollow. The corpse of one person caused a large number of evil spirits in the cave to scramble for it.
Wu Xian's eyes lit up. The arms outside were attracted back by the corpse. Now was their once-in-a-lifetime chance to pass through this area.
"Hurry up, we have to get through here before they finish eating!"
Everyone acted hurriedly, keeping quiet while quickening their pace, and soon escaped from the range of the black hand grass.
After leaving this range, everyone's movements slowed down, and everyone was careful not to make any noise, giving people a feeling of depressing silence on the plank road.
Tang Shihan's return brought a small shock to everyone's hearts.
Since she could fall into the Valley of the Dead and come back as a crawling zombie, it meant that after falling down, what awaited everyone was not only death, but perhaps something more terrifying than death. No one wanted their corpse to turn into a zombie.
The silent march lasted for more than an hour.
Everyone was relatively safe during this period. At most, two arms suddenly popped out, but it was not difficult to deal with a small number of black arms.
Everyone's mood slowed down again.
But there was one person who was extremely nervous. He was Guo Xiake, who was ranked second to last.
Half an hour after leaving the Blackhand Bush, he had been feeling a faint chill coming from behind him.
The chill made his hair stand on end, as if someone was pressing ice cubes against his skin.
Guo Xiake was a man with very bad luck. "Even drinking cold water would get stuck in his teeth" might be a description for others, but it was a declarative statement for him.
Once, when he was drinking water, a piece of meat got stuck deep between his teeth, and he had to use a lot of effort to get it out.
But perhaps in exchange for his bad luck, he would have a premonition in advance when he was about to get into bad luck.
This premonition has saved his life several times.
So he turned his head and looked behind him cautiously, but there was only the long-faced man Wang Jiudan behind him, and nothing else.
After Guo Xiake looked back several times, Wang Jiudan's face gradually changed. He was terrified and his voice trembled: "What's wrong? Is there something dirty behind me?"
Guo Xiake shook his head: "No, this may be my illusion."
Wang Jiudan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, please don't scare me."
Guo Xiake turned around, and the chill still existed, and this time he could hear strange noises frequently.
After the strange sound appeared several times, the sound of swallowing saliva was heard again.
Guo Xiake's face suddenly changed. The sound of swallowing saliva made him suddenly realize what that strange sound was just now.
That's... the sound of grinding teeth!
