Chapter 10 Chapter Ten Strange Fragrance

The burly man stared fixedly at the back of the hall, waved his hands, and called everyone to come forward. More than 20 corpse chasers each held weapons and walked slowly towards the entrance of the hall with nervous expressions.Passing by the big tree, I could smell a faint fragrance.The fragrance seemed to come from a big tree. A corpse chaser was curious, walked up to the big tree, reached out and picked a fruit, and held it in his hand.The fruit became more and more red like blood. The dead man froze for a moment, stretched out his hand to touch it, and felt that the fruit was extremely soft. When he put it in his palm, he could feel liquid flowing in the blood-red fruit.Out of curiosity, the corpse chaser couldn't help stretching out his hand.

With a sound of "poof", the blood-red fruit burst open, and the juice in the fruit flowed out. The corpse chaser was so frightened that he yelled "Ah", when everyone heard someone exclaimed, they all thought that something happened, and hurriedly surrounded him. Everyone looked at the corpse chaser, only to see that the palm of the corpse chaser was full of blood. The burly man wondered, "Ouyang Tai, what's wrong with you?" Ouyang Tai tremblingly said: "I don't know, I just picked a fruit. When I reached out and touched it, the fruit burst, and the contents flowed out, and it became like this."

It was only then that everyone realized that what Ouyang Tai had in his hand was not blood, but the juice inside the fruit.It's just that the juice is really terribly red, and it is still slowly exuding a strange fragrance. The aroma is getting stronger and stronger.All the corpse hunters smelled the strange fragrance from this fruit, and they were all intoxicated.For a moment, these corpse chasers staggered, as if they were drunk. Lian Xing and Da Kui Da Qi in the hall did not understand why these people became like this. Lian Xing looked sideways at Jackson, seeing the moonlight shining through the hole in the roof, and saw that Jackson's face was flushed and his eyes became blurred.

Lian Xing was about to ask a question when he heard a "plop", and Jackson had already fallen to the ground.Lian Xing and Da Kui were taken aback.I saw that Jackson's eyes were closed tightly, his face was flushed, and he was already unknown.Lian Xing reached out to touch Jackson's nose, but felt that Jackson was breathing evenly, and he didn't seem to be in danger of life, so he felt relieved. At this moment, Da Kui whispered to himself: "Lian Xing, look." There was a trace of panic and anxiety in Da Kui's words. Lian Xing looked up, and saw that the corpse chasers in the courtyard had all collapsed to the ground at this time.Except for "Third Brother" and the burly man who still had their eyes wide open, the rest of them seemed to be drunk, their faces were flushed, their eyes were closed tightly, and they couldn't make a sound.

Lian Xing was puzzled and frowned, not understanding why such an astonishing change happened in such a short period of time. Suddenly, two sounds of "plop, plop" were heard, and the two horses tied to the red lacquered pillars also collapsed to the ground, but the white camel still acted as if nothing had happened. Lian Xing said in his heart: It seems that these two horses, like these people, have been poisoned by a kind of poison, and the poisoned people are as unconscious as if they were drunk.The strange thing is why there is nothing wrong with myself, Da Kui and the white camel, which is really incredible.

Da Kui asked in a low voice: "Lian Xing, what's going on?" Lian Xing said in a deep voice: "I think it seems to have a lot to do with that strange fragrance." Da Kui asked: "You mean they all fainted after smelling the strange fragrance?" Lian Xing nodded. Da Kui frowned, puzzled and said, "Then why are we both okay?" Lian Xing said slowly: "I'm also wondering why the two of us are not harmed by this strange fragrance." Lian Xing stared at the strange big tree in the courtyard, only to see that the blood-red fruit on the tree was glowing strangely in the dark night.It seems that the only way to find out the truth is to go and investigate under the big tree.

Lian Xing was about to go out to find out, when suddenly the white camel seemed to have discovered some danger, made a few strange grunts, and ran out of the door quickly. The white camel ran out of the door, turned around again, and kept making grunting noises, as if warning Lian Xing to tell its master to run away quickly. Lian Xing secretly wondered: Could there really be some evil spirit in this courtyard? There was a strange smell in the courtyard.Da Kui felt cold all over, as if some monster was approaching him in the dark. Lian Xing looked around with his eyes, his eyes were as bright as cold stars.Suddenly his whole body shook, his eyes stopped under the big tree, and he remained motionless.Da Kui saw that Lian Xing's expression was different, so he couldn't help looking where Lian Xing was looking.Da Kui's gaze was also firmly attracted immediately, and a chill surged up from the soles of his feet.

I saw under the big tree in the courtyard, a few steps away from the big tree, a bag of soil was slowly bulging upwards. The soil bag surged up for a while, then stopped to rest for a while, and continued to surge up after a while.The dirt bag is getting bigger and bigger, and it seems that an evil spirit is digging out from the ground bit by bit. Da Kui felt his heart trembling, and said anxiously: "Lian Xing, what should we do? I think it's better to drag Jackson and run away. It's bad luck to stay here." Lian Xing's eyes flickered, and he whispered: "Let's wait for a while, let's see."

Da Kui said anxiously: "Stay a little longer, and you won't be able to leave even if you want to." Lian Xing remained motionless, and Da Kui was secretly worried.I saw that the bag of soil was getting higher and higher, and it had already gushed out of the ground for more than three feet. Lian Xing and Da Kui hid in the hall, their eyes firmly fixed on the dirt bag slowly rising up.There were two other people in the same mood as them, who were looking at the dirt bag in fear. They were the "third brother" and the burly man among the corpse chasers.The two people were attacked by the strange fragrance, their bodies were sore and weak, but their minds were still clear, they just couldn't move.

The two of them watched the foreign objects in the soil bag come out little by little, and they were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. Time passed by every minute and every second, and suddenly, under the stares of everyone, the earth bag split open in all directions, and a huge eight-foot-tall monster suddenly appeared in the earth bag.The monster's hands and feet were covered with long black hairs, and its huge head was as big as a dustpan.There are no eyes on the head, and only a large mouth occupies most of the face. The monster opened its mouth wide, and there were bursts of stench from the mouth, making people sick.

Da Kui suddenly saw the monster coming out of the dirt bag, and almost exclaimed, Lian Xing stretched out his hand like lightning, and covered his mouth, Da Kui didn't make a sound. The monster opened its nostrils, sniffed around, turned around, and walked towards the burly man. The burly man couldn't move his whole body, he was so frightened that his soul flew out of his wits...
