I don't know if the snake-faced man can hear it, but Lin Sanjiu's ear drums are filled with the sound of his own heavy breathing.
It seemed like even the blood was numb.
"Where did the green onions come from?" The cracks on the snake-faced face deepened, forming a deep, dark, canyon-like smile.
It was obviously very novel about the language that came out of its own mouth. It rolled its forked tongue and actually showed a little interest in continuing the conversation: "You, say."
——Lin Sanjiu never expected that this snake-faced man could actually speak human language.
Even though she knew it was an accident, her regret still swallowed her heart like a poisonous snake - it would have been better if she had not touched the fleshy apple at that time! It was so reckless!
What should we do now?
Seeing that she didn't respond, the snake-faced man couldn't stand it anymore - its coiled snake tail quickly opened, and its body rose higher and higher. A pair of vertical pupils as tall as a person were staring at Lin Sanjiu.
"From...where?"
Lin Sanjiu felt a chill in her heart, but her reaction was faster than her thoughts. She immediately put away the polishing agent, turned around and ran away under the sudden cover of darkness.
However, as soon as she took a step, something hit her hard in front of her, as if she had been hit by a meteorite. The branches that had been stable under her feet suddenly trembled violently, knocking her to the ground.
Lin Sanjiu hurriedly called out and saw that a black shadow like a bridge was crossing her head. The other end branched and was now piercing into the bark of a tree not far ahead - it was the tongue of the snake-faced man.
.
If she had run faster just now, she would have been the one who was pierced and crushed.
A huge drop of saliva suddenly fell down and hit Lin Sanjiu. She was instantly soaked. It was just a drop of saliva. But the force was so strong that even the skin all over her body was slightly painful. If
This snake-faced man wants to attack her——
Lin Sanjiu couldn't think of what she should do.
"I, I came out of the tree..." Unable to run or fight, she wiped her face and had no choice but to speak. Maybe there could be some turning point in the conversation: "...Why did you say what we said?"
Obviously not every snake-faced person can speak human language - otherwise Lin Sanjiu would not be alive until now, because he would be found when the fleshy apple makes a noise.
It seemed that only the snake-faced man understood, so he quietly came back after everyone left.
Hearing the answer, the black shadow like a bridge above his head swung back. Such a big thing was so fast that people had no time to react - because it was too close, Lin Sanjiu couldn't see its full expression. She just listened.
The snake-faced man hissed, "Tree? Weird...impossible."
But he didn't answer her question.
She was shocked by the loud noise at close range, rubbed her ears and said, "I didn't lie to you, I really came out of the tree."
The two tall vertical pupils turned back and forth, looking even more penetrating in the silver light.
"Impossible... all the nutrients should have been absorbed." The snake-faced man stared at Lin Sanjiu and stopped moving, as if he was also preventing her from suddenly escaping again. "Why are you... not here?
Apple? Where are you from?"
Nutrients? In apples?
Although he had a vague premonition, Lin Sanjiu was still cold all over.
"Nutrition refers to... us humans?" she stammered, feeling as if she had asked nonsense.
However, unexpectedly, the snake-faced man denied it.
After sticking out the tip of its tongue and uttering a syllable similar to "no", it seemed to be choosing words and making sentences. After a while, it slowly said: "The tree bears fruit, and the fruit contains nutrients. What I eat is not nutritious.
Poor...but I understand what you said."
——No, it doesn’t mean what I imagined, does it?
Lin Sanjiu was almost stunned.
"Some fruits are good, such as -" This was the first time the snake-faced man talked to a creature other than the snake man, and he seemed to have some fun. When it said this, it made a very complicated syllable with its tongue, which felt like a human being.
Name: "... After eating one, she will glow. Some of them are not good. After I eat them, she can understand the words."
"Each fruit has different nutrients. The leader eats the best."
Even if the snake-faced man didn't quite understand what he said, Lin Sanjiu understood everything immediately.
In a sense, these apple trees are a "reprocessing machine". The flesh and blood of the evolved people are mixed together here and turned into fleshy apples that grow one by one - each fleshy apple.
It probably condenses and integrates the abilities of the evolver. After the snake-faced man eats them, he will gain the corresponding abilities.
In the concept of snake-faced people, nutrients are of course not human beings, but the abilities of human beings.
In this way, it is easy to explain why meat apples can still talk - I think the apple tree must keep them alive in order to retain the ability of evolvers. Are they just living in human form, or are they a mixture of flesh and blood from multiple different people?
After being together, living as apples is no longer their concern.
And the apple that this little snake-faced man secretly ate before might happen to contain a language communication skill.
Thinking of the missing Rabbit and his friends, Lin Sanjiu's heart was so excited that she wanted to look at every branch right away - but she couldn't even move.
"You... said it came out of the tree." The snake-faced man spoke again, and the buzzing sound made his body tremble. "Could it be that the nutrients in the fruit are all things like you?"
"That's right!" Lin Sanjiu was slightly surprised that it had never thought about the source of nutrients, and then said with luck: "I just want to find a few of my friends. As soon as we find someone, we will immediately
Just leave, it will definitely not affect the apples you eat... okay?"
When she was drifting among the roots, she had thought about saving as many people as she could, but now she has long given up on this unrealistic fantasy.
Lin Sanjiu would be satisfied as long as he could rescue Rabbit and his friends... However, the snake-faced man tilted his head slightly, looked at her, and said nothing for a while.
The deathly still air, surrounded by thick darkness, seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
Lin Sanjiu became more and more nervous. She quietly put her hands behind her back.
After a long time, the snake-faced man finally spoke up.
"Being able to escape... a tree is very powerful." Its speaking speed was still so slow, and its body suddenly began to sway from side to side. "If I eat you, I will be very powerful. I will become the leader!"
x Your mother - Lin Sanjiu just couldn't help but cursed a rabbit, and the vertical pupils in front of him suddenly rose. Almost at the same time, a black shadow shot out from the snake-faced man's mouth, straight
Attack her.
Lin Sanjiu finally experienced a little bit of what it felt like to be hit head-on by the Golden Gate Bridge——
There was a loud bang. The tongue pierced deeply into the bark of the tree. Immediately, debris flew all over the sky and the ground shook. Fortunately, Lin Sanjiu had been prepared and rolled out a long distance on his hands and feet. He hid in embarrassment.
"You think you're so big that I can't do anything about it?" She spat fiercely. Seeing that the tongue was attacking her again, she really had no choice but to jump up and jump to another place not far below.
On a branch.
Her feet were almost off the ground. The place where she was standing was shattered into pieces - the familiar slime splashed out and drenched her all over like rain.
Hiding like this is not an option. It would be better if we were still here——
Just when he thought of this, Lin Sanjiu was suddenly shocked and hurriedly opened his card library.
When searching for things in the Eden Laboratory, she almost took whatever she saw. Later, they were unified into cards, so that she even forgot some things. She glanced at the cards in her hand and suddenly had an idea.
At this time, the offensive behind her stopped, and only the ground continued to vibrate. It seemed that the snake-faced man was surrounding the tree, looking up and down for her traces.
Because Lin Sanjiu was hiding behind a branch, just in the blind spot of the snake-faced man's sight, and in order to avoid becoming the only rake in the darkness, she had already put it away. At this time, it was pitch dark, and the snake-faced man was also affected.
had an impact.
"Where...? It's so annoying, I want to crush you to death..."
The long tongue hissed back and forth on the bark of the tree. Just when it was getting impatient, a group of silver light suddenly lit up on a branch, and then disappeared immediately - this short moment was enough to scare the snake's face.
The person caught it, and the long tongue shot towards the place where the light was.
However, in the next second, something unexpected happened to the snake-faced man.
The tongue seemed to have penetrated something shrouded in mist, and a hot and stinging pain that it had never experienced before suddenly traveled all the way up the tip of the tongue - the snake-faced man hissed fiercely for half a sound, and subconsciously retracted his long tongue.
It reached the mouth, and then no more sound came out——
It fell headfirst to the ground, clutching its thick snake neck with both hands and struggling silently. The long snake body couldn't help but roll on the ground, causing several apple trees to tremble slightly and even fall down.
A few fleshy apples - After a while, the vibration like a small earthquake finally slowly subsided.
The black shadow representing the snake-faced man lay motionless on the ground like a mountain.
From a branch, a small silver light shone. The light could not shine very far and was already blurred. Lin Sanjiu looked at the shadow like a hill in the distance with fear and waited for a long time.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked down at the recycling device in her hand and smiled bitterly.
The simple trap just set up was indeed effective. The snake-faced man really stuck his tongue into the small piece of purple mist that was formed - the smoke immediately adhered to it and was taken back into the body along its tongue. I'm afraid
This recycling device will no longer be used.
Once the snake-faced man's struggling and hissing disappeared, the space immediately returned to a dead silence, and the thumping heartbeat sounded so clear.
Time is running out, Lin Sanjiu thought secretly. We must quickly find a way to find Rabbit and his friends and escape before other snake-faced people discover this body. (To be continued)
ps: Thanks to the great willow leaves in winter, the traffic has really surged in the past two days. I am happy and scared at the same time. Hey, I am afraid that new readers will find it objectionable...
What makes me sad and happy is that the fairy little fat cat actually rewarded He Shibi and Pink. I am really grateful! But while I am excited, I can't help but think that in this way, I already owe 6 more chapters...
…
I would also like to thank Baoying Pavilion Master for his peace charm, She Jingbing’s peace charm, book friend 110212142600924 for his peace charm, and Xiao Bai Qiang’s peace charm~!
Thank you all for your encouragement. This book is actually not very popular, and in many places it is a bit too heavy-handed (face covering). I am really flattered to be so loved by everyone!
In this case, I decided to add an update tomorrow~ Let’s rush to the third world in one breath!
