563 Take it off when you say it, leave when you say it
A cool breeze blew past, and the grass swayed rustlingly, seeming to bring with it a bit of loneliness.
The puppet master had already left together with the sand girl. Even if he stared at him, he disappeared in the blink of an eye under the dim white fog. He didn't know where he went. Only the empty grassland was left as far as the eye could see.
On the far horizon, there are faintly undulating mountains with one peak after another, vaguely turning into a gray-green color.
Lin Sanjiu sat on the grass, stretched out one of her long legs, and pressed her feet firmly against the face of a "little girl", preventing her from moving forward even half a step - as soon as the puppet master left,
The Queen of Soul suddenly ran towards Lin Sanjiu, startling her.
"What do you want?" She felt that her whole body, including her spirit and mind, were exhausted. "He released you, and you just left. Why did you come to me?"
She remembered that among the soul clan's abilities, there was a "chemical hormone" that could make people comatose; after being reminded by Teacher Yi, Lin Sanjiu used a [Protective Force Field] to cover her head, face, mouth and nose firmly.
.
Half of the Queen of Soul's face was stepped on by a foot, and a deep hole was suddenly ripped out of the other half of her face.
"Why do you have no credibility in what you say?" The little girl's lips were now livid, and there was a piece of entangled red meat twisting inside, and she made a harsh and angry buzz: "We will follow that guy and fight him.
However, we can’t run away. After several years of hard work, we finally see you, so you’re going to let us go?”
Time passed, and Lin Sanjiu no longer needed these souls to deal with the puppet master - because they were obviously no match for the puppet master. She was in no mood to care about whether the soul clan could have children, so she simply asked
:"if not?"
The Queen of Soul's sudden anger almost caused her to slip out of her human skin.
However, she is worthy of being the queen of her clan. After thrashing hard twice, she quickly controlled herself - lowering her voice, the Queen of Soul asked in a low voice: "Don't you want to know where Doctor Cat is?"
Lin Sanjiu immediately took her feet off its face, sat up straight, and said doubtfully: "You know...?"
With half of the shoe print on her head, the Queen of Soul sneered with a lively expression: "Of course. I can also see it. The puppet master seems to want to exchange Doctor Cat with you for something, but you refuse to exchange it.
You want Doctor Cat back again—right?”
Lin Sanjiu looked at it noncommittally.
"...Call your friend who can modify your body, and when you see her, I will tell you the location of Doctor Cat."
Lin Sanjiu immediately snorted from his nose and stood up from the ground.
"Hey, where are you going!" The Queen of Soul suddenly became anxious.
"If you really knew where Doctor Cat was, would the Puppet Master let you back? Besides, even if you really knew, as we speak, he would probably have moved Doctor Cat to another place and locked him up.
." Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything, and just continued: "If you can lead me to find Doctor Cat, I will take you to see my friend... Otherwise, you are of no use to me if you want to follow me.
It’s a bit difficult to negotiate terms.”
After saying a few words, Lin Sanjiu turned around and walked away.
Just a few steps out, a short shadow suddenly jumped up from behind - Lin Sanjiu had long been prepared for the Queen of Soul to become angry, so she jumped away, already holding the [Nostradamus] in her hand.
card].
However, nothing was absorbed on the card. Instead, the Queen of Soul's next words made her stunned.
"Where did you find another soul?" The pale-faced little girl's eyes widened, her eyeballs completely bulging out, looking scary: "...Why don't I know the existence of this soul?"
"Soul?" Lin Sanjiu was startled, and then he realized what he was doing. He quickly removed half of Brother Tudu from his back with his hands and feet, and threw it to the ground - unable to move, he was like a stone.
It smashed into the grass with a muffled sound; a pair of eyes were pierced by blades of grass, but they still turned and looked at the Queen of Soul.
"Is this a soul?" Lin Sanjiu repeated, knowing immediately that this was impossible. "No, he still has normal human structure in his body!"
The Queen of Soul and Ayu both came up, rolled their four eyeballs together, and stared at Brother Tudou on the ground. The puppet master must not be very considerate. They looked like they hadn't changed into human skin for a long time.
The body bag had been stretched loosely, and when he lowered his head, the entire scalp and hair immediately slid forward.
"It's really... strange. If you look closely, this thing is indeed not a soul."
The Queen of Soul glanced into Brother Tudou's abdomen and pressed on one of his exposed, white vertebrae. Brother Tudou's eyes also moved in the direction of it, but it was a pity that he could neither speak nor speak.
His expression made people wonder how he felt about this.
"Then why do you think he is also a soul?"
"We survive by constantly emptying out living things and putting on their skins," the Soul Queen replied without raising her head, "so we are very familiar with the skins. Whether something is a living thing or not can be determined at a glance.
I feel it.”
Brother Tudou is not a living thing?
"But I can't turn him into a card," Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but retort, "This shows that he is alive. What's more, before he became like this, he could talk and walk, and he was no different from a human being."
"I'm better at identifying skins than you are, but you are better at telling the truth than you are." The Queen of Soul interrupted her immediately, "I said he was not a living thing, but I didn't say he was dead."
"What's the meaning?"
"He is alive, but he is not a living creature." This sentence made people even more confused. Probably noticing Lin Sanjiu's confused face, the Queen of Soul continued to explain: "Take your
For that friend, if she created a piece of meat, it could breathe, have a heartbeat, and the blood would flow, but it had no will, no thinking, and no consciousness - would this piece of meat be considered a living thing? Is it alive?
Are they alive again?"
"Probably not a living thing. But this guy has a will..." Lin Sanjiu said with doubts.
The Queen of Soul did not answer her, as if this question was also bothering her. She lowered her head and murmured "No, I can feel it, I can feel it" while carefully flipping it back and forth.
Brother Tudou’s body.
Brother Tudou couldn't move a muscle, so he could only watch helplessly as he opened his mouth and opened his eyelids. When the Queen of Soul also opened his belly, he jumped up suddenly.
.
"This guy," the little girl with a ponytail turned around and asked loudly, "did he have genitals before he became like this?"
How do I know this?
Lin Sanjiu sighed and glanced at Brother Tudou, who was getting worse and worse - the latter was bumpy all the way, and most of the internal organs in his stomach had fallen off, leaving only a cavity: "...Ying, it should be
have it?"
"Interesting!" The Queen of Soul's eyes lit up.
Before Lin Sanjiu had time to ask, the little girl suddenly lowered her head, her face trembled, and she began to feel tired from the skin on her forehead. By the time she came to her senses, the Queen of Soul had already covered half of her body.
They were all shed out of the human skin - a large crimson humanoid worm rolled and twisted onto Brother Tudou's body, with many white "tendons" faintly exposed from the flesh, and dripping mucus all over the ground.
"You couldn't have said it first!"
Even though she had already seen the true nature of the Soul Clan, after all, it had been several years, and when she saw it again, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but twitch the muscles on her face, and turned her eyes subconsciously. But soon she
He forced himself to turn back and asked the crimson worm that was burrowing into Brother Tudou's body: "What are you going to do? He's become like this, you can't wear it anymore, right?"
"Her Majesty the Queen said," it was the expressionless Ayu on the other side who answered her: "She knew that this flesh-skin bag must also be worn by something, and the way it was worn was different from ours. After we devoured the internal structure of the creature,
Although a similar structure will be generated, this structure will never include the reproductive system. In other words, at most it is just a piece of skin hanging between the legs, but it is of no use."
Brother Tudou's mouth was stretched to an unbelievable size. His mandible must still be dislocated, his lips were deeply torn on both sides, and his facial muscles were torn open all the way to his ears; but even so, compared to a
For a human-sized soul queen, this hole is still too small.
Looking into his eyes that were still conscious, Lin Sanjiu had never felt so sympathetic to an enemy.
Probably because the Soul Queen was busy drilling holes, Ayu did all the talking: "Her Majesty the Queen said, this guy is different. His flesh and skin sac looks like a living and complete human body and reproductive system.
It should be complete... If Her Majesty the Queen can get in and figure out what's going on inside, then it will be great luck for our family."
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but shudder. She was simply disgusted by the sight in front of her.
Logically speaking, now that the Queen of Soul's attention has been distracted by Brother Tudou, it is a good opportunity for her to escape. However, Lin Sanjiu not only did not move, but sat down on the spot - in addition to being curious about Brother Tudou's identity
, she really couldn't think of anything else she could do besides looking at the matter in front of her.
Do you really want to find the gift bag? Who knows if the puppet master is following behind? What she is facing now is almost a dead end. She can't beat the puppet master, not to mention that there is a sand girl standing behind him.
; If it drags on, I don’t know what will happen to Doctor Cat and the gift bag.
On the other hand, if she figured out what was going on with God, she might still have a chance.
But even though she figured it out, it still made her extremely uncomfortable to watch the Queen of Souls burrowing into people's bodies.
It changed its usual method of entering the body from the back of the head, and squirmed little by little into Brother Tudou's mouth; as it went deeper, its thick body writhed more violently, and Ayu on the side even squirmed.
He came up and completely ripped Brother Tudou's face apart - with a "hiss", Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but scratch his face several times.
A huge flesh worm gradually formed a deformed and squirming bulge in half of the human body; while drilling, the Queen of Soul's body suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but jumped up immediately.
Ayu also frowned. After a few seconds, she said hesitantly: "...Queen, Her Majesty the Queen said that she found that there is something in this human body that is different from ordinary humans."
"where is it?"
"Inside the skull," Ayu answered quickly this time, "Her Majesty the Queen has removed his mandible and front facial bones, but under the skull, there is no brain, but only a small compartment made of bone fragments.
."
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat and she walked closer - but she couldn't tell anything except Brother Tudou's thick black hair.
"Her Majesty said the bone fragment's compartment appears to have been smashed, collapsed together and stuck."
"Stop talking nonsense and quickly open it and take a look!"
This time, even Lin Sanjiu couldn't care less about her nausea; she called out a knife and helped Ayu cut open the soft forehead skin of Brother Tudou——
The next second, something flashed between the skin and the body of the soul, and rushed out.
As soon as it entered the air, the thing seemed to melt instantly and was completely invisible. There was only a sound of wind that cut through the air, and it rushed out from in front of it and rushed straight into the sky - Lin Sanjiu reacted extremely
Quickly, as soon as he jumped up, a force of consciousness was already catching up with him, filling the air like a net.
Almost at the same time, she felt her consciousness move slightly, as if it was wrapped around an invisible thing; however, the thing not only did not stop, but instead carried her forward quickly with an unexpectedly powerful force.
Towards the sky - with the naked eye, it was as if she had suddenly learned to fly.
Amidst the sound of the wind, Lin Sanjiu only heard a vague shout from the ground, which seemed to be ayu; then, she felt her ankle sink, lowered her head, and her whole body tightened: It turned out that the Queen of Soul used her own
His tail kicked off the ground and actually grabbed her ankle, and was now wriggling up her leg with a hissing sound.
Even with the added weight of such a heavy flesh worm, the invisible thing still rushed towards the white mist with one person and one soul without slowing down at all - almost in a few breaths, they disappeared together.
