Chapter 43 Old acquaintances,

bait, bait...

one goes and one falls...

The driver's words, like a spell, lingered in his mind.

"Master, I'm worried..."

Bai Lingyan interrupted him.

"Are you worried that I'll fall there?"

Although Chen Sheng didn't say anything, his behavior had already acquiesced.

Bai Lingyan said,

"Don't worry."

Chen Sheng watched the way home getting closer and closer, and kept praying in his heart.

An hour later,

the car stopped at the east end of the village.

At this time,

it was dark.

Chen Sheng said,

"This is our village."

"Every time I run here, they don't chase me."

"Follow this road and go to the fork in the road. There is a road leading to the foot of the mountain." "

They have been taking that road these nights."

Bai Lingyan nodded.

"Let's go."

The driver, Master Liu, was a little scared. It's hard

to say how dark it is around, it just seemed a little dark.

But the feeling of cold and damp is obvious.

In addition, the surrounding mountains are connected to the mountains, and the lush vegetation looks dark.

It seems that something will jump out of it at any time.

Birds chirped and cicadas chirped alternately.

Or there was a sudden "thump" in the bushes, like some small animal jumping.

Or the leaves shook suddenly.

Or there might be a "crunch" from stepping on a branch.

In short,

the quieter the place, the more obvious these messy sounds were.

The driver was so scared that his eyes kept turning around.

Wherever there was movement, he immediately looked there.

Like a frightened bird.

Bai Lingyan turned his head.

"If you are scared, you can wait in the car."

The driver: !!!

"No, no, no!"

"I'll follow you."

Wait in the car?

He was afraid that a ghost would climb up the window again.

He was scared to death in the car.

The safest place now is next to this gentleman.

He must follow him closely!!!

The driver followed Bai Lingyan closely.

He was afraid that he would fall behind.

Chen Sheng led the way in front.

As he walked,

he suddenly stopped.

The driver: !!!

"Why, why, why don't you leave?"

Chen Sheng raised his hand and pointed forward.

He whispered,

"Look, they are going up the mountain again."

Bai Lingyan looked up.

Those people were one after another, as if they were queuing up.

There was black mist coming out of their bodies, and their souls were being pulled by an invisible force.

And their abdomens were the source of the black mist.

Combined with what Chen Sheng said about the leaves they had eaten before.

Then the main source of the black mist was that tree.

Bai Lingyan said,

"Go with them."

Chen Sheng nodded.

Continue to act as a guide in front.

The driver was almost scared crazy.

His eyes unconsciously looked at the soles of the feet of the group of people.

But he found that those people were on their toes and didn't look like living people at all.

He was so scared that he covered his mouth directly. He

didn't even dare to breathe.

Dark sky, queuing, going up the mountain, it looked like the ghost soldiers passing by!

When the three of them walked over.

The two people at the back seemed to have noticed something and turned back to stare at them.

Seeing this, Chen Sheng stood there and didn't dare to move.

The driver's foot took a step forward, but he didn't dare to land for a long time.

Bai Lingyan looked at them.

The two turned their heads and continued to walk forward.

Chen Sheng: !!!

He thought they would come to catch him again.

And he was ready to escape.

The three followed behind, all the way to the foot of the mountain.

They also saw the strange tree that Chen Sheng mentioned.

The tree was indeed very big, with its branches and leaves fully spread out like a big black umbrella covering the sky and the sun.

And humans really looked very small in front of it.

Then,

this group of people with expressionless faces and unblinking eyes, one by one, lay down in the pit under the tree.

With their hands on their abdomens, they closed their eyes peacefully.

It was like lying in a coffin.

This scene

was no different from the existence of a horror movie.

At this time, the sky was much darker than before.

Chen Sheng said,

"That's it."

"Every night they come here to lie down for a night." "They

go home around four or five o'clock in the morning of the next day."

The two simply saw them lying in the pit under the tree.

However,

in Bai Lingyan's eyes, it was the roots under the tree, tightly wrapped around those lying in the pit.

It sucked their blood and souls bit by bit.

He raised his hand and made a stroke.

Chen Sheng and the driver saw that they were not just lying in the pit.

Instead, they were surrounded by black roots that looked like living things, and their souls were floating above their bodies.

There was also something like white mist floating out of these people's bodies little by little, and all of it was absorbed by the tree.

The two had never seen such a scene.

Their legs softened and they fell directly to the ground.

They looked at the scene in front of them stupidly.

Chen Sheng: !!!

The root that he saw before that would retract was actually real.

And there were more than he saw.

Those wriggling roots were like earthworms sucking something.

Driver: !!!

I've seen nothing like this tonight.

He'll go around big trees in the future.

The two saw Bai Lingyan walking towards the tree step by step.

Chen Sheng just got up.

But he found that his feet were grabbed.

He thought it was the driver.

"Master Liu, don't grab me first."

The driver Liu had lost his voice at this time.

"No, no, it's not me."

The 1.8-meter-tall man was scared like a delicate wife.

Chen Sheng slowly lowered his head.

He found that a root was wrapped around his ankle.

!!!

Bai Lingyan looked back.

He threw two white talismans and stuck them on the foreheads of Chen Sheng and the driver.

In an instant,

the roots that were originally wrapped around their feet shrank back as if they had encountered a natural enemy.

The two looked at each other.

They pressed the white talisman on their foreheads, fearing that it would be blown away by the sudden evil wind.

This is their current life-saving artifact.

The closer Bai Lingyan got to the tree, the more the roots under the tree shook.

There was a hint of excitement.

Because Bai Lingyan's soul was so clean that it seemed to be touched by the aura of immortals. It

was more attractive than anyone here.

It couldn't wait to eat him.

When Bai Lingyan walked to the tree, the roots didn't even pretend.

Originally hidden under the soil, they now drilled out of the ground.

All went towards Bai Lingyan, trying to entangle him like they had entangled those people.

But when they were one meter away from him, all the roots exploded.

Because of the irreversible damage to the roots, the tree trembled three times in pain.

In the dark night,

the leaves rustled.

Bai Lingyan raised his hand and placed it on the tree.

There were two spirits in it.

One was the spirit of the tree itself, which was already dissipating.

The other was naturally his old acquaintance... the smiling ghost parasitic in this tree.

Bai Lingyan's lips curled slightly.

"I see wholesale ghosts again."

What a fate.
