Everyone turned to look over, only to see an extremely horrifying and absurd scene.
Fang Jing's originally bumpy body deflated visibly to the naked eye, and small branches sprouted from her blood vessels and skin, swaying in the wind.
Miao Jie covered her mouth and pulled Chang Qing back. Qin Musong's face turned cold. He took a broom from the side and picked Fang Jing's body.
Only some shriveled flesh and bones were left on the corpse. The sight of grass sprouts growing out of the pores of the corpse was particularly breathtaking.
"Is this a tree god or a tree spirit..." Song Guoqiang, who was helped out by Wang Yang, was so frightened by this scene that he muttered, but no one answered.
Yes, this doesn't look like something a serious god would do.
Everyone looked at the pile of bones and fell into deep thought.
When Cheng Miao and the others who went out came back, Fang Jing had completely turned into a dense bush.
If it hadn't been for a few clothes, he would have been unable to recognize that this person was actually a person.
After listening to Lin Zhu and the others explain the whole story, Cheng Miao didn't waste a second and invited the village chief with him.
The village chief was confused at first, but after seeing the human-shaped haystack on the ground, his expression changed.
"What...what's going on?!"
Cheng Miao saw that the village chief's panic did not seem to be fake. She said in a calm voice, "This is one of our companions. He has been in a very bad state of mind for the past two days. This is how he behaves today."
Cheng Miao didn't mention the conflict between them. The village chief stamped his foot, "Is she disrespectful to the tree god?"
Cheng Miao thought about the words, "She... doesn't really want that grass ring and wants to throw it away."
The village chief slapped his thigh and said, "That's it."
The village chief felt that these people were companions, and no matter what happened now, it was the village's fault.
Although few of them showed any sadness, he still lowered his voice and said, "My condolences."
Licking his chapped lips, the village chief added, "You may not understand the god in the mountains. He is not a righteous god. He has a temper."
"So there will be taboos and anger. There was such a thing in the village."
The village chief did not ask for the stool Qin Musong brought him. He squatted on the ground and recalled, "It was a young man who had returned from working outside. His parents believed in tree gods. He thought it was a scam."
"The young man was very angry. He scolded the tree god at the entrance of the ancestral hall and turned into a ball of grass the next day."
The village chief looked at the few people with ugly faces and added cryptically, "The gods in the mountains are all kind and punished, so they have believers."
Cheng Miao glanced at the village chief in surprise. After several contacts, the village chief seemed to have received a certain amount of education.
He believes in the tree god, but he also knows that this thing is different from the real god.
"You are dead now. Go back early. No investigation is more important than life." The village chief patted his clothes and stood up and told everyone.
Players feel miserable because they want to leave, but if they leave, they will not be able to complete the dungeon mission.
"She brought it upon herself, and we won't do it." Chang Qing is now a model of giving both kindness and power.
First, when his health improved, he felt that the tree god appeared. Then he was frightened by Fang Jing's tragic situation, and his belief in the tree god took a higher level.
He doesn't plan to leave anyone now.
Cheng Miao glanced at Chang Qing, turned around and nodded to the village chief, "Village Chief, this investigation is very important. We can't leave now. We must be careful not to cause any trouble to you."
The village chief rubbed his hands and said, "We are not afraid that you will cause trouble. The main thing is that... people are dead. There are no dead people in our small village. You are from a big city. This is amazing."
Ma Yang glanced at Zhu Cong's face and added, "We all knew that an accident might happen before we came, and we all signed a liability waiver."
"Oh...oh." The village chief didn't know what a liability waiver was, but he probably knew that the village would not get involved in a lawsuit.
Then let them go, he can't kick people out.
After repeated instructions, the village chief shook his head and left.
Cheng Miao glanced at the sky that was starting to darken and said, "You should still have dreams tonight, so try to remember them."
Several people who received the grass ring nodded, but Zu Gehan didn't care. His little robot had already prepared the meal and took it out.
He sat down and ate without even looking at Fang Jing's body.
Everyone ate in a hurry, and a few others took out the dry food given by the villagers outside and ate about it. As soon as it got dark, they all returned to their rooms.
Cheng Miao was lying on the bed and calculated that today was the fourth day of entering the dungeon and only two people had died.
One is done by oneself.
another……
I also did it myself.
The only ferocity revealed in the current copy is the tragic scene after Fang Jing's death, but Fang Jing's situation is too special, and no one will be as brainless as her.
So as of now, it is still uncertain how the copy will be carried out.
But taken together, it may cause players to get sick.
This is a very troublesome thing, which is equivalent to weakening the player's combat effectiveness. The longer the time is delayed, the harder it will be to get out.
The best way is to find the source of the tree god and do it in one fell swoop.
Or answer the question.
Both of them are unrealistic now, and one impulse will lead to Fang Jing's fate.
Cheng Miao just fell asleep in his complicated thoughts.
Cheng Miao seemed to have had a dream without any memory, but he was very tired when he woke up.
It only took her a few seconds to wake up, and she touched her wrist calmly.
Sure enough, a prickly and crisp grass ring appeared inexplicably on her hand.
She immediately turned back to look at Qi Jiajia and Qiu Dong. Qiu Dong rested his head on his hands and looked at Cheng Miao quite leisurely as he took her hand and looked at it carefully.
After seeing Qiu Dong and Qi Jiajia receiving grass rings, Cheng Miao let out a breath.
Her guess was right.
There is another more troublesome thing. Lin Zhu and Qin Musong are getting worse.
Lin Zhu's face turned a little pale and he felt dizzy.
Qin Musong's cough was not that serious, but his coughing was much more intensive than in the past few days.
She doesn't feel any discomfort for the time being, and Qiu and Dong are no different from usual times.
She looked at Qi Jiajia, whose face was a little red.
I tried it on and found that the temperature was higher than usual, but not to the level of a fever.
Her heart sank, and she went out to get a basin of cold water and wiped Qi Jiajia's face.
After struggling for a long time, others also got up.
No one said anything because everyone who had not received a grass ring before received one last night.
This proves that Cheng Miao's idea is right and that they are about to follow in the footsteps of the first batch of people who got the bracelets.
"How is it? Do any of you remember what you dreamed about last night?" Cheng Miao looked at everyone hopefully, but got an answer that chilled her.
Everyone said they had no dreams yesterday.
Zu Gehan drank a mouthful of well water, his Adam's apple rolled, and when he saw Cheng Miao looking at him, he nodded and said, "It is true that I was not dreaming."
Cheng Miao looked at Xiao Xiaolin again, "Did anything come to our room last night?"
Xiao Xiaolin shook his head firmly.
No!
He squatted all night and found nothing!
