Chapter 51.
I don't know how I left the Lu family, my mind was muddled, all the way, I didn't even know where I was.
I still can't believe my current condition in my heart, I touched my body, I can still have some touch, it's not different from the usual feeling.
But in my head, I just don't want to believe this fact, after so many things, I was haunted by the hair ghost, possessed by the residual soul, and even buried alive by my mom, I survived. But is just so one thing looks and before the situation can not compare at all a scene, I died!
Walking on the street, no one could even see me, and those who passed through me would involuntarily shrink their necks, as if once upon a time when I was penetrated by those ghosts!
I walked forward aimlessly, not knowing where to go. Legend has it that when you die, the black and white perverts will come to take you to hell, but I was alone, and there wasn't even one person who could hear me.
I thought of Ding Ding in my heart, and wondered if he felt the same way when he died, that no matter how big the world was, he didn't have a place to call his own. No matter how many people there are in this world, they feel that they have nothing to do with themselves.
Thinking of Tintin, I suddenly wanted to go back to the old mansion, maybe now everyone is a ghost, although I don't know if he will still linger there, is that I can't say I can see him.
This thought came strangely, because when I went back before I hadn't seen Ding's shadow, no matter whether it was the corpse, or his soul, I hadn't seen it. But perhaps because I couldn't stand this excitement of me being dead for a while, it always felt like that was the only place I could think of, and the only place I could still hope for.
I don't know how long I walked, I always felt that my feet were soft and had no strength, and when I saw the old mansion, it was basically already dark.
This kind of old street was usually very cold, and now there were even fewer people. There would only be a street light for a very long distance, and in between were large sections of darkness, and occasionally I heard a sound of a dog barking, which was a bit appalling in this dark night.
But on second thought, I thought, now it should be my turn to scare others, I am in this state, what is there to be afraid of?
I walked towards the old house, but walked for a while, suddenly found some wrong place, stared a look, only to see the old house was lit, although the light is very dim, but it is indeed from the home out of the doubt!
My heart was tight, think how could there be someone at home?
But on second thought, my mind automatically filtered out a lot of people, and I subconsciously felt that it might be Ding Ding, as if I was deceiving myself and others, thinking that he might be waiting there, waiting for us to find him.
I walked quickly towards my home, with some vague expectations in my heart, as if I had been wandering for a long time and had finally found a place to call my own!
But when I came to the door, I wanted to run through the wall and towards the door, but I was hit with a raw pain.
I covered my nose in pain, and felt that I was seeing stars in my eyes, squatting in front of the door and slowing down for a while, I realized that ghosts also hurt, I used to hear the screams of the hair ghosts and Xie Ning and their screams, and always wondered about this, but now I really don't have any doubts about this.
I slowly stood up, reached out and touched the wall, and found that the wall was hard, not at all like other things that could let me pass through, I don't understand what is the reason for this, but more or less think that it may have something to do with my mom, I don't know whether or not she got some kind of anti-ghost thing for the house when she was alive.
I could only push the door in, but as soon as the door was pushed open, I immediately regretted it before I even had a chance to take a last look around the house.
I hadn't even crossed my feet into the house before I saw the sphinx tree in the yard!
Almost the instant I opened the door, the human-faced tree instantly roared, and I saw its branches continue to grow wildly, the entire trunk of the tree twisted, and countless human faces instantly emerged from the branches, twisting and grimly roaring!
The scene was a hundred times more lurid than the last time I saw it with Tintin. Moreover, I was basically unaffected last time, but now the situation was completely different, those branches grew insanely for a distance, as if they were whips, and rolled over towards me standing at the door!
That momentum, there was really a feeling that a thousand armies couldn't stop it! I was so stunned that I even forgot to run away!
As if the branch had its own consciousness, it snapped and hit me in the chest. I was in so much pain that I just remembered that Tintin had said that the Sphinx Tree was equipped to suck souls, and I stupidly forgot about it!
Countless branches have come towards me, as if a net, spread on the cover down, I can even clearly see those branches on the human face, one by one with a weird oozing smile, looking at my gaze, as if it is as if to see the food that can make them nourished!
I can't even dodge a little bit, instantly by the branches of the tree rolled, above the human face open mouth, one by one tearing the flesh on my body, I was sweating from the pain, reach out towards those faces hit the past, but this punch down, even I feel raw pain in my hands!
Those faces weren't soft and fleshless like before when I touched them, now they felt as if they were corpses, somewhat hard, no matter how hard I pushed, they just wouldn't let go! It was as if they wanted to swallow me alive before they could do so.
I screamed in pain, my entire body was lifted up by the branches and moved over towards the trunk bit by bit.
Suddenly I saw that the center of the trunk was cracked open, and inside was a black, dark place where I couldn't see anything clearly, but it gave me the feeling that it was like another bigger mouth, surrounded by branches that were its teeth, waiting there to eat me as if I were food!
I anxiously struggled up, but this human face tree is incredibly powerful, I was no match at all, even the human faces on the branches were the same, they were unusually excited, biting the skin and flesh on my body almost fell off.
I glanced towards the house and realized that there was someone inside with a candle lit, I just couldn't see clearly who the person in the house was. In my desperation, I could only yell up towards him, expecting him to come out and help me!
But no matter how miserable I shouted, that person seems to hear my voice, I feel like my life is over, so unexplained death not to mention, become a ghost but also be used as a human face tree food, I do not know that after I was swallowed, will also become a face on the branches of the tree, every day in addition to wailing, can only wait for ghosts and monsters to send to the door, and then bite by bite nibble.
Although I've never eaten a ghost, I'm sure it tastes bad, even if it disappears completely, but beating me to death I'm not willing to become a puppet of this tree!
My hands and feet are now tied by the vines, my body is still constantly being bitten, my heart is ruthless, I can't care about anything, I opened my mouth and bit towards the nearest tree trunk by my side, the entrance is a putrid cool smell, making me almost vomit, but I can only forcibly hold back, wanting to bite this section of the branch off!
But this struggle of mine is really futile, because I simply have little time left, just now to drop a small bit of wood shavings, the person has been sent to the trunk of the tree above the crack, by this branch dragged, hard to stuff inside!
By this time, I had almost despaired, and I didn't know if the ghost had some method of self-spiritual dissipation so that I could just dissipate without having to attach myself to this tree with a human face. But even if I knew, it was already too late!
I closed my eyes, and in my heart, I was hoping that it wouldn't hurt so much when I was eaten by this tree, but just at this time, I suddenly heard a drinking sound coming from the house.
This voice was very familiar to me, I should have only heard it not long ago, it was my brother-in-law!
My little will to live was raised again, and I was busy shouting towards the house for my brother-in-law to come and help me.
He opened the door and poked his head out of the room, giving a puzzled look towards the tree.
I kept waving my hand at him, and the shouts from my mouth never stopped! But my brother-in-law looked very cautious, even if that expression had a very comical look on his fat face.
He didn't immediately rush out from the house, but instead, his eyes turned and looked around the yard for a week, seeing that there were no other conditions, before he pushed the door and walked out, coming underneath the sphinx tree and watching the tree's odd movements.
The distance between him and I was only one meter, I was hanging upside down in front of him, I reached out to try to tug him, but just a little bit short of reaching, remember I could only continue to scream at him begging him to help!
But my brother-in-law's reaction was very strange, he didn't even look at me, he just walked around the tree in a circle, as if pondering something in his eyes. After a few seconds, he suddenly cursed and said, "You crazy tree, there is no ghost in the neighborhood, what are you doing at night!
After saying that, he suddenly raised his foot towards the root of the tree, I saw the land under, a few red lines were brought up by his foot, which is still Ding Ding left something before.
Brother-in-law took out the fire engine, toward the red line, the thread brush burned up, and surrounded the shape of the quadrilateral.
This human face tree previously also a fierce appearance of the momentum, this fire together, suddenly a whimper, those crazy branches suddenly shrink back, even the human face above also suddenly shrink into the tree.
The bindings on my body suddenly loosened, and I directly fell out of the air, and fell on the ground, which hurt unbearably, but in my heart, I was finally relieved, at least this little bit of soul was preserved.
I slowly climbed up from the ground, look at the body that was bitten by those human faces, fortunately, fortunately, surprisingly, there are signs of recovery, let me very pleased.
I turned towards my brother-in-law to say hello, but I didn't know that he ignored me, settled down the human face tree, and directly walked towards the house. I was afraid that he would leave the tree and start to go crazy again, I was busy following him, reaching out to pull him, but who knew that I would actually pass through him as well.
I watched as my brother-in-law winced, suddenly alert, turned around and drank, saying who's here!
When I heard this I felt very wrong, thinking could he not see me at all, but my brother-in-law is obviously someone who can control ghosts, it is impossible for this to happen.
I tentatively reached out and shook my hand in front of his eyes, and even took the risk of trying to poke his eyes, but my brother-in-law did not react at all, and seemed to really not see me.
I don't know whether to be happy or sad in my heart, completely unable to figure out the current situation ……
