Chapter 238 Death Hatching
Dark clouds were turbulent in the sky, and it seemed like it was going to rain.
Everyone rushed to the altar.
This altar is not a common stone building, but made of wood and straw. It looks extremely simple, just surrounded by three concentric circles.
On the wood, there were solidified dark red blood stains, forming a strange symbol.
In the middle of the concentric circles, there is a wooden stake as thick as an arm, with a birdman made of straw impaled on it.
The feathers on this birdman are exactly the same as those on the giant birds that we just encountered. However, because they have not been repaired for a long time and are exposed to wind and rain, they look very miserable, like a drowned rat.
"What to do now?"
The light and luxurious man looked at the straw bird: "Pray to it?"
Everyone stared at the altar warily, with some confusion on their faces. Disappointed, they actually wanted to see a portal through which they could exit.
"Don't touch it!"
Lin Baici warned.
The wind picked up, and light rain fell from the sky. It hit my face and felt cool.
"Lin Shen, it's moving!"
Li Junsheng suddenly roared, startling everyone.
"What moved?"
The Qingshe man stiffened and looked nervous.
"The birdman's eyelids seemed to move?"
Li Junsheng was not sure either.
“Its eyelids are sewn shut, how can it move?”
Zeng Guoxue acted as if Li Junsheng was a coward and made a scornful comment to contrast his boldness.
This is a scarecrow bird man. The torso and limbs are human-like, but the feet are in the shape of bird claws, and there is a pair of wings on its ribs.
It has a bird head, which is round and small. The beak is very long and is a big hook shaped like a crow's beak. Its upper and lower eyelids are roughly sewn together with hemp thread.
In this case, there is nothing wrong with being careful, so everyone focused on the straw bird.
“Moving!”
"I saw it too!"
"Fuck, it feels so evil!"
Everyone became nervous instantly.
"Lin Shen, why don't you...leave here?"
Little Xianya was very scared.
Lin Baici shouted a bird's egg in her mouth, which made it easier to talk. The same was true for Xia Hongyao, so she got annoyed and put her right hand in front of her mouth, preparing to spit out the bird's egg first.
“Buyao!”
Lin Baici muttered, with quick eyes and quick hands, he covered the mouth of the high ponytail. He was worried that once he spit out the eggs, he would be considered a failure by the rules, or disuse.
Gu Qingqiu immediately squatted down, took the dagger Lin Baici gave her, and wrote on the ground.
“Don’t spit out the eggs, wait and see first!”
Gu Qingqiu didn't let Xia Hongyao write down her findings because she felt that with her high ponytail IQ, there shouldn't be any major discoveries.
Everyone followed the direction indicated by the fat bird monster and found this altar. It should be of some use.
Gu Qingqiu circled around the altar, then bent down, got through the railing, and walked towards the straw bird, preparing to take a closer look.
Her action immediately attracted everyone's attention.
“How brave!”
The Qingshe Man lamented that he would not dare to let him go anyway.
Xia Hongyao was worried about Gu Qingqiu's comfort and immediately followed him.
The two people stood in front of the straw bird and looked at it. Suddenly, when Gu Qingqiu looked into the eyes of the straw bird, its pair of stitched eyelids snapped, breaking the thick threads, and opened It opened, revealing a pair of rotten eyeballs, and there were even maggots crawling slowly inside.
“Be careful!”
Xia Hongyao reached out instantly and wanted to pull Gu Qingqiu behind him, but Gu Qingqiu was steady and was not frightened.
Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
The straw bird's rotten eyeballs turned irregularly a few times before staring at Gu Qingqiu.
Wow!
A bird-man with a translucent body, as if his soul had shed its shell, suddenly walked out of the straw-tied bird-man and floated in front of Gu Qingqiu, face to face with her.
“Don’t fight!”
Gu Qingqiu's upper body leaned back slightly, not because he was afraid, but because he was not used to being approached.
Xia Hongyao was about to take action, but when she heard Gu Qingqiu's words, she quickly stopped.
“Holy shit!”
“What the hell is this?”
“Run!”
Others were not as bold as Gu Qingqiu. The moment they saw the birdman ghost appear, they turned around and ran, but stopped again after running more than ten meters.
The main reason was that Lin Baicilin's thigh did not run away.
When the birdman ghost saw these uninvited guests running away, it immediately opened its mouth and emitted an ultrasonic wave.
Just like the ripples created by a stone thrown into the lake, a circle of ripples appeared in the air, growing in size and quickly spreading around, sweeping everyone.
Obviously no sound was heard, but everyone’s heads were shaken, as if they had been hit by a violent sonic boom. They all showed painful expressions, could not stand still, and screamed. Fall to the ground.
Little Xianya's legs were so frightened that she went weak and immediately came to Lin Baici's side, hugging his arm tightly.
Many people's eardrums seemed to be broken, and blood flowed from the ears.
However, a small number of people were okay. Lin Baici took a look and found that they all had bird eggs in their mouths and escaped this sonic attack.
“Thank God!”
The young luxury man was so excited that he cried. Sure enough, he believed in Lin Shen and had eternal life.
The birdman ghost looked around, his eyes passing over the people who had not fallen to the ground, and then continued to stare at Gu Qingqiu, reaching out and pinching her cheek.
Gu Qingqiu guessed what the monster was going to do and opened his mouth.
The birdman ghost saw the saliva-stained bird egg in Gu Qingqiu's mouth, let go of her, and floated towards a young man who fell to the ground.
“Why didn’t it look at me?”
Xia Hongyao was puzzled.
"Shh!"
Gu Qingqiu signaled Xia Hongyao to stay quiet.
The birdman ghost floated in front of a young man with short hair, pinched his cheek, and gave it a squeeze.
The young man opened his mouth.
The birdman ghost didn't see the egg, frowned, then stretched out his hand and inserted it hard into the young man's mouth.
Click!
Like a red-hot iron rod driving into a piece of cheese, the arm of the birdman ghost easily inserted into the young man's esophagus, more than a foot deep.
“F*ck!”
When everyone saw this brutal scene, their whole bodies were numb from head to toe, and they broke out in a cold sweat.
Ah!
The young man screamed, his mouth was split open, and blood spilled on the clothes on his chest. He struggled, but to no avail.
The Birdman Ghost took out his hand.
The young man immediately fell to the ground and climbed far away with a face full of pain, trying to escape.
The birdman ghost did not see the egg and called out to the young man.
Bang!
The young man's head exploded and blood flowed out, soaking the fallen leaves and soil.
The drizzle falling from the sky hit our faces, making everyone feel even colder.
Many people were trembling.
The ghost of the birdman floated towards Qingshe Man. After seeing the bird eggs in his mouth, he let him go.
Everyone looked pale, some were thankful, some were regretful, because the situation was already obvious. As long as there were bird eggs in their mouths, they would not be attacked by this bird-man ghost.
"Fortunately, I listened to Lin Shen!"
Brother Rocket's face was full of luck that he had escaped. Not only him, but also the other people who had taken the bird eggs wanted to give Lin Shen a try at this time. Bai Ci knocks one, the kind that makes a sound.
“I, Xiaolin, am number one in the world!”
Xia Hongyao shouted in his heart, not panicking at all.
Another unlucky guy fell to the ground, and the birdman ghost put his hand into his throat to check if there were any eggs.
After confirming that there was no such thing, the birdman ghost screamed, and the unlucky man's head immediately exploded, and the skull flew more than ten meters away.
“Run!”
Xia Hongyao shouted, she was also convinced, this made it clear that she was going to die, so what are you waiting for?
Run quickly and get the eggs.
Some people did not want to wait for death, so they endured the pain of ruptured eardrums, got up, and stumbled away.
The birdman ghost glanced at them and did not chase them, because no matter how far they ran, if they wanted to leave this forest alive, they would eventually come back.
The atmosphere around the altar was very depressing.
Everyone was like playing a real ghost game, not daring to move at all, waiting for the birdman ghost to call his name.
The birdman ghost floated in front of Brother Rocket.
Brother Rocket didn’t want this monster’s arm to be inserted into his esophagus. He took the initiative to open his mouth and begged for mercy vaguely: “I have bird eggs!”
Click!
He spoke too hastily, and the shell of the bird's egg was too brittle, and a small dent was made by his teeth.
The color on Brother Rocket's face faded instantly, and his body was shivering like chaff. He looked at Lin Baici for help.
The Birdman Ghost saw the bird egg crack with his own eyes, became furious, and screamed at Brother Rocket.
Bang!
Brother Rocket's head exploded like a rotten tomato, and blood rose into the sky, mixed with drizzle, and sprinkled everywhere.
Boom!
The headless corpse fell to the ground.
"It turns out that even if the bird's egg is broken, it won't work!"
Everyone was panicked because they didn't know if there were any cracks on the bird's egg in their mouths.
The birdman ghost floated in front of Little Fairy Tooth.
Gudu!
Xiao Xianya swallowed and hugged Lin Baici's arm tightly.
Zeng Guoxue was so jealous that he almost vomited blood. He wanted to stand in front of Little Fairy Ya, but seeing dead people one after another made him panic in his heart, and he couldn't take two steps forward.
Lin Baici patted Little Xianya on the shoulder, then hugged her again, giving her warmth and signaling her not to panic, but Little Xianya was still trembling.
Lin Baici reached out and patted Little Fairy Ya's chin gently: "Open your mouth!"
Who knows how strong the birdman ghost's hand is?
Let it pinch its cheeks. What if it breaks the egg? It's better to open your mouth and show it.
Little Fairy Ya opened her mouth cautiously, praying with all her heart that the bird egg would be fine.
The Birdman Ghost looked at it for a few seconds and then left.
Little Xianya's legs lost strength and she fell to the ground. Lin Baici's quick eyesight and quick hands caught her.
The birdman ghost walked around in the crowd, checked once more, and confirmed that everyone had bird eggs in their mouths. After killing the three people with cracks on the eggs, he got back in. In that straw bird.
The big stone weighing on everyone's hearts was instantly released.
“What to do next?”
Xia Hongyao looked at Lin Baici, waiting for an answer.
Everyone else also looked at Lin Baici longingly. He was not dead, but he couldn't hold this egg in his mouth and waste it here, right?
Lin Baici didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, the egg in his mouth seemed to move.
What's going on?
Could this be a baby bird about to hatch out of its shell?
“Xiaobai!”
Hua Yueyu tugged at Lin Baici twice, asking him to look quickly.
Lin Baici turned around and saw that the young man wearing Nike shoes was beginning to grow feathers. (End of this chapter)
