Chapter 277 Grandma’s Cabin
The stench-filled smell in the tree hole that An Zhiyan hated before, now became her protective umbrella.
Hiding up the scent that originally belonged to her.
In any case, An Zhiyan is the second in charge of the Awakened Ones Association and a senior memory collector. Even in a panic, she knows how wolves pursue their prey.
Smell is important.
To cut off the smell chain, she had to either hide in the water, but she didn't encounter the river, or cover it up with other smells, and it had to be a strong and pungent smell.
Stink is the best choice.
That’s why she hid in this tree hole.
The werewolf was running quickly outside, searching, and the other party seemed to know that he was hiding nearby. Recently, the werewolf's claws were on the edge of the tree hole, which made An Zhiyan experience what it means to have a rapid heartbeat.
She didn't dare to move, let alone make any sound.
Even if she suddenly felt severe pain in her foot and knew that she had been bitten by some poisonous insect, she did not dare to move.
"It's broken, maybe it was bitten by that centipede!" An Zhiyan suddenly got goosebumps when she thought of this.
The bite was on the ankle.
And she was sure it was poisonous, because soon she couldn't feel that leg.
But An Zhiyan still didn't dare to move.
The werewolf is within five or six meters of the surrounding area. Any movement on his side may alert the other party.
Finally, the werewolf found nothing unusual, and the clouds above his head seemed to cover the full moon again.
The crisp singing sounded again.
“La la la la, I was walking alone on the path in the countryside. I brought the cakes to my grandma to try. She lives in a far away and secluded place. I have to be careful about whether there is a big bad wolf nearby. .When the sun goes down, I will rush home and enter sweet dreams with my mother."
The singing gradually faded away.
An Zhiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was already chilling all over and there was cold sweat on her forehead.
One leg completely lost feeling. She knew she had to detoxify immediately, otherwise she would definitely die.
As a memory collector, she is not afraid of death.
In the past cycle days, she had died many times, in various ways, and she had long been accustomed to it.
But it’s different here.
Because all the memory collectors who entered Fairy Tale Town before have disappeared, it means that even if they die, they cannot escape Fairy Tale Town.
So, she wants to survive as much as possible.
She used almost all her strength to crawl out of the narrow tree hole. During this process, she felt like she had participated in a marathon, and she was almost exhausted.
Finally climbed out and checked the wound.
The calf has turned black.
"Sure enough, it's poisonous!" An Zhiyan didn't panic. Her professional card was 'pharmacist'. Even in the Awakened Association, few people knew about this. They all thought she was a profession similar to 'doctor'.
Because there are many similarities between the two.
For example, it can heal and detoxify other memory collectors.
But in fact, An Zhiyan can do much more than that.
In the entire Awakened Association, there are only two people who know her true professional card.
Even among these two people, Lin Yixuan is not included.
The people who know about her professional cards are Yu Xiaoru and Aunt Qin.
The ability of [Pharmacist], in addition to being able to prepare [Healing] and [Detoxification], also has a more powerful card synthesis ability.
For example, she can prepare [narcotics].
This is the reason why she could suppress the hyenas alone before.
In addition, she can also prepare [Poison].
There are several types of [Poison] cards, generally there are three types: [Crippling Poison], [Paralyzing Poison], and [Lethal Poison].
She can even use several other cards to synthesize the very special card [Adrenaline].
This is An Zhiyan’s biggest trump card.
At the critical moment, a piece of [Adrenaline] is enough to allow her to ignore all injuries and toxins in a short period of time, and at the same time increase her combat effectiveness to the 'elite level'.
Of course, the side effects of using [adrenaline] are also very serious.
She will be unable to move for the next two hours and will remain in a weakened state throughout the cycle.
At this moment, An Zhiyan used [detoxification], healing and a small amount of [anesthetic] on herself.
This can relieve pain and numbness.
There are some claw marks left on the surrounding tree trunks. If you look carefully, you can see that the claw marks are very deep, indicating that the werewolf can easily tear through the skin and flesh of the memory seeker.
"So, what kind of fairy tale is this?" An Zhiyan took out some food cards, materialized them, and started eating to replenish her physical strength.
Now An Zhiyan's mind is still very confused.
But she knew that she had to find the correct one among these confusing clues.
"Lin Qiqi guessed it was more serious than anything, because Little Red Riding Hood was chasing her first at that time. As for Liu Rong and the hyena, they may be alive, but they are not trustworthy." An Zhiyan discovered that now she Became alone.
And he was injured.
This is already the worst case scenario.
"Then, will there still be characters from the original story here? For example, grandma, hunter and the big bad wolf." An Zhiyan thought about this fairy tale that has obviously been modified by magic. If the situation is normal, Next time she read this kind of dark fairy tale, she might find it interesting, but now, she doesn't find it interesting at all, because when she is in this magically modified fairy tale, she knows that fairy tales can be so terrifying and deadly.
[Detoxification] and [Healing] have taken effect. The legs that had been so numb that they had lost vision felt pain again, and the pain was quickly offset by [anesthetic], so although it was still painful, at least An Zhiyan had regained her ability to move.
In the deep forest, it is difficult to get a correct sense of direction.
Because we don’t know the specific location, even if we want to use the moon and stars in the sky to determine the direction, it becomes impossible.
For example, the moon here is very abnormal, too huge, and there seems to be no other stars in the sky.
Having no other choice, An Zhiyan could only choose a direction based on her feelings.
That is, the direction completely opposite to the direction Little Red Riding Hood left just now.
This should be the safest.
She started to take action, but her feet bitten by poisonous insects were still in trouble, so An Zhiyan found a branch as a walking stick. In addition, she kept holding a knife in her hand.
The flashlight function of the mobile phone can still be used, but she dare not use it.
The light in the dark forest will only become the target of attacks by certain dark creatures.
In addition to the knife, she also grabbed a [Adrenaline] that had been synthesized long ago.
At critical moments, she will use it on herself without hesitation.
It was difficult to find the road in the deep forest, and most of the time they were traveling on rugged ground. An Zhiyan spent a long time moving forward, replenishing water and food along the way.
Two hours later, she found a path. She walked along the path for another ten minutes and found a small house in front of her.
A wooden house with a strong fairy tale atmosphere.
It’s just that in this environment, this fairy tale-style cabin will only make people feel weird and scary.
But for An Zhiyan, this is a major discovery.
Whether good or bad, a discovery is better than no discovery.
And she made a judgment almost immediately.
"In the original story, the cabin in the deep forest can only remind people of one place. Grandma's cabin. If so, then this is Little Red Riding Hood's destination." An Zhiyan took a deep breath , she grabbed the card and the knife, and first walked around the house from a relatively safe distance to observe carefully.
The room was dark and there seemed to be no one.
An Zhiyan picked up a stone and threw it towards the house.
The stones hit the wooden wall and made a sound.
Wait!
Still no movement.
This time, she slowly approached, looked in from the side of the wooden house, and then through the window.
The room was dark and nothing could be seen.
The windows of the prototype were sealed and could not be opened. I had to go to the door to see, but with a slight pull, the door actually opened.
There was a creak.
It is especially obvious in the silent forest.
At this moment, An Zhiyan's heartbeat accelerated and her scalp became numb.
She even froze in place, waiting for her fate to be judged. In her opinion, the worst-case scenario was that a terrifying monster, such as a bloodthirsty werewolf, would be thrown out of the house and knock her down. , and then eat them alive.
She seemed to have heard someone say that the process of being eaten by wild beasts was very terrifying.
Because I am alive, I feel my body being bitten and torn, and then being chewed and swallowed into the stomach bit by bit.
In addition to the pain and powerlessness, listening to the sound of the other party eating me makes me feel even more desperate.
But what An Zhiyan was worried about did not happen.
There was no movement in the room.
She suppressed her heart that almost jumped out of her chest, swallowed, and looked carefully into the room.
There should be no one inside.
Otherwise, there would have been news already.
She walked in slowly and closed the door.
Thus, from a relatively silent environment, we entered a closed and even quieter place.
After all, the silence in the forest is the absence of the sound of wind, the swaying of leaves, and the sounds of various insects and birds.
But in this room, there is really no sound at all.
The room is warmer than outside, and there is a weird smell.
It is something moldy, mixed with a damp and very obvious rancid smell.
She lowered her body and stood at the door, grabbing the door handle. If necessary, she would open the door and run out immediately.
Slowly, my eyes adapted to the darker light in the room. The hazy moonlight outside the room shined into the room through the window, making it appear very bright.
She saw clearly what was going on in the room.
There is a bed over there.
It was messy and there seemed to be blood stains on it.
In front, near the fireplace, there was a small round table and a wooden lounge chair. At the next moment, her heartbeat, which had stabilized, once again started racing like boiling water, beating wildly. .
Because she saw someone sitting on the couch facing away from the door.
Under the recliner, a large pool of blood had gathered, but this pool of blood had long since dried up.
