Chapter 139, Doll Fruit


But before I could hit the opponent, my wrist was directly grabbed by this person. This person reacted very quickly. He turned his wrist and the diving knife in my hand almost fell off. Then a familiar voice came. , "Zhongyi, it's me, what's wrong with you?"

It was Mr. Mai's voice. I looked up and saw that it was really him. At this moment, I was covered in cold sweat, as if I had just taken a shower. .

My hand holding the knife was shaking a little, "Mao Lao, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I didn't know it was you, I was a little confused." Thanks to Mai Lao's reaction quickly enough, Otherwise I will have to stab him to death with this knife.

I quickly put away the diving knife, slapped my face hard with my hands, and slapped my mouth a few times, and I calmed down a little.

This ghost place is so scary. I have experienced so many fucking things. Even when I faced the two female corpses and the stabbing foal, I have never been so timid, but this place It's really like Jiao Ba said, full of evil and yin energy.

"What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?" Mr. Mai held my shoulder and tightened it.

Jiao Ba said from the side at this time, "Oh, Mr. Mai, you came at the perfect time. Just now, brother Yi said that he saw a person, he seemed to be some kind of skinny old man. This is not what we are doing. Are you going to look for me?"

"Skinny old man? Where did you find him?" Mr. Mai was also surprised, and his eyes became serious, as if he was shining.

"In the muddy ground in front, there were only footprints before, but then Brother Yi said he saw a person." Jiao Ba pointed back.

"Have you seen it?" Mai Lao asked him.

Jiao Ba quickly shook his head and said, "No, I didn't see it. I was observing other places."

I looked at Mai Lao and said, "Believe me, Mai Lao, what I said is true." Yes, there was indeed a person just now. Do you remember what I told you before? I saw a figure on the top of the mountain. I doubted it. That old man is him. "

Mr. Mai glanced at me, and then walked forward. Jiao Baliang and I followed closely. He walked to the muddy ground and squatted down. , Jiao Ba handed him a flashlight, he looked at it carefully and said, "There are no footprints in this place."

What? No footprints? Jiao Ba and I looked at each other and quickly squatted down to take a look. But after seeing it, we were both dumbfounded. All the footprints on the mud were gone. The previous row of chaotic and uneven footprints , just disappeared out of thin air.

"This is wrong, the footprints just now are still here." I still don't believe it. The footprints just now are clearly visible, but now it is just a piece of mud and there is nothing. What is going on.

"Yes, there are obviously footprints. This is what I first discovered. It can't be wrong. How could it suddenly disappear?" Jiao Ba stared at the mud and never moved his eyes away.

Mai Lao said calmly, "Are you sure? Didn't you make a mistake?"

"How is it possible to make a mistake? It's okay for one person to make a mistake. Could it be that both Lao Ba and I made a mistake? No. "I was a little angry, he obviously didn't believe us.

Mai Lao hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to be loyal. I didn't doubt you, but I can't find anything now. You said there was someone on the top of the mountain last time. Unless I go to the top of the mountain to have a look." "

I quickly waved my hand and said, "Come on, Mr. Mai, I'm not going to the top of the mountain. Let's go back quickly. Jenny and the others are still waiting for us to make a fire."

Mai Lao nodded and said, "Yeah, that's fine. We'll go back now, but we are still short of water. Being without water is worse than being without food. We should think of a way to see if we can find some water and go back."

Jiao Ba stood up and said, "In a place like this, there should be edible fruits. Let's look for them and use them. It can actually quench our thirst.”

The three of us searched around here. Except for those weird-shaped trees, I didn’t find anything edible. I even wanted to give up. Although I was very thirsty, I felt uncomfortable all over when I thought of that shriveled old man.

"Mr. Mai, Brother Yi, we have discovered something." Jiao Ba's loud voice suddenly came from nearby.

Mr. Mai and I ran over quickly. Jiao Ba was standing under a tree, raising his head and shining his flashlight on it. "Look, there is something on it. I wonder if it can be eaten."

I looked up along the light. Sure enough, there were many fruits hanging on the big tree, but the fruits were very strange. I had never seen such fruits in my whole life. They looked bright red on the outside, but they were very strange. I can't see the exact shape clearly.

"I'll climb up and get a few down." I pulled out my diving knife and was about to start climbing the tree.

Jiao Ba stepped forward and grabbed me and said, "Forget it, sworn brother, I'll do it, you're not in good health." After he finished speaking, he started climbing the tree.

Although Jiao Ba's movements were slower and his posture was more ugly, fortunately, Jiao Ba climbed up relatively safely. Jiao Ba was also smart enough. He didn't pick them off one by one, but used a knife. Just cut off the fruit-bearing branches.

In this way, the whole branch will fall to the ground with many fruits. I squatted down, picked a fruit and took it in my hand to look at it. This thing is very strange, except that it is red in appearance. , compared with other fruits, it is simply different. If you want to say something similar, the shape of this fruit is more like a baby face, and it is also a smiling face, which is very interesting to look at.

"Mr. Mai, what kind of fruit is this? I've never seen it before." I said to Mr. Mai while holding the baby-faced fruit.

Mai Lao also held one in his hand. After looking at it, he said softly, "It looks a bit like a ginseng fruit? But I remember that the ginseng fruit is white. This fruit is so red. It's strange. I don't know it either." Saw it.”

Jiao Ba climbed down from the tree at this time, "How is it? Can it be eaten?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, I've never seen anything like this. Come and have a look." "I threw this thing into Jiao Ba's hand casually.

Jiao Ba held it in his hand and stared at it for a long time. Ever since he saw the fruit, he had frowned. Now he took out a knife and made a small opening in the middle of the fruit. , as soon as the small mouth is opened, a red liquid flows out from the fruit.

"Holy shit, you're actually bleeding?" I said stupidly.

Mai Lao also looked at Jiao Ba with a puzzled look on his face. Jiao Ba stuck the red liquid with his hand, then put it on the tip of his tongue to try it. He nodded slowly and said, "Well, it's okay. It’s okay to eat it.”

“What on earth is this?” I still didn’t understand. He didn’t tell me what kind of fruit it was, he just said it was edible.

Jiao Ba looked at me and said, "I can't remember what it is specifically, but I seem to have heard of this kind of thing. It is a food similar to ginseng fruit, but there is still a big difference. , just wait until I remember it. Anyway, this thing is edible, so don’t worry.”

“What is it?” I always feel that this fruit is weird.

Jiao Ba said a little impatiently, "Are you annoyed or not? You don't care what it is, as long as you can eat it."

I glared at him and said, "Damn, what if I get poisoned by drinking it?" What should I do?”

Mr. Mai was smiling next to him. Said, "Haha, it shouldn't happen. Didn't Xiaoba try it just now?"

"That's right. I've already drunk it. What are you afraid of? Let's go back. They are still waiting. Here we are." Jiao Ba directly picked up the firewood and walked out.

Mai Lao and I picked these strange fruits, each of us hugged a pile, and followed Jiao Ba’s footsteps and walked back.

On the way back, I didn't dare to look around anymore. I was afraid of seeing the old man again. He gave me a feeling not only of unknown mystery, but also of a terrible murderous aura, like a ghost, which made people frightened. of.

Especially his orange cat eyes. Apart from this color, how come he is exactly the same as the cat eyes of the man in black? There was almost no difference. For a moment, I even suspected that he was the man in black with cat eyes.

But judging from his body shape and the unpleasant smell, he is very different from the man in black with cat eyes. The two are obviously not on the same level. He is skinny and as dry as firewood. But the man with cat eyes and black clothes was taller and taller, with a burly physique. There was really a huge difference.

Judging from the clothes he wears, he looks like a beggar, especially his messy hair, which is even more confusing. It is so messy that it makes people look like a lonely ghost. Same.

Except he is not the man in black with cat eyes, then who is he? It can't be the legendary savage, right? Could it be that...he has some kind of connection with the man in black with cat eyes? I can't understand it, and that's all I can do for the time being. I really can't think of a better reason.

I thought about what happened just now carefully and repeatedly. Did that shriveled old man live here all the time, or was he like us, in trouble and got here?

Moreover, why does he follow us all the way? If he wants to kill me, it should be easy, because I can hardly detect his whereabouts. He is so close to me that I can't even feel it.

If he really wanted to kill me, it would be easy. Or does he want to scare me deliberately so that we can retreat? There must be something wrong here. This wizened old man will never appear in front of me for no reason. This is obviously his intention.

What secrets does this weird island hide? There must be some kind of connection here, but I still can't figure out what it is. I suddenly felt that it was not a coincidence that we were able to land on this island. It seemed that there was an arrangement somewhere. All these problems would have to be returned to that huge underwater cave. If we had not been sucked into the cave entrance, There is no way to come to this desert island
