Abyss Notes [Unlimited]

In the forest, the beast walked slowly with its long tail.It has a melting face and a thick liquid dripping from its body.The liquid appeared to be corrosive, and where it passed, the ground turned black and vegetation withered.

The beast walked through the purple-black bushes and walked deep into the forest.Among the withered vegetation, there are fine golden flashes.Soon, these flashes lit up, and the golden buds grew and bloomed rapidly, and the milky white flowers gave off a strange strong smell.

Birds descended from the sky. They looked normal, but their heads were densely covered with small red eyes.They open their mouths and protrude suckers from their throats to suck nectar from the florets.The nectar made them drowsy, and each of them swayed as if drunk.

Bang - a loud bang!

The big palm slapped it in the air, and a hunched, hairy monster stood up from the bushes.It caught the sleeping bird, bit off its neck, sucked blood and ate meat.The monster's hair was messy, but it could vaguely look like a person, although there were countless inexplicable swellings and bones growing in the wrong place on its body.

There was a sound in the forest, and the monster turned its head suddenly.

Its facial features are completely misaligned, its eyes are vertical, and where the snout should have been, there are densely wriggling sharp teeth, and saliva flows from the corner of its mouth.

Staring at the dense forest for a moment, the monster didn't notice anything unusual.It lost interest, and while chewing the bones of the bird, it walked towards the direction where the beast left, whistling in its mouth, vaguely, as if talking.

Yu Zhou couldn't understand these languages.His heart was beating wildly, he covered his mouth and nose, and shrank in a cave that only allowed half a person to squeeze in.There are purple-black weeping vines outside the cave. He just made a noise, but he was not noticed.

He was not injured when he fell from the height.Fan Xing jumped down, spread his wings, and embraced Yu Zhou in his arms, all in one go.However, the thick tentacles that attacked An Liu also started to attack Fan Xing. Fan Xing dodged a few attacks, and when passing through the dense foggy forest, he suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

They fell on the tree, this precious buffer saved their lives, but it also made Fan Xing let go.Yu Zhou rolled down the hillside and passed out. When he woke up, he saw a strange forest around him. Fan Xing, Yugan and others were all gone.

It's a weird jungle.The tall trees were densely packed, and the sounds of various small animals came from the bushes close to the ground.

Whether it's the fog or the plants, they all have a strange purple color.Yu Zhou has carefully observed the leaves of the plants. Although the leaves are purple-black, they look normal at first glance, but when you turn over the back of the leaves, there are red spots like blood oozing.

Yu Zhou was very cautious.He remembered that Xu Qingyuan reminded him many times in the birdcage, don't touch or eat anything that is wrong, and keep a distance.But in the dense forest, all he could do was tear off a corner of his clothes and cover his mouth and nose tightly.

The most urgent task is to find Fan Xing.

After waking up, Yu Zhou endured the pain all over his body, followed his vague memory to move to the place where they fell, and then saw wild beasts, strange birds and monsters.

When the surroundings calmed down, he climbed out of the cave, and soon found several freshly broken trees.

There are obvious dragging marks near the big tree. Something fell here, and it is unknown whether it was dragged away or crawled away by itself.

Fan Xing was missing.

Following the traces, Yu Zhou walked slower and slower.The woods became more and more dense, and all kinds of wild beasts and monsters flitted through the darkness from time to time.

Yu Zhou hides for a while, walks around, runs away for a while, he is so tired that he can't breathe.Fan Xing was nearby, and he could feel Fan Xing's state: restlessness, confusion, and restlessness.

Something must have happened to him.Yu Zhou suppressed the panic in his heart, and pushed aside the thick bushes in front of him.

This is definitely not Bai Chan's "bird cage".It belongs to another cage owner.And just as Fan Xing and Xu Qingyuan saw: something is eroding this "birdcage", and all creatures are being infected and mutated.

Yu Zhou's heart shuddered: He suddenly remembered Bai Chan's words - in other "birdcages", unimaginable changes had occurred to the adventurers.

A lanky, skeletal monster walked not far away.The bones of its upper body seemed to have solidified at the moment of the explosion, and they poked chaotically on the spine.New heads grew out of the bones, the size of a fist, with eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and more than a dozen heads were speaking in unison.

"Someone...a stranger..." In the chaotic voice, there were occasionally a few words that Yu Zhou could understand, "Smell...I smell a stranger..."

Yu Zhou hid in the bushes, holding his breath.

A four-legged snake passed him upright, and Yu Zhou was startled: the front paws of this thing were human arms, and it was holding a silver-white scale.

The four-legged snake was obviously taken aback by him, and when they looked at each other, the footsteps of the bone monster approached.In an instant, more than a dozen four-legged snakes sprang out of the surroundings like a frying pan, all of which were strangely shaped.They were obviously afraid of the bone monster, and scattered wildly.

The four-legged snake in front of Yu Zhou also wanted to run away, but no matter how he ran, he stopped in place.It looked back, Yu Zhou held down its tail.Spotting the moment when the four-legged snake opened its mouth, Yu Zhou pinched its head, inserted his fingers into the four-legged snake's mouth, and blocked its voice.

The bone monster chased the four-legged snakes and ran away.Yu Zhou saw it pick up a four-legged snake and throw it into its mouth from a distance. Soon, a new head ballooned from its ribs, and it started to cry loudly.

Yu Zhou: "..."

He vaguely guessed the reason, but didn't dare to think about it.The so-called mutant adventurers...they used to live in the "birdcage" like this.

The four-legged snake struggled in Yu Zhou's hand, Yu Zhou snatched the scale and asked in a low voice, "Where did you find this thing?"

The four-legged snake opened its eyes and continued to struggle.

Yu Zhou didn't know if it could understand what he said, so he said, "It looks strange, with slender arms and legs, and such a thin neck...can it be broken?" He pretended to study, pinching the four-legged snake's head and neck.

The four-legged snake stopped moving immediately, and raised its small arm straight up, pointing in another direction.Yu Zhou saw that it was the place where the dragging trace disappeared.

The place where the four-legged snake took Yu Zhou was a pothole, and the traces of the drag just disappeared here.The side of the hole is covered with weeping vines, with purple-black leaves, taupe long stems, and small red flowers and fruits interspersed.Yu Zhou was still holding the four-legged snake and poked his head to look.

The entrance of the cave is not deep, it is cylindrical, and there are a few big stones piled up, like steps for easy access.Has anyone ever lived here?Yu Zhou finally got used to the light, and immediately saw a prone person in the corner of the cave.

The bone wings on Fan Xing's back had returned to the shape of his arms, his shirt was broken, and he remained motionless.More than a dozen four-legged snakes were lying on his tail, peeling off scales lively.

Yu Zhou's head was congested with anger, and he pinched the four-legged snake in his hand until he almost suffocated.He jumped down from the hole and kicked the four-legged snakes away.The four-legged snakes all have human hands and feet, standing up to the height of Yu Zhou's calf.They were afraid of Yu Zhou and ran away one after another.

Yu Zhou grabbed a vine, quickly tied up the four-legged snake in his hand, and immediately checked Fan Xing's situation.

Fan Xing was unconscious, with scars all over his body.He was protecting Yu Zhou when he fell from a high place, but was attacked for no reason, and he suffered many injuries.Yu Zhou probed for his breath, and his breathing was short of breath; he probed his chest again, and was surprised to find that Fan Xing's chest was scorching hot, as if he had hidden a handful of fire.Yu Zhou immediately remembered that Fan Xing's body temperature had risen like this when he first saw the "gap" in Fu Yuncong's city, and the heat source was obviously his heart.

"Fan Xing?" Yu Zhou called his name, but Fan Xing closed his eyes tightly without any response.

Yu Zhou hugged Fan Xing in his arms. Fan Xing was hot all over, and his loss of consciousness seemed to prevent him from turning into a human form. Although his body shape was the same as usual, his four arms and tail were all exposed.

The fleeing four-legged snakes gathered around Fan Xing and Yu Zhou.Yu Zhou yelled angrily to scare them away, and tore off the dry vine branches from the hole.Fujizhi crumpled into a big ball, he dug out the lighter from the corner of his pocket, secretly praising Xu Qingyuan who reminded them to carry the kindling with him.

Yu Zhou lit the vine branches, and the fire lit up. The four-legged snakes were so frightened that they jumped onto the boulders and escaped from the cave one after another.

Only the one tied tightly by Yu Zhou couldn't escape, trembling.

The fire brings some warmth to the pothole.Yu Zhou didn't dare to walk away, for fear that those four-legged snakes would come back again and continue to peel off Fan Xing's scales.But Fan Xing needs to cool down now, and needs water.There is no water in the cave.

Yu Zhou sat in the cave with Fan Xing in his arms, and suddenly saw the only remaining four-legged snake rolled to the ground.It crawled around on the ground, rubbing out a few strokes.

Yu Zhou took a closer look and found three crooked and extremely loose words: I'm sorry.

Yu Zhou: "..."

Although he guessed that the strange things might be transformed by adventurers, when he actually saw the evidence, Yu Zhou was still so shocked that his whole body got goosebumps.

Looking at the four-legged snake for a long time, Yu Zhou untied the vine, and the four-legged snake was free, quickly picked up the fallen scales on the ground, and put them back on Fan Xing's tail piece by piece.

Helpless, it has been a while since the scales were peeled off, and they dried out of moisture, and fell off as soon as they were pasted.There were several wounds on Fan Xing's tail, exposing flesh and blood.

The four-legged snake was startled and embarrassed.Of course Yu Zhou couldn't see any expression from its small reptile face, but the four-legged snake man bent its legs and knelt on the ground to kowtow to Fan Xing.

Yu Zhou: "Okay, okay." His heart moved, "Do you know where there is water? Bring me some water, it needs to be clean."

Hearing this, the four-legged snake hurriedly got up, nodded repeatedly, and rushed out of the cave like the wind.

Yu Zhou didn't think the four-legged snake would come back, but ten minutes later, the four-legged snake poked its head out of the cave.

Yu Zhou was overjoyed: "The water came back?"

The four-legged snake proudly raised the leaves in its hands.

Yu Zhou: "..."

The leaves circle into a funnel shape and hold two sips of water.

Seeing Yu Zhou not moving, the four-legged snake opened its mouth, took a sip, and passed the water to Yu Zhou.

"No, I didn't suspect it was poisonous." Yu Zhou took the water, a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to use this water for Fan Xing rashly, Xu Qingyuan's reminder was still in his ears.After thinking about it, Yu Zhou's heart sank, and he just raised his head and drank it himself.

The water is clear and sweet, without any peculiar smell.Yu Zhou sat quietly for a while, feeling that his hunger and thirst were greatly relieved, so he returned the leaves to the four-legged snake. "This is too little, not enough." Yu Zhou said.

The four-legged snake made a movement that only humans can do: it slapped its thigh, and then rushed out of the hole.

After a while, more than a dozen four-legged snakes rushed into the hole, all holding leaves rolled into funnels.The four-legged snakes took a sip before raising the water up, looking at Yu Zhou with teary eyes.

That night, the four-legged snakes ran no less than twenty times, carrying water for Yu Zhou and Fan Xing non-stop.They didn't feel tired either, they jumped up and down happily when they heard Yu Zhou say "thank you".

The night was extremely deep, and with the help of water, Fan Xing's body temperature dropped slightly.The four-legged snake caught by Yu Zhou stayed in the cave, curled up in a circle far away, and fell asleep.The other four-legged snakes left one after another, and the cave was very quiet for a while, only Fan Xing's heavy breathing could be heard.

The hole above the head is covered by four-legged snakes with weeping vines, and occasionally light birds fly by, making hoarse calls.Yu Zhou was worried about Fan Xing and had to be vigilant about his surroundings. Although he was tired and sleepy, he dared not close his eyes.

Noticing that Fan Xing moved, Yu Zhou immediately cheered up.He wiped off the sweat on Fan Xing's body, and Fan Xing opened his eyes.

"How do you feel?" Yu Zhou asked, "What else is uncomfortable?"

Fan Xing didn't answer.His eyes were flushed with a strange golden color faintly.Yu Zhou found that he was staring at him.

The next moment, Fan Xing grabbed Yu Zhou's hand.He opened his mouth, and Yu Zhou saw the sharp canine teeth in his mouth, which were only an inch away from his hand.The strong sense of oppression and crisis made Yu Zhou's hair stand on end.

Fan Xing frowned tightly, as if he was desperately trying to identify the person in front of him.

"...Are you hungry?" Yu Zhou asked, "Do you want to eat me?"
