Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 172: The joy of fruit farmers

The subtle scream came from the snake-faced man's throat. Lin Sanjiu almost thought he heard it wrong because of the thick layer of snake skin. She looked up and saw the apple protruding into a spherical shape on the snake-faced man's neck. As the spherical shape quickly slid down, the screams became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared into its abdomen.

Cold sweat suddenly covered Lin Sanjiu's forehead.

The sound just now seemed to have alerted several other snake-faced people not far away - they looked in this direction, and then immediately moved, everyone's eyes narrowed, and they let out angry lows. , while rolling his lower body quickly, he moved to the tree where Lin Sanjiu was.

Compared with the others, the snake-faced man who just ate the apple looked smaller. Surrounded by several taller snake-faced men, he seemed a little uneasy - he kept nodding. The head and the snake's tail on the other end are also raised, and they move together bit by bit in the air, as if they are apologizing.

...What? Are these apples not allowed to be eaten casually?

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but have this idea. She was just about to crawl closer to take a closer look, but she didn't expect that a snake-faced man suddenly turned his head without warning and stared at this branch - his yellow eyes, which were about the size of a room, had no emotion at all. There was a vertical pupil standing on the ground, facing Lin Sanjiu.

She was so frightened that she immediately fell down on a branch and hid behind a rough and protruding bark, hoping that the other party would not notice her.

The vertical pupils are slightly taller than her.

Looking out from the gap in the bark of the tree, I saw that the cold transparent yellow stopped for a while, so I didn't turn away. I probably didn't find Lin Sanjiu, who looked like a little ant. The sounds belonging to the snake-faced people were still coming in high and low waves - Lin Sanjiu was deafened by the shock, and at the same time he couldn't help but secretly feel happy.

After a while, the noise gradually subsided.

Even if you don’t understand the language of the snake-faced people, you can still get a general idea from their actions: the little snake-faced people who stole the food were expelled to the other side far away, and they could only rub their hands back and forth, and their eyes Gloomily, he watched the other snake-faced people busy picking apples.

They obviously have a set of standards for apples: some were picked, and some were left on the trees. I don’t know if it’s because they are not mature enough or not big enough. Anyway, in Lin Sanjiu’s eyes, They were all so big that they were boundless.

After picking the apples from the tree, the snake-faced man was not in a hurry to eat them. He just piled them all on the ground and formed a small pile. Another snake-faced man ordered them one by one, probably counting them.

Seeing the snake-faced man in charge of picking apples swinging his snake tail and swimming towards another tree, Lin Sanjiu quickly ran to the end of the branch on his hands and knees——

On the branch where she was, two apples were well preserved.

Since there were no leaves on the tree, Lin Sanjiu had no shelter. When he was about to get close to the apple, he had to lie down and crawl forward. The closer she got, the more frightened she was by the special fleshy texture on the apple's skin.

...The trembling, flesh-like apple skin will occasionally undulate when there is no wind, and a few pores will be vaguely exposed, and then disappear again.

Lin Sanjiu swallowed, reached out and touched it lightly.

"Haaah!"

" Ah ha, ah ah, save, save..."

Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at the apple in front of her, the hairs all over her body stood up - where she touched, several vein-like things quickly emerged from the flesh - along with the roots There were protruding veins, and the voice sounded even hoarse. Even men and women could not distinguish between them: "...Huha, help..."

No matter how hard the people inside try, they can only say "help".

When the snake-faced man swam back and forth, the slight tremor caused by the ground suddenly stopped - Lin Sanjiu's rationality suddenly returned to his cage, and he quickly glanced not far away and saw the mountain-like figure. As expected, the shadow seemed to be motionless, and he hurriedly rushed to the fleshy apple, and said in a low voice: "If you want to be rescued, shut up!"

Meat Apple gasped for a few more breaths, obviously unwilling to shut up - but it seemed that it had exhausted all its strength and was still unable to make any more noise.

Feeling the ground tremble again, Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is there someone trapped inside?" She murmured to herself, her voice so low that she could hardly hear her. "But this apple looks like it's solid..."

Would you like to cut the apple open and take a look?

She thought a little hesitantly.

Just when Lin Sanjiu was a little unsure, she suddenly felt a light shine on her body.

... She had always been very careful. Even if there were no leaves to cover her, Lin Sanjiu always stood behind the other apple, hiding herself in the shadows. But at this moment, the huge shadow cast by the apple suddenly lifted up, and the light instantly enveloped her whole body.

Someone took away the apple.

She turned her head stupidly and came face to face with a tall vertical pupil.

...This time, the snake-faced man definitely saw her, right?

Lin Sanjiu suppressed her desire to scream and slowly took a step back, not daring to look away from the vertical pupils for a moment.

After taking a few steps, the vertical pupil did not move with her movement - it was still facing the direction of the two apples, as if looking for the source of the sound just now.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and quickly retreated deeper into the branches.

...If he managed to escape this time, Lin Sanjiu swore that he would wait until the snake-faced man left before coming out.

However, things didn't go as planned.

The apple, which still had a few veins left, suddenly started to fluctuate again - the skin-like skin trembled rapidly a few times, and after the apple bulged into the shape of several muscles, the voice hissed again with all its strength. It screamed, and this time, it shouted more content: "Ahh... come and save me... lie, liar... I feel so much pain..."

Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat and she screamed.

Obviously the meat apples cannot be seen!

The snake-faced man was standing next to the apple at this time, and the sound was immediately clearly captured by it - the long five toes curled and stretched in the air, and with a "pop" sound, he pulled the fleshy apple that kept screaming. Pulled off.

Meat Apple let out a chilling cry of pain, and seemed to realize that it had fallen into the hands of a higher-level creature in the food chain. Its fleshy skin trembled at a high speed, making people dizzy: "No...ahhh, huh... ...Don’t kill me... There was another person here just now, she——"

It finally managed to speak fluently, but before it could finish a sentence, it just clicked and was broken in half in the hands of the snake-faced man, and there was no sound at all.

Lin Sanjiu felt as if one of her nerves had been cut off - she covered her mouth and did not dare to move, a long-lost fear welling up in her heart.

From where she was, it was actually not clear what was in the meat apple. The dripping "juice" dripped down the snake-faced man's hand and fell to the ground, which attracted her attention - the unique crimson color of human blood was mixed with pieces of meat, as if it had just come from Fallen from the apple.

The status of this snake-faced man seems to be far higher than that of the little snake-faced man just now; even if he broke open an apple casually, the snake-faced men around him just looked up at it, what? Didn't say anything.

It licked half of the apple in its hand, and its long and forked tongue was like a spatula, instantly shaving off the fleshy apple.

After eating a mouthful of fruit pulp, the snake-faced man tilted his head and stared at the apple in his hand, wondering what he said. The snake-faced man who had been holding the ball of light in his hand hurriedly came forward, hissed a few words, and welcomed the one eating the apple away.

Seeing that they were all gone, Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath.

After the scene just now, she did not dare to rush out rashly again; fortunately, the bark of the tree was uneven, so it was not difficult to find a crevice to hide in.

"Just wait until they leave..."

Lin Sanjiu thought silently.

The activity of the snake-faced man harvesting apples did not last long - many fleshy apples were obviously not ready for harvest yet, so the snake-faced man left them on the branches and left with a bunch of picked ones.

As the snake-faced man walked away, the light disappeared. The darkness seemed to suddenly remember this lost territory, and came back in one fell swoop, once again covering this space so tightly that no one could see it.

Lin Sanjiu huddled in the groove of the tree bark and waited for a long time. After she confirmed that there was no more sound around her, she cautiously got out.

The bright light of [Ability Polishing Agent] can only illuminate a distance of four to five meters; on such a giant tree, such a faint light is only slightly better than nothing. After walking through several empty branches in a row, Lin Sanjiu became anxious - at least she had to figure out what ~IndoMTL.com~ was all about before she could figure out what to do next, right?

She quickened her pace and walked through two more branches. Finally, in the corner of the silver light, she saw half a blurry shadow of an apple in the distance.

"I finally found it..." Lin Sanjiu rushed over and said to himself: "It's better to be quiet here!"

As soon as she finished her sentence, a hissing sound suddenly sounded from nowhere, breaking through the darkness like thunder.

"Sure enough...that apple didn't lie..."

It seems that he is not yet proficient in this way of speaking. Every word that Lin Sanjiu is familiar with is mixed with a strange and strange hiss. Unable to stop her hands from shaking, she reluctantly raised the violently shaking silver light and saw the speaker's face clearly in the light.

The deeply split mouth was embedded in the face of the little snake-faced man, as if to express that he was very satisfied at the moment.

"There are...really...someone here." r1152
