Chapter 2: Ghoul and Corpse Tree

Then before the woman realized that the back of her head had been pierced, Lin Yu pulled out the dagger again.

The woman turned her head stiffly and looked at Lin Yu who was already rubbing the dagger with the bed sheet, and fell to the ground unwillingly.

Then the woman's skin, which was originally quite attractive, quickly dried up and wrinkled, as if the water in her body had been drained, becoming a mummy.

Lin Yu ignored the tiny heat flowing out of his body and walked out of the room, then went downstairs and headed towards the backyard.

Pushing open the back door of the manor, Lin Yu looked at a cypress tree on the edge of the flower field in the backyard.

This cypress tree is very tall, nearly ten meters high, but compared to other cypress trees in the backyard, it is not the tallest and largest, but Lin Yu noticed it at first sight.

The cypress that can be paid attention to by Lin Yu will naturally not be an ordinary tree. This is a corpse tree, and the cypress is just its disguise.

As for the woman who was just killed by Lin Yu in the room, she was a corpse ghoul that was accompanied by the corpse tree, and she was a relatively rare monster.

The reason why it is rare is that in addition to the fact that corpse ghouls must be accompanied by corpse trees, there are also corpse ghouls that feed on human corpses and have been encircled and suppressed on a large scale by demon hunters.

Lin Yu was standing ten meters in front of the cypress tree at this time, his right eye flashed red and then went out.

The cypress tree in front of him faded away in Lin Yu's eyes and showed its original appearance.

There are strangely twisted and spiral-shaped thick tree trunks, gray-white bark and jagged leaves on the edges. There is also a large hole under the tree that is bottomless and emitting the smell of corpses.

Lin Yu looked up and down the corpse tree, took out a kerosene lighter from his pocket, ignited the fire and got under the hanging branches of the corpse tree.

The cold air emitted by the corpse tree turned into a slight wind, instantly blew out the lighter's flames.

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, put away his lighter, turned around and walked back to the manor, muttering to himself: "I remember where the cellar came from..."

Soon, Lin Yu, who had gone back, returned to the backyard with two large buckets of swaying liquid.

After putting down two large barrels, Lin Yu returned to the manor without hesitation. After four trips, he proposed a total of eight huge oak barrels.

Arranged the oak barrels in front of the corpse tree, Lin Yu grabbed an oak barrel and posed for a shot put.

After a short period of two seconds of accumulation of power, the half-man-high oak barrel was thrown out by Lin Yu like a cannonball and smashed it hard on the corpse tree.

The oak barrel burst into pieces due to its huge force, and liquid with a irritating smell splashed out, spilling the trunks of the corpse tree.

Lin Yu paused for a moment, and saw that the corpse tree had no reaction, so he immediately threw several oak barrels out in succession.

Boom boom boom... Six roars sounded almost indiscriminately.

Look at the corpse tree again, the gray-white trunks are covered with bright and viscous oil.

Lin Yu rubbed the lighter grinding wheel, and orange-red flames suddenly appeared.

Slowly walking to the big hole of the corpse tree, Lin Yu's right eye emitted a scarlet light, as if he could see through the bottomless darkness and see the monsters hidden in the dark.

"Good night, Ms. Sally, I hope you enjoy this fire bed."

Before he finished speaking, the lighter in Lin Yu's hand spun on the tree trunk.

There was a loud bang immediately, and the flames soaring into the sky quickly climbed all over the corpse tree.

The hot flames dispelled the darkness and coldness around them. From a distance, the corpse tree burning with the raging fire was like a huge torch standing on the ground.

Just a few seconds after the flames ignited, a sharp hiss and a burst of footsteps suddenly came from the big hole under the corpse tree.

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, took a few steps back away from the tree hole, and pulled out the dagger, stopping his gaze on the tree hole.

With a scream, a thin monster with flames burning all over the body rushed out of the tree hole and roared at Lin Yu.

The monster was almost skinny, with gray-white skin like a corpse tree, no hair on its body, and his hands were twice as long as their legs. When moving, he crawled mainly on his arms and hind limbs.

On his bare head, there is an ugly face that makes people unable to eat at a glance, and a big mouth full of sharp teeth.

"Ms. Sally, your shouting so loud will make others sleep."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Yu was behind a mistake and skillfully used physical methods, which made Ms. Sally fall into a quiet sleep.

Lin Yu stepped on the back of the monster's head, put his right hand on his knee and used a little force, then pulled out the dagger inserted on the monster's forehead, wiped it and then closed the sheath.

Feeling the obvious more heat flow in the body than before, Lin Yu understood that this was the real person.

Lin Yu then found a stone to sit down, quietly watched the entire corpse tree being gradually burned into the ground by the gray-white powder, and then got up and took back the travel bag and left the manor.

Still leaping directly over the courtyard gate, Lin Yu walked under the iron plate marked with the door number.

This place was different before, there were already several smart and capable sheriffs standing up, and the leader looked much older, with white hair on his temples.

"Captain Jodifu, the manor has been handled completely, so I'll trouble you later."

Compared to when he first met Lin Yu, Qiao Difu had an extra temperament called vicissitudes. He nodded and said, "I understand, I will send someone to send you back to the city."

Lin Yu did not reject Jodifu's kindness, showed a gentle smile, and chuckled: "Okay, thank you."

Jodifu immediately assigned a young sheriff to drive Lin Yu back to the city.

On the way back, Lin Yu could find the sheriff who served as the driver, constantly casting curious and inquiring eyes at him through the rearview mirror.

Lin Yu smiled slightly and turned to look at the night outside the window.

Lin Yu didn't say anything, and the young sheriff didn't dare to speak first. The two returned to Jialin City in silence.

Get off at Lilia's small building, Lin Yu closed the car door, waved his hand to the young sheriff to say goodbye, then opened the door of the small building and walked in.

"Come back?"

Lilia was lying on the sofa, wearing silk pajamas, looking through her beloved romance novel. When she heard the sound from the door, she said without looking back.

Lin Yu did not answer Lilia's question of what was obviously nonsense, so she walked straight to the refrigerator and opened it, and took out a bottle of juice from it.

"I want to drink, too."

Lin Yu paused for a moment and took out a bottle of juice from the refrigerator again.

Lin Yu sat next to Lilia, opened the juice and inserted it into the straw.

"ah……"

Lilia opened her mouth, Lin Yu narrowed her eyes slightly, and took the straw to Lilia's mouth.

Gulugulu...

From beginning to end, Lilia just moved her mouth and her eyes never left the pages.

“It tastes so good.”
