83. Remove Duplicates from Sorted List leetcode list

Remove Duplicates from Sorted List
Given a sorted linked list, delete all duplicates such that each element appear only once.
For example,
Given 1->1->2, return 1->2.
Given 1->1->2->3->3, return 1->2->3.

ListNode* deleteDuplicates(ListNode* head) {
        if(NULL == head)
        {
            return NULL;
        }

        if(NULL == head->next)
        {
            return head;
        }

        ListNode* pre = head;
        ListNode* pnext = pre->next;
        ListNode* tmp;

        while(pnext)
        {
            if(pnext->val == pre->val)
            {
                tmp = pnext;
                pre->next = pnext->next;
                pnext = pre->next;
                free(tmp);
            }
            else
            {
                pre = pre->next;
                pnext = pre->next;
            }
        }

        return head;
