Chapter 13: Plant Adepts
The Land Rover that was driving on the road suddenly stopped, Fang Huiru rubbed her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It seems that it can't be passed for the time being." Ye Yiran looked ahead and said.
Hearing this, Fang Huiru looked blankly at the road ahead, only to see a thick branch swinging horizontally on the road ahead. Seeing this situation, in order to prevent someone from lying in ambush on the side, after observing the surroundings for a while and finding that there was no movement, Ye Yiran and Lin Jixin opened the car door and prepared to get out of the car to remove the branches blocking the road. As soon as everyone got out of the car and walked out, before everyone could react, a tree stick stretched out from one side of the woods and wrapped one of Yang Qian's feet around it, and quickly pulled it deep into the woods. Seeing this, Lin Jixin used his ability to smash over, the tree bar was cut off at the waist, and when everyone was distracted by Yang Qian, another tree stick stretched out from the woods and pulled Fang Huiru into the woods. By the time Ye Yiran and the others chased after him, Fang Huiru had already disappeared.
Fang Huiru saw that she was entangled in the tree, and wanted to smash it with her ability, but the tree seemed to understand her thoughts, and quickly wrapped her hands and feet into a strong knot.
When the tree bars finally stopped, Fang Huiru calmed down and looked ahead, only to realize that it was not a mutant plant that had tied herself up as she thought, because she saw a human controlling the tree bars again. A skinny woman, not far from her was tied to a zombie, the zombie was very small, and it looked like it should have been a child before. She saw the woman dragging herself in front of the little zombie, and said to it with a gentle face: "Baby, mom has caught another person for you, you see, this time it is a beautiful sister, and the taste must be better than the last time." After speaking, the woman's eyes looked at her with a slight hint of madness and cruelty: "Don't blame me, I am also for your good, otherwise it is a torture to live in this last world, and you should feel honored to be able to cook food for my baby."
Fang Huiru looked at the woman in front of her, although she could understand the reason for her madness, she still felt a trace of fear, she didn't know if she could escape this time, but no matter how she struggled, the tree was tightly tied to her.
A shield made of metal stood in front of her, a wind system flew behind Fang Huiru, just hitting the woman, and on the other side, Ye Yiran ran quickly ran towards Fang Huiru, taking advantage of the woman's injury to save her. Then, Lin Jixin attacked the little zombie, and the tied little zombie naturally had no ability to fight back, so he was cut off and couldn't move anymore. And when the woman saw that her baby was killed, she naturally couldn't accept the fact that she wanted to avenge her baby, kill these people, and let them go down to make food for her baby.
The woman seemed to be dying, regardless of the danger that her abilities might be exhausted, she continued to control the plants around her, this is her world, and the woods are her best place to fight.
Far away from the war zone, Yang Qian untied the branches on Fang Huiru's body on the side, and Fang Huiru saw that she couldn't intervene at all, so she could only watch the battle ahead anxiously, only to see that the surrounding branches were constantly attacking Ye Yiran and Lin Jixin, and the two seemed to be suppressed, just dodging constantly.
Because the woman wanted to control the plant to attack Ye Yiran and them, her two eyes stared at them fiercely, but she didn't notice that the shield that she had stood aside to protect Fang Huiru had turned into the shape of a long arrow and shot from behind her.
"Uh" seemed incredulous, and the woman looked down at the arrow still in her body, and fell backwards with a bang.
Fang Huiru looked at this woman's corpse in a daze, she didn't know if she would make the same decision as her if she encountered such a situation, if it was her relatives or Ye Yiran became a zombie, thinking of this situation, she felt that if it was herself, maybe she would be like this woman, find a hidden place to hide them, and then go to capture the survivors passing by to make food for them.
"Ye Yiran."
"Huh?"
"Actually, this woman is also very pitiful."
“?”
Fang Huiru stepped forward and took Ye Yiran's hand, felt the temperature of the palm of her hand, held it tightly, and looked up at the dark sky: "Let's go, it's been delayed for too long, it's not easy to hurry when it's dark, it seems that I'm going to spend the night in the car again today, and now the night is getting colder and colder day by day."
"If you're feeling cold, I've got cotton wool for you."
"Ye Yiran, you are so good."
"Both, please take care of our feelings when we talk about love." Lin Jixin suddenly stood behind him and said with a resentful expression.
"Lin Jixin, you scare me, don't suddenly stand behind others and talk." Fang Huiru said with a puffed mouth.
Lin Jixin walked casually as if he hadn't heard it.
Looking at Lin Jixin like this, Fang Huiru stomped and walked out.
Because of the previous woman's incident, everyone knew that there was some silence along the way, especially Fang Huiru, she couldn't even be sure of the life and death of her parents, that is, she was afraid that her parents would be dead or become zombies, and she was worried that her parents would be miserable if they lived, because she had seen the lives of ordinary people in the base, so she knew how difficult it would be for people without abilities to survive in the last days.
For this almost depressing silence, Lin Jixin is very unaccustomed to and does not like it, and he also sneered at the behavior of the previously dead plant adept to catch the survivors and feed the zombies, and kept saying that he loved his baby so he couldn't accept him to leave him, even if he had become a zombie, he would not let it go, and hide it to feed. He really wanted to laugh, if it was really for the sake of his relatives, if it was him, he would definitely kill him with his own hands, let him kill him before he turned into a zombie, lest he become that disgusting monster. If the same thing happened to him, he would never allow himself to become a zombie, let alone agree with others to feed him.
"I said can you stop being so lifeless, with your attitude, even if it's okay, you will summon bad luck." Lin Jixin looked at everyone with dissatisfaction like a dead relative, although some people are indeed dead relatives now, but in the last days, there are no dead people, everyone is struggling, just because of the woman just now, a group of people are not a little angry, thinking of this, I am even more dissatisfied with that woman, but unfortunately she is dead, and there is no way to vent her anger.
Fang Huiru glanced at Lin Jixin and felt that he was really heartless, but in the last days, people with a character like him had to live better. I slapped my face and stopped thinking about the mess.
But just when Lin Jixin was still arguing in his heart, the situation changed again, and the car also listened to Ye Yiran's sudden brake bell. Lin Jixin, who didn't pay attention to the road ahead, slammed into the seat in front of him because he was not prepared in time, and after coming to his senses, he glanced at Ye Yiran with complaining eyes, even if it was revenge, there was no need to be like this.
Perhaps sensing Lin Jixin's eyes, Ye Yiran coughed and explained: "The bridge is broken."
This is what everyone has reacted to, but doesn't this mean that this road can't be walked, doesn't that mean that the previous road has been taken in vain, and it's good not to bring such a playful person.
