Chapter 39: The Price of Salvation
The rain kept falling, and Lu Ming and the three of them were speeding forward in this damp forest with raincoats from nowhere.
I encountered a team with good strength before, but the other party seemed to have just experienced a battle, and the physical strength declined greatly, so Lu Ming and the three of them easily got the first scroll, but the final result was not satisfactory, and it was the same book of earth as himself.
It can only be said that he doesn't have the kind of life that Emperor Ou has in one shot, but it's better than nothing, comfort yourself, maybe it will come in handy when the time comes.
Immediately I thought that the food I was carrying was almost out, and now the first task was to find some food to replenish first.
With the experience of the last time, the three of them did not dare to act too separately.
"We're not too far from the central tower now, so we're starting to have to be careful!" Lu Ming reminded his teammates as he hurried.
"Ah Ming, there seems to be movement ahead."
Hearing Jiu Xinnai's reminder, Lu Ming and Shuimen also looked up, and in the distance, a gray-clothed young man was besieged by three people holding on to an earthen wall, it seemed that he was already at the end of his crossbow, and it was only a matter of time before he was defeated.
Lu Ming just wanted the two of them to hide first, but Jiu Xinnai suddenly sped up, rushed over without looking back, and still had words in his mouth, "What kind of hero is three dozen and one......
Lu Ming and Shuimen glanced at each other and followed with a wry smile.
When it was closer, Lu Ming was surprised to find that he could even recognize half of the four of them - Uchiha Yao and the Thousand Hands Rope Tree that had a relationship.
The Thousand Hands Rope Tree, which had been struggling to support, was relieved by Jiu Xinnai's inexplicable support, although he didn't know this red-haired girl, but this did not prevent him from being grateful to her, "Thank you!" ”
"I'll talk about that later!" Kushina stared at the three people opposite him with a serious face.
"Good!"
Uchiha Yao was slightly stunned when he saw Kushina who suddenly rushed out, and then sneered, there was even someone who came to die.
Just as he was about to make a move, he heard a faint voice behind him, "Long time no see, Uchiha Yao!" ”
Uchiha Yao's body shook slightly, this inexplicably familiar voice was, it was him, the boy who knocked all his pride and confidence to the ground.
Turning around a little tremblingly, he saw a figure take off his rain hat, smile and walk slowly towards him, that confident smile reminded Uchiha Yao of the scene that made him helpless, compared to the Thousand Hands clan in front of him, this young man named Tanaka Lu Ming made him more disgusted or afraid.
Watergate walked straight to Kushina's side, and gently slapped a knife on the top of Kushina's head, but the concern in his eyes was obvious.
"Don't be so impulsive next time!"
"Got it." Seeing the water gate that was helpless like this, Jiu Sinai also seemed to sense his impulse, and nodded weakly.
"Do you want to fight?" Hearing the words of the black-haired boy, the scene was strangely quiet.
Uchiha Yao didn't ask the two teammates next to him, unwillingness and anger were intertwined on his face, and finally gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Go!" ”
The two people next to him looked at each other strangely and followed.
After seeing the Uchiha's team leave quickly, the burden that pressed on the heart of the Thousand Hands Divine Tree also disappeared at once, and the exhaustion of excessive consumption struck in an instant, and it was too late to even say thank you, and the whole person suddenly lost consciousness and fainted.
Lu Ming looked at the Thousand-Hand Divine Tree that suddenly fainted in amazement, patted his forehead with one hand, and asked, "To save or not to save?" "In fact, you don't need to ask Lu Ming to know the answer, but as a team, he can't make decisions autocraticly.
"Of course we have to save it, otherwise our previous efforts were not in vain, Ah Ming is a good person." Kushina began to curry favor with Tsuki Naru with a good man card.
"It's all from the same village, I'll carry him!" Shuimen directly lifted the sacred tree and put him on his back.
Probably because of the amplitude of the movement, a scroll slipped out of the bosom of the sacred tree.
Lu Ming looked at the scroll on the ground, and felt a slight joy in his heart, this time it would not be completely fruitless.
Bent down to pick it up, it was rare for the second middle school to have a seizure as if he had a silent mantra in his heart that he only understood, and then slowly opened one eye.
'Xuan doesn't change his wrong, Krypton doesn't change his life', the big word 'earth' on the scroll made Lu Ming feel the malice from the world.
Next time, this kind of 'unboxing' activity will be given to Jiu Sinai and Shuimen, it is estimated that it will be difficult for his African blood to improve in a short period of time, Lu Ming stuffed the scroll back into the arms of the divine tree.
"The Book of the Earth again?" Watergate's question made Lu Ming feel like he was hit by a double blow, hehe, you can do it.
……
The Dead Forest is so dense that it's easy to find a shelter like a tree hole.
At this time, four children were crowded into the small tree hole, and three of them were chatting around the fire, and the scene looked very pleasant.
There is nothing warm in the wild, and the fire is their only means of dispelling the cold.
Kushina kept flipping through the fire with a branch, looking a little impatient, while the water gate next to her looked at her with a smile and didn't say a word.
Lu Ming continued to practice with his palms together to pass the time, and it was estimated that there were few teams that could be so casual in the Forest of Death.
Feeling the smell of rotting earth and the faint warmth, the rope tree stretched out its heavy eyelids, and the moss-covered darkness, where was he now? By the way, I seem to have been saved.
The weakness of his body made him not want to move, and after ten minutes, the smell of food aroused his hunger, and he sat up with difficulty, only to see the red-haired girl from before carefully holding a charred object with a leaf and walking towards him.
"One for each person!" As soon as Kushina put something in the other party's hand, he walked back to the fire.
Feeling the warmth in his hands, the rope tree brushed away the crispy skin, and the heat and sweetness of Huang Cancan's interior made his throat swallow unconsciously.
I blew the hot air briefly, wrapped it in leaves, and took a big bite, okay...... Hot, delicious.
A bowl of warm rice is enough for a hungry person, and this sweet potato is enough for the rope tree at this time.
"Thank you!" After eating and drinking, the rope tree solemnly thanked a few people, in this forest, he is used to seeing you fighting for each other, and he was suddenly moved by this selfless help.
Lu Ming looked at the Thousand Hand Rope Tree, and suddenly thought of the way he had used the earth escape before, and pretended not to know, "Now, this friend, as the price of saving you, can you use the soil to mend those gaps next to the tree hole?" The air leak is a bit cold! ”
Watergate "......"
Kushina "......"
Rope Tree looked at Lu Ming, who was full of smiles, and the gratitude that had just risen disappeared in an instant, and he smiled bitterly that he was an injured person who had just woken up.
