Chapter Eighty-One: Peeping

Not long after, the pumpkin was ready, and Li Si took a wooden stick to pull the simmered pumpkin out of the bonfire, and he found that the pumpkin was burnt through the skin, and it was a little crispy and soft when he took it out.

Then he used a wooden stick to throw a few pumpkins in front of them.

When a few people saw the pumpkin, they also swallowed slightly, especially the family of three, who may not have eaten for a while, and they were even more greedy.

"Eat slowly, be careful not to get hot,." Li Si reminded that this family of three may have injuries in their bodies, and they may not have eaten for a long time, so eating too fast at one time may cause their injuries to worsen.

Similarly, the same is true for He Zhong, he was poked in the stomach by Chen Zhongyang, and it is estimated that the injury is not light, and it is not suitable for eating too fast.

When a few people heard Li Si say this, they also understood what he meant, so they began to eat slowly.

The taste of this pumpkin is not very good, and it is even a little unpalatable, but at the moment they can't take care of so much, and it is good to have something to eat.

Not long after, the pumpkin was eaten and everyone went on with their work.

At this time, the night was already very deep, but what made people feel strange was that there were no birds, beasts and insects in the vicinity, almost dead silence, only the crackling of burning wood, and the sound of several people tying thatch.

In the time that followed, there were several attempts to harass the roots, however, the roots were severed by minor breaks.

Although Xiao Duan is sometimes a fool, he is still very talented in combat, and every time the roots of the tree are disturbed, he can quickly solve it. This also brings a lot of convenience to everyone.

When it was time for the third watch in the middle of the night, a few people stopped, a few people stretched, and at this time the four bamboo baskets had been filled with small bundles of thatch.

"Rest, I'll keep vigil." Li Si moved his neck and said with a smile.

Several adults looked at Li Si with hesitant expressions, but in the end they all nodded helplessly.

Now Li Si is the only one who can keep vigil, and it is useless for others to keep vigil at all, so it is better to use extra time to rest.

Li Si glanced around, but his mood was not as relaxed as the other four, this use of fire to drive away the peach tree demon may be useful, but this is based on the fact that the peach tree demon is afraid of pain, and if the peach tree demon goes crazy, then no one can escape.

For this kind of thing, he can't take any chances, he only has four low-level demon charms now, and he can only kill four peach tree demons. And if these four low-level demon talismans are used up, then what awaits him is a dead end.

There was no thunder and lightning that could help him now, and even if there were, it wouldn't hit this place.

On the contrary, he didn't want it to rain tomorrow, otherwise the time for the breakthrough would be delayed.

People plan a thousand calculations, and the sky is only one calculation. Many things don't always work out if they are planned, and a lot of luck is needed.

Shaking his head slightly, Li Si put these thoughts behind him, it is useless to think about these now, just make a good plan for the time being.

Putting aside his thoughts, he looked at the crowd, who had already spread out the quilts they had pulled out of the ruins.

Seeing this scene, Li Si's expression paused slightly, and then he seemed to think of something, and immediately said, "Don't sleep like this today." ”

Several people were stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Si with some confusion.

Seeing the puzzled expressions of several people, Li Si sighed in his heart, these people felt that they were here, so they thought about how to sleep, and relaxed their vigilance, so they didn't think as much as he thought.

In fact, he is also because of Yu Hu's death, so he is a little more wary of these demons and ghosts, and he will think a little more, otherwise if something like Yu Hu happens, he will regret it.

"The roots of this peach tree demon will come out of the ground, and it is dangerous for you to sleep like this." Li Si explained helplessly.

When several people heard Li Si say this, their faces suddenly changed, and they immediately got up from the ground, and only then did they know that it was dangerous.

In fact, it is indeed as Li Si expected, because these people have not attacked much because of the peach tree demon, coupled with Li Si's mysterious and unpredictable methods, so they are no longer as afraid as before, just thinking that Li Si is here, they will be safe.

"Go and sleep on that rock." Li Si pointed to a stone not far away, which was only one or two square in size, and it was a relatively common stone nearby.

A few people also nodded, hugged the quilt and walked to the stone, and after getting on the stone, several people sat down, and then fell asleep back to back.

Among them, the backs of He Zhong and Shu Rong's family members are also separated by quilts, but it doesn't have a big impact, even if there is, they can't take care of it now.

Li Si watched them quickly fall asleep, nodded slightly, and put the straw bamboo basket on the other stones.

Fortunately, there are a lot of stones here, and they haven't been specially cleaned, otherwise there would really be no place to stay.

After placing the bamboo basket on a few stones, Li Si walked to the bonfire and sat down, picked up the waste wood from the side and threw it into the bonfire, the sound of the wood colliding was extremely harsh in the silent night.

He wasn't going to sleep tonight, after all, he really didn't feel at ease to let Xiao Duan come to keep vigil. Fortunately, his body is much better now than he was at the beginning, and he won't be too sleepy after staying up all night.

The night was shrouded, the moon was hanging high, and the peach forest at this time fell into an eerie silence, only the sound of Li Si stirring the bonfire and the sound of the four of them breathing evenly.

Time passed slowly at this time, but Li Si only felt that time passed too slowly, and every moment was very difficult.

After all, there were more than a hundred human heads staring at him with strange eyes, and he had to guard against the roots of the trees underground.

And at this time, a peach tree demon with two human heads quietly squirmed into a group of peach tree demons, and two pairs of eyes stared at the five people present with vicious eyes.

In fact, this peach tree demon had already come to this neighborhood after eating Chen Zhongyang's corpse.

It had planned to strangle them to death with the roots of the tree when they were asleep, but it did not expect them to climb onto the rock.

The top of the stone is not very big, but the lower part is very large, and its roots have no way to move the stone.

The two heads stared at Li Si and the others, with a hesitant look in their eyes, and they wanted to let the split come forward and kill these people, but remembering the feeling of being killed by the split before, it shivered.

Although this peach tree demon has one more split, its strength is one point stronger. But in the same way, with each more split of its body, its pain will also deepen, which is why it has been slow to attack everyone.
