The red vines that looked like blood poured into them, he had only seen them in one place—

The demon tree in the land of Zen!

On that day, it was the demon tree that attacked him, so he had to alarm almost all the fierce monsters in the land of Fengzen, and almost ended up dying.

Chu Ping, who was in the rear, had palpitations in his heart, and reminded him loudly: "Chen Qing, you are not injured, are you?" ”

Just now, they were just frightened, but Chen Qing really came into contact with the strange vines head-on, it was very dangerous, and if he didn't pay attention to being caught inside the shelter, he would definitely die.

"It's fine."

Chen Qing shook his head, turned around and said, "Let's go, the shelter won't last long." ”

The temptation of the Extreme Sun Body to the monster is extremely deadly, I am afraid that it will make the demon tree launch a more fierce attack, he must quickly organize everyone to escape, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Chu Ping nodded, thinking deeply: "Follow me." ”

"Okay."

……

They walked quickly into the hall of the refuge, only to see that the interior was very wide, at this moment, there was a sea of people, noisy sounds, and under the light that was not bright, many people were looking desperate, a large number of women and children were crying, in hidden corners, and even people were looking for joy and enjoying the last moments of their lives.

Lingering fear becomes the main theme, making the dreary atmosphere even more oppressive.

"Chen Qing?"

His arrival was noticed.

"Chen Qing came to help us? Great, we can still be saved! ”

"Come on, the current monsters are not at all something that humans can deal with, Gu He, Qin Yue, and the powerhouses of the Heavenly List have all died in White Emperor City, what can Chen Qing do if he comes, we are dead!"

……

Regarding his appearance, there are some who inspire the author and some who ignore it, and they all have different attitudes.

In the face of heated discussions, Chen Qing was expressionless and did not say a word, not wanting to give these people too much hope, lest they usher in greater despair.

"Where is the old granddaughter of the cow?" Chen Qing did not forget his purpose and immediately asked.

Chu Ping quickly ordered: "Quickly bring the old granddaughter of Niu over." ”

"Yes!"

A few minutes later, a girl carved in pink was led over by Chu Ping's subordinates.

The girl was wearing a pink dress, her appearance was weak, she pursed her lips slightly, her clean face was a little nervous, and she was a little at a loss, she blinked her clear eyes and asked timidly: "Uncle, are you looking for me?" ”

"She is Niu Lao's granddaughter." Chu Ping's face was sad, and his tone was low, "Old Niu's wife died early, and his son and daughter-in-law sacrificed their lives for the country, and now, she is the only heir." ”

Chen Qing nodded, stepped forward to approach the girl, lowered his body, met her eyes, and said softly: "Your grandfather asked me to protect you, it's too dangerous here, can you go with your uncle?" ”

Girl: "......"

She was a little afraid, her pure eyes dodging from side to side, not knowing how to answer.

The aunt who took care of her on weekdays left her, and everyone here was too strange to her.

Seeing this, Chen Qing smiled, tried his best to show his kind side, took the girl's hand from Chu Ping's subordinates, and said lightly: "Time is urgent, take me to see the exit to the outside of the city." ”

"Please ...... here"

Chu Ping hurriedly signaled, and immediately walked with him through the crowd, entered a passage about ten meters wide, and went deeper.

After more than ten minutes of walking, they came to the end, where there was a bronze gate, surrounded by a large number of chains and gears.

Chen Qing let go of the girl's hand and came to the bronze gate, as far as his eyes could see, he could see that the rusty gate was engraved with mysterious and obscure lines, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

In an instant, an indescribable simplicity and desolation rushed towards him, as if he had encountered a wild beast, and fear rose irrepressibly in his heart.

He was surprised: "This is ......"

Even if it was only a brief contact, he could see that this bronze gate was not simple.

"This door was found from a certain monument in Shennongjia, and we studied it for a long time to confirm that the existing forces could not break it at all, so we transported it here for protection." Chu Ping stepped forward and patted the center of the bronze gate, making a gap clearly visible in everyone's field of vision, "It's impossible to open him from the middle, so we originally wanted to open and close it up and down." ”

"Understood."

Chen Qing bowed slightly, pressed his hands against the center of the gate, and tried to push it open, but the gate did not move at all, and then he used a big knife to smash the ground under the gate into a dent, and then pulled it up with all his strength.

"Up!"

In an instant, Chen Qing's face turned red, his body trembled, and he used his greatest strength.

"Boom ......"

With his exertion, the bronze gate trembled slightly, and Chen Qing stood on the ground, his feet sank, and the hardness of the blood weapon level could not withstand the pressure at all, and he was directly deformed.

In the end, Chen Qing went all out, barely pulling up a few centimeters, but put it down after a few seconds.

"Can't you pull it up?"

Chu plane is like dead ashes, and the remaining expectations are shattered.

Even Chen Qing couldn't pull the bronze gate, even if they went up to help, it would be useless.

"Call everyone over and get ready to leave." Chen Qing shook his head and corrected.

In his mind, since he can pull with all his strength, then using the burning body, he can pull away 100%.

"Can it work?" Chu Ping's color was overjoyed.

"Hmm!"

"Quick!"

Chu Ping trembled with excitement and shouted: "Inform everyone in the shelter to prepare to enter this passage, we are ready to leave!" ”

Those were also in high spirits and hurried back to make announcements on the radio.

"Everyone is in the emergency escape route, and we are ready to leave!"

A word, repeated statement, echoes in a near-enclosed space.

"Can you leave?"

"I knew that Chen Qing could lead us to escape!"

"We ...... Saved?! ”

……

They were ecstatic, gave up everything in their hands, and rushed to the passage where Chen Qing was, surging like a tidal wave, crowding the passage entrance to the brim.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the shelter shook, the crowd staggered, the top was dented, and a huge steel plate fell, smashing into the crowd, killing and injuring several people.

"Bubbling ......"

Blood flowed, accompanied by fear, which stimulated the desire to survive to the apex, occupying everyone's mind.

"Get out of the way, don't fucking get in the way!"

"Bad old man, if your legs and feet are inconvenient, let me die far away, do you know how many people you are going to kill if you procrastinate!"

……

They were frantically crowded and seemed to have lost their minds, causing many elderly people who accidentally fell to the ground to be trampled to death.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The shelter was under attack, the lights flickered on and off, the electrical equipment was in trouble, and many of the machinery was paralyzed.

Chen Qing's heart tightened, and the golden flame on his body tried to pull up the bronze gate again: "Get up!" ”

His muscles were tense, his muscles were bulging, his face was purple, and almost with all his strength, the door was lifted, and the starlight and breeze from the outside poured in.

Holding up the gate, Chen Qing summoned out a black big knife and put it in the middle.

Fortunately, the black wind was extremely hard, and Chen Qing was not disappointed, firmly holding the pressure of the gate and becoming a pillar.

Beyond the gate, there was a valley not far from the city of Flowing Fire, and the night sky above the valley was dotted with stars.

"Let's go!"

Returning to the passage and taking the little hand of the old granddaughter of the cow, Chen Qing came to Chu Ping's side and said solemnly: "Is there a place to go?" ”

The outside world, which is no less dangerous, is not to leave the shelter and usher in peace.

On the contrary, everyone was greeted by a new form of despair.

Despair with nowhere to go.

"Nope."

Chu Ping shook his head and smiled bitterly.

It's not that he doesn't understand the tragic situation faced by humanity, it's just that he stays in the shelter to die, and there is at least a glimmer of life outside.

“……”

Chen Qing was silent.

This sentence, in a sense, means that there are 300,000 lives, and no more than 10,000 will survive in the end, or even less.

"Let's get out first." Chen Qingdao.

Chu Ping hesitated and asked, "Have you taken it out for guidance?" ”

"Nope." Chen Qing decisively refused.

300,000 lives, this burden is too heavy, he can't carry it, he will sink himself to death.

is willing to come to the rescue, he has really done his duty.

"Alas!"

Sighing, Chu Ping also knew that he was too embarrassed Chen Qing, and patted him on the shoulder: "I know you did your best, let's go, run in all directions, whether you can survive or not depends on your personal ability." ”

"City lord, take care."

"City Lord, I hope we still have a chance to meet again!"

……

They said goodbye to each other, entered the valley, fled the area, and disappeared.

"Chen Qing, farewell!" Chu Ping said.

"Hmm."

Chen Qing nodded in greeting, and would not take special care of the other party because he was the city lord.

When the first group of people left the passage, there was a sound of footsteps in the passage, and the ground seemed to shake, like an army of thousands of horses.

A large army inside the shelter arrived.

"We are saved!"

"Hahaha, I'm not dead......"

They entered the valley with a face full of joy and joy that they had narrowly survived.

Chen Qing stood at the door, holding the hand of the old granddaughter of the cow, there was no joy or sadness on his face, he had to wait for the crowd to leave the passage, and then withdraw the big knife.

Ten minutes...... Twenty minutes......

The sea of people seemed to be endless, pouring outward.

Looking at the smiles on their faces, Chen Qing's eyes lowered.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, a blood-red vine fell from above the valley, breaking through the air and approaching Chen Qing.

There is no doubt that the initiators of the destruction of the shelter are coming!

Almost instantly, Chen Qing withdrew his big knife, and with the help of the blade, cut off the vines, and then hugged the girl tightly and ran out of the valley.

Those who were still inside the passage, hoarse and weeping as they watched the door close: "No-"

"Boom!"

The sound of the gate hitting the ground drowned out the screams.

"Hold tight, close your eyes, it's very windy outside." Chen Qing reminded softly.

The demon tree is coming, and if it is delayed, it will be difficult for him to protect himself, as for those people inside, the ending is very cruel, but what can they do if they leave, they can no longer escape from the palm of the demon tree.

“…… Well. ”

The girl understood what she was going through, her head leaned on Chen Qing's shoulder, her little face buried in it, her hands hugged Chen Qing's neck hard, and she closed her eyes.

"Boom!"

The sand splashed, Chen Qing galloped between the valleys with all his might, and at a glance, he saw that above the valley, there was a blood-red demon tree, the demon tree emitted a demonic red light, surrounded by blood mist, and above the hideous and huge body, countless vines were flying, which was terrifying.

Its roots spread out on the ground, spreading for kilometers nearby, and the rocks cracked when it moved, and the ground shook and shattered, and its power was incomparable.

Under the awakening technique, Chen Qing saw the majestic energy rising to the sky.

Its realm is beyond speculation!

"Extreme...... Yang...... It...... Body ......"

The dryad roared, its voice hoarse, shaking the heavens and the earth, the terrifying coercion dissipated, and the killing intent was like a tide.

……
