Episode 410 The roots of the tree are alive

Wang Haoran looked at Wu Changling and asked, "Can you tell us why we have to let us come out?" ”

Wu Changling said lightly: "Because those things that look like rain are not rain at all!" It's something else! ”

"What is it?"

At this time, even Li Ping couldn't help but ask.

Wu Changling explained: "Don't be in a hurry to know what this is. I'll tell you from the beginning! Do you remember the man-eating sand that our group encountered earlier? ”

I nodded and said, "Of course I do!" And the people above are all people who have been eaten by the sand! ”

Wu Changling nodded and said, "I still remember that before those people were eaten by the sand again, they once said that something caught their feet under the sand. Then, they were dragged in. Now it seems that it was the roots of this big tree that dragged them into the sand! Since this big tree is so big, it means that it has been growing for many years. Therefore, its underground rhizome must be very large! ”

Hearing Wu Changling say this, we all nodded and agreed with his words.

Wu Changling continued: "It's just that I don't know how this tree hung the bodies of those people on it? However, I knew that the reason why the tree was taking them back was to absorb nutrients to feed itself. The nutrients are then transported to the leaves. Make your foliage more lush! Then, through this drizzle, the excess nutrients are expelled and landed below for the roots to absorb. And moisturize the surrounding sand! Every moment is here to form an endless loop! Only in this way can it survive in this endless desert. ”

"In other words, what is dripping from the trees under the shade of the trees is not rain at all, but the nutrients that the flesh and blood of those people have been transformed by this big tree?"

After listening to Wu Changling's words, Wang Haoran immediately reacted.

Wu Changling nodded and said, "That's right! That's what it means! ”

Hearing Wu Changling's affirmation, Gangzi, who was still sitting under the shade of the tree, couldn't sit still anymore. I couldn't help but run out. Then, he said to Wu Changling: "You said it earlier!" If I had known that this was the case, I would have come out a long time ago! ”

Hearing Gangzi say this, we didn't say anything. Li Ping suddenly said on the side: "Now that this big tree is blocking our way into the ancient tomb, what should we do?" ”

Gangzi hurriedly said, "Isn't this simple? Shall we just cut down this tree? ”

As he spoke, he took out a Luoyang shovel directly from his backpack. Then, go under the big tree and get ready to go.

I couldn't help but ask him, "I said Gangye, you don't want to use this Luoyang shovel to cut down this big tree, right?" ”

Hearing me say this, Gangzi rolled his eyes. Then, he asked me, "If you don't use this, do you want to bite with your teeth?" ”

I gave him a blank look and didn't say anything more.

Gangzi stopped talking nonsense with me, and took the Luoyang shovel and slammed it on the big tree. At the same time, the big tree actually began to spew out crimson blood along the opening!

Seeing this scene, all of us were shocked! One by one, they stared blankly at the scene in front of them, and they didn't know what to do at all!

A big tree can bleed after being attacked! It's incredible! Could it be that this big tree has really become a sperm?

At this moment, the big tree is still pouring blood out. And the sand around us was completely red with blood. And I don't know why it's constantly "clattering" and bubbling with blood.

At this moment, all of us nervously looked at our feet! Don't understand what's going on?

Just when we didn't understand why the good sand suddenly bubbled with blood, suddenly, the sand under our feet collapsed violently. We didn't have time to react at all, and we fell down in an instant! Then, as soon as our eyes go dark, we don't know anything.

When I woke up again, I realized that we were in a dark space. Not far from me, several flashlights were constantly dangling. From time to time, the sound of Gangzi's conversation was heard.

I was relieved to hear their voices. It seems that everyone else is fine! That way I'm relieved! My biggest fear is that I'll be alone in a dark space!

I moved my body a bit, and when I realized that I was not injured, I took out my flashlight and shone it around.

I saw a few people around me who were still unconscious. Luckily there was a thick layer of sand underneath us. Otherwise, even if we don't fall to our deaths, we will only have half a life left!

As soon as the flashlight on my side was turned on, several flashlights shone at me. It shook my eyes, and I hurriedly stretched out my hand to block it!

Seeing that I was awake, Gangzi couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehe, Xiao Qiao, you kid is awake!" Come on, come and see this! You should be interested! ”

Hearing Gangzi say this, I hurriedly walked over. In front of my eyes, there was a dark hole. On the top of the cave is carved something that I am familiar with! That's actually the pattern of the five dragons climbing the flower tripod!

What's going on? Why is this pattern here? What does this mean? Could it be that there is something special in this ancient tomb?

Xue Qinglian said to us on the side: "It seems that we have come to the right place!" The old site of this Daguan Kingdom and the ancient tomb we are going to are really the same place! ”

After hearing Xue Qinglian's words, Gangzi hurriedly said, "Then what are we waiting for?" Hurry inside! ”

Wang Haoran nodded, and then asked people to call up the people who were still unconscious. After a brief tidying up, everyone set off.

We stooped down the small hole in front of us and crawled inside. This little hole is very narrow! Only one person can be allowed to bend over and pass through it. We took our flashlights and walked forward one by one. It was a torment for us to keep such a bent position for a long time like ours! Just when I felt like my waist was about to break, we finally walked out of that little hole.

As soon as I came out of the small hole, the first thing I did was make a long stretch. Then, he hurriedly shone his flashlight around.

Looking at the situation in front of us, we should be in a tomb now. All around us are all cyan slate! And on top of the stone slabs, there are dense roots that look like vines. The roots of the trees are intertwined, shielding the stone slabs above our heads and on both sides!

As we walked forward, we looked around us. Looking at the roots on both sides, I couldn't help but say to Gangzi, "Hey! Gangzi, where do you say these roots come from? It can't be the man-eating tree outside, right? ”

Hearing my words, Gangzi blinked, and then, pulled out a military dagger from his body. He smiled at me and said, "It's not easy? As long as we experiment, can't we? ”

As he spoke, he lifted the dagger and stuck it directly into a tree root on the wall.

As his dagger fell, all the roots on the walls wriggled like snakes!

We were taken aback by what we saw! Gangzi exclaimed even more: "Damn! What the fuck is going on here? ”

Before we could react, all the roots retreated behind us. Immediately, there was a "zilazila" sound on the wall.

We watched the scene in silence and completely forgot about the reaction. Just as all the roots disappeared in front of our eyes, there was a dull sound of "boom" like thunder in the place where the roots had just disappeared.

In the face of this unknown scene, the hearts of all of us can't help but raise our throats!

Gradually, as the sound grew louder and louder, I could even feel the space we were in starting to shake slightly.

At this moment, Wu Changling suddenly spoke: "No, these roots are from the big tree just now. It was cut by Gangzi and now needs a lot of supplemental nutrients. And his target is us! Everyone, get out of here! ”

Hearing this, we hurriedly turned around and prepared to run inside. However, at this moment, under the light of our flashlight, we saw the roots of the trees spreading towards us in front of us.

Li Ping didn't think about it, raised the pistol in his hand and pulled the trigger on the branch in front. Hearing only a "bang", the branch was immediately broken into two pieces.

With Li Ping's leadership, the others all took out their pistols and opened fire on the roots of the trees in front of them. But there are so many roots in front of us! In addition, their marksmanship is too different from Li Ping! It's basically like shooting indiscriminately. So, I can't stop those roots from approaching at all!

In just a few moments, someone was firmly controlled by the roots. Then, it was dragged out directly.

Seeing this scene, Li Ping hurriedly raised the pistol and pulled the trigger on a few branches dragging the person.

After a series of gunshots, the roots of the tree were broken in an instant. The man hurriedly got up from the ground and began to run towards us. However, he had only run a few steps when a large number of tree roots rushed up, wrapped the man firmly, and dragged him away.

Li Ping seemed to want to continue shooting. However, I didn't know where to start for a while!

"Let's go, everyone!"

In the face of so many tree roots, we simply can't fight hard! So, everyone gave up the attack, turned around and prepared to leave.
