Chapter Twenty-Four: The Thorn Ball

Nalan Ning's expression was a little dazed, her face was extremely pale, and the white dress she was wearing was also slightly dirty, when Tang Yichuan said the second sentence, she slowly came back to her senses, she looked at Tang Yichuan twice, "Brother Tang?" โ€

"It's me, are you alright?" Tang Yichuan felt strange, Nalan Ning clearly saw himself clearly just now, but the flying knife still flew in front of him, and his eyes were unhesitating, as if he was about to kill him.

Because of Nalan Ning's actions, Tang Yichuan had to be a little vigilant.

Nalan Ning's face was still very pale, and her eyes seemed to be clear and trance-like.

"Don't, don't come near me!" Nalan Ning's eyes suddenly cleared, and she took two steps back vigilantly, but that kind of vigilance didn't seem to be because she was afraid that Tang Yichuan would hurt her, but more like she was worried that she would hurt someone.

"Let's go down and have a look." Fusheng sat on Chu Xuan's shoulder, patted Chu Xuan's shoulder twice, and Chu Xuan lightly jumped behind Tang Yichuan.

The rest of the people also came out slowly, convinced that what they saw in front of them was a person, not any demons and monsters that could tear them apart.

"Something isn't right." He didn't talk much all the time, and the fox who was tired enough stared at Nalan Ning and said.

Everyone knows something is wrong, but no one knows what's wrong.

"What's wrong? Little lemons? Tang Yichuan asked cautiously.

"Don't come near me." Nalan Ning said worriedly, "Get out of here and leave me alone." โ€

"Youโ€”" Before he could finish speaking, the throwing knife came at him again. Nalan Ning also rushed up this time, her worried eyes flashed just now, she was particularly terrifying at this moment, she flew towards Tang Yichuan like crazy, her mouth opened wide, she bit Tang Yichuan's shoulder, and then shook her head like a mad dog, and her paws were also clawed on Tang Yichuan's body.

Tang Yichuan was startled, and subconsciously pressed Nalan Ning's shoulders with both hands, trying to push Nalan Ning away. But he underestimated Nalan Ning's strength. The strength on Nalan Ning's body was terrifying to the extreme, several times greater than him, and it didn't seem like the strength that such a girl could have. It's completely the strength to tear apart a person's hand with one hand. Tang Yichuan was directly pressed to the ground.

In a panic. Tang Yichuan touched Nalan Ning's back, and as soon as he touched it, he felt that something was wrong. What he touched was not Nalan Ning's clothes, nor her skin, but a wet, slippery, and prickly touch, and his hand was pricked.

Something that exudes evil spirits, I think there's something wrong.

At the same time that Tang Yichuan reacted, Xu Qiu on the side had already rushed over to help Tang Yichuan, and Fusheng opened his mouth to drink Ling Nalan Ning, but his identity as an emperor bone was suddenly out of his mind now, and he roared a few words, and Nalan Ning was not accused by him.

"On your back!" Tang Yichuan shouted, "Look at what's on her back!" โ€

The doctor was the first to react, and when he saw Nalan Ning's back, he immediately became excited: "There is something new!" โ€

The scalpel flashed out, and the doctor played twice in his hand and walked forward quickly, "You hold her, I'll get these things down!" โ€

"Damn, I can't catch it!" Tang Yichuan had already been choked by Nalan Ning's neck, and Nalan Ning's strength felt like it could pinch his entire neck into pieces, Tang Yichuan couldn't move, and he couldn't even breathe.

"You're going to get a hand!" Fusheng glared at the fox and urged Chu Xuan again.

Chu Xuan put down the floating life and rushed forward, the fox leaned motionless against the tree, he was so tired these days that he didn't even want to speak, and now he didn't even want to care about Tang Yichuan, who was pulling his own life before, he just wanted to take a good rest.

The fox has always been a lazy person in his life, in general, he can sit and never stand, he will never sit if he can lie down, after so many days of exhaustion, it is already the limit for him, as long as Tang Yichuan is not dead, he doesn't even want to move a finger.

Although Chu Xuan had a lot of strength, he couldn't tear Nalan Ning away, and Xu Qiu also saw that Tang Yichuan knew this little girl, and he didn't dare to hurt the little girl rashly, but he couldn't make up his mind how to rescue Tang Yichuan on the side.

"Do it yourself!" The doctor pointed at Tang Yichuan and said, "If you don't want to die, stabilize me!" โ€

The scalpel was extremely dazzling, Tang Yichuan held back his strength, and finally summoned the Yin Yang Tree, countless vines entangled Nalan Ning, fixed Nalan Ning in the wound, wrapped in Nalan Ning, the same as a mummy, unable to move for a while.

"Hurry up, I'm going to collapse!" Tang Yichuan urged.

The doctor quickly used the scalpel to move on Nalan Ning's back, Nalan Ning's back grew a few green thorn balls, this thing was like a fluffy grass, but the tip part was very sharp, you were all thorns, stuck in Nalan Ning's back, there were many such things, like a ball of grass, and like a parasite.

Fortunately, these things were not very tricky, and the doctor found that these things seemed to be able to sense danger, and as soon as his scalpel reached over, these things fell off freely, and the doctor quickly caught them in the bottle that knocked them over.

Nalan Ning's eyes gradually became clearer, she looked at Tang Yichuan and said, "Brother Tang......" and then fainted.

Xu Qiu and Tang Yique helped Nalan Ning up, and when Tang Yichuan got up, he felt that his whole body was about to fall apart, and there was no place on his body that he could control, and the whole person looked a little trembling.

"Are you alright?" Xu Qiu looked at Tang Yichuan and said with concern, "Doctor, do you want to come over and take a look?" โ€

"I can't die." The doctor was already studying the gadgets he got from Nalan Ning, and of course he couldn't take care of Tang Yichuan.

"I'm fine." Tang Yichuan's voice was a little hoarse, and his voice sounded a little wrong, but he didn't suffer any injuries, he was tired.

Nalan Ning was placed on the ground on the side, and Tang Yichuan walked over and sat on the side of Nalan Ning, taking a few breaths. I feel a lot better.

"Is this someone you know?" Xu Qiu looked at Nalan Ning on the ground, and said with some curiosity, "This little girl is only a teenager at most, and she seems to be powerless, it is really not easy to survive in this forest, thanks to the thing that crawled on her just now, right?" Doctor, can you make people stronger? โ€

"She would have lived better without those things." Tang Yichuan glanced at the sleeping Nalan Ning, those strange things must have made Nalan Ning miserable.

In terms of Nalan Ning's strength, this kind of place will definitely not let her be such a wolf, and many demons and monsters don't like to get close to Nalan Ning. She has a special smell on her.

"Huh? She can't be like you, right? Xu Qiu said with some surprise. I didn't know there was such a small girl like you? It seems that I really know too little about this world, which is an eye-opener. โ€

"Doctor, show me that thing." Tang Yichuan looked at his hand full of small needle holes pierced by Nalan Ning's back, wanting to see what it was that made Nalan Ning like this. was also tied into this virtue by his own hands.

The doctor carefully handed the small glass bottle to Tang Yichuan's hand. "Be careful. This is the first time I've collected it, and it looks a lot more special than the other creatures of the Hell, like a parasite. Attaching to other things can make them crazy, and it can also absorb a lot of power, so Nalan Ling will faint. โ€

Tang Yichuan looked at the thing in the bottle carefully, and he couldn't see anything special on the surface, but he clearly knew that this thing was very terrifying, and when it was adsorbed on Nalan Ning's body just now, he couldn't bear the power that Nalan Ning had stimulated.

A few thorn-like things were so peaceful and motionless in the bottle, like a few green grasses that it was hard to imagine their terrible deeds.

"Let's wait for Lemon to wake up before leaving." Tang Yichuan glanced at Nalan Ning and said, he threw the things in his hand back to the doctor, "If she goes with us, we should have hope of leaving here, she has a very strong spatial ability, and she doesn't dare to find her way anywhere." โ€

"So godly?" Xu Qiu was taken aback again, "Does she still have such skills?" Is it better than a compass? โ€

Tang Yichuan nodded, they waited for a while, worried that it would be very troublesome for Nalan Ning to wake up if it was dark, Nalan Ning finally showed a little sign of waking up, she slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was several heads leaning above her to block her vision.

"Little Lemon?" Tang Yichuan called in a low voice.

"Hmm......" Nalan Ning suddenly sat up from the ground, she reached out and touched her back, and then found that the thorn balls on her back were gone, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her head to look at Tang Yichuan, "I didn't do anything to you, did I?" โ€

"No, I'm fine. What's going on with you, how are you here? Tang Yichuan looked at Nalan Ning and asked.

"Those thorn balls are interfering with my thoughts." Nalan Ning knew that Tang Yichuan must have known that he was disturbed before he would do anything to him, so he didn't explain it, and directly talked about his situation.

Nalan Ning said that she was originally with Shangguan Linglan, and when there were signs of yin and yang chaos, Nalan Ning caught some strange creatures, and then in her real room, let Nalan Ning go over to see if there was anything she knew. As a result, after Nalan Ning passed, the situation of yin and yang chaos became even worse, and a lot of yin and evil qi came up from the ground of the real yร n room, destroying all the things that Shangguan Linglan had caught at once.

Nalan Ning was unfortunately touched by the thorn ball, and after several thorn balls were pierced on her body, her consciousness began to blur, and she escaped after a big fight with Shangguan Linglan, chasing some people or creatures all the way to this place, and then she saw Tang Yichuan.

Nalan Ning said that although she was controlled by the stabbing ball, her consciousness was still a little sober, sometimes confused and sometimes sober, which allowed her to live until now.

And she said something, which also made Tang Yichuan ponder.

Nalan Ning said that she had a discovery, that is, how much the yin and evil qi represents the strength of these hell creatures, the more yin and evil qi, the stronger the hell creatures, and the hell creatures are also eager for the yin and evil qi, even when those little thorn balls control zhรฌ Nalan Ning, they are also trying to get more yin and evil qi.

"You're saying that the evil aura can be absorbed from other living beings. And the more Yin Qi it absorbs, the stronger that creature will become. Tang Yichuan said.

"That's true in principle, and I think it's hierarchical." Nalan Ning said that she felt the changes in those thorn balls on her body, there was a thorn ball that absorbed the most yin and evil qi, it grew the fastest, and after the yin and evil qi reached a certain level, it also grew a pair of wings.

According to this inference, this yin and evil qi now is like the aura they have when they are cultivating, and the more they absorb. The more powerful.

"It's a strange smell. I don't know if human beings can absorb it, but if human beings absorb it, they should be able to become stronger. Nalan Ning muttered.

"Yes." Tang Yichuan thought of Li Xiuzhe, who was the first person he had ever come into contact with who had absorbed the Yin and Evil Qi. It is indeed much stronger than ordinary people.

"If that's the case. If only human beings could absorb such breaths. Maybe you can compete with these infernal creatures. Naranning rubbed his legs, stood up and said, "But it shouldn't be for everyone." Otherwise, not so many people would have died. Do you know why the yin and yang order is out of balance? Why is this happening all of a sudden, is it because something has gone wrong in the underworld? โ€

Tang Yichuan shook his head, no one knew why the imbalance between yin and yang was, this was a sudden outbreak, although before this, he felt that Mingrui had already felt something.

"Looks like we'll have to check slowly to find out." Nalan Ning took a deep breath, she talked a lot more than before, the environment has changed, and the people have changed a lot, "Let's go, you must want to leave this ghost place, I'll lead the way, I still have a sense of direction." โ€

"That's for the best." Tang Yichuan is really afraid of being trapped here, he misses the other people and wants to go crazy, I don't know what happened to Su Qingyi, I don't know what happened to the others, the situation will only get worse and worse, and I don't know if all the people can survive safe and sound.

With Nalan Ning's leadership and her keen ability to avoid danger, they didn't encounter some dangers to challenge their limits along the way, except for the numbness of their legs.

But there are fewer demons and monsters, but there are more people to meet, trapped here for four or five days, I don't know what is going on in the outside world, there are countless people who seem to have penetrated this huge forest, there are more people, it is easy to knock down, and once it is knocked down, it will cause some contradictions.

Fortunately, Tang Yichuan and the others are each extremely capable, and these ordinary people are easy to deal with, although they encounter some people who want to rob them from time to time, but they are all sent away in the end.

Just walking, Tang Yichuan found that there were more and more people following them, there were many who couldn't beat them, and there were many who saw that there were many of them, so he followed them in one go, hoping that they would walk in front and seek a little shelter from them.

For a while, this team, which was originally only a few people, became a large team of dozens of people, and there was a huge movement as it passed through the forest.

"There are more and more people." Nalan Ning glanced back, a little worried.

"If it goes on like this, it will definitely attract a lot of monsters." Xu Qiu nodded understandingly.

"So many people are like cowhide plasters, they can't be driven away, you can't let them follow like this all the time, this is dangerous, and more people will die." Fusheng said, "Looking at the situation, the outside world should be very bad, otherwise there would not be so many people running to this unknown forest." โ€

Tang Yichuan and the others walked in front, whispering something as they walked.

Although the people behind them were all following Tang Yichuan and a few others, they didn't dare to make a loud noise, let alone come up to talk to any of them, for fear that they would offend people if they spoke, and then they were driven out of the big team.

People are social animals, the more people, the safer and more reassuring for anyone, once there is only one person, that is not far from the meaning of death, so no one wants to break away from this big team, many people see that there are many people here, directly sticky up, once there are more people, one more person and less one person actually does not have too much feeling, everyone is difficult to protect themselves, so no one will care about the new sticky people.

Smart people know that the person who walks in the front is more powerful, so no one provokes the person in front, just follow An'an.

Tang Yichuan glanced back several times, there were so many people, he knew that trouble would come soon, Nalan Ning said that he wanted to get out of this forest. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to get out of here, not just for a while, and it will be a real headache for him to be killed because of the large number of people during this period.

After a glance, Tang Yichuan walked to the last person who followed them in the group of people behind, it was a somewhat exaggerated man, wearing a camouflage uniform, carrying a lot of weapons, and his backpack was also bulging, there should be a lot of things, starting from the moment he entered this team. Tang Yichuan had already noticed him.

The man was nearly 1.9 meters tall. Conspicuous among a large group of ordinary people, he often inquires around him when everyone is resting, but does not go far. Will be back in a moment. Then a silent man sat in a corner. Don't provoke people, don't be provoked, and whoever talks to him will be ignored.

He seems to be outside the team. But it seems to be relying on this team again.

A shadow fell from the top of his head, and the man who had just taken a bite of the compressed biscuit clearly felt that someone was in front of him, but he didn't look up, and his handsome and vicissitudes of life had a numb expression, looking very wooden.

"Hello." Tang Yichuan squatted down beside the man and sat side by side with him on a tree trunk that had fallen to the ground.

Not to Tang Yichuan's expectations, the man ignored him, just swallowed his biscuit, then poured a sip of water, leaned back, and began to close his eyes to recuperate.

"Can I ask you a few questions?" Tang Yichuan didn't care whether the man saw him or not, and asked to himself.

The man was silent, as if he hadn't heard Tang Yichuan talking.

There were some eyes around, curious why Tang Yichuan wanted to talk to this man who was silent and separated from the masses, but no one dared to approach, whether it was Tang Yichuan or this man, they all knew that it was not easy to provoke.

Everyone has seen the man walking in the jungle, like a cheetah, he is very fast, so fast that everyone is surprised that he has food and drink, and has the ability to shuttle through the jungle, why should he follow such a large army.

None of them are stupid, they know that more people are easier to attract danger, but they still can't help but be with the big army, because they know that with their own ability, there is no way to survive at all, but Tang Yichuan's team gave them hope, and after seeing them kill some demons and monsters, they all knew that they were very powerful.

After waiting for two minutes, the man didn't speak, Tang Yichuan continued to speak: "First, I want to ask you, why do you follow us, you are different from others, you are very capable, and you are enough to protect yourself." Second, when did you enter this forest, and third, what happened to the outside world when you left. โ€

"If I answer your question, can I go with you to Beijing?" The man finally opened his eyes, and he glanced sideways at Tang Yichuan.

Tang Yichuan was stunned for a moment, "How do you know that we are going to Beijing?" โ€

"I'll just answer the three questions you want." The man lowered his eyes, felt in his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, hesitated, and stuffed the cigarette back again, seemingly reluctant to smoke.

"Okay, you're not a burden, there's no problem with you. Follow us whenever you want. Tang Yichuan said briskly, "Then please answer my question." โ€

"First, I can indeed protect myself, more than enough, but I know that I can't go out alone, I don't have a direction, and I don't have the ability like yours, and the monsters here will become stronger and stronger, and they won't be so easy to deal with. Second, I had just entered the forest the day before I met you. Thirdly, before I came in, I had just been on a mission in the city, but the mission failed and the whole army was wiped out. The city no longer exists. โ€

"What does it mean that the city does not exist zร i?" Tang Yichuan was stunned.

"Destroy miรจ, there is a strange plant, what you call the creatures of hell spread, the houses of the whole city have collapsed, and all the people there have become a non-human and non-flowering plant, and half of that world is full of big red flowers when I left."

"Big Red Flower?" Tang Yichuan remembered the gangster they killed in the supermarket, could it be that kind of flower, it has such a powerful spreading ability, and the hellish creatures really can't be underestimated.

"Get outโ€”"

An angry roar was heard from ahead, followed by a scream, and someone was fighting. (To be continued......)
