Volume 1: Like Clouds Chapter 17 Indecision, Quantum Mechanics
Luo Xiangwan's question was quickly answered.
After the tree man took root steadily, five branches stretched out about his waist, and the men stood around the tree man for a while, then put the branches in their mouths and began to suck.
Lu Tan's scalp was numb when he saw it, and he didn't dare to breathe, he only felt that this scene was weird and disgusting.
When the system sounded, he even trembled in fright.
[A clue to the forces behind it is obtained: a perpetual motion machine for tree people. (1/5)】
What the hell is a tree man perpetual motion machine?
Everything Lu Tan encountered tonight was completely beyond his cognition, and his CPU was already about to burn out.
He wasn't sure if these people were sacrificing en masse, so he had to look at Luo Xiangwan, trying to get her, the native, to provide some clues.
Luo Xiangwan also frowned, but when he received Lu Tan's questioning eyes, he understood that the man in front of him did not have a spiritual root, so he still objectively provided some clues: "After these people sucked from this tree man, their bodies began to have spiritual power floating. It looks like this person is giving them his spiritual power......"
Giving your spiritual power to others? It sounds like a sacrifice for oneself, not a collective sacrifice.
So Lu Tan didn't move, and continued to watch quietly.
The men sucked for a while, and the vines on the tree man's body were visibly dried up and withered.
He moved, and stretched out a few branches again.
Then, all the women except Lu Sisi walked up together, took off their tops one after another, and stabbed the sharp part of the branch into their chest.
Isn't this a sacrifice or what?!
Lu Tan was finally able to move, he didn't say a word, he took out the darts, threw a few out first, knocked down the branches, and shouted at Luo Xiangwan: "It's now!" ”
Luo Xiangwan did not hesitate, the huge water balloon roared away, and the people who touched it would be swept into the ball, all of them showed painful looks, and the suffocation feeling of being wrapped in water made them terrified.
"Lu Tan!!" Lu Sisi shouted in shock, but her shouting soon stopped abruptly, because the man who had just held her desperately reached out in the water balloon, grabbed her hair, and led her into the water balloon as well.
Lu Tan and the others had the upper hand at once, but the sound of the system task completing the task did not sound, and Lu Tan always felt a little uneasy, holding the last two remaining darts in his hand, and cold sweat soaked his back.
Sure enough, there was a variable, because the tree man was rooted in the ground, Luo Xiangwan's waterspouts did not uproot him several times, but he was like a real plant, and he also sucked up some of the water collected by Luo Xiangwan.
After absorbing a part of the water with Luo Xiangwan's spiritual power, the tree man had the ability to fight back again, and the tree branch that had just been interrupted by Lu Tan shook and stretched out again, stabbing into the women's bodies fiercely, and then, like an infusion belt, began to suck the women's blood purely.
"Cut them off!" Lu Tan didn't expect this person to come by force, so he jumped off the wall directly, rushed into the courtyard and began to fight with his body.
However, the branch seemed to have taken root in the women's bodies, and he could not pull it out with his strength.
Luo Xiangwan looked at their side, took out a dagger with ice, and threw it to Lu Tan: "Use this!" ”
Lu Tan didn't care much, and picked up the spiritual power illusion thing with his bare hands again, the dagger was transparent and crystalline, and the bone-chilling cold immediately swept him after touching Lu Tan's hand, and his palm that had just been burned and festered and had not yet been raised was painful again.
But now there is no time to be pretentious to him, Lu Tan endured the pain and swung the ice dagger, this attack finally worked, the branches were cut off one by one, the tree man let out a painful wail, and the vines wrapped around his body finally faded one by one.
There had been a lot of commotion in this courtyard before, and coupled with the loud wail of the tree man, some residents living in the alley not far away were woken up, and they put on their clothes and lit oil lamps to see what was going on.
"You can't let the people get involved." Luo Xiangwan said solemnly.
Lu Tan agreed, and pointed at the tree man: "You take him away, and the rest of the people will be handed over to me to clean up the aftermath." ”
This is the best way, there are too many victims, and the two of them can't carry them for a while, if they leave the tree man behind, lest his blood-sucking tricks will be used against ordinary people.
So Luo Xiangwan could only take Shunan away first, and then leave Lu Tan to deal with the aftermath.
So Luo waved his hand to the night, made an ice cage, locked the tree man inside, and ran away with him.
There was only one conscious person left in the courtyard, Lu Tan, facing a mess.
The man and woman fell to the ground, Lu Sisi had fainted, but her hand was still holding with the man, and she couldn't tell that she had just been dragged in, as if the two were intimate lovers who intersected with life and death.
"Hey." Lu Tan sighed, looked at his already rotten palm, walked to the door of Qingyueji, raised the ice dagger in his hand, cleared his throat, and said aloud to the people who came to watch the excitement: "I came with Anhe County Lord to save people, this is the ice dagger transformed by the county lord's spiritual power, you can take a look." ”
As he spoke, he raised his dagger and shook it.
In fact, a few of the people living in this neighborhood have really seen the county lord of Anhe use spiritual power, but when they came just now, they did vaguely see a huge ice cube leaving, just ask who else in the entire Luoyun Country has this kind of strength?
The people who didn't know it immediately believed Lu Tan's words.
Lu Tan kicked the gate of Qingyueji open again, opening it to the maximum, so that they could see the situation in the backyard: "Do you have the strength to help me carry these people to Dali Temple?" ”
A few curious probes looked at it and recognized the acquaintance at a glance: "Isn't that the daughter of Huang Yuanwai's family lying down?" It's really the county lord of Anhe who came to save people! Come and help the county lord! ”
Luo Xiangwan's reputation in Luoyun Country is really useful, and he got so much help just by lighting it up.
As the people took the last woman out of Qingyue Ji and put it on the flatbed truck, Lu Tan's mind finally sounded the happy singing voice of Xiao Lori.
[There is only a small land in the world~ There is a land system like a treasure ~]
[The group sacrifice activity was successfully stopped~ Please submit the clues of the forces behind it in time to exchange for rich rewards! ] 】
Five horizontal lines immediately appeared in Lu Tan's mind, one of which had been written on it with the tree man perpetual motion machine, and the rest was still empty.
It's really painful, Lu Tan closed his eyes with tears in the corners of his eyes.
He didn't expect to graduate, cross, and enter the Qinglou to do chores, but he still had to do fill-in-the-blank questions.
He carefully reviewed the scene of the fight with Luo Xiangwan just now in his mind, and carefully thought about what abnormal and weird things could be filled in the horizontal line.
