Chapter 188:

After cleaning up the entire town of Yangliu, the sun was almost setting. Considering that the mutated mosquitoes appeared after dark, it was very unsafe to sleep in the wilderness, so the team decided to stay overnight in the town.
Sharpblade chose a row of connected civilian houses as a foothold. Shen Shian and Shen Xun walked into one of the buildings and found that the tap water was still usable. They killed zombies for more than two hours in succession. It was unbearable, so I prepared to take a shower first.
Xiong Manshan and others did not have this demand, and decided to go out after a simple cleaning of the house. Although it is estimated that the food could not be found, even if it can be found, it has been more than a year since the virus broke out. . But the town is so big, maybe you can find other useful things.
The southeastern side was disturbed by wood zombies with tree roots and vines, and the building was half of it, almost unable to settle down, so a group of people walked directly north along the main road after going out. At this point, the sun was still dazzling. The place where the center of the road was directly shot for a long time almost smoked, and even wearing shoes felt hot feet.
Picking up the shadow of the building, I walked slowly for seven or eight hundred meters, and the green that stood at the entrance to the north of the town suddenly came into view.
"Lying trough," Liu Fangzhou exclaimed "a big tree"
It was a willow tree. I do n’t know how many years it has. The cross section is almost as wide as the road. The green wicker is hanging down and prospering like a waterfall. The tree trunk is the center to isolate a semi-closed space with a radius of about 5 meters. All are fresh and soft green.
Other survivors have discovered this huge willow tree before them. They gathered around the willow tree in twos and threes, wondering and wondering. Several adult men opened their arms and gestured around the tree. "Good guy, this tree needs at least seven or eight people to hug it."
"It's estimated that such a thick tree is fine."
"No wonder this is called Yangliu Town, and I don't know how many years ago such a tree was planted."
"Look at the annual rings." Someone joked. "Why not cut it."
When the wind blew, thousands of willow branches rustled in the wind.
Xiong Manshan dialed the opening cloth-like wicker and walked in and turned his head out to greet "Hurry up, come in here so cool"
The sun is scorching outside, but the inside is densely shaded. The lush willow branches and leaves will block most of the heat waves. In such weather, they are kept cool and the breeze blows, which is extremely cool and comfortable.
Xu Ge and others quickly sat down under the tree against the willow tree, and the willow leaves fluttered in the breeze, taking away the heat. "This is much more comfortable than blowing air conditioners."
Chen Nan nodded. "It's a pity that there are mutated mosquitoes at night. Otherwise, if you put a mosquito net to sleep under this, you will absolutely feel that you don't even make a dream at dawn."
Xiong Manshan probes "Brother Chen Nan, gave birth to a watermelon, and eats watermelon with a small breeze, it is called sultan."
Chen Nanbao happened to carry watermelon seeds. The two seeds were taken out in the soil, and four large watermelons of ten kilograms were born in the blink of an eye.
This kind of seed was cultivated by Shen Shi'an in the space for the second time. The thin watermelon skin was crisp and big and sweet, and the juice was splashed with a bite.
Xiong Manshan holding the melon and eating happily, suddenly felt the left shoulder was beaten.
Sitting on his left is Liu Fangzhou, "What are you doing in the boat, don't make trouble eating melons."
Liu Fangzhou inexplicably "I didn't do anything."
"You didn't do anything to fight," the voice did not fall, and was beaten again on the right shoulder.
Xiong Manshan turned his head to the right "Hey, Yuan'er, I didn't expect you to learn badly"
Tao Yuan is more inexplicable "what"
"You still pretend to me, I know oh!" Xiong Manshan covered his beaten head again, and when he looked up, he found that a branch of willow was flexibly swinging from left to right like a little snake, and suddenly stretched down, so that it was too fast Covering the ears snatched half of the watermelon that Xiong Manshan chewed.
Me, this willow is really fine
Just as Xiongmanshan fell into a state of stalemate, he suddenly became abject.
Thousands of willow branches that originally sent a cool breeze with the gentle breeze, suddenly seemed to have their own consciousness, twisted into hundreds of thick green tentacles, and surviving towards the cold under the tree. Attacked at the same time
Xiong Manshan reacted very quickly and was faster. Almost all five teammates, including Lu Xiuyuan, were sent out of the shade of willow trees in an instant, but others did not have such good luck. The tentacles were tangled and sturdy, swinging wildly in the air.
Liu Fangzhou was dumbfounded "beating, beating the willow"
Shen Shi'an had just taken a shower, and relying on her superior earpower, she heard the screams from afar.
At the same time, an emergency call for help from Liu Fangzhou and others came on the communicator placed on the stool along with the dirty clothes
Shen Shian asked for directions and rushed out with Shen Xun dressed as fast as possible. When the intact figure of Liu Fangzhou and others appeared in the field of vision, he could not help being relieved. The shadow took all the attention
What is this
Xiong Manshan and others saw them as if they finally found their backbone, and quickly waved to greet "Captain Xun Ge"
Shen Shi'an and Shen Xun ran past "what happened"
Xiong Manshan is still in a state of shock. "We can't figure it out anymore. A good willow tree says it's crazy."
Tao Yuan reminded "Don't stand too close, as soon as you get close, you will be attacked by branches. It's extremely fast."
A total of nineteen people were by willow branches. They were still thrown around in the air like sacks, some people were still screaming, and some people only left a weak moaning 039, others There was no sound.
Liu Fangzhou said, "At present, they are still alive, but according to Liu Shujing, he will die sooner or later."
"Isn't the mutant plant only strengthening its own characteristics," Lu Xiuyuan is puzzled. "Unless it can be moved originally, such as the man-eating flower of the head of the Furong regiment Du, other plants have never seen it will actively attack. Yeah, what's the situation with this willow tree "
Su Ge suddenly warned, "Will someone else secretly control if there are hidden wood abilities or wood zombie zombies nearby?"
"No," Liu Fangzhou was very determined. "I have felt all around, up and down, there can be no one or a zombie hiding. However, since this willow tree suddenly went crazy, a small beam of light appeared from where the willow tree was. group."
"Aren't you able to sense the plants?" Liu Fangzhou can only sense the creatures with obvious action ability, such as human animals and zombies.
"Yeah, so I think this willow tree is fine"
Shen Shian asked "What kind of light group"
"It's green. It's similar to the wood-based abilities or wood-based zombies, but it's very small. It flutters suddenly like a ghost fire. At first, I thought I was too scared to have hallucinations."
In the moment when everyone exchanged information, members of other organizations also arrived one after another. They were equally shocked by this abnormality, and I didn't know how to react. A fire-powered person tried to set fire to the tree. The flaming fire dragon just spewed out, and immediately left a black mark on the thick trunk of the willow tree. Willow shook as if it hurt, and even the swing stopped.
The "Fire Attack Effective" ability is overjoyed, and is preparing to make persistent efforts. A thick thigh branch sweeps out at a speed that is difficult to catch with the naked eye, wraps the attacker around his waist, and also lifts into the air to swing wildly, and the swing speed is faster than before More intense.
Shen Shian clearly heard the sound of the broken bones of the trapped person, his face sinking "retreat"
As soon as the words fell, dozens of thick branches suddenly grew on the huge willow trunk, and the whole tree was like an irritated ancient sea monster giant, waving its thick tentacles to expand twice than before. The rest of the attack range madly attacked the onlookers.
The ground was dusty, and cracks were pulled out by hard and flexible branches. Liu Fangzhou and others were either transported to a safe zone by Xiongmanshan, or they reacted in time and backed away for a while. Shen Shian followed two backflips and stably landed. On the ground, Shen Xun directly grabbed one of the branches, and pulled it hard. The flexible branch was stretched straight immediately, as if it would be pulled off the trunk at any time.
The swaying tentacles gave a slight pause, and then more branches rushed toward Shen Xun with a sharp breaking sound.
Shen Xun backhanded 039 with a Tang sword and cut half of them. The other half was blocked by Shen Shi'an who rushed over in a flash, and the branches shattered by the two gods fell to the ground.
The two looked at each other, and at the same time stood up and rushed towards the willow tree.
One person is as strong and elegant as a cheetah, and one person is powerful and strong like a wolf. It flexibly shuttles between the branches that are shaking more and more crazy, and the sword light is like an electric sword shadow like frost. Far beyond the attack range of Willow.
The tacit understanding of the core team members has already become natural in countless battles. The two of Shen Shian just rushed into the tentacle net of Liu Shujing. Lu Xiuyuan immediately propped up the transparent wall in mid-air. Catch a person, and then be picked up by Xiong Manshan and handed over to Tao Yuan for treatment.
Xu Ge and Chen Nan originally planned to rush into the war circle to help, but later found that the two captains who did not need to help the soldiers at hand seemed to be born to be the killers of the willow spirit. An old willow tree more than five meters thick, twenty meters high and leafy, was cut into a bare willow trunk, and no leaves were left.
Xiong Manshan and others walked on the ground with broken branches and leaves. "Oh, I'm going. No wonder they all say that the bald, old, and bright are ridiculous. This hair is really long." They are all short and stupid.
Xu Ge carefully examined the trunk twice. "I think this tree seems to have its own consciousness."
Shen Shi'an nodded. "I feel the same way."
This thing sounds extremely incredible. Zombie evolved self-awareness. It is easy to understand. After all, it was originally a human. But how does a plant evolve self-awareness? It does not even have the most basic neural structure. Liu Shuchengjing's remarks are at most only talkative. It is really a fact to tell others how many people will believe. Who is really stupid?
Tao Yuan laughed, "If Tang Song knew he had to be happy, he would be crazy."
Shen Xun asked Liu Fangzhou: "You just said that a green light mass can be induced from this tree"
"Correct."
"Can I still sense it now"
"can."
Shen Xun raised his hand and touched it on the tree trunk. He didn't know whether it was because of fear or itch. He shook the tree trunk while shaking, like a leaf in the wind and a pitiful posture. Touching the position of the tree trunk near the root, Shen Xun stopped. "There is a wood crystal nucleus."
"What" several exclamations sounded simultaneously.
Shen Shian asked "Are you sure?"
Shen Xun nodded, "Ok, I can sense it, and the level should not be low, at least it is a tertiary crystal nucleus."
Crystal nuclei are only produced in zombies and humans. This is undoubtedly not even in mutant animals.
So how did a high-grade wood crystal nucleus run into an old willow tree that looks at least a few hundred years old?
"Wait a minute," Liu Fangzhou suddenly reacted. "If the crystal nucleus is in the body of the willow tree and there are no obvious scars on the trunk, so the crystal nucleus cannot be artificially stuffed in, it does not mean that the willow tree is in nature. Wrapped crystal nuclei during growth "
The growth of the tree is the top and lateral split growth, that is, the height of the roots will not change. You carved a stamp on the annual tree, and the stamp will still be at the original height after ten or twenty years. Shen Xun ’s location of the crystal nucleus is less than a foot high, which means that when the crystal nucleus and this willow tree meet, the willow tree is just a small sapling.
But the point is, this old willow tree seems to have grown for at least a few hundred years. Where did it come from?
"There is only one explanation," Shen Shian said. "This willow tree is not as old as it looks. The reason why it grows so big is because of the crystal nucleus."
"Brother Tang and Ruan soft said that the crystal nucleus is very likely to make some form of DNA polymer," Liu Fangzhou's eyes brightened. "Maybe the willow tree absorbed the energy of the crystal nucleus and inadvertently merged a part of humans. DNA, so you can generate your own consciousness "
As for what kind of process and chemical reaction is inside, then he does not know. Anyway, he is just a high school student.
Tao Yuan nodded. "The Ark makes sense."
If this willow tree grows so large because it absorbs the energy of the crystal nucleus, then it should be reasonable to reduce the volume by retracting the energy back to the crystal nucleus. All wood powers follow this principle when manipulating plants .
Shen Shian's eyes flashed slightly, staring at Willow "Can you zoom out."
Willow didn't respond.
Shen Shi'an pulled out his long sword "Will I help you"
The trunk of the willow tree trembles with a sense of grievance, and then shrinks in a circle at a speed that is visible to the naked eye under the eyes of everyone, and finally is pulled out of the ground by Shen Shi’an like pulling a radish and turned to Chen Nan. You're done. "Liu Shujing can only be best given to Chen Nan. If he can control it properly, it will greatly improve Chen Nan's combat effectiveness.
I thought about it and added a sentence, "This thing seems to be not low in intelligence, and its temperament is quite wild. I am afraid that it needs to be tuned to teach 039. It must be confirmed that it is fully tamed before it can be used for combat."
Chen Nanxi did not win. He decided that the key to the combat ability of wood-based abilities was fighting plants. Devil vines had more defenses but insufficient attacks. So when he dealt with the cockroach tide last time, he was particularly envious of Du Mingyue ’s extremely powerful attack. Mutant cannibalism, how to find a similar plant originally, how to find it, I did not expect to fall directly from the sky.
With this willow monster that fights like crazy, and then complements the advantages of Devil Vine, his combat effectiveness can at least increase by more than three times.
Not to say anything at the moment, I immediately took over the radish-like willow essence. In order to prevent it from temporarily turning against water, I specially urged the Devil Vine to wrap it up tightly and put it in a waist weapon bag.
Liu Fangzhou had a whimsy, and greeted Xiong Manshan and others to put all the branches off the ground and put them away. "Isn't that the inadvertent insertion of willows and trees, which means that the willows are good to feed, in case these branches also bring human DNA, and when they grow up, Can you swing wildly? Then, let Brother Nan surround the courtyard wall of our sharp-edged base, and give a circle to anyone who dares to get close, better than any protection. "
Shen Shian had to admit that there was a little truth in what he said. In the end, all branches were stored in the space by him.
After so much tossing, the sky had gradually darkened, and everyone began to go back.
The weapon bag around Chen Nan's waist moved, and the willow tree spirit seemed to want to grow a branch and secretly escape, but immediately was noticed by Jia Mu, who was carrying Chen Nan on his back, releasing the power to make the devil vine tighten again and tighten the willow tree spirit. The three layers of inner and outer layers are tightly bound.
Willow Spirit is like a little chick whose fate has pressed his throat, completely unmoved.
Willow spirit are you a devil
