218 Wow, a vegetable!
Jiang Xin’s words stunned Ning Yao for a moment, and he gradually realized that they were now in the body of the pink flower.
Those "doors" with different mouths are cells, and the suction that just blew from different directions is the method that sends them into these cells.
Once you are locked up, you will be eaten bit by bit by this flower just like the people inside.
This kind of eating will not only affect the body, but there is a high probability that the soul will also be eaten.
This is simply an evil practice!
Although these people in the Qiao family cannot be called gentlemen, they are fundamentally different from evil practitioners.
Now they have become birds of a feather.
"You wait here for me, I'll go take a look." Ning Yao said to Jiang Xin and Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xin shook her head: "We'll go with you."
"It's dangerous there. There are flowers that eat people." Ning Yao said.
Jiang Xin showed her little arms: "My bones are hard, it can't bite it."
Jiang Xiao followed her example and showed her little arms: "Me too."
Ning Yao had no choice but to take them with him: "Then follow me closely."
Jiang Xin nodded obediently: "Yes, I will protect Senior Brother."
Ning Yao: “…” That’s not impossible.
The cells around looked similar, and some had their mouths closed, which meant the cell doors were closed. Some of their mouths were still open, indicating that the prison doors were still open.
We haven't figured out the situation inside yet, so we shouldn't disturb the flower and the people outside.
Ning Yao randomly picked an open cell door, jumped up as light as a swallow, avoided the sharp fangs that flashed coldly in the upper and lower jaws, and entered first.
Inside is a long circular passage with green walls filled with irregular veins, which are the meridians of this flower demon.
Ning Yao carefully checked the place, and after confirming it was safe, he returned to the door and waved to Jiang Xin and the others: "Come in."
Jiang Xin stood still, swung her hands, jumped far away, and jumped hard into the bloody mouth.
Jiang Xiao followed suit and jumped in.
Ning Yao found it interesting and asked Jiang Xiao in a low voice: "Why do you always imitate Xin Xin?"
Jiang Xiao's little face was full of longing: "Senior sister is so amazing, I want to be as amazing as her."
Jiang Xin modestly said: "Just average, third in the world."
[Junior brother really has good vision, hahahaha…]
The voice of her inner thoughts was always very soft; sometimes when it was noisy around her or she was a little far away, she could not hear anything.
The laughter at this moment was particularly loud, and it was obvious that Jiang Xin was very happy.
Ning Yao rubbed her little head, greeted her, and turned to walk forward.
The roots of the flower demon that formed the passage were flickering with a faint light, which was enough for Ning Yao and others to see the world clearly.
The passage is winding and it is unknown where it leads.
It was very quiet at first, because the ground was also made of soft roots, and there was not even the sound of their footsteps.
Walking slowly forward, Ning Yao smelled a rotten smell.
Jiang Xin pressed her nose with her fingers and said in a muffled voice, "It's a half-dead person."
"It stinks." This time it was Jiang Xiao who complained first. He took out a bottle of pills from the children's Xumi Ring and handed it to Jiang Xin, "Senior Sister, take this breath-retaining pill."
Ning Yao was surprised: "How do you have this?"
Breath-holding pills are very expensive.
"Before we went out, Second Senior Brother took us to Lingdan Peak to buy them. Everyone has one." Jiang Xiao said truthfully.
The elixirs from Lingdan Peak are more expensive.
"Is Second Junior Brother so rich?" Ning Yao was a little envious and really wanted to change his career to become a fortune teller.
Jiang Xin said softly, "Second Senior Brother asked the senior brothers from Lingdan Peak to put the account in Dad's name."
Ning Yao: “…”
Suddenly I felt a little sorry for Master.
Never mind, it’s good for him to be a swordsman. At least he won’t be expelled from the sect by his master.
The breath-holding pill took effect, and the three brothers and sisters soon could no longer smell the rotten odor and continued to move forward.
After many twists and turns, Ning Yao stopped with a serious expression.
Jiang Xin poked his head out from behind him and saw a tight net made up of many roots of varying thicknesses not far away, pressing a humanoid creature tightly against the wall of the passage.
The reason why this is called a "humanoid creature" is because you can still vaguely see the outline of a human, but inside...
At least half of them are no longer human.
Green roots spread all over his body like ivy. Through the gaps between them, one could see the flesh and bones of a human being.
The skin that was supposed to cover the flesh and blood was torn apart and fell to the ground like a deflated balloon, in pieces.
The man was facing the wall of the passage, as if he was being caught up from behind by these roots while escaping, and was pushed against the wall of the passage in this posture.
His head was twisted 90 degrees, with broken vertebrae exposed at the back of his neck.
This piece of white vertebrae has a yellowish tint due to malnutrition. Sometimes it is exposed, and sometimes it is hidden behind a dense network of flesh, blood and roots.
Dense green vines coiled around his vertebrae and climbed up, passing through the gap at the back of his neck and into his head, where a light pink flower bloomed in his left eye.
"Wow, a vegetable!" Jiang Xin exclaimed in surprise.
Ning Yao was about to ask what a "vegetative state" meant when he suddenly heard a "crackling" sound.
The "vegetative man" on the wall turned his head with difficulty. As soon as he moved, the dense network of roots and stems that wrapped around his body pressed him down at an even faster speed, preventing him from moving.
The wall of the passage behind this person was deeply sunken, and the outline of a human figure was clearly visible, which showed that such a thing had happened countless times.
"Is anyone there..."
A faint voice sounded in the silent passage.
The "vegetative person" who was pressed against the wall by the roots struggled to turn his right eye, which had not yet bloomed, trying to find the little girl who had just spoken.
Ning Yao motioned for his fellow apprentices to stop where they were, and stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"There really is someone! There really is someone! Were you captured here too?" the "vegetative man" asked excitedly, his body moving subconsciously. When the dense network of roots and rhizomes noticed this, they pressed him down even harder.
The man stopped resisting and asked loudly, "Who are you?"
"We are disciples of Tianshui Sect." Jiang Xin said softly, walking forward and looking at the man carefully.
Ning Yao stopped her and became even more excited when he heard the voice of the "vegetative man": "Are you really disciples of Tianshui Sect? Where is your proof?"
Ning Yao took out his identity jade card and wanted to show it to the other party, but was stopped by Jiang Xin: "Big Brother, this is useless. Brother He from Yanqi Peak is the leader in selling fake identity jade cards outside."
Ning Yao was shocked: "Why did he do this?"
Jiang Xin: “To make money.”
Ning Yao's heart shamefully beat for a second, but he quickly suppressed the beat.
This person is very wary, and it's not like Wuxin who can gain his trust by just using his identity jade token. He has to find another way.
However, even the most convincing jade identity cards are fake, and they are honest and trustworthy fakes produced by Yanqi Peak. How can these disciples of Tianshui Sect prove their identities in public?
Fortunately, Jiang Xin had a full understanding of his own sect, and asked the "vegetative man": "Do you think anyone dares to pretend to be a disciple of Tianshui Sect outside?"
The "vegetative man" who had been very excited about seeing outsiders suddenly became as silent as a chicken and as quiet as a tree.
To be honest, due to the reputation of Tianshui Sect, many genuine disciples dare not reveal their identities outside, for fear of being hunted down to the ends of the earth.
No one dares to pretend.
