“Is this a plant or an animal?”
Han Xiaoxiao stood among the clumps of plants and couldn't help but ask.
“Is this a plant or an animal?”
Xu Xuening stood in the big pit in the middle of the bird's nest and couldn't help asking.
“Is this a plant or an animal?”
The hunted team members, trapped among various plants, couldn't help but ask.
"This..." Professor Yang, panting, reached out to hold his eye in place to appear more authoritative and scholarly, but his hand found nothing. His eye had fallen somewhere during his desperate run. "Of course it's a plant. Judging by its structure..."
"Plants can eat people!" Duomu shouted, unable to bear it any longer. One of his legs was entangled in black vines, and he was hanging upside down from a tall poplar tree. His body swayed back and forth, second by second, like an ancient pendulum. It wasn't long before he felt all the blood in his body rushing to his brain. By the time the doctor arrived, they would undoubtedly diagnose him with a cerebral hemorrhage.
"This is the price you pay for not learning!" Professor Yang, without his gold-rimmed glasses to disguise his refined academic demeanor, couldn't help but resurface with the shrewd demeanor of his hometown thugs from decades ago. "You guys, haven't you heard of Rafflesia and pitcher plants? Who says plants can't eat meat?"
"But……"
"No buts. Brats, quickly take out the knives in your hands and cut off these things. If we hang on for a while, we might end up in a spider hole."
"A spider hole?" Duomu couldn't help but yell after hearing this. "This isn't the Spider Cave, Professor Yang. I'm a coward. Don't scare me like that."
"I'm so scared! I've been studying plants for decades. When plants get smart, they're smarter than you, weaklings."
Professor Yang, trapped in a ball of yellow-green fur, sneezed repeatedly.
"A-choo, A-choo!"
Every time he moved, the fur next to him would fly into his nasal cavity, causing him to sneeze more.
Everyone knew that they had to leave here quickly, but how to leave became their problem.
"Let's go find Lao Chang and Xiao Han first. They're the only two who can get us out safely. Actually, Miss Xu can do it too. She has quite a few fire-breathing devices."
After Professor Yang said this, the stubborn Captain Shi had to nod in agreement.
"I said before that I was going to save Miss Xu, but you have to leave here." Duomu also shouted, but received a cold look from Captain Shi. Duomu shrank his head and closed his mouth.
"You just know how to talk. There's no point in saying so much at this time. Hurry up." Professor Yang couldn't help but snorted coldly.
Captain Shi also knew that the current situation was dangerous. These plants had mutated and common sense could not be used. It would be safer to follow Professor Yang's advice at this time. However, he hated the situation caused by Han Xiaoxiao's lack of organization and discipline and leaving the team even more.
"You guys, go over to the right first and help Professor Yang."
…
Xu Xuening thought that the biggest threat was the rotten roots in front of him, but he didn't notice that when the rotten roots were eating, a thick black fog emerged again.
As she looked at the thick black fog, she thought of the strange thing that had appeared in the desert before.
The magical black mist that dissolves oil!
I didn't expect that thing to follow me here, but these two things are obviously not in the same gang.
The thick black fog quickly became entangled with the red roots of rotten flesh, and it seemed that there was no distinction between you and me.
"sister!"
Han Xiaoxiao's voice came over, passing through the gaps between the roots and floating into Xu Xuening's ears.
"Why is this kid here?" Xu Xuening was surprised after hearing the voice.
She saw that she was standing in the middle of a pile of rotten meat. If she wanted to get out, she would have to step on the rotten meat. How... could she get out?
She hesitated for a long time, then tried to take out a small toy and threw it on the rotten meat. The toy was immediately rolled up into a ball until it was torn into pieces.
Looking at the toy fragment, she hesitated for a long time, her eyes continuing to look around, looking for a way to escape.
…
Han Xiaoxiao looked at where she was standing and saw that the plants had slowed down. The plants surrounding the bird's nest were almost motionless.
"0101 Attention"
A familiar voice caught his attention. He looked down and saw a walkie-talkie hanging on a tree. It was the one their team had used this time.
Han Xiaoxiao carefully crawled over and picked up the walkie-talkie, then heard, "Red alert! These plants are already in a defensive state. Be careful and try not to touch them. Once you find Han Xiaoxiao, retreat immediately."
Hearing this, Han Xiaoxiao was about to turn on the walkie-talkie to reply to them, but she immediately threw the walkie-talkie far away.
He must go and rescue his sister.
"Xiaoxiao"
Han Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped what she was doing. This voice...
He shouted, "Sister, sister... where are you?"
"Xiaoxiao...I'm inside the tree roots."
"Tree roots?" Han Xiaoxiao looked around for a long time but couldn't find any tree roots. It was not until he saw the bird's nest that he thought of this strange thing.
