On the tranquil plain, the White Spider Girl, holding the little girl in her arms, approached the black tree...
Beibei looked at the black tree getting closer and closer, and the corners of her mouth drooped. Xiaobai must be lying. This is obviously just dried-up tree bark, how can it be delicious?
Seeing that Beibei seemed to be resisting, Xiaobai put her down first and assured her again that he had not lied to her and that the black tree was really delicious.
"Really..."
Beibei narrowed her big eyes slightly, and looked at Xiaobai in front of her with some suspicion as he made a solemn promise.
"Absolutely true."
The white spider girl nodded in affirmation.
"Oh well……"
Seeing this, Beibei stopped thinking and walked towards the black tree in front of her. However, looking at the huge tree in front of her, she couldn't find a place to start...
The girl looked at Xiaobai with a pleading look. The girl also reacted and cut a big gap in the black tree.
So, Beibei closed her eyes and took a bite resignedly. A faint fragrance spread in her mouth.
Beibei opened her eyes in disbelief, and her dark green eyes suddenly lit up.
This black tree meat was surprisingly just like the meat I had eaten before, nutritious and tasty, and tasted like a living thing...
Then the girl stopped hesitating and started drinking in big gulps.
"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Xiaobai, who was standing by, looked at Beibei and nodded with some satisfaction. Although this thing is delicious, she is not used to it. It is better to let Beibei handle it. It will save trouble.
In response, Beibei just raised her hand silently and gave a thumbs up.
So, when Xiao Ming and others arrived, they saw the little girl burying her face in the black tree, biting the black tree in front of her hard.
The white spider girl on the side looked at the other party calmly.
Several people looked at each other, a little confused. Why did Beibei suddenly start chewing on the bark? Was she hungry?
Fortunately, their doubts were soon resolved by the gradually withering black tree before them. Combined with Xiaobai's explanation, Xiao Ming and the other two also understood what was happening.
However, no one had ever seen Beibei chewing on the bark, and they were all curious when they saw the black tree that looked like it had withered life.
Several people waited for a long time until the originally huge black tree shrank to the size of a person.
Around the grassy area, scattered were the shrunken bark that had fallen from the black tree. This strange light tree that once dominated the area had also come to an end...
Xiao Ming and the others looked at the white spider girl with some emotion. If it weren't for her, this light tree would probably grow into a big trouble in the future.
“No more.”
Beibei opened her mouth and smacked her lips to savor the taste. The black tree in front of her could no longer absorb anything, so it must have been completely dead.
Hearing this, Xiaobai slowly approached and looked at the black tree, which had withered to the point where it was only as thick as a person. The girl tightly grasped the black tree with both hands and pulled it out with all her strength.
As the ground cracked in all directions, dozens of meters long tree roots were pulled out one after another, causing cracks on the originally flat lawn.
Looking at the black tree's exaggerated roots, the group carefully examined it. After making sure the black tree was truly dead, they gathered together again.
Yang Yu, Xiao Ming, and Su Xiaoyu all looked at the silk pupa on the ground with anticipation. Then, their brows furrowed in confusion.
This was because although Shangguan Yun'er and the big fox in the silk cocoon had stopped struggling at this time, the strange golden light in their pupils had not yet gone out.
The man and the fox just stared blankly with their eyes open, their pupils unfocused, as if they were stupid.
"Ayun, Ayun..."
Xiao Ming shook Shangguan Yun'er's body, trying to wake her up. Su Xiaoyu on the other side did the same, constantly calling the big fox's name.
However, no matter how they shouted, the other party remained motionless. Questioning this, several people stood up again, inspected the black tree, and even chopped it into pieces, making it deader than dead.
Finally, I went to check the status of the man and the fox, but there was still no response.
This is a difficult time...
"Remember the two-headed monster dog in the original environment..."
Xiao Ming lowered his head in thought and said something.
Shangguan Yun'er and Mengmeng's current situation is exactly the same as the dazed state of the two-headed strange dog they found in the environment.
It seemed as if it had lost its target and became dazed, like a robot that had lost its commands.
Just a body, no soul...
Judging from the current situation, even if Hei Shu is killed, there is no way to release Ayun and the big fox from control.
It can only make them lose their direction and enter a state of silence.
Everyone was starting to feel a bit troubled by this situation. They had eliminated the culprit, but they still couldn't recover. This strange light tree was really a bit troublesome...
A few people sat on the plain in a daze. Xiaobai looked at the somewhat depressed people and sighed softly...
They sat there for a long time, their faces somewhat sad, until the night gradually climbed up the sky, and a cool breeze blew across the plain, bringing fresh air...
However, right now, they weren't in the mood to enjoy a moment of peace. The atmosphere in the air was a bit heavy...
"Let's go back first..."
Xiaobai's calm voice broke the silence of several people.
There's no point in wasting time here. It's better to take the person back first and then think of a solution.
In response to this, Xiao Ming and the other two stood up feeling a little tired and a little depressed.
They all knew that they could not find any way to recover here, and there was little hope if they went back.
Perhaps they could find a solution with the help of the base, but they didn't have any hope of doing so.
The people in the base are already struggling to survive, so how can they have the time to take care of their affairs?
As I thought before, in this apocalyptic world, people die every day, so there is not enough energy to mourn.
Therefore, Yang Yu and Xiao Ming were filled with gratitude for the White Spider Girl's willingness to help find Ayun. Even though Ayun was not in good condition, it was a blessing in disguise.
I just feel a little sad about the ending...
A few dejected figures slowly left the plain, leaving behind only the messy ground, foreshadowing what had happened here.
As the night deepened, and everyone was feeling down, Xiaobai didn't take anyone with him, but headed straight for the city overnight.
Instead, they came to the forest where Su Xiaoyu lived. They rested by the lake in the middle of the forest...
"Xiaoyu, come back to the city with us tomorrow..."
Xiao Ming looked at the little girl with white feathers on her ears and spoke slowly.
