Chapter 271 Taking Root in the Village



"You mean, you saw with your own eyes that dark brown plant killing someone?" The village chief looked at the two of them in disbelief.

The village chief's two children, Weng Bao's mother and sister, were also stunned by the news. Plants actively killing people is only known in their legends.

Weng Bao nodded and said affirmatively: "It was the woman who led the group today, and a blond man, who were killed by the brown branch."

When the village chief heard his words, he was shocked. But he was even more excited. Their people worshipped mountain spirits the most. A rootless plant could actually distinguish right from wrong and kill people. It was like a mountain god.

"Whose plants could they be?" The village chief's daughter asked the question the village chief wanted most.

Before these people appeared, there were no such plants in the village, so these plants must have been brought in by the two groups of people today. But the brown plants killed the latter group of people, so they were the plants of the former ones, and it was not certain whose they belonged to.

Thinking of the people in front of him, there was a hint of hesitation in the village chief's eyes.

Weng Bao was stunned by the question. They really didn't know about this situation. Did they see it? But what was certain was that those plants definitely did not belong to the bad guys.

Seeing that they really didn't know, the village chief didn't ask any more questions.

As long as they don't leave the village for the time being, this question will be answered sooner or later. It seems that I have to find a way to arrange it tomorrow to prevent them from leaving early in the morning.

However, after listening to Weng Bao's story, the village chief already had his own guesses in his mind.

"Remember to notify the people in the village early tomorrow morning so that we can have lunch together at noon." The village chief looked at the three boxes of instant noodles in the corner and reminded Zhan Bei who was about to leave.

Zhan Bei glanced at the three boxes of instant noodles before responding, "Okay."

For the entire night, the only two people in the entire village who had a good sleep were Nan Muran and Xiaobai.

But Nan Muran was the only one who slept until noon and then got up leisurely.

"Sister Nan, the village chief said there will be lunch in the village today. We can go there to eat together." Xiaobai, who came in from outside, saw Nan Muran ready and reminded her with a smile.

Nan Muran was stunned. Why was the village chief so generous? Did he have any plans?

Even though she was skeptical, she still asked, "Do you want to eat instant noodles?"

"Well, there are also potatoes, sweet potatoes, and greens. I heard that eggs and bacon slices are also added." Xiaobai's eyes lit up. Just by hearing these ingredients, she felt that the meal was delicious.

Nan Muran naturally had no objection to having a free meal: "Okay, let's go together and pay the room fee to the village chief."

"Room fee?" Xiaobai was a little stunned. When did they have to pay the room fee?

Nan Muran nodded: "We can't let them stay here for free, it will make them feel unbalanced."

Xiaobai has never understood the ways of the world, otherwise she would not have been a pillar of a cultural troupe and would not have been ostracized and had to be tortured in the company. But she understood that Nan Muran must have her own reasons for doing this, so she just needed to cooperate.

After the two of them left the house, Nan Muran was stunned when she saw the thick blood-red vines standing on the ground: "What's going on?"

There was nothing here last night, so how could a level 5 mutant plant suddenly appear out of nowhere?

Hearing Nan Muran's words, the tree man, Xiao Liu and Xiao Bai on the side came over directly.

Next, Nan Muran was immersed in the chattering of the four little ones, trying to pick up the key points in their scattered narrations, and then Nan Muran roughly understood what happened last night. She glanced at the closed door not far away, and the people inside were still there. It seemed that these people did not plan to stay overnight.

And they were waiting for someone. Nan Muran couldn't help frowning after hearing the news. Jieshan is a good place. There are quite a lot of teams, big and small, official, private, and even foreign.

But these things are not worth worrying about now, so she squatted down and looked down at the shrunken red vines: "You are growing up very fast."

Chi Ye felt Nan Muran's powerful pressure and wished he could burrow directly into the soil.

But after hearing her words, it couldn't help being curious, so it just tilted its head, looking extremely stupid and cute.

"How about you just settle down here? I see that you all like this hot spring very much. I can help you talk to the village chief and ask him to agree to let you stay." Nan Muran was already accustomed to the simplicity of plants, and continued to speak to Chi Ye patiently.

Xiao Liu and the others always look for opportunities to wander around this hot spring. Nan Muran naturally knows this. She guessed that there are substances in the hot spring that are good for mutant plants. It just so happens that this little guy has lost his contractor and has nowhere to go. It is a good choice for him to stay. It is good for both of them.

Chiye repeated hesitantly: Take root here.

Nan Muran nodded: "Just settle down here. In the future, the people in the village will take care of you, and you can also protect them by the way."

Chiye was a little dazed. It was a long time ago that it took root. It seemed that it had been following its contractor for a long time, so long that it had forgotten that plants could take root in one place and grow into a world.

Shu Ren: Ranran’s suggestion is very good, you should think about it carefully.

After all, not every mutant plant can encounter a being like Ran Ran. They just sign a contract with a plant-based mutant and enjoy her provision. It is not as comfortable as growing in the soil, not to mention that there are special hot springs here that can help the mutant plants grow.

After the tree man’s reminder, Chiye came back to his senses and nodded quickly: Okay, I want to stay here and take root.

Seeing that it was willing, Nan Muran stood up and went to the village chief's house at the entrance of the village with Si Ye.

"Is that mutant plant willing to stay in the village?" After hearing Nan Muran's words, the village chief felt his heart pounding.

According to Nan Muran, the level five mutant plants are very powerful. If they stay in the village, they will be like a guardian angel to the people in the village.

Nan Muran nodded: "If you agree, I will tell it. Plants like soil and water the most. It should be very happy."

For the first time, the village chief lost his composure and kept nodding: "Of course I agree, but..."

The vine belonged to that woman and was so strong. If it took root and instead of protecting the entire village it came to take revenge on everyone, I'm afraid none of these people would survive.

Nan Muran naturally understood the village chief's thoughts and looked at him with a faint smile: "Plants are the purest and simplest, they don't have so many thoughts. Since it is willing to stay, it will not regret it and retaliate against you."
