Chapter 619 Chapter 621 Nine-branched Blood Tree
The ordinary survivors in the Guxizhou Safe Zone have been transferred to the Baishanshu Safe Zone one after another. Now only the military is stationed in the Guxizhou Safe Zone.
"Do you want money or a way to make a living?" The proprietress raised her head and gave him a blank look, then lowered her head and went back to work.
"For people like us who live on the edge of a knife, there is no way to make money!" The sturdy man shook his head with a wry smile and walked out staggeringly.
The proprietress looked up at the sturdy man staggering out and sighed softly.
Rong Xianxian sat in a corner of the tavern. In front of her was a jar of wine, a dish of braised meat, and a plate of cold vegetables. She sat quietly, looking at the various people in front of her and listening to the noisy conversation.
Most of these people are the original residents of the Baishanshu Safe Zone. There are also some caravans from other places passing by here and preparing to go to the Guxizhou Safe Zone. Some are transferred from Guxizhou.
From the conversations among these people, she had already gotten a general idea of the basic situation in Guxi Province. She opened the jar of wine in front of her, and a strong aroma of wine instantly wafted out, causing all eyes in the tavern to look over.
Rong Xianxian was confused, because what she just ordered was the most common and most sold wine here.
"Madam, how much is this wine?" A customer couldn't help but stand up and pointed at the jar of wine in front of Rong Xianxian and asked.
"There is only one jar of that wine, and I'm giving it to the right person. I can't sell it!" the proprietress answered loudly.
The proprietress winked at Rong Xianxian playfully. Rong Xianxian looked at her again and again and confirmed that she had never met the proprietress before.
This wine is indeed good wine. Being looked at differently by people who have never met it before, Rong Xianxian felt warm in her heart. She poured a glass. The wine was amber in color, clear and transparent. With a gentle shake, tiny ripples appeared. She took a sip and it tasted sweet. Then, a warmth flowed through her blood and spread to every part of her body.
This wine should be brewed from spiritual fruits. It is strong but not overpowering, sweet but not greasy, and nourishes the blood. It is truly top quality.
Rong Xianxian drank the glass of wine and came to the counter with the wine jar. "Madam, such a good wine, aren't you afraid that I can't afford it?"
"I've already told you it's a free gift. No charge!" said the proprietress with a smile.
"In that case, I can't take your wine for free. This is a small gift in return. Please accept it! See you again if we're lucky!" Rong Xianxian placed two bottles of Huiyang Jiuni Dan on the counter and walked out of the tavern carrying the jar of wine.
Having obtained almost all the information she wanted to find out, Rong Xianxian walked to a remote alley and entered the foggy space through the communication domain stone.
Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo were picking vegetables in the vegetable garden. Rong Xianxian went into the house first to see Ning Qingyun. With the help of Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo, they cooked dinner together. After dinner, Rong Xianxian told Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo to finish their homework and rest early, and then she went to bed early.
The next day, Rong Xianxian woke up to the smell of rice porridge. Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo had already prepared breakfast.
When I woke up, I felt refreshed and all the fatigue from yesterday was gone.
After Rong Xianxian came out of the foggy space, she found the parked vehicle and left the safe zone.
After leaving the city, she released Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo from the foggy space and drove all the way towards Guxizhou.
Rong Xianxian drove towards Guxizhou. The further she drove, the fewer people there were. In the afternoon, she arrived at the border of Guxizhou. The intersection at the border was guarded by the army, and Rong Xianxian was stopped.
"The Guxizhou area is now under military blockade. No one is allowed to enter. Please go back!" said the garrison soldier expressionlessly.
Rong Xianxian took out the conscription order and handed it over. When the garrisoned soldier saw the three big words "Conscription Order" and the seal below, he immediately saluted Rong Xianxian and waved to his companions. Two soldiers ran out and removed the roadblocks.
Rong Xianxian started the car and drove in.
"Go and deliver a letter to the commander. The person we were told to wait for has arrived." The garrison soldier still had no expression on his face.
After Rong Xianxian entered Guxizhou, he found a secluded environment, changed into protective clothing, activated the invisibility barrier, and flew on a flying carpet towards the out-of-control area where the dead blood tree was.
She didn't know what the capital was planning, so since she was already there, she just did what she needed to do.
Since the recruitment order mentioned that there were scientific researchers trapped, it must be true, so the top priority is naturally to rescue them.
In addition, the sap of the dead blood tree can be used to extract drugs that prolong vitality, which is very precious. Now that we are here, we can't return empty-handed.
Rong Xianxian did it right away. She flew in the air and could find her target area just by the colors reflected from the sky without looking at the map.
The sky corresponding to the dead blood tree area was blood red. Rong Xianxian entered the dead blood tree area, turned on the monitoring headphones, and checked for abnormal movements. According to the clues provided by the authorities, the scientific researchers should be near the original range of the dead blood tree. Rong Xianxian went straight to the center of the dead forest.
Looking at the blood-red soil in the woods, and thinking of the tiny red nematodes flying out from the roots of the dead blood trees, I wonder how many such worms are hidden in this blood-red soil.
Captain Jiang, who was stationed in Guxizhou, was walking around in the tent. A soldier came to report the situation, and Captain Jiang asked, "Did you find the person?"
The soldier stood tall and straight, "Report to the commander, no!"
"What's going on? Didn't Lieutenant Zhang say that the person has already come in? If he has come in, how come we can't find him?" Captain Jiang looked anxious.
The soldier looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, without saying a word or moving. Captain Jiang waved his hand, signaling him to retreat.
After the soldier retreated, Captain Jiang walked around the tent a few more times and finally couldn't help stamping his feet. He really didn't expect that the man would come so soon. Although he didn't see him, since he came with a conscription order, he must have been sent by the higher-ups. Whether or not to launch the booster missile and when to launch it, he should ask the higher-ups before making plans.
Rong Xianxian has arrived at the center of the dead forest. Along the way, she cut down many dead blood tree branches. In the process, she discovered that the dead blood trees also have many differences. There are three-branched dead blood trees, six-branched dead blood trees, and even the one that appears in front of her now is a nine-branched dead blood tree.
Under this nine-branched dead blood tree, there is a huge blood mist swamp. The blood-colored mist is filled with a strong smell of blood, which is suffocating.
Bubbles were bubbling in the blood mist swamp, and blood nematodes as thick as fingers were crawling around the tree roots.
Rong Xianxian felt a headache. It turned out that the barrier bead was attacked by the red nematodes. She had been using the invisibility barrier, but it seemed that the invisibility barrier was useless against the blood nematodes. In order to protect her soul, Rong Xianxian had to remove the invisibility barrier.
