Having said that, the little turtle looked at Jiang An with starry eyes full of anticipation, every cell in its body seemingly burning with fighting spirit.
He seemed unable to contain his urge to show his skills, looking eager and impatient.
"Okay, but be careful!" Jiang An whispered a reminder.
Because her rudimentary sense of smell had already begun to work, a rich and unique aroma of ginseng accurately entered her nose.
However, a strong intuition told her that this ginseng excavation operation would probably not go smoothly.
Nevertheless, she eventually nodded in agreement, after all, she was there to protect the little turtle.
Since the little turtle was severely criticized by Jiang An for acting without permission last time, it has learned its lesson.
Now, no matter what I do, I always ask Jiang An for his opinion first, and I no longer dare to act as recklessly as before.
Jiang An felt very gratified and satisfied with the little turtle's transformation.
Although she had never actually taught children, she felt she had done a pretty good job based on her innate instincts.
After receiving Jiang An's approval, the little turtle immediately sped off like an arrow.
But before long, a sudden crisis befell it.
Suddenly, several emerald green vines sprouted from the front of the once peaceful rainforest, sweeping towards the little turtle with astonishing speed like ghosts.
In the blink of an eye, the little turtle was tightly entangled by these flexible yet incredibly strong vines, unable to move.
Immediately afterwards, it seemed as if the entire turtle was being controlled by an invisible force, and was quickly dragged towards a dark corner.
The speed was so fast that it was astonishing. Even Jiang An, who had quick reflexes, could only catch a faint, blurry shadow from behind.
The little turtle was about to be taken away, and the situation was extremely critical!
However, don't underestimate our little turtle; it's not one to be trifled with.
In the blink of an eye, its body rapidly shrank, becoming only the size of a palm.
But at the same time, the vines also shrank and wrapped around it.
Suddenly, the little turtle opened its mouth, and an incredibly sharp, chilling ice arrow shot out like lightning toward the vine.
The vine was clearly caught off guard by the little turtle's unexpected attack and, in unbearable pain, had no choice but to loosen its grip on the turtle.
The little turtle, now free, didn't dare to delay for a moment and quickly dodged away with lightning speed.
Just then, Jiang An's bow and arrows, which he had prepared long ago, finally came in handy.
She held a pair of arrows that exuded a chilling aura in her hand, and after aiming at the target, she shot them without hesitation at a specific location.
A deafening "bang" rang out; it turned out that her arrow had struck the vital part of the main trunk of one of the vines with pinpoint accuracy.
In fact, the reason why Jiang An had remained still was not because he was afraid or hesitant, but because he was secretly observing and looking for the fatal weakness of the vine.
After all, if you blindly cut the vines, they will likely regrow.
At that very moment, when she accurately struck the vine's weak point, the previously arrogant and wildly thrashing vine seemed to suddenly be restrained by some mysterious force, instantly becoming motionless, and then slowly turning into a shriveled and withered pile of leaves.
However, it is important to be wary that the vines on this land are not limited to the one shot by Jiang An...
In an instant, a multitude of vines surged out of the forest like a sudden storm, baring their claws and sweeping menacingly toward Jiang An and the little turtle.
In the blink of an eye, the entire ground was covered with writhing vines, which resembled giant green pythons with scarlet forked tongues, densely packed and terrifying.
Jiang An was momentarily careless and ended up getting tightly entangled by one of the vines.
The weapon she was holding tightly lost its power in that instant, and sharp thorns grew from the vines, stabbing at her skin, about to pierce her flesh and suck her blood.
The little turtle was in a similar situation. Whether it was because the vines possessed sentience or it was purely coincidental, a vine cleverly wrapped around its mouth, rendering its ice arrows and sharp teeth completely ineffective.
Seeing this, Jiang An was extremely anxious. She quickly used all her strength, gritting her teeth and pulling with all her might, to tear the vines tightly wrapped around her body.
With a crisp "crack," the incredibly tough vine snapped in two.
In an instant, her hands, which had been bound, were finally freed, and she regained her freedom!
This time, she was smarter. She no longer blindly confronted the vines head-on, like throwing an egg against a rock.
Instead, it skillfully evaded the attacks of the vines with its agile movements and nimble steps, while always keeping an eye on where the main trunk of these vines was hidden.
It is important to know that the trunk is the key to connecting the roots, and the roots are deeply embedded in the earth. This is undoubtedly the only fatal weakness of the vine!
Time slips away quietly, second by second...
In this thrilling battle, one tree vine and trunk after another was gradually exposed and came into Jiang An's view.
Without hesitation, she wielded her incredibly sharp weapon, and with a swift stroke, the thick vines and tree trunks snapped in two.
And so it went, day after day, until the last vine was mercilessly severed, and the once bustling rainforest finally fell into utter silence.
After catching his breath, Jiang An walked towards the nearest vine to investigate it carefully.
However, the sight before her made her heart tighten, and her eyes narrowed sharply.
It turned out that beneath the layers upon layers of withered branches and leaves, there were countless white bones of various animals, a vast expanse of white as far as the eye could see.
Without a doubt, the flesh and blood of these animals must have been completely sucked away by the greedy vines, leaving only these piles of white bones, silently witnessing their existence in this world.
At this moment, Jiang An suddenly realized: No wonder he was attacked by wolves on the outskirts; it must have been because he was threatened by the vines.
After all, if they continued to stay deep in this dangerous rainforest, there would probably only be one fate awaiting these wolves—to be completely devoured by the vines!
There were 12 vines here, all of which she killed, but unfortunately no treasure chests or other gains were found.
"Mommy, look! What did I find?" The little turtle's excited voice suddenly rang in her mind.
Jiang An looked up at the little turtle and saw a green crystal in its front paw.
Overjoyed, she quickly stepped forward and took the green crystal from the little turtle, examining it closely.
The crystal emitted a faint light and was surrounded by a layer of spiritual energy.
【Plant Crystals: Crystallized plants, a purifying source for the whole body!】
