She heard the sound of water!
It's blood!
Is there rotten flesh in the blood?
If you step on it, a lump of rotten flesh will be crushed into tiny pieces and stick to your shoes.
"hiss!"
The ginger shreds gasped in shock; the imagery was so vivid.
Before, when fighting zombies, there were no conditions; the rotting flesh of zombies would splatter all over you. Now there are conditions.
Husband, they haven't officially divorced yet, they're still husband and wife. Since they're husband and wife, it would be a fool not to take advantage of the situation.
Jiang Si convinced herself, sheathed her Tang sword, placed one hand on her cheap husband's neck, lit a cigarette with the other, and coughed lightly: "Um, I won't go down, please go ahead!"
Agares' dark eyes deepened, and his thin lips parted slightly: "No trouble at all!"
He held her lightly in his arms and walked away.
Jiang Si held up the burning willow branch and shone it on, discovering that they were now at the base of a huge black willow tree.
However, its main root is hollow, and the small tendrils are what absorb nutrients.
Tiny, fragmented roots coiled around, like black hair or tiny black worms, swaying and searching for nutrients.
After walking for about 5 minutes, it became increasingly bright.
Jiang Si urged Agares, "Hurry up, Agares, there's light ahead!"
Agares squinted at the light, his pace slowing instead of quickening. He said seriously, "We're underground now. We have no idea what might happen underground. We should be careful!"
Jiang Si looked at the bright spot, which wasn't too far away, and said "Oh," without urging them any further, but her eyes remained fixed on that spot.
The light grew brighter as I walked, and after about 30 steps, I finally arrived at a bright spot.
In the light, there was a high platform, a black platform.
Agares placed the ginger slices on the high platform.
Jiang Si steadied herself, casually pulled Agares below, and dragged him onto the high platform. She then let go and ran towards the bright light.
"So beautiful!" Jiang Si exclaimed, her mouth slightly agape as she gazed at the luminous crystal core, which was larger than a fist.
"What's that?" Agares followed closely to her side and looked in the direction of her gaze. He saw a bright little light bulb, and all the light here was coming from that little light bulb.
Jiang Si swallowed hard: "Would you believe it if I told you it was a luminous pearl?"
Agares' eyes flashed, and he replied seriously, "If you say it's a luminous pearl, I believe it's a luminous pearl; if you say it's a light bulb, I believe it too!"
Jiang Si was taken aback. When did this straight-laced man become so accommodating?
This turn was as if he suddenly had an epiphany, or that he had a new teacher.
“It is the heart of this black willow tree!” Jiang Si stepped forward again, reaching out to the glittering crystal core of the black willow tree, and truthfully said without hiding anything, “Only with it can this black willow tree manipulate its branches, break away from it, and go to farther places to find food for itself.”
"Its food is flesh and blood, human and animal, anything with flesh and blood is its food, which is why you saw so many skeletons on its branches when you first saw this tree!"
Agares asked, "Since this bright object is the heart of the Black Willow tree, what will happen if you pluck it now...?"
"hiss!"
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Si's hand, which was reaching for the crystal core, was burned by the heat on it. She hissed, interrupting Agares's question.
Agares grabbed her hand and opened it to see that her slender, white fingertips were all burned red.
The rational Imperial Marshal, the national idol His Highness Agares, with a cold face, held her hand, took out a healing spray from his spatial button, and sprayed it on her fingers.
A sharp pain shot through her fingertips, and Jiang Si frowned slightly, instinctively trying to pull her hand away: "It hurts!"
Agares held her hand tightly, preventing her from pulling it away. He stared at her fingertips and said in a gentle voice, "It won't hurt, it won't hurt, it'll be over soon!"
Just as he said, the pain subsided after a while.
Once the pain subsided, Agares released his grip.
Jiang Si looked at her perfectly intact hand and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She is not someone who cannot bear pain.
More than 3,000 years ago, when she was fighting zombies alone, she was scratched by a zombie and exhausted, but she did not utter a sound of pain.
Why did this tiny bit of pain seem to be magnified infinitely in front of Agares, making her feel unbearable and wanting someone to comfort and care for her?
Could it be that she had unknowingly developed a dependence on and trust in Agares, so that she didn't want to walk when she heard the ground was dirty, and even though her fingers were only slightly red and not yet broken, she cried out in pain?
"Don't move!" By the time Jiang Si realized what was happening, she saw Agares reaching out to pry open the crystal core. She quickly stopped him, saying, "That's what I'm looking for, you can't touch it!"
Agares withdrew his hand.
Jiang Si exhaled and was about to take over again.
unexpectedly!
With a clang, Agares used his Tang sword, the tip of which was pressed against the crystal core. He flicked it upwards, removing the core, then reversed the blade and handed it to Jiang Si: "Here, I didn't touch it with my hands!"
The crystal core, larger than a fist, shone with a dazzling, blinding light from the tip of his blade. Jiang Si slowly reached out to touch it.
The moment their fingertips touched it, a deafening roar shook the earth.
Ignoring the heat, Jiang Si scooped it up and held it in her hand. Just as she was about to put it into the spatial button, she saw dense black threads shoot out from where the crystal core had been hanging, directly attacking Agares.
Jiang Si blurted out anxiously, "Agares, watch out behind you!"
Agares turned around and slashed back with his Tang sword.
Unexpectedly, those dense black threads were as strong as a shield. His sword, wrapped in spiritual power, did not cut through them. Instead, the sword was entangled by the threads. With a forceful tug, he pulled Agares toward the place where the crystal core was suspended.
"Agares!" Jiang Si held the crystal core in one hand and reached out to pull him with the other, but the black silk thread pulled Agares directly into the place where the crystal core was suspended.
Jiang Si grasped his hand and followed him into the place where the crystal core was suspended.
Agares was dragged along, and with a forceful lift, he pulled his wife, who should have only been holding his hand, into his arms. He held her protectively with one arm and used the other to pull at the thin black silk that was wrapped around him.
The black threads were incredibly tough; even when Agares tore his palm, he couldn't break them, and the black threads dragged him away quickly.
As Jiang Si was about to make her move, the crystal core that wasn't too hot in her hand suddenly felt burning hot in her palm, as if it were alive and trying to burrow into her hand.
Her fingers were connected to her heart, and her palms ached. The pain made her clench her fist tightly, and with a bang, the crystal core of the black willow tree was crushed by her. The enormous and domineering energy entered her body through the wound in her palm.
Even though Jiang Si has a high level of mental strength, when the new domineering energy enters her body, she not only cannot absorb it, but the energy also impacts her body.
It's burning like fire!
It felt like being in an ice cellar. Her head felt like it had been hit hard, making her weak all over, her vision went black, and she felt dizzy. She collapsed into Agares's hard chest. Before losing consciousness, she played a little trick and called out to Agares, "Husband, don't send me to the lab, don't send me to the hospital. Stay with me, you must stay by my side every step of the way, and don't let anyone touch me!"
