Chapter 25 Contract Partner Vines
The general and the minister were fast, and although they were hit a few times, they were not too lucky compared to the four people. They ran out of the attack range early and stomped their feet on the spot. Humans are too weak.
Fortunately, the beating was worth it. The vines had already started burning, and the flames illuminated most of the sky. I just don’t know if the container can withstand it. If it was melted into a block of iron, their work tonight would be in vain.
The four of them collapsed in the corner, each one more miserable than the last, their clothes torn to shreds and bloody. The four women, wanting to save their dignity, subconsciously protected their faces, leaving no visible flesh on their bodies, especially Yunshui Yao, whose arms and legs were exposed. Her tender skin was completely covered in blood and flesh, a truly tragic sight.
"Oh my god, if I get a scar, how can I show myself? Girl Lan, do you have any medicine to remove the scar?"
Lan Shiruo shook her head. "I don't know, but we searched the beauty salon, so it should be there. Let's look for it someday."
"That's good. Oh, I'm so heartbroken. They're all fed with milk every day. I'm so pissed off."
"It's ok, old auntie. It's good enough that you can keep your life. It would be more domineering if you leave some scars." There is a man living in the body of Miaomiao Loli. No wonder she awakened her supernatural powers.
Yunshui Yao rolled her eyes at her and said, "Little girl, you are ignorant. Wait until you meet a man you like in the future and then you will cry."
"Well, shall we just watch and not do anything?" He Lian looked at the flames rising into the sky from the twisting body of the vine. His heart was agitated and he couldn't calm down for a long time. This was the first time he had done such an exciting thing in his twenty-something years of life.
"I can't do it. Just watch it for now. If it's not dead even after the fire is out, I'll shoot a few more arrows at it. Be careful, everyone. We smell of blood and might attract other things."
A few people realized later that they had become dangerous. "Why don't we leave here?"
"Leaving is more dangerous. Who knows what's on the road? Staying here is at least our territory, and we won't be caught off guard."
After thinking about it, a few people decided to stay where they were.
The vines twisted more and more weakly, and after half an hour, they stopped completely. The general went over to test it several times and confirmed that it was dead. Only then did they feel relieved.
"I have to go get the thing that can save my life." Yunshui Yao walked away with his teeth grimacing. He just started to feel pain. The pain had just subsided and he didn't feel anything.
Miaomiao followed closely behind, "Me too, I can't lose my iron ball."
The two of them walked swayingly like ducks. Lan Shiruo and He Lian looked at each other and walked over as well.
The generals and ministers stomped their feet as they patrolled the surroundings, and any foolish people were killed immediately.
Miaomiao and Yunshuiyao were sifting through a pile of charred vines, with He Lian helping. Lan Shiruo walked around the container, inspecting it. The quality was good, and it hadn't been warped or deformed even after being burned for so long. "You two should move aside for now. I'll collect it and then I'll look for it later."
The three people stepped aside, and Lan Shiruo waved her hand, and a pile of containers disappeared from the spot. The vines on them broke into countless sections and piled on the ground, forming a small hill of earth.
Miaomiao Hercules dug around for a while, and black dust flew all over the sky. He found the two iron balls that were burned black, and rubbed them in his arms with a heartbroken look.
Yunshui Yao was still searching with her butt sticking out. She looked like she had just been fished out of an ash pit, dark and grimy, without any of her usual charm and allure.
"I'll go and bury my mother at the bottom."
He pulled the whip tightly and pulled it out, pulling out a small seedling. "Tsk tsk, it's really lucky." He tore it off and threw it away.
Who would have thought that the little seedling, which was so weak that it could be killed by just one finger, would actually come back to life and run around clinging to Yun Shuiyao's hand.
Yunshui Yao screamed in fear. Three people and a mastiff quickly gathered around to help, but it was of no use at all. They had to watch helplessly as the seedlings drilled into Yunshui Yao's flesh through the wound.
Yunshui Yao's face turned pale, and he inexplicably calmed down. "Am I going to die? Although I'm very unwilling, it's not unacceptable. Considering the friendship we've had for over a month, can you please agree to my request?"
Miaomiao's eyes were filled with tears, and she no longer argued with Yunshui Yao, "Auntie, don't say that. We will definitely find a way to save you."
Yunshui Yao had a carefree air of someone who had seen through the mundane world. "Little girl, you're naive. I've lived for so many years, there's nothing I don't understand. Don't worry, I can accept it. I've only been protected by this body for decades, and I don't want to end up like that after I die. So, I hope you can kill me before I get sick, and then cremate me. That's all I have. Can you help me?"
"Shui Yao?" He Lian burst into tears, not knowing what to say, and held Yun Shui Yao's hand tightly.
Yunshui Yao smiled and took her into his arms to comfort her, "It's okay, it will be over soon."
"Wow, old auntie, please don't die. I don't want you to die." Miaomiao cried loudly and threw herself into Yunshui Yao's arms, heartbroken.
Isn't Yunshui Yao afraid of death? She is afraid too, but in the current situation, what's the point of being afraid? Then the three of them hugged each other and cried to the sky.
Lan Shiruo
The general's purple eyes were full of disgust. Humans were the strangest and most terrifying creatures in the world, which scared the mastiff to death.
"Okay, don't cry yet, you won't die."
Three people crying breathlessly
"Sister, what do you mean?"
Lan Shiruo ignored Miaomiao and grabbed Yunshuiyao's hand. "Look at yourself. Are the wounds mostly healed?"
The three of them looked over at the same time. Don't say it, it really is, "What's going on?"
"It should be that they've recognized their master. Mutated plants and animals can sign a contract with a person with special abilities, becoming master and servant, or even partners. They walk together through life and death, and can be considered the closest and most loyal family. However, signing a contract depends on chance. The two parties must choose each other, and they must also be compatible. It's usually difficult to accomplish. Shui Yao is lucky. In the future, you'll have an extra helper. Now you can try sensing it. It's in your flesh and blood, and spiritually, you can have simple communication. When you become familiar with it, or advance to a higher level, you'll be able to communicate with it."
"So awesome?" Miaomiao and He Lian were envious. They had just cried so many tears in vain. "Is this the vine that bullied us just now?"
Lan Shiruo shook her head, "I don't know, you should ask Shui Yao."
Miaomiao and He Lian looked at Yunshui Yao eagerly.
Yunshui Yao was filled with excitement and confusion. He tried to sense it and actually got a weak response. "Yes, it's the vine from before, but it's seriously injured. I need to rest and can't do anything for the time being."
Miaomiao exploded, "No, we were bullied so badly just now, we can't just let it go like this, we have to fight back."
Yunshui Yao began to defend his son, "It's almost done. It's been burning for so long, why didn't you say anything? It's just breathing air left, and you don't know how to be magnanimous."
Miaomiao gritted her teeth, "It wasn't me who burned it, I haven't avenged myself at all."
Yunshui Yao twisted her waist and said, "Then you should go find Lan Yatou and ask her why she avenged you. It's really too much. If she doesn't give you an explanation, you can beat her up."
