Chapter 2201: The Spirited Vine
If he had not been in charge of the steering himself just now, and the yacht had indeed been moving closer to the shore no matter which way it turned, he would have definitely suspected that he had been betrayed by his men.
Long Yichao and his companions immediately pulled out their guns and were about to shoot Hu Zi. At this point, if they didn't resist and kill them, they would be the ones to die if they were caught by them.
Hu Zi was well prepared, so when Long Yichao and his companions just took out their guns and were raising their hands, Hu Zi and his two companions took the lead in shooting at them.
Their shooting skills were quite accurate, and they directly hit the arms of Long Yichao and others, causing their hands to go numb and they could not hold the guns, so the guns fell to the ground, and the others took the opportunity to immediately arrest them.
Because Hu Zi and his men's guns were equipped with silencers, they didn't make much noise. Although there were some people around who saw the situation here, they were so scared after seeing the scene that they ran away and didn't dare to get close at all.
After seeing Hu Zi and his group capture Long Yichao and others, Gu Ning also walked back.
It’s not because she won’t come out here. Of course, it’s not suitable for her to come out here, but that’s one aspect. The most important thing is that when she came here, she saw many sunken ships at the bottom of the river, and they were old merchant ships.
Of course, Gu Ning was not interested in the ancient merchant ship, but she felt the spiritual energy coming from it and became interested in those spiritual treasures.
The treasure sunk to the bottom of the river belonged to no one, so she didn't want to waste it.
This time, we did find a lot of treasures, from many different eras. Of course, we also encountered some minor troubles.
Because these treasures are full of spiritual energy, they attract many creatures in the river. Over time, these creatures become spiritual and regard these treasures as their own. So when they see Gu Ning trying to take the treasures, they attack him.
Although these creatures could not attack Gu Ning, there were too many of them, so it took Gu Ning several minutes to deal with them.
Moreover, it is not only these creatures that are aggressive, but also plants.
The boxes containing treasures were also entangled by clusters of vines, which were slightly more difficult to deal with than those creatures.
Gu Ning took out a dagger and cut the vines, but what surprised Gu Ning was that after cutting them, they returned to their original shape after three seconds. It was impossible to cut them completely. The clusters of vines still surrounded the boxes.
What kind of plant is this vine?
Gu Ning didn’t know what kind of plant this vine was, but it was definitely because these vines were contaminated by spiritual energy and thus became spirits.
Since he couldn't cut it with the dagger, Gu Ning simply stopped using the dagger and attacked directly with his spiritual power.
Sure enough, as soon as the spiritual power came out, the vines were shaken apart and flew in the water. But in just a few seconds, the vines returned to their original appearance.
Gu Ning narrowed her eyes slightly, and suddenly had the idea of taking the vine back to study. Perhaps it would be of great use to her in the future.
Now that the idea came to his mind, Gu Ning didn't think about it anymore and took action directly.
To take this vine away, of course we have to pull it up by the roots.
So, Gu Ning first took a look at the roots of the vine through X-ray vision.
The roots of the vines are also complicated, and it is not easy to pull them out.
However, no matter how difficult it is, Gu Ning needs to give it a try. Gu Ning is not the kind of person who gives up before trying or quits halfway.
So, Gu Ning took out a shovel from the space. At this time, the vines shook a little, because they saw Gu Ning's intention.
When Gu Ning appeared here, the vine knew that the other party was no simple matter. Especially when it released its spiritual power just now, the vine also sensed the danger and became wary. Now, it was really afraid of being uprooted by Gu Ning!
Gu Ningke didn't know that the spirituality of the vine had reached the level of human brain consciousness, so he didn't know what it was thinking. But he didn't care about that. He took the shovel and started shoveling the soil around the vine.
Of course the vines couldn't just watch their roots being dug out by Gu Ning, so they immediately attacked Gu Ning.
Although the vines could not be cut, at least each cut would give her about three seconds of free time, during which she could also shovel away a shovel of soil.
Although the whole project is complicated and laborious, it is at least useful.
So, Gu Ning did just that. When the vine attacked, Gu Ning chopped it off. Then, while the vine was broken for a few seconds, Gu Ning shoveled away a shovel of dirt. He repeated this over and over again.
So, the soil was shoveled away little by little, and the roots of the vines began to be seen.
Because tree vines have many roots, when you shovel away the soil, it is inevitable that some roots will be shoveled away as well.
Finally, the vine couldn't stand it anymore and made a sound: "Stop, stop, stop..."
This is a childish voice, regardless of gender.
Gu Ning was startled when she heard this, and subconsciously stopped what she was doing. She knew that the sound came from the vines, so she was a little surprised.
But she was just surprised and not scared. She had seen many monsters and demons, so it was nothing special that the vines could become spirits and talk.
She was surprised only because the vine suddenly made a sound. She had not thought that the vine could become so spiritual.
After being surprised, Gu Ning looked at the vine with interest, and said with a smile: "You can let me stop, but move your vines out of the way. I want the things you wrapped."
"No, no, if you take these things away, what will I use to practice?" The vine said anxiously and pitifully. If it didn't need the spiritual energy from these things to practice, would it let her cut them down so randomly in order to protect them?
Although it can recover on its own, it still consumes your energy.
If you continue to cut it, it will die soon, especially if you damage its roots, then it will die even faster.
Although it has now become a spirit, it cannot yet transform into a human form. If it could transform into a human form, it could leave the soil.
If she took these treasures away, it would have no spiritual energy to absorb. Who knows when it can transform into a human form! If it can't transform into a human form, it can't leave the bottom of the river. If it can't leave the bottom of the river, it can't find spiritual energy, and then it can't practice.
Gu Ning heard this, his eyes flashed with cunning, and he lured, "This is easy, I have many spiritual things, as long as you follow me, you can continue to practice, and the spiritual energy where I am is much richer than this spiritual energy."
"Really?" Upon hearing this, the vine was immediately delighted.
