Chapter 176 Don’t be a coward, dog
The laughter was so faint that it was barely audible because of the argument between Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren. It seemed that only the two of them heard it. But Bai Chenxue, whose nerves were tense, also vaguely sensed something. Even Jin Cai, who had been looking around waiting for everyone, suddenly climbed up Bai Chenxue's dress and finally shrank into her arms, shaking non-stop.
"What's wrong, Jincai? Don't be afraid! It's okay! Otherwise, why don't you go into Hutian?"
While comforting Jincai, Bai Chenxue frowned and looked around, but found nothing.
Shen Yun asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"
Bai Chenxue caressed Jin Cai, who was wiggling in her arms but didn't seem to want to return to Hu Tian Space. She said in an uncertain tone, "I seemed to hear some laughter, and Jin Cai's reaction wasn't right either!"
At the same time, Lin Muning and Zhongzhou Koi were trying to mediate the fight.
"Um, you two..."
"Brothers! Stop it!"
However, Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren, who had been bickering on a daily basis, ignored him and instead argued more and more vigorously.
"The dog is barking again!"
"Don't be scared, dog!"
"The dog is barking again!"
"Don't be scared, dog!"
“Hey hey hey hey hey…”
Another strange laugh was heard, this time it was clearly audible, everyone except Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren heard it! And it would never be mistaken for the sound of the wind! They looked at each other, and after confirming that the sound was not made by their teammates, their faces changed instantly, and Bian Yuanzhi was so scared that he hugged Zhen Junzi's arm.
But Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren seemed to have not noticed anything wrong, and they continued to fight fiercely.
"The dog is barking again!"
"Don't be scared, dog!"
Bai Chenxue took a deep breath, punched each of the two men in the waist, and yelled, "Will you two wake up!"
“Ah——”
“Hiss—it hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Traitor!”
As the saying goes, violence works wonders. After two screams, Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren finally stopped arguing.
Bai Chenxue then asked, "You two are really geniuses! You can even make a scene here! Don't you hear anything laughing at you?"
The two of them looked at Bai Chenxue blankly, as if they were a little overwhelmed. Then, a not-too-loud, but sharp and piercing laugh came from their ears. It was exactly the same as the noise that Zhen Junzi had mistakenly thought was made by Jia Xiaoren just now! "Oh hahahaha! Hehehehehe!"
“Fuck!”
“Oh my god!”
Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren were like waking up from a dream, and finally realized what was happening and felt scared. They screamed in fear, tears almost bursting out of their eyes. Then they hugged each other and took Bian Yuanzhi in their arms, squeezing Bian Yuanzhi so hard that he couldn't breathe, which in turn made his fear lessen a lot.
Although Bai Chenxue was a little scared, she was able to stay calm because there were so many players around her and they were in the game. She compared herself to Lin Muning who was just nervously holding her hand. She rolled her eyes at Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren and said contemptuously, "Look at you two!" Shen Yun was brave. He stood in front of Bai Chenxue and Lin Muning and shouted, "Bullshit! Who are you pretending to be? Get out now!"
“Hehehehe…”
“Hahahaha…”
“Eh hehehehehe…”
The laughter rang out again one after another, sometimes far away, sometimes near, sometimes in the front, and sometimes seemed to run to the back, making everyone a little annoyed.
Zhongzhou Koi Momo and Shen Yun were flanking all the teammates, including Zhen Junzi and Jia Xiaoren, one in front and one behind. The former also took out a two-handed sword flashing with lightning from his backpack, ready to go.
Seeing this, Shen Yun also took out a cold and sharp broad-bladed Tang sword from his backpack and asked, "What do you guys say?"
"Who are you calling brother?"
Lin Mu Ning snorted, and as he spoke, he took out a huge...potted plant from his backpack.
"?"
Except for Zhongzhou Koi, everyone else stared at Lin Mu Ning in amazement. Jia Xiaoren even asked exaggeratedly, "No, sister? Even if you take out a branch as a weapon, I think it's better than holding out a potted plant! Are you planning to use it as a hidden weapon? Just swing the flowerpot and hit it?"
"Hey! You don't understand this!"
Lin Muning proudly lifted the sapling in the flowerpot up, then dug a small hole on the spot and pressed the tree into it. Then, he held the sapling with both hands, closed his eyes and began to cast a spell, while subconsciously admonishing Zhongzhou Koi: "Protect me!"
The roots of the sapling began to extend rapidly underground, but it was a bit difficult - for some reason, this place did not seem to allow plants to survive, so the sapling could only rely on Lin Muning's own wood-attribute spiritual power to "grow."
This skill, [Stay Stick], is very strange.
If you just listen to the name and its corresponding concept, you might think it is a weird and useless skill of "sending the beating you get to someone else".
But in fact, it can exchange perceptions with any "living" or "perceptive thing". At first, Lin Muning just tried it with players and NPCs, then tried wild cats on the roadside, ducks in the pond, and later, flowers, plants and trees - I didn't expect it to work! Because she herself has wood spirit roots, she can even promote the growth of plants by infusing them with spiritual power, and then "exchange" perceptions with plants.
This was the scene that Bai Chenxue and the others saw when they first met her - she was sensing the location of the underground water source through the saplings, and loosening the soil by promoting the growth of plant roots, so that the Zhongzhou Koi responsible for digging the pit could dig more easily.
Of course, the purpose of her taking out this sapling now is also an experiment.
Because according to the results of her many attempts, things that the human eye cannot see can often be sensed through plants and animals! Especially the existence of demons and ghosts! As Lin Mu Ning injected spiritual power into the sapling, the slender sapling grew almost against the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it grew to a height of one person!
But that's all she can do. Lin Mu Ning's cultivation is really limited. She can only achieve this level thanks to the fact that she does it often and has become proficient at it. Otherwise, she could probably only control the saplings to grow roots.
Except for Zhongzhou Koi, everyone else was seeing this novel method for the first time. They all held their breath and waited quietly for the result.
After one or two minutes, beads of sweat began to appear on Lin Muning's face. After three or five minutes, the sweat wet her hair and made it into wisps, sticking to her forehead and temples.
About two minutes later, Lin Mu Ning's spiritual power was finally exhausted and she fell to the ground. The sapling in front of her quickly lost its vitality, withered and died.
Lin Mu Ning herself was terrified. Her lips trembled and she almost lost her voice as she shouted, "All of them are ghosts! Run!"
