Chapter 396: The Final Puzzle



The current situation is very complex, just like a chess game at a critical juncture, with both sides checking their own troops. Any mistake at this moment would be fatal. Mei Sanniang is in a relatively dangerous position because I have the Golden Que Sword to confront her, and Hu Lingshang should be more than enough to deal with those ratmen, and there are ants as reinforcements. I'm afraid she will be in trouble in this cave.

But now Yunwen's sudden appearance immediately reversed the trend, because Mei Sanniang was just lacking a shield, and Yunwen Yunwen might become that shield.

I don't know why Yunwen suddenly appeared, but I saw that Yunwen's eyes were full of surprise, which showed that she did not seem to have estimated the situation outside. Therefore, she looked unaware. She opened her mouth and said something to the flying ant, but the flying ant did not move. On the contrary, it kept flying towards Mei Sanniang. I saw that Mei Sanniang was not surprised, and I probably guessed something.

I rushed over, intending to save Yunwen, but was blocked by five ratmen and could not get through at all. Lingshang transformed into a two-meter-tall white fox, rushed forward and started fighting with the rats, covering me as I went towards Yunwen. I picked up a stone and planned to use the same trick again, but at this time, the corpses of the dead ants suddenly resurrected, their limbs and remains began to move, and began to surround me, preventing my next move.

It seems that my guess was correct, the flying ant also had the same problem!

"Zhenming Umbrella! Yunwen, the flying ants under your body are ants resurrected by the residual spirit in the Zhenming Umbrella, so they will only listen to Mei Sanniang's words. Jump away quickly!" I shouted.

Yunwen obediently wanted to jump down, but the flying ants had already flown very close to Mei Sanniang, and many dead soldier ants had been resurrected and surrounded her. After Yunwen jumped down, she was immediately dragged over by them and brought to the vicinity of Mei Sanniang. Mei Sanniang immediately pinched Yunwen's neck with one hand and aimed her other hand at her atrium under the ribs, with a smile on her face.

"Let her go!" I shouted at Mei Sanniang.

"Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment, it will be over soon. Don't cry, don't be sad. From now on, I will be your wife instead of her. I can do whatever you like." Mei Sanniang laughed.

At this time, her fingernails had already embedded in Yunwen's flesh. I dared not make a sound, dared not speak, dared not even breathe. I could only stare at this scene in a daze. Seeing Yunwen still looking at me, it felt like a farewell.

Just when I thought Yunwen was really going to have her heart removed and say goodbye to me forever, I saw Yunwen suddenly smile, and her expression was quite similar to Mei Sanniang's. She immediately pressed Mei Sanniang's hand with one hand to stop her from continuing to take out her heart, and with the other hand, I used the grappling skills I often used, grabbed her thumb and bent it, thus removing Mei Sanniang's strength.

Mei Sanniang was stunned. Her actions were actually cracked. However, she seemed to understand the situation. She kept looking at Yunwen's heart and muttered, "Yangshenmu! It's Yangshenmu!"

"Mei Sanniang, have you forgotten how you were able to cultivate into a human body? Wasn't it relying on this wooden heart? Now the wooden heart is not with you, but with me. Do you think I will absorb it slower than you? You said I stole the heart, but do you know that the masters of later generations buried the Yangshen Wood forever under the mountains because they were afraid that someone would become the lord of the ghost den again? Such a secret place was found by Zhou Bo and placed on me. So, this heart was not stolen by me, but fate has come and it chose me. I am different from your stealing behavior." Yunwen said.

Just now, it seemed that Mei Sanniang was holding Yunwen hostage, but the situation changed drastically in an instant, and it became Yunwen who was holding Mei Sanniang hostage. This was a counter-attack, and the opponent might have been trapped in a dead end.

"You little bitch! The Yangshen Tree is mine, give it back to me." Mei Sanniang had a ferocious face and tried to break free from Yunwen, but Yunwen's grip was so firm that the girl couldn't move at all.

Yunwen slowly approached Mei Sanniang, and I relied on my extraordinary hearing to hear her voice saying, "Yangshenmu is not yours, and Zhou Bo can't be yours either. Do you think you can steal rice, steal hearts, and steal people? All of this belongs to me, Zhang Yunwen, and it has nothing to do with you from now on. Do you understand?"

Mei Sanniang widened her eyes!

Then I saw Yunwen wave her hand, and all the dead soldier ants walked away from me and began to pounce on the ratmen. If the soldier ants were alive, they might be blasted to death by the high-frequency vibration of the ghostly sound, but now the dead soldier ants, like zombies, would not be afraid of being blown up anywhere, just like zombies are afraid of bullets.

For a moment, the ratmen were surrounded by countless huge dead ants, and they let out shrill screams. When the ants were no longer afraid of harm or death and were crazy, these ratmen were nothing more than big food in their mouths. For a moment, they were covered in blood and their skins were eaten away. What they owed must be repaid after all.

This is the terrifying authorization ability of the Yangshen Wood, which is also called spiritual adjustment. Now that the Yangshen Wood is on Yunwen's body, it can be seen that the authorizer can only belong to Yunwen. Therefore, under Yunwen's authorization, the resurrected ants can only obey her.

"Ah!! Give my Yangshen tree back to me. That's my heart, my heart, you thief, give it back to me!!" Mei Sanniang fell into madness and shouted loudly.

At this moment, she suddenly opened her mouth and made a high-frequency, ghostly sound towards Yunwen. Yunwen smiled indifferently and opened her mouth as well. The two harsh sounds shattered many of the surrounding stones and sculptures outside the palace. However, the final result was that Mei Sanniang took a few steps back in a hurry, spitting out the dark green plasma from her mouth, and retreating tremblingly.

"Yangshenmu, Yangshenmu..." Mei Sanniang sat on the ground like a madman, crying and laughing.

"If it is yours, why would it leave you and why wouldn't it come back to you? Do you know that the elm tree is the most spiritual thing in the world? The tree is extremely spiritual, and its heart is naturally more spiritual as well. It will not follow a person who steals it, but will choose someone it is willing to follow. Don't you understand?" Yunwen said condescendingly while looking down at Mei Sanniang.

Only then did I realize that Yunwen might have figured out long ago that the flying ants under her body were dead ants, or she might have also figured out that Mei Sanniang intentionally used the dead ants to spread false information in order to lure Yunwen out. So Yunwen took advantage of the situation and performed a trick so that she could get close to Mei Sanniang. After all, the Yangshen Wood is a spiritual thing. It took root and sprouted in Yunwen's body, which also added some wisdom and resourcefulness to Yunwen.

In this sense, Yunwen, who was also influenced by the Yangshen Wood, should be as active in thinking as the Lord of the Ghost Den.

Mei Sanniang burst into laughter. After she finished laughing, she looked at me from time to time, then at Yunwen, and said, "Well, the Yangtze River has always been strong, and the title of the Lord of the Ghost Cave should also be changed. But little girl, I have owed my life to unfaithful people. You must be careful, especially those guys who claim to love you all their lives. In addition, I have noticed that some evil things have coveted you recently. I believe you also know what they are. They are a hundred times more evil than me. It is not as easy to deal with as a heartless person like me. Take care of yourself."

When Yunwen heard this, her confident look immediately became much more restrained, her eyes moved slightly, revealing a sense of uneasiness.

At this time, Hu Lingshang transformed into a human form and walked towards the ghost master, saying: "Mei Sanniang, I have no grudge against you, and I don't want to attack you. I just want to protect the bloodline of my clan and not offend you. However, you have no scruples and killed my fox clan. Blood is spilled here. You should return this life."

After saying that, Hu Lingshang took out the Yinxi pot from his sleeve, opened the lid, and waved his sleeve. Suddenly, dark flames appeared and burned with a bang. Mei Sanniang was in the dark green flames, her skin was burning and crackling, but she did not struggle. Instead, she looked at me with a normal expression, sighing, and said, "Mr. Zhou, it's a pity that our fate ends here. In addition, I will give you another riddle as a farewell. Guess, has the rat army conquered your town now?"

After saying that, she burst into laughter again, but not long after, the laughter stopped abruptly in the dark fire, and the stench of burning spread. After the fire, a lot of crystals were left behind.
