Chapter 162 Jishi Medical University: Three Times in One
Yu Naixin had already memorized every single official detail about her title.
[Title Attribute: Fire.]
[Title Buff: Greatly increases the recipient's physical and mental recovery abilities, and significantly enhances resistance to negative damage such as pain, curses, and poison.]
[Title Skill 1: "Most Popular Guest". The holder's attractiveness to guests in dungeons is greatly increased; dungeon guests will be more eager to have you than guests on other programs.]
[Title Skill Two: "Sweeping Reaper". The recipient will experience a significant increase in efficiency when tackling dungeon guests.]
During the last simulation, the Frankenstein professor and the banyan tree spirit youth avoided Yu Naixin like the plague, making Yu Naixin wonder if the two title skills given to her by "Heartbeat 1000%" were bugged and didn't work at all.
However, Yu Naixin soon figured it out herself; it wasn't a problem with the title or skill.
Both "Popular Guest" and "Sweeping Harvester" are skills that only generate benefits based on existing foundations; if there are no existing foundations, they cannot be effective.
To put it in a simpler and more straightforward way, these two title skills can increase "1" by a certain percentage, multiplying it by a certain percentage to become "1.2", "1.5" or even more, but they cannot make "0" more; no matter how much they multiply by the percentage, they can only get "0".
Based on the specifics of the last simulation, Yu Naixin even suspected that the Frankenstein's monster professor and the banyan tree spirit youth had a base favorability rating of less than "0" for her, which was purely negative. Multiplying it by a percentage would result in an even lower value.
Faced with the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, and the instinct for survival, all other attractions are meaningless.
Therefore, Yu Naixin chose a completely different route for this simulation compared to the last one.
Another experiment she wanted to conduct was, naturally, to find the most direct and effective way to win over the young man who was a banyan tree spirit.
Regarding how to effectively woo the Frankenstein's monster professor, Yu Naixin already has clues from the male guest's fragmented memories, but the last simulation failed to put them into practice, while the young man from the banyan tree spirit side still needs more information.
Thinking of this, Yu Naixin couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The Jade Bone Mahjong set was really too useful. These special magical artifacts that the dungeon guests willingly gave away were all incredibly powerful.
If the priest's folding fan could hear Yu Naixin's heartfelt words, it would surely be speechless with emotion.
The priest's folding fan clearly understands that while the Jade Bone Mahjong set is indeed powerful, the main reason it was able to play such an incredible role in these dungeon events is because the user is Yu Naixin.
Even if other program guests obtained this set of four Jade White Bone Mahjong tiles, they could at most control the dungeon guests for a few rounds. They could neither control them for as long as Yu Naixin, nor manipulate spiritual threads to unravel clues from the dungeon guests' minds like Yu Naixin.
Who has Yu Naixin's talent?
She walked off the bridge unharmed, and nothing had happened around her.
For the entire day, Yu Naixin followed Lin Yuting to class, to the cafeteria, and back to the dormitory, without doing anything else. Compared to a guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%", she seemed more like an honest and well-behaved student from Jishi Medical University.
[“Yao Ling” is so clingy to Lin Yuting; basically, whatever this NPC roommate does, she follows suit.]
She's always been very cautious, and her eagerness to imitate the NPCs' actions probably stems from a belief that it's safer and won't trigger any terrifying consequences. However, this approach is really unacceptable on "Heartbeat 1000%." The NPCs might be able to be guests on the show, but that's not necessarily true.
[I'm starting to believe she really hasn't participated in many dungeon shows. She seems quite ignorant of even these basic facts, so how did this female guest even get the title "Yao Ling"?!]
[It's been almost twenty-four hours since "Yao Ling" entered "Ji Shi Medical University," and she has maintained the same state from beginning to end. Her words, actions, expressions, eyes, and demeanor are all flawless, perfectly showcasing her anxiety, fear, and constant anxiety. If she really is playing dumb, her acting skills and self-control are terrifying!]
[Anyway, I've decided to stay in this livestream until the very end. Whether this "Yao Ling" is deliberately feigning weakness or genuinely weak and desperately trying to survive using a sacrifice strategy, I'm really looking forward to what happens next. It's something rarely seen in this "Saving Health Medical University" episode.]
**********
It was 6:30 p.m.
Yu Naixin had just had dinner with Lin Yuting in the cafeteria. Lin Yuting was about to invite Yu Naixin to go for a walk to digest their food, but Yu Naixin, who had been clinging to Lin Yuting like a shadow all day, refused Lin Yuting's suggestion for the first time.
"I..." Yu Naixin's fingers unconsciously gripped the hem of her shirt, fidgeting nervously. "I have something to do..."
Yu Naixin seemed to have made some very difficult decision. She raised her voice and blurted out the rest of her sentence in one breath: "...I'm not going!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuting glanced at Yu Naixin with some surprise, then immediately accepted Yu Naixin's suggestion, smiling and waving goodbye: "Then I'll be going now."
After speaking, Lin Yuting quickly disappeared from Yu Naixin's sight, trying her best not to disturb the program guest's actions.
Yu Naixin watched Lin Yuting leave, gently biting her lower lip, her eyes filled with reluctance and fear.
[My goodness, that look in her eyes… It's almost unfair that "Yao Ling" has that kind of look in her eyes. This is the ultimate example of being utterly pitiful! It makes me want to hug her, it's so heartbreaking!]
[There was a slight sense of relief. This female guest knew that simply running away wouldn't solve anything; she had to take action, no matter how difficult it was.]
[It's already the second night, and "Yaoling" is a bit slow to realize what's going on. There were clues on the bridge when school let out at noon, but she didn't notice them at all. The next useful clue won't appear until tomorrow night.]
Yes, her efforts tonight will be in vain; I have no idea what she's planning to do.
Yu Naixin was going to go check out the laboratory building.
From the cafeteria to the sports field and then to the administration building, Yu Naixin walked eastward, each step feeling as if her legs were filled with lead, making her walk incredibly heavy and slow.
At around 6 a.m., the sky above Jishi Medical University was still lit, but by 7 p.m., the sky was gradually darkening and the streetlights on both sides were starting to turn on.
As the number of NPCs around her dwindled and the lights became increasingly sparse, Yu Naixin finally arrived under the large banyan tree, by which time it was completely dark.
There were no streetlights near the laboratory building, and the building itself was pitch black due to the absence of its owner, the Frankenstein's monster professor. The only light that Yu Naixin could see was the blood-red glow emanating from the forest of aerial roots in front of her.
After a full simulation, Yu Naixin finally witnessed the strange phenomenon of the banyan tree from the terrifying rumors for the first time.
The endless darkness was like a bottomless sea, enveloping everything in an impenetrable silence. Only this blood-red forest emitted a faint light, both eerie and beautiful.
[Damn, this isn't the first time I've seen something like this, but why am I still a little shocked this time?]
[It's probably because of the sense of immersion. This "Yao Ling" character's state has always been very relatable to the audience. The sense of oppression and struggle, built up little by little from countless details, is something we've gotten used to after watching the live stream all day. Suddenly, the scene changes from the mundane, slow-paced campus life to a ghostly spectacle, which can easily startle the audience.]
What is "Yao Ling" doing here? Is she looking for the banyan tree spirit? Don't tell me she's eagerly offering herself as a sacrifice to the banyan tree spirit!
The viewers in the live stream were right.
Yu Naixin stood beside the outermost aerial roots, her hands clenched tightly, her face deathly pale. After a long moment of mental preparation, she finally managed to speak: "Mr. Banyan Tree... are you there?"
Yu Naixin's every syllable was trembling, and her throat felt like it was being choked, preventing her from making a normal sound. She could only speak through a strained voice.
It is a physiological manifestation of extreme tension.
A gentle breeze, seemingly from nowhere, occasionally blew by, chilling the cold sweat on Yu Naixin's forehead and causing the blood-red aerial roots to sway gently.
But there was still no response from the banyan tree spirit youth.
“Mr. Banyan Tree…” Yu Naixin’s voice grew increasingly hoarse, “I… I’m here to fulfill my promise!”
"I can offer you my spiritual power and flesh and blood; you can take as much as you want, as long as you don't harm my life!"
"As long as you agree to shelter me! This should be your territory, right? Can I stay here for the rest of the time? I'm afraid of being hunted down by another guest in the instance..."
"I still have some Sweet Coins, so I can guarantee I'll be self-sufficient and won't cause you any trouble!"
[...Ah, it seems "Yao Ling" is really determined to go down the sacrifice route.]
Does this silly child truly not realize that her actions are tantamount to washing herself clean and placing her on a plate, where the banyan tree spirit youth could easily use a knife and fork to kill her at any moment?
[If it weren't for her looks, I would have cursed her outright. Why would she be so subservient to the guest stars?! Any guest who makes a name for themselves on "Heartbeat 1000%" is incredibly proactive and takes the lead. "Jade Blade's" soft-on-hard approach is rare; all three legendary figures treat the guest stars like prey. Who else would willingly become prey like this?! What a waste of the title "Radiant Spirit"!]
There's no definitive information about the exact strategy for "Nightmare"... but "Divine Healer" and "God of War" certainly have a strategy that can turn the tide of battle with ease. Most of the top players who became leading figures on the show at the time followed this approach, making it arguably the best method for dealing with the guest characters in the dungeons, proven by countless predecessors.
[Sigh... never mind "Yao Ling," what about the banyan tree spirit? The lamb has practically delivered itself to our doorstep, and the wolf hasn't even made a move?]
Whenever the main guest and the guest from the instance interact during the main event, the perspective of the guest from the instance will be displayed in the live stream.
From last night until now, the live stream perspective of Rongshujing Youth has always been available for viewers to switch to at any time. However, most of the viewers in the live stream are long-time viewers who are regulars in the title section and have already watched more than one episode of "Jishi Medical University". They know that there is really nothing interesting to watch on Rongshujing Youth's side.
Inside the trunk of the banyan tree is a hidden space that cannot be seen from the outside. Once inside, you will find a treehouse with an area of about 30 square meters, furnished with various items needed for the life of the banyan tree spirit.
As a socially awkward homebody, the Banyan Tree Youth will stay in his room as much as possible. He doesn't have much to do, so he either sleeps or daydreams. His perspective is known for being uninteresting.
Previously, some viewers who were attracted to good looks were willing to specifically look at his face, but after seeing it a few times, they were no longer so enthusiastic. More importantly, the guests on this episode were so good-looking that those who wanted to see his face simply switched to Yu Naixin's perspective, and very few viewers remained in the perspective of the young man from the Banyan Tree Spirit.
It was only because the young banyan tree spirit hadn't reacted yet that some viewers changed their perspective to see what was going on.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the banyan tree spirit youth was lying upright on his wooden bed, with his eyes closed and his hands covering his abdomen, seemingly fast asleep.
[The banyan tree spirit's sleeping posture...it seems more fitting for it to be lying in a coffin.]
[What are you sleeping for? Get up and interact with the female guest! She's outside, heartbroken and ready to sacrifice herself, and you're still pretending to be asleep inside! I refuse to believe the banyan tree spirit didn't hear what the female guest was saying! If he didn't have this much awareness, he would have been killed by the Frankenstein monster long ago. 'Saving Health Medical University' wouldn't just be about to become a mutation fusion instance, it would be a mutation reduction instance!]
Amidst the eager anticipation of Yu Naixin and the viewers in the live stream, the banyan tree spirit youth finally opened his eyes.
However, because her bangs were too long, her eyes weren't very noticeable even when she opened them.
[Damn, the young man with the banyan tree spirit's expression looks like a tired office worker who was woken up early by his alarm clock, his face clearly showing his reluctance to go to the early shift, hahaha!]
[Wow, I'm speechless! This is hilarious! How can it be so vivid?!]
[In the episode I watched before, the guests were constantly battling it out under the clutches of the Frankenstein monsters, and I didn't see the banyan tree spirit much. Can someone explain to me why the banyan tree spirit was so unenthusiastic? Even if it's socially awkward, it wouldn't be worth mentioning in the face of such a huge temptation to devour the show's guests, right?]
The next second, the banyan tree spirit youth vanished from the treehouse and reappeared in front of Yu Naixin.
The blood-red aerial roots gently avoided the banyan tree spirit youth's body, and under the reflection of countless blood-red rays, a strange blood mist also covered the banyan tree spirit youth's cold face.
Yu Naixin was startled by his sudden appearance, took two steps back, and took a few quick breaths before she finally calmed down.
Trembling, she tried to look directly into the eyes of the banyan tree spirit youth, wanting to say something to him face to face, but due to the deepening fear, she completely lost the ability to utter syllables and could only open her mouth in vain.
The young banyan tree spirit had a strange feeling when he looked at Yu Naixin.
—It seemed that he only needed to breathe slightly heavier to make this extremely beautiful and delicate female guest shatter, melt, and eventually disappear like a snowflake.
This caused the young banyan tree spirit to involuntarily hold his breath.
...He didn't really want her to disappear.
Yu Naixin still compulsively forced herself to stare at the banyan tree spirit youth, not missing any subtle changes in him.
—Her first experiment yielded preliminary results.
Based on Yu Naixin's understanding of the banyan tree spirit youth, she would have to come over at least tomorrow night to perform a performance of actively pleading and offering sacrifices in order to gain even a little genuine trust and pity from the banyan tree spirit youth.
As a result, after she did this once, the young banyan spirit began to waver slightly, and the title skill "Purifying Harvester" definitely played a crucial role in this.
As expected, if the base favorability level isn't zero or negative, the effect is quite different.
Even so, the young banyan tree spirit did not take any further action.
His gaze swept over Yu Naixin's face, which was filled with fear and tension, and her hands clenched tightly at her sides. He moved his lips and said a few words in a low voice: "...Go back."
It was the exact same tone he used when he said "You can go" last night.
As soon as he finished speaking, the banyan tree spirit youth turned around and returned to his treehouse alone, just like he had said the night before.
[...? I'm starting to feel like I don't understand this episode of "Saving Health Medical University" anymore?! Something's not right, nothing's right at all! Even though the banyan tree spirit is socially awkward and a homebody, why is he still so indifferent to this female guest's behavior?!]
[That's right. If "Yao Ling" doesn't understand the young banyan tree spirit, how could we, the long-time viewers, not understand him? The reason that the young banyan tree spirit wanted to nurture "Yao Ling" further for better absorption no longer holds water! Anyone can see that "Yao Ling's" willingness has almost reached its peak. At this point, the young banyan tree spirit not only doesn't absorb her, but doesn't even take any "deposit" from her. Doesn't this only deepen "Yao Ling's" unease?!]
[I completely agree with the previous statement. The banyan tree spirit can't keep causing trouble just because the Frankenstein monster still has two more days before it can be active. If this continues, "Yao Ling" might suffer a mental breakdown. Whether she eventually stops wanting to sacrifice herself or does something unpredictable and crazy in her breakdown, it won't benefit the banyan tree spirit at all!]
[There have been precedents of show guests suffering mental breakdowns under pressure and choosing to commit suicide... In such cases, the alternate guest can only obtain the show guest's corpse at most, with very little spiritual energy remaining, all dissipating with the show guest's death. For the alternate guest, it's definitely a loss.]
The banyan tree spirit youth's figure vanished in an instant, and Yu Naixin couldn't even see him off properly; she could only catch a glimpse of that pale blue color flash by.
The crimson color on the aerial roots in front of her quickly faded, returning to its ordinary appearance from the daytime.
As Yu Naixin watched the air plants swaying gently and naturally in the night, her expression gradually became blank and helpless.
"Mr. Banyan Tree..." she murmured softly, unconsciously placing her right hand, which she had been tightly clenching, on her left chest, right where it was closest to her heart.
Words, lighter than the breeze that rustles Yu Naixin's hair, drifted in the air and vanished in an instant.
However, from the perspective of the young banyan tree spirit, even a small number of viewers can see that the protagonist in the live stream is standing by the window of the treehouse.
From inside the treehouse, you can see all the scenery outside.
Having escaped the face-to-face situation with Yu Naixin, the banyan tree spirit youth seemed much more at ease and relaxed. He looked at Yu Naixin through the window, and even though half of his eyes were covered by his bangs, you could still see the seriousness and focus in his eyes.
Yu Naixin's words, which were scattered in the air, reached his ears.
【…Hmm?! Wait a minute! I wouldn't have even considered this possibility if I hadn't adjusted the banyan tree spirit's perspective. Is it possible that the banyan tree spirit's heartstrings were truly touched by "Yao Ling"?!】
【Holy crap, now that you mention it, I'm starting to believe it! The Banyan Tree Youth is clearly treating "Yao Ling" differently than he has treated previous guests on the show! I saw discussions in the comments section recently questioning why the Banyan Tree Youth would do something that doesn't benefit him much. Everyone was trying to analyze it rationally, but what if rational analysis can't yield reliable results? What if it's something that can only be understood emotionally?!】
[My goodness, that makes sense! As long as we accept the premise that the Banyan Tree Spirit Youth has feelings for "Yao Ling," all of the Banyan Tree Spirit Youth's irrational actions towards "Yao Ling" have a perfectly reasonable explanation!]
When he saw Yu Naixin raise her hand to her left chest, the banyan tree spirit youth suddenly felt as if a feather-like thing had floated past him in the same spot.
It brushed lightly across my heart, bringing a faint, ticklish sensation.
Banyan Tree Spirit Youth: "..."
He remembered that around the same time yesterday, when Yu Naixin's fingertips brushed across his palm, it brought a very similar sensation.
The young man's eyes became unreadable for a moment, and he unconsciously looked away, no longer daring to look at Yu Naixin.
[What?! I was still a bit skeptical. These two guest contestants from "Jishi Medical University" are incredibly shrewd. They show no mercy to the contestants they can beat, but they know how to protect themselves from those they can't. They're the kind of guest contestants best suited for "Heartbeat 1000%." Getting them to fall for you seems impossible. But after seeing the banyan tree spirit like this, what can I say?!]
[That's right, although "Heartbeat 1000%" is just a dating reality show, there are countless instances of the guest contestants and the main cast being flirted with by each other. It doesn't necessarily increase their liking for each other much, but we viewers are all too familiar with these sudden expressions of attraction. The Banyan Tree Spirit was definitely touched by "Yao Ling"!]
[...But I still don't understand, what exactly did the banyan tree spirit see in "Yao Ling"? Does he just like weak and helpless female guests?! There weren't many female guests like that in this previous episode...]
No, no, no, don't just look at appearances! This "Yao Ling" may seem like a dodder vine, only crying and seeking protection, but in reality, from the very beginning, when she chose the Banyan Tree Spirit as her crush, she showed complete dependence and trust in him. Even though she was terrified, she still held his hand, mustered up the courage to offer herself, and even after spending a whole day in fear, she rushed over to express her loyalty as soon as the Banyan Tree Spirit appeared. If you put yourself in the Banyan Tree Spirit's shoes, how could you not be moved at all by such a delicate, harmless, and extremely beautiful girl treating you like this?
"Damn, you're absolutely right!"
[“Yao Ling” is still waiting under the banyan tree? My goodness, her expression is so devout, almost dreamy, as if she's hoping the banyan tree spirit will come out again… I can't believe it, this couple is so sweet and ambiguous!]
[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 15 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "Change Your Taste"!]
Yu Naixin did not "go back" as the banyan tree spirit youth had requested, but instead stood there and waited for several more hours.
He remained motionless throughout, like a lovestruck sculpture.
Yu Naixin was startled when she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around in a panic and met the gaze of her roommate, Li Yuanyuan.
A fleeting smile, unnoticed by anyone, flashed in Yu Naixin's eyes.
She almost thought her good roommate wasn't coming today, but thankfully she finally arrived.
The last actor has taken his place for tonight's performance.
Li Yuanyuan's expression was even colder than the one Yu Naixin had seen during the last simulation. Her eyes, sharp as knives, swept over Yu Naixin from head to toe, and her tone was extremely unfriendly: "...What are you doing here?!"
Yu Naixin looked completely confused, not understanding what Li Yuanyuan was talking about: "...Huh?"
This behavior provoked Li Yuanyuan, who stepped forward and approached Yu Naixin, her voice even more furious: "Who gave you permission to disturb Lord Sacred Tree alone at night?!"
Yu Naixin: "..."
No, even though I know it's a necessary procedure, it's still a bit too funny to hear an NPC say such lines so seriously.
[Oh, I almost forgot about this NPC. The male guest on the show chose the banyan tree spirit as his crush. As long as he doesn't die too early, he'll definitely encounter her. Like that Lin something, she's here to deliver information, but her methods are much more aggressive.]
[Oh my god, I'm a little worried that this NPC will make "Yao Ling" cry? "Yao Ling" was already on the verge of tears because she couldn't wait for the banyan tree spirit youth, and now this NPC is being mean to her...]
[Hahaha, it's so rare to see a conflict between a show's guests and an NPC (NPC). Let's see what happens!]
Amidst the worried gazes of many viewers, Yu Naixin paused for a moment in the face of Li Yuanyuan's aggressive approach, then blinked innocently: "...So Mr. Banyan Tree is the Holy Tree?"
Her tone was as if she had just realized something, and it carried a hint of happiness and excitement, as if she had finally learned more about the person she cared about.
“If you can’t come alone,” Yu Naixin smiled sweetly at Li Yuanyuan, “then I’ll come with you next time!”
Yu Naixin relaxed her tense demeanor and stepped forward, eliminating the last bit of distance between herself and Li Yuanyuan. She then took Li Yuanyuan's hands in hers and said affectionately, "We can come and pay our respects to the Sacred Tree together in the future!"
She looked directly into Li Yuanyuan's eyes with utmost sincerity: "Perfect timing. You should know a lot about the Holy Tree, right? Can you tell me about it?"
【…Huh?! No, how did the plot develop like this?!】
[...I had considered that "Yao Ling" would be brought to tears by the NPCs, and I had also considered that the NPCs would finish reciting their lines and then ignore "Yao Ling." I even thought that the banyan tree spirit youth might still be watching the situation outside the window and take the initiative to intervene in his followers to support "Yao Ling." But I never expected that "Yao Ling" would resolve the situation with just a few words!]
[...Why are you all using ellipses? But I also feel that no words can express my feelings right now... I can't help but wonder if this "Yao Ling" is pretending to be weak while actually being strong. Every single word she said hit that NPC, Li something-or-other, right in the heart!]
Indeed, Li Yuanyuan is portrayed as the most devout follower of the banyan tree spirit youth. Rumors about an unknown corpse buried under the banyan tree were rampant at Jishi Medical University, which had long been a source of discontent for Li Yuanyuan. Seeing newcomers visiting the banyan tree at night, she assumed they were also "blasphemers" seeking thrills and gossip, hence her anger. However, Yaoling's initiative to come along in the future was tantamount to acknowledging Li Yuanyuan as a "preacher," and Yaoling himself being a newly "preached" follower, addressing her as "Holy Tree Master" with remarkable naturalness and eagerness. He even claimed that Li Yuanyuan understood the banyan tree spirit youth and wanted to learn from her. Given Li Yuanyuan's logic, she was bound to tell Yaoling everything she knew!
Sure enough, after realizing what Yu Naixin had said, Li Yuanyuan instantly transformed, her cold and gloomy demeanor vanishing, replaced by a face full of joy.
As if she had finally found a kindred spirit in the vast sea of people, Li Yuanyuan enthusiastically gave Yu Naixin a detailed explanation of the science.
"Don't listen to those blasphemous scoundrels!" Li Yuanyuan had clearly been holding a grudge about this for a long time, and her first priority was to dispel the rumors for Yu Naixin. "The sacred tree has not been tainted by the blood of any corpse. The reason why the sacred roots sometimes turn red at night is entirely due to the manifestation of the sacred blood of the sacred tree!"
Li Yuanyuan's tone gradually became proud and reverent: "Hundreds of years before the establishment of this Jishi Medical University, the Sacred Tree took root here. In order to protect this land, the Sacred Tree spared no effort and painstaking efforts. Over time, the Sacred Tree's roots were stained with the color of Sacred Blood."
"The Holy Tree does not want its followers to know its hardships, so it only reveals the crimson color of its sacred roots on occasional nights. But how can we forget the Holy Tree's sacrifices?!"
Li Yuanyuan gripped Yu Naixin's hand tightly, her expression growing increasingly fervent: "Whenever the Holy Blood manifests, it is the best time for us believers to worship the Holy Tree!"
"Those sacred roots, imbued with holy blood, will merge with our bodies and deliver our faith to the Holy Tree!"
Yu Naixin subtly moved her hand to avoid being pinched too hard by the excited NPC.
She automatically translated Li Yuanyuan's words in her mind. In other words, the young believers of the banyan tree spirit, represented by Li Yuanyuan, would come to the bottom of the banyan tree when the aerial roots turned red, allowing the aerial roots to penetrate their bodies and absorb their flesh and blood to provide energy for the young banyan tree spirit.
