Chapter 25 Pear Blossom Lantern Festival (7)


Chapter 25 Pear Blossom Lantern Festival (7)

As soon as he got close to the tree trunk, Liu Sheng could more clearly feel the pain and despair of the people trapped in the tree. Under the layers, it was estimated that the first person to be sucked in It has sunk deep into the depths and turned into nutrients for pear trees.

The cold light of the lantern enveloped the roots of the pear tree, and the pear tree began to tremble slightly, and more and more flowers fell.

Holding a mahogany sword, she found the gap between people and gathered all her strength to slash at the "bark".

The mahogany sword is not as sharp as the iron sword, and the "bark" looks slippery and has a thick layer of mucus, which should be difficult to break open according to common sense.

But to Liu Sheng's expectation, the Taomu Sword actually made a hole in the "bark", and a stream of yellow-white liquid seeped out, revealing the twisted human body inside.

At this time, the pear tree began to shake violently, as if resisting Liu Sheng's actions.

A shrill scream that echoed through the sky came from deep in the tree trunk, the voice full of pain and anger.

Illusions poked out from all directions and tried to drag her back into the murderous lantern, but these phantoms flinched away as soon as they touched the lantern's fire.

But it did not dissipate, but crawled beside it, ready to move.

Upon seeing this, the small tentacles injected more strange energy into the lantern, the light circle spread, and the illusion screamed as if it had been burned, and retreated further.

Liu Sheng was not affected and concentrated on opening the hole with a mahogany sword.

The first person was pulled out of the tree trunk by her. His body was yellow and white with bright red mucus, and he fell to the ground covered with pear petals. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Pop!

A branch whipped her hard.

At this time, the effect of the talisman on her body had dissipated, leaving only the protective magic circle on her robe.

The light flashed and blocked the blow for her.

Can resist twice!

Liu Sheng continued to use the peach wood sword to expand the hole, trying to rescue more imprisoned people.

The lantern in the little tentacle's hand glowed brighter, causing the pear tree to vibrate more violently. The pear blossoms fell crazily, and the entire Zuibai Garden seemed to be shaking.

Li Shugui seemed to hesitate for a moment, but quickly.

Pop!

Another blow!

The protective shield is reduced by one more.

With Liu Sheng's efforts, one figure after another was pulled out of the reddish-brown "bark".

Some of these people are still breathing weakly, while others have no signs of life.

A powerful and cold breath surged out from the depths of the tree trunk and headed straight for Liu Sheng.

One last time left!

Liu Sheng was still persisting at this time. His arms, which lacked exercise, were a little sore due to excessive exertion. Blood blisters appeared on the palms of his hands from the mahogany sword hilt. Half of his body had already penetrated the "bark". His body was covered in sticky fluid.

But she can't control that much anymore.

She wants to fish out more people.

There are also those people she is familiar with whom she has not yet met.

Although she usually focuses on her own affairs, she is not as indifferent to those rare and subtle feelings as she appears.

Finally, there was a snap.

Li Shugui's charged blow hit the protective shield activated by Liu Sheng.

After this blow, the pear tree seemed to have weakened a lot, the pear blossoms on the crown of the tree almost fell off, and night fell over the garden again.

Although most of the attack force was blocked by the protective shield, the remaining force still caused Liu Sheng's chest to hurt and the smell of blood in her throat.

But the physical pain at this moment was completely covered up by the surprise at the next second.

It’s Wang Dongdong! She finally found it!

I saw Wang Dongdong lying quietly in the depths with his eyes closed, his body covered in blood, his chest rising and falling, obviously still alive!

Liu Sheng struggled to drag Wang Dongdong out of the tree trunk, took out a small Huan Dan and stuffed it into her mouth.

At this time, a chill hit Liu Sheng's heart.

Liu Sheng looked up and saw something seemed to be gestating deep in the opening she opened, and the condensed cold malice spread out.

Liu Sheng realized that the situation was not good, but her protective circle had been completely exhausted.

She only had time to use her remaining strength to drag Wang Dongdong aside, and not far.

Soon enough, a streak of blood shot out from the depths of the tree trunk, rushing toward his face. Sure enough, B-level monsters are not that easy to deal with. Even if the targeted magic weapon "Zhang Hengyuan's Personal Customized Lantern" weakens its power, none of its blows are enough for Liu Sheng, who has no cultivation. Tolerable.

Liu Sheng could only let the little tentacles hold the lantern high and shine brightly.

Let her cry, this is her only resort...

She is also about to cry but has no tears left.

Just when she thought she was about to die, a golden light suddenly struck behind her, covering her with a pale golden shield.

The blood light hit the shield, making a violent collision sound, and the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart.

Liu Sheng looked back.

It was Fu Ze who saved her!

"Are you okay?" Fu Ze's voice was hoarse and tired. His body was stained with blood. He was holding hands with his right hand and his left hand was hanging softly by his side, as if it was broken.

Unlike Liu Sheng, he has an artificial intelligence plug-in. He seems to have gone through a fierce battle to get here, so he came here much later than Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng felt that something was brewing deep in the trunk. The red color of the "bark" was getting darker and darker, as if blood was dripping out, and the people trapped inside seemed to be melting away at an accelerated rate.

"Hurry, protect these people! It's going to devour them to gain strength!" Liu Sheng shouted anxiously to Ze.

Fu Ze suddenly understood. He took out his mahogany sword and flew forward. He used his spiritual power and slashed at the opening opened by Liu Sheng. He made a huge gash in the crimson tree trunk. People fell out of that opening.

Then Fu Ze waved his hand, a spiritual light flashed, and an amulet enveloped the heads of everyone on the ground, including Liu Sheng.

Fu Ze has an eighth-level cultivation level in the first realm, and the amulets he uses are not of the same magnitude as those used by Liu Sheng.

His move was very timely, because the next moment the wind started to blow and the evil energy exploded.

Each petal on the ground has an evil eye, which is densely packed and creepy to look at.

Immediately, those petal eyes were blown by the wind and turned into sharp blades that attacked everyone present.

Fu Ze took another picture of the amulet for everyone. This kind of range multi-stage attack with one layer of protection is not enough.

But he had been running around and fighting all the way. He had consumed too much spiritual energy and absorbed all the spiritual beads. There was no extra spiritual energy left for him.

Liu Sheng hugged Wang Dongdong and saw Fu Ze smiling with relief at him.

As the captain of this patrol operation, although he can only do so much, at least he is worthy of his conscience...

Many years ago, after his wife When he and his daughter died in strange circumstances, he wanted to go with them, and now he can finally get what he wanted...

Fu Ze thought silently.

Layers of petal eyes surrounded him, scratching the flesh and blood on his body, as if his body was covered with tiny eyeballs.

Blood splashed everywhere, and the petals and eyeballs around him were dyed bloodthirsty red.

His vision gradually blurred...

"No——!!!"

Liu Sheng felt sad in his heart. He had never hated himself so much for why he couldn't practice.

She thought she had won by relying on "the world" to get here.

She thought it was great that she could figure out the origin of the pear tree.

She felt that she was just a small treasurer, working an honest job, receiving a fixed monthly salary, and waiting for retirement.

But she couldn’t protect Fu Ze, she couldn’t protect Wang Dongdong, she couldn’t protect the innocent people in Li County...

She couldn’t even protect her own life, it was Fu Ze who saved her Got her.

He also saved her a second time.

He is going to die!

Fu Ze will not be the male protagonist, to avoid misunderstanding.

Being unable to protect his teammates is also a blow to Liu Sheng, who has always been reluctant to play. The heroine is still relatively weak in the early stage, but she will continue to grow and become an absolute heroine.
