Chapter 166 Lingtian Human Head Fruit
Li Siping was originally very worried, but he did not expect that his group would discuss how to escape in front of this sect elder.
He was even saying bad things about her...
But Elder Qing did not get angry because of this, and it was even as if nothing happened just now.
With a smile, he explained the tasks in Lingzhi Garden to everyone.
Each person is assigned eighty-one seeds, and after entering, plant a seed every three steps.
Those who finish planting can leave the Spiritual Planting Garden through the exit and complete today’s task.
And this seed is a fairy seed, which can enter the soil immediately. They don't need to dig the soil and bury a hole. They only need to scatter a seed on the ground.
After finishing speaking, Elder Qing looked up at the sky, then smiled and said:
"It will be dark in almost an hour."
"If you don't finish planting before dark and can't leave the spiritual plant garden, you have to ask for blessings."
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this, and they hurriedly stepped forward to take the medicine from the four senior sisters. Receive seeds online.
Li Siping also received the seeds and was about to leave when Elder Qing slowly called to Li Siping.
After a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he suddenly said to Li Siping:
"Hold your breath, close your eyes, seal your mouth, don't listen, don't touch."
Li Siping didn't understand what he meant, but Elder Qing suddenly slapped him on the face.
The momentum was obviously so strong that Li Siping was also startled, thinking that he would at least have a bruised nose, a swollen face, and a bloody head.
But who would have thought that after that menacing slap, there was no feeling at all on his face.
Elder Qing's soft and boneless palm seemed to be just touching his face gently...
Li Siping didn't know why, and watched Elder Qing take back his hand and leave.
He still shook his head, temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart, and followed everyone into the spiritual field in the garden.
The four senior sisters stood at the edge of the field, indicating that everyone could enter the spiritual field to work.
But everyone was hesitant and did not dare to enter easily.
Because this mountain is protected by formations, there is no gray fog.
But the spiritual field is completely different, bounded by the fence beside the field.
Beyond the fence is peace and beauty.
But inside the fence is filled with terrifying black fog that is thicker than the gray fog.
You can still vaguely hear howls and vicious roars inside.
"What kind of spiritual field is this? It is clearly a place of execution for murderers."
No one dared to go in, so they were hanging around outside.
But the four senior sisters who were supposed to supervise everyone had smiles on their faces and had no intention of driving them in.
Li Siping understood that when the time came, their lives would probably be in danger.
Of course the four of them didn’t have to waste their efforts urging them.
However, there are still some smart people who actually ran up to the four senior sisters and kowtowed respectfully.
Then, relying on his good looks, he smiled and said to a few people:
"Sisters, I wonder what the secrets of this spiritual field are. We are new here and don't know the magic of the immortal family, so we really don't dare to trespass."
The four people looked at each other and seemed not to be interested in this person. What do you think of the glib talk? He responded with a smile:
"Most of you are coming from the alchemy room. Please note that although the alchemy room looks scary, it is actually just for the entry-level disciples to adapt to the environment."
“As long as you can control the heat and not be fooled by the flames, you can survive without any pressure.”
“But the Spiritual Planting Garden is completely different. It’s dangerous, if you’re not careful, you’ll end up dead, so you have to stay focused.”
Having said this, the senior sister with the bamboo growing out of her head remained silent, while the other senior sister followed her words and said:
"The black mist inside is actually the remains of countless practitioners who were buried here. The resentment of people persists all year round, accumulating more and more... And the immortal seed in your hands is called the human head fruit."
"Once planted, it can be transformed into the bodies of these people who died in vain. "After the seeds are planted, if they sense your presence, they will quickly burst out of the ground and eat the strangers closest to them."
Said. Here, the four of them became completely silent, without any further hints.
Some of the people were thoughtful, while others were confused, not knowing what to do.
Li Siping seemed to have some guesses based on what these people said, plus the previous reminder from Elder Qing.
Seeing that no one was willing to be the first, and it was indeed getting later and later.
If it is true, as Elder Qing said, that you have to seek blessings once night falls, the danger may be doubled after nightfall.
After much thought, Li Siping took the first step decisively.
First, he pulled out some cotton from his clothes and stuffed it into his ears.
Then he closed his eyes and carefully stepped into the black fog that made him unable to see his fingers. Li Siping followed Elder Qing's instructions and held his breath.
Without opening his eyes the whole time, he threw a seed to the ground, then hurriedly took three steps forward before he dared to take a careful breath.
Then continue to drop the seeds, hold your breath and eyes, take three steps forward, and drop the seeds.
In this way, in just a moment, Li Siping had already dropped more than 20 seeds, without any surprises during the whole process.
In fact, even if there was any accident, Li Siping would not be able to sense it.
Fortunately, the parts that each disciple needs to plant are separated by fences, which can prevent Li Siping from accidentally walking in the wrong direction and planting on other disciples' fields.
Seeing Li Siping entering it, there were no screams or wails, and the other disciples also entered the spiritual field cautiously.
After a while, some people started screaming.
Some people completely ignored all taboos and stayed where they were after dropping the seeds, daring not to move forward.
The next moment, the thrown seed turned into a fruit shaped like a head and burst out of the ground.
Biting his ear off in one bite, he howled miserably and tried to struggle, but was eaten by several heads following closely, and was eventually eaten alive.
Some people violated the taboos in the Spiritual Plant Garden because they accidentally made a sound or saw something they shouldn't have seen.
Either died from the mouths of those human heads, or were buried in the soil and turned into fertilizer in the garden.
Otherwise, the limbs will gradually become stiff and stiff, and the feet will be pierced by unknown roots, completely turning into a plant in the garden.
Hearing the screams coming from inside, several disciples outside who had no courage to enter were even more sweaty. They hid outside fearfully and lost the courage to enter.
Elder Qing walked in expressionlessly, and his expression changed slightly when he saw the embarrassing looks of several people.
“Hmph, you’ve heard what you need to hear, you’ve seen what you need to see, why don’t you go in?”
A few vines came out of nowhere and tied up several people. The legs threw them directly into the fence.
At this time, Li Siping had planted most of the seeds. Although he was uneasy, he still forced himself to drop the seeds one by one.
But at the most critical moment, Li Siping suddenly felt the ground shaking violently.
For a moment, the earth shook, making people dizzy.
Li Siping was keenly aware that this change was definitely not a change in the Lingzhi Garden itself, but something seemed to have changed in the outside world.
In addition, Li Siping also noticed that there seemed to be some changes in the garden.
"No, the restrictions in the garden seem to have disappeared!?"
Sure enough, even though Li Siping strictly followed the rules of the garden, he could still clearly sense the riot of seeds in his hands.
Even if the seeds did not penetrate into the soil, they slowly grew and grew in Li Siping's hands, and the strange lines on them gradually became clearer.
"Run! Someone is attacking the mountain outside!"
That was the voice of one of the senior sisters from Lingzhiyuan.
Just hearing her frightened shouts, the other people were also extremely panicked and tried to escape from the Lingzhi Garden.
Li Siping, on the other hand, also ignored the unfinished planting of seeds in his hand and was about to escape from the garden.
But suddenly he noticed that the seeds in his hand began to slowly squirm, as if they were a group of newly awakened insects.
Frightened, Li Siping subconsciously opened his eyes and threw out all the seeds in his hand.
Sure enough, the moment those seeds landed on the ground, they slowly unfolded, revealing their true appearance.
A pair of malicious eyes, a hungry mouth, a nose like an aquiline...
Those were countless faces that looked like hungry ghosts, rushing towards Li Siping.
They seem not to be restricted by the previous rules, and crazily eat all the creatures around them.
Fortunately, Li Siping reacted in time and threw them out.
Otherwise, if those things were transformed in his own hands, Li Siping really couldn't imagine what he would look like by then.
Li Siping hurriedly ran out of the fence. Just one step away from the black mist, he suddenly felt a shock all over his body.
The next moment, his body seemed to be bound by some invisible force, and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape.
At the same time, a terrifying human head fruit with exactly the same face as his emerged from the soil in front of him.
The closer the head is to Li Siping, the more it looks like Li Siping.
The next moment, the head suddenly opened its bloody mouth and bit Li Siping's thigh.
Li Siping was in pain and could no longer control his balance and fell directly to the ground.
But Li Siping suddenly felt a strange feeling...
It was as if the pain in his leg was no longer clear and the fear in his heart had completely dissipated.
