I never thought that this ancient locust tree, which looks like charcoal, would be a predator.

This is simply incredible.

For a moment, I even forgot my purpose, just staring blankly at Gu Huai who looked like a tentacle monster.It is hard to imagine that such a strange creature would be born in this lifeless thousand-year-old city buried under the yellow sand.

This is far beyond our understanding.

But I have never heard of any plant that can take the initiative to attack and hunt a living thing as big as an adult!

Just when I was in a daze, the low growl of the fire monkey came from my ear,

"Hurry up and save people, what time is this, you are still in a daze!"

Hearing this, I suddenly came back to my senses, and then looked at the fire monkey, only to see that he was anxious, with a gun in one hand and my collar in the other.

Of course, I didn't make useless explanations, but silently pointed to the ancient locust tree not far away that was about to swallow Yang Hui.

Guhuai pulled Yang Hui to the side of the tree trunk, and the wrinkled trunk suddenly split open, and in a blink of an eye, a gap big enough to allow one person to enter and exit was revealed in front of us.

You can even see the scarlet inner walls filled with translucent liquid!

"What the hell is this fucking thing!"

The fire monkey who saw this scene was also stunned. He slowly let go of my collar, looked down at the gun in his hand, and laughed a few times as if mocking himself.

"Damn, I'm hallucinating."

"Be careful, get out of the way!"

Inadvertently, I suddenly saw a few poisonous snake-like things attacking us at the corner of the wall on my left.

This is the branch of the ancient locust tree hunting its prey!
Oops!

The moment I realized it, I was startled into a cold sweat, and I had no time to explain!

I grabbed the arm of the fire monkey and dragged him to the ground. After rolling a few times in a terrible embarrassment, I managed to avoid the branches of the ancient locust tree that were attacking us.

Those black, ancient locust branches lurking in the dark like poisonous snakes then retracted.

I lay straight on the ground, gasping for breath and rejoicing, subconsciously glanced sideways at the ancient locust tree in the distance,

At this time, I saw that there seemed to be another person in that big mouth.

This person looks familiar, seems to be the missing Wang Gang?

He was tied up in the stomach of a locust tree, and his vital signs were very weak, but he was still alive.

It's Wang Gang!
No wonder we searched hard for so long and couldn't find him. It turned out that he had been eaten by this ancient locust tree!

Wang Gang's clothes had been corroded by the slippery digestive juice, and his exposed skin was festered to varying degrees, and a branch of an ancient tree was also implicated behind him.

The blood-red branches squirmed continuously, as if absorbing nutrients from Wang Gang's body.

As for Yang Hui, who was caught by Gu Huai just now, more than half of his body has already been stuffed into the trunk by the locust tree!
If you don't save me, it will be too late!

"Made, no matter what the hell you are! I'm going to kill you!"

Seeing this scene, the fire monkey was so angry that he scolded his mother, he immediately raised his gun, aimed at the trunk of the ancient locust tree, and was about to pull the trigger.

At the very moment, I stopped him, shook my head and said with a wry smile, "Don't shoot! The penetrating power of bullets is too strong. You don't want them to die under your own bullets, do you?"

The fire monkey was so angry that he threw the gun on the ground.

"Then what to do! Is it possible to see them being eaten alive?"

"Use a knife!"

Although we lost a lot of things in the sandstorm, we still have knives.

Without any hesitation, the fire monkey and I found two Swiss Army knives in our backpacks. After looking at each other, we rushed towards the ancient locust tree.

When we came to the side of the ancient pagoda tree, Yang Hui had already been swallowed up, and no trace could be seen from the rough appearance of the pagoda tree.

I thought that a sharp saber could cut off those branches easily, but when I put it into practice, I realized that it was far from as simple as I thought.

The extremely sharp blade fell heavily on these branches, but it only split a little insignificant small wound.

Can't do any real harm at all!

As if we were tickling it, we chopped it down with more than a dozen knives, without even a little reaction.

Gu Huai didn't even attack the two of us, it seems that after eating two of us, it was already close to being saturated.

He tried his best, but to no avail.

"If this goes on like this, it won't work for them to be digested before they are rescued. We can just give up the two of them."

The fire monkey asked me with a wry smile while panting heavily, "Is there any other way?"

"Have!"

"any solution?"

I pondered for a while, and looked at the several backpacks thrown on the ground not far away.

"Use fire!"

If I remember correctly, there were at least two cans of gasoline in the backpack!

No matter how powerful this ancient locust tree is, it is at best a piece of wood, which cannot change its nature as a flammable object.

With the blessing of gasoline, it can definitely burn it up!
"Okay, trust me!"

The fire monkey hesitated for a while, then nodded emphatically to me.

This may be the most effective way we can think of so far.

Although the risk of doing so is still very high, it is very likely to hurt Wang Gang and Yang Hui who are in the trunk, but it is much safer than holding a gun to Gu Huai.

Fire Monkey and I quickly found gasoline in the backpack, pried off the lid and poured it on Guhuai.

Gasoline flowed down the bark of the ancient locust tree to our feet, and the air was filled with the smell of gasoline. The fire monkey and I stepped back three steps at the same time, and lit the fire.

The flames spread to the whole body of the ancient tree at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the air waves were scorching hot.

The sound of 'Zi Zi' echoed in the silent ancient city.

Flame-covered ancient locust trees lit the sandy rock above us, and billows of black smoke billowed upward.

What amazes me even more is that as time goes by, this burned old tree actually exudes a fascinating aroma of barbecue.

If I didn't know that this thing eats people, I would definitely want to rush up and take a bite!
"His grandma, burn this damn thing up!"

Fire Monkey said happily.

The crown of the ancient locust tree moves without wind, and the bright flames are several meters high, and hundreds of branches are swaying like poisonous snakes.

But in less than 2 minutes, its branches hung down limply, and even the straight trunk part bent down.

At the center of the trunk, the stomach of the ancient locust tree is revealed again.

I can already see the figures of Wang Gang and Yang Hui,

"Great! This method really worked!"

The fire monkey also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

The scarlet stomach wall also turned dark red, looking lifeless, and even the branches tied to Wang Gang and Yang Hui began to loosen.

The chance to save lives has come!
