The years of reselling the haunted house

"Okay, okay..." Qian Qingfeng reacted very quickly this time, and quickly pulled out his torch, lit it on my torch, and the two torches burned, at least temporarily ensuring the safety of the two of us.

I looked around and found that there were a total of four old trees around, and most of the vines were stretched out from those four old trees.

Holding torches, Qian Qingfeng and I quickly approached those old trees.

When I got closer, I found that the roots of the old tree were entwined by those vines, making it airtight.

In order to find out where these vines grew from the old tree, I brought the torch closer, and the vines surrounding the old tree began to avoid it.

When those vines gradually spread out, I finally figured out that these vines did not grow on this old tree.

In other words, the vine and these old trees were not originally a species.

The old tree should be a kind of old locust tree. Due to the long-term entanglement of those vines, the tree has been strangled with countless scratch marks.

And the roots of those vines actually took root next to the old tree.

The roots of these vines are already very thick.After growing out of the ground, vertical branches branched out, and tree vines grew from those branches.

Those vines that attacked us turned out to be a strange plant that grew out of this underground.

I originally thought it was a man-eating tree, so it seems that I was completely wrong about those old trees.These vines have nothing to do with them. On the contrary, they have been entangled by these vines for so long.

I found the root of the vine, and without hesitation, I sent the torch directly to the root of the vine.

The torch sizzled and burned, roasting the roots of the tree until it was black.

And the top of these vines may have secreted a lot of oil. After the oil dries up, it adheres to the surface of the vines.

After being roasted by the fire, starting from the root of the tree, it burned quickly.

I saw a line of fire growing from the root, and quickly dispersed into several lines of fire as the branches dispersed.

It seems that we chose the right way to use fire attack to deal with these vines.

Presumably, the vines on these four old trees are all like this. They are all the roots of the vines that grew from the ground, and then gradually spread their branches and leaves, spreading all over every corner here.

And these vines are intertwined with each other. We ignited this one, and the fire line quickly spread to other vines.

The special oil on these vines allows them to burn more easily and quickly without involving other plants.

After the vines were burned, the restraint on Third Uncle and Sea Wolf was naturally loosened.

Soon, I saw the two of them fall from the sky.

Fortunately, the distance was not very high, and some trees and vines were involved, so they were not injured after falling.

But after the two of them fell down, they lay motionless on the ground.

Qian Qingfeng and I were so frightened that we hurried up.

Both of them were blue and purple, Qian Qingfeng waved his hand: "Hurry up and do artificial respiration."

"Ah? Artificial...breathing?" I was taken aback.

Qian Qingfeng nodded: "You save your third uncle, I will save the sea wolf, hurry up, or it will be too late. This is the symptom of their shortness of breath."

"Okay... well..."

I responded, and laid the third uncle's body flat, and was about to blow into his mouth, when I realized that Qian Qingfeng had already given sea wolf chest compressions.

I shook my head, it turned out that Qian Qingfeng was talking about this kind of artificial respiration.

I also imitated him and pressed the third uncle a few times according to the breathing frequency.

They were not seriously injured, and after being tossed by us a few times, they finally breathed out, and they were relieved.

At this time, those vines burned very quickly, and most of the vines had been burned.Only a few broken branches and leaves were left scattered on the ground.

And those tree vine roots have been burned black, it should be impossible to attack us anymore.

A sudden disaster was once again solved by us.

The third uncle clutched his chest, took a few breaths, and cursed, "I'm suffocating, I almost died in hell..."

The sea wolf finally recovered his breath, moved his limbs, and said, "What are these vines, why are they attacking people?"

Qian Qingfeng said: "I just remembered that when I checked the information, I found not only the golden thread toad, but also other strange creatures living in the Gobi area. It seems that in the Ming Dynasty, there was a kind of toad in the Gobi area. The plant is called wolf tooth vine. I think the introduction is a bit like the tree vines that attacked us today. If you look closely, these tree vines are not smooth, but have some jagged teeth, like spikes growing The same, so this plant is called wolf tooth vine."

"Oh..." After hearing Qian Qingfeng introduce the barbs on the vines, I felt pain in both hands. When I tore those vines, the barbs cut my palm into more than a dozen pieces of different sizes. The blood was still bleeding continuously.

Chapter 1420 Wolf Fang Vine

"Nephew, didn't we get a lot of herbs, let me cure you."

As he said that, Uncle San found a few of the herbs picked in the bag, grabbed a few leaves, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them, and then applied them to my palms.

Not to mention, this herb is really effective. After applying it, it cools and stops the bleeding, and the blood on the hands stops immediately.

I looked at the bodies of the few of us, because we were all entangled by that kind of tree vines, so the jagged barbs on them also scratched the clothes on our bodies with many holes.

These characteristics are in line with what Qian Qingfeng said about the wolf tooth vine.

Seeing that I had treated the wound, Qian Qingfeng went on to say: "It seems that this kind of wolf tooth vine cannot survive independently. There must be a tree next to it, and they can grow and survive if they are attached to the tree. In addition, the biggest feature of this kind of wolf tooth vine is that It can catch living creatures passing by nearby. Just like attacking us just now. In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court once sent people through the Gobi Gobi to trade with countries such as the Western Regions. Many people were attacked by this kind of spike vine, so the imperial court sent special personnel to manage it , A fire burned all the vines. By the way, the vines are afraid of fire, because they secrete a kind of oil, originally to protect themselves from the desert wind and sand. But this These fats are flammable, so just use fire to destroy them..."

When Qian Qingfeng said this, the three of us looked at him with unfriendly eyes.

Qian Qingfeng was on the rise when he was talking, seeing us looking at him like this, he finally realized it, stopped slowly, and finally kept silent, with a look of shame on his face.

Sea Wolf pointed at Qian Qingfeng: "I'm talking about old money, what do I say about you? It's really better not to let them go as an afterthought. They can attack people, but they are afraid of fire. You should have said it earlier."

The third uncle waved his hand: "Actually, I can't blame Lao Qian for this. The situation was so urgent at the time, and no one could react to such a sudden situation."

Qian Qingfeng nodded: "That's right. And according to records, this kind of spike vine was extinct as early as the Ming Dynasty's cleanup. There should be no such plants now. Who would have thought that we would still encounter them? This Devil's Forest is really well-deserved of its reputation. Not only did I see the golden thread toad here, but I also encountered this kind of creature that is said to be extinct. The ghost knows what will be encountered next."

The sea wolf waved his hand, looked at me and said, "Forget it, fortunately, there was no danger, thanks to Li Yang. It seems that you are also hiding your secrets, and you can escape when you are trapped by trees and vines. I admire the sea wolf." .”

Apparently, the sea wolf saw me breaking through the tree vines and getting out with the steamer arm.

Before I said anything, the third uncle waved his hand: "It's nothing. I taught the Taoism of my nephew, and we have many methods..."

Sea Wolf nodded: "Now I know, there is really no idiot who can enter this team."

My third uncle and I looked at each other, and only then did we realize that in the eyes of the sea wolf, we were once at the same level as the idiots.

Fortunately, in the past two days, we have also used our own actions to gradually change the views of sea wolves.I believe that these words of the sea wolf are also from the heart.

Today I activated the steamer arm, but it was said that it was a rescue from a desperate situation, which also made the sea wolf look at it with admiration.In addition, Chuanshan Jia showed off the unique skills of the slingshot yesterday. You must know that the slingshot is just an ordinary slingshot made by himself. There is no aiming equipment at all. There is also a fight to hit the mouse king.It was also the first time that Sea Wolf expressed admiration for Chuan Shanjia's skills.

Thinking of the Rat King, I checked left and right.

I don't know what's going on, but I still remember the way the mouse king looked at us when he was injured.We have dealt with many kinds of weird animals, and there are really not many examples of this kind of animals that have been hurt so badly by us, but there is no hatred in their eyes.

Although the facts are in front of us, it is the mouse king who has led us into this encirclement of vines.I still feel that the purpose of this mouse king is not just for revenge.

"That rat is over there."

At this moment, the sea wolf suddenly yelled, and at the same time drew out the pistol again, aiming in the direction of those old trees.

Sure enough, among those trees, the figure of the mouse king reappeared.

"Damn it, you still dare to come out." The sea wolf cursed and aimed his gun.

"Sea wolf, wait." I stopped the sea wolf again, and the sea wolf looked at me puzzled.

I pointed to the mouse king and said, "Let's take a look first. If you kill it now, you will get nothing but vent your hatred."

This time the sea wolf didn't say anything more, and put down the gun after listening to me.

And the marmot mouse king, when it appeared again, ignored us and ran towards one of the old trees.

It can be seen that after such a period of time, the gunshot wound on its body has healed a lot, and it has become much more flexible in its actions.

Apparently the herb it was looking for was very effective in treating this kind of trauma.And my hands are also recovering quickly after applying the herbs.

The mouse king ran under the tree, raised his head, and uttered a cry against the tree.

Like most mice, the mouse king's cry is also that kind of squeaking sound, but it is much louder than ordinary mice.

The mouse king yelled one after another, and the sound was very miserable.

The third uncle asked: "What does this guy call that tree?"

Sea Wolf raised his gun and said, "Guess what, don't you know if you look ahead?"

As he said that, the sea wolf strode towards the old tree, and stopped when he was two meters away from the tree.

And the marmot mouse king didn't escape because of this, and still yelled at the tree.

The sea wolf also looked strange, and wanted to go closer to see what happened.

At this time, the third uncle grabbed Hailang, who was puzzled.The third uncle made a silence gesture at Sea Wolf, motioning him to listen carefully.

The third uncle seemed to hear something, and we all held our breath and listened carefully.

Now we finally heard that, following the cry of the marmot mouse king, there seemed to be another voice responding to it.

It sounded like the call of a marmot mouse, but it was much lower and weaker than that of the marmot mouse king, but each sound was clearer.

I seem to understand the intention of the mouse king, there should be its kind in that tree, and its cry is calling for the same kind.

Sure enough, in the call of the marmot mouse king, another marmot mouse's head popped out from the middle of the old locust tree.

Seeing the marmot mouse show its face, the marmot mouse king became extremely excited, turned around several times in a row, and continued to bark at the marmot mouse on the tree.

Chapter 1421 Marmot Rat Offers Treasure

The marmot mouse on the tree, seeing the marmot mouse king, also barked twice, turned around again, and took out a small marmot mouse.It turned out that there was a big tree hole in the old tree, and the two marmots had been hiding in the tree hole all the time.

Obviously, the marmot mouse on the tree was a female, and the pups that came out should be her cubs.

The female marmot mouse jumped out of the tree hole and landed on the ground with the baby marmot mouse in her mouth. The king marmot mouse went up to meet her, and she and the female marmot mouse touched each other's ears and sniffed their cheeks, very affectionate.

After making out for a while, the mouse king suddenly turned around, nodded to us several times, then lay down on the ground and crawled until he was motionless in front of the sea wolf.

Seeing this scene, we understand everything.

The female marmot mouse should be a pair with the marmot mouse king, and the little marmot mouse is their cub.Of course, there must be more than one cub born to this kind of mouse.It should be because of some unexpected reason that only this one is left.We don't need to pursue this reason.

In fact, the wife and children of the mouse king were trapped in the tree hole.Why they are trapped, we also don't need to pursue this reason.

And the Rat King must want to save his wife and children, but because of the special environment here, this wolf tooth vine will attack the living things that pass by.The mouse king couldn't get close to the tree hole at all.

Therefore, the Rat King was wounded with a slingshot by Chuanshanjia before, and after discovering that we have special abilities, he wanted to use our hands to rescue his wife and children.

That's why it showed up and tried to lure us here.

During this period, it was shot again by a sea wolf and nearly died.But since it always wanted to use us, it didn't hate us.This is why we found that there is no hatred or hatred in its eyes.

Sure enough, everything was calculated by the Mouse King, and we were successfully brought here by it.

The Rat King should be very clear that we will also be attacked by wolf-tooth vines when we come here, and with our ability, we have a chance to get rid of those wolf-tooth vines.

But the Rat King must have overestimated us, and we almost died here, but the result was good. We successfully burned the wolf tooth vine, and the tree hole was exposed.Before that, the vines were completely wrapped around the tree, and the tree hole was sealed inside.The marmot mouse king probably never had a chance to meet that female marmot mouse.

After seeing that his wife and children were safe and sound, the marmot mouse king finally felt at ease, so he nodded to us to express his gratitude, and then he fell down on the ground and came to the sea wolf, willing to be punished for bringing us into danger a kind of atonement.

We were all a little shocked to see the mouse king make such a move.

It is not difficult to understand everything before and after this. I believe that the four people present have already seen the intention of the Rat King.

It is no exaggeration to say that what it does may be more benevolent than many human beings in the world.The first is the kind of family affection it has for its wife and children. At all costs, even if it exposes itself to gunpoint, it will bring us here.This kind of family affection and selfless love is beyond the reach of many people in the world.

In addition, it led us into danger in order to save his wife and children, and almost died because of it.I believe that the mouse king must be very clear, it should not be just a beast, and the spirituality in it will not be small.In this regard, the mouse king should owe us something.

And we saved its wife and children, but hurt it twice. It doesn't hate us too much, only thanks and apology.So after we successfully rescued its wife and children, it would rather send itself to the sea wolf to apologize by dying.This sense of responsibility and loyalty is beyond the reach of many people in the world.

Therefore, we looked at the mouse king and felt a little silly.The female marmot mouse and her cub have been squatting in front of the old tree, looking at us timidly.

I even saw the body of the female marmot shivering.I believe they must also understand everything in front of them, and are also worried about the safety of the mouse king.

Being animals has achieved this level, I think their thinking has gone beyond the scope of ordinary animals.

The sea wolf had been aiming at the mouse king with his gun up, but he couldn't do anything like this.I believe that every hard-hearted person will be infected by the love and loyalty shown by the mouse king after seeing this scene.

At this time, there is no need for us to persuade the sea wolf. The sea wolf shook his head, put away the pistol, and said to the mouse king: "Today you really opened my eyes. You used us, and we almost died. But I also shot you, and I was able to save your wife and children, so we are even. You take your wife and children and go...I didn't want to be your enemy...If it wasn't for the suspicion of the girl's disappearance It has something to do with you, why did we follow you here..."

The sea wolf talked a lot, but he didn't know if the mouse king could understand.But when it found that the sea wolf put away the gun, it should have understood it. It got up from the ground and nodded to us again to thank us.

Sea Wolf waved his hand: "Forget it, you guys hurry up, we are going to find someone..."

When the marmot mouse king came to us and did all this, the other two marmot mice, one big and one small, never moved.

Until seeing us waving them away, the female marmot suddenly uttered twice, and rushed into the tree hole again with a swish.
