The end of the world starts with failing the exam

Chapter 143 The threat hidden in the wasteland

When Chen Jing and the others drove to the ravine under the hills, a burst of scarlet blood mist filled the air.

A smell that can be smelled in everyone's nose.

It smells like crushed grass mixed with blood.

"This is the Tusuo Tree..."

Chen Jing stood in the middle of the tree trunk and looked towards the crown of the tree, feeling indescribable shock.

A closer look.

The size of this tree is frightening.

Even when Chen Jing climbed up the tree trunk, he felt that what he was stepping on was not a tree, but a kind of gray-brown hard soil.

The uneven terrain is like hills, stretching straight for seven to eight hundred meters.

"The backstage of your tribe is quite strong."

Since arriving at the scene, Chen Boxu's brows have been furrowed, and anyone can see the solemn look on his face.

"Is this a polluted species?" Chen Jing asked.

"Yes, and this is not an ordinary polluting species..."

Chen Bofu knelt down and stroked the dry and shriveled bark, the look in his eyes becoming more solemn.

"This should be a polluted species that has been deeply affected by the filth of the past..."

"Is it very strong?" Chen Jing turned around and asked, "Its strength is probably equal to that of the descendants of several generations?"

"Sequence four or sequence five."

Chen Bofu stood up slowly and walked forward quickly with a solemn expression.

Until he reached the torn wound on the tree trunk.

Only then did the old man stop.

"This wound... looks like it was cut by something..."

Chen Bofu frowned more and more, staring at the horrific wound and muttering to himself.

"This Tusuo Tree is considered a high-sequence contaminated species. It shouldn't be chopped into pieces like this... Ryan! What are you squatting there and tinkering with!"

At this moment, Ryan was squatting in the crown of the tree, digging at the bark with his hands.

"Master! I'm looking for the heart of the Tusuo Tree!" Ryan shouted without raising his head, "I can be promoted if I find it!"

"Does this need to be planed?" Chen Bofu smiled disdainfully and suddenly raised his right leg.

I saw the veins on the withered leg muscles, and the toes were stretched tight in the flip-flops...

next second.

Chen Bofu's right foot suddenly fell down, followed by an extremely terrifying earthquake.

The tree trunk, which was shaped like the backbone of a mountain, was shattered inch by inch from the middle.

It was only at this moment that everyone was able to see the inside of the Tusuo Tree... except for the tree-like organizational structure on the outermost layer, the inside was actually almost like "meat".

at the location closest to the tree canopy.

There is a green crystal about thirty centimeters in diameter.

"Is that the heart of the Tusuo Tree?" Chen Jing asked curiously.

Chen Bofu smiled and said nothing. He raised his hand and shook it gently. As if controlled by some kind of force, the crystal struggled to break away from the body of the Tusuo Tree and flew towards the old man in the air.

"Ryan! Let's go! Let's do business first!" Chen Bofu held the heart of the Tusuo Tree and shouted loudly, "We'll talk about your promotion after we're done!"

"Okay, sir! I'll go down and drive!"

"Fuck you, let's go by plane..."

"Something's wrong."

Yanque, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.

"Why is something wrong again?" Chen Boxu looked at her impatiently, and Yan Que had a puzzled expression on his face.

"Bai Aji."

Yan Que pointed at Bai Aji, who had been hovering in the sky, with a hint of vigilance in his doubtful tone.

"The bodies of the old descendants and polluted species are great nourishments for it. You can also see how much it liked these things before, but now it doesn't even rush to eat the Tusuo tree. Instead, it avoids them. And far away...why?"

Chen Jing looked up at Bai Aji.

"pollute."

Before Chen Jing could ask, Bai Aji took the initiative to give the answer, with an indescribable solemnity in his tone.

"It has been corrupted by the power of the past. If I absorb it, I will also be corrupted."

Hearing Bai Aji say this, Chen Jing suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He repeated Baiage's words to the old man.

"Corrosion?" Chen Bofu frowned and asked with some confusion, "Is it the corrosion of the old filth? But I don't feel those things..."

After saying that, the old man fell silent and stared thoughtfully at the wound of the Tusuo Tree.

"This tree shouldn't be here... it should have come all the way."

"Running here? How?" Wei Nan was a little confused.

"It runs with rhizomes. The rhizomes are its legs and feet. It runs very neatly..." Chen Bofu said with surprise, "There must be something chasing it..."

Did the Tusuo Tree come all the way?

Chen Jing thought the old man's words sounded a bit unbelievable, but when he thought of the deep pits on the other side of the hill...

It seems like it was really stepped on one by one!

"There are so many weird things in the wasteland..." Chen Boxu patted his pants and stood up slowly.

"Stop the car here first, Jingjing, please ask Bai Aji to get down."

Chen Bofu looked back at the RV parked at the foot of the hillside, with a hint of solemnity in the seemingly calm expression on his face.

"Let's sit down and worship Aji now. We should seize the time to go to the Yellow King's Courtyard to do business..."

"Are you afraid that the person who killed the Tusuo Tree will ruin our affairs?" Yanque asked coldly.

"That's right. I always feel that it's not easy to kill the thing in the Tusuo Tree. Hunting down high-level pollutants all the way while ensuring that no trace of one's own breath remains at the scene. This method only reminds me of some people..." Chen Bofu smiled and did not hide his vigilance.

At this time, Bai Aji had landed next to everyone, with a reluctant expression on his face.

Chen Bofu had no intention of comforting Bai Aji, who looked unhappy, so he jumped on its back.

"Let's go and do business first."

have to say.

After Baiaji swallowed and absorbed those old descendants and contaminated species, his size increased significantly.

At least everyone won't feel crowded if they sit on it.

At most I feel a little unsafe.

"Should we find a seat belt to put on?"

As soon as Bai Aji rose into the air, Wei Nan tightly hugged Chen Jing's waist with one hand from behind, and grabbed Yan Que behind him with the other hand, with the intention of saying that if I fall, you won't be able to survive.

"Don't worry, Baiaji is very stable and won't fall down."

"Why do I feel a little wobbly..." Wei Nan was still worried.

"You're just wandering around on your own!"

Yanque put away Wei Nan's hand angrily, but the next second she was caught again by Wei Nan. She was so angry that she wanted to kick him down.

"Weird..."

Chen Boxu, who was sitting at the front, seemed to have discovered something. He lowered his head and observed the traces of the Tusuo Tree escaping all the way.

"Ryan, I remember your tribe is in the east..."

"Yeah! That's right, sir!"

"But how come this tree came from the west..."

Chen Boxu murmured, looking at the sinkholes on the mossy wilderness, the expression on his face became more solemn.

"This route..."

"It seems to be our route to the Yellow King's Courtyard..."
