I am no longer worthy of this resentful senior sister!

"You finally woke up. I thought you wouldn't wake up."

The voice of the ginseng baby came, full of crying.

After comforting the frightened little ginseng, Ye Linglong took a closer look at the surrounding environment.

At this time, she was in a jungle. Although it was a jungle, judging from the traces on the ground, it should be within the central city. However, compared to other places, this place was completely covered by woods.

Behind her was a huge tree. At this time, she was tied to the trunk of the big tree, and she was surrounded by people who were also tied to the trunk.

It's just that all that's left of those people is a withered skeleton, or more accurately, a mummy.

It was too late to see clearly, but there was a corpse next to Ye Linglong that still looked fresh.

The clothes on the opponent's body should be fine robes. Although they have been corroded by the unique immortal and demonic energy here and have become dilapidated, their former splendor can still be seen from them.

The most important thing was that the corpse was like a specially treated mummy. The expression on its face was very painful and desperate, as if it had suffered some kind of torture before death.

Ye Linglong was a little curious as to what happened to make this man have such a desperate expression on his face.

Soon she discovered something was wrong. There was a branch on the body that had penetrated deeply into his body.

At first, because the corpse was covered with branches, I didn't pay much attention to it, but after careful observation, I discovered that the branch was not used to imprison the opponent's movements like other branches, but penetrated deeply into the opponent's body.

It's just like……

The roots of the tree are dug deep into the soil to absorb nutrients.

Such an idea suddenly came to Ye Linglong's mind.

At the same time, she looked at the other corpses around her and found that they were all the same, with branches that had penetrated deeply into their bodies.

Ye Linglong was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head and looked at herself, fearing that she might also have that strange thing on her body.

Fortunately, after looking around, I didn't find anything.

"Don't worry, that branch just wanted to absorb the vitality in your body, but I knocked it away!" At this time, the ginseng baby stuck its head out and asked Ye Linglong for credit.

"That's all thanks to you, otherwise I would have died of diarrhea."

Ye Linglong didn't hesitate to praise her, and the little ginseng doll retracted her head into her clothes in embarrassment.

Although she is tied here now, she can still activate her Han Po. Fortunately, when she was stunned, she held Han Po in her hand, so the Han Po fell at her feet. .

hum!

Han Po, who was stuck directly on the ground, seemed to feel the call of his master. After making a strong buzzing sound, he stood up from the ground, streaked a blue stream of light in the mid-air, and chopped down the branches on Ye Linglong's body.

Bang bang bang!

After several dull sounds, Ye Linglong found helplessly that such sharp cold energy could not even leave a trace on these seemingly fragile branches.

"So hard?"

Ye Linglong, who did not believe in evil, controlled Han Po to continue chopping all the branches around him.

The sound of banging was endless, but the branches on his body were not broken, not even a piece of skin was broken.

"Don't waste your efforts. You can't get out, otherwise there wouldn't be so many corpses."

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded.

The voice was very childish, much like a child's, and Ye Linglong was very familiar with it. It was the angry voice that she heard last time in the illusion.

"It finally showed up. How long did I think you could wait?" Ye Linglong's eyes suddenly turned to the left. Although there was no one there at this time, the sound was really coming from there.

"How did you find me?"

After pondering for a while, the voice appeared again, and then, the space in that area was distorted, and a little boy wearing a gold crown and a purple-gold robe appeared in mid-air.

At this time, he looked at Ye Linglong with eyes full of inquiry, as if he was very curious.

"Who are you?" Ye Linglong asked.

In the central city of this ancient secret realm, when such a richly dressed little boy suddenly appeared, Ye Linglong would not really think that the boy was just an ordinary child.

It's very possible that it's not even a human being. After all, there's no way a human child can survive here.

The child's body suddenly moved in front of Ye Linglong. It wasn't until the two were very close that he slowly spoke: "Before answering the question, shouldn't you answer my question first? Are you humans all like this? impolite."

Ye Linglong: "..."

you? Humanity?

It seems that he is really not human.

Ye Linglong thought in her mind, staring at the boy's eyes. She found that the child's eyes were actually purple-gold, and there was a faint flash of light in the pupils.

What a beautiful pair of eyes, I sighed in my heart.

Seeing Ye Linglong staring at him distractedly, the boy frowned and seemed a little unhappy: "You haven't answered my question yet."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand and clenched his fist slightly, and then Ye Linglong felt the branches on her body tightening.

The pain made her frown slightly.

"Actually, it's very simple. You have already spoken out in the illusion. There is no reason why you were not there when I woke up. There is only one reason. You must be hiding somewhere here."

After a quick explanation, the branches slowly relaxed to the point where they started.

Ye Linglong breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and was ready to hide in the space at any time. The reason why she had not entered the space until now was because she was still a little worried.

Now she still hasn't figured out what this child is. If she rashly enters the space and the other party discovers the secret of the jade pendant and controls the jade pendant, then she will really be passive.

It was impossible for her to stay in the jade pendant all her life.

Besides, there is a time limit for the opening of the ancient secret realm. Once the time is up, the secret realm will be closed. When it is opened again, no one knows how long it will take.

Ye Linglong didn't want to be left here.

So she could only wait for an opportunity.

But if it really comes to a life-and-death moment, she will definitely put life-saving as her first priority.

"You humans are really cunning." After listening to Ye Linglong's explanation, the little boy wrinkled his cheeks and complained, seeming to have great opinions on humans.

"Okay, now that I have answered your question, you should also answer mine."

Facing Ye Linglong's doubts, the little boy tilted his head and thought for a moment with a cool face, then slowly said: "I am a weapon spirit."
