A young man got out of the car, went to the foot of the mountain to look around on tiptoe, and ran back again, "Captain, the road ahead is blocked."

Then a slightly indifferent voice came from the car, "Well, we'll wait here for Qin Han and the others to come over."

The people in the car were Chi Yan and the others. They set off from Xizhou early yesterday morning. Because the zombies had no body temperature, most of the zombies were frozen to death after the snow fell. Let alone chasing the car, they couldn’t even catch up with people. , so they encountered no danger along the way, and arrived at the outskirts of the provincial capital in one day.

This time, apart from Hu Man, there were also Qin Han and the others, a total of more than 30 people. Chi Yan's people opened the way in front, and Qin Han and the others followed behind. Met this mutated mandala.

Hu Man's body suddenly tilted to the side, and he pulled the car door quickly with quick eyes and hands, and then he fell to the ground without embarrassment. His head was dazed, and he said at a loss: "Captain, I seem to be a little dizzy."

Chi Yan dragged Hu Man in and said, "Close the door." As soon as the words fell, he immediately shifted into reverse gear and drove the car back slowly. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the white mandala on the animal corpse. A pure and harmless look.

The car retreated for more than 100 meters, and Hu Man finally breathed out. His face was still in a trance, and he checked the time, only 1 minute had passed, "I seem to have had a very long dream."

At this time, he heard the sound of a vehicle approaching. He got up from the passenger seat and looked behind. It was Qin Han and the others who were chasing him.

In addition to Qin Han's car, there were more than a dozen other cars he didn't recognize. Y. X. d. j.

Qin Han and others got out of the car, knocked on the window on Hu Man's side, and found that the door was not closed tightly, "What's wrong?"

Chi Yan said: "Don't go there, there is a mandala in front of you, don't get close."

After listening, Qin Han gasped, with a serious expression.Anyone with a little common sense knows that datura is poisonous, and the fruit, especially the seeds, is the most toxic, followed by the young leaves, and the dry leaves are less toxic than the fresh leaves.Datura poisoning, symptoms usually appear half an hour after eating, 20 minutes at the fastest, and no more than 3 hours at the latest. Stunned to death.

But the toxicity is not so great, it is impossible to feel dizzy after smelling the fragrance, Chi Yan looked up at the mandala covered with it, I am afraid that these mandala have mutated.

In the case of unequal information, Rao Chi Yan only guessed half right. It wasn't these mandalas. Looking at the mandalas all over the mountain, there was actually only one plant.

When the people in the vehicles behind saw the vehicle in front stopped, they rolled down the windows and shouted from a distance: "Why don't you continue walking? After passing this mountain, the Tianyang base is ahead!"

They met these people on the road. From the information they spoke, they learned that they were from the bases in several counties below. It was cold, many people died of starvation and freezing at the base, they mustered up their courage and invited a group of relatives and friends to go to the base in the provincial capital.

When Qin Han negotiated with them in the past, some people didn't take it seriously, isn't it just a mandala?In the past, the countryside was full of mountains, and they still picked them to play with, and it was not likely that anyone was poisoned. They finally arrived near the Tianyang base, and they didn't want to wait any longer. "If you don't leave, we will go first."

Cut, a bunch of cowards!

Qin Han kindly moved out of the way and let them pass.

Until the rear of the car disappeared around the corner, Qin Han asked Chi Yan, "Captain, what should we do next?"

On the opposite side of the mountain, Xiang Nanchuan and the others got out of the car, and the soldiers handed them gas masks one by one, and reminded them: "The scent of Datura flowers is poisonous, you must not take off the gas masks."

When it was sent to Xiang Nanchuan and the others, the soldiers were a little embarrassed. The number of gas masks was limited, and they were distributed according to the number of people who signed up. Each person only had one piece, but there were two more ordinary people on Xiang Nanchuan's side.

Xiang Nanchuan saw the embarrassment of the soldiers, and he reached out to take a mask, "Just give two, we have already prepared two gas masks."

Xu Yuan over there also took a mask.

Before coming, the system gave a free copy of the material about the mutated mandala, so Xiang Nanchuan and the others made preparations early in the morning. Gas masks were not sold in the market at all, so Xiang Nanchuan and the system bought two gas masks on credit. The effect of the masks Naturally, it is better than the masks issued by the military.

The soldier said with a smile, "That's good. Be careful and follow the group. Don't act alone."

Putting on the gas masks, they walked to the foot of the mountain on foot. Putting on the gas masks, they couldn't help breathing a little stuffy. Some people took off their masks, but the soldiers scolded them, and those people were still laughing, saying that they were far away. It's not too late to put on a mask when you get close.

Unexpectedly, those people walked halfway, as if they were drunk, their legs went limp, and they almost fell to the ground. The fragrance of flowers, a few people were still staggering when they walked.

At the foot of the mountain, thousands of soldiers sent by the military had already arrived there. Xiang Nanchuan glanced at the crowd, and his gaze was fixed on a white figure in camouflage uniform. Xiang Nanchuan was surprised that Su Anzhe was here too?

After thinking about it, this news was reported by Su Anzhe. Now more than 5000 soldiers and more than 100 people with supernatural powers are trapped in it. He cannot absolve himself of the blame. If he does not do something to make up for it, he may face the wrath of his superiors.

What made Xiang Nanchuan even more concerned was that Su Anzhe was bending over at this time, with his hands resting on the shoulders of a soldier. If it was dark night, he would be able to see his hands emitting a faint light. Suddenly, he realized that this Su Anzhe of the Sheng'an Cult might be a healing power user.

Probably because Xiang Nanchuan's eyes were too straightforward, Su Anzhe looked over with awareness, the two people's eyes met, Su Anzhe nodded.

Xiang Nanchuan narrowed his eyes.

Noticing the change in Xiang Nanchuan's eyes, Chen Chong and the others found Su Anzhe. Mu Dong was stunned when he saw the other party's posture. Usually he treats people by pressing his hands on the other party's wound. At this time, Su Anzhe did the same action.

Probably due to the induction of a person with the same ability, Mu Dong is extremely certain that this person is a person with a healing ability.

Over there, Su Anzhe finished treating the injured soldier. He stood up, his face pale and weak, "It's ok, it's better not to use your arms too hard these days."

Da Bing was very grateful, "Thank you so much."

Su Anzhe smiled slightly, "You're welcome, this is what I should do."

Su Anzhe bypassed the crowd and walked towards Nanchuan. He said softly, "You are the manager of the Lucky General Store, right? Last time I was in a hurry, I didn't get to know you. It's a pity. I don't want to meet you here today." " Su Anzhe smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Su Anzhe."

Xiang Nanchuan said in silence, through the gas mask, only two eyes were exposed, and the other party could recognize him.

"Elder Su, I have admired your name for a long time." Xiang Nanchuan said politely.

Su Anzhe wanted to say something else, when a man covered in blood ran down the mountain road, Su Anzhe's expression changed slightly, "I'm sorry, I'm going to save someone now, and I'll talk to you next time I have a chance."

"It doesn't matter, you go, your life is at stake." Xiang Nanchuan replied kindly.

After Su Anzhe left, he asked Nanchuan in a low voice: "Chen Chong, what do you think of him?"

Chen Chong frowned, "It's hard to say, his eyes are very clear, and he looks like someone without a city." But a person who can securely sit in the position of a church elder is not pure in himself.

If it is because of his ability to heal, this is even more abnormal. People with healing abilities do not have any attack power. If Mu Dong was not lucky enough to meet Xiang Nanchuan, he might become a vassal of a certain force. Completely lost freedom, unlike Su Anzhe, who wandered freely in various bases.

That person was seriously injured, even if Su Anzhe treated him, he died before he could finish a complete sentence.

The atmosphere in the team froze in an instant. Xiang Nanchuan saw that some supernatural beings showed timid expressions. Is the task more important or life more important?There is no need to think about this issue at all. Xiang Nanchuan has no doubt that these people will retreat first if they encounter danger.

This time, Major General Xu Luo was leading the team. He hadn't seen him in just two days. The other party looked haggard, his eyes were sunken deeply, his eyeballs were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for days and nights. Go closer and eavesdrop on what they are saying.

Across the distance, Xiang Nanchuan could only hear a vague voice, Major General Xu Luo was emotional, "...no...it's dangerous, let's check the situation first."

Then Su Anzhe suddenly raised his voice, "I agree with Major General Xu Luo's proposal."

The person who was arguing fiercely with Major General Xu Luo seemed to be strangled by someone, his face flushed, and his tone was very dissatisfied.

After some discussion, Major General Xu Luo stood up and said, "I will take fifty supernatural beings and one hundred soldiers to the mountain, and anyone who is willing will come with me."

Su Anzhe was the first to stand up.

The expression of the person arguing with Major General Xu Luo just now changed drastically, "No, Elder Su, you..."

Su Anzhe interrupted him lightly, "Needless to say, I've made a decision. If something happens, I will bear it alone."

The man shut up embarrassingly.

One after another, some people stood up. Xiang Nanchuan and the others mixed in the crowd and stood up. Because he was wearing a gas mask, Major General Xu Luo did not recognize Xiang Nanchuan and the others. Everyone went up the mountain.

The mountain road is paved with cement and stone bricks. This mountain used to be a famous tourist attraction, but at this time the mountain road has been covered by the spreading mandala, and there is no place to stay. Everyone is stepping on the leaves of the mandala. Every step is like walking on the tip of a knife, carefully.

Even though he was wearing a gas mask, Xiang Nanchuan still felt his head was heavy. Could it be that he still had a cold?

Suddenly he stopped, and the branches and leaves of Datura under his feet tightly wrapped around his ankle, and there was a pain like a needle prick in his ankle. He looked down, and the fruit of Datura was sticking to his pants.

The fruit is covered with sharp thorns, no wonder it hurts so much.

Xiang Nanchuan bent down to break the fruit, when his fingers accidentally touched the thorns on it, the thorns pierced into the belly of his finger, and a drop of bright red blood flowed down, dripping on the mandala leaves.

Xiang Nanchuan didn't care, he pulled out the fruit, and then pushed aside the vines wrapped around his ankles. Chen Chong, who was in front, saw that Xiang Nanchuan didn't follow, he turned his head and asked, "What's wrong with the store manager?"

"It's okay." Xiang Nanchuan casually stuffed the mandala fruit into his pocket, and quickened his pace to keep up with them.

Not long after they left, the vines in that area twisted wildly, and they parted, revealing a white bone underneath, and the two empty eye sockets of the skull looked at the sky.

The few cars in front drove into the mountain road, were covered by mandala vines, and disappeared without a sound in an instant.The speed man followed them quietly, seeing this scene, he quickly retreated, because he held his breath for too long, when the other party ran back, he was out of breath, "team, captain, they are gone! "

A ball of fire ignited in Chi Yan's palm. He waved his hand and threw it. The fireball landed on the mandala and turned into ashes. The vines that had escaped by chance retreated quickly like living creatures.

Hu Man excitedly said: "They are afraid of fire! The captain will set it on fire..." Before he finished speaking, he saw his expression frightened. Hu Man looked at the place where the vines faded, revealing the corpses hidden under the branches and leaves. It hasn't rotted yet, it looks like it has just died.

There are many survivors who have gone to the provincial capital these days, and the people in front of them are probably all staying here.

After Hu Man saw it, goosebumps popped up all over his body. This is not a mandala, it is a piranha!Hu Man couldn't help shivering when he thought that he would almost become a fertilizer for growing flowers, "It's too scary!"

Qin Han patted him on the shoulder, comforted him silently, and then walked over to observe the corpses at close range. There was no pain on their faces, but a stiff smile on the corners of their mouths. Their expressions were dreamy, as if It's like having a dream before dying.

After being poisoned by mandala, symptoms such as hallucinations, confusion, and inconsistency in crying and laughing will appear. These people probably died in their sleep, so they will show a dreamy expression.

Chi Yan raised his hand and rolled down the car window, his voice was low, "Close the car window tightly, let's drive over."

The vines went and came again, and they were menacing, trying to wrap around Qin Han. Qin Han quickly pinched a mutated mandala flower, took a few steps back, jumped into Chi Yan's Hummer, and climbed on the vines. A moment before coming up, he slammed the car door shut, blocking the vines outside.

Seeing that the passenger seat had been robbed, Hu Man hurried into the back seat.

The people behind got into the car one after another and closed the windows tightly. Because the car is not completely closed, there are many obvious or hidden air intakes hidden in the car, so there will be air flowing in. As soon as they drive in, everyone feels dizzy , the car almost hit the railing.

The driver pinched their thighs, and the pain woke them up. Everyone held their breath and drove away.

The wheels crushed the mandala flowers, and the ground was paved with cement, but at this time, even sitting in the car could feel the unevenness of the road surface, and one could imagine how many corpses were buried under the branches.

Chi Yan's right hand was placed on the steering wheel, and the palm of his left hand was pressed against the car window. The heat condensed, and with a "boom", a blazing flame appeared outside the car window. All the branches and vines near the car window were burned to ashes, ready to move The vines fade like the tide.

Halfway through the drive, Chi Yan stepped on the brake. Due to inertia, Hu Man sitting in the back seat slammed forward unexpectedly. He quickly grabbed the back of the seat in front. His head was always dizzy, and now he seemed to wake up from a dream, and asked nervously, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Chi Yan said in a deep voice, "There is no way ahead."

Qin Han took a closer look, the road ahead was blocked by falling rocks, and the vehicle couldn't get through at all. Qin Han obviously had some difficulty breathing, and even his voice was buzzing, "If we get off the car here, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop these Mandala."

There was only one road leading to the provincial capital, and they had to go through here no matter what.

Hu Man stared out of the window, and suddenly he yelled, "Captain! Brother Qin! There is a small road up here!"

Obviously going up the mountain at this time is not a good idea, Chi Yan opened the car door and said loudly: "Everyone get out of the car and move these stones away."

The people in the vehicle behind dawdled for a while, and got out of the car with strange shapes.In order to fight against the floral fragrance of the mandala, everyone showed their own special abilities. People with metal, wood, and earth abilities made themselves masks. People with water abilities wet their clothes, covered their mouths and noses, and burned Those with supernatural powers are the most helpless, so they can only set fire to burn all the nearby mandala flowers.

As for those with supernatural powers such as strength, speed, and vision, they use the "thigh pinch" method to keep themselves awake.

Halfway through clearing the rocks on the side of the road, Human was pulling a branch, and a stone one person tall was tied to the other end of the branch. He was trying to pull it to the side, when suddenly a few pieces of rubble fell from the mountain and hit him. In front of him, Hu Man looked up and saw a person falling from the mountain. Hu Man was shocked, and quickly threw the branch in his hand. The branch opened at a speed visible to the naked eye, woven into a net, and caught the person.

Hu Man put the man on the ground, "Hey! Are you still alive?"

The man's breath was a little weak, and his voice was so low that he could hardly hear him, "Not... not dead yet."

The man had obvious falls all over his body, Hu Man was afraid that he would die if he couldn't get up in one breath, so he took out a bottle of energy drink and fed him a few mouthfuls.

He was a little dazed, and he still hadn't come to his senses, "Thank you for saving me."

Hu Man looked at him, "Why did you fall from the mountain?"

The man was still not so clear-headed, and his words were inconsistent, "Me? By the way, we accepted the task of the Lucky General Store. A mandala flower can be exchanged for [-] gold coins. Why did I fall?" ? We went up the mountain with the military, and then..." He trembled, "Yes, there are devils!"

Chi Yan caught the "gold coin" in his words, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his voice was slightly unsteady, "Is Xiang Nanchuan also on the mountain?"

The man looked up blankly, "Who is Xiang Nanchuan?" Yu Xi said exclusively.

Chi Yan said: "The manager of the Lucky General Store!"

"I..." The man suddenly vomited. He spat out a few thorny fruits from his throat, which were stained with blood. The man pinched his throat with both hands. Due to excessive suffocation, blood rushed to his head, and his eyes protruded.

Qin Han walked up behind him, slashed with a hand knife, and the man passed out.

"Let's go up the mountain!" Chi Yan said.

After getting along for this period of time, Qin Han has already understood the importance of Xiang Nanchuan in Chi Yan's heart, even if there is a ten-thousandth chance, Chi Yan will go there without hesitation.

Leaving the vehicle down the mountain, everyone carried important food, water, and weapons on their backs, and walked up the mountain from the path.

As for the person who passed out, they threw them in the car. If the other party was lucky, they might be able to hold on until they came back.

Chi Yan's fire is the nemesis of all things. As long as it touches a little spark, the vines will immediately twist into a ball, as if devouring them, and fearing the opponent's flame, they can only follow behind them at a distance.

This section of the mountain road was excavated by the nearby villagers. In order to facilitate the daily climbing of the mountain to cut firewood, the mountain road is rugged and very difficult to walk.

Because it had just snowed and the mountain road was muddy, Hu Man's feet slipped and fell several times in a row. Qin Han couldn't stand it, and supported his arm, "Watch the road carefully."

Hu Man whispered, "I want you to take care of it."

Qin Han pretended to let go of his hand, just take it easy. "I don't care about you. Be careful yourself, don't break your face."

Hearing this, Hu Man's foot slipped and almost fell over, his expression turned fierce, "You're never finished!"

Qin Han covered his mouth, "Stop talking, someone is coming!"

Before Qin Han could speak, Chi Yan leaned over nimbly, leaning his back on the tree trunk, and a figure came stumbling along the winding mountain road.After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Chi Yan was slightly startled.

That person is... Mu Dong?
