When Shao Xuan came down from the tree, the crowd gathered around him immediately. They had all heard what Ta had said.
"Is this the seedling of the Green Thief?" Tuo stared at the sprout in Shao Xuan's hand, which was smaller than a finger.
"Can it be eaten?"
Keke pushed the people in front of him aside. He was about to take the sprout from Shao Xuan's hand, but was stopped by Ta Heng's arm.
"Let me have a look." Ta said.
Seeing Ta come over, Shao Xuan handed over the sprout in his hand. As for Keke's question about whether it could be eaten, Shao Xuan thought it should be.
He didn't feel anything special when he held it in his hand, but Ta thought it was the seedling of the Green Thief.
"Xuan, how did you know there was this seedling? Did you see anything just now? "Ta asked.
They had just seen Shao Xuan walk over there as if he had seen something, and climb up the tree to pull down the seedling.
"Just now?" Shao Xuan scratched his head, as if he was trying hard to recall. He said, "Just now, someone told me there was something there, so I walked over."
"You turned around just now. What did you see?" Ta stared into Shao Xuan's eyes and asked.
Shao Xuan didn't avoid Ta's gaze, and continued, "It seemed that someone was calling me, so I turned around."
Calling you?
Who was calling you?
Was it your ancestor?
The crowd thought of this at the same time.
"Apart from this one, are there any other seedlings like this one?" Ta asked.
Shao Xuan frowned, as if he was in a dilemma.
"Think about it carefully." Ta slowed down his tone.
Shao Xuan lowered his head, as if he was trying hard to recall. In fact, he was just pretending. By now, the images of the Green Thieves had disappeared, but he had some recollection of the seedlings on the trees around him.
If the person who asked was Old Ke, Shao Xuan might have a good explanation. But to Ta, Shao Xuan did not intend to tell the truth. Since everyone thought that he was blessed by the ancestors, then he would give the credit to the ancestors. It would save him the trouble of finding excuses.
After thinking for two minutes, Shao Xuan pointed out some trees around them.
Ta didn't care about anything else and hurriedly directed everyone to look for the trees that Shao Xuan had pointed out. Now, everything else had to be put aside. Although there were still many things on the animal skin roll that they had not found, the Green Thief was enough to make up for it. It was even better than the things they had found in the past. Even if these little saplings were not completely confirmed, they were still worth searching for.
Shao Xuan didn't point to every tree, but every tree was carefully searched. They searched almost inch by inch.
Shao Xuan couldn't tell them exactly where they were. At that time, he only paid attention to one of the trees, and that was the only one he could tell the specific location of.
"Hey, I found it!!" Ah-Suo shouted happily, as if he couldn't wait to swallow the seedling in his hand. If Ta wasn't watching him, he probably would have eaten it.
Seeing this, Ta handed the long stone box with the headless Green Thief in it to Shao Xuan, "You take it first. I'll go and look for it too. Don't wander around, just wait here. "
"Okay, I know."
Shao Xuan took the stone box and leaned against a tree to rest. The reason why he could see those illusory images just now should be because of another special ability in his body. In the past, he could foresee danger, but now, he seemed to be able to see things in the past. It was just that Shao Xuan couldn't use it freely yet.
While he was resting, Shao Xuan suddenly looked down at the ground under his feet. It seemed that something was going to come out from the ground.
But the others didn't notice it at all. Maybe it was because they were all in the trees and didn't touch the ground, so they didn't realize that something was coming fast from the ground.
"Something is coming!" Shao Xuan said.
Almost at the moment when Shao Xuan said the last word, a flaming red vine came out from the ground.
Fortunately, Shao Xuan reacted quickly. When he shouted, he had already jumped up, using the trees next to him to jump higher.
"It's the Fire Spear!"
"Xuan, run!"
The people who were looking for the Green Thief seedling in the trees quickly retreated.
"I was careless!" Ta pulled out the stone axe hanging on his waist and threw it out.
Crack!
A sound like a hard piece of wood being split was heard.
A flaming red vine that was as thick as an adult's arm that was reaching towards Shao Xuan was cut off. Blood-like liquid spurted out from the broken part and spilled on the ground.
However, he only managed to cut off the tip of the vine. The vine that still had "blood" on it continued to chase after Shao Xuan. Moreover, there were more than ten vines coming out from the ground. According to Shao Xuan's estimation, there were at least fifty vines coming out from the ground, not including the short and thin ones. He didn't know if there were more vines that hadn't come out yet.
After everyone retreated, the pressure on Shao Xuan's side was greatly reduced. His current strength was limited, so he couldn't withstand these vines that were so powerful.
Although they were just vines, they were different from the red vines that Shao Xuan had seen before. The red vines directly swept their prey away, and didn't have such strong attacking power. The ones that appeared now were like spears, thrusting directly at Shao Xuan.
The tree where Shao Xuan had been standing at the beginning had already been pierced three times, and that was only in the blink of an eye.
Fire Spear, because the vines were as sharp as spears when they shot out, and the fine hairs on the vines looked like fire when they floated up. That was how it got its name.
The hairs on each vine were used to absorb, whether it was the sap of plants or the flesh and blood of humans.
People who often hunted in this green land were no strangers to this plant, so Ta and the others knew how to deal with it.
While Shao Xuan was dodging, he also paid attention to the movements of Ta and the others. This kind of behavior of the veterans in hunting was worth learning from the newbies. Now was the time to learn more.
For those experienced veterans, although they didn't have fancy body movements or fancy moves, they were all skills that had been honed through countless hunting experiences. Sometimes their reflexes were faster than their thinking, and it was almost an instinctive reaction. It was a simple but practical killing move.
The twenty people who had retreated and entered battle mode quickly coordinated with each other. Their attack power suddenly increased explosively, bringing with it a fierce aura that did not lose out to Fire Spear. Holding their respective weapons, they waved their arms non-stop. The strong and fierce strength passed through the weapons in their hands, bringing with it the sound of the wind, and smashed the waving fiery red vines. Wave after wave of attacks hit the vines.
If one of them made a mistake, their momentum would be weakened. Even if the opponent was not a Direbeast, they still had to compete with momentum.
In the blink of an eye, a large area of the ground was dyed red.
Seeing that the crisis in front of them was about to pass, a series of banging sounds came from the ground.
It turned out that Fire Spear's vines had broken out of the ground, and its original exposed body had more than doubled. It seemed that it would not stop until it was dead.
What made Shao Xuan even more depressed was that many of the vines that broke out of the ground were coming towards him.
"Xuan, stay away!!" Ta shouted over there.
However, after Ta shouted, he found that Shao Xuan, who was running away, turned around and came back!!
Seeing this, Ta was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. Damn it, I told you to stay away, why did you come back?! To drag us down?! Do you think we are not busy enough here?!
If it were in the past, Ta would not choose to fight with Fire Spear, but leave with his teammates. However, there were many Green Thief seedlings here, and he did not want to leave. He thought that the others had the same idea as him. They had no intention of retreating, so they were all in a killing frenzy. Well, it was not easy to find some Green Thief seedlings, but they were interrupted by Fire Spear. Many trees around were also destroyed, which made it more difficult to find the seedlings. What was more annoying was that there was a kid who was causing trouble here!
A strong anger flashed in Tower's eyes. He suddenly exerted strength in his legs and stepped on a thick vine. The vine under his feet suddenly burst apart like a heavy object falling down. The fine hairs on the vine that wrapped around Tower's feet were also torn apart in an instant. Ta held the stone axe in his hand and chopped repeatedly. The air was filled with the sound of cloth being torn apart, and the sound of hardwood being chopped off.
While chopping, Ta was also running towards Shao Xuan. At this moment, he wanted to kick Shao Xuan as far away as possible. Ta hated people who dragged the team down.
However, Ta had only taken two steps forward when he found that behind Shao Xuan, there was an equally huge Fire Spear. It was chasing after Shao Xuan with a murderous look, with spear-like vines breaking out of the ground.
No wonder that kid ran back.
