When Jianxiu Penetrates Into the Infinite Stream: Chapter 14
Xie Liuyi carried Fang Mingyu along the main road of the village to the entrance of the village.
Some of the villagers passing by looked at her curiously, and some warmly greeted her to enter the store for consumption, but Xie Liuyi ignored them all. When passing by Fang Mahua's main store, Fang Mahua was hanging a red rope on the Ping An tree. When she saw her, she immediately smiled and greeted her.
"Have you eaten? If you haven't, come in and eat? Just cooked."
Xie Liuyi is really not good at dealing with the enthusiasm of strangers. Since Fang Mahua is not completely unfamiliar, she can't ignore it. She nodded her head sullenly as a response, and then quickly walked out of the village.
The river outside the village is gurgling, and there are sparkling waves in the moonlight. On the ground and trees on the other side of the river, I don't know how many mandrills were guarding, and their yellow eyes glowed in the dark.
Xie Liuyi walked onto the bridge calmly, and the group of mandrills on the opposite side screamed and started to riot. She threw Fang Mingyu on the ground and lifted the sheet to reveal his figure.
"Where's the Mandrill King?" Her right hand calmly covered the boning knife at her waist.
There was another burst of squealing in the mandrill group, and then the mandrill group separated, and a mandrill with a larger body and a more colorful face came out.
It came over and stretched out its claws towards Fang Mingyu on the ground, Xie Liuyi pulled out the deboning knife around his waist and slapped it on its claws. The mandrill was frightened, took two steps back, fell on all fours, bared his teeth at Xie Liuyi, and let out a threatening scream.
However, they didn't care about their threat to Xie Liuyi, she put the knife across Fang Mingyu's neck, "You are not the mandrill king."
The mandrill either understood her words or understood her threatening movements, stopped screaming and looked at her panting. Xie Liuyi looked at it without fear.
After a while, the mandrill was defeated, turned around and took two steps, looked back at Xie Liuyi, and motioned for her to follow.
The surrounding mandrills began to scream again, as if they wanted to scare Xie Liuyi away.
Xie Liuyi packed Fang Mingyu again, afraid that he would suffocate, so he deliberately showed his head. He picked up Fang Mingyu, clenched the boning knife in his right hand, and followed without hesitation.
The mountains and forests were quiet and dark, and the big mandrill seemed to be haunted by the losses he had suffered before, and deliberately chose a road with no moonlight and rough terrain.
There are dozens of mandrills that can be seen around, some are walking on the ground, some are jumping between the branches above their heads, and from time to time they make threatening roars at Xie Liuyi. It is not known how many mandrills are in the forest further afield.
Xie Liuyi was not an ordinary person. She carried Fang Mingyu and easily followed the big mandrill, turning a blind eye to the demonstrations of other mandrills beside her.
The air became obviously humid, and the mandrills stopped making noises. The surroundings were extremely quiet. Only the sound of mandrills jumping in the forest and the ticking of water could be heard.
Maybe it was because of the fresh air, Fang Mingyu, who fainted from pain, woke up, found his situation, and immediately begged for mercy, "Don't, don't hand me over to the Mandrill King, I was wrong , I was wrong, you can let me do anything. By the way, God, I can give you the opportunity to follow God, as long as you become a servant of God, you will be immortal and immortal, please…”
After walking for such a long time, Xie Liuyi was also a little bored. When someone came to chat, she didn't mind saying a few words.
"What does God look like?"
Fang Mingyu was frightened now and said everything to Xie Liuyi, "I have never seen it, I was dragged out of the cable car by a mandrill, they... they ate me... Later, God suddenly came, He said he could resurrect me as long as I worked for him."
"What do you do?" Xie Liuyi asked.
Fang Mingyu was silent for a moment, then hesitantly replied in a low voice: "God... wants me to sacrifice players. He said this is a game, and I am a game NPC. Within the rules of the game, the more players die, the more it is good."
Games... So Chen Xiaofeng's speculation is right, this is really a game.
Seeing Xie Liuyi not speaking, Fang Mingyu panicked, "God forced me, I was forced! Please let me go, as long as you let me go, I can tell you to pass the customs The way. Don't hand me over to the Mandrill King, please, take me back..."
"Tell me about it." Xie Liuyi said absentmindedly.
Fang Mingyu didn't want to hand over his chips easily, but the aerial roots of the banyan tree had appeared in the air, and it was obvious that they would soon reach the fine banyan tree. The trunk of the banyan tree was the domain of the mandrill king.
"I said, I said, it's a sacrifice. You just need to find a cableway ticket for going down the mountain, and bring a living person down the mountain. When you encounter a mandrill blocking the road, sacrifice the living person. You can go down the mountain safely. There is a gate to the scenic spot at the foot of the mountain. After you go out, you will leave this dungeon. You have a lot of companions, all of them are living people. Just choose one of them. It is useless to keep those old, weak, sick and disabled things. With this method, at least half of the players will survive."
Seeing Xie Liuyi's feet kept on, Fang Mingyu collapsed, crying and begging, "Don't go, don't go any further. Even if you hand me over to the Mandrill King, it may not be released. Over you. It will eat you, it will."
In the darkness, Xie Liuyi raised his eyebrows. The two ways Song Ye guessed to pass the test turned out to be correct, but the two seemed to achieve different results.
The survival probability of dedicating Fang Mingyu to the Mandrill Queen is actually 55%, but this one is obviously more difficult to achieve. According to the rules of high risk and high return, the reward that can be harvested should be more Much is right.
Fang Mingyu, who was on his back, suddenly struggled, probably due to the desire to survive, and the sheets were almost unable to hold him. Xie Liuyi had to stop, and even threw the bed sheet onto the tree next to him and knocked unconscious, so he picked it up and continued walking.
It was originally going up the mountain, but now it probably crossed the ridge and started going down. The road under my feet became more and more wet, and soon, water of different sizes appeared on the ground, and more and more tree roots swelled out.
In the darkness, a soft green light gradually appeared, and the front suddenly opened up. In the middle of a large misty water, stood a giant tree. The tree was extremely thick, and the crown blocked the sky.
The body of the tree exudes a soft and hazy shimmer, which illuminates the water like a dream. The big mandrill who brought Xie Liuyi over stopped at the edge of the water, on all fours, leaning over and bowing, looking extremely respectful. The other mandrills did not step into the water, but lay quietly in the darkness.
Xie Liuyi knew that this was the residence of the Mandrill King.
She carried Fang Mingyu into the water. The water was only a shallow layer, barely reaching my ankles. Fortunately, the cloud-toed boots on her feet are made of the same material as the clothes.
The roots are higher than the water surface, forming a circle of dry land with no water, scattered highlands and unevenness around the banyan tree.
The closer you get, the more clearly you can feel how magnificent this banyan tree is.
Standing on the root of the tree and looking up, the height of about four meters is full of tree roots coiled with qiu knots, and the tree body supported by the roots of different thicknesses is like an invisible arc. wall.
Innumerable large and small holes are formed between the roots of the trees.
Not far away, there was a rustling sound from behind a tree root where three people hugged.
Its face is not as bright and colorful as other mandrills, but the whole face is uniform, dark red like blood, on its wrinkled face like dried blood.
After it got out of the roots, it didn't get any closer, just standing a dozen meters away, a pair of dark yellow eyes looked at Xie Liuyi emotionlessly.
Xie Liuyi threw the packaged Fang Mingyu over, clenched the boning knife in his right hand, and watched the movements of the Mandrill King vigilantly.
The mandrill king stretched out his claws, and the moment the sharp claws touched the package, there was a tearing sound, the sheets shattered, and the fainted Fang Mingyu and its limbs scattered in the air. The mandrill king waved his paws lazily, and Fang Mingyu's head and torso split in two, fell between the knotted tree roots, and rolled into the ground along the roots.
Glancing at Xie Liuyi, the mandrill king tilted his head towards the banyan tree and made a babbling snort.
The air roots in a radius of hundreds of miles trembled, like a banyan tree responding.
One tree, one mandrill, you and I talked for a few rounds, Xie Liuyi couldn't help it.
She raised her hand and grabbed the wisp of air hanging over her head, her voice was cold and emotionless, "What do you say?"
The Mandrill King looked at him with oppressive eyes, slightly pursed his lips, and revealed his sharp teeth. Xie Liuyi didn't care, tugged at the air root in his hand, "Speak."
"Outlander, thank you for bringing sinners to us. From now on, no mandrill on this mountain will be your enemy. You can go down the mountain and leave."
"Really? I don't believe it." Xie Liuyi replied in his mind.
Among the two customs clearance methods, sending Fang Mingyu to the Mandrill King is very difficult and dangerous, and even a fool knows that it should be more profitable than sacrificing a companion. The banyan tree and the mandrill king were there just now, you went to and fro for a long time, and you gave a mandrill exemption as a reward for co-authoring? This reward is only valid within this dungeon, how about a fool?
But just now she was pleasantly surprised to find that when she communicated directly through her consciousness, the taciturn seal in the sea of consciousness did not respond.
"Outlander, what do you want?" The voice of the spirit of the banyan tree was soft and helpless.
"If I guessed correctly, it wanted to kill me just now, right?" Xie Liuyi tried to say a few more words in the sea of knowledge, but the seal of silence really did not restrict her.
The trembling air roots suddenly froze, Xie Liuyi sneered, "You detained the souls of hundreds of villagers for such a killing addiction, and cut off their reincarnation path?"
The banyan tree trembled, and the mandrill king anxiously used his claws to plan the ground. Although he could not hear the conversation between Xie Liuyi and Banyan tree, he could feel the banyan tree's emotions.
Because of the restriction and comfort of the banyan tree, it did not attack directly, but only roared at Xie Liuyi from a distance. This roar was comparable to the big mandrill just now, like a lion and a groundhog difference in calls. The stench of wind blew across Xie Liuyi's face from a distance of more than ten meters.
Xie Liuyi held the air root in his right hand and fanned his nose in disgust with his left hand.
"Outlander," Banyan Tree's voice sounded in Xie Liuyi's mind, "My child made mistakes, and so did I. But another force enveloped the world, and the road to reincarnation has long been broken. If I don't take away the souls of the villagers, they will become the nourishment of that power."
"That power is stronger than mine, and my children have been eroded by it, becoming powerful, and becoming unruly, cruel and bloodthirsty. For the sake of not hurting the villagers, I'll persuade it to let you go."
"Originally, I should have given you my essence, which can heal all wounds. But without essence, I will be weak and fall into a deep sleep. At that time, my children will be Lead its pack into the village and prey on your companions and villagers. Even so, do you insist on your reward?"
