"What?" I looked at the thing held in Lan Linfeng's hand, feeling a little confused.

Lan Linfeng turned his wrist. It was a smooth plant vine with the nature of a wisteria. The other end of the vine had broken and was shaking on the ground.

"..."

"It's too greedy, otherwise... if we had to deal with it, it wouldn't be so simple." Lan Linfeng smiled.

"That's..." Jingyun pointed at the vines and her expression changed: "Is there really a man-eating tree?"

"You said this is a man-eating tree?" Bai Ziyang pointed to the withered trunk and said in disbelief: "How is that possible?"

"Xiao Ning, tell me!" Grandpa frowned.

"Well, what kind of thing is this is still open to debate, but one thing is certain. It is indeed too greedy. It wants to catch us all in one fell swoop, but it doesn't want to give up its own life. It's hidden under the roots of the tree.

The face is probably the last unlucky guy who was stored as nourishment." I flicked my fingers at the vine: "This thing is not dead yet, what are you going to do?"

Lan Linfeng wrapped the vine around his waist, tied it into a knot, and said with a smile: "Keep it, the environment here is weird and unpredictable, maybe it can come in handy."

"What? You still have that thing?" Bai Ziyang looked at the vine that had tightened around Lan Linfeng's waist and said disapprovingly: "Aren't you afraid that it will stab you in the back?"

"Although it has developed spiritual wisdom, its IQ is not high. It probably hasn't learned such a high-IQ thing as stabbing in the back, but it has to do it anyway." Lan Linfeng said, holding one end of the vine and touching it with a trace of ice.

Blue spiritual power was transmitted from his fingertips to the vines, and the gray-white vines were immediately wrapped with ice-blue silk threads, making them look gorgeous and delicate.

After dealing with the vines, we didn't bother paying attention to the human faces under the withered trees. Grandpa moved quickly towards the tree hole in his memory with eagerness.

When we arrived at the tree hole one step at a time, grandpa let go of his heart. Fortunately... this place is still there.

The tree is very thick, and it takes six or seven people to hug it. On one side of the tree, there is a hole half a person's height. The hole is pitch black. When I shine a flashlight through it, I find that the space inside is very large.

The unique woody smell of the trees and the fishy smell of earth rushed into the nostrils, and in the innermost part of the tree, there was a bed-like place covered with hay, with traces of human life on it. Next to the hay, there was an emergency light.

and a backpack with half of its bottom broken off. Of course there could be nothing in the backpack, and the messy footprints on the ground showed that there were humans who visited here not long ago. So...are these people the ones Jingyun refers to?

What about those people mentioned?

"Someone lived here." Lan Linfeng frowned, stooped in, and took the backpack in his hand: "Besides, they ran into trouble, right here!"

"It doesn't look like they hid here. That backpack was not abandoned in a hurry, but was thrown away after it broke. That emergency light..." Jingyun also ducked in and picked up the

The emergency light looked at it and a smile appeared on his lips: "Sure enough, the light bulb was broken and was discarded because it was unusable."

"So... it's safe here?" Bai Ziyang also got into the tree hole, sat on the hay and smiled: "Now, we can sleep very comfortably without any effort."

"Since that's the case, let's clean up here first and have something to eat. We'll go to the lake later and I'll take you to my real secret base." Grandpa also ducked in and put his backpack away while doing it.

He took out dry food and distributed it to several people.

I stood outside the tree hole, looking up at the towering trees, and then looking down at the soft soil. There was always a lingering haze in my heart. Lan Linfeng also looked at me thoughtfully.
