Chapter 322 Flying Insects
Without the white fog, the surrounding scenery became clear again.
Only then did the two of them see clearly that a strange-looking old tree was swinging from side to side dozens of meters away from them.
It's hard to tell what kind of tree it is, but from the outside, its trunk is as thick as two people hugging each other. What's even more frightening is that its branches are extremely lush. Each branch is like an octopus's tentacles.
It swings and looks very scary.
The vines just now extend from this big branch. Although some of them were burned by Sun Wukong's Samadhi True Fire, there are still a lot of them left.
Su Xiaowan was surprised and said: "Brother, is this a tree spirit?"
Sun Wukong pondered for a moment and said: "Looking at the situation just now, it does look like an old tree that has become a spirit. But..."
Su Xiaowan seemed to realize what Sun Wukong was going to say, so she said, "It has no evil spirit."
"That's right."
Sun Wukong nodded, looking a little weird.
"It stands to reason that the evil spirit of an old tree that has become a spirit should be very strong, but why does this tree have no breath at all?"
Su Xiaowan also felt strange, but she couldn't feel the evil spirit herself, so she couldn't make any accurate judgment.
"Brother, do you think the people who were poisoned in the city were caused by this thing?" Su Xiaowan thought for a while and asked.
"Those people died of poisoning, and if it was made by this old tree, they should have no chance to return to the city." Sun Wukong said.
While the two were talking, the weird big tree not far away suddenly stopped swinging. At the same time, its branches and leaves began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Sun Wukong and Su Xiaowan looked shocked. They thought to themselves, what is this?
As the degree of withering worsened, the bark on the big tree also began to fall off. Not long after, the entire tree fell to the ground with a bang, completely broken into a pile of dead branches and leaves.
Su Xiaowan glanced at Sun Wukong beside her in surprise, and murmured: "Brother, what's wrong with it?"
Obviously, Sun Wukong was also confused by the scene in front of him. The old tree that had been so aggressive just now and wanted to trip them down and kill them, why did it wither and die in a short time?
Su Xiaowan wanted to step forward to check. But as soon as her right foot took the first step, it was caught by Sun Wukong.
"etc!"
Sun Wukong frowned, staring intently at the remains of the big tree that had fallen to the ground not far away.
Su Xiaowan was shocked. Although she didn't feel any danger, it was definitely not a good thing to make Sun Wukong so nervous.
So, she consciously moved behind Wukong and asked in a low voice: "Brother, have you discovered anything?"
Sun Wukong did not speak, but continued to stare at the ground in the distance.
After a few breaths, a light green light point suddenly flew out of the pile of dead tree debris.
The light spot itself is very small, and the light it emits is also extremely weak.
But just this flash of green light gave Su Xiaowan inexplicable goosebumps when she saw it.
Green light spots flickered, like fireflies in the dark night, flying towards Sun Wukong and Su Xiaowan little by little.
As the light spot got closer and closer to them, the two finally saw clearly what it was.
It turned out that this was really a flying insect the size of a fingernail.
Flying insects are somewhat similar in size to bees, but their speed is much slower than the latter. At most, they are similar to some small butterflies.
At such a speed, it obviously does not pose a threat to people.
