There are several people in the square in front of the Main Hall.

The kind-faced abbot stood in front of the square wearing a purple robe. In front of him was an open space. In the open space, there were several people lying on the left, three on the left, and two on the right. All of them were unconscious without exception.

"Five...five more to go."

The abbot walked around the square, walking along the edge of the circle without stepping in.

The abbot stroked his eyebrows and looked at the monk who was binding someone with a red cloth: "How long has Miaozai been there?"

The monk who tied up the man paused, looked at the distance the red sun moved in the sky, and then counted with his fingers: "It's half an hour."

The abbot squinted his eyes: "It's a little slow, Shanzai, you go and take a look... No, no need."

The abbot suddenly looked to the west side of the square. The person he just mentioned was slowly walking from the path on that side. He had changed into a set of darker monk robes than when he left.

"What happened?" The abbot looked at him calmly and asked, "It takes half an hour to go to the five-story pagoda to pick up something?"

The tourists who were imprisoned in the dream may not have reached it even after half an hour, but for them who are equivalent to half... well, one-tenth of the guests in the dream, half an hour is a long time.

The monk with the moniker Miao Zai shook his head, approached the abbot, took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it out: "I met a little mouse."

"Oh?" The abbot raised his lowered eyebrows and quickly checked the box, "The little mouse last night?"

"Yes." The monk replied, "It took a while to deal with that little mouse, so I came back late."

After the abbot confirmed that the items in the box were the items needed for his ceremony, the expression on his face became a little more relaxed and more kind.

He patted Miaozai on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work. We will wait for a few more sacrifices and then we can start summoning the sacrifices."

Then the abbot pointed to the people lying on the ground: "Go and wrap them up and arrange them. The sacrifices must look like sacrifices."

Miaozai obediently walked over and dragged a person away, wrapped the person in the same cloth that was hung on the banyan tree, bound his hands and folded them in front of him, and then wrapped up all other parts, leaving only his head outside.

While the monk was doing his work, he observed the environment around the Main Hall Square.

Are the flowers around here... a bit lush?

He remembered that it wasn't like this before.

All the incense burners in the Main Hall have disappeared, replaced by small drawings similar to the giant maze arrays around it, and there are a few more pillars, ten in total.

The same goes for the nearby flower beds and bushes. Plants that are several times more lush than in reality are growing there, and they seem to be even more lush.

In fact, it's quite good, Bai Su thought. The more he grows, the more he will eat later. Isn't this free food?

The monk who packed the sacrifices was in a happy mood and tied a flower bow.

Yeah.

After using the wrong technique, he quickly untied it, changed to a normal style and then pushed the person.

The unconscious human Guru rolled into the center of the circle, and the movement attracted the attention of those who had just arrived in the square.

The human, who had almost run out of energy, knelt down in the square. Behind him was the statue that finally moved away and got rid of.

Before the thought of being saved lingered in his mind for long, he saw someone who was wrapped up and completely unable to move... wasn't this the person who lived next door to him last night!

Then several footsteps approached, and the human saw the corners of the dark monk's robe appearing in his field of vision.

Looking up along the monk's robe, humans see a harmonious smiling face.

Obviously the other person is smiling, but humans just feel like they have fallen into an ice cave.

"The new sacrifice has arrived." Human beings heard the monk say, "Please faint for a while, so you won't feel pain."

The next second, the human world fell into darkness.

……

"...It really makes people's hair stand on end." Qi Zhuyue murmured, "It is obviously a very beautiful flower."

Qi Zhuyue and An Xiangwen faced the human corpse lying in the yard.

They were not the ones who killed the human beings. After the attacker passed out, more flowers bloomed on his body, growing at a speed that Qi Zhuyue could not understand, and finally covered the entire right half of the attacker's body.

With the mutation like this, humans naturally died.

After that, An Xiangwen stopped the bleeding on his forehead. After he regained his sight, he was amazed at the attacker's body.

An Xiangwen covered his forehead and couldn't help but say: "This plant completely uses the human body as nutrition..."

Qi Zhuyue replied: "Actually, it was only on the face at the beginning..."

The black-haired girl was referring to the moment when the attacker broke into the light. She saw that the attacker's right eye was completely in the shape of a flower, with the eyeball that should have been there embedded in the center of the flower, surrounded by light yellow tongue-shaped petals.

Surrounded.

Very beautiful, but also very deformed.

Then there is the scene An Xiangwen is seeing now.

Half of the human body was pushed open by vine branches from the inside of the flesh, and the dissected bones and organs became a container filled with graceful flowers.

An Xiangwen couldn't identify many types of flowers. He could only judge that there should be chrysanthemums, lotus... most of them were lighter-colored flowers.

"It's completely different from nutrients..." An Xiangwen looked into the house along the way the attacker came, "There seems to be some in there too."

The footprints left by the attacker were black. If you look indoors, you can see some sticky black liquid dripping on the ground, with flowers swaying on the liquid.

"Do you still want to go in?" An Xiangwen asked, "I feel a little bad..."

This place feels more like the base camp of the boss in the game than the previous hall.

Qi Zhuyue frowned and stared at the human corpse on the ground for a while, then said: "You cover the wound."

An Xiangwen paused: "You mean...?"

Qi Zhuyue shook her head uncertainly: "I just guessed that maybe he had a wound... Anyway, be careful and avoid the liquid on the ground."

She intuitively felt that the problem was not so much with the liquid, but how to create a chemical reaction with it.

An Xiangwen nodded and said yes, then he took off his coat and wrapped it tightly around his head, and then he and Qi Zhuyue walked into what should be the abbot's residence.

As soon as they stepped in, their breaths stagnated in unison.

"This..." After a long time, someone spoke up.

The scenery in front of you is so beautiful that it makes your scalp numb.

Unlike the masked statues in other places, the mask of this statue is slightly lifted, revealing the mouth covered underneath.

The four-petal-shaped mouth opened slightly, and several stems crawled out from the hole in the middle, winding down and covering the body of the statue.

Not only that, from the gaps in the vines, you can see that the chest of the statue is also in a split state, similar to the human corpse outside, with the roots of the plants deeply rooted in.

There are many types of flowers, and they are mainly dark colors, with gorgeous reds hanging on bright yellows, heavy purples and depressing blacks intertwined.

"It's so beautiful..."

Humanity once again marvels.
