The look of the woman's wound reminded her of those plants in the plant world that were deprived of nutrients because they grew too close, and eventually died due to weakness.
Therefore, although this kind of vine can use its sharp thorns to sting living creatures, it can even pierce its own parasitic daughter plants directly into the bodies of living creatures.
But no matter how many sub-strains there are, only the strongest one will survive in the end?
This is really a cruel competition rule.
It's the same for the vines and the people they parasitize.
Soon, the man and the girl brought what she needed. ??
"You guys step back first, and no matter what you see, don't make a sound, got it?" she instructed.
The father and daughter nodded sharply in fear, and then they retreated to a corner of the room.
The two couldn't help but huddled together, becoming each other's support, and looked at the woman on the bed worriedly.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya had made preparations before coming in.
She brought various medicinal powders with her, as well as the scalpels and silver needles she usually used.
She first inspected it carefully with her hands and found that the wound on the only surviving vine was hard, about ten centimeters in diameter, and decreasing in a radial pattern.
This means that the daughter plants may also develop.
Although it cannot be seen from the outside, there may be roots inside.
She can't be careless.
Otherwise, this woman's life would be lost.
After sterilizing the scalpel, she didn't know how to start.
"Gu, girl?"
The middle-aged man swallowed and called her weakly.
She asked with her eyes, and the other person rubbed his hands and said dryly, "Just treat it. In fact, the wound in my house has always been in terrible pain these days. If, if it really disappears, let her enjoy it as soon as possible."
went."
Even though she said that, she still saw the man's eyes turn red.
This man is not a weak person.
Facing the attack of strange vines in the city, he chose to protect his wife, daughter and strangers.
However, he was unable to relieve his wife's pain, and almost had his daughter killed because of his unclear identity.
Therefore, his current mood should be complicated and anxious that others cannot imagine.
But when faced with his wife's only hope, he still stood up and wanted to get a result for his wife.
How courageous and calm does this have to be?
At this moment, she seemed to be infected by the man, and she couldn't help but calm down.
She nodded slightly.
"I see."
With a rush of energy, she made the first cut slowly and forcefully according to the previously selected area. As the skin was cut open, no blood was left inside. Instead, after opening the skin, it was discovered that there was a faint dark green color inside.
This is why the vines take root inside.
While she was carefully opening the woman's wound, she was still thinking about the time when she saw Elder Sheng going crazy.
At that time, the vines on Elder Sheng's body broke out directly.
He was still bleeding from those wounds.
But there is no blood in the wound she opened now. In other words, if the vine is parasitic to a certain extent, it may not suck people's flesh and blood, but just achieve symbiosis in another way?
She continued digging inside.
Soon, she discovered that the small sub-plant had actually grown into a ball the size of a fist.
Just because it's hidden in a woman's flesh, it doesn't look that scary from the outside.
"ah!"
Behind her, the girl couldn't help but let out a soft cry, but immediately thought of her instructions and covered her mouth tightly.
But those clear eyes were still tainted with a bit of fear.
Those are real people!
The weird snake-like vines were firmly rooted in the mother's flesh and blood.
From that moment on, the girl was not only afraid, but also a little obsessed.
That vine is a disaster, a ghost, an unknown thing!
She must find a way to completely remove this thing in the future!
Lin Mengya didn't look at the girl and changed her hand to a silver needle.
Although she was not very clear about the vines' usual movements, one thing she was sure of was that the so-called nutrients absorbed by the vines were the blood of living people.
With the needle falling, she sealed several veins on the woman's back, completely cutting off the vine's source of nutrition.
She can't seal it for too long, otherwise the sealed area will become necrotic.
So, she is gambling.
Time passed little by little.
Seeing the sealed part of the woman gradually turning blue and white, Lin Mengya couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
The vines remained motionless.
In the system, Xiaoyao is also constantly analyzing.
"Did we guess wrong? The vines don't rely on blood vessels to absorb blood?"
But how can the blood from the back alone provide enough nutrition for the vines?
Lin Mengya had already raised her hand.
If there was still no response after ten seconds, she would immediately pull out the silver needle and let that part bleed.
Suddenly, the vines moved.
She thought it was her eyesight, but she didn't
Thinking of the next moment, the vine that was still clinging to the woman's body actually pulled out of the woman's wound like an octopus.
At this moment, everyone took a breath of air.
Lin Mengya kept staring intently.
The vines seem to be really moving.
But how could Lin Mengya give it such an opportunity?
Her hands quickly applied the needles.
It took just a few seconds to seal all the places where the vines could be moved.
Then, as soon as the last rhizome of the vine was pulled out of the woman's body, Lin Mengya quickly pulled out the vine with her bare hands, and her other hand almost pulled out the silver needle on the woman's back at the same time. .??.
"fire!"
She shouted coldly, and the guard immediately came to her with a brazier.
Lin Mengya tied the vine into a knot, covered it with a cloth, and threw it into the red charcoal basin.
The cloth had been soaked in a lot of kerosene, and almost as soon as it touched the sparks, it started to burn.
Then, Lin Mengya smelled a strong burnt smell.
She only caught a glimpse of the burnt vines, which struggled violently for a few times before turning into ashes.
The whole process actually only takes a few minutes in total.
But for the people around you, it is enough to remember for a lifetime.
Especially the father and daughter.
Their cognition was almost directly subverted.
Are those things really just vines?
"Now that the patient has lost a lot of blood, the best way is to rest. As for whether there will be any sequelae, it's hard to say now."
Lin Mengya quickly cleaned the other wounds, then sutured them, took off her gut gloves and gave instructions to the father and daughter.
It seems that her guess just now was good.
The daughter plants of this vine survive and develop by sucking the blood of the parasite.
If the parasitized person dies, the daughter plants will leave and find new parasites.
This is a very scary feature.
If there are really people who are parasitized or leave here, then once the conditions are met, the vines will become parasitic and cause a catastrophe.
There was just one thing she couldn't figure out.
Why were the vines tightened when she opened the woman's flesh?
She found several small holes in the woman's back.
It is obvious that these are the traces left when the vine's daughter plants try to expand outward.
Maybe the disappearance of the vines in the entire Sheng family is like the woman, who has all shrunk back to where they were?
She suddenly had some extremely bad premonitions in her heart.
"Brother, did anything strange happen here before the vines suddenly disappeared?"
she asked. The middle-aged brother who was busy taking care of his wife was also stunned.
Of course he knew everything about his wife's savior.
After thinking hard for a while, he patted his head and said, "If there's anything strange about it, my daughter seemed to smell the fragrance of flowers last night."
He pushed the little girl.
The latter was still timid, but at least he was brave enough to talk to her.
"I, I smelled it last night when I was making medicine for my mother in the yard."
The medicine tastes bitter, so the little girl will notice the distinctive floral fragrance in the air.
In addition, those people were very timid and would only hide in the house, refusing to come out or open the windows, so they didn't smell it.
"Master, I think we may have to escape for our lives."
In the system, Xiaoyao couldn't help but warn her.
The sub-plants are in the juvenile stage, so those huge vines that can almost wrap up the entire Shengjia City are most likely in the adult stage.
Elder Sheng's wounds caused when the vines broke out of his body were all gone.
Obviously, part of the energy absorbed by the vines can be fed back to the parasite.
So how far can the vines develop with so many lives in Shengjia City?
Lin Mengya's face became increasingly serious.
"Inform the people outside to help and send all the survivors out of the city! Others, come with me to Sheng Mansion to investigate the situation."
Before that, she had to thoroughly check the physical condition of those people to prevent them from taking Zi Zhu out.
As soon as they heard that they could leave the city, most people looked like they were crying with joy.
There were few objections to the inspections mentioned by Lin Mengya and his party.
However, shit-stirring things are inevitable no matter where they are.
"Get your dirty hands off! If you dare to touch me again, I will chop off your hands!"
It was the dude surnamed Zhao who made the most noise.
Lin Mengya frowned and walked over, only to see that the man was so angry that he wanted to fight her people.
"What?"
Time is running out. If you delay for one more second, everyone here, including them, will be in danger.
But the dude named Zhao glared at her fiercely.
"I can leave as soon as I want. There is no need for you to pretend to be kind!"
This is really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he does not recognize a good heart.
"I just asked you to take off your clothes for inspection. The situation is special. I hope you can understand and cooperate."
"Oh, you can take it off if you want me to."
The dude surnamed Zhao pointed at her, with a lewd smile on his lips.
"Ask her and that little girl to serve the young master while I undress and take off my belt, I will agree!"
