A bundle of roots from the Grimace Tree gave Su Wen an additional understanding of Zheng Ming and Wu Yong.
The two of them didn't get along very well in Guixu, but they were also pragmatic enough.
There are so many opportunities on the Ghost Island. People who have the ability and the opportunity to go to the island would not even bother to dig things like the roots of the Ghost Face Tree.
But the two of them chose to do such a thing. This is not because they are stupid, but because they are smart.
Good things cannot be kept in their hands. But like a bundle of tree roots... even if it is worth a lot of money, most extraordinary people will not snatch it out of shame. If such news spreads, the reputation will not be good - although
The extraordinary beings in Guixu don't pay much attention to face, and the more notorious they are, the more complacent they are.
But there is a difference between the reputation of a bully who kills countless people and dominates an area, a bully that both extraordinary and weirdos hate and fear, and a bastard who only bullies the weak and robs even bark, grass and roots.
Everyone hates the former and wants to be such a bully, while the latter can only be despised by everyone.
During this trip to the Ghost Island, Zheng Ming felt that even if he returned with a full load, the only things he could keep in the end, apart from the things that could be transformed into strength on the Ghost Island, were only tree roots and a few worthless things.
Zheng Ming was worried that the fog ghost would appear again, so he carefully broke off some tree roots, rubbed them hard on his clothes, and mixed the breath of the grimacing tree with his body. He also handed some to Su Wen and said kindly: "This stuff...can't be applied on
It’s poisonous on the skin…”
Su Wen nodded, but did not take the root that Zheng Ming handed over. The smell of the Grimace Tree on him could kill the fog ghosts, so there was no need to apply it again.
"...Young man, how about you...you look more and more familiar the more you look at me...have we met somewhere?"
Zheng Ming was also very curious about Su Wen's identity, but he quickly added: "It's okay if it's inconvenient to reveal, I understand all the rules..."
"My name is Su Wen...we have met once...I was hiding behind a rock, and you and your companions found me..."
"Ah...really?"
Zheng Ming patted his head, thought seriously for a while, and sighed repeatedly: "Indeed... Wu Yong and I were very scared at that time, afraid that you would kill us and silence us... Why did you come here... Well... I just said
Well, you were hiding it, otherwise why would you have come to the Ghost Island alone... Fortunately, we ran fast at that time..."
When listening to Zheng Ming's words, he seemed to be a little excited, and he knew in his heart that the fog ghost had done serious harm to Zheng Ming.
Zheng Ming, who has always been as timid as a mouse, felt no fear when he saw him. It is likely that some of Zheng Ming's emotional changes disappeared with the loss of part of his soul.
"The fog ghost is quite powerful..."
Su Wen became a little more wary of the fog ghost.
"...Then I'll call you Xiao Su?"
Zheng Ming said tentatively: "After all, brother, I have grown a lot older. It would be embarrassing to call you big brother..."
"OK."
Su Wen said happily: "Let me call you Lao Zheng." In his heart, he directly called Ren Zhengan and Su Muzhe Lao Ren and Lao Su. Zheng Ming was on par with the two in terms of titles.
"good!"
Zheng Ming was very satisfied. He thought for a while and asked: "Have you seen my brother... Wu Yong... He looks... well, how should I put it... he looks ordinary, just standing next to him
, if he doesn't speak, everyone will think that he doesn't exist...not just him, but me too..." Zheng Ming is a very self-aware person.
"I've seen it... Earlier, he parted ways with Xie Lingfeng and said he was looking for you..." Su Wen also confirmed that Zheng Ming's memory also had problems, and kindly reminded him: "You just asked this question
Already..."
"Oh...really?" Zheng Ming hesitated for a moment and patted his head: "It seems so...by the way, what's your name?"
"..."
After the conversation with Zheng Ming, Su Wen equated the dangers of fog ghosts and strange bats.
It only took Su Wen a quarter of an hour to realize the damage caused by the fog ghost to Zheng Ming.
When Zheng Ming first met him, he could still talk rationally, but in the end, his thinking was confused, his memory was missing, and he was confused. He even thought his name was Wu Yong or even Yang Kang, and he had no memory of where he was.
Su Wen took out his notebook and recorded Zheng Ming's symptoms.
Fortunately, a quarter of an hour later, Zheng Ming's symptoms were relieved. Although his speech was still confused, his thinking had recovered and his memory was relatively normal.
But emotionally, there is still no change.
"Are you coming with me or going alone?"
Su Wen quickly wrote down the taboo content in the Eye of the Ghost on a piece of paper and handed it to Zheng Ming. He had no hope for Zheng Ming's memory, so he had to write down the danger levels of various areas. If
Zheng Ming wants to part ways with him to increase his chances of survival.
Of course, Su Wen didn't want Zheng Ming to go with him.
After all, he was targeted by the Ghost Eye, and the danger he encountered would be ten times greater than that of others. If Zheng Ming followed him, the danger he would encounter would naturally increase.
"Let's go together... Even if we are in danger, we can still take care of each other..."
When Zheng Ming heard that Su Wen was maliciously targeted by the Ghost Eye, he did not show any fear. Instead, he looked at Su Wen up and down, trying to figure out what secrets Su Wen had that could lead to such severe sanctions.
Su Wen naturally didn't bother to explain. It was very difficult to explain the problem to someone who always forgot what he said in the last sentence.
Su Wen noticed that there seemed to be very few dangers in the white area. He only saw the fog ghost floating around from time to time, but the smell of the Grimace Tree on the two people was too strong. When the fog ghost felt the two people's breath, they left far away.
Didn't bother me.
But Su Wen soon discovered that the color of the white channel was changing.
The stone walls, which are as white as lime, are already dusty, and large areas of black spots have appeared in many places. The black spots are spreading in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this scene, Su Wen understood that the white passage could turn into a black area at any time, and countless taboo creatures would appear around them and attack them.
"Why has the color changed here... Black is dangerous, right?"
Zheng Ming looked at the black spots around him, glanced at Su Wen and handed him the paper, and said carelessly: "It seems... we will be in danger soon." After losing his fear, he faced what he encountered.
Danger was something he didn't take seriously. After all, he no longer felt fear.
"...That's right."
Su Wen responded. He even felt that Zheng Ming was quite good like this. Otherwise, with his timid and fearful character, the slightest sign of trouble would scare him half to death, which would definitely hold him back.
"Fog ghost, there is a fog ghost ahead!"
Zheng Ming suddenly shouted excitedly: "What a big lump!"
"...Stop talking! Why are you so excited..."
Su Wen suddenly regretted that he shouldn't have brought this fool with him.
The fog ghosts I saw along the way were no bigger than a washbasin. I saw the two of them from a distance and ran away. But the fog ghost that appeared in front was comparable to a heavy truck. It was entrenched in front. The fog ghost had a row of bright black hair.
His pure black eyes glowed with silver light when he saw the two of them, as if he had been waiting for them for a long time.
"Don't panic...don't we have the roots of the Grimace Tree...just apply a little more!"
Zheng Ming took out the Grimace tree root and handed it to Su Wen generously.
Seeing the tree root in Zheng Ming's hand, the fog ghost that was originally calmly suspended on the road suddenly surged, made a buzzing sound, and more than doubled its body. It swooped towards the two people's position and flew away.
come over!
"Run!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Su Wen shouted, turned around and ran away!
"Ah? Oh!"
Zheng Ming's reaction was obviously a step too slow. Su Wen ran several meters before he realized what he was doing and turned around to follow him.
He was still puzzled and asked: "We have something to restrain it, why do we run away!"
Su Wen's face turned dark.
It is true that the roots of the Grimace Tree can restrain the Fog Ghost, but!
Can such a few tree roots be effective against such a confused ghost?
Talking about toxicity regardless of dose is just a hoax!
Didn’t you realize that after seeing the ghost-faced tree root, the fog ghost not only didn’t flinch, but actually took the initiative to attack!
The fog ghost was sure that such a few tree roots would have no effect on it, so it boldly pursued it.
If you don't have any judgment at all, your death here will be in vain!
"I don't believe it!"
Seeing that Su Wen didn't answer, Zheng Ming pulled out a few tree roots, rubbed them vigorously in his hands, and used extraordinary strength to force out the sap into water droplets, and then threw it back.
The sap fell on the fog ghost, making a "sizzling" sound. White smoke emitted from the area where the sap was spilled, and even turned into black blocks and fell to the ground.
But to the huge fog ghost, this damage was nothing at all. Instead, it further angered it. Its speed suddenly doubled, making a buzzing sound, and suddenly caught up behind Zheng Ming, opening its big hollow mouth.
, trying to swallow Zheng Ming in one gulp.
"Ouch...this thing is really interesting!"
When death was imminent, Zheng Ming was still not afraid, only feeling thrilling.
After all, he is a Sequence Three transcendent, so he naturally has secret techniques for self-defense.
"wall!"
Following Zheng Ming's loud roar, a wall of earth suddenly rose up behind him, blocking the fog ghost.
"Well……"
The fog ghost swallowed the earth wall into the black mist in one gulp, but it let out a low roar, and with a buzz, the earth spurted out from its mouth, and chased towards the two of them again.
"Wall! Wall! Wall!"
Zheng Ming was in a state of excitement and seemed to be having a bit of fun. He shouted out and summoned earth walls from the ground.
Looking back and seeing this scene, Su Wen almost dropped his jaw in shock.
This guy... is so strong?
The fog ghost smashed two earthen walls, but its body also shattered in the collision and turned into a loose black mist.
In the end, the fog ghost also realized the power of the earth wall, and directly divided into several groups, bypassed the earth wall and gathered into one group, and continued to pursue the two people. However, by this time, the two people had already distanced themselves from the fog ghost.
"Huh... I finally didn't catch up... Oops!"
Just when Su Wen breathed a sigh of relief, he saw that the white area instantly turned into pitch black.
Familiar strange faces emerged from the black stone walls, mocking him mercilessly.
