Just when a few of us were in despair, a lost man walked past us. His condition was even worse than ours! He didn’t shave or wash his face. Even when we called out to him, there was no response.
Li Huhu looked at him and said, "Look, isn't that the walking villain we saw before we were thrown in? Now, we have become villains too, oops!"
"That means we have entered a bonsai. Is this really the magical method used by that fruit fairy? We seem to be really living in a secret garden and can't get out!" I suddenly said in despair. He collapsed on the ground.
Deng Wanwan saw that I was in ruins, and cried even more heartbreakingly. My despair made her even more desperate.
Li Huhu also hit his head angrily and said, "What? We are all trapped in here. Can't we get out for the rest of our lives? Do we really want to live in this bonsai?"
Su Fengfeng sighed silently and said: "We won't live much longer. Didn't you listen to what the fat man who caught us said? He said that no one who comes here can leave alive. They all have to He took it and made it into feed for the demon tree. We are the four newly captured by him today. It will be a matter of time before we are made into feed."
I looked at Deng Wanwan, and a sense of self-blame surged into my heart. I stood up and said, "No, we can't sit still and wait for death. We must find a way out. We still have a lot to do! The enemies and demons are waiting. Let us understand that we still have to fulfill the master's last wish, and I still have to live for a long, long time."
Su Fengfeng said: "Yes, we can't just let it go so willingly, we must go out and complete our mission."
Although Deng Wanwan stopped crying, her eyes were still red and she asked in a crying voice: "You said you want to go out, but what can we do? Now, aren't we all trapped here by the monster's spell? There is some way nor."
Su Fengfeng had no choice but to comfort him, and then said: "Now, none of us can figure out the situation, so let's ask the people here first. They have lived here for a long time, and they must know better than us. The situation here.”
After that, we went under a big tree, and there happened to be five people meditating underneath, as if they were practicing for a certain week. However, judging from their posture, they should be doing useless work, just like a deceptive stance.
Su Fengfeng came up and asked: "Well, why are you all meditating here? This is not our real world. It is a secret garden created by the Fruit Immortal. We are all here now, do you know? "
Seeing that they didn't respond, Deng Wanwan became anxious, walked up and said angrily: "Hey, are you deaf or something? I'm talking to you, did you hear it? I'm really anxious."
Finally someone spoke. He was a man with white hair and beard, and deep wrinkles on his face. He replied unhappily: "You're new, right? Please go away. You can do whatever you want, and don't hinder us. Just meditate and practice.”
"What? Are you practicing? What kind of practice?" Deng Wanwan was confused by what they said.
Another very young boy, who looked to be about eleven or twelve years old, said: "Don't you know this when you first come here? We are cultivating immortals, and we are the disciples who are honored to be chosen by the Fruit Immortal. In order to attain Taoism and become immortals, we must Work hard to meditate and practice. Once we achieve Zhengguo and have the immortal power like the Fruit Immortal, then we can leave here, that is, become immortals. At that time, the Fruit Immortal will also reward us, and after eating it If you can achieve immortality with the human face fruit, that is the true perfection of merit. If you don’t want to practice, then please don’t disturb us and please leave.”
Li Huhu couldn't figure it out and asked: "What is the Fruit Immortal? That fat man?"
"Yes, that's the fat man! He is the demon who caught us with despicable magic and threw us into this secret garden. He ate too many human face fruits and became capable of magic. However, his body was devoured by , the bark has grown now." I said.
"Nonsense, I don't allow you to insult the Fruit Immortal like this! The Fruit Immortal, he is a great benefactor who saves us from the vulgar world and the disputed human society. So, you don't understand the greatness of the Fruit Immortal, a depressed mortal." The person who spoke this time was a man with long hair and a fair face. He had been completely brainwashed by the Fruit Immortal.
We stopped talking nonsense to them and left wisely. Li Huhu even cursed fiercely: "Damn fat man, wait until I get out and see if I don't cut you into pieces. Then, use my three-flavored fire, I will burn you into a roasted suckling pig. Now, we have to find the edge of the bonsai, break through violently, and escape!"
I shook my head and said to Li Huhu, who was still harboring illusions: "Don't be kidding, we are playing away from home here! There is no advantage at all. Our methods will not work here. Try your luck and see if you can Can’t you gather Qi into your Dantian?”
Li Huhu tried it, but it really didn't work, so he stopped trying. He could only give up and shook his head.
We could only sit slumped on the ground and start messing around. On the contrary, the group of depressed people who still believe in the Fruit Immortal are still confident and very energetic. They are still lining up neatly and doing various strange movements. To be honest, it is not as good as hip-hop dancing!
Deng Wanwan looked at these boring people and began to question herself: "Can people like them really become immortals through cultivation? Why do I always feel so unreliable! It's true."
Su Fengfeng said: "If you really want to cultivate immortality, you do need to train your physical body, but this is not how the physical body is trained. Moreover, physical training is external, and you must also train your spirit to the extreme, that is, to become strong and strong. It’s only possible.”
I interrupted them out of boredom and said, "Save your energy, we still have to find clues!"
While I was talking, a man in military uniform came over and started chatting with us. He asked, "Hey, you guys, your accents don't sound like you are from here. Are you from the north?" ?How did you come back here?"
I saw that he was a soldier, but his uniform was completely dirty, so I asked him: "Sir, who are you? You are different from those ignorant people who believe in Guoxianren. How could you do this?" What about those who came here?”
"Hey, is there any difference? No matter what the reason for coming here, they are all the same. They can't get out anyway. How did I get here? To be honest, I joined a foreign mercenary group , but our mission failed, and I was chased by others. In order to avoid being chased, I fled here, and then I was caught by the fruit fairy. I am different from those ignorant and boring people. , I don’t have any idea of becoming an immortal, I’m just a common man.” The defeated mercenary said lazily, and then he said something that shocked me.
"Don't you know? As long as some people here have a little bit of cultivation, it will be miserable! It's just those idiots who follow the Fruit Immortal who don't know, because once you have a little bit of cultivation, you will You are chosen by the Fruit Fairy. Whether you are willing or not, you will immediately be used as nourishment to feed the big fruit tree on the top of the mountain. In fact, when I was captured, I saw with my own eyes that the big fruit tree that bears the human face fruit The scene of the conversation between the tree and the Fruit Fairy. Can you believe it? A tree can actually talk." As he spoke, the deserter's face changed, revealing an extremely frightened expression.
The deserter begins to recount the horrific conversation of that day…
At that time, the Fruit Immortal had just finished watering the demon tree, and asked the demon tree: "You have produced so many human fruits, why haven't you grown the most perfect fruit? That is, the kind that makes you feel good after eating one." A fruit that can lead to immortality! But then again, do you have the ability to produce the best fruit?"
The tree said with a thick voice: "Of course I can bear the best fruits, but it's not enough now! I still need more people to provide nutrients, as long as I absorb enough If you use humans as fertilizer, you will be able to grow the fruit you dream of. At that time, you will be the first to taste the taste of the fruit of immortality."
The Fruit Immortal sounded very tempting, but he asked in frustration: "How can there be so many people providing you with nutrients? They are all ordinary people, and their flesh and blood are ordinary nutrients. No matter how much you eat, what's the point?" use?"
"How to get more people, I don't care! However, if you really want to eat the best fruit, then just do as I ask. Don't ask so many questions why, just do it. "The old tree seemed to be giving orders.
The Fruit Immortal agreed and said: "Okay, I will try my best to catch more people back. But, Divine Tree, you talk too much, and you say it so unpleasantly! I will give you some strong Nourishing, but let me use this fragment of your body that can enhance your cultivation!"
As he spoke, he took off a piece of the fragment embedded in the big tree, and said: "Now I have gained strength, which is great. I can go and arrest people with confidence and boldness, and all the people I arrested are The nourishment of the sacred tree, haha..."
At this time, the frightened deserter was discovered by the Fruit Immortal, and was naturally captured, waiting to be used as nourishment for the demon tree.
After listening to his story, I felt that my fate was also very miserable. Now the Fruit Immortal is the butcher, and we are the lambs to be slaughtered. When I came, I didn't feel a trace of Yin Ling Dan's breath. I knew without even thinking that the Yin Ling Dan fragments had been digested.
