Chapter 54 Separated By A Wall, Heaven And Hell
After Gu Qinghan finished speaking, he quietly waited for Chen Yuting's reply.
To be honest, Gu Qinghan did not insist that Chen Yuting agree to his request.
This job sounds easy, but it puts all your life and safety in Gu Qinghan's hands.
If Gu Qinghan slacked off or made a mistake in judgment, she might be injured.
Even death is not impossible.
At this time, Chen Yuting still had fear that had not dissipated on her face. She looked at Gu Qinghan, then at the tree wall over there, and took a step back.
Gu Qinghan didn't say anything, but sighed slightly in his heart.
Chen Yuting's voice was trembling and she asked weakly:
"Can I refuse? Will you still take me with you if I refuse?"
"Okay, and I'll still take you out."
Gu Qinghan gave the answer directly, but he was already thinking of other ways to attract those tree roots.
He thought that the mutated cat's body might also serve as bait.
But the mutated cat corpse was too big of a target, and Gu Qinghan didn't know if it would attract more tree roots.
After all, the tree man guard's blood loss just now was definitely not caused by a piece of tree root.
But what he didn't expect was that Chen Yuting's voice interrupted his thoughts:
"Okay, let me try."
Gu Qinghan raised his head in surprise and looked at Chen Yuting, who looked a little pale.
To be honest, even if the other party doesn't agree, Gu Qinghan will treat her as before.
He can take risks and dare to gamble, but he will not force others to do the same.
Chen Yuting's career has initially helped him, and he will not give up such a partner.
However, if the other person is not the same type of person as you, then it is limited to partners.
"You are not afraid?"
Gu Qinghan glanced at her, especially when he saw her trembling hands, he almost laughed.
It's not a mockery, but Chen Yuting is a little cute at this time.
"I'm afraid," Chen Yuting's voice was still trembling, "but I want to give it a try, otherwise I will only be an equipment manufacturing machine for you."
Gu Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and then said in a funny tone:
"Don't force yourself, try it first."
Chen Yuting hummed, and then slowly moved towards the tree wall with Gu Qinghan's expression of laughter on her face.
Fifteen meters, thirteen meters, eleven meters...
When Chen Yuting was about ten meters away from the tree wall, a section of tree root that was obviously much thinner slowly poked its head out from the gap below the tree wall.
It’s the mutated ancient tree root from before!
Chen Yuting subconsciously wanted to retreat, but she clenched her fists and stopped.
She took a deep breath and took another half step forward.
The mutated tree root was like a silent python, slowly stretching out from inside, and then quietly moving towards Chen Yuting.
The speed of the mutated tree roots suddenly accelerated, but just when it wrapped around Chen Yuting, it was cut off by Gu Qinghan's skeleton.
"Wait, let me take a break, wait for me for half a minute."
Chen Yuting was only dragged less than half a meter this time, but she ran back to Qinghan and squatted on the ground, sucking in the air fiercely.
Gu Qinghan did not rush her. In fact, he began to appreciate Chen Yuting.
The reason why I dared to take risks was actually because I was forced to do so.
When I first learned that I wanted to live alone, I felt that my whole life had lost its meaning.
He also thought about ending his young life, but he was unwilling to do so.
Then, he gradually began to force himself to do many things that he had not dared to do before.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, and Gu Qinghan couldn't agree more.
When you take that first step that is most difficult to accept, everything that follows will actually be much simpler than you imagined.
However, such a step requires great courage.
Chen Yuting rested for more than a minute before standing up from the ground.
She turned around and gave Gu Qinghan a look, and then walked that way again.
This time, Gu Qinghan clearly saw that her steps were much faster and firmer.
The second one, the third one...the tenth one!
It took nearly half an hour before there were no more mutant tree roots popping up in this area.
"Am I brave?"
Chen Yuting smiled and raised her eyebrows at Gu Qinghan, completely unable to see the fear she had just now.
Gu Qinghan gave a thumbs up sign seriously, and then let his skeletons attack frantically towards the tree wall.
This time, the originally tough tree wall was like foam, quickly shattered into pieces under the axe.
Within ten minutes, Gu Qinghan saw the iron fence behind.
However, the scene inside the tree wall also caused Gu Qinghan and Gu Qinghan's expressions to change dramatically.
I saw many corpses inside the thick tree wall.
Some are human, and some are unknown creatures.
But these corpses all have one characteristic, that is, they are extremely shriveled, as if all flesh and blood has been sucked dry.
"How disgusting! This thing is completely using us as nutrients to keep us in captivity!"
Chen Yuting looked ugly, but she followed Gu Qinghan closely.
The skeleton in front quickly broke through the iron fence, opening a path to the outside world for Gu Qinghan.
The two of them rushed out, only to find that the ground outside was densely packed with mummies!
Only separated by a wall of trees, the worlds on both sides are as distinct as heaven and hell!
Looking back, the hole opened by Gu Qinghan was still slowly closing.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a lot of uncomfortable breath approaching quickly.
Without saying a word, he pulled Chen Yuting to leave.
But there were too many mummies outside, and Chen Yuting couldn't walk with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Gu Qinghan didn't hesitate, picked up Chen Yuting from the waist, and ran away.
The touch effect of the dryad increases the movement speed in any terrain!
After running more than twenty meters with the skeletons, he felt the aura behind him stop pursuing.
Putting down Chen Yuting, Gu Qinghan looked back, and his pupils suddenly shook violently.
I saw that the tree wall that was calm just now had countless tree roots drilled out.
Under the silvery moonlight, those tree roots looked like dancing snakes.
They are angry, angrily unleashing their dissatisfaction on the cowards who escape from their territory.
However, Gu Qinghan smiled, and then walked away with Chen Yuting.
He escaped.
He didn't know what the fate of the others in the school would be, and he didn't want to know.
At least, I survived.
And just ten minutes after Gu Qinghan left the school, in a square in District A, a huge tree that required at least a dozen people to surround it shook its leaves.
Several professionals who were picking up fruits under the tree were startled, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they found that there was no danger.
"You are so cowardly, I'm so scared of you."
A boy patted his companion, took a bite of the fruit he picked up in his arms and laughed.
They arrived here half an hour ago and found that a lot of fruits had fallen under this ancient tree.
They were all people who had been hungry for a long time, and they ran out to look for food when they had no choice.
These fruits showed no attributes. Someone tried to take a bite and found that they were unexpectedly delicious.
The most important thing is that there are no zombies, mutated creatures, and no other humans around here.
Compared to other places, this place is heaven!
The boy who was laughed at was a little embarrassed, and immediately picked up a piece of fruit and ate it.
At the same time, he also looked at the towering tree next to him.
"They said this tree had mutated. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect it to be true and that it wouldn't attack us."
Another girl whose stomach was a little bloated after eating also looked over and said vaguely:
"What can a tree do if it mutates? Can it still eat people?
But these fruits are so delicious, they taste like eating meat. "
Several people nodded one after another, picking up fruits from the ground and stuffing them into their mouths.
However, it didn't take long for these people to fall softly to the ground, and the fruits in their hands spilled all over the ground.
Near the ancient tree, several small tree roots came out, and then slowly dragged these unconscious people into the soil.
The ground returned to its previous appearance, leaving no trace of blood or battle, and was as calm as a pure land.
However, some branches of the ancient tree started to move automatically without wind again.
It seems that it found that in the distance that it could not see clearly, a little mouse escaped.
