I just want to be a middleman

Chapter 271 What is hanging on the tree

"Tell me the whole story." Qian Duoduo spoke in a neither loud nor soft voice, for fear of scaring these quail-like children.

Several days ago, Xiaoxi's mother discovered something wrong in another area. People in each area would contact each other after a period of time. They were unable to get through last time, and they were unable to get through to one area this time.

So everyone decided to go to that area to see what was going on. We were all in the same boat, and it was a precarious situation. If we just ignored it, we would be in trouble.

It was very likely that they would be the next in line, so they agreed to go to that place to check.

What on earth is going on?

Before Xiaoxi's mother left, she told Xiaoxi that if things were simple, she would come back earlier, and if things were difficult, she would come back later, so he didn't need to worry.

But before setting off, Xiaoxi had a feeling that something was wrong. He told his mother about it, but his mother still wanted to go. He knew that the spirit beasts could only huddle together for warmth if something happened somewhere else.

Then something will happen here soon.

His mother's intuition was better than his, and he couldn't stop her. He could only help her take care of and lead the other little friends.

It had been several days since the agreed time. Xiaoxi knew that if she went to look for him, he would never come back. Then she remembered the people on the spirit boat.

I asked for it with a hopeful hope, but I didn't expect that he would actually agree.

"So the situation ahead is unknown?" Qian Duoduo heard what they said and realized that even the adults didn't know how to go there and didn't even know the basic situation.

"Hmm..." Xiaoxi knew that it was a bit unreasonable, but there was no other way at the moment, so he could only try his luck.

"It doesn't matter. If you can't win, you can run away. As long as you have the green mountains, you will have firewood to burn." Qian Duoduo looked at Xiaoxi with tears in her eyes, and she couldn't stop crying.

"Thank you, sister." The children looked at the people on the spirit boat. She was the easiest to approach, while the others seemed difficult to talk to.

Bai Yan who was reading in the house, Yi Shu who was following Qian Duoduo, and Chang Kun who was sitting casually, none of the three looked easy to mess with, only Qian Duoduo seemed easy to talk to.

The rose in Qian Duoduo’s hand: What about me?

So the children all crowded around Qian Duoduo and listened to her stories. These little stories were mixed with many truths. Xiaoxi felt that there was an ulterior motive, but she couldn't put it into words.

It only took three or four hours to get there. It was still light outside when they arrived. Qian Duoduo sent out his spiritual sense to check if there was anything unusual. The children also gathered around the spirit boat to look around.

"Sister Duoduo, this way." Xiaoxi pointed in a direction. He was still in contact with his mother, which meant that his mother could still be saved and her condition was not irreversible.

"............" Qian Duoduo just used his spiritual sense, but before he got there, Xiaoxi knew it as soon as he arrived. It seems that it was still useful.

Blood relationship is really magical. It feels so close even though it is so far away.

"You stay on the spirit boat and don't get off." Qian Duoduo asked Chang Kun to hide the spirit boat, and then let Yi Shu drive it slowly over.

"Uh-huh."

There is no evil energy or negative energy, no unrighteous energy at all. It may just be a matter of fighting for territory. Qian Duoduo is analyzing the combat environment.

Looking at the huge trees in front, Xiaoxi pulled Qian Duoduo's clothes and gestured for her to look. There were a lot of white things hanging on the trees.

There are people inside... not... spirit beasts...

Spiritual beasts transformed into human form can be seen everywhere.

This tree is absorbing their vitality.

Qian Duoduo took out a willow wood sword. This was not a decent magic after all, but using this sword could help them get used to each other. This was an opportunity.

"I'll go first, and then you guys if I can't beat you." Qian Duoduo was eager to try with a sword in his hand, and then said to Yi Shu and Chang Kun.

"Okay, go ahead."

"Young Master..." Compared with Chang Kun, Yi Shu seemed a little worried. He was a little traumatized by what happened to him last time by the old tree man.

"You can't follow her and protect her forever. Since she has other paths to choose, you have to let her grow up." Chang Kun waited until Qian Duoduo had left before speaking to Yi Shu.

The two of them usually just had some simple conversations, and this was the first time Chang Kun had said something like this to Yi Shu.

"If you really want to help her, then watch her moves and reactions carefully, and analyze them for her after it's over. That's what you should do."

"I understand." After Yi Shu agreed, she also stood on the edge of the spirit boat and looked at the young master below.

The wind made her robe whistle, and she started attacking as soon as she entered the stage without saying a word or caring about the reason for the whole thing.

Just go for it, this is the only tree you can hit here, and you can get to the point in a shorter time.

You know, the villain died because he talked too much, and she didn't even know whether she was a villain.

A powerful move came over with overwhelming momentum, but was blocked by the wall of trees. After reacting, they immediately surrounded Qian Duoduo.

Strength can defeat skill. Qian Duoduo doesn't follow the rules and just hacks away, carving a path for himself.

"You ignorant child, get out of here now!!" Several vines rushed towards her, all of them were tree roots, and the attack looked very fierce.

"I haven't used fire for a long time. Alas, the old slogan is deeply rooted in my heart. I don't like playing with fire in the woods." Qian Duoduo condensed a fireball the size of a basketball.

There was a trace of Red Boy's real fire in it. Qian Duoduo did not move, but waited for the tree roots to come over.

"Bang..." Tree roots came from all directions, and Qian Duoduo set the fire around himself.

The flames cheered, finally seeing the light of day!

"It smells so good!" Qian Duoduo pretended to enjoy the scent of the tree roots being burnt by the flames, and then watched the tree roots retreat.

The fire cannot be extinguished until all the roots of the tree are burned.

The opponent was also smart. He cut off the tree roots directly and stopped the loss in time.

A man came out from the opposite side. He was a feminine-looking man, middle-aged in appearance. He should be very old, at least older than him.

If the anger in the eyes could kill, the flames in his eyes should be able to burn Qian Duoduo to death.

"Why do you want to ruin my good thing!" Behind the man, countless vines like branches, which looked very soft, surrounded him.

"......"

"What good can come of this?" Qian Duoduo took out the Sword of Life and Death, spun around, and threw the cocoon-like thing hanging on the tree onto the spirit boat.

"!!!"

"Thief!!" The man took out a sword and chopped at Qian Duoduo. He had just cut off the tree roots himself, which had wasted hundreds of years of his practice.

Today, I must keep her life here!

"I took it openly. It was my trophy." If Qian Duoduo used the Sword of Life and Death, he would have to use that murderous sword technique.

The two men were fighting each other, and it was unclear who had the upper hand.
