Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 176 Bathing the Cat
After walking for so long in the dead darkness, when they suddenly saw a bright light not far away, everyone was refreshed and couldn't help but quicken their pace.

Ma Zhi quietly tugged at the corner of Lin Rantong's clothes: "Captain, something is wrong."

Lin Rantong squinted at the two round little lanterns that flickered from time to time, nodded silently, and slowed down.

Yan Qingwen has been walking at the front of the team, feeling that the team is moving faster, he raised his hand: "Everyone, be careful, don't act rashly if the situation is unknown."

The team got closer and closer to the lantern-like light, only to realize that the light turned out to be a very strange dark green, like two clusters of ghostly fire, which made people feel frightened.

"What is this?" A person walking in front asked curiously, and looked at it by the light of the torch.

Because the light was not bright, he couldn't see clearly beside him, so he felt that the pair of small lanterns were very bright and exuded a cool light.Around the small lantern, there is a hazy piece of golden yellow, but it is not a whole piece, but a net shape.

This person was even more curious, and approached a little closer, unknowingly he had already reached the front of the line. He suddenly felt the two small lanterns go out suddenly, and when he felt that his eyes were dark and out of focus, he saw the two lanterns light up again. Then, he was horrified to find a huge body rushing towards him.

That huge monster moved extremely fast, and it wasn't until he was less than one meter away from him that he yelled in despair: "Snake!"

Then, there was a more miserable scream, and then there was a thud, and people heard it, and naturally knew that it was the sound of a snake swallowing the unlucky man just now, their faces turned pale, and their stomachs churned.

"Everyone back up, mutants are in front, supernatural beings are behind, get ready for battle." Yan Qingwen yelled, and threw a bowl-sized water polo at the big snake in his hand.

The big snake had just swallowed a person, and was reminiscing about that wonderful feeling, when it was hit by a water polo on the high bulge of its abdomen, there was a dent there, and then it bounced back.

The big snake writhed in pain, spat out the letter to Yan Qingwen and hissed. Only then did people barely see that it was a big python thicker than a bucket and tens of meters long.

Its whole body is black with a golden pattern on it. At this time, the lower body is coiled into a large spread, and the snake on the upper part stands tall. Its eyes glow like lanterns, and it is shaking its head and looking at Yan Qingwen provocatively.

"Sister-in-law, this snake is too scary." Liu Yu said with a pale face.

It wasn't just her, most of the girls in the team covered their mouths and retreated back and forth. Only Qiao Feifei, Ge Lier, and Yang Luoxi, who always seemed quiet and cute, stood still, waiting Yan Qingwen's instructions.

Lin Rantong and the others were already at the back of the team, and as soon as the girls retreated, many of them retreated to them.

Li Nuan's face was as pale as paper, and she looked at Lin Rantong and the others and smiled weakly.

"Hey, little beauty Li Nuan, aren't you very courageous?" Tao Haiyang couldn't help asking.

Li Nuan stared, and said with lingering fear: "If you are brave, you can't be afraid. Damn, I am most afraid of snakes." After finishing speaking, he ran behind Tao Haiyang again. Tao Haiyang shrugged dumbfoundedly, but moved forward took a step.

Although Lin Rantong seemed to be calm on the face at this time, he was actually numb looking at the cold and sticky boa constrictor.

She is also a woman, although she is not timid, but snakes are born to be a little afraid of things. It is really disgusting that she can't help but feel her scalp go numb.

Even so, Lin Rantong did not retreat, but stood in front of his team. He had to know that he still had the strength to fight, which was much better than Xia Yongjia's inability to use their abilities.

Yan Qingwen quickly glanced at the combat power watch, and was shocked by the display on it, which actually showed rank 4-5.

In other words, the mutants will have to die for this boa constrictor. Thinking of this, Yan Qingwen hurriedly said: "Everyone back off, Ji Shanfeng comes out."

After the people got the order, they hurriedly withdrew to the back. They also knew the information from the combat power watch. Since Yan Qingwen didn't speak, the well-disciplined people barely supported. In fact, their legs had already weakened. At this time Hearing Yan Qingwen's words, everyone was grateful to him: he is indeed a master who has stepped out of us, and rushed to the front in the face of danger, and did not let his subordinates be cannon fodder.

Ji Shanfeng, who was named, came out with a calm expression, stood next to Yan Qingwen, and confronted the boa constrictor together.

Because the boa constrictor had just swallowed a very fresh and tender prey, it was in a good mood, and was planning to swim home for a nap, but unexpectedly, something hit it, and it hurt quite a bit, so it couldn't help staring at that person angrily. .

That person was followed by a group of weak little things, Big Snake shook his head in disdain, to see what else was going on, and unexpectedly, another person came out not long after.

The big snake's lantern-like eyes flickered twice. It has already reached the fourth level, and since entering the fourth level, it has acquired a lot of wisdom and senses. At this moment, it obviously feels a little bit threatened.

With a sound of "hiccup", the big snake actually burped loudly.

Thinking that the prey in his stomach had not been digested and his stomach was full, the big snake made a decisive decision.

While everyone was stunned, the upper body of the boa constrictor quickly moved towards Yan Qingwen. When Yan Qingwen and Ji Shanfeng retreated in a hurry, it retracted its upper body without stopping, and swam away very quickly.

This, this is a feint!Looking at the big snake that was still bulging in the middle, swimming quickly in the grass, and the grass was overwhelmed, everyone thought strangely at the same time.

Yan Qingwen didn't get up to chase after him. Seeing the big snake quickly disappear into the darkness, he turned around slowly, and said in a bitter voice, "Who was that brother just now?"

This question is about the unlucky guy who was swallowed by the big snake.

"Minister Yan, that's Wu Liang from our [-]th team." The captain of the [-]th team replied, thinking in his heart that it's unlucky.

Yan Qingwen obviously had no impression of this Wu Liang, so he heard Lan Yu whispering from the side: "Minister, Wu Liang is the one who knocked over someone else's water glass not long ago."

It turned out to be him, Yan Qingwen connected his face with his name, sighed inwardly that the world is impermanent, and then ordered: "Everyone take a break and continue to set off in half an hour."

This time, no one chatted and joked anymore, the supernatural beings hurried to practice, and the mutants didn't want to say anything, so they closed their eyes and rested.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and following Yan Qingwen's order, everyone stood up in spite of their reluctance, and continued to walk towards the front of the boundless darkness.

There is no way, although everyone knows that there are many dangers ahead, but they have to bite the bullet and go down.If you keep going, you may find a way out. If you don't go on, you will die of starvation and thirst sooner or later.

When people have no choice, it is the only choice to face the difficulties and sink the boat.

Only this time, people walked more cautiously, and no one ran to the front recklessly. For a while, Yan Qingwen was seen walking at the front of the team conspicuously, outshining others...

Lin Rantong secretly sighed, Yan Qingwen is actually quite a good person, he has the kind of personal heroism complex that many men have, and sometimes, there is a kind of innocence that makes people laugh and cry.Then I thought, what do I think about others, everyone has their own way of living, as long as his decision does not bring danger to everyone.

A group of people walked silently, Yan Qingwen looked at the torches in Xiao Wang's hands secretly worried, there are still nine torches, if this continues, when the torches are used up, everyone will fall into the boundless darkness, by then ——

Yan Qingwen didn't dare to think deeply, so he quickened his pace.

In Fenglin Garden, An Ran stood in the grass in front of the door and looked at Chu Zhuzhu.

"Aunt Chu, what are you doing? Are you bathing it?" An Ran stretched out her chubby fingers and pointed at the roses mixed in the grass.

At this time, the rose had grown a lot, and a few flowers were blooming, swaying in the wind, very beautiful.

Looking at the blooming roses, Chu Zhuzhu felt a sense of accomplishment spontaneously, took the shower in her hand, and smiled at An Ran: "Yes, after giving it a bath, it will become healthy and grow up quickly. big."

An Ran nodded thoughtfully: "It turns out that taking more baths will improve your health, so grow up quickly."

Chu Zhuzhu looked at the little man in front of her, afraid that the little man would have some thoughts, and it would be a big trouble if she ran to take a bath by herself, so she hurriedly said: "But when I was young, I couldn't take a bath by myself, I need someone to help, you see Auntie, aren't you just helping Rose take a bath?"

An Ran showed a clear expression, nodded and said: "I understand, Aunt Chu, I'm going home, otherwise Aunt Tang will look for me."

Seeing An Ran stretch out her chubby hand to wave to her, Chu Zhuzhu hurriedly waved her chubby paw at An Ran, and turned back to the house with the shower in hand.

Seeing that Chu Zhuzhu was gone, An Ran quickly walked to a corner with short legs, and pulled back the grass leaves that had been covered before, revealing a little furry thing.

An Ran squatted down, picked up the little thing with both hands, and finally saw that it was a cat, and it was a white cat, but at this time its body was gray and yellow, and some hairs were covered with dark red blood. They stick together, and some places have bald hair, revealing pink and tender skin.If anyone saw it at this time, they would conclude that it was a stray cat in an extremely miserable state.

A trace of confusion flashed across An Ran's face, such a kitten, why is it so heavy?
Thinking of this, An Ran returned home with the cat in his hands. He put the cat on the floor, looked left and right, found a washbasin, ran to the water tank, and scooped it up on tiptoe. Scoop out the water and pour it into the basin.

Afterwards, he picked up the cat and went to the water basin. Thinking of Chu Zhuzhu's words, he put the cat in the water basin, and just like his mother did when he was bathing him, he used his chubby hands to brush the cat's hair and said to himself He said to himself: "Little cat, don't move around, An Ran has bathed you, and you will be fine."

"Of course, what are you doing?" Tang Tang came to the living room just after practicing, and looked at this scene dumbfounded.
