Chapter 250 Who has been kidnapped?
Chapter 250 Who has been kidnapped?
As the distant dawn breaks through the darkness, the silent night fades away, and the tranquil village begins to awaken.
Su Li, who had slept soundly all night, got up early for once and groggily crawled out of bed.
I got out of bed and was about to go out to wash up when I tripped over something and fell onto a pile of soft vines.
Completely stunned by the fall, Su Li grabbed the familiar vines and sat up from a pile of tender branches, staring dumbfounded at the green carpet covering the ground.
Large vines spread out, some even extending outside along the doorway.
Done! ! !
He seems to have... forgotten something important...
I hurried out of the room and ran to the small hall where we had dinner yesterday. Sure enough, I was met with five pairs of resentful eyes (wearing sunglasses).
This is really awkward...
He'd forgotten that while he might not get drunk, his drinking companion, the vines, were responsible for his drunken antics!
This isn't a problem within the sect; on their own mountain, this silly vine would get a good beating no matter who it provoked. But here…
The five people, who were collectively woken up in the middle of the night by the vines from the disco party, looked at the guilty little brat, whose long hair was a mess and who wished he could turn around and go back to his room to become a mushroom right now...
Of course, going back to the room is out of the question.
Looking at the two figures, one large and one small, wrapped up like dumplings by vines on the floor, completely covered up, one with a messy human head and the other with a slightly unkempt cat head...
She looked at Xie Yuchen with pleading eyes...
What's going on?! Who did my vines kidnap?! And why are they bringing pets along?!
Meeting Su Li's pleading gaze, Xie Yuchen coughed lightly and tried to comfort her while suppressing a smile.
"Don't worry, nothing's happened. Go and gather up the vines first, then wash up. Uncle Gui has checked on us twice already. Let's have breakfast first."
With Hua Hua's comforting words, Su Li instantly calmed down, gathered up the vines covering the ground, leaving only the two clumps in the small hall.
When he returned after washing up, breakfast was already laid out in the tidy little living room, and the two unidentified objects had disappeared.
After breakfast, the group greeted Uncle Gui, who had come with his two daughters to tidy up, and declined his offer to show them around. They then closed the courtyard gate again under the pretext of catching up on sleep.
As soon as the courtyard gate closed, Hei Xiazi, grinning from ear to ear, clung to Su Li.
"Hehehe, Little Ali~~ Confess honestly, did you secretly watch something indecent when we weren't looking~~"
A bewildered Zu Li: ? ? ? ? ?
A complete blank stare. What do you mean by "indecent"? Why would I have to secretly look at it??
Meeting Su Li's bewildered gaze, Wu Xie's expression was indescribable.
"Last night, your vines... well..."
Black Bear grabbed the embarrassed puppy's face and interrupted him.
"Your vines sneaked into our room in the middle of the night and started dancing wildly, even getting all tangled together and trying to imitate taking off your clothes... Ouch!"
When the outspoken Hei Xiazi was about to utter some inappropriate words, Zhang Qiling directly tapped him on the head to interrupt him. However, the two words that had already slipped out still made the bewildered Su Li blush bright red.
This is awkward. You can only blame the fact that old movies were really daring. He was so embarrassed when he saw that part of the movie with Wang Mengmeng that he wanted to crawl into a hole...
The vines, which had been dancing wildly in the middle of the night because their owner had drunk too much, violently grabbed two unidentified creatures that were wandering around the small building and exuding malice.
Looking at the two lumps of flesh that had been thrown into Hei Xiazi's room, their wounds had stopped bleeding but still smelled distinctly of blood.
Zuli could only feel fortunate.
Thankfully, he always used his silly vines to wrap the rice dumplings instead of using them to skewer them, otherwise, who knows if these two would still be alive today.
And also... thankfully, this guy only lingered around this area and didn't bring the whole village back for a general meeting...
Otherwise, he really would have to go back to being a recluse and growing mushrooms...
Are they alright?
"It's alright, the little fat boy gave him some medicine, he won't die."
Black Bear waved his hand dismissively. Although the sudden throwing of two bloody things into his room startled him, Black Bear was no fool. He quickly checked them over and then dragged the two out the door.
When I went outside, I saw...
Very good. Each room had a few particularly alluring vines dangling from its doorway, though Blackie's room had an unusually large number.
I was initially worried that Su Li's vines had suddenly gone berserk and hurt innocent villagers, but when I saw that figure that seemed to have no shoulders, I knew who this person was.
The group casually glanced at the little brat's sprawled sleeping posture, and after confirming that the sudden tantrum of the vines had no effect on the child, they decided against the midnight wake-up call and chatted and joked in the small hall while waiting for Su Li to wake up.
Right now, a group of five tall, muscular men (Su Li: ????) are crammed into Hei Xiazi's small room, making it look rather crowded.
Su Li untied the vines, revealing a man and a lynx that had been bound all night.
Both the man and the beast, having lost too much blood, were in a coma. Fatty Wang fed them some of his practice food, and it seemed to be working well; at least they were still alive.
Compared to the humanoid creature wrapped in a black rag and emitting a strange smell, Wu Xie and Su Li were clearly more interested in the fluffy big cat. Even Zhang Qiling moved his feet silently closer without making a sound.
This lynx must have just reached adulthood, as it is only a little over a meter long. Its muscles are strong and powerful, and the fur that is not stained with blood is smooth and glossy, showing that it has been well cared for.
It was clearly not the main target of the vines' attack yesterday. Although it had many whip marks on its body from the vines, they were nothing compared to the one next to it.
The two squatted down next to the big cat and, as was their habit, first applied a few cleaning spells to remove the congealed blood, dirt, and other impurities.
A reassuring aura lingered in Wu Xie's palm as he pressed it against the lynx's head as the lynx's body trembled slightly, as if it were about to awaken.
Long, slender fingers gently stroked the lynx's forehead, slowly caressing the short-haired big cat.
The lynx, which had been restless and seemed about to wake up, seemed to receive some kind of gentle comfort and fell into a deep sleep.
Some of the gruesome wounds showed slight signs of healing, though not very obvious, but enough to make them less painful.
The first level of the Beast Taming Technique can basically only attract beasts; whether they are benevolent or malevolent depends on your luck.
In the second level, the special abilities of the Beast Taming Technique can slightly soothe and heal injured beasts, greatly increasing their favorability towards them. This lays the foundation for the power of the contract in the third level.
