I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

Chapter 125 Too bad

It turned out that Gu Lan was too focused on the river and didn't notice a tentacle suddenly emerging from the ground.

The tentacle was dark and covered with spikes. It suddenly emerged from the ground and stabbed straight towards Gu Lan, as if it was going to turn Gu Lan into a skewer.

The sudden change happened in an instant, no one expected it, and everyone acted subconsciously.

Ji Yanli was closest to Gu Lan, so when he realized something was wrong, it was too late to warn her, so he could only hold Gu Lan and move away.

Xu Fengxi and Xue Hao saw the sudden change under their senior sister's feet and hurried forward.

The two of them had already released their magic swords, which moved so swiftly that they cut off the tentacles in one fell swoop.

The tentacles broke, and the monster's roar formed a sound wave that sharply stimulated everyone's ears.

Everyone had to cover their ears and endure it silently.

After the sound disappeared, several shadows flew out of the empty hunter's house.

Looking closely, they are all monsters that look neither human nor inhuman.

Some of them looked like humans, but had long tentacles on their hands. Some of them had their skin and flesh spread out and no longer had a human form, and their heads had turned into dogs. Some of them simply crawled on the ground and became monsters like small rivers.

"What's going on?" Xu Fengxi and Xue Hao quickly gathered with Ji Yanli and Gu Lan.

Ji Yanli shook his head and put Gu Lan down.

"Thank you." Gu Lan wiped her sweat. Her whole attention was on the river and she didn't pay attention to her feet.

His sight fell on the place where the tentacles had poked a large hole.

If Ji Yanli hadn't been quick-eyed and quick-handed, she would have been seriously injured.

"Why are you being polite? If I were there just now, you wouldn't stand idly by." Ji Yanli didn't care much.

Gu Lan was no longer polite, "What kind of monsters are these? Haven't your fellow apprentices who patrol the mountain noticed anything strange about this place?"

"That's right, you asked me. I've been accompanying the old man in the mountains day and night these days, and I haven't seen him for many days. How could I have known that these things would happen? If you asked me about the situation of my fellow disciples who patrol the mountains, you'd have gotten to the root of the problem. In the past, they were in groups of two, and patrolled once every five days. It's not that they didn't notice such a small change here."

"That's strange."

Gu Lan and others did not take these monsters seriously.

Among these monsters, only Xiao He remained awake, albeit intermittently.

After getting rid of these monsters, Xiaohe had fainted. Everyone walked over to her and washed her clean with a cleansing spell.

I heard the river mumbling and growling from time to time.

Several people frowned, not knowing what she was talking about, and hurriedly asked Gu Lan who was closer, "What did you say?"

Gu Lan listened attentively and heard Xiao He say: Eat, eat, eat...

......

Is this child hungry?

Gu Lan recalled the scene where Xiao He ate the mouse on the beam, and couldn't help but get goose bumps again.

"Eat. She said. Maybe she's hungry."

As he spoke, Gu Lan injected some spiritual power into Xiao He. Seeing Xiao He gradually waking up, he took out a cake from his Qiankun bag. It was a wine-fermented osmanthus cake that he bought at the street corner of the town on the way.

I put the fermented osmanthus cake on Xiaohe's nose, and Xiaohe opened his eyes completely.

Xiao He tried taking a bite, but found it tasted like wax and was so unpalatable that he spat out the cake in his mouth.

"Not delicious?" Gu Lan put the remaining cakes back into his pocket.

We can't waste food.

Xiao He didn't look at Gu Lan, his eyes were only on Ji Yanli.

Now she was much more sober and could fully recognize Ji Yanli.

Ji Yanli stepped forward and asked, "Xiaohe, what happened to you? Why did you become like this?"

It would have been better if I hadn't asked, but this question completely opened the faucet of the river.

Tears as big as beans kept rolling down. The river pursed its lips and choked while crying, "I, I, I don't know, benefactor, I went to the mountains to play and saw a fruit that smelled very good, so I took a bite, and then it became like this. The river is not a monster, the river is a human, right?"

Looking at the monster that was killed by several sword immortals, Xiao He was even more scared, "Benefactor, benefactor, please don't kill Xiao He, okay?"

"No, we won't kill you." Gu Lan touched Xiaohe's head pitifully. This time Xiaohe didn't struggle, nor was she afraid. She followed Gu Lan and pushed her scattered hair behind her head.

Xiao He rubbed Gu Lan's hand, smiled, looked up and asked Ji Yanli innocently, "My benefactor, can I still become a human?"

"OK"

Although Ji Yanli didn't know if it was possible, there must be a way.

The changes in the stream are similar to the monster that just appeared, probably because of those strange fruits.

"Xiaohe, can you take us to see those fruits?"

Xiaohe nodded obediently and led everyone to find that kind of fruit.

Not long after walking, I smelled a strange fragrance, which was extremely tempting. If ordinary people walked here, they would definitely not be able to resist the temptation if they did not have self-control.

Ji Yanli glanced at Gu Lan, and Gu Lan also glanced at Ji Yanli, both of them had solemn looks in their eyes.

This scent is obviously not normal.

"Everyone be careful." Gu Lan said.

Ji Yanli took out a few pills from his Qiankun bag.

"This is a detoxification pill, everyone take it first."

A few people took the medicine, swallowed it, and then walked a few more steps, and indeed they saw fruits all over the ground.

The fruit is bright red and the size of a fist. It grows on low bushes, swaying in the moonlight, with an enticing fruity aroma.

The aroma here is already very strong, even a little drowsy.

"That's it." Xiao He pointed at the fruits and said, now she would never be tempted by this kind of fruit again, but she still stood behind Ji Yanli with some fear.

It’s all my fault for being greedy. I ate that fruit and ended up like this!

"What kind of fruit is this?" Gu Lan squatted down and took a closer look. The shape was somewhat like a poppy. He used his internal energy to cut a cut on the surface of the fruit, and a blood-red color flowed out.

Ji Yanli had never seen it before, "Take some back and ask Master and they will know. But these fruits cannot be kept, they must all be destroyed."

Gu Lan nodded, "I don't know how many hunters around here have been tricked."

Ji Yanli had already released his magic sword, and had wiped out all the fruits along the way. "Let's go explore the area first."

After finishing all this, Xiao He suddenly pulled Ji Yanli's sleeve and said, "My benefactor, I remember now! Wang Xiaoer should not be dead yet, go and save him."

Then, Xiao He knocked his head and said in pain, "I have been in pain all over these days. It was Wang Xiaoer who took care of me every day. I suddenly became like this tonight, so I wanted to find a place to hide. Who knew that I would meet Wang Xiaoer as soon as I went out. I had to hide in the house. Wang Xiaoer ran into that thing head-on when he left the yard."

At this point, Xiao He was obviously very scared, "That thing took Wang Xiao Er away. You are sword immortals, you will definitely be able to save him."

"What it is?"

"I, I didn't see it clearly." Xiao He lowered her head in shame. She felt an extremely cold chill at that time, which was colder than the coldest days of winter. Her brain was almost frozen.

"It doesn't matter if I didn't see it clearly. Where did the monster go?"

"Still in town."
