âGet down!! Get down! Donât move, donât make a sound!!!â\n
After roaring, Hou Ying was the first to lie down. Everyone didnât know why, but their trust in Hou Ying had deepened into their bones, so they followed him to the ground one after another.\n
Those leaves suddenly rushed towards them, covered, and surrounded them. The team was stiff, but soon they found that these leaves were very soft, like silk, and had no lethality at all!\n
Whatâs going on?!\n
All of them have this question in their minds.\n</ins>\n\nHou Ying said stiffly, âDonât move, wait for them to leave.â\n
Theyâre even more puzzled, but it was like Hou Ying predicted. After about 15 minutes, the leaves pressing on them quickly pulled away and returned among the dense foliage of the banyan tree, as if they had never left.\n
Hou Ying: âGet up, letâs leave first.â \n
The group walked away again. Hou Ying didnât let them stop until they walked for nearly half an hour. He scolded angrily, âTMD, that banyan tree is really fucking refined!â \n
âBrother Hou, what happened just now?â\n
When they gave up resistance and lay down, they really thought they were dead this time, but they didnât expect the twists and turns. Why on earth did those leaves let them go? Is it because they have shown goodwill first, so peace is precious?<sup>1</sup>\n
Hou Yingâs face was unsightly, he said, âThose leaves have no attack power at all. The reason why theyâre so powerful is that they consume our abilities and use our own abilities to attack us!â\n
âWhat do you mean?â\n
Everyone was shocked. \n
âThe leaves are so fast because they absorb Lao Erâs ability. Didnât you find that Lao Erâs ability depletes the fastest? Fuck, these two banyan trees are too wicked. No matter whether there are ability users or not, they can consume the ability attacking them and turn them into their own use. Wait, they swallow not only abilities but also wood crystals. Otherwise, they wonât be so fond of Xuanyuanâs ability, and Xuanyuan, the nature of your ability is actually the plant condensed by the wood crystal, which is essentially a part of it. The reason they escape as if running for their lives is that they are afraid of being eaten. Feel it. After the attack just now, has the wood crystal in your body been weakened?â\n</ins>\n\nLi Xuanyuanâs perception confirmed Hou Yingâs guess.\n
Qiao Daye swallowed and asked Hou Ying, âBrother Hou, how did you find out?â\n
Hou Ying was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, ââŠI saw it.â After a pause, he added, âI saw the ability energy on the leaves, fire, wind, speed, and even space cutting.â\n
Everyone is at a loss as to what this means, but Hou Yingâs next words surprised them again, âCanât you see it Lao Er?⊠I didnât notice it before, but I saw it when I touched you.â\n
âBrother Hou⊠What the heck are you talking about?â\n
Gongsun Jing felt that her brain was not enough. At this time, she no longer hated Liu Zhan, otherwise, at least one person could keep up with Brother Houâs brain circuit.\n
Hou Ying had the impulse to smoke. He called Qiao Daye and asked him to come over, put his hand on him again, and looked around on his shoulder. His eyes stayed in one direction. Then he pointed to a place and said, âThereâs a nest of bird eggs there, five in total, am I right?â\n
Qiao Daye looked over and suddenly took a cold breath, âItâs too far away⊠Brother Hou, I can only see the nest and eggs, but I canât see how many there are.â\n
Hou Ying was stunned.\n
Because he can see it very clearly.\n</ins>\n\nQiao Daye, whose visual ability also reached level 3 high-level, canât see clearly, but he saw it as clear as day, even the spots on the birdâs eggs.\n
Everyone stared at the two of them, not knowing what dumb riddles they were playing. Li Xuanyuan suddenly said, âHou Ying, you have a visual ability.â \n
Hou Ying let go and looked over.\n
He said, âI donât know. I canât see it now.â\n
He put his hand on Qiao Daye again.\n
âNow, I can see it again.â\n
Qiao Daye exclaimed, âBrother Hou! Do you have it or not! Make it clear!â\n
âThereâs a shit! I already told you, I have to touch you before I can see it! You asked me whatâs going on, then who do I ask?â\n
Hou Ying is also grumpy.\n
Li Xuanyuan stepped forward and took Hou Yingâs hand without warning. He raised his other hand, and the keel and vines appeared at his fingertips. He stared at the other man and said, âYou, try it.â\n
âXuanyuan⊠This is a big joke.â\n
âI asked you to try it!â\n
Li Xuanyuan yelled at him.\n
Hou Ying spread out his other hand and waited for a few seconds. Before heâs about to give up, green silk threads emerge from his fingertips. Hou Ying was startled and narrowly suppressed his scream. Li Xuanyuan let go of his hand and the increasingly dense green silk wrapped around his palm suddenly disappeared. Li Xuanyuan took a deep breath, turned to the others, and said, âYou guys, give Hou Ying a try.â\n
After successive tests, everyone fell into weird silence.\n</ins>\n\nThere seemed to be no surprise or excitement.\n
Untilâ\n
âAh!!! Houzi! So youâre an old fairy!<sup>2</sup> What the hell!! Youâre going to heaven!<sup>3</sup> Why donât you go to heaven!!â\n
Ji Yao erupted.\n
Hou Ying burst into laughter and roared, âNo wonder I can absorb so many crystal nuclei of different attributes, holy fuck, it turns out to be this way! MD, am I going to be invincible?!â\n
Everyone: â âŠâ\n
They finally understand why the revolutionary friendship between Brother Hou and Yaoji is unwavering.\n
Li Xuanyuan slapped Hou Ying on the back of the head, âWait until we go back and laugh again. We will now hurry down the mountain before it gets dark.â \n
Then everyone recovered from this shocking discovery and stood up one after another, âYes, yes, letâs go back first.â\n
âOh, donât tell me, then letâs scare Ah Zhan and the others. Maybe their jaws will fall off, haha.â Qiao Daye snickered.\n</ins>\n\nIt turned out that this was the sequelae of too much surprise. Their emotions were out of control as if they were drunk.\n
Hou Ying took a deep breath and said, âWait, letâs clean up this tree before we return.â\n
Everyone: ââŠâ\n
Brother Hou, are you serious?\n
Gongsun Jing was the first to remind him, âBrother Hou, even if you can borrow all of our abilities now, and your level is a little higher than us, the twin banyan trees have absorbing and rebounding abilities. Weâre like sending our abilities to them as food.â\n
Theyâre all afraid of Hou Yingâs head getting hot and doing something blindly.\n
Hou Ying exhaled. He didnât explain why he wanted to do this, instead, he said with a calm face and a little frustration, âI was reckless before. Iâm sorry. Iâm so selfish and let everyone take risks. Iâm really sorry. I regret instigating you just nowââ\n
âBrother Hou, whatâs the matter with you?â \n
âBrother Hou, donât say that. Attacking the banyan tree is a decision we all made together.â\n
âThatâs right, Brother Hou, itâs a glorious defeat. Donât take this to heart. Besides, arenât we all right now?â \n
âYes, yes, if you hadnât seen the truth, we might have used up all our energy.â\n
Hou Ying was not comforted by them. In any case, what he did just now really lost the responsibility that a captain should bear. Heâs so selfish that he made the wrong decision. Even when Ji Yao reminded him, heâs still headstrong, which resulted in a fundamental mistake. Seeing everyone being attacked by the banyan leaves and couldnât escape, yet still trying to protect him, he really regretted it until his intestines turned green.\n
The sense of crisis at that time completely made his mind sober. He felt that heâs crazy before, and actually had the kind of thought that if he could help Li Xuanyuan get the wood crystal of the banyan tree, even if he made some sacrifices, it would be worth it.\n
He noticed the most despicable thought in his heart, and at that moment felt that he had never been so ugly.\n
Until now, he couldnât figure out why he had such an insane idea at the time. Does he love Li Xuanyuan? He couldnât tell why. But he could only affirm that he likes Li Xuanyuan and wants to possess him, but this is more about his desire to conquer and his desire to have company. However, one day, he would actually use Li Xuanyuan as an excuse to indulge his selfishness and use the trust of his life and death teammates to drive them to do these things.\n</ins>\n\nHou Ying noticed that he had become strange and terrifying.\n
He finally realized his change.\n
Originally, heâs not a calm person in his bones, but in a society ruled by law, he would be a good citizen and a good young man because he has such self-control and doesnât have much ambition. But now itâs different. After the end of the world, he led the team all the way. The victories he gained made his ambition inflate and dominating others also made him excited.\n
In the end, he was blinded by power.\n
After self-analysis, Hou Ying nearly slapped himself to death.\n
What is he doing? In the beginning, he just wanted to find Wang Hehe, depend on each other, and survive in the apocalypse. Later, he had teammates and took on more responsibilities, forcing himself to grow up calmly and quickly. He thought he had a spirit of sacrifice, but he did not expect that in the end, he was just conceited.\n
He sighed. He didnât have the courage to tell everyone his true face, nor did he have the courage to look up at Li Xuanyuan, who was keen on investigating peopleâs hearts. Heâs afraid that the other party would see the despicableness of his heart, and fear that he will⊠loathe him.\n
Hou Ying took a deep breath and said, âLetâs not talk about this, I have a way to deal with twin banyans.â\n
Everyoneâs eyes lit up and stared at Hou Ying. The latter smiled, pulled Meng Hanghai to his side, and said loudly, âXiaohai is our magic weapon to win. I finally know what Xiaohaiâs ability is!â\n\n
