Chapter Twenty: The Road of Change and Tree Sap

  Wu Xiaotian stared blankly at the huge gap on the overpass in front of him, standing still as the wind blew by.

  "How am I supposed to get past you?!"

  Looking at the broken arches on the high platform, speechless and asking the sky.

  The broken mouth opposite the zombie, discovered Wu Xiaotian's existence, and rushed towards Wu Xiaotian directly. However, the broken mouth on the overpass became a natural moat. Those zombies jumped down from the broken mouth without hesitation and were smashed into meat sauce.

  Thinking about how to get past, but no matter what method is used, it doesn't work. Just when I was about to return the original way, I found that within 100 meters of the road back, there is a large river called "Panlongjiang", and the second route also passes along the edge of this river.

  Although I changed routes halfway through, I managed to avoid the most dangerous places. It can be considered a good route after all.

  Arriving at the edge of the elevated road, Wu Xiaotian saw that the river had already risen and decided to jump in to change his route. He first stuffed the 54 pistol into his backpack and then threw the backpack onto the shore. Then he used a belt to tie the two knives to his body.

  Standing on the railing of the overpass, Wu Xiaotian gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and jumped down.

  He spat out the river water he had just drunk, and Wu Xiaotian gazed resentfully at the endless river, muttering "This Panlong River is still so stinky!"

  When I saw several corpses floating slowly from upstream, the nausea in my heart became even more severe, and I vomited directly.

  Wipe away the bitter water from the corner of mouth, come ashore to pick up backpack, shoulder the backpack along the riverbank towards the car sales market.

  The big trees along the river seem taller and more majestic than before.

  "Could it be that I haven't passed by the riverbank for a long time?" Looking at the willows in front of me with doubt, I saw that the main trunk, which was as thick as my thigh before, now had a diameter that required at least two people to hug together.

  Less than a kilometer's journey made Wu Xiaotian repeatedly astonished, every tree was lush and green, some big trees' branches had already drooped to the river surface, some riverbank soil could no longer bear the weight of the big trees, those trees directly lay horizontally on the river surface in the shape of the character "one", only their roots were connected to some mud, as if they would fall into the river with just a little more weight.

  Wu Xiaotian also found that on these trees, some white bones were still left behind. Wu Xiaotian did not see the dark blood and human bones still stuck between the branches of those big trees.

  Regardless of these eerie big trees, Wu Xiaotian was advancing leisurely and didn't notice that some branches behind him were approaching him.

  But at this time, Wu Xiaotian unknowingly knew that what had just happened in front of him had deeply shocked him.

  Only to see the big river along the shore some wandering zombies are approaching the trees, suddenly that tree directly stretched out branches, tied up those zombies. The tied-up zombies struggled violently, but to no avail. And what was originally still a somewhat plump body, suddenly quickly became thin, instantly turning into skin and bones.

  Staring at the scene in front of me in shock, a strange feeling slowly rose from my heart.

  Suddenly felt something wrapped around ankle, looked down and found it was the same branch that entwined the zombie!

  The Tang knife was unsheathed and hacked at it with force.

  The blade has reached its limit; the branch is broken.

  Looking at the broken branch, but out came milky white leaves!

  He suddenly turned his head and saw that the branch was still coming towards him, Wu Xiaotian quickly retreated, but the branch seemed to be staring at Wu Xiaotian and followed closely.

  The sword came out of its scabbard, and with a swing of his double blades, he cut off the branches that were attacking him. However, those branches seemed to be endless, and upon closer inspection, it was clear that every tree within a certain distance from Wu Xiao Tian had stretched out its branches towards him.

  "MD, not just humans, animals, even plants have mutated!" He cursed as he looked at the branches attacking him. His mouth was cursing non-stop, but his hands holding the twin knives didn't stop, and the milky white liquid splashed all over Wu Xiaotian's face.

  Along the cheeks, the juice slid down and slowly flowed towards Wu Xiaotian's lips. Wu Xiaotian thought it was his own blood, and when he licked it with his tongue, an extremely sweet feeling came from his tongue. It wasn't until he wiped it with his hand that he discovered it was actually the sap flowing out of the mutant tree.

  The increasingly dense branches underfoot caused the mutated trees to retreat. However, Wu Xiaotian did not stop there, jumping up and swinging his Tang knife at the thickest branch, which snapped loudly and sprayed out a large amount of milky white sap. Wu Xiaotian opened his mouth to catch the spraying sap, and a large amount of tree juice poured into his mouth.

  It felt like the juice was incredibly sweet and refreshing.

  After flowing into the abdomen, it actually transformed into strands of energy entering the lower dan Tian.

  Feeling his strength growing slowly, Wu Xiaotian was overjoyed. He picked up a branch from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, sucking on the juice that flowed out of the branch, which was sweet and accompanied by a slow heat flow, making Wu Xiaotian extremely happy. However, a sudden cramp came from his abdomen, and a bowel movement also came from his intestines.

  Ran quickly to a hidden place and pulled down pants.

  The "crackling" sound accompanied by a foul odor was relieved only after taking out the cigarette and lighting it from the backpack.

  "Mom said don't eat things randomly, it's really a warning for all ages!"

  Puffing on a cigarette, Wu Xiaotian was squatting in a hidden corner, lamenting. After solving the problem, he wanted to take out toilet paper to clean up, but after searching for half a day, he couldn't find any toilet paper, which made Wu Xiaotian curse loudly "坑爹". While rummaging through his backpack, he tried to find some paper, but everything was in vain. Until he opened the zipper of the bag, something entered Wu Xiaotian's line of sight - a bunch of 100-yuan "soft sister notes", which were also useless in the post-apocalyptic world.

  Feeling a bit sore from the sensation coming from there, it's actually quite refreshing to use "soft sister currency" to wipe my butt, but it hurts a bit when I fart.

  "MD, wiping butt still feels anxious" Just thinking of throwing away these soft coins, but then came the feeling of abdominal pain, had to squat down again and continue detoxifying.

  "Isn't it enough that I was wrong?" Wu Xiaotian was seen squatting in a corner, shouting loudly.

  The sky quickly darkened, and Wu Xiaotian, who was sitting paralyzed in the car, suddenly found that he could see things at night. The car had been parked on the riverbank all along, with the key still inserted. At the time, finding this car had made Wu Xiaotian happy for a while, because he had found a means of transportation.

  Afterwards, Wu Xiaotian slowly felt his own body and only felt that his strength had increased by a lot, about 5 times that of an ordinary person, while his speed hadn't increased much, probably around 4 times. But the biggest increase after drinking the tree sap this time was actually his physical strength and his body's flexibility. Of course, the greatest gain was his ability to see in the dark, because being able to do so was a basic ability of the main character, and now he had also acquired it, how could he not be happy?

  Then Wu Xiaotian paid great attention to the tree sap and thought about how to collect more of it.
