In this post-apocalyptic world, I unexpectedly became a star galaxy master.

Chapter 116 The Banyan Tree That Has Become a Spirit

That night, I finally encountered some living people.

The woman was delighted, especially since there was a chance to enjoy a delicious hot pot.

"Aman, keep your voice down, what if they're raiders?" Little C said sternly in a low voice, but a faint smile appeared on her face.

The five of them had just survived a fierce battle with a mutated giant eagle and barely escaped. However, everyone was seriously injured, especially their leader, Li Shuo, who was still unconscious and it was uncertain whether he would make it through the night.

Oman not only didn't think about saving people first, but only about eating. He really has no team spirit.

This team is really hard to manage!

She shouldn't have accepted this mission just to earn a few more points.

"Uh, I'm hungry too. I'm so tired and hungry. I haven't eaten meat for days."

"Me too, but let's think of a way to save Li Shuo first. We can't do this mission without him." Seeing that Xiao C's expression was not good, the man quickly changed the subject.

Seeing that someone had finally mentioned the seriously injured Li Shuo, Xiao C composed herself, her gaze sweeping over everyone, and solemnly said:

"You two have worked hard taking care of Li Shuo along the way. I know you're all tired and hungry after a whole night of running around, but in order for things to proceed smoothly from here on out, I hope you will all follow my instructions."

"Well, it's all up to you."

"it is good."

"no problem."

The three of them expressed their opinions. Little C was the leader of this mission, so they should have listened to her. If Li Shuo hadn't ignored their advice, they wouldn't have suffered this disaster and dragged everyone else down with them.

"Okay, then you guys help Li Shuo to that big banyan tree and wait a moment while I go over to negotiate." After saying that, Xiao C walked towards Hong Tang and the others' RV.

The others walked towards the banyan tree.

"Ah, ah, help me—"

"The banyan tree has become a spirit; it's eating people!"

"Little C, come quick and save us! Li Shuo is dying!"

"Let go! Damn banyan tree spirit, I'll fight you to the death!"

A loud scream pierced the sky, unusually clear and eerie in the quiet night.

Before even reaching the RV, C suddenly turned around and saw his four companions hanging from the branches of a large banyan tree.

Their bodies were either pierced by roots hanging in the air or had branches wrapped around their flesh, and drops of liquid dripped onto the ground. Although it was hard to see clearly, Little C knew it was their blood.

Oh no, what on earth is going on?!

It was my own fault that I made everyone wait under the banyan tree; it was my own fault that I harmed everyone.

Little C was filled with shock and fear. She realized that the banyan tree must be a mutated plant.

Mutant plants are not very common yet, and they haven't encountered any along the way, so she forgot about them; it was her carelessness.

Little C ran back as fast as she could, determined to rescue her companion. But after only a few steps, she heard laughter coming from the RV behind her. Wiping away her tears, she turned back.

"Oh, did you hear that scream? It was so pitiful and terrifying," Feng Ming said casually, burping as he wiped his greasy lips with a tissue.

In reality, his eyes gleamed, his ears were perked up, and he looked like he was waiting to see a good show.

Hu Shuai had finished eating. He scratched his head and, while clearing the table, chimed in, "It sounds like someone nearby is calling for help. Judging from the voices, there are both men and women."

Hongtang also put down her chopsticks, speechless as she looked at the cheeky Fengming and the simple-minded Hu Shuai, shaking her head repeatedly.

These two men are polar opposites in terms of personality. Feng Ming appears to be a refined scoundrel, a gentleman yet dangerous, but is essentially arrogant and cheeky, yet also flexible and pragmatic. In short, his personality is extremely complex and changeable.

Therefore, Hongtang began to have doubts about Fengming's claim that he was the boss of a high-tech company.

What a great boss!

But he did indeed bring out a lot of high-tech products, and in his spare time these past few days, he was tinkering with those impressive-looking instruments and equipment. It was only at this moment that Hongtang realized he was a normal person.

Hu Shuai, on the other hand, is very simple: a forty-year-old butcher with a meat stall in the farmers' market, making a living by selling meat. He appears honest and simple on the surface, and is indeed a very conscientious person.

So even though Hu Shuai almost died when he fell into Feng Ming's hands, he doesn't harbor much resentment towards him now. This is because Feng Ming gave him the ability to survive in the apocalypse—a special power.

Perhaps it's because human joys and sorrows are not the same.

Hongtang then turned to look at Xue Li. This guy has been really into eating fruit lately, and right now he's holding a fruit platter, eating strawberries and cherries one after another.

In this apocalyptic world, Hongtang wasn't stingy in sharing such precious fruit with everyone. It might cause some trouble, but she didn't care. Anyway, she had plenty of these things; no one could take them from her.

Hu Shuai doesn't like to eat fruit, and Feng Ming wants to eat some but can't compete with Xue Li, so now only Xue Li is eating it.

After swallowing the last strawberry, Xue Li said, "I just used my mental power to sense that there are five superhumans approaching in the distance, but there are no zombies or mutated plants or animals."

Hongtang nodded; her mental energy had detected the same thing.

"Boss, an injured woman has run over here. She looks like she's here for help," Hu Shuai said, poking his head in from outside the windproof fence as he carried cleaned pots and pans.

Feng Ming also consciously tidied up the tables and chairs, but still teased in a cheeky way, "Our boss is kind and beautiful, she wouldn't even dare to step on an ant, she'll definitely step in to save people." After saying that, he even winked at Xue Li.

Xue Li stared in disgust, nearly vomiting up all the good food she had just eaten. "Is this lunatic sick? Weren't you talking to the boss? Why are you giving me those flirty looks?"

No, even if he's talking to me, he can't flirt with me. He's a man, and he likes women.

What should I do? My hands are itching again, I really want to smash his mouth!

Xue Li squeezed his eyes shut tightly, his knuckles turning white.

No, I can't fight back. This guy is definitely provoking me on purpose. We'll be living together for a long time to come, so I have to stay calm and not let that despicable guy get away with it.

Xue Li suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and bright. He completely ignored Feng Ming's piercing gaze and spoke in his usual icy tone:

"Boss, I just sensed that four people were hanging on that banyan tree. I suspect that the banyan tree might be a mutated plant that ambushed those people."

Hongtang frowned. The reason she went to see that banyan tree was because she felt that it was strange that it was growing there, but she couldn't quite put her finger on why.

It only now comes to my attention that there are no other trees around it; it stands all alone. But judging from its height and girth, it could easily be considered a "forest by itself."

But I've used my mental power to sense it; it's a "dead tree," without any signs of life. How could it possibly evade my mental detection? Besides, neither Tengteng nor Sisi sensed anything.

This is interesting.
