Chapter 182 Holy Land
Hundreds of banyan trees emerged from the water one after another;
The banyan tree's branches are twisted and intertwined, with countless branches merging into each other;
The huge treetops block each other, and from a distance, it looks like a green continent;
"Is this your holy land?" Xiao Kui was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth when she saw the huge banyan tree in the distance.
"It's spectacular, isn't it?" said the leader, Cattail, with a proud look on his face.
Xiao Kui behind him nodded frantically;
"Although I have been here many times, every time I come here, I am always overwhelmed by the magnificence of the holy land;" another Cattail said with emotion;
"How many of you seniors often go in and out of the Holy Land?" Pea Shooter Fengqi asked tentatively;
As mentioned by Cattail Little Sunflower, every adult Cattail will follow the group to migrate to the Holy Land after finding its own companion water lily. After staying in the Holy Land for a while, it will return to its own habitat.
And since these Cattails have been able to stay in the holy land, it means that they are not ordinary Cattails;
"We are part of the Holy Land Guards, responsible for protecting the safety of the Holy Land. We are different from other cattails," one of the cattails said carelessly.
This information was obviously not classified intelligence, so the cattail did not deliberately hide it from the pea shooter Fengqi;
"Guard? Is there anything that will attack here?" Xiao Kui beside her asked curiously;
There is defense only when there is attack, which means that the holy land may be attacked, so the guard position is set up;
"The holy land is related to the rise and fall of our Cattail tribe, and there are often lawless elements who try to invade the holy land;" another Cattail explained;
The first Typha that the Peashooter Fengqi and other plant units encountered said that he was driven out of the holy land because of the zombie attack;
Now the Cattail Guards did not directly say that the invaders were zombies, but rather that some criminals were trying to attack the holy land;
This means that there are other things besides zombies that are also destroying the holy land;
All enemies that attack the holy land, including zombies, are uniformly called outlaws by the guardians of the holy land, the cattails;
Under the leadership of the Holy Land Guards, Peashooter led a line of plant units and entered the interior of Banyan Island along a relatively narrow waterway;
These tall banyan trees intersect and branch off from each other;
The gaps between the banyan trees became the only passage from the outside to the interior of Banyan Island;
"You guys are the only plant unit that has entered our holy land besides our cattails." The leading cattail looked at the tangled waterweed that was carrying the peashooter with a curious look on his face;
Although Cattail was very curious about the tangled waterweed, he never asked Fengqi the Peashooter about it.
Although the entangled waterweed looks strange, its characteristics as a plant unit are still very obvious;
Since it is a normal plant unit, the Cattail Guards don't bother to ask about it;
"I hope I won't cause any trouble to you." The Pea Shooter Fengqi deliberately pulled the vine in his hand, and the other end of the vine was tied to the zombie Tushan's body;
"No, you have helped us a lot and are our best friends." The leading Cattail Guard glanced at the zombie Tushan and said with a smile;
The further you go along the Banyan Tree Waterway, the denser the Banyan trees become.
The layers of tree canopies almost blocked out the sun;
From time to time, cattails driving water lilies would come out from other forks around;
The cattails first looked at the peashooter Fengqi and other unfamiliar plant units with a wary look, but then they saw other cattail guards leading the way, and the vigilance on their faces eased;
The cattails gathered more and more around, and the narrow banyan tree waterway was even congested for a moment;
"If these cattails are the guards of the holy land, then the level of security in this holy land is quite high." The Pea Shooter looked at the cattails around him in surprise;
"Where are we now? Is it time for dinner?" Zombie Tushan climbed up from behind Xiangpu Xiaoli with sleepy eyes;
Zombie Tushan slept until he woke up naturally, and no matter how Xiangpu Xiaoli fiddled with him, he just wouldn't wake up;
"You can still sleep when you are about to die." The leading Cattail Guard looked at the zombie Tushan with a sneer on his face;
"Dead?" Zombie Tushan looked confused;
Didn't we agree to just act it out? Why is it really happening now?
"I am about to die?" Fengqi, the pea shooter, couldn't help but frown. This didn't seem to be the same as planned.
"By the way, what are you going to do with this zombie in your holy land?" Pea Shooter Fengqi asked casually;
"You'll know it soon." The cattail guard gave the pea shooter Fengqi a meaningful smile;
The cattail little li standing by looked at the zombie Tushan behind him with worry;
It was the first time for Xiang Pu Xiao Li to come to the Holy Land. He didn't know much about the Holy Land and didn't know what the Holy Land wanted a zombie for.
Xiaoli feels that the zombie Tushan is different from other zombies. Xiaoli doesn't want him to die in the holy land.
"We're here;" the leading Cattail Guard pointed ahead;
In front of us is an unusually tall banyan tree, roughly estimated to be no less than several dozen meters high;
The big banyan tree had many arms-thick branches hanging from its trunk;
These branches are firmly rooted in the water, and after absorbing enough nutrients, new banyan trees emerge from the bottom of the water.
Because this banyan tree is too overbearing, it almost occupies all resources within a radius of hundreds of square meters;
Therefore, all the other banyan trees around hid far away. Some other banyan trees that were unfortunate enough to grow within the range of this big banyan tree also pulled their roots out of the soil early and fled far away.
Although these banyan trees are not intelligent creatures, they do have a certain ability to migrate;
Right below the big banyan tree, several dwarf banyan trees that had grown out of it twisted and merged with each other, their crowns gathered together, and eventually formed an open space of more than ten square meters;
As time goes by, this clearing consisting of banyan tree canopies has evolved into a large piece of land that resembles a mixture of soil and tree canopies;
The surface of the open space was covered with a thick layer of moss. In the center of the open space, there stood a stone tablet more than three feet high.
The stone tablet was about a foot wide, and was densely engraved with some strange symbols;
Every cattail that passed by the clearing would look at the stone tablet above with a fiery expression;
"There was a battle here not long ago." The Pea Shooter Fengqi stared at the surrounding waters with a serious face;
Roadblocks, barrels and other common protective gear used by zombies floated over the surrounding waters;
"Just a few days ago, a group of zombies tried to attack our holy land, but we repelled them," said the leading Cattail Guard proudly.
"Zombies can actually come here directly. Is the defense of your holy land so loose?" Pea Shooter Fengqi picked up a relatively intact iron bucket from the water.
"The area we are in now is not a holy place. This is the only place that can be considered a holy place for our Cattail tribe;"
The leading Cattail Guard pointed seriously at the open space in front of him and the stone tablet on the open space;
