Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Fleeing All the Way

In the rainforest, there were quite a few species of trees with adventitious roots, such as palm and bramble, due to the dense foliage, plants had evolved to compete for sunlight.

Adventitious roots allowed plants to move according to sunlight, although the distance they could move was minute, it was enough for them to outcompete other species.

Unexpectedly, this Mosquito-eating Plant also had adventitious roots, and even more, they could move swiftly in response to food sources.

In a way, wasn’t this also a terrifying type of plant? If they developed sentience, wouldn’t that be formidable???

Even so, controlling them bore value.

Thus, Bai Junjun selected what she thought to be the smartest among the many Mosquito-eating Plants.

"How can you tell it’s smart?" Li Wenli couldn’t quite understand.

Bai Junjun pointed at the Mosquito-eating Plant with its dense eighteen sepals and said, "Isn’t growing so many branches so it can snatch more food smart enough?"

"..." Li Wenli.

Just like that, Bai Junjun forcefully connected with the smartest Mosquito-eating Plant and used her Special Ability to forcibly include it in the team.

With the addition of the Mosquito-eating Plant, the troubles with mosquitoes along the way surely vanished, as the mosquitoes were instantly sucked into the gaping maws as soon as they approached.

All was at peace.

At that time, the three children were all stunned, initially very afraid of this entity, uncertain if it was an animal or a plant, but after learning it was a friend and not a foe, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So they began to pay attention to this new companion, whether intentionally or not.

Its roots, like spinning wheels, struggled furiously to keep up with the group’s pace. To roll its roots, the Mosquito-eating Plant’s leaves, stems, and sepals constantly dripped and twisted, creating a festive wobble.

Although the sight was strange and bizarre, the group no longer had the time to question whether it conformed to common sense.

Li Wenli led the way, seemingly tireless, leaving no blade of grass in his wake.

However, he drank water so fast that as soon as his water bottle was empty, he would toss it back, and the big sister would immediately refill it from nowhere and throw it back to him.

As the young ones at the rear, they were well aware of their position, closely following Li Wenli’s pace, causing no trouble and asking no superfluous questions.

Even so, along the way, they still managed to alarm quite a few big creatures lurking deep in the jungle.

Like a giant snake hidden in the trees that suddenly lunged down with its massive jaws agape as they approached, nearly suffocating Xiao Shan with the putrid breath it expelled.

Before Li Wenli could act, Bai Junjun lashed out directly with her Vine Whip.

The giant snake, suffering extreme pain, grew even more furious.

Li Wenli, disregarding it, simply led the children onward at a run, leaving Bai Junjun behind to unleash her Special Ability without hesitation, summoning all the surrounding vines to tightly ensnare the giant snake.

The snake, already adept at constricting others, now found itself bound by vines and unable to move, struggling violently in frustration.

But Bai Junjun didn’t give it a chance to breathe, tightening the vines until the giant snake’s bones were twisted and broken, leaving it limp and unable to move.

Only after the giant snake thumped to the ground did Bai Junjun turn and continue to catch up with the group.

In this way, Li Wenli took charge of clearing the path while Bai Junjun covered the rear. The two cooperated seamlessly, managing to carve a bloody path through the humid, hot, and peril-filled jungle.

As for the direction they were heading, Bai Junjun wasn’t worried in the slightest.

Li Wenli could sense the presence of the Fire Spirit, so the path he chose was most certainly the correct one.

What puzzled her was that there had been a violent volcanic eruption in the depths of the jungle the night before. This part of the jungle should have become scorched earth.
