Chapter 1175 Dilemma (Two Chapters in One)

The vines on the tree kept twisting, and Lin Li clearly noticed that the concentration of spiritual energy around was rapidly increasing.

The concentration of spiritual energy in the area affected by this spiritual plant was already very high. As countless vines twisted, the spiritual energy in the distance quickly gathered in the current area.

If ordinary practitioners practiced in such a place, it could be said that they would get twice the result with half the effort.

However, such a place was only encountered by Lin Li by chance. Others would probably encounter unexpected events under the attack of strange beasts not long after entering the Hengduan Mountains, let alone come here.

"Human?"

A spiritual power came from the big tree, and a murmur sounded in Lin Li's mind.

"This spiritual plant can actually use spiritual power?"

Under Lin Li's surprised gaze, the leaves of the big tree began to tremble, and the weak spiritual power quickly grew stronger, and clear words continued to sound in Lin Li's mind.

"You are so brave to come here alone."

Lin Li looked at the spiritual plant in front of him that seemed to have just woken up, and used his mental power to respond, "You suddenly spoke up, is there something?"

"..." The tree was silent for a while, and then said, "I do have something to trouble you, I wonder if you are willing to help me."

As expected by Lin Li, the other party suddenly spoke up, and must have something to ask for.

"I have something else to do, I don't have time to help you." Lin Li replied.

He also had to hurry to Baiyun Mountain to find Xuanling grass, and he didn't have extra time to help others for the time being.

"It doesn't matter, you can help me after you finish the things at hand." The tree said.

Then, in order to prevent Lin Li from not coming to him later, it promised, "I won't let you help for nothing. After the matter is done, I will give you something very useful to you as a reward."

"What is it?" Lin Li's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he asked curiously.

"..." The tree was silent again, and then he kept it a secret, "You will know when the time comes."

Lin Li curled his lips when he heard it, and complained about the other party's cunningness in his heart.

Just as he was about to leave, the tree called him again.

"Wait a minute."

"What else? I'm in a hurry. If you have something to say, just say it all at once." Lin Li said.

It wasn't that he was impatient, because he had set a time when he first dived into the water, and now it was overtime, so he had to leave quickly.

"This area of ​​water is extremely wide. If you leave now, you may not be able to find me when you come back to find me." The tree said.

"Uh..." Lin Li was speechless when he heard it. What the other party said was indeed very reasonable.

He had no way to locate this place now. There was no reference outside. After finishing his work, he came to find the other party, which was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Pah."

The branches of the tree suddenly shook several times, and a palm-sized green leaf fell off and quickly floated towards Lin Li.

"What is this?" Lin Li looked at the leaf floating in front of him in confusion.

The tree explained, "You can roughly sense my location by holding this leaf.

When you finish the things at hand, you can find me with this leaf."

"I see." After listening to the other party's explanation, Lin Li nodded and reached out to grab the leaf.

The moment he touched the leaf, a strange feeling came to him.

At this moment, Lin Li could indeed sense the location of the tree with the strange feeling.

"This should be one of its abilities! It's really magical..."

Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then he thought about it, and the leaf in his hand disappeared instantly.

"???" The tree suddenly saw the leaf in Lin Li's hand disappear, and realized that he had lost contact with the leaf, and was very surprised.

"I'm leaving." Lin Li still had important things to do now. After receiving the leaf, he didn't say anything nonsense, said hello, and swam quickly to the surface of the water.

Not long after, the human figure disappeared. Under the dark water, the tree muttered to himself, "I have been trapped here for so long, and finally there is a turnaround. I hope everything goes well for him."

The voice disappeared, and the awakened tree fell into a deep sleep again, and the scene became extremely quiet.

…………

"Splash."

A huge splash of water splashed on the calm water surface, and a figure jumped out of the water.

Lin Li quickly took off his diving equipment and stopped at a height of 100 meters above the water surface.

Although he did not get any valuable treasures when he dived into the water to search for treasure this time, it was not a wasted trip to encounter that strange spiritual plant.

"What kind of spiritual plant is that big tree?"

Lin Li was very curious, and he took out a spiritual plant illustration book.

Then, he flew towards the direction of Baiyun Mountain while flipping through the spiritual plant illustration book in his hand.

Unknowingly, half an hour had passed. Lin Li flipped through several spiritual plant illustration books in his hand, but he did not find the spiritual plant corresponding to the big tree.

"The several spiritual plant illustrations I have don't record the information of that spiritual plant. It seems that the spiritual plant illustrations I bought still have too little content."

Lin Li didn't find the information of the big tree under the water, and he was a little disappointed.

But this matter is not a big deal, so let's put it aside for now.

When I collect a few more spiritual plant illustrations in the future, I should be able to know its situation.

Lin Li put the spiritual plant aside, put away the illustrations in his hand, and then observed the environment in front of him.

He has been moving forward all the way during this period, and flew more than 100 kilometers away.

At this moment, it is close to noon. After flying for a whole morning, he still hasn't seen land.

"Gurgle..."

The stomach growled. Lin Li had been on the road all morning. Now it was time for lunch, so it was inevitable that he was hungry.

"There's not even a place to rest. It's really uncomfortable..."

Lin Li complained in his heart, and then took out a vacuum-packed chicken leg.

He tore open the package and ate the chicken leg for lunch. As for the rush, eating lunch while rushing didn't affect it much.

"Woo..."

A strange sound suddenly came from the front. Lin Li, who had just taken a few bites of the chicken leg, frowned.

A huge tornado raised huge waves, and the strong winds intertwined, and the sound of the wind made people feel terrified.

The tornado approached Lin Li at a very fast speed. Seeing this, Lin Li decisively chose to change the flight route.

Ten minutes later, the two sides crossed each other at a distance of several kilometers.

Lin Li turned his head and looked at the tornado in the distance, exclaiming.

"There are tornadoes in this weather, it's worthy of the spirit world."

"Boom."

As soon as the voice fell, the tornado that was going away suddenly exploded. Lin Li, who saw this scene, was stunned with surprise.

"What's going on?"

"Why did it suddenly explode?"

Lin Li was very confused. Such a huge tornado was fine a second ago, but it suddenly exploded at this moment. He couldn't figure out what caused it.

There are countless strange things in the spirit world. If you want to figure out the reason for every thing, you won't live a good life.

Lin Li retracted his gaze and continued to fly forward. When his figure disappeared in the sky, the place where the tornado exploded suddenly surged.

A wet figure emerged from the water, its body covered with brown scales. When it floated on the water, it was illuminated by the sun, and the scales on its body shone with light.

"Roar..."

The strange beast seemed to be dozing off, and the snoring sound continued.

Not long after, a whirlwind appeared around the body of the strange beast.

As time passed, the whirlwind continued to grow and eventually formed a tornado.

When the tornado formed, the sleeping beast was awakened by the sound of the wind from the tornado.

It glanced at the tornado with great disdain, and then dived into the water.

…………

The sun was about to set, and the bell rang in the quiet campus.

Soon, the campus became noisy, and students with schoolbags on their backs jumped out of the classroom.

Parents who were looking forward to it at the school gate picked up their children and left one after another.

Xia Qing stood under a tree on the side of the road and saw Zhou Tongtong running from a distance with a schoolbag on her back. She reached out and took out a bag of biscuits from her pocket.

"Mom."

"You must be hungry. Eat some biscuits to fill your stomach first..."

Zhou Tongtong took the biscuits with a smile, unpacked them, and ate them with relish.

The mother and daughter walked across the street. On the way, Xia Qing asked, "Did something like yesterday happen again in school today?"

"What happened?" Zhou Tongtong, who was eating cookies, didn't respond.

Xia Qing said, "It's about the investigator coming to the school to investigate."

Parents have asked about this many times in the group, and the current answer is that there is no problem.

However, out of concern for their children, parents are still worried.

Many people will ask similar questions when they pick up their children.

"The investigator uncle didn't come to school today." Zhou Tongtong replied.

Xia Qing nodded when she heard it. Since the investigator didn't come to the school to investigate today, the incident yesterday should be in the past.

Of course, Xia Qing doesn't know that a thief sneaked into the school last night, and most parents don't know either.

Because the thief didn't steal anything, it was not a big deal, and the teachers in the school didn't publicize it.

The students didn't know, and the parents didn't know, so this matter should be covered up.

Xia Qing led her daughter to the other side of the street. As soon as she handed the helmet to her daughter, the phone in her pocket rang.

"Hello?"

"Okay, I'll go over now. Wait for me."

Zhou Tongtong looked at Xia Qing curiously. After the other party answered the phone, she asked, "Mom, do you want to go to the store?"

"Yes." Xia Qing said with a smile, reaching out to touch her daughter's head.

The decoration of the store encountered some problems, and the construction master needed Xia Qing to make a decision on the spot.

The mother and daughter got on the electric car and disappeared at the end of the street after a while.

…………

In the teacher's office, Su Yue was packing things on the table.

"Dinglingling..."

The phone on the table rang. She picked up the phone to check. The caller ID was not Lin Li, but an old classmate who hadn't contacted for a few days.

"Su Yue, are you off work?" Wang Ling asked with a smile while sitting at the cash register.

"I'm off work and I'm getting ready to go home." Su Yue responded with a smile.

"Why go home? Come to my store."

"Is the store busy today? Do you need my help?"

"The store is not busy. I asked you to come to my store because I want to wait for me to get off work, so that we can find a place to eat together."

"Are you going to treat me?"

"Yes! Are you coming?"

"Since you are treating me, how can I refuse?" Su Yue replied with a smile.

The two chatted briefly for a few words, and after hanging up the phone, Wang Jiao said, "Do you have an appointment tonight?"

Su Yue nodded, "An old classmate of mine wants to have dinner with me."

A few minutes later, Su Yue left the classroom office with her bag.

There were not many students on campus at this moment. There were some students who stayed in school on the road. Seeing Su Yue's enthusiastic greetings, she responded one by one.

In the parking shed, Su Yue put her things away, put on her helmet and started the electric bike. After leaving the school, she drove quickly towards the flower shop.

Because it was the rush hour, there were many vehicles on the road.

In order to avoid traffic accidents, Su Yue slowed down the speed of the car as much as possible.

Passing by the gem identification shop, you can see that there are many customers in the store.

Yesterday, a thief broke into the store and stole things. Not many people knew about it, so it did not affect the business of the store.

The store manager called the police, and the security guard arrived and investigated. The result was regrettable.

The thief who broke into the store was very skilled and did not leave any clues to indicate his identity. It was very difficult to track down the thief.

Su Yue glanced at the gem identification shop, and did not think much when passing by, and continued to keep the speed to find his old classmates.

After more than ten minutes, a flower shop on the roadside came into view.

Wang Ling, who had repeatedly failed in starting a business, now successfully survived the flower shop she opened, which made her quite proud.

However, Wang Ling did not forget that Su Yue had a large part of the credit for the smooth survival of the flower shop she opened.

In the quiet flower shop, Wang Ling put her hands on the counter, her left hand supporting her cheek, and her right hand fingers sliding the mobile phone screen on the table.

There was a sound at the door, and a slender and beautiful figure pushed the door and entered the flower shop.

Wang Ling raised her head when she heard the voice and saw her friend coming. She immediately stood up and greeted, "You are here?"

Su Yue nodded, looking at the somewhat deserted flower shop, her red lips slightly opened, "Why is there no customer in the store?"

Wang Ling walked out of the cashier counter, took a paper cup to pour water for Su Yue, and explained, "There are many customers buying flowers in the morning, but not many people in the afternoon..."

Su Yue sat down on a chair in the flower shop and took the water cup handed over by the other party.

She took a sip of water, put the cup on the table, and asked where to eat tonight.

"Go here." Wang Ling came to the cashier, leaned over to pick up a flyer from the cashier, and came to Su Yue.

Su Yue took the flyer and browsed it carefully. This is a flyer distributed by a restaurant located in the suburbs, focusing on an original ecology.

"This place is a bit remote."

"Yes, I searched it online. Although the place is a bit remote, the food is delicious.

Anyway, we have plenty of time in the evening, so we can try it."

Su Yue thought about it seriously and felt that she could try it. If the taste is really good, she can find a time to call Lin Li to eat there after he finishes his work.
