C201 Anthropophagus

Seeing the anxious and angry flush on Chu Xiaoxiao's face, Faang Cheng was both helpless and embarrassed as he pulled her wildly dancing arm. He quickly took off the half-sleeved T-shirt on her body and flung it to the side, then pulled Chu Xiaoxiao into her embrace with her bare hands.    

    

"What are you doing …"    

    

was still struggling, but was firmly held in her arms by the big hands of Faang Cheng. After struggling for a while, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt warm in her embrace, like a huge stove, warm and comfortable. She no longer struggled, and instead hugged Faang Cheng tightly by the waist, her soft body pressing against Faang Cheng's chest, leaning against it, rubbing it against it. Not moving was the best way to survive!    

    

An unknown amount of time passed by, and waves after waves of bone-piercing coldness caused Faang Cheng to wake up from his simple and honest sleep. He only felt that his body was emanating a kind of empty and powerless feeling, that when he had just fallen asleep, he had always been wrapping himself and Chu Xiaoxiao with spirit energy. At this moment, the spirit energy in his body was already severely depleted, and the Field-yellow Stone s on his wrist and the spirit energy in the jade pendant that was hanging around his neck had already been completely used up!    

    

Faang Cheng let out a helpless sigh, and then looked down at himself in his embrace, only to suddenly discover that Chu Xiaoxiao was not in his embrace, his heart skipped a beat, and she anxiously looked around, because the scarce spirit energy in his surroundings was not as sharp as before, and she was only able to vaguely see what was in front of him after adapting for a long time. The first thing that entered his vision was Wan Anming, who was lying on the ground and wrapped up using Faang Cheng's t-shirt and Chu Xiaoxiao's jacket.    

    

When Faang Cheng realized what Chu Xiaoxiao wanted to do, he stood up quickly and chased after her while shouting.    

    

"Xiaoxiao, don't go, that fruit can't be eaten!"    

    

Maybe because Chu Xiaoxiao was a cop, or maybe because she was really hungry, she actually climbed up the branches from the tree trunk. When Faang Cheng had caught up with the roots, she was already halfway through the tree trunk, and was about to get the fruits of the tree, which were shining with blue light.    

    

"Xiaoxiao, Chu Xiaoxiao, get down here!"    

    

Faang Cheng was truly anxious, no one knew why the fruit would emit light, and if there really was a problem with it, he wouldn't even be able to use his spirit energy, then would he be able to watch on helplessly as something happens to her?    

    

"Since we're going to die anyway, let me try and see if I can eat this. If something really happens after I finish eating, don't eat it. If I finish eating and I'm fine, then we can live on these fruits for a few more days!"    

    

Faang Cheng stopped at the top of the tree, looking down at Faang Cheng who was below his feet. His small pale face revealed a trace of inexplicable determination, Faang Cheng understood that in this kind of environment, people were not usually defeated by the limits of their bodies, but their mental defenses were the first to collapse. Chu Xiaoxiao felt that he would never be able to leave this place, which was why she was so resolute at this moment.    

    

"Do you think this is a joke? It's a good thing you're a famous cop, and you're admitting defeat just like that? He was betting his life on it? In any case, you have to think this through. If you don't cherish him, then it's over. You crawl, and I won't care about you! If you eat that fruit, you will be poisoned and your entire body will rot, fester, bleed and so on.    

    

Chu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to childishly provoke her, but she did not think that her words would take effect. Chu Xiaoxiao stopped halfway, and seriously thought about what Faang Cheng had said with a trace of fear on his face, Yeah, life is only this one time, he's still so young, he has no boyfriend, no marriage, no children, if he really dies just like that, he's even so ugly … It was a pity! Therefore, Chu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, and said to Faang Cheng who was beneath the tree:    

    

"Alright then, I'll listen to you this once, I won't eat it …"    

    

But just as Chu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Faang Cheng heard a creaking sound, as if something was breaking. He raised his head to look at the direction of the sound, and saw that the location where Chu Xiaoxiao's tree trunk was at seemed to be unable to bear Chu Xiaoxiao's weight due to the moist corrosion, and the entire tree trunk split apart horizontally, as if it was made of cloth being torn apart. Chu Xiaoxiao instantly dropped into the hole in the tree that had been corroded to pieces long ago, and her heart fiercely sank, as she fell from such a high place, and was about to break even if she did not die.    

    

"Xiaoxiao, Chu Xiaoxiao..."    

    

There was no sound, no sound at all, not even the muffled sound that Chu Xiaoxiao would make when she landed on the tree!    

    

After waiting for a while, Faang Cheng realized that there was still no movement inside the cave, so he anxiously looked around, wanting to see if there were any tools that could cut off the roots of the big tree. Finally, he found a triangular rock, the corner of the triangle was extremely sharp, as though it could be used as an axe, so he continued to absorb the small amount of spirit energy inside the big tree while throwing the stone in his hand towards the big tree.    

    

"Chu Xiaoxiao, you have to hold on. I can save you!"    

    

Finally, the gigantic tree that looked like it had been hollowed out fell down just like that. Faang Cheng suddenly felt that the inside of the stone room had become dark, he turned his head to look at the tree that had fallen down, and was surprised to find that all the fruits that were flashing with blue light had disappeared, exactly because of this, the entire stone room became dark in an instant!    

    

Without time to think, Faang Cheng pushed the huge tree trunk to the side with all his might and then looked at the bottom of the tree. However, he did not find Chu Xiaoxiao inside, he only saw pitch black! He finally understood why there was no response when Chu Xiaoxiao fell in. It was because she fell into the cave that looked like a black hole, but the interior of the cave was so dark that he couldn't see anything, no one was calling for help, no sound could be heard, and his own spirit energy was so thin, he couldn't even feel a single movement inside the cave. Just what was inside, and Chu Xiaoxiao fell in … What was going on?    

    

Just when Faang Cheng was worrying about Chu Xiaoxiao, he suddenly heard a kind of sound like a broom sweeping fallen leaves, as though it was coming from the tree that had fallen. He raised his head and squinted his eyes, but to his horror, he found that the blue light spots that had just disappeared had appeared again, only this time it was even stranger, they were actually moving, and there were more and more blue dots, extending towards his position excitedly.    

    

"That is …" "What?"    

    

Before Faang Cheng could finish his sentence, blue dots of light had already crawled onto his body. He suddenly realised that those were bugs, a large swath of bugs, he suddenly understood, those were fruits that shone blue light on the tree just now, they were bugs, a type of bug that could emit blue light!
