1723: C1723 Old Tree Root

C1723 Old Tree Root

The outside world is always full of yearning, especially for little pudding.

He had never seen a colorful world, but had been in this cage ever since he was born.

He had once dreamed of leaving this place, but... In the end, he could not even share this dream with others.

But now, Shi Dali had come.

"That's right. Let's go today."

Without any hesitation, Shi Dali nodded at Lil Pea Ding.

Hence, the little pudding was a little stunned.

"Leaving today... isn't it a little too rushed?"

"Are you leaving or not?"

Without turning his head, Shi Dali continued to walk forward, but his voice was heard.

Following that, Lil Pea Ding jumped up.

"Let's go. We can leave now! I'm your big brother, you have to bring me along."

At this moment, Lil Pea Ding's eyes lit up.

"Alright, alright, let's go and mine first. I'll definitely take you with me."

He was afraid that this little guy would be too happy and cause some trouble, so Shi Dali did not continue to play with him.

At this moment, the two of them entered the hall yesterday. Then, they saw that the crowd in front of them was staring at them.

This scene surprised Shi Dali.

After arriving here yesterday, everything was very calm. It seemed that he had only had some interaction with Lil Pea Ding. How could such a scene appear in front of him?

Lil Pea Ding's eyes turned serious as well. Without saying a word, she stood in front of Shi Dali.

"What are you guys doing? Let me tell you... He is my brother. I know Old Tree Root. You all know who Old Tree Root is. I advise you not to play with fire."

"Don't say that. These words coming out of Little Bean Ding's mouth are really quite imposing.

Even Shi Dali, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but sigh. This little guy... was really good at scaring people.

"Don't talk about these useless things. Keke... Kid, you obtained a very large ore yesterday, right? Show it to me."

As a result, an old man who looked like a withered tree bark followed behind them. His eyes were fixed on Lil Pea Ding and Shi Dali. He was like a vicious dog.

When Lil Pea Ding heard this, a trace of panic flashed across his eyes.

He did not expect this group of people to come for Starlight Ore!

Yesterday, after he obtained the ore, he hid it immediately. But now, it seemed that his actions were still a little slow. Someone had noticed it in the end.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

However, after that, he had already regained his calm. Lil Pea Ding continued.

At this time, he would definitely not admit anything.

And after saying this, he blocked in front of Shi Dali again.

Although it was just a very subtle movement, it could be seen that Lil Pea Ding still wanted to protect Shi Dali. Furthermore, he could already feel that the current situation was a little dangerous.

"Little thing, stop pretending. I didn't get the chance yesterday. I saw it very clearly. ... Such a large ore is in your hands!"

The withered tree bark continued to speak, and its eyes became more and more vicious. It also took a step forward under its feet.

With this action, many prisoners followed suit.

In such a place, those who could live until now basically did not have anything good.

Even though they didn't see the starlight ore that the withered tree skin spoke of, they still chose to believe it. As the saying goes, one would rather kill a thousand wrongly than let one go. This was the truth.

Once that ore truly existed, that kind of value would truly be difficult to imagine.

"Hurry up and hand over the thing. Otherwise, we won't be polite."

"That's right. Hand over the food. I like eating children the most."

"Are the ores in your hands or not?"

...

Then, a group of prisoners began to threaten them. It was as if they would come over in the next moment and tear Lil Pea Ding and Shi Dali into pieces.

Taking a deep breath, Lil Pea Ding was still calm enough.

"Like I said, there are no ores! Furthermore, I really know Old Tree Root. If Old Tree Root knows that you guys are threatening me, you guys will all be in trouble!"

As a child, facing such danger, The mutant named Old Tree Root was his only reliance.

However, just as his voice faded, a deep voice sounded from behind the prisoners.

"Is that so?"

With just these two words, the crowd dispersed in two directions and an old man walked out.

This old man was not very tall, he was even a little short. Coupled with his hunched posture, he looked like a sorcerer who had walked out of the western demonic world.

Of course, the most terrifying thing was still his head. The back of his head was protruding like a piece of rotten wood, making one feel uncomfortable just by looking at it.

Shi Dali stood where he was. Even if no one introduced him, he could immediately guess the old man's true identity.

Thinking about it, this was the so-called old tree root that Lil Pea Ding mentioned.

Sure enough, when he saw this guy, Little Bean Ding's expression changed instantly. His feet were trembling slightly.

"Old... Old Tree Root?"

"It's me. Since you know me, then give the ore to me. As long as you give the ore to me, I can guarantee your safety. " Otherwise, you will know what will happen. "

The voice of the old tree root was very hard to hear. It was as if a fingernail had cut across a blackboard. It was even more so with an indescribable coldness.

At this moment, the eyes of the other prisoners flickered.

Since the old tree root had already spoken, there was no need for them to continue forcing him. All they needed to do was wait and see.

In the end, they were more curious. Just how big was the so-called ore...?

Faced with such a huge pressure, Lil Pea Ding was completely silent.0

Finally, after looking at Shi Dali with some difficulty, Lil Pea Ding turned his eyes back to the old tree root.

"I... really don't know what kind of ore there is."

When she said this, she seemed to have let out a sigh of relief.

If it wasn't for Shi Dali, he would have handed over the ore. Lil Pea Ding understood this more than anyone else when living in such an environment.

However, that ore belonged to Shi Dali. If he did this, it would be equivalent to handing over Shi Dali's things.

Of course, perhaps this method was correct!

However, Lil Pea Ding was still unwilling. He had said that he would protect Shi Dali, just like now.

If there was trouble, he would stand at the front and let Shi Dali stand at the back.

The atmosphere at the scene paused slightly just like that. Then, someone shook his head lightly and looked at Lil Pea Ding as if he was looking at a dead person.

That's right, the old tree root was definitely going to get angry.
