Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Chapter 341: The Old Man and the Tree

“What are you spacing out for? We won’t catch up if you keep standing there!” Lin Yunguo urged.

“Oh right, right, right, let’s go, Grandpa. I’ll support you.”

Lin Xiuyuan also snapped to his senses and immediately went to support Lin Yunguo’s arm to move forward.

“No need for your help, I can walk on my own.”

Lin Yunguo placed his hands behind his back and walked towards the direction of the vine.

“The Lin family’s Grandpa is getting stronger and stronger,”

...

Nie Qing said cheerfully, it seemed that this space indeed had significant benefits for the human body.

Su Jin and Lu Hao also hurried to follow along. They had initially thought that the mountain path would be difficult for the two elderly people to navigate, but at this moment, Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying were walking effortlessly. Before long, they were walking hand in hand…

Lin Xiuyuan and Su Jin quietly walked behind, watching their grandparents chatting and pointing at the scenery around them hand in hand, feeling they had indeed underestimated the old couple’s strength before.

Today, Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying were dressed in the assault jackets Su Jin had bought for them, complete with comfortable sneakers, making the pair look quite spirited and robust.

The robust fabric of the jackets was tough enough to ensure they wouldn’t be scratched by the leaves around them.

As the group followed the trail marked by the vines on the ground, they heard several zombie howls not far ahead.

Su Jin looked towards Mao Qiqi, who simply shook her head, indicating she also didn’t know why her map had not shown this; perhaps her map was malfunctioning again?

Lu Hao always walked at the forefront, fearful of any sudden dangers that might appear.

The group reached a dense forest only to finally see the source of the zombie howls, which turned out to be two elderly zombies.

They knew these were elderly zombies because of the striking white hair on their heads, and they had already merged with two large trees behind them!

The mutant animals that had been dragged here by the vines were placed under those zombies, making it seem as if the trees were feeding the zombies?

The two trees had many tree-like tendrils hanging from their crowns, many of which burrowed into the soil beneath and continued to root there, while the lower halves of those two zombies had merged into the robust trunk behind.

Sensing the scent of live humans, the zombie cries became louder, though they were only left with their upper bodies extending forward from the trunk, one of the zombies even lacking arms.

Could it be that these zombies were being consumed by the mutated trees?

Just then, as if sensing someone approaching their territory, the tree’s tendrils that had burrowed into the soil slowly emerged and transformed into wooden spikes targeting the people!

Nie Qing snorted coldly, and with a swipe of his Wind Blade, he neatly severed those tendrils!

“What kind of demon tree is this!” Lin Yunguo exclaimed.

It bore hideous humanoid figures and trunks that could attack people!

“Grandpa, these are mutated trees, and those two must be zombies,”

Lin Xiuyuan explained from the side, always following Su Jin’s instructions to protect the two elders, though it seemed his grandparents weren’t the slightest bit frightened…

Sensing the danger, the slender tendrils of the mutated trees gradually gathered together to form a wall-like structure, standing in front of the two zombies.

The group was completely baffled, both feeding and protecting, what was up with these trees?

After ensuring the zombies were protected, everyone heard a rustling sound as the mutated trees consolidated the leaves from their crowns into throwing knives aiming at the group!

Boom!

A burst of flames transformed into a firewall, and not a single leaf passed through Lu Hao’s wall of fire. _{freewёbnoνel.com}

“What a worthless tree, just burn it down,” Lin Xiuyuan said.

Lu Hao agreed, his Fireball gradually taking shape, ready to be hurled in the direction of the two zombies!
