1675 Breaking The Formation (2/2)
”I finally know why these flowers are exceptionally gorgeous, but why do they have to create such a massive array formation to support the growth of the bloody plum tree? What will it do when it matures?”
Di Fuyi shook his head. ”This is a mechanism-operated array formation, which is usually closed. The people can still visit, as long as no impediment shall arise. No one can tell any difference between it. If anyone tries to break into the formation, the bloody plum tree will be immediately triggered. Every tree in the entire plum garden will come alive, like a web. They will behave like the center bloody plum tree, catching and eating humans alive. As vast as you can see, anyone who gets trapped in the garden will barely make it out alive.”
He had not expected the existence of such a vicious array formation in the world; hence, Lan Yue was enlightened.
He then turned to give Yan Chen a look. ”Luckily you did not attack it earlier, or else we would all become their buffet.”
”The plum garden has been here for a very long time. I have not heard about anything wicked about it before.” He continued to observe the bloody plum flower.
Di Fuyi slowly explained, ”The bloody plum tree looks no different from a regular plum tree during the day. Moreover, it only started to exist in the later stage of the establishment, in the deepest part of the plum garden. Its blood-feeding behavior can only be seen at midnight. Anyone can walk past it during the day, and nothing will happen, so no one will ever notice it.”
Lan Yue finally understood.
Yan Chen was not very interested in the history of the plum garden, for it was not at all what he cared about. ”How should we break the formation?”
Di Fuyi looked at Gu Xijiu instead. ”Isn't she trying to break the formation?”
Lan Yue and Yan Chen turned their curious eyes to Gu Xijiu. She was trying to persuade the mussel to give up all of its food.
The mussel was reluctant to, but it could not go against the will of its master. Heartbroken, it passed all of its food storage to Gu Xijiu one by one.
