"Dare you, or don't you dare?"

Li Zhi looked at the little guy and asked with a smile. If he didn't dare, he would go down by himself. Then he would eat meat by himself and might not be able to drink the soup. If the other party had the courage to jump down with him, that wouldn't stop Li Zhi from taking the lead.

Let's 'play' with it.

Are the benefits shared? Don’t be too independent. You must know how to share, otherwise you will have no friends!

"Can't you dig it out and give me some?" The little guy looked at Li Zhi pitifully.

It's not stupid either. Life or death is uncertain if it goes down. Once it can't go down, how can it follow Li Zhi and take risks?

"What do you think?" Li Zhi looked at it with a half-smile.

Isn't it just to tease the little ones, witness life and death, and share adversities together, only then can we forge a deep friendship?

The little guy is hesitant, wanting to eat good food, but not willing to take risks. Of course, there is no such thing as having the best of both worlds.

Either just wait until there is nothing to eat, or go out together and take risks!

"Okay, I'll go down and fight with you, but you can't bully me!" The little guy finally agreed to jump down with Li Zhi to find the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus', or rather a plant.

'Thousand-year-old snow lotus tree' is not an exaggeration.

Li Zhi was so angry that he shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "I am such a big man, why should I bully you?"

Since you have chosen to go down together, let’s go, there is no need to prepare anything!

"Come on, get on my shoulders!" Li Zhi looked at the little guy's size. No matter what 'breed' he was, he was still a small man and quite lovable. He couldn't bear to let him be at the bottom!

"Here we go!"

The rabbit and cat Longba chirped, jumped onto Li Zhi's shoulders, and held on to Li Zhi's clothes tightly, as if he was afraid of falling. From the outside, he looked very nervous.

"Are you ready?" Li Zhi asked with a smile.

The little guy nodded and said, "Well, I'm ready."

"Then I jumped!"

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he jumped into the half-meter-diameter hole. Everything inside was unknown. He followed the entrance of the hole where the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus' escaped. He didn't know where he could fall, but he should be able to.

The possibility of going directly to the heart of the mountain is very high.

The butt next to the entrance of the cave is covered with ice, just like a slide. The entire entrance of the cave is not straight up and down, but has a certain slope!

The speed of falling is very fast!

About five minutes later, he fell directly out of the half-meter-diameter hole!

A colorful and huge ice cave!

The huge 'thousand-year snow lotus' was blooming in the ice cave. Li Zhi and the little guy, one person and one beast, fell directly onto the huge petals!

"Wow wow wow, it smells so good, it smells so good!" The little guy rolled a few times. After getting up, he didn't care where he was or look at the surrounding scenery. He was directly attracted by the petals of the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus'.

Get up, pounce on it and want to ‘gnaw’ it!

"Shut up!"

Li Zhi yelled softly, which frightened the little guy. He turned his head and looked at Li Zhi doubtfully, not knowing what he meant.

He took a deep breath, turned his head and looked to the side, smiled bitterly and said softly: "Look around!"

Around?

The little guy's blue and red eyes looked around. Soon, his already big eyes opened even wider!

All around, there are dense vine roots, the thick ones are about three to five meters thick, and the thin ones are about ten centimeters. The entire ice cave, in the middle of the entire mountain, is about a thousand meters wide, and is covered with these things.

In the distance, there seems to be a huge purple tree as thick as a locomotive... lotus root?

Half of it is exposed outside, and the other half grows inside the mountain!

"This, this is the rhizome of a thousand-year-old snowdrop?" the little guy said in surprise.

Li Zhi smiled bitterly and nodded. It was not a rhizome, but roots. These roots seemed to be still alive, squirming around.

Maybe no natural enemies have ever come in, or maybe because of the harsh environment in the polar ice sheets, not many creatures will pay attention to this 'thousand-year snowdrop'.

So when one person and one beast came down, the thousand-year-old snow lotus did not immediately launch an 'attack'.

Of course, people may feel that they are on their own territory and may not take Li Zhi and the little guy seriously.

"Do you think these roots of the 'thousand-year snow lotus' will attack us?" The little guy timidly moved to Li Zhi's side, jumped onto Li Zhi's shoulder, and asked nervously in a low voice.

Li Zhi tilted his head and looked at it and asked, "Do you know it is the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus'?"

"I know!" The little guy's big eyes rolled twice, and he probably understood why Li Zhi asked this.

Li Zhi rolled his eyes at it, knowing that he didn't want to tell it earlier, but he didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being.

A snowdrop that can grow in the polar regions for thousands of years cannot be justified without any means of self-protection.

Haven't you heard that there are often guardian beasts around babies, and if there is no guardian beast for a baby, it means that the baby itself is very dangerous.

This ‘Millennium Snow Lotus’ is probably the latter!

But it has already come down, and it would definitely be unreasonable to return empty-handed. Therefore, no matter whether it has any means of attack or not, it must be killed today.

Nature chooses, the weak eats the strong, there is no right or wrong!

"Do you want to eat it?" Li Zhi asked softly.

The little guy rolled his eyes and said, "I want to!"

"Then don't be stunned, let's do it, finish cleaning up early, and start eating early!" Li Zhi smiled, took an alloy sword in his hand, and slashed directly at the petals of the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus' at his feet.

You will know if there is any reaction or if you will attack! You will know if you try it!

Such a huge petal can stand upright and shrink into a half-meter-wide hole, which shows that it is very soft.

Moreover, as soon as Li Zhi jumped in from outside the Little Ice Valley, it ran away, which also shows that it is very alert and not without sense.

Whoosh whoosh!

With one slash of the knife, the huge snowdrop began to twist, as if it was trying to throw Li Zhi and the little guy off, and the roots next to it also stood up and twisted.

"Caught it!"

Li Zhi didn't stay on the petals for long, proving that it had lived long enough. He wanted to jump down and cut off this thousand-year-old snow lotus.

You can’t cut it from above, you have to cut it from the rhizome!

The current stem roots are like the human neck, and the roots below, which are either huge or small, are the body and limbs.

Before Li Zhi and the little guy landed, dense roots were already wrapping around each person and the beast.

Wrapped up tightly!

"be safe!"

Li Zhi did not forget to remind the little guy, and slashed at the roots with the alloy chopper in his hand.

The little guy's eyes were shining with light, and his little claws were unmistakable and very sharp, and he cut off many roots of the 'Thousand-Year Snow Lotus' in succession.

These roots are very strong, several meters thick. If you don't have enough brute force, you will be strangled after being entangled!

But these methods didn't seem to have much effect on Li Zhi and the little guy.

First of all, Li Zhi's current physique is very violent. The eleventh-level human physique can no longer be summarized by numbers.

And the little guy is also a 'species' of legendary creatures. His claws are extremely sharp. No matter what it is, it will make a hole when you grab it. It is simply impossible to wrap it around!

But this thousand-year-old snowdrop is not given in vain. The entire cave in the mountain is filled with its roots, which are used as a means of protection for its survival. If others want to kill it, it must use desperate means to do so!

There is nowhere to escape. The roots of this 'thousand-year snowdrop' are all here, where else can it escape?

There is no such thing as becoming a spirit, a thousand-year snowdrop is just a thousand-year snowdrop, and its roots are just its instinctive means of defense.

For Li Zhi and the little guy, cutting off all the roots is just a matter of time!

More than an hour!

With Li Zhi's current physical fitness, it took Li Zhi and the little guy a full hour or so to cut off all the roots of the 'Millennium Snow Lotus'. It was not that they were slow, but that there were too many roots.

, In addition, the ability of this 'Millennium Snow Lotus' to grow back is also amazingly fast. Many roots often grow out again just after being cut off.

It wasn't until Li Zhi violently cut off the connection between the rhizome and the roots, put the thousand-year-old snow lotus into the storage equipment, and cut off the roots from the huge purple lotus root that it became completely honest.

.

After doing all this, the little guy was so tired that he sat on the ground and gasped!

He looked at Li Zhi because Li Zhi put a whole thousand-year-old snowdrop into the storage equipment. His eyes made Li Zhi angry and happy at the same time.

He rolled his eyes angrily and said, "Don't worry, your share will be inevitable, just look at your petty attitude!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the huge purple lotus root!

It's too big, as thick as a locomotive!

Li Zhi held one end, gritted his teeth, and used force to pull the huge purple lotus root out of the ice wall!

It is twenty or thirty meters long, nine sections in total!
