"Aaaah!" Wang Rong screamed as a twig as thick as a pinky dashed out of the grass and wrapped around her left leg. The twig was covered with barbed pricks, which all stuck into her skin simultaneously.
"Ah!"
She fell to the ground at the tug, and her left leg felt as if it was surrounded by countless giant mosquitoes that had buried their mouthpieces into her flesh. She could distinctively feel her blood being sucked out of her.
"Help! Help!"
"Wait, wait… I'm coming, I…"
Guo Yu was petrified, for he saw that not far from where he was standing, a strange plant about waist high had stood up, waving its branches as if it was some sort of animal.
"Help her! Quickly!" An Susu nudged Guo Yu repeatedly, but the latter stood there frozen.
As a kid growing up in the countryside, she was a fearless little thing. She snatched the sword from Guo Xu's hand, and ran towards Wang Rong.
"Don't panic, Sister! I'm coming!"
