Chapter 39 Silver Grass is Alive

Guo Liuli gently stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the smooth surface of the silver doll, but her fingers accidentally touched the silver doll's nose.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still. The silver doll suddenly moved, as if it had life. Guo Liuli's eyes were filled with astonishment. She could hardly believe her eyes and cried out, "Alive...alive?"

Her voice echoed in the empty valley, instantly attracting everyone's attention. Their eyes were all cast towards Guo Liuli, and they saw that the silver doll seemed to be alive at this moment, with its lively eyes flashing with strange light, and one finger was inserted into its mouth, making a sharp whistle.

The whistle was like a signal. The silver dolls hidden in the silver grass began to move. They seemed to be endowed with life and ran around. The silver grass on the entire silver mountain also seemed to be endowed with magical powers and swayed along with the movement.

Guo Lin and the others stood surrounded by the silver grass, feeling a chill rising from the soles of their feet. The silver grass seemed to have life, growing wildly and entwining, trying to trap everyone. Guo Lin tightly grasped the sword in his hand and kept slashing at the silver grass around him, but the silver grass seemed endless, and the more he chopped, the more it grew.

"We can't cut all of this grass. We need to find their weaknesses!" Guo Lin shouted loudly, and at the same time, he used all his strength to split a bunch of silver grass with his sword.

Guo Feipeng and Guo Feimo teamed up to fight against those crazy flowers and trees. Their branches were like whips, lashing them fiercely. Although they were very skilled, they had to dodge carefully under such an intensive attack.

Zhao Ying saw that the situation was becoming increasingly tense. The silver grass was not afraid of swords and was split in two, falling to the ground alive. Her heart tightened, and she quickly turned around and shouted to Guo Feipeng: "Feipeng, fire! Use fire spells quickly!"

Guo Feipeng was so nervous that sweat oozed out of his palms holding the single blade. When he heard Zhao Ying's shout, he suddenly remembered that he was also good at fire magic. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. Then, he opened his palms, and a blazing flame burst out from his palms, like a fire dragon hovering in the air.

Wherever the flames reached, the silver grass quickly withered and turned into a charred black, and burrowed into the mud one after another, as if being devoured by the flames. Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as they had finally found a way to deal with these silver grasses.

However, just when they relaxed their vigilance, a sudden gust of wind blew past. The silver grass that had originally burrowed into the mud actually grew rapidly again under the wind, as if it had life, and attacked them again.

Zhao Ying's heart sank. She only knew wood magic, and now she was helpless in the face of these silver grasses. She watched the fire magics fail, and she was extremely anxious. Suddenly, she thought of her eldest daughter Guo Liuli, who was good at water magic and might be able to find a way to deal with the silver grass.

So he quickly turned to Liuli and shouted, "Liuli, water! Try using water magic!" Liuli realized the severity of the situation when she heard this. She quickly adjusted her breathing, gathered her magic power, and prepared to cast a water magic.

She waved her hands lightly, and a stream of cool water flowed out from her palms, sweeping towards the silver grass. The moment the water came into contact with the silver grass, it made a sizzling sound, as if it was dissolving the vitality of the silver grass.

Seeing this, everyone's eyes lit up with hope. They stared at Liuli, hoping that the water spell could completely destroy the silver grass. However, the vitality of the silver grass seemed to be much stronger than they imagined. Although the water flow could temporarily inhibit their growth, it could not completely destroy them.

For a moment, everyone was in a stalemate. They knew that if they wanted to completely get rid of the entanglement of these silver grasses, they needed to understand their characteristics more deeply and find more effective ways to deal with them.

Guo Meili, Guo Lingli, Guo Fengli and other children were protected by the crowd. Although they were afraid, they tried to stay calm. They knew that panic at this moment would only make the situation worse.

Master Guo Fei took his axe and chopped at the roots of the silver grass. Soon, a large piece of the silver grass fell down and did not grow again.

So he shouted, "Attack them at the roots!"

The contracted guardian, the golden-armored god of war beside him, suddenly sensed some unusual movement, then hid his figure and quietly approached not far away.

After hearing this, everyone changed their strategy and focused on attacking the roots of the silver grass. Sure enough, after losing the support of the roots, the silver grass began to shrink gradually.

However, just when everyone thought they were about to win, the situation changed unexpectedly. The silver dolls that had been running away suddenly emerged from all directions and formed a big circle around everyone. They made faces at everyone with a playful smile, and with a wave of their little hands, they took away all the silver grass that everyone had worked so hard to cut. What was even more surprising was that where the silver grass had grown originally, silver grass seeds actually fell one by one, and the silver grass instantly grew wildly, as if it was even more lush than before.

Zhao Ying and the others felt helpless when they saw this. Whether they burned the silver grass with fire, watered it with water, or cut it with metal, silver grass seeds would fall, and then it would grow even more wildly. Even the wood magic that Zhao Ying secretly cast seemed to speed up the falling of silver grass seeds. Could it be that they were really helpless against this wildly growing silver grass?

Guo Yangli had been hiding behind the crowd since she entered the silver mountain. Her martial arts and magic seemed useless here, and she couldn't help feeling confused and helpless. If Hong Hu wasn't around, she didn't know what else she could do. But it was this cold-eyed observation that made her unexpectedly discover that the silver grass that Guo Lingli had pulled out had not grown again.

She was moved and shouted loudly: "Fengli, Lingli, come here quickly and see if the silver grass here is growing!" Although everyone was injured, they still tried to gather around after hearing Guo Yangli's shout. Sure enough, they found that there was no new silver grass growing where Guo Lingli had just pulled the grass.

"What's going on?" Guo Lin asked in confusion. Guo Lingli frowned slightly and thought carefully about what she had just done. Suddenly, she suddenly realized: "The temperature is the human body temperature! Everyone put down your swords and try to touch the silver grass with human body temperature."

Guo Lin immediately ordered: "Boys, continue to fight the silver grass, girls, follow your mother and try the method Lingli said." Guo Liuli took the lead in pulling out a handful of silver grass. Sure enough, the silver grass turned into water under the temperature of her palm, and no silver grass seeds fell. Soon, everyone worked together to take care of a place where silver grass no longer grew. The boys also came back and lay on the ground to rest.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Ying suddenly looked around and asked in confusion: "Where are the guardians? Why are those contracted guardians gone?" Upon hearing this, everyone looked up and found that the guardians who were supposed to protect them were nowhere to be seen.
