Chapter 389 Wormhole
I nodded and said, "It's true. The owner of the tomb is really mysterious. If there is a chance, we must investigate his identity."
Xiaobai said, "Don't think about that. The Toad King seems to be brewing something. I haven't seen him for months. I think there must be something to do in these two days. If we go late, we can't control the scene."
Hearing what he said, I stopped talking and walked forward with my head.
As I walked, I suddenly found that some of the ice crystal lamps in front had been damaged and the ice had fallen to the ground.
And the plants are more lush, and the whole looks like a jungle, not a hall.
At this time, Xiaobai said to me, "Be careful, further ahead is the territory of the Toad King. I will rule it. The well water has never violated the river, but he is very cautious. The insects in the forest are not easy to mess with. So..."
I was stunned for a moment and asked, "So what?"
Xiaobai said, "So you go ahead!"
I was speechless and said to myself, "Well, I'm just moving the insect repellent.
It's not the first time I've done the work of exploring the road, so it doesn't matter.
In order to avoid insects crawling into the grass, I separated the grass in front of me with my mind and then leaned in.
Xiaobai praised my superpowers and said, "Although we Ilherez are one of the smartest races in the universe, we do not have superpowers. This is a pity. Your ability to control objects is also an upper-class ability even in the era of the national superpower of the galaxy civilization. It seems that Atlantis is really an extraordinary race.
I smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
Separating the grass, I found that the ice crystal pillar in front of me was either covered or destroyed, and there was no light at all.
The first business fire given to me by No. 2 has been extinguished by itself for a long time, and it is also time-limited, and I don't want to take out the business fire in the bottle yet, because it is a life-saving use in a critical moment.
But in this way, there will be no lighting equipment. If you want to move forward from this grass higher than your waist, how can you do without light?
At this time, Xiaobai seemed to understand my mind and said, "The magic flute in your hand can shine by pressing the third hole and the fifth hole together."
I nodded and said, "This thing is really called the magic flute, but it's not strange that the flute can be pronounced. It's the first time I've seen it shine."
Xiaobai said, "In fact, it is not glowing, but it can emit a sound wave that can change the reflection of the senses of organisms. The eyes can receive this sound wave and image it, just like the bat on your earth can recognize the shape and size of an object with ultrasound."
I was a little surprised and said, "This is also quite high-tech."
With that, I tried the method Xiaobai said, and as expected, I heard a buzz in my ears, and then my vision became blurred.
When the line of sight is clear again, everything in front of you can be seen clearly, just like the natural light during the day.
I said that if I go out this time, I must take this magic flute away, which is really practical. Although my night eye can also argue in the dark, my vision is relatively short and blurred, which is much stronger than the night eye.
But once I saw it clearly, I found that not everything had gone smoothly, because I found that there was a swamp not far ahead.
This swamp should be formed because those ice crystal lampposts were broken and melted into a large amount of water.
I don't know why those ice crystal columns can maintain cold ice forms at these temperatures of more than ten degrees, but once they are broken, they will become ordinary ice.
Although I can't figure out the principle, Ilherez's technology is so developed that it should not be difficult to do this.
At this time, Xiaobai said, "It is a swamp formed by melting ice. The Toad King, like other toad animals, likes dark and wet places, so these icicles are deliberately destroyed by it to create this swamp."
I frowned and asked, "I think this swamp is very dangerous. I'm afraid it would be difficult to cross without Cao's boat."
Xiaobai said, "If there is Cao's boat, we can't get through. Do you want to cross it with pulp? This quagmire is more sticky than paste.
I looked at him and said, "What should I do? Did you swim over?"
Xiaobai said, "Hmm, are you an idiot? You have the ability to protect your body. As long as you make a huge plate on the soles of your feet, you will not be submerged by the swamp."
I said, "Of course I know how to do this. Even if I can't make a pedal, I can fly over it through several bounces. What I'm talking about is how you going to get there? I haven't tried to be made by other people's feet, and your feet are too many.
Xiao Bai snorted and said, "I don't have to worry about you. I have my own way to get there. However, this swamp crisis is the first line of defense against me by the Toad King. We should be careful.
I looked at Xiaobai, which meant to see what he said was the way to get through the swamp.
He seemed to know what I meant, so he said impatiently, "Give over the insect fragrance."
I was stunned and asked, "worm fragrance, what kind of insect fragrance?"
Xiaobai said, "Don't pretend to be stupid. When you came into the treasure house of plants, I saw you carrying insect fragrance, that is, something that looks like a large lighter and can emit smoke."
After thinking about it, I remembered that there was indeed such a thing. When I got it, I thought it was a drug used by the ancients, which could give off a refreshing taste.
It turns out that this thing is really not a drug or a refreshing medicine, but an insect fragrance.
I don't need to explain it. I also know what insect fragrance is. It is a kind of taste that insects particularly like, which can attract insects to get close to it. It is generally extracted from some plants that specialize in prey.
I looked for it, felt the smell of insects from my clothes pocket, and then asked, "Is that what you said?"
Xiaobai said, "Yes, if you cover it tightly, the ** inside will be affected by the heat and produce insect incense, and then you put the insect incense on the ground, and it will attract some special insects."
I really want to say that you have no hands. I will do everything. In the end, I feel that I have asked him, so I gave up the idea of saying this.
I found a flat land without grass on the ground and clenched the fragrance.
In a short time, a fragrant smoke came out of the small cracks above the insect fragrance. At this time, I instantly felt that the surrounding grass was shrugging, and some insects must be approaching.
The most common insects next to the swamp are either locusts or grass lice. These two insects that like hot and humid environments survive by sucking the blood of animals, and they are a group of people who bite their skin and drill their heads into the meat to suck blood, which is very horrible.
Whether it's a locust or grass lice, it's not easy to mess with.
Irherez's creatures interact with the earth. Here I saw mammoths and other creatures that are only on the earth, locusts and grass lice, two highly viable creatures. It is estimated that there will also be in Ilherez, and they may be evolutionary bodies, which is even more difficult to mess with.
I retreated while tightening my trouser legs to avoid becoming a mummified corpse.
The result was a little unexpected that the insects did not seem to climb from the ground. I saw several small earth bumps moving under the ground, approaching the insect incense from under the soil layer like a drilling machine.
I was a little curious about what kind of bug came and took a step forward.
At this time, Xiaobai stopped me and said, "It's too early to wait for the bugs to come out."
He said that the bug would come out by itself, so I was more curious and stared straight at the small piles that emerged.
Sure enough, a white thing soon came out from under the soil.
I couldn't help but wonder at a glance, because it is a white worm, but it is much more beautiful than an ordinary worm.
Their bodies are like dough kneaded, pink, and there are a pair of big and round eyes on both sides of their heads, as if they are acting cute.
The heads of these insects are like newly grown bean sprouts, swaying and sucking the smoke released by the insect incense, which is very enjoyable.
At this time, Xiaobai rushed up, grabbed the head of one of the worms, and threw it into the swamp. The other bugs were frightened and shrank down one after another, but several of them were still thrown into the swamp one after another.
I saw inexplicably. I saw squirming fat insects squirming on the swamp, slowly swallowed up by the soil, and the original white became smaller and smaller.
At this time, Xiaobai came to me and prompted me to retreat.
I knew what must happen. I was about to retreat when suddenly a few huge bubbles appeared in the swamp, and then the wet soil splashed like an explosion.
I couldn't avoid it and was covered by the dirt.
But I didn't have time to care about these. In the swamp, a black object like a turtle's back suddenly appeared.
Xiaobai said, "This is a kind of swamp turtle shrimp, a kind of wetland insect. I like to eat noodle insects the most. I still have a few here, which is enough for us to get through the swamp."
After saying that, it showed me a few worms wrapped in its mouth. Although the noodle bug was cute, it also had an indescribable nausea.
I wiped the mud on my body and looked at the swamp turtle shrimp. I found that it really looked like a shrimp, but it was more developed than the shrimp and could crawl steadily, and it was as pure as an oar, which should be specially used to deal with the swamp living environment.
Now this guy is floating on the swamp, greedily digging the noodle worm out of the soil and devouring it.
I knew it was now, so I hugged Xiaobai's neck, jumped hard and jumped on the back of the swamp turtle and shrimp.
The guy was very dull. Although he felt the strangeness on his back, he did not resist, but just ate.
When it was almost eaten, Xiaobai spit out a bug in front of him, and the tortoise and shrimp desperately moved forward.
