Chapter 12 Man-eating Beast
"What a terrible intuition!"
Xiao Zixuan's words made Ye Han suddenly put away the trace of joke in his heart and became serious again. Although he was surprised by Xiao Zixuan's intuition, Ye Han was not surprised, because Ye Han, who had this intuition, had also met him in his last life, and all of them were with Xiao Zixuan. They have a similar experience, and once these people step into the practice world, almost everyone can finally become an ancestor, and even one of the venerable people in the earth's practice world is the one with this intuition.
A flash of light suddenly appeared in Ye Han's eyes. Looking at Xiao Zixuan, who was already standing next to the big tree and began to study the traces on it, Ye Han said secretly in his heart, "Hey, this boy, I must get you down!" Intuition? Hey hey, boy, I'm sorry, you're still a little young. There are hundreds of ways for you to make you not feel what I'm thinking, but I will never use it, because there is no ghost in my heart, and I will never hurt you! Wait, it seems that I've been patroning this boy for a long time. Damn it, I'd better find Li Jue first, and we'll talk about the rest later!"
Thinking of this, Ye Han immediately stood up and walked to Xiao Zixuan's side: "Well, have you found a clue?"
Xiao Zixuan ignored Ye Han and still looked carefully on the trunk. After a long time, Xiao Zixuan took a breath and said, "Wow, I finally found it!"
"Why is it so hard to find it this time? You were quite sharp in the first few times?" Ye Han asked strangely.
"There is no way. There should be a tiger and three wild wolves fighting here before. Their fight almost completely destroyed the traces left by those people. I can only peel them off little by little and distinguish the traces of the four beasts fighting from the traces of those people passing by to judge the wheres of those people. This But it's very time-consuming!" Xiao Zixuan explained in a rare way.
"A tiger and three wolves, you can also see this. Awesome, I can only see that there are beasts fighting here, but I can't see what kind of beast it is. How can you see it... Forget it, I won't ask. Time is running out. Let's find my friend first!" Ye Han stopped his curiosity in a hurry. When the business was over, he didn't ask whatever he wanted.
"Well, let's go!" He replied coldly, and Xiao Zixuan turned around and ran out.
So the two began to shuttle through the mountains and forests again. This time, they were lucky. There was no such thing as beast fighting to cover up the tracking clues along the way. An hour later, the two finally approached the mouth of a cave, but when they walked more than 100 meters away from the mouth of the cave, Xiaozi Xuan raised his hand to stop Ye Han.
"What's the matter? What's wrong?" Ye Han asked strangely. He looked up at the environment in front of him. A steep mountain wall was hundreds of meters away in front of them. The width of the mountain wall was about 300 meters. On the left side of the middle below the mountain wall, there was a two-tall cave. The mouth of the cave was dark and could not see the situation inside the cave at all, and in front of the mountain wall. The face is a piece of yellow land that is not less than 100 meters long and wide. Ye Han and Xiao Zixuan are now standing in front of this bare land.
"I've been to this place!" Xiao Zixuan replied coldly.
"Have you been here? That's just right. You should be familiar with this place. Take the way. We don't have much time!" As soon as he heard Xiao Zixuan say that he had been here, Ye Han immediately urged him. Since Xiao Zixuan was familiar with this place, they could move faster.
"No, I have been to this place more than once, but I never dare to step on the yellow land in front of me!"
"Why, is there anything strange here?"
Xiao Zixuan didn't say anything. He just got up and looked around. Then he walked to a head-sized stone, bent down and picked up the stone. Then he threw the stone on the yellow land with both hands and threw it hard. The heavy stone rolled far away from the ground before he stopped.
"What are you doing?" Ye Han looked at Xiao Zixuan's movements and asked inexplicably.
Xiao Zixuan didn't say anything, but stared at the stone on the yellow land with his sharp eyes for a moment.
The appearance of Xiao Zixuan shocked Ye Han. He believed that Xiao Zixuan would never aim. This yellow land should be really strange, so he immediately focused on the stone like Xiao Zixuan.
Sure enough, in a few short breathing time, Ye Han suddenly saw the yellow land under the stone vibrate slightly. Then before Ye Han could react, an ordinary finger-thick tentacle suddenly broke the yellow land, stretched out from under the stone, quickly rolled up the stone, and then "poof" The sound pulled the stone down, and where the stone disappeared, there appeared a hole slightly larger than the stone. From a distance, you can see that there is a black mud pool under the hole.
At this time, a few more tentacles suddenly stretched out from the mouth of the cave. These tentacles turned over in the mouth of the cave, turned up the mud in the mud and blocked the hole again. Now, if the color of the mud was not different from the yellow land around, Ye Han thought that he could not see it at all. What's the difference? And Ye Han believes that under the sunlight, when the moisture in the mud is steamed, it will become the same yellow as the surroundings.
"What's going on? What was that just now?" Ye Han looked at the land in front of him and asked solemnly.
"That's a man-eating beast!"
"A man-eating beast?"
"Yes!" Xiao Zixuan nodded and explained to Ye Han: "The man-eating beast looks like a ball, but there are countless tentacles around this ball. This man-eating beast likes to live in the swamp and eat the flesh and blood of various animals for a living. Their way of prey is very strange. They will use tentacles to turn the mud in the swamp. It piles up above the swamp within the range of their tentacles, and when the mud is dried by the sun, it will form the yellow land we see now. In addition, the man-eating beast will not make this layer of yellow land thick, so that their tentacles can easily break through the land and stretch out. When animals walk on the yellow land for unknown reasons, the cannibal beast will reach out their tentacles to pull down the animals, and then repair the yellow land with mud again!"
"In addition!" Xiao Zixuan continued to explain: "These man-eating beasts are also very smart. They will choose to set traps near the edge of the swamp, so that the yellow land they make can connect with the ground outside the swamp, which is convenient for the animals to walk up. In addition, the cannibal beast under the yellow land we see now should still be young, because the area of this yellow land is too small, and its tentacles are too thin. The tentacles of an adult cannibal beast will not be thinner than an adult's waist.
