Chapter 355: Hundred-footed Sand Leech
There is no endless road, and Leng Yi finally finds a small oasis before dark. I took a good shower, ate a little, lit a bonfire, and the temperature in the desert can sometimes reach below zero at night. Campfires protect against the cold and also from the beasts of the desert.
In the light of the bonfire, Leng Yi took out a high-precision map of the desert from his backpack, studied it carefully, and Bai Qi also appeared.
"Master, where do you say this Dayu Jiuding will be in this desert?" Leng Yi asked with a frown.
"I don't know very well, according to the legend recorded in the literature, Jiuding should be in the royal city of Jinhai Kingdom, looking at this map, the royal city of Jinhai Kingdom should be in this place. Bai Qi said.
"It should be this place, a small dot on the map, but the reality is a desert with a radius of nearly 100 kilometers, where do you want to find this?" Leng Yi took out an ancient map and compared it with a satellite map, and said distressedly.
"The emperor lives up to his hard work, come on, apprentice. "Bai Qi has an expression that I am very optimistic about you.
"Rely on ,,,," Leng Yi scolded in his heart, if Bai Qi was not his master, it is estimated that Bai Qi's ancestors would be greeted by him for eight generations.
At this time, there was a 'whooshing' sound in the desert, and Leng Yi immediately realized that the sound was coming from the desert under his feet.
A murderous aura suddenly struck from under his feet, Leng Yi instantly rose into the air, only to see that where he was standing, the sand and soil were broken, and a slender black shadow burst out from inside, biting Leng Yi's feet.
Leng Yi moved his body in the air, dodged the attack, took advantage of the momentum to step on the head of the black shadow, and fell to the ground hard, only to hear a click, and the things under his feet shattered.
Leng Yi only saw clearly what was still wriggling under his feet at this time, a super version of a centipede that was one meter long and had thick arms. The head had been crushed by Leng Yi, and black blood flowed out, emitting a fishy smell.
"Master, what is this?" Leng Yi asked, looking at the disgusting thing in front of him.
"It turned out to be a hundred-legged sand leech. Bai Qi said in shock.
"Hundred-legged sand leech, what is it?" Seeing Bai Qi's serious expression, Leng Yi suddenly had a bad feeling.
"The hundred-legged leech, a terrifying animal in the desert, this animal has been staying in the sand, shuttling in the sand, rubbing the body against the land, accumulating over time, the body shell has become very hard, this animal is very brutal, the lethality is powerful, the average animal only has to be killed when he encounters him, and it can be regarded as one of the overlords in the desert. Bai Qi said.
"Is this thing also a hegemon?" Leng Yi looked at the hundred-legged sand leech that had been trampled to death in surprise.
"The hundred-legged leech has a hard body, and an animal can't break through their defenses at all, but their teeth can easily tear the body of other animals, and the hundred-legged leech also has a weakness, that is, the place under the jaw, that place is the weakest because it shuttles through the sand and soil, and does not contact with the land. ”
"The main reason why hundred-legged leeches have become one of the overlords of the desert is that they are social animals, and the appearance of one means that a group is nearby, and in the face of thousands of such monsters, it feels terrifying to think about it. Bai Qi said.
"Master, why didn't you say it earlier? You want to kill your apprentice? Now I don't have time to run for my life. Leng Yi heard the sound of 'whooshing' everywhere in the desert at this time, and his face turned white.
"My white apprentice is a fugitive, and besides, where can you flee in this desert? Bai Qi said.
The sound of 'whooshing' in the sand kept coming, and countless hundred-legged sand leeches had come to Leng Yi's surroundings.
Leng Yi pulled out the three-edged military thorn from the sandy boot, his nerves were tense, ready to deal with the hundred-legged sand leech that jumped out of the ground at all times.
As soon as the killing was about to start, hundred-legged sand leeches kept jumping out of the sand and attacking Leng Yi.
The sharp triangular military thorn, combined with Leng Yi's lightning-fast speed and domineering power, can easily tear through the hard shell of the hundred-legged sand leech even if it does not hit the vital point of the hundred-legged sand leech.
Soon, there were many hundred-legged leeches lying around Leng Yi, some of them were dead, some were still struggling and wriggling, sprinkled with black blood, emitting a strong fishy smell.
"Master, you should think of a way, when will this be killed?" Leng Yi easily killed a hundred-legged sand leech and said with a wry smile.
"These centipeded leeches are all single-celled animals. Bai frowned.
"Master, what do you mean by this?" Leng Yi was confused, not knowing what Bai Qi wanted to express.
It means that these hundred-legged leeches are brainless, they don't know what fear is at all, they only know instinctive killing. So even if you kill a lot, the rest won't feel scared to run away. So you now have only two options, either kill all the hundred-legged leeches in this group, or kill their mothers, so that the hundred-legged leeches will scatter and flee without a leader. The female worm is similar to the wolf king and is the leader of a race. Bai Qi said.
Leng Yi is tired of killing now, there is smelly black blood everywhere, even if he is not killed, he will be disgusted to death. So Leng Yi couldn't wait to find the mother worm and kill it.
Soon Leng Yi found the place where the mother worm was, where there were the most hundred-legged leeches, and occasionally you could see a hundred-legged leech more than three meters long and thick with a bucket crawling out of the sand and making a call, and the rest of the hundred-legged leeches heard the cry, and the attack was even more ferocious, it seems that the female worm organizes the attack through the call.
Leng Yi was killing while observing carefully, looking for an opportunity to snipe the mother worm.
When the female worm exposes its huge head to the surface of the desert, it looks up to make a cry and organize an attack. Leng Yi flicked one hand, and the three-edged military thorn in his hand turned into a cold light, piercing into the weak spot under the mother worm's jaw.
I saw the body of the female worm jump out of the sand, let out a howl, fell to the ground, and suddenly the surrounding hundred-legged sand leeches scattered and fled.
Leng Yi finally pulled out the three-edged military thorn that had submerged under the mother's jaw.
"Good boy, you did a good job, and you are a lot more proficient in moves, you must know that only the battle of life and death is the best shortcut to improve your strength, and it also has a great effect on the improvement of your mood. Bai Qi said with praise.
"Master, don't fool me, my apprentice was almost killed by you, I'd rather fight against many masters than kill these disgusting bugs. Leng Yi smiled wryly.
At this time, hundreds of hundred-legged leeches had died around Leng Yi, and the air was full of fishy smell.
