Chapter 776: The Flower of Life
Li Mobai and the others also looked at Gu Shanshui suspiciously, not knowing how he could suddenly change his mind and be willing to take a big risk to help them cross the Huahe.
"I don't know if I have anything that can help Master Gu?" Zhou Wen didn't agree easily, Gu Shanshui obviously saw something from the little bird.
Gu Shanshui said: "It's not a secret, our Gu family is also good at raising Gu and taming Gu, I found a mythical dimensional creature in one place, and I wanted to domesticate it, but because it was too powerful, I haven't been able to do it." If Mr. Zhou, you are willing to help me, I will definitely be able to subdue him. ”
When Gu Shanshui spoke, he glanced at the bird, and it was obvious that the target he really wanted to ask for help was the bird.
"If it is within our ability, we should help each other, but we are in a hurry to go to the Valley of No Return now, I'm afraid it will be ......"
Before Zhou Wen's words were finished, Gu Shanshui said: "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I'll help you go to the Valley of No Return first, and when we come back from the Valley of No Return, it's not too late for Mr. Zhou to help me." ”
"Master Gu, I still have to ask first, what kind of mythical dimensional creature you want to tame, what kind of ability do you want to tame?, what do you want me to do?" Zhou Wen asked seriously.
Zhou Wen is not willing to break the contract at will, so he still has to ask first.
"Mr. Zhou, can you take a step to speak? Gu Shanshui obviously didn't want others to know the information of that dimensional creature.
Zhou Wen and Gu Shanshui came aside, and Gu Shanshui said: "The dimensional creature I want to domesticate is a corpse silkworm, which is in a polar yin dimensional realm, and it is extremely dangerous for ordinary people, but Mr. Zhou, you have a phoenix divine bird with you, and it is not difficult to subdue the corpse silkworm." ”
"I can only promise to help, but when the time comes, I can only do my best, and I can't guarantee that it will be done. After all, Zhou Wen had never seen a corpse silkworm, and he didn't know what the corpse silkworm's ability was, so he was very conservative.
"That's fine. "The valley is very open.
After the two of them talked, they walked back, and several people got back on the road, and Gu Shanshui took Gu Lou and Gu He to continue to open the road in front.
On the way, some corpses with jellyfish mushrooms were found one after another, and Gu Shanshui's expression became a little dignified.
When they were on the road, Gu Lou and Gu He secretly looked at the bird from time to time, and even Li Mobai and the others took a few more glances at the bird, obviously they all understood that Gu Shanshui's previous actions must be related to the bird.
The little bird stood on Zhou Wen's shoulder and looked around triumphantly.
Zhou Wen has been observing the surrounding situation with Di Ting, hoping to find the mother body of the jellyfish fungus, but he has never found the mother, only the parasitic corpses.
Suddenly, Tai Sui in the backpack got out, flapped his wings, and flew towards the woods next to him.
"What's going on?" Li Mobai and the others all looked at Zhou Wen.
"It's okay, my companion has been in the backpack for too long and wants to go out for a walk. Zhou Wen said perfunctorily.
He didn't want to be perfunctory, but he didn't know what Tai Sui wanted to do, and there was no way to explain it clearly.
Zhou Wen had been using Di Ting to observe the direction in which Tai Sui had flown over, but there was nothing there at all.
Tai Sui flew out for nearly a thousand meters, swooped down towards the ground, and then burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
Tai Sui will escape, Zhou Wen can't hear where it went, but after a while, he saw Tai Sui come out of the ground again, and quickly flew back.
It's just that its stomach is visibly bulging, and it doesn't know what it ate.
This was also a moment of time, seeing Zhou Wen's companion pet come back, everyone was back on the road again.
This time on the road, although he encountered some corpses again, but no jellyfish fungus was found on those corpses, Zhou Wen saw this situation, and probably guessed that it must be Tai Sui who escaped into the ground and ate the mother body of the jellyfish fungus.
Zhou Wen was a little sorry, he didn't even see what the mother looked like, and he was eaten by Tai Sui.
In addition to the interference of jellyfish fungi, everyone's travel speed is much faster, and Zhou Wen can be regarded as having a long experience, many of the strange creatures here are something that Zhou Wen has never seen before, and he has never even heard of it.
Fortunately, there are valleys and mountains and rivers that lead the way and avoid the dimensional realm, otherwise if they fall into the dimensional realm, I don't know how many terrifying unknown creatures they will encounter.
Zhou Wen saw a sea of flowers from a distance, with white petals and red stamens, and from a distance, it looked like a white river glowing with blood.
"That's the River of Flowers. Gu Shanshui pointed to the flowers that meandered like a big river in the distance.
Everyone's eyes were already focused on the Huahe, and Zhou Wen was also searching the Huahe with Diting, but among those flowers, there were no living creatures at all except for patches of flowers.
The locals call this flower the Flower of Life, but wherever the Flower of Life appears, there is no room for other creatures to survive, and even weeds do not grow there.
In the past, it was very safe for humans to enter Huahe, because there were no other creatures in Huahe, let alone dimensional creatures, so Huahe became an important road between some nearby cities.
But since half a month ago, none of the people who entered the Huahe River have been able to come out alive, all of them have disappeared, and this road has been cut off.
Zhou Wen carefully looked at the flowers of life, those flowers were not big, they looked a little similar to peach blossoms, and the clusters were beautiful.
"These flowers of life don't look like dimensional creatures. Li Mobai looked at the flower of life in the distance and said.
Gu Shanshui nodded and said: "The flower of life existed before the dimensional storm, it was a poisonous flower, after the dimensional storm, the poisonous flower mutated, and the number also increased, forming a flower river." But I don't know what the reason is, the mutated flower of life, on the contrary, has no toxins, many people have tested the flower of life, it no longer contains any toxins, even if it is eaten, it will not be harmful to humans. But it may be a little different now, so please wait, I need to do some experimentation first. ”
Zhou Wen and the others all stopped, waiting for Gu Shanshui's experiment, because no one knew what the danger in Huahe was, so they could only analyze it from the flower of life itself.
Different from the experiment imagined by Zhou Wen, Gu Shanshui opened a bamboo tube, and released a worm that looked like a silkworm from the bamboo tube, white and fat, and the worm crawled towards the flower river, first gnawed the leaves and rhizomes of the flower of life, and then gnawed on the flowers, and it didn't seem to be a problem.
"This is a white silkworm, which is very sensitive to toxins, and if the toxins are absorbed, the body will take on a different color. Gu Shanshui explained.
"Now that the white silkworm has not changed color, does it mean that the flower of life is still not poisonous?" Butterfly asked curiously.
As soon as her words fell, she suddenly saw that the white silkworm's body was straight, fell from the flower, and died straight, but its body was still white and had not changed.
