Chapter 207: Red Bone Anthill
"It's supposed to be a nest up ahead, and I smell a very strong, um, feces smell. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" McDull's intermittent subtle voice came into Ye Kuan's ears, and Ye Kuan nodded secretly.
McDull is an orc, and all kinds of feelings are far beyond the human race, in such an environment, it is simply swimming in the water, and all kinds of subtle changes cannot escape its induction.
But because of Liu Yuan and the others, McDull and Ye Kuan did not dare to have too obvious communication, and when they found some information, they could not express it completely in time or clearly.
Later, I tried it, and I communicated with Ye Kuan once in the simplest sound transmission method that McDull could master, but the two of them did not find out, so one person and one pig began to communicate carefully.
After all, the sound is not even a Yuan Technique, it is just a martial arts stunt, and in front of two Yuan Shi with five senses far beyond ordinary people, the communication between one person and one pig is not too obvious.
"If there is danger, watch for both of them as much as possible. Ye Kuan reminded McDull.
In the later stage of Ye Kuan's body forging, he used the Yuan technique to transmit sound, and the two of them did not hear it at all.
McDull rolled her eyes, then nodded.
After the three of them walked for a while, not only was the air hotter and hotter, but the smell in the air was heavier, and there was a faint clicking sound in the passage that began to narrow.
"You two are waiting here, I'll go over and take a look. Ye Kuan pressed his hand back to signal the two of them to wait in place, and he continued to walk forward alone.
"Senior Brother Ye be careful. Behind Ye Kuan, there were the concerned voices of the two.
After Ye Kuan walked for a while, the air had changed from stuffy to hot, as if there was a huge stove in front of him, and the strange smell in the air had reached the extreme, the dense clicking sound made people feel trembling, the passage had also shrunk to the size of only three people in parallel, and a layer of sticky ink black appeared on the ground, and the strange smell emanated from these ink black.
"You're stomping. McDull teased in a whisper with a wicked smile.
"If you laugh again, I'll throw you into the shit and let you go by yourself!" Ye Kuan said with a dark face, and the ruffian pig on his shoulder immediately shut up.
The ink black under his feet was getting thicker and thicker, and Ye Kuan could only walk against the wall of the cave in order to step on these disgusting things a little less.
Finally, there was a faint red light ahead, and Ye Kuan cautiously walked over to take a look.
Another hole in the ground, in the middle of the hole there is a bubbling pool of hot slurry, next to the pool of dense palm-sized figures constantly shuttling back and forth, seemingly disorderly actions but implying an order.
The surface of these figures is dark red and rough, and a pair of sharp teeth like giant pincers in the mouth of the shuttle keep opening and closing with a terrible clicking sound, and the six feet and feet move quickly, and they can travel a long distance in the blink of an eye.
"Red Bone Ant!?" The moment he saw the figure below, Ye Kuan was slightly stunned.
At this moment, the place where Ye Kuan was standing was above the underground cave, and the exit of the passage was actually above the wall of the underground cave, and it was the highest of the many passages in the underground cave.
It is called a red bone ant by the leaf width, and it is a kind of alien insect.
In fact, it is difficult to distinguish the definition of alien insects and primordial beasts, such as ghost spiders and golden light locusts, which will also be called primordial beasts by Yuanshi, this is because some alien insects will also open up their spiritual wisdom as their cultivation increases, and finally they can communicate across the boundaries of race.
But in fact, many insects do not, such as those below that are called red bone ants by Ye Kuan.
Red bone ants, these insects, except for the queen ant, the rest of the red bone ants only have a very low spiritual intelligence, even if they cultivate to the stage of the fifth-order spiritual intelligence, their spiritual intelligence is still not much improved, and it is very difficult to communicate.
It is precisely because of their low intelligence and almost ignorance that these red-bone ants are extremely loyal, unless it is ordered by the queen ant, to deal with foreign enemies is to sacrifice their lives and die to move forward and not know how to retreat.
Judging from the breath, the red bone ants below are only first-order insects, so the red bone ant queen is basically a second-order, even so, Ye Kuan in the late stage of forging is also a little afraid of these palm-sized insects.
There are too many of them! What frightened Yuanshi was not only the low intelligence and not afraid of life and death, but also the terrifying number.
The figure slowly retreated, and the passage mouth where Ye Kuan was standing was at the top of the cave in the ground, under the steaming heat below, his own smell could not be transmitted, and because of the sticky and heavy ink black on the ground, there was not much sound between the movements, and the red bone ants, who were extremely sensitive to smells and vibrations, did not notice this uninvited guest, so he let him peek and leave safely.
Soon after, Ye Kuan returned to Liu Yuan's side.
"Senior Brother Ye, what's the matter?" As soon as Ye Kuan returned, the two of them immediately asked impatiently.
"There's a red bone anthill in front. Ye Kuan replied.
"Shhhh
The two of them gasped.
"One of the Yuanshi killers of the Purgatory Canyon, the Red Bone Ant!?" Wang Chengcai exclaimed.
In the Purgatory Canyon, in addition to the fire rock ape that Ye Kuan encountered before, there were also several kinds of creatures that made the Yuan Shi who came to experience change their color, and the red bone ant was one of them.
"Don't worry, it's just a first-order red bone ant, not a second-order one. Ye Kuan comforted the two.
The two of them looked bitter and were speechless.
Even if it is a first-order red bone ant, the number of this kind of insect is huge, even if the Yuan Shi of the Forging Period is trapped, he can only end up with no bones left, and if the two of them encounter the little guy of the Yuan Gathering Period, they may not even be able to escape.
"Let's go back, there is a red fire ant nest in this passage, which should not be the exit passage. With that, Ye Kuan began to return the same way.
Hearing this, the two of them relaxed a lot, and there were as many as two passages, according to reason, the real exit should be in these two passages, but somehow, the two of them were heavy in their hearts, and a sense of uneasiness hung in their hearts.
Soon, the three of them returned to the cave, and Ye Kuan chose the passage on the right without much hesitation.
The passage on the right is crooked, and a corner will appear after walking for a while, and the three of them carefully walked through one corner after another, and they don't know how many corners they have walked through, and the line of sight in front of them is suddenly narrow, and they have come to the end.
At the end of the passage, there was some grass-like grass, but the grass was messy, as if it had been scratched by some beasts.
Seeing this scene, the three of them only thought for a moment, and their faces suddenly darkened.
The three of them returned to the cave and stepped onto the last passage on the left.
Along the way, the three of them were silent, the atmosphere was heavy, and no one wanted to speak.
Not long after, despair appeared on the faces of Liu Yuan and the others, Ye Kuan's face also became gloomy as ink, and the three of them looked at the scene in front of them speechlessly.
It didn't take long for this passage to come to an end, and it was empty, and there was not even a trace of the beasts that had ever inhabited it.
The three of them silently returned to the cave, and after a moment of silence, Liu Yuan asked bitterly: "Senior Brother Ye, there is a red bone anthill in the passage leading to the exit, what should I do?"
