Sima Yilan looked at the corners of the old man's mouth trembling continuously, and said in a deep voice: "Senior, what happened in the land of the damned?" ”

"Man-eating ants, that area is full of man-eating ant nests!" The Great Elder's lips twitched for a while, and then he said in a trembling voice: "When we entered the Cursed Land and saw the mound of earth on the ground and the white bones of the beasts, we felt that something was wrong, but we didn't expect that as soon as we operated, it would provoke the attack of man-eating ants, except for me and Qingfeng's old friend, the rest of the people were all left there!" ”

Hearing the Great Elder's words, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on Lin Bai's face. The best novels are comfortable to read man-eating ants, also known as brown ants, about the size of a fist, fierce by nature, invincible, even jackals, tigers and leopards can't fight against them.

Man-eating ants have a very mixed diet, from all kinds of animals and plants on the ground to dead branches and carrion. Although they are not impressive, they have a large appetite, and no matter how big a man or beast is, they are within their range.

If a colony of man-eating ants finds any prey, it will come up from all directions. It wasn't long before the ant colony dispersed, and all that was left on the ground was a white and miserable skeleton. Even large carnivores such as tigers and lions, even humans, have no chance to escape once they are attacked by such ant colonies.

Looking at the Great Elder's pained expression, Lin Bai could almost imagine the situation at that time, countless black ants rushed towards the crowd led by the Great Elder and Sima Qingfeng like a tide, and then drowned those who didn't have time to dodge, just a few breaths, and he was about to watch his companions being devoured into white bones by those man-eating ants.

"Seeing my companion's flesh and blood turn into white bones, but I don't even have the slightest means to fight, even now, as soon as I close my eyes, it seems that that scene is still in front of me......" The Great Elder reached out and wiped the old tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a depressed voice.

The tribe is only so big, all the people know each other, and those who are willing to follow to the cursed land are all people who have a good relationship with this great elder. Suffering such a disaster, not to mention the family members of the parties involved, even the Great Elder must be guilty in his heart!

"The deceased has passed away, senior, please mourn." After comforting the Great Elder, Sima Yilan continued, "Insects and the like are afraid of flames, and those ants live on the ground. We can try it with fire! ”

"It's not going to work. I've watched TV before, and it says that although ants can't swim, as soon as they sense that the fire is about to decrease, they will huddle together, layer upon layer, and roll into small balls and swim into the river to the other side. Although the ants in the outer layer will be drowned, most of them will remain, and they will still launch a counterattack, and they will be more ferocious! Lin Bai shook his head and said.

The Great Elder nodded, and sighed, "Originally, my old friend and I had the same idea, wanting to use fire to burn those man-eating ants, but I didn't expect them to do such a move with the help of the rivers of the Cursed Lands. Fortunately, these man-eating ants are only confined to the cursed land and cannot spread out, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable! ”

Something like man-eating ants has no natural predators in the rainforest, and if they spread out of the Cursed Lands, it would be nothing less than a catastrophe not only for this tribe of the Mayan remnants, but also for the entire rainforest! Man-eating ants eat everything, trees, animals, once out of the cursed land, waiting for this rainforest has only one end, that is, to become a desert.

"Qingfeng old friend and the two of us tried the method again, but we couldn't find any solution at all, in desperation, the two of us can only think that this is the will of God, Qingfeng old friend in the tribe for a few days, then returned to Huaxia!" The Great Elder sighed and said, "But I didn't expect that after this parting, there would be a separation between heaven and man. ”

Sima Yilan and Lin Bai were also speechless for a long time after hearing this, and after hearing that this tribe was a bloody land, they still felt a little happy in their hearts. But after listening to the Great Elder explain the whole story, it was like pouring a basin of cold water on their heads, and the little flame of excitement in their hearts was directly extinguished.

"Is there any other way we can solve it?" Sima Yilan looked up at the Great Elder and pleaded, "I know that the Mayan Relic Clan is good at the art of prophecy, I don't know if the Great Elder can predict whether this matter will take a turn for the better." ”

"Legend has it since ancient times, as depicted in the Codex Drayton, that when the pyramids bloom with light like the sun god, when the flow of the Amazon begins to reverse, the dragon descends on the land of the damned, making it a fertile soil for our Mayan remnants to cultivate!" The Great Elder shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The pyramids shine as brightly as the sun god! The Amazon River flows backwards! The dragon descends on the Cursed Lands! How these strange words tell about how things can happen, in terms of the backflow of the Amazon River alone, it is due to the topography, if there is a change by manpower, how much price it will have to pay, how many mountains can be excavated, even if it is a lifetime, it will not be able to see that day!

"This is the language of the ancestors, we Mayan remnants have rules, for the ancestors have predicted things, the descendants must not have any speculation, nor can they prophesy again, otherwise it will lead to the wrath of the sun god!" The Great Elder's eyes were full of bitterness, and he said.

In fact, the reason for such a rule is very simple, prophecy and the calculation in the Chinese physiognomy are the same, like such a big event, can only speculate on his general trend, if you chase hard, want to explore the details, it will lead to the backlash of heaven and earth, at least the trajectory of life changes, and at worst will lose your life.

"Lin Bai, what should we do then?" After Sima Yilan listened to the words of the Great Elder, her heart was in turmoil, she no longer had any thoughts in her mind, and she looked at Lin Bai beside her, wanting to get an answer from him.

Lin Bai shook his head and said softly, "According to what the Great Elder said, I can't help it, but it's best to go around the Cursed Land and take a look, maybe I can find something that can solve it!" ”

"Without further ado, let's go now!" Sima Yilan's temperament was extremely anxious, and when she heard Lin Bai's words, she looked at the Great Elder and pleaded, but as soon as the words fell, her stomach was rumbling.

Hearing this, Sima Yilan's face turned red, and the Great Elder chuckled: "It's getting late now, and you can't see anything after nightfall, and those man-eating ants are extremely sensitive to the light of fire after being burned by the fire, if we go over with torches, maybe it will cause them to attack." Why don't you eat today, and then I'll bring you two over tomorrow! ”

"Great Elder, the bonfire is ready. The clansmen want your elderly family to join us. As soon as the Great Elder's words fell, the Thirteenth Elder walked in from outside the house and looked at the Great Elder with a look of expectation.

The Great Elder shook his head, sighed, and said, "You have entertained the distinguished guests, and as for me, as usual, I will wait until the clansmen have finished eating, and then take the rest of the things to my hut." ”

Hearing the Great Elder's words, the Thirteenth Elder's expression suddenly darkened, but he didn't say anything more. took Lin Bai and Sima Yilan and walked out of the house.

"Why didn't the Great Elder attend the bonfire dinner with the clansmen, is there something hidden?" Lin Bai saw that the Thirteen Elders' expressions were extremely gloomy, so he asked.

The Thirteenth Elder nodded and said in a deep voice, "After what happened in the Land of the Damned, the Great Elder felt that he was ashamed of his clansmen. After sending Qingfeng away from the seniors, the Great Elder felt ashamed of his clansmen, so he passed the position of elder to me, and then confined himself in the hut to avoid going out, praying for the blessings of those dead compatriots, and the food was only to eat what was left over from the clansmen. ”

"In fact, the clansmen still have a lot of respect for the Great Elder, but the Great Elder himself can't get out of that knot." The Thirteenth Elder raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "If his old man can come to the bonfire dinner, the clansmen will be very happy!" Forget it, let's not talk about this in front of the two distinguished guests, let's hurry up and go to the dinner, the clan is waiting! ”

The flames were vigorous, reflecting the night. The dinner was very well prepared, not only corn tortillas and barbecue are common foods in Mexico, but what Lin Bai and the others did not expect was that there was actually chocolate in this Mayan relict tribe, and after asking, the two knew that chocolate was actually a specialty of the Mayans, and they could be said to be the first people in the world to make chocolate!

The dinner was followed by a grand bonfire, and the people of the tribe were exceptionally hospitable. Not only presented the best food to Lin Bai and Sima Yilan, but also showed their most beautiful dancing, watching these people dance as if worshipping the heavens, Lin Bai's heart was full of sighs, fortunately, there are Mayan relics, otherwise these civilizations will be lost from the world.

But even if the food is delicious and the dancing is beautiful, Sima Yilan is still not interested, she has been planning for so long in the world, but she didn't expect that it would be such a result in the end.

"A drink and a peck, there are days. Miss Yilan, you don't have to worry, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, the two of us have had good luck along the way, and we will definitely find a solution to those man-eating ants in the cursed land! Lin Bai reached out to hold Sima Yilan's hand and said softly.

The temperature was transmitted from the palm of the hand to Sima Yilan's body, and the heart, which had lost hope, finally burned a small flame again, although it was only a spark, but it had the possibility of burning the prairie fire.

As soon as a glimmer of dawn appeared in the sky, the Thirteen Elders called Lin Bai and Sima Yilan from their beds. Speaking of which, there was a joke when the room was divided last night, and the thirteen elders thought that the two were a couple, so they only prepared one room, but they didn't expect such a fuss, but it made Sima Yilan blush.

"Great Elder! Look, that's the Great Elder coming out! When Lin Bai and Sima Yilan were fetching water to wash their faces, they heard the sound of a commotion around them, and when they turned their heads, they saw the Great Elder walking out of the hut on crutches.

Everyone in the tribe was like crazy, and countless people rushed out of the house, looking in awe at the old man standing in front of the hut, his hand on his forehead to block the light of the sky.

"Great Elder, your old man is finally willing to come out to see us!" A Mayan tribesman closest to the Great Elder immediately knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at the Great Elder with teary eyes and said in a trembling voice.
