Chapter 154: The Giant Tree
On the back of this building, it's full of blood cicadas!
Because of the heavy rain, these blood cicadas are not active, and they do not chirp, but occasionally flutter their wings slightly, but there are too many of them, like bees in a hive, densely packed, dyeing the building the color of blood, so it will form the buzzing sound that Lin Xi heard just now.

"It must be at least a few hundred thousand, right?"
This situation is quite incredible, it is said that cicadas generally do not get together, even if they are grouped, they will not be like this, but Lin Xi was only shocked and relieved, the previous experience can be learned, but it can't all be taken seriously, some abnormal creatures will indeed subvert the previous cognition, isn't the carp in the pond of the Lin family in the past.
So Lin Xi was more careful, and he didn't dare to make too much of a move, for fear of making a noise, and after carefully observing the blood cicadas and the dried corpses that were hanging down for a while, Lin Xi found that the two were related.
From time to time, some blood cicadas would come out of the clothes of those dried corpses and crawl along the vines to the back of the building, and some blood cicadas would also crawl into the dried corpses, and Lin Xi thought of a terrible guess: these blood cicadas were treating living creatures as parasites, and their eggs lay in the bodies of living creatures, growing on the flesh and blood of living creatures.
This type of creature also exists in peaceful times, as the influence of the dragon vein grows, this anomalous creature becomes more and more common, many bugs do this, it is obviously cruel to those living creatures, but for these bugs, this way of reproduction can make their population grow rapidly, the blood cicada in front of them is an example, according to the habits of cicadas in the past, it is impossible to form such a scale in a short period of time.
But Lynsey still has a question, that is, where does the fog come from? Could it be that it was also made by the blood cicada, but Lin Xi couldn't see that the fog was a little related to the blood cicada, holding this question, Lin Xi was more vigilant, maybe these fogs were made by another creature.
Lin Xi didn't want to provoke so many blood cicadas, he quietly retreated, and when he retreated, then Lin Xi noticed that the blood cicadas were a little restless, and some even flew up, rushing towards Lin Xi, obviously discovering him, after all, the eyes of the cicadas are compound eyes, and the perspective of observation is much wider than that of humans, but these blood cicadas were soon slapped to the ground by the fluttering rain, and under such heavy rain, it is not a convenience to have wings.
"Haha, it's raining so well." Lin Xi was overjoyed, as long as this heavy rain was still falling, no matter how weird the blood cicadas were, as long as they couldn't get into Lin Xi's side, it would be in vain.
Lin Xi didn't retreat, swaggered and stood up, and raised his hand at the blood cicada, picking at them, maybe the blood cicada wouldn't understand Lin Xi's posture, but the food was right in front of them, and their little heads wouldn't think too much.
Hearing the sound of 'buzz', the blood cicadas on the back of the entire building scattered in all directions, and most of them rushed towards Lin Xi, and in the blink of an eye, there was only one color left in front of Lin Xi's eyes: blood red.
Lynsey was startled and turned to run, looking back as she ran.
There was a crackling sound on the ground, and the blood cicadas that flew to the front were mercilessly slapped to the ground by the rain, and the rain became a natural and powerful help for Linxi at this time, hundreds of thousands of blood cicadas did not even fly to more than ten meters, and they were all wiped out, all of them were slapped to the ground, of course, there were very few dead, they were still flapping their wings, but they seemed to be powerless.
"Haha." Lin Xi felt that it was refreshing, and he cleaned up so many blood cicadas without doing anything.
The little gun behind him and Zhang Xiaolei were also startled when the blood cicada flew out, thinking that this time it must be dead, and then the plot suddenly reversed, these blood cicadas were finished directly, Xiao Gun and Zhang Xiaolei ran to Lin Xi's side, and Xiao Gun praised him: "Brother Lin, you are too fierce, you dare to provoke so many blood cicadas." ”
"I know that the rain is a great disaster for them, so I deliberately seduced/lured them, and cleaned them up without a single soldier." Lin Xi laughed, his laughter was not concealed at all, he was not afraid of how many blood cicadas came now.
"Boss Lin, can you eat these cicadas?" Zhang Xiaolei stared at the blood cicada on the ground and said suddenly.
"Uh..."Hearing this question, Lin Xi was speechless, this Zhang Xiaolei is a foodie, right? The color of the blood cicadas is as red as blood, and it looks very weird, Lin Xi has no idea of eating them at all, but Zhang Xiaolei can think of eating them, how strong is her psychological quality?
Foodies outside the world don't understand at all, so Lin Xi honestly said: "I don't know if you can eat it, but if you want to eat it, you can wait for them to die and pick some back." ”
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaolei agreed quite crisply, it seems that she really wants to eat.
Lin Xi didn't care about her, he said to Xiao Gun: "It's raining heavily now, it's the best time to deal with the blood cicada, you go and tell everyone, if you encounter the blood cicada in the house, then run out quickly, I'll go around first, and when I encounter the blood cicada, I'll lure them out and let the heavy rain kill them." ”
"Okay Brother Lin, then you be careful."
Lin Xi nodded, and then said to Zhang Xiaolei: "You can go with Xiaogun and them, be careful yourself." ”
After the instructions, Lin Xi began to act, he is fast, and his hearing is super powerful, he can hear the sound of wings spreading nearby, in this way to find the blood cicada, it is really very convenient, running several streets in a row, Lin Xi found that the blood cicada here is really called a lot, the first hundreds of thousands to see are nothing, the blood cicadas he encountered these few times add up to at least millions.
The entire mist area seems to have become a nest of blood cicadas, the number of blood cicadas is endless, and countless have been hooked out and killed by Lin Xi, but there are countless left, and at the same time, Lin Xi also discovered another thing, that is, there are many parasites of blood cicadas, and they are diverse.
"Humans, rats, iron-limbed locusts, sandworms, giant maggots, wild dogs and wild cats with abnormal sizes, these blood cicadas are really not picky about parasites at all." In front of him is a shriveled sandworm skin, this sandworm was also hung on the vine before his death, although now even the skin is shriveled, but according to the length of the skin, this sandworm is at least forty meters long when it is alive, it is definitely a giant, but even such a giant is also hung here.
It's hard for Lin Xi to imagine how the blood cicada killed such a huge creature and hung it, you must know that the structure of the sandworm is not the same as that of humans, the body of the sandworm is almost all corrosive mucus, and it can also burrow into the ground, and the blood cicada can even kill them and hang up, which can indeed only be described as weird.
As Lin Xi went deeper and deeper into the fog area, Lin Xi hooked more than a hundred blood cicadas into the rain, and killed the blood cicadas with the power of the rain.
A huge tree appeared in front of him, and the body of this tree was so huge that it was like a wall, and Lin Xi couldn't see where the wall extended anyway.
It is said that such a large tree must be very tall, but this is not the case, this tree is not tall, about only more than 30 meters, but it has a lot of branches, dense, stretching in all directions, like the tentacles of an octopus, but the number is much more.
These branches passed through the various floors, covering all those floors, as if forming a huge and tight tree network, seeing these branches, Lin Xi suddenly remembered, aren't these branches just vines used to dry people? It turned out to be a branch of a tree, not a vine.
Then, Lin Xi's face changed greatly: "My grass, this Nima is a killing tree!" I thought that the blood cicada regarded living creatures as parasites, and dared to love that this tree was still absorbing the flesh and blood of those living creatures!! ”
Lin Xi didn't dare to move for a moment, and even held his breath, for fear of alarming the giant tree in front of him.
He now finally knows what is in the mist area, all of this is made by the giant tree in front of him, the blood cicada is more likely to be a creature parasitic on its body, this tree kills the prey through the blood cicada, and then uses a strange method to turn the living thing into a living corpse, and then enters the range of the giant tree, those living corpses are not hung by the blood cicada, but the giant tree in front of him, the giant tree is obviously a killing tree, but it is countless times larger than the one Lin Xi saw before.
"No, the killing tree has special abilities, all creatures that pass through its attack range will be attacked by it, it is said that I have already entered its attack range, if its branches were really moving, it should have attacked me a long time ago, but now it is motionless, is this tree not a killing tree?"
