Chapter 333: The Little Flower Essence Nerita
Not only the Green Dwarf tribe in the center of the earth, who worship the crew as 'gods', is fighting against the fire monsters, but also other green dwarf tribes in the center of the earth.
If you go around a random crater, you will see the corpses of many green dwarves in the center of the earth, all of whom have been killed by fire monsters.
That adds up to hundreds of thousands.
However, the fire monsters also have casualties, and although the green dwarves in the center of the earth have no tactics, they will shoot fire monsters in a volley of arrows, although the probability is very small.
The crew couldn't figure out why the Green Dwarf would act like a suicide, and no one understood.
However, the answer seems to be revealed soon, because one day, the crew noticed that the brightness of the underground world had dimmed, and when they looked up, it turned out that some of the 'little sun' above their heads no longer emitted light.
"I guess this is a special mechanism, when we came, it may be in a long 'daylight' here, rich in resources, which can support the survival of the green dwarves in the center of the earth, but now, it should be in the 'polar night', the resources have become less, and the green dwarves in the center of the earth know that they can't feed so many people, so they simply start a war and die." Zhuge Liang guessed.
Whether the guess is right or not, the underground world is indeed getting darker and darker, and the number of 'little suns' extinguishing is increasing.
Temperatures are also getting colder.
Then the crew found out that the green dwarves who had never slept began to dig burrows underground, which meant that the crew knew very well that the green dwarves were not sleeping, but that they did not have time, and now, as the underground world fell into darkness, they were going to sleep, or rather, hibernating.
The Green Dwarves dug up the cave and buried themselves in it, and the crew secretly dug the cave to find that they were indeed asleep.
When the last 'little sun' was extinguished, the underground world fell into complete darkness, and there was no light at all, and I couldn't see my fingers.
At the same time, the temperature has dropped to minus 20 degrees Celsius.
All kinds of plants have withered, the crater has solidified the magma, and the fire monster must have burrowed into the ground, never to be seen again.
The underworld is lifeless.
"I wonder how long a polar night like this lasts?"
"It's going to be quite a long time."
"Can the Green Dwarves of the Center of the Earth last that long?"
"I guess I can, but I'm sure a fair share of them will die."
When they entered the underworld again, the crew spotted some lights, which were moving, flickering, and fast.
"Looks like a flower essence? Are they still active? ”
During the day, it was difficult to catch the flower essence, but now that it is the polar night, the flower essence can shine brightly, but the crew can start to their heart's content.
Soon, some flower spirits were caught.
These flower essences are really small and small, their bodies are only two or three centimeters, like people who have shrunk hundreds of times, they don't seem to be male and female, their whole bodies are red, and they are still transparent, and you can even see their internal organs.
They have three pairs of wings and can fly quickly through the air.
Because of his small size, his voice is pitifully small.
They can understand the language of the Green Dwarves in the center of the Earth, but it is quite difficult to communicate, as they seem to be very timid, and will curl up their wings and retract their bodies into them.
A dozen flower spirits were brought back to the ship, and the crew set them up in the ship's farm, where there were some plants.
Although the flower spirits were afraid of the crew, they were quite adaptable, and after the crew let them go, they quickly built their own houses on these plants.
Of course, these houses are pitifully small, the size of two fingernails, but they are extremely exquisite.
For these little guys, the crew actually likes it, after all, in addition to the wings, the flower spirits really look like people who have shrunk hundreds of times, and they look much more beautiful than humans, each of them is a Barbie doll.
It's Zhuge Liang who has a headache, originally it was a good thing that the flower essence was a wise being, but his headache was that they were intelligent beings.
In Zhuge Liang's opinion, these flower essences are actually quite valuable for research, if there is no wisdom, then Zhuge Liang has no psychological pressure to study, and now, you can't pull the flower essences onto the dissecting table, right?
It's cruel.
"Talk to them more and ask about the underworld."
"They're too timid to talk to us now."
"Depressed."
Huang Yueying works tirelessly to take care of the flower essence every day, in addition to Huang Yueying, the female crew members also like to go, women, there is almost no resistance to this small and cute thing.
A few days later, Huang Yueying had a goal.
"Hey, little one, come here, eat honey." Huang Yueying hooked her hand at a small flower essence.
This little flower essence is a little more daring than other flower essences, and after a few days of contact, he is no longer too afraid of Huang Yueying.
Hearing Huang Yueying's shout, Xiaohuajing looked from the small house and saw that it was Huang Yueying, so she flew out and landed on Huang Yueying's fingers.
Huang Yueying picked up the spoon, the spoon was mixed honey, there was no nectar on the boat, only honey, but the little flower essence seemed to like it a lot.
He gave Xiaohuajing a thin tube, and Xiaohuajing used the thin tube to suck the honey in the spoon, and his appetite was not large, and a few drops of mixed honey water were enough for him to drink to his heart's content.
After Xiaohuajing drank the honey, she wanted to go back, Huang Yueying hurriedly said: "Don't go, my name is Huang Yueying, what about you, can you talk to me?" ”
Xiaohuajing flapped her wings and looked at Huang Yueying, saying that eating people with a soft mouth and short hands is very reasonable, Huang Yueying has also fed him for several days, and it is estimated that he is embarrassed.
It fell back on Huang Yueying's fingers, her wings wrapped her body around, and the little flower spirit tilted her head to look at Huang Yueying.
Huang Yueying was overjoyed in her heart, and said carefully and softly, so as not to scare the little flower essence: "Little guy, what's your name?" ”
"Nerita, my name is Nerita, and I'm huge, huge, huge." Xiaohua said in a delicate voice.
"Nerita? What a nice name, why do you call me Juju Ju ”
"Because you're huge, huge."
"Well, forget it, you might as well call me a giant."
"Giants? Well, giants. Nerita agreed: "Giant, will you let us go back?" ”
"Do you want to go back?"
"Well, we want to go back, you guys are terrible."
"Actually, we're all quite kind, don't you see what we don't do to you? We asked you to come here because we just have something to ask you. Huang Yueying thought for a while.
This time Huang Yueying didn't pay attention, her voice and tone were obviously a little louder, and to Nerita, it was like thunder and wind.
Nerita's eyes obviously lit up with little stars, because he was dizzy and fell from Huang Yueying's hand in a whirlwind.
Huang Yueying was startled, and quickly reached out to hold Nerita up: "It's okay, Nerita..."
"Giants... You're so scary, I'm going back, I'm not talking to you..."Nellita's tears flowed. 8)
