Chapter 281: Wine Paste and Fruit
Song Rui planned to take the Snow Fish King back and come out again to find the Ice Wine Spring.
Unexpectedly, when he dragged the Snow Fish King away, he found that there was a hole behind the Snow Fish. The entrance to the cave is not big, and the body of the Snow Fish King just blocks it.
There are countless ice caves here, and I don't know how many forks in the road there are, and there is nothing unusual about an ice cave here, what caught Song Rui's attention was that he saw mud and rocks in this ice cave. Because of the thick ice layer in the ice cave, Song Rui couldn't see clearly, he stretched out his fist to smash the ice some of it, and after a closer look, it was indeed a rock formation.
"In other words, it's not ice going down from here, but officially going underground?" Song Rui looked at the ice for a while, and then looked up at the ice above his head, and was amazed. He estimated by his senses that he had penetrated at least a few hundred meters vertically in this ice cave, and this hundreds of meters of solid ice would take many years to form, and the cold of the extreme north could be seen.
Song Rui glanced at the Snow Fish King, and then at the ice cave, he was in a bit of a dilemma, it was impossible for him to drag such a big prey to explore the ice cave, but he didn't feel at ease when he put the Snow Fish King here, what if this thing woke up? Even if you don't wake up, what if some other predator passes by and swallows it?
At this time, the small fruit in his pocket arched, and a head emerged from Song Rui's pocket. This fruit is so timid that it doesn't even dare to risk its head near NEO, for fear that it will be swallowed.
"Little fruit, what's wrong?" Song Rui took out the memory fruit and put it in the palm of his hand, saw it sniff in the direction of the ice cave, and then grabbed Song Rui's fingers with two leaves, as if he wanted him to enter the ice cave, and a trace of longing flashed in his big wet eyes.
It is also strange to say that this fruit likes a humid and shady environment very much, but in this environment of minus 40 degrees, there is not much discomfort, and the fruits and leaves have no signs of frostbite, so that Song Rui can only sigh again, there is no wonder in the world.
"You want to go in?" Song Rui asked, Song Rui sniffed the air carefully, he didn't smell anything, there was only cold air in his mouth and nose, it was extremely cold, and it was cold that made people's olfactory organs numb.
Xiao Guozi nodded, and the leaf holding Song Rui's finger increased his strength a little more, as if he was urging him.
"Okay, okay......" Song Rui reluctantly put the fruit on his shoulder, "Then let's go and explore." ”
Looking back at the Snow Fish King, this thing has no signs of awakening, it is a very powerful beast itself, and I can only pray that this thing's dominance in this area is strong enough, and it is best to let other creatures not dare to approach.
The ice cave is oblique downward, and the angle is getting steeper and steeper, although there is no fork in the middle, this ice cave is very long, and it seems that there is no end, but this may just be Song Rui's illusion.
Although the temperature around us is still below zero, it is getting higher and higher at a perceptible rate. The air also becomes a little wetter, and in extremely low temperatures, water molecules change directly from gaseous to solid, so it is generally very dry in extremely cold places, even if there is ice. The increase in air humidity also proves that the temperature is gradually rising, which Song Rui and Xiaoguozi are aware of.
After walking for about an hour, the ice cave was finally no longer in a static state, there was a fork in the road in front of him, Xiaoguozi was obviously a lot more excited, jumped a few times on Song Rui's shoulder, and pointed to a fork in the road to signal Song Rui to enter.
Song Rui sniffed into the air, "Oh! It's the smell of wine! ”
Song Rui stepped into the fork in the road on the left in a few steps, and his entire vision was bright, and he entered a huge underground cave.
The main reason is that there is a hot spring in the center of the cave, and the sound of gurgling water is heard, accompanied by bursts of moisture and the rich aroma of wine.
"Ice Wine Spring? Belch...... Jiuquan? Song Rui thought it was the ice wine spring that Karma asked him to find, but when he saw the bubbling spring, he changed his words.
The memory fruit was very excited, and it couldn't wait to jump off Song Rui's shoulder and rush to the steaming spring.
"Hey, do you want to be cooked?" Song Rui shouted, "That's boiling!" ”
It turned out that he was worried in vain, and the Memory Fruit was not interested in the spring, and the place where it rushed was the rock next to the spring. The rock is one meter square, covered in green, in the shape of a depression with four sides high and low in the middle, soaked in the Jiuquan, there is a white gelatinous thing inside, I don't know what it is.
The Memory Fruit plunged headlong into the white colloid, swimming back and forth a few times, revealing an expression of great enjoyment.
Song Rui: "......"
Song Rui didn't drink...... Well, of course it's not because there's no one here to accompany him, he has other things to do right now, and it wouldn't be good if he went crazy with alcohol.
Song Rui explored the entire cave, confirmed that there was no danger here, and left after a few words of explanation to the memory fruit that was sunk in the colloidal body and couldn't extricate himself, this is a good place, he plans to take Kama and Nini over.
Karma took a closer look at the white colloid, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be a natural wine cream." ”
Song Rui was carefully observing the wine cream, the memory fruit was enjoying in the wine cream, and Nini was thinking about the problem, but they didn't pay attention to the inexplicable glimmer in Kama's eyes when he looked at the wine cream and the memory fruit.
The color of the natural wine paste is thick and white, although it is paste, it still maintains the characteristics of a liquid, smells strong, is cold to the touch, you can imagine the cold and sweet in the mouth, Song Rui swallowed his saliva.
"Song Rui, the memory fruit has taken root in the wine cream, you'd better not touch that thing." Karma warned Song Rui, but did not explain.
"......" Song Rui said that he was very unconvinced, why couldn't he drink such a delicious thing in front of him?!
"The medicinal properties of the memory fruit have been partially integrated into the wine cream...... Of course, you can still drink it if I deal with it, but it will take time. Kama took out her knife and began to deal with the Snowfish King.
"Okay......" Song Rui pursed his lips, although he was a little dissatisfied with this explanation, he still trusted Karma very much.
Ever since Nini and Song Rui finished discussing the question of God, he had kept his brows furrowed, as if he was puzzled by something, and he was indifferent to such a delicious ointment and wine spring in front of him.
"Bones, pens, are they?" Before Karma could deal with the snow fish, Nini finally reacted and said to Song Rui.
"Pen? Yes, do you use paper? Song Rui took out a pen and a small notebook from his backpack and handed them to Nini, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Remember, language." Nini took the pen, studied it a little, and raised his hand to write two words on the paper.
