Chapter 45: Digging a Pit
In the clear stream, there are streams, grass and trees, and Xiao Tan, like a small wonderland, but after all, it is the nest of the Heilan snake, and the fishy smell of the snake wandering in the middle greatly destroys this wonderland.
"Snake Cave. ”
At the edge of the pool, there is a black hole several people high, and the smell of fishy smells wafts from it. There is no doubt that it is the snake cave of the Black Lan Snake.
Bai Qi walked straight in.
Tick tock, tick tock!
The snake cave was deep, huge and pitch black, and the walls of the cave were unusually wet, with water dripping again and again. It seems that because of the frequent activities of the Heilan snake, the bottom of the snake cave is quite dry, unlike the moss on the stone walls on both sides, so Bai Qi walks very steadily.
The snake cave is deep.
Bai Qi went all the way.
As the hole got farther and farther away, the light faded. Fortunately, Bai Qi made a simple torch, otherwise, he could only grope in the dark.
The fishy smell is getting heavier and heavier.
The cave separates the light from the outside world.
Bai Qi held the torch and walked towards the depths of the snake cave according to the obscene light.
Firelight, dampness, silence.
In the snake cave, it seems that there is only this.
And Bai Qi was still bored and walked down.
As he walked, suddenly, a little clear red light reflected in Bai Qi's eyes.
"Soul Blood Vines?"
The distance was a bit far, and Bai Qi was a little unsure.
So, Bai Qi walked over according to that little red light.
Closer, closer.
Bai Qi saw that a plant with a blood-red agate trunk was clinging to the stone pillar, and its branches and leaves were crystal clear under the light of the fire.
"That's right, it's the Soul Blood Vine. ”
Seeing the soul blood vine with his own eyes, Bai Qi immediately believed that this thing was useful for condensing the soul line. Just by looking at the appearance of the soul blood vine, he could see that it was extraordinary, and Bai Qi felt it carefully, he could feel that there was a little bit of brilliance similar to soul power flowing in the soul blood vine.
Not fishy or smelly.
Standing in front of the soul blood vine, Bai Qi vaguely smelled a burst of fragrant fragrance again, Bai Qi sniffed carefully, and only smelled the aroma of the soul blood vine, but there was no fishy smell of the snake cave itself.
"It is said that the soul blood vine is rooted in flesh and blood and grows on the blood qi, what is the growth of this soul blood vine used as nourishment?"
"Could it be that this soul blood vine is rooted in the body of an aging Black Lan snake. ”
Bai Qi suppressed the impulse and didn't immediately pull out the soul blood vine, because, when he walked into the soul blood vine, an inexplicable throbbing rose in his heart.
Bai Qi took a step back, stared at the soul blood vine and thought, he wanted to figure out what made him uneasy.
"Yes, bones, there are no living bones underneath the Soul Blood Vine. ”
Bai Qi found something suspicious.
However, there are only doubts.
Except for suspicions, Bai Qi didn't see anything anymore.
"Do you want to pick?"
"The Soul Blood Vine itself is not dangerous, and that Black Lan Snake was also killed by me. It looks like there is no chance of an accident, and if I pull out the soul blood vine now, there shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Otherwise, wait, the throbbing in my heart has not abated at all, maybe something unforeseen has happened. ”
Bai Qi has always been a cautious person.
Otherwise, even if he had the talent of soul writing, he would not be able to survive to the end.
Bai Qi made a decision, then stepped aside and waited quietly. His gaze was not empty, and he kept staring at the soul blood vine.
A quarter of an hour later.
The silence of the snake cave was still so silent, except for the faint light of fire and the figure swaying on the rock wall.
"Could it be that I'm too worried?"
Bai Qi blinked, and glanced at the soul blood vine again in a little surprise. Then, he found that the unexplained throbbing in his heart seemed to have vanished.
Seeing that everything seemed to be a false alarm, Bai Qi thought about it, so he approached the soul blood vine again, one step at a time, until he could reach out and touch the soul blood vine, Bai Qi stopped again.
"Wait!"
The crystal clear leaves of the soul blood vine were in Bai Qi's hand, and Bai Qi might only move slightly before he could touch the soul blood vine.
However, Bai Qi still didn't stretch out his claws to the soul blood vine, he had to wait a little longer.
Bai Qi was very close to the soul blood vine, so Bai Qi lowered his head while waiting, his eyes were almost attached to the soul blood vine, and he observed it carefully.
Then, Bai Qi found that the soul blood vine not only had a trunk like a blood-red agate, but also a cyan vein spread within the branches, densely packed, like the blood veins in the human body. And inside the crystal clear branches and leaves, there is a viscous white liquid flowing, like colorless blood.
"Don't delay, let's dig this thing up. ”
Half an hour passed, and there was still no abnormality.
Bai Qi felt that he had wasted a lot of time.
If it was something else, Bai Qi would give it up, but this is a soul blood vine, something that can allow Bai Qi to quickly reach the perfection of the soul realm, so that he can take revenge in a few days, and this thing is right in front of him, just a little throbbing, how can Bai Qi let it go.
"Whew!"
Bai Qi exhaled lightly and began to dig this soul blood vine.
Yes, dig!
If this soul blood vine was directly cut down or pulled out, its rhizome would definitely be damaged, and most of its essence would definitely be lost. Therefore, Bai Qi chose to dig.
"Knock", "knock".
The sound of knocking stones, the sound of chiseling through the hard soil, reverberated in the snake cave, which seemed to add a bit of life to the silent snake cave.
Of course, Bai Qi was extremely cautious when digging up the soul blood vines. Because, when he was digging up the soul blood vines, the indescribable throbbing gushed out from the bottom of his heart from time to time.
Throbbing disturbs the state of mind.
Bai Qi was under great pressure in his heart.
But the movements of Bai Qi's hands were not disturbed, and in three or two clicks, a large pile of soil was dug up.
Of course, Bai Qi dared to bear the throbbing in his heart, and there was another point, the meaning conveyed in the throbbing, in his intuition, was not in danger of life.
"Nothing?"
"It's a little bit closer, and it's done right away, and when it's done, leave immediately. ”
The rhizome of the soul blood vine had already been dug out by Bai Qi with a large pit several meters deep.
Most of the other rhizome branches that had taken root in the ground had been dug up by Bai Qi, leaving only the main rhizome and a secondary root of the soul blood vine, which were still buried in the soil.
Seeing this, Bai Qi weighed one or two in his heart, and made a decision in his heart in an instant, as soon as he got the soul blood vine, he fled away, away from this strange snake cave.
Thinking to himself, Bai Qi was also diligent in his hands, and continued to dig down along the main rhizome.
Click!
Just as Bai Qi habitually dug down, a sound of stone rock cracking suddenly came in Bai Qi's ears.
"Not good. ”
Bai Qi's body didn't have time to react, so he saw that the deep pit he had dug collapsed with a bang.
"Three magic steps. ”
Bai Qi stepped into the air with three phantom steps, wanting to step out of this pit. It's a pity that the pit is deep, and Bai Qi didn't jump out of the pit he dug in the end.
