Chapter Twenty-Four: The Lighthouse Ghost Jellyfish

Li Zhibao fell into deep thought, Zhou Kesheng didn't say a word, Yu Tingting and Xiao Ling were all turning their brains rapidly.

More than 30 people present were all thinking and looking for answers.

Suddenly, Guo Zhenwei exclaimed: "I remember, I have studied marine life for so many years, and there is one creature that is very similar to us now. ”

"What creature?" Li Zhibao hurriedly raised his head.

Guo Zhenwei said: "It's the lighthouse ghost jellyfish." ”

"Lighthouse ghost jellyfish?" The crowd looked at each other.

Guo Zhenwei nodded busily and said: "This lighthouse jellyfish is a very small jellyfish, the body is bell-shaped, about four to five millimeters in diameter, the body is transparent, and the red digestive system can be seen, like a lighthouse, hence the name." Ordinary jellyfish die after sexual reproduction, but lighthouse jellyfish can return to the polyp form from an adult again, and theoretically speaking, as long as they keep repeating this process, they can renew themselves and gain an infinite lifespan, so they are also called immortal jellyfish. The lighthouse jellyfish are divided into short-stemmed lighthouse jellyfish, long-stemmed lighthouse jellyfish, lighthouse box jellyfish, and the rarest lighthouse ghost jellyfish. ”

"The diameter of this lighthouse ghost jellyfish is less than 0.1 mm, and the human eye cannot see them, and it is also the only parasitic among the lighthouse jellyfish, and even other jellyfish are parasitized by their mothers, and now there is a view that other lighthouse jellyfish are parasitized by this ghost jellyfish, which has the ability to rejuvenate, but because this lighthouse ghost jellyfish is very rare, I know that there is not much information about them, but it has only been discovered over the years, and the specific has not been confirmed."

Wang Haiyang lost his voice and said, "Could it be that we are in this situation because we are parasitized by this lighthouse ghost jellyfish?" ”

Everyone's hearts are cold, if what Guo Zhenwei said is true, there are really strange and terrifying parasitic jellyfish like lighthouse ghost jellyfish in this world, they parasitize into the human body, and their terrible ability makes the human body appear repeatedly aging, and then rejuvenate.

Wang Lei slapped his knee and said: "I also thought of a record in the ancient book, which said that in ancient times, there was a mountain of green hills, and its yin abyss had things that could not be named. This account says that there is an abyss pool under a green hill, and there is a kind of water in the pool? The appearance of the foreign body cannot be described, but if people come into contact with it, they will quickly change from young to old, and then rejuvenate, this phenomenon is not very similar to what we are encountering now? ”

Zhou Kesheng said in a deep voice: "Whether this is called a lighthouse ghost jellyfish or water?, in short, the question now is if we really get parasitic jellyfish or come into contact with this water?, but when did we come into contact with it?" And how to crack it? ”

Guo Zhenwei said: "Lighthouse ghost jellyfish only live in seawater...... Did we come into contact with it when we were crossing that stream? As for how to crack the ......" he said this, his face became more and more pale, obviously not knowing the way to solve it.

Everyone was disappointed and hurriedly looked at Wang Lei.

Wang Lei also shook his head with a pale face, and said, "There is no record in the ancient books that if you come into contact with this water? How to treat it later. ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt that their eyes were black for a while, whether they were really parasitic by the lighthouse ghost jellyfish or they were in contact with the water recorded in this ancient book, this situation is definitely not good, no one knows if they will be able to wake up again if they pass out again, and the time left for them is getting less and less.

"We went back to the top of the mountain, and I thought the answer must be in the bamboo slips." Yu Tingting suddenly stood up and was the first to rush to the top of the mountain again.

"Sister Ting, did you think of something?" Xiao Ling hurriedly chased after him.

"Let's think about the last record of the bamboo slips, we came here and encountered such a thing, did Xu Fu encounter a similar thing when he climbed this black mountain? That's why he left bamboo slips and sealed them in clay pots to warn the world. Yu Tingting said as she rushed up.

The others set off for their backs.

Wang Lei said loudly: "Yes, Xu Fu said that he encountered an extremely terrifying thing, it must be that they also came into contact with this water?" Or parasitized by the lighthouse ghost jellyfish, this seems to be rejuvenation, so rejuvenated, like immortality, but this immortality is cursed, and the last sentence recorded must be the way to rescue. ”

Everyone was not stupid, and when they understood, they all rushed to the top of the mountain.

Li Zhibao said in a deep voice: "The last sentence of the bamboo slip is 'those who are destined, nourished by blood, vermiculite can be solved', this fateful person should refer to the person who later obtained the bamboo slips, Xu Fu had already guessed that if there were people who could climb to the top of the mountain later, they would definitely encounter such an accident, and the latter sentence 'nourished with blood, vermiculite can be solved' is not difficult to understand." ”

Hu Shengzhe said: "Vermiculite can be solved, do you mean that the situation we are encountering now, vermiculite can be solved?" But what is this vermiculite? ”

Zhou Kesheng said: "Let's go, when we get to the top of the mountain, you may know, since this Xu Fu left a bamboo slip to warn us, maybe he left a way to crack it in that crockpot." ”

They stopped talking, and ran up the hill as best they could.

At the beginning, everyone was shocked by this sudden aging change, and they were confused, but now they calm down, think about the cause and effect, and run to the mountain at full speed, but unfortunately seeing the top of the mountain in sight, everyone has signs of aging again.

Soon, Li Zhibao and Zhou Kesheng couldn't support it at first, they aged to the extreme, and their whole body strength seemed to be drained, and they fell down, falling into a coma, and they had no breath, like death.

The others were also unable to escape this fate, and they fell one after another.

Only Xiao Ling ran the fastest, climbed to the top of the mountain alone, watched everyone behind him fall down one after another, couldn't help sighing, hugged the clay pot containing bamboo slips that had been placed aside by everyone before, and then walked towards the place where everyone fell.

After that, he carefully put the crockpot down, and finally could not hold it anymore, and passed out.

"Hopefully I'll wake up again next time." Xiao Ling thought silently and lost consciousness.

When Xiao Ling came to consciousness again, he still couldn't move, couldn't open his eyes, and could only feel the breath of life in his body slowly recovering.

But Xiao Ling could clearly feel that every time the recovery of his breath became slower and weaker than before.

In the process of weakening and rejuvenating, their own essence and blood vitality are constantly depleted, and they will eventually die due to excessive weakness and exhaustion.

After regaining some strength, Xiao Ling sat up, and the other people around him also woke up one after another.
