Chapter 523: The Real Reason
The mountains and forests were full of animal corpses, and the smell of decay filled the air, and as soon as Chu Yuchen took a step, he accidentally kicked a rotting corpse, so he had to take a step back.
As far as the eye can see, this area is full of animal carcasses, but they are all scattered, and it is not convenient to observe if you want to attract burial beetles.
Looking at Yang Yunlong, who was standing not far away, the two glanced at each other, Chu Yuchen instructed him to gather these corpses together, and then continued to walk around.
When he walked back again, he found that there was already a place to set foot, and Yang Yunlong also threw the corpse he was carrying into the corpse push, and there were no messy corpses nearby.
"King Mu, let's do it." Wiping the filth from his hands on his clothes, he looked up at Chu Yuchen who had just walked over, and then followed his eyes to the pile of corpses on the ground.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Chu Yuchen nodded with satisfaction, slowly raised his head, his vision was blocked by the woods, and sighed lightly: "Enough, now you just need to wait quietly." ”
The two gradually moved away from the pile of corpses, and came to the side of the small hill not far away, just as Song Yunshu came and saw the pile of corpses in front of them.
"This efficiency, General Yang is really hardworking." After that, he raised his eyes and looked at Chu Yuchen, "Just wait." ”
Chu Yuchen nodded, and Song Yunshu pursed his lips: "I'll go and inspect the neighborhood to see if I can find the reason why the animals are running wild." ”
"Proceed with caution."
At the moment when Song Yunshu turned around, Chu Yuchen spoke softly, but did not look up at her.
Both of them paused, but Yang Yunlong smiled secretly, attracting Song Yunshu's attention, and she waved her hand: "Got it." Then only the two of them were left with a back.
After she left, Chu Yuchen suddenly chuckled, Yang Yunlong also looked at him and asked him what he was laughing at, he just shook his head, and then continued to squat.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of rustling was finally heard on the ground, and when I looked up, I saw a group of black and brown intertwined beetles crawling towards the animal carcass.
But this did not make Chu Yuchen happy, he frowned, which made Yang Yunlong even more confused, he looked at the pile of corpses, and then looked at Chu Yuchen.
Looking at the wrinkled brows, Yang Yunlong finally couldn't help but ask: "King Mu, this insect is also here, why are you still so sad." ”
"These bugs are useless." He seemed to be talking to himself.
"Why? Aren't we just waiting for them? ”
"We want larvae, and they're all adults." After speaking, he sighed a little frustratedly, "Keep waiting, it won't go on like this." ”
There was silence in the mountains and forests, and occasionally a few bird calls were heard, so that the sound of Song Yunshu stepping on broken branches was very clear.
She walked through the woods, bending down from time to time to check the ground before moving forward.
She couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, but she had to keep looking.
There are no animals here, but the trees are more lodging, and these trees are basically broken.
She stepped over a log in the middle of the road, looked back at the ground, and frowned slightly, such a big destruction situation must have been an earthquake.
Just as she was thinking, a hare suddenly burst out, and Song Yunshu hurriedly retreated so that she was not hit by the hare.
The animals in this area seemed even stranger, and she thought so, and took a step back, and felt that something was not quite right.
When he suddenly felt the unevenness of the ground, Song Yunshu squatted down and lifted the leaves that covered the ground with his hands, and saw a slight fault.
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she continued to look along the line, and sure enough, there was a slight fault in the area, and it seemed that the animals were running wild because of the movement of the earth's crust.
Just looking at this sign, it was a long time ago, and it shouldn't happen anymore.
The animals should gradually return to normal, and her task has been accomplished.
Straightening up, she looked in the direction she had just come from, returned along the same path, and saw two people squatting quietly there in the distance.
It's been so long, and these two people are still here, and it seems that there is no progress.
Yang Yunlong looked at the corpses and walked around a little impatiently, while Chu Yuchen leaned against a tree and quietly watched Yang Yunlong walk back and forth.
"Looking at you like this, it's not going well." She quickened her pace and began to talk to them briskly.
The two also shook their heads, and Yang Yunlong stopped and stood there with his back to the pile of corpses.
"There were many burial beetles, but they were all adults." Chu Yuchen whispered, Song Yunshu nodded, walked to his side, and a rare sadness appeared on her face.
Seeing that she was not very happy, Chu Yuchen turned his head to look at her: "Not smooth?" ”
But Song Yunshu just smiled indifferently: "I'm much smoother than you, and I've already found out the reason." She tilted her head, then smiled again.
Listening to her words, Chu Yuchen also nodded, and then fell into a terrible silence, and Yang Yunlong didn't want to speak casually.
So, silence pervaded the three of them.
It wasn't until the sound of rustling sounded again that they all looked at the pile of corpses, but unfortunately another group of adults was attracted to it.
"So what's the reason?" Chu Yuchen opened his mouth, breaking the silence, and Yang Yunlong also looked at Song Yunshu, wanting to know the answer.
She suddenly remembered this and gestured with her hand slightly.
"Crustal movement." As he spoke, he paused and looked at the two of them, "It's the ground that is moving, which brings a massive vibration and affects the survival of the animals." ”
The two also retracted their gazes, and then there was a short silence before Chu Yuchen spoke: "Are you going back to the capital?" ”
She thought about it for a moment, then shook her head and kicked the pebble at her feet, "I'll stay." ”
Both of them looked at her in confusion, but she looked fearless, her eyes shifted to the pile of corpses not far away, and she thought about it again.
"General Yang will return to the capital to restore his life." She seemed to have thought for a long time before saying it, but it didn't attract the other two to mind.
She breathed a sigh of relief, looked at them again, inadvertently glanced at Chu Yuchen, and coughed lightly, as if she wanted to use this to strengthen her courage.
"I'm curious about what the larvae of this burial beetle are like."
That's what she said, but she still glanced at Chu Yuchen on the side, Yang Yunlong seemed to understand something, and immediately understood, and didn't say anything more, so he left first.
The two of them were left alone and squatting.
Chu Yuchen saw Yang Yunlong walking away before he spoke: "Just curious about the burial beetle?" ”
In an instant, it hit Song Yunshu's heart, she pursed her lips, then closed her eyes and thought for a while, then quietly opened a slit in her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Okay, the main reason is the burial beetle, and secondary," she closed her eyes again, her voice lowering a little, "I just want to be with you." ”
Chu Yuchen looked at her like this, and also held back a smile.
