Chapter Seventy-Five: Another Space
Zhang Xiaohu noticed that when Chen Yi saw everyone, she showed a strange smile, not at all like she was trapped in an anthill, but like she was the owner here. He really couldn't understand what Chen Yi was doing, and he always felt that there was a hint of conspiracy in it.
Chen Yi looked at everyone and said, "There are a lot of people!" It's a pity that it came a little late! Now that this anthill is no longer in danger, there is no need to delay time here, let's go back as soon as possible! ”
Except that Liu Fang was a little excited when she saw that Chen Yi had nothing to do. Everyone else, like Zhang Xiaohu, is full of questions. These people are risking their lives, taking the initiative to participate in this rescue mission, and have faced so many dangers along the way, but why is it that the person who wants to be saved now has a relaxed look, and personally destroyed a giant anthill, and there is no minimum gratitude to everyone, this rescue operation is completely unnecessary, and everyone is a little depressed. Although it was not expressed, everyone was holding back a breath of anger in their hearts.
Chen Yi seemed to sense everyone's thoughts, but she didn't give any explanation, with the guards behind her, she crossed everyone and walked towards the exit, Liu Fang looked at everyone apologetically, nodded slightly, and hurriedly followed.
Zhao Zixuan was dissatisfied: "Damn! Lao Zhang, are we people playing tricks? ”
Yan Dacang didn't say anything, but there was some impatience in his eyes.
Zhang Xiaohu noticed everyone's strange emotions, and explained with a smile: "No matter what, we have completed the set task, and I really have to thank you all this time." I'll remember how you helped me! He himself was also a little depressed, this Chen Yi saw himself, he didn't talk to himself, this is completely different from his previous attitude, he decided to go back, he must find a chance to ask for an understanding.
"Doll, you don't need to say more, we all understand what's going on, no one will blame you!" Yan Cannon said, "Tell me what we should do next?" ”
King Peter looked at the frozen soldier ants around him and said, "I think it's hard to come in, let's go around here more, you must know that ants like to collect things the most, maybe we will have an unexpected harvest!" ”
Zhang Xiaohu thinks it's okay to let everyone go around in this cave to adjust their mood. Chen Yi said before that this anthill was over, but he was still a little worried, he didn't recommend everyone to disperse, in case there was any situation, it was too late to take care of it, it was better for everyone to go around here, you need to return to the camp quickly, this island is in danger, who knows if there will be other dangers, after replenishing fresh water and food, you should leave as soon as possible.
They followed the direction in which Chenyi appeared, and continued to walk forward, all the way were all frozen ants, in addition to the soldier ants and worker ants they had seen before, there were also two very rare species, one was brownish-red, the belly was fuller than the other ants, and there were wings on the back, but the wings had degenerated; There is also a type that has wings, a small round head, an underdeveloped upper jaw, and elongated antennae. King Peter said that both exist in the depths of the anthill, one is the female, that is, the reserve queen, who is called "princess" or "angel" by scientists, and the other is the male, whose function is to breed new ants with the queen, commonly known as "prince" or "mosquito", and dies soon after completing their functions.
"Looks like the queen is ahead!" King Peter ran forward excitedly.
"This guy, why are you so excited! Isn't it just a bug head, and it's not a! Yan Dacang scolded with a smile.
"Alas! Master Yan, there are still children here, don't talk nonsense! Master Wang hurriedly stopped Yan Dacang from continuing to talk nonsense, for fear that what he said would lead to the destruction of these children.
"Oh! Ha ha! Lao Wang, if you don't say it, I forgot that there are still these dolls! Okay, I'll stop talking! Yan Cannon sat on a frozen soldier ant, as if he didn't plan to go forward, he said: "You go in and see, I'm not interested in these insects, so I won't go in to see it, just rest here and wait for you to come out." ”
Master Wang said to Zhang Xiaohu: "Classmate Zhang Xiaohu, I won't go inside, I'll chat with Master Yan here." ”
In fact, Zhang Xiaohu didn't want to go any further, but King Peter had already run in, if he didn't go, Zhao Zixuan would definitely not go, Xu Haitao and Song Haozhe looked a little reluctant, in that case, King Peter would be alone in it, so he wouldn't be at ease. He had no choice but to say, "Then you can rest here, and we will come back immediately!" ”
"Wow! Check it out! "There was an exclamation from King Peter ahead, and it was supposed that the queen ant had been found in front.
Zhang Xiaohu and the others walked a few steps quickly, and soon entered a huge cave, the temperature inside was very low, there was a huge queen ant seven or eight meters long, the head of this queen ant was about the size of other giant ants, mainly the abdomen was particularly huge, accounting for eighty or ninety percent of the body.
The queen ant is the king of the ant world, laying eggs, reproducing offspring, and ruling the colony family. King Peter stood beside the queen, looking up and down with a torch in his hand.
"Come and see, the queen's belly has been opened." King Peter pointed with a torch,
Zhang Xiaohu and the others found that a huge opening had opened on the side of the queen's abdomen, revealing the milky yellow liquid inside.
"Damn, it's disgusting, I don't want to watch it!" Zhao Zixuan turned his head and walked to the other side.
"Boy, the queen's belly seems to be connected to the ground. This opening seems to lead to the bottom! Suddenly, King Peter cried out.
When Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he endured his nausea, and by the light of the fire, he found that it was actually not as exaggerated as King Peter said, there was originally a passage on the ground of this room, but it had been pressed under the abdomen by the queen ant, and this time the abdomen was broken through a total of two openings, which led to the passage below.
The passage is made of metal, glowing silvery in the faint glow of the fire.
"Lao Zhao, come here!" Zhang Xiaohu looked at this familiar scene and suddenly thought of something. Could there be another mysterious room underneath this passage, which will speed up the flow of time?
"Could it be down here?" Zhao Zixuan also noticed the difference in the passage, and he and Zhang Xiaohu also thought of it together.
"Quite possibly!"
"Then let's not go down!" Zhao Zixuan was already apprehensive, and he didn't want to lose time anymore.
"What are you talking about?" Xu Haitao was confused and couldn't help asking.
Zhang Xiaohu said: "Classmate Xu, let me tell you, this may be a special place, once you enter, time will pass quickly unconsciously. For example, if you stay inside for a few minutes, a few days may pass outside, and if you take a few days, seven or eight years will pass outside! ”
Xu Haitao exclaimed: "There is still such a place! He looked at Zhang Xiaohu and suddenly said, "Ah! I understand! Are you...?"
Zhang Xiaohu nodded and stretched out two fingers, "Twice!" Eight years have passed outside, seven days have passed outside, and now I am horrified when I see this passageway! ”
Xu Haitao's face was incredulous, "Twice!" Oh my God! Then I don't dare to go in, in case I go down, in the past few years outside, Zheng Lulu will definitely be snatched away by others! ”
"That's all you have to say!" Zhao Zixuan mocked on the side: "Then what's so good about Zheng Lulu?" Sticking the master upside down, the master can't even look down on it! ”
"You're here to be sour! Zheng Lulu will take a fancy to you, don't be beautiful! If Zhang Xiaohu said so, I would still believe it! Xu Taotao laughed.
Zhang Xiaohu looked at the passage, and the two energy pillars held by Chenyi and the others just now appeared in his mind, and suddenly had a thought, he said, "I want to go down and have a look!" ”
"Lao Zhang, you are crazy, you know that there may be something like that below, you are still..." Zhao Zixuan suddenly paused and said, "Did you think of something?" ”
"Just now, Chenyi and the others took two energy pillars, one of which was obtained from that plant island before. And what about the other one? Could it be that it was taken from underneath, and after the energy pillar was taken away, would the room below lose its original function? These are all speculations of mine, so I'm going to verify them. ”
