Chapter 40: The Ice Silkworm Appears
The centipede was in pain, and immediately shook its body and twisted wildly, half of its body was in the Shenmu Wang Ding at this time, and half of its body was held in the mouth of the giant toad.
"The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, but I don't know who will be the yellow finch next", Bai Fan secretly sneered, but he didn't care in his heart, he just had to wait to be the last hunter, no matter how many yellow finches and eagles there were in front of him, it was in vain.
After a while, the frequency of Mu Ding's shaking gradually decreased, and after the centipede trembled for a while, there was no movement, and it was actually poisoned by the giant toad.
The women knew that Bai Fan was looking for the ice silkworm, and although the centipede and giant toad in front of them were both strange and poisonous species, they were obviously far from the image of the ice silkworm, so they didn't act rashly and were still waiting quietly.
The giant toad dragged the centipede's body out of the wooden ding, threw it aside, leaned under the hole in the belly of the ding, inhaled the aroma emitted from it, half-squinted his eyes, looked very intoxicated, and drilled his head into the hole for a long time.
Xu is because the breath of this snow-spotted ink toad is too strong, after more than a quarter of an hour, there is no poison coming back, it is okay with everyone, the patience of people who practice martial arts will not be bad, but Huijing began to get anxious at this time, whether the corpse worm on his body can be solved or not, it all depends on whether this operation is successful. If he couldn't find the ice silkworm, with his understanding of Bai Fan, it was hard to say whether he would detoxify himself, he didn't dare to gamble on this kind of life-threatening thing, he just hoped that everything would go well, and among the people present, he was more eager than Bai Fan to find the ice silkworm.
I don't know how long it took, just when the fragrance in the Shenmu King Ding began to fade, everyone suddenly heard a swishing sound, which came from the snow above, and looked up, only to see two thin snow waves rushing from the top of the mountain, as if something was drilling under the snow, Bai Fan's heart was suddenly shocked, this speed was almost similar to that of the top martial arts master, and he secretly compared it and found that no one else present could keep up with this speed except for himself.
It wasn't until they rushed out of the edge of the snow that the two things showed their true form, two silkworms that were as white as jade and nearly three inches long, and the grass and trees everywhere they passed were a scorched black trace, and then covered with a layer of frost, more than twice as powerful as Huijing's one in terms of speed and cold.
At this time, there was a low sound from Huijing's sleeve, and he took out a small gourd the size of a palm from it, which kept shaking in his hand, and something was rushing inside! He stretched out his hand and wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead to Bai Fan's side and whispered: "This silkworm is only afraid that it feels the breath of the same kind, and it is making noise inside, but fortunately, the poor monk stuffed a lot of cotton and grass wool in it in order to isolate its cold, and the movement was much smaller, so it did not alarm that side." ”
"Silence!"
Bai Fan glanced at him, turned his head and continued to look at the two ice silkworms, the giant toad also found that danger was coming, and came out from under the wooden ding, staring at the rapidly rushing ice silkworms with both eyes, and made a low and strong "quack" sound, the sound was very urgent.
The ice silkworm did not mean to stop at all, but the speed was a little faster, and when the distance was only more than a zhang, the toad violently spewed out a mouthful of venom at the two ice silkworms, and he jumped up immediately, more than two meters high.
But the two ice silkworms also followed the body and bowed, almost at the same time bounced into the air, the speed was fast, like two white arrows shot at the toad, as soon as it passed through, the ice silkworm fell gently to the ground in an instant, crawling towards the wooden ding, and the toad behind it fell to the ground with a bang, flowing red mixed with dark green liquid, and a closer look found that the eyeballs in its eyes had disappeared, leaving two blood holes.
The ice silkworms spun around under the Shenmu King Ding, and did not drill into it, as if the aroma inside had gradually disappeared, and after a while, they turned around and climbed to the top of the mountain, as fast as the wind.
"Chase!"
Bai Fan shouted softly, and the person was already shooting out like a sharp arrow, and chased after the ice silkworm.
The women and Huijing moved when they heard the wind, but Bai Fan and the ice silkworm were too fast, and they were already more than ten zhang away in a moment, and only a vague back could be seen in the distance, but fortunately, Bai Fan left footprints on the snow, and they followed the footprints to chase them, but they were not afraid of losing them.
The two ice silkworms found that someone was chasing them behind them, and they were a little faster, and they appeared three or four feet away in the blink of an eye, and their whole bodies were covered in the snow as if they were teleporting.
"Run, run as fast as possible."
A smile appeared at the corner of Bai Fan's mouth, in the Vulture Palace, he had initially practiced the "Ling Bo Micro Step", and the light skill was a level higher than before, although the two silkworms were amazingly fast at the moment, they still did not reach his limit.
chased and fled, the ice silkworm took Bai Fan to walk left and right between the trees and stone forests, during which they even stopped twice to hide in the trees and sneak attack Bai Fan, Rao is Bai Fan dodged with Ling Bo's subtle footwork, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this ice silkworm is so cunning.
Bai Fan didn't know what to do with them, he just kicked out a few stones with his fingers and taught them a lesson, and then the two ice silkworms didn't dare to play tricks anymore, and obediently buried their heads and ran for their lives.
After a quarter of an hour, Bai Fan finally saw a cave in front of him, the entrance of the cave was blocked by two big stones, only a thin slit remained, and the ice silkworm swished and drilled through, Bai Fan stopped in front of the big stone, thought about it and did not rush in, but waited for Sishu and Huijing and others in the same place, he thought that since he had found the lair of the ice silkworm, he didn't have to worry anymore, and when everyone arrived at the entrance of the cave, they would lay a net of heaven and earth, in short, they must not be allowed to escape.
After a long time, everyone ran over out of breath, and Mei Jian said while looking at him carefully: "Honorable...... Are you alright, Lord? ”
"What can I do, just two little worms", Bai Fan pointed to the boulder at the entrance of the cave and said: "They have gone into the hole, their nest should be inside, Mei Jian, Lan Jian, you are careful to lead people to guard the entrance of the cave, cloth into a sword wall, once an ice silkworm rushes out of the hole, just force it back into the hole, don't hurt their lives in case of nothing." ”
Mei Jian and Lan Jian clasped their fists and saluted: "Yes, the slave and maid respectfully obey the name of the lord." ”
Bai Fan nodded and said to Zhu Jian and Ju Jian, "You two take the rest of the people with me to go into the cave to explore." ”
The two of them led the rest of the people to lead the order in unison, and at this time, everyone looked serious, knowing that at the critical moment, no one dared to miss the great event of the Lord because of their own mistakes.
However, at this time, a discordant voice said, "Gong...... Childe, you don't look at the little monk...... You don't have to go in, my martial arts are low, and I walk slowly with a fat body, and I can only help when I go in, so it's better to stay outside and keep an eye on the girls, I can't do anything else, my eyesight is still good, hehe...... Hehe......".
All the women glared at Huijing angrily, in their opinion, it was his blessing to be able to do things for the lord, and this person dared to refuse, which was really an unforgivable sin.
Bai Fan nodded and said, "Okay, let it be, anyway, your task has been completed." ”
Then after everyone was ready, Bai Fan slapped the boulder with his left and right hands respectively, shattering it, and then led the bamboo sword and Ju Jian and others to step on the gravel into the cave.
After entering the entrance of the cave, there was a long tunnel, and after walking for more than ten meters, the light gradually dimmed, and it was difficult to see, so everyone had to light torches and continue to walk.
After walking for a stick of incense, and after turning several sharp corners, Bai Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, and a dazzling light shone through.
He quickly closed his eyes and slowed down for a moment, then opened his eyes again, and at the end of the cave in front of him was a flat clearing, and in the middle of the mountain on the top, there was a skylight formed by nature at the mouth of the well, and the light shone from it.
There is a small lake in the middle of the clearing, the diameter is only three or four zhang, there is a small island in the lake, only the size of a table of eight immortals, but there is a tree growing on it, whether it is Bai Fan or Zhu Jian, Ju Jian and others can no longer take their eyes off after seeing it.
