Chapter 82: The Fish Soldier Borrows the Way
The lake is very large, and if you look at it a little, it is a large oval lake, and the narrowest place should be more than ten kilometers wide.
Walking in front of the lake, everyone slowly stopped.
"Miss Xu, where are we going next? Don't tell us, we have to cross the lake next, it's too dangerous. ”
Among the mergers, Zhao Rutie asked, he obviously regarded himself as the leader of the group of employees, and he felt very high-spirited.
In fact, Zhao Rutie also felt that it was a very correct choice for him to enter the ruins this time, there were too many good things in the ruins, except for the one surnamed Zhou, no one else could snatch himself at all.
"Don't go near this lake, let's go around it. ”
The yellow-faced old man and the white-haired old man stopped everyone and did not approach the lake, but turned around from the lake.
Fortunately, people don't need to cross the lake, just cross the lake, which may waste a lot of time, but it is much safer.
After the revival of the aura, although human beings began to enter the cultivation and their strength improved a lot, they were still unable to breathe in the water.
When you first enter the ruins, there will be a powerful mussel beast in a black water river, and who knows how many terrifying monsters will be hidden in this large lake.
Moreover, this large lake is not as calm as the Heishui River, and there are waves on the surface of the water from time to time.
Above the lake, dragonflies the size of a human head circled, bringing some black fruits the size of a baby's fist out of nowhere.
As they fly over the lake, the large dragonflies release their claws, and the black fruits fall into the lake.
Before it could fall, large fish more than two meters long jumped out of the lake and swallowed the fruit into their stomachs.
Large dragonflies are constantly flying in and out of the way.
Feeding non-stop.
It seems to be ...... It's the same as these fish in the breeding lake, it's very weird.
Walking around the lake, it's strange to say. Monsters have always used humans as food, and humans will hunt monsters on a large scale and collect materials from them. In the past, when humans and monsters met, they didn't need to say much at all, and they would go to war directly.
But now, the dragonflies hovering over the lake, as if they couldn't see everyone at all, only cared about throwing fruit into the lake, and not a single monster came to attack.
Well...... Pacifist?
Since these dragonflies will not take the initiative to provoke the fight, then the crowd is much more relaxed.
The group of dragonflies has condensed into a black cloud, who knows how many there are, and the dragonflies can fly, if they really want to fight, it will be very bad for everyone.
As soon as they left the range of the lake, before everyone could relax, they heard a "bang" sound coming from the position behind them.
Suddenly, many people looked back.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The fish are catching up!
"Everybody on guard. The yellow-faced old man's face sank, his face was solemn, and the long whip in his hand was thrown out instantly.
Others also took action, and they were all ready to fight accordingly.
The group of fish got closer and closer, and everyone saw that the back half of these fish had two hind legs like toads, jumping forward one after another.
Dozens of fish form a team, they are very fast, the two-meter-long body of the fish stands up, and every time the hind legs exert force, they can jump forward several meters away.
"Attack!"
The yellow-faced old man suddenly burst into tears, and instantly struck, and the long whip was thrown towards the fish beast in front.
The extremely fast dancing long whip was like a sharp blade, extremely sharp, even if there were hard scales on the body of the fish beast, it was cut off by this long whip.
In the air, the shadow of the whip is heavy.
The corners of Yu Qing's mouth twitched...... This old man, powerful unreal.
The yellow-faced old man and the white-haired old man used to be martial artists in the war general realm, and they must have mastered a lot of high-level martial arts, and the spiritual weapons in their hands ...... Very unusual.
If it was their usual weapon before the realm fell...... That's quite possible...... Superior Spiritual Weapon!
As the yellow-faced old man attacked, others also took action.
One by one, the big fish were quickly killed.
Oddly enough...... These fish beasts, from the very beginning, did not fight back at all, even if the attack had already landed on their bodies, they did not dodge, let alone attack humans.
They seem to be just there to get on the road.
Even when attacked, they keep jumping forward.
After leaving behind a dozen fish corpses, the school of fish passed through the location of the group and came behind everyone...... Then continue on your way.
The fish were too fast and not in the same direction as the team, so no one was chasing them.
The inexplicable battle ended quickly.
"It's strange, why don't these monsters attack us?" said a warrior in confusion.
"Who knows, wouldn't it be better not to attack us, do you still want them to attack us?" someone scolded.
Yu Qing looked at the two old men beside Xu Yingzi, and his face gradually sank.
He found that things had slowly gotten out of the Xu family's control.
If the Xu family knew in advance that there was something abnormal in this group of fish beasts, they would definitely know the reason why these fish beasts would not do anything to everyone, and they would not have been so nervous before.
Obviously, the Xu family did not have any information about this group of fish and beasts.
"Yu Qing, have you found anything?" Huo Qi'an came to Yu Qing's side and asked in a low voice.
Yu Qing shook his head and said in a low voice: "There are too few clues, there are no heads, no brains, nothing can be analyzed, have you found anything?"
Huo Qi'an spread his hands, if he found out, he wouldn't ask Yu Qing, Xiao Tsundere didn't want to lose face.
"Damn, these fish are also poisonous, and there is no way to eat them. In the team, there were warriors who inspected the fish corpses, and then cursed in a low and rude voice.
"If we continue like this, we won't be able to find a source of food, let alone being killed by monsters, we might starve to death here!"
"How much more Nutrition Pill do you have?"
"I can last two days. ”
"I brought a lot of them with me before I came, dozens of them. ”
In order to calm people's hearts, the yellow-faced old man said to everyone with a gentle attitude: "Don't worry, we brought a lot of nutritional pills before we came, which is enough for all of us to eat for more than ten days." ”
"In ten days, we have already gone back. ”
"It's still thoughtful that the Xu family thinks. Everyone nodded their heads, calmed down, and no longer worried.
"Huo Qi'an, give me a nutritional pill. Yu Qing walked to Huo Qi'an's side, stretched out his hand and said.
Huo Qi'an didn't hesitate, and grabbed five or six nutritional pills for Yu Qing, "You can't eat enough of this thing, so you have to eat a few more." ”
He thought that Yu Qing was not carrying enough food.
Yu Qing didn't explain to him either, and threw a nutritional pill into his mouth.
As the Nutrition Pill entered his abdomen, Yu Qing hurriedly observed it carefully.
The nutrient pill is turned into body nutrients, which continue to pour into the cells of the body.
Because of the existence of life source blood, Yu Qing felt the changes in his body more clearly.
After swallowing six nutrient pills, Yu Qing's pupils quickly constricted.
Originally, six pills were enough to maintain the body's energy.
But.
Not enough now!
The air in this ruin is poisonous, and even a simple breath can absorb the poison into the body.
These toxins accelerate the loss of nutrients from the body.
And the longer you stay here, the more toxic substances you have in your body, and the faster your nutrients are lost.
The food carried by the Xu family is simply not enough to maintain a normal life for more than ten days!
Yu Qing licked his lips.
Very interesting.
Everyone continued to move forward, in a different direction from the fish, so they didn't know what was so strange about the fish.
Yu Qing silently contacted "Xiaozi" and "Xiaoyin" in his heart.
The black scorpion Xiao Zi didn't know where he had gone, it was a bit far away from him, and it was difficult to establish a spiritual connection. However, in this poisonous land, Yu Qing is not worried about its danger.
Silently connect with the butterfly "Little Purple".
Give orders.
Not far ahead of everyone.
There is a patch of medicinal herbs, about forty or fifty plants.
It's just that.
These herbs seemed to have been gnawed away by something, bare, leaving only the roots and stems, but the most valuable leaves and fruits were gone.
A silver butterfly quickly devoured the last leaf of the medicinal herb, flew out of the medicinal field, and flew into the distance.
The medicinal materials in this ruin are all poisonous, and for humans, there is no way to swallow them directly, so they can only use these medicinal materials as alchemy materials.
But because of the two poisonous insects, this is indeed the biggest tonic.
The more you eat, the faster your strength will grow.
Walking in the center of the team, while hurrying, he sorted out the news from Xiaoyin's side.
Finally, a complete analysis of what happened.
The group of fish beasts went all the way to a big black tree, and then they didn't move.
Under the canopy of the large tree, there is a mud house made of black mud hanging from the trunk.
With the arrival of the fish beast, a black bee cloud flew out of the mud house, and countless black bees gathered in a swarm and pounced towards the fish beast, instantly sucking the bodies of these dozens of fish beasts dry.
Then most of the bee clouds returned to the mud house, and a small number of bee clouds turned their heads and flew in the other direction.
The bee cloud flew over a black mud and began to spiral and fly, slowly descending to altitude.
In the black mud tan, a large toad slowly showed its head, and its long tongue popped out of its mouth, catching the black bees one by one.
In the process, those black bees did not mess up at all.
Still hovering over the quagmire in an orderly manner.
From dragonflies to big fish, then to black bees, then to toads.
A weird food chain.
However, this simply cannot happen!
No matter what kind of creature it is, there is no way to face death calmly, and fear cannot be eliminated, this is nature.
What's more, the monsters here actually use themselves as food and personally deliver them to the mouths of predators!
"Let's stop for a moment, we have already walked a third of the way, and now I will explain to you the specific plan of this operation. ”
The yellow-faced old man blocked everyone's way and said with a serious expression.
Yu Qing's face was stunned, and the Xu family was finally willing to announce the plan.
"In this ruin, there are five houses where ancient qi practitioners lived. The yellow-faced old man said.
"Our task is to find out all these houses. ”
