Chapter 194: A Female Beast Comes
Lin Luoran deeply felt that he was a crow's mouth.
The molten slurry, which continued to tumble after a day, not only did not recede, but rose a few meters.
This abnormal phenomenon made the animals panic. They had to move close above the open space to secure a safer position from the re-ascentging of the molten lava.
There are dozens of species of animals here, ranging in size and position in the food chain. Originally, everyone was temporarily safe because of the disaster, but as the spatial distance narrowed, they got closer and closer to each other, and finally the first commotion in Lin Luoran's conjecture broke out.
The cause of the incident was an ant, because it accidentally stepped into the territory of the gopher, and was swallowed by a gopher, and it was still smashing its mouth, and the ants here were angry and sent a large army.
As the saying goes, ants bite elephants to death, and a population like ants, with the exception of gophers and other species with the same fecundity, are generally stupid enough to attack an army of ants when they gather.
Therefore, in the war between rats and ants and rats, the animals have chosen to stand by.
The two armies fought very quickly, and soon there was a corpse left on the ground where the gophers and ants had fought. Natural selection, fighting is not a place that makes Lin Luoran disgusting.
What disgusted her was that the corpses left behind after the fight triggered the snatching of gophers and ants. Robbing each other's corpses is just the spoils of war, but what they snatch is the corpses sacrificed on their own side...... Lin Luoran began to think that they were collecting corpses for the same kind, and Wen Guanjing also felt that although these were aliens, they could be regarded as affectionate and righteous.
But soon, reality slapped the two of them in a resounding slap.
The gopher dragged the dead gopher back, and the ants took the dead ant back...... Then Lin Luoran saw a group of gophers pounce on the corpse of the dead gopher, and the ants first offered the corpse to the huge queen ant to enjoy, ensuring the "food" of the queen ant, and then they themselves.
Lin Luoran felt a tumbling in his heart, and he had to have strong restraint to stop himself from throwing it out on the spot.
It's like a man eating a man.|When you ride a male mantis into the realm of selflessness, you bite off its head and then slowly eat the entire body of the male mantis, and the male mantis acts as nutrition for the unborn child...... If this can be disguised with the excuse of "reproduction", why should it be like this when many animals have only been trapped for a day and have not yet reached the end of the mountain?
Yes, the ants are numerous, small in size, and easy to carry, so the ants choose to bring back the corpses of the same kind? And dead gophers have more meat, which is more in line with the amount of gopher food? If so, why start this fight again...... It's more like two races premeditating on the elimination of the old, weak, sick and disabled in the group in preparation for what may be a more brutal animal scuffle.
But this is the practice of eliminating it and using it as "food", Lin Luoran really can't accept it.
Lin Luoran is not worried about the shortage of food, what she doesn't want to see is endless harassment in the next - when these animals kill more and more crazy, they will always hit them. This place is like a small plain, crowded with countless animals, although for the time being, they have not seen a giant animal that threatens them like the Scorpion King, even if they are in front of them, if they finally choose to attack the two of them, it will be enough for Lin Luoran and them to kill softly.
The first day passed in the silence of Lin Luoran.
Under the scorching heat, people want to be drowsy, and animals are no exception. Lin Luoran and Wen Guanjing sat down in a horn posture, and Lin Luoran let go of the divine sense warning that had been suppressed to the point that it could be regarded as a "tragedy", and repeatedly told the little green fox not to leave his side, and then began to settle and cultivate.
Wen Guanjing is realm has fallen, and there is nothing to regret at this time, but the plain surrounded by molten lava is majestic with fire aura, and he naturally wants to seize the time to recover his aura.
Both of them have a feeling of uneasiness, they have been involved in the current situation because of the mural, but they still know nothing about the clues about the mural...... The prohibition in the ruins of the desert is obviously not a means of nature, but a trace of a monk.
The sudden sand depression is the inevitable result of the ban, and there are still people, or some kind of existence, who want to let them go down to this underground world.
These questions are more than Lin Luoran's thoughts, Wen Guanjing, who grew up in the Xiuzhen family, has some advantages that Lin Luoran can't match, such as information and literature-Wen Guanjing can be 100% sure that this underground world does not seem to be known to the current cultivation world.
Unusual animals underground, criss-crossing tunnels, glowing glowing plants, strange fires, and all kinds of spiritual grasses...... If this place had been discovered earlier, it would have been the best place to test, and the cultivation world would not give up this piece of fat.
Therefore, it is very likely that there is really a mystery clue about the "disappearance of the Yuan Infant Monk" here, but they don't know where to start yet.
**********
When Lin Luoran opened his eyes again, this arched plain was still so hot, and the red light shone on the surrounding rock walls, indicating that the lava had indeed not dispersed.
The little green fox was not in his arms.
Lin Luoran was startled and almost jumped up. She looked intently, the little green fox was three feet to the left, constantly digging the ground with its paws, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned again.
She was originally cultivating last night, how could she fall asleep unconsciously?
Wen Guanjing hung his head. Lin Luoran held back the uneasiness in his heart and shook him awake.
Both of them actually fell asleep...... This is so abnormal, in such an environment, the two of them are cultivating all night, very vigilant, how can they fall asleep at the same time?
Lin Luoran raised his eyes, and sure enough, many animals in the field were sleeping. For example, the big seals that occupy the center are sleeping soundly, and small animals such as gophers and ants are also resting in the middle of the road.
The only exceptions are the little green foxes, the rabbits the size of hunting dogs, and the long-legged and elegant elk, these animals with a more gentle temperament, I don't know if they are not affected at all, or if they wake up before Lin Luoran, anyway, when she opened her eyes, she found that they were the same as the little green fox, constantly digging the ground.
If these gentle animals that eat herbs are not asleep in the first place, then the first one to wake up should be the strongest self...... Lin Luoran snorted, if she hadn't woken up, or if she wouldn't have such good luck next time, would she have been snatched away by some kind of creature in such a sleep?
She and Wen Guanjing communicated with each other, and they both thought that there was obviously a "mysterious existence" many levels higher than them in this underground. Or what Yaki calls "the curse of the demons", or maybe it's just an unusually powerful outlier.
Is it a demon cultivator, an evil demon, or a ...... Monk?
Lin Luoran was worried, she was not afraid of powerful enemies. She is afraid of the powerful, but has never shown up the enemy, this kind of existence, not only has strong strength, but also has a careful mind, which is the most difficult for them to escape.
"Squeak-" The little green fox finally stopped digging the ground and threw a piece of something in front of Lin Luoran.
The tubers of a piece of plant, buried deep in the soil, have a bud on the yellow wet soil, apparently the roots of some kind of plant, giving birth to energy, waiting for the season to come and then drill back into the soil.
"For me?" Seeing that the little green fox kept signaling her to pick it up, Lin Luoran finally reacted, this little fox is too good, as far as it can see, they obviously caught a rabbit halfway, and there is no shortage of food for the time being, it is going to dig tubers, is it taking precautions?
Lin Luoran found that those herbivores such as rabbits and elk were also digging for the roots and tubers of various plants buried deep in the soil, and of course, some hay had not yet rotted and could be satisfied.
Lin Luoran was still sighing at the adaptability of the animals, and when she saw Wen Guanjing, she looked worried, and she cheered up and relaxed: "Why don't we roast a rabbit to eat?" ”
She said and handed Wen Guanjing a reserve of rabbit meat, and the latter quickly used magic to make a shiny roast rabbit, because the rabbit was too big, the two of them couldn't finish a meal, Lin Luoran didn't care, the little green fox ate so much that his stomach was round.
Of course, the small pile of tubers it had worked so hard to find was still closely guarded, and no one was allowed to approach its food reserves except Lin Luoran.
The aroma of roasted rabbits woke up those sleeping animals, although the aroma of roasted rabbits was attractive, but the animals were born with a sense of vigilance, knowing that Lin Luoran and the two were strong, until the last moment, they would not easily provoke the two.
But after being wheted up and having not eaten for a day, carnivores, including large seals, finally attacked herbivores with tender flesh such as rabbits and elk.
The rabbit jumped over the deer and ran, the blood was all over the ground, and the little green fox buried his head in Lin Luoran's arms, frightened by those screams. Lin Luoran frowned and couldn't bear it, Wen Guanjing suddenly said:
"Senior sister, in fact, these carnivores are not just for food...... Have you noticed that after a night, the molten has risen again? Add to that the constant plowing of the ground by these deer, rabbits, and goats, and soon the plains will become shorter......"
became shorter, a molten wave hit, the molten slurry poured back, and none of the creatures present were spared, except for her and Wen Guanjing, who could rise and dodge with the sword.
In fact, Edgeworth can't hide for a lifetime, this semi-arched sky dome is all black rocks, dotted with some luminous substances, Lin Luoran is not sure how close this place is to the ground, whether she can dig a hole to escape before the molten slurry is filled - she doesn't want to escape, Bao Jia hasn't found it yet.
As soon as she had this thought, the heavens seemed to be determined to joke with Lin Luoran, the heavenly dome of the plain began to shake, a ray of heavenly light poured down, Lin Luoran propped up the light mask, and other animals that were not protected were smashed and injured a lot without defense.
When the wind and waves were calm, Lin Luoran raised his eyes and looked, in the hazy light, a person dressed in fairy clothes, riding a four-hoofed animal on fire, and slowly landed in the void.
The ground was crawling, and the trembling animals, only she and Wen Guanjing were still standing straight, their eyes wide in disbelief.
The woman looked around, muttering something, but never got off the back of the firehoof.
"Bao Jia-" Lin Luoran couldn't help but speak, this was actually Bao Jia, she couldn't help but shout with apprehension and joy.
The woman looked here, her eyes were cold, noble and extraordinary, and she didn't seem to know Lin Luoran at all.
"Dragage...... Who is it? ”
