Chapter 1178: The Last Strike, First Come
In the end, it was Zhao Qingya who opened her mouth, "We still have too little information to draw any conclusions from it, this is just a purely academic discussion, this place is not safe, let's step up and find an outlet." Eighty-one? Chinese?? Net (1) ??.? 8?”
Yang Dahai saw that his goal had been achieved, so he stepped aside with a sigh of relief, indicating that he obeyed the leader's arrangement.
After that, everyone was back on the road, and I, as the person with the strongest combat effectiveness in the whole team, naturally walked in front of the road with the Yin sword, Zhao Qingya followed closely behind with a gun, and finally Yang Dahai and the two members of the scientific expedition team.
They walked forward for hundreds of meters, and no one spoke during the process, and it was obvious that everyone was quite nervous, after all, those strange insects could appear at any time.
After passing over a few stone tripods that had flipped on their sides, I raised my hand for everyone to stop, because there was a faint smell of blood wafting from not far ahead.
Obviously, Zhao Qingya also smelled this smell, she covered her nose, raised the pistol, and said a little nervously, "Consultant Yu, this is ...... The smell of blood, thank you team leader, are they ......"
I asked her not to rush to conclusions, according to Cui Shengyuan's reflection, although the scientific expedition team was attacked by these strange insects at that time, they dispersed without seeing the results, although someone will definitely be killed, but with the ability of the sun, self-protection should still be no problem.
Speaking of this, Yang Dahai came up to him, "Two, what is the situation, why do we stop, is it those strange insects?" ”
The reason why he asked this question was because ordinary people's sense of smell was actually very indefinite, and these stone tripods were very old, and they themselves had a musty gray smell, if they didn't smell carefully, it was easy to ignore this faint smell of blood.
As for why Zhao Qingya can smell it, it probably has a lot to do with the demon pill in her body.
I didn't have time to explain anything to him, so I made a silent gesture and walked forward with my sword in hand.
There are several broken stone tripods not far away, one of them falls on its side in the sand, the crack on the mouth of the tripod is still new, it should have been broken recently, I walked to the front and squatted down and smelled it, the smell of blood is much stronger than just now, I don't know if there is a problem in this tripod.
However, because of the side falling, it broke again, and it was filled with yellow sand, and it needed to be dug up to see how to understand.
Zhao Qingya soon showed this situation, took out the white gloves and put them on, and was about to make a move, but I stopped her, the current situation is completely different from just now, in case the strange insect is hidden inside, she doesn't even have a chance to escape.
She opened her mouth to defend herself, but she backed away when she saw my serious look.
I exhaled, focused, and began to use my sword to slowly lift the sand out of the ding.
Don't say that this job is really not easy to do, although the Yin Sword is extremely sharp, sharpening iron like mud, but the sand is invisible, it can't be used at all, and it hasn't picked out much after a long time, which is a little embarrassing, I knew that it would be good to ask Zhao Qingya to borrow a small shovel first, and now I have persuaded people to retire, and I can't open my mouth.
After digging a few more times, a small shovel was handed over from the side, and as soon as I looked up, I saw Yang Dahai's somewhat helpless face, "Consultant Yu, let's use this, you can hurry up." ”
This is obviously the small shovel that Zhao Qingya used just now, but she knew that she took care of my face and asked Yang Dahai to send it.
I said thank you, took the shovel and began to dig, this time it was much faster, and in a short time I dug out a black ball from the sand, and an extremely strong smell of blood immediately rushed into my nose.
I took a step back, and at this moment, the black ball rolled out with a grunt, and rushed towards the nearest Yang Dahai.
He seemed to have seen something terrifying, screamed and fell backwards, but fortunately he was stopped by Cui Shengyuan and Zhang Ming, who were standing behind.
However, the expressions of these two people soon became extremely ugly, and they actually pulled Yang Dahai to sit on the ground together.
At this time, Zhao Qingya also raised the pistol, and it looked like she was about to shoot, so I rushed up with an arrow and pressed on the safety at the end of the gun, "Don't shoot, it's too loud, don't attract those strange insects." ”
Zhao Qingya frowned, "No need to lead, it's already here!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the wind burst out, and when I turned my head, a white shadow came out of the black ball, and shot at the three people sitting on the ground like lightning.
I subconsciously raised my sword and slashed at the white shadow in mid-air, but the thing was so fast that it changed its direction in the air and fell into the sand not far away.
A hazy feeling came over me, if I let it run, I'm afraid something big will happen!
The eye of heaven opened instantly, and the person carried the spirit snake footwork, slid to the right, the long sword was picked to the right, and several sword qi were danced, only to hear a light sound of puff, and the sand in that area exploded directly, and several white shadows flew out of it, and then fell to the ground and did not move.
Only then did I see that the white shadow was a flesh worm more than a foot long, this worm was a bit like an earthworm, and its body was a circle of flesh rings, and in addition to two black eyes the size of sesame seeds on the head, it was a mouthpiece like a sucker, which was full of barbs.
I looked at the body of the insect that was still twisted and cut into several pieces on the ground, and I didn't feel disgusted, but a little happy.
That set of actions just now can be said to be the last to come, and in the case of no moves at all, the driving Yin Sword slashed out several sword qi, if it was placed a few days ago, it would be absolutely impossible to do, but after mastering the true cultivation method of Yun Yijue, this impossibility became possible, and I even had a feeling of gradual rebirth.
"That's it...... It's this bug, no, it's a little different. Yang Dahai finally came back to his senses, got up suddenly, and ran back for more than ten meters.
The two people behind also ran over, Zhao Qingya shook her head, walked to the side and squatted down, and picked at the insect with a small shovel, "Xiao Yang, the strange insect you are talking about is this thing, right?" ”
Yang Dahai looked at this side for a while, and then said, "I'm not sure, it's a bit like it, it's a little bit like it, those strange insects are obviously much bigger than this one, most of them are light red, and the head is not like this, it clearly looks like a human face, and it's terrifying." ”
Zhao Qingya thought for a while, and then said, "Maybe this is just a larva, in biology, there are many examples of juveniles and adults who are very different. ”
After finishing speaking, she bent down again to take a closer look, and after a while, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Well, the characteristics of this insect body remind me of a creature called the checkered star worm that grows in the sandy land along the southern coast. ”
