Chapter 101: White Bone Borneo
Everyone followed Yudong down the sand dune heights, and not far before they came to the euphagi bush.
I saw that the snow-white flowers were hidden in the pot-shaped receptacle, exuding a strange faint light. The fragrance is fragrant, like a green orchid. The emerald green and flat branches and leaves are densely spread on the yellow sand, and you can't see what the rhizome part looks like, but you can see that the vitality is extremely strong, and the growth is very lush.
If you just look at the noble and refined posture of this flower, or only smell the fragrance of this fragrant orchid, no one will definitely associate this flower with some evil evil way. To make matters worse, the flower itself is glowing with a faint brilliance, and it really looks like a legendary treasure of gods and Buddhas.
But the problem is that it blooms holyly and shines in places where it should not have life, which is the feeling of some red children transforming into Guanyin--- although their appearance is like a Buddha, but the evil spirit is great.
So Qin Zhen finally understood why Yudong was a little jealous of this flower.
Gu Jie didn't know what he was thinking when he saw Yu Dong standing in front of the flowers at this time, and he didn't have the slightest intention of starting. Finally couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Dong Shao, you just look at it like this, it won't tell you what the hell it has changed!" Don't you just want to know what this thing gets its nutrients from? Wait for me to uproot a piece of it for you, so that you can study it carefully! ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Jie rolled up his sleeves and was about to start. Yu Dong was shocked when he saw this, and grabbed Gu Jie's wrist with a quick hand, and then said angrily, "You don't want to die!" ”
Fortunately, Yu Dong grabbed him in time, because when Gu Jie's hand was about to touch those flowers, everyone present saw an unbelievably terrifying scene at the same time!
Those seemingly snow-white and beautiful flowers, the moment Gu Jie reached out and approached, it was as if his face had changed suddenly! All the petals stood upright! Then, as if it was like an ogre beast with its mouth open, it reached out to Gu Jie's hand one after another! And at that time, the petals of those flowers were trembling violently, according to Qin Zhen's feeling, it was a strong excitement after seeing the food!!
"! These flowers are fine!! It's a youkai!! Gu Jie covered his hands and retreated in fear, screaming loudly! It's no wonder that he was scared like this, if it wasn't for Yu Dong just now, it is estimated that Lao Gu would have been promoted to a disabled member.
Qin Zhen and the others also looked at these devil flowers in holy clothes in amazement! This is the characteristic of the legendary man-eating flower! However, the so-called man-eating flower in the real world actually refers to the Rafflesia flower. Because of its large flower plate, which can seat a child, and because the flower also emits the smell of rotting corpses, it is called a man-eating flower.
If you want to talk about meat-eating plants, it's not that there are none. In that mysterious Amazon, there are many carnivorous plants. Some of them have to eat more than a dozen fresh lives in order to blossom and live. But what those plants eat is nothing more than flies, mosquitoes, and small insects, and there is no definite evidence that any plant has actually eaten people!
Yu Dong frowned at this time and thought for a moment, then took the gun back and carefully poked the muzzle into the flowers. Unexpectedly, after just poking over, the flower 'bite' the muzzle of the gun like crazy! It was originally a place of weak stamens, but now it looks like layers of steel teeth! The muzzle of the gun made a metallic scratching sound!!
Yu Dong pulled back the gun vigorously, and the flower seemed to have a consciousness, and suddenly slowly retracted in disappointment and changed back to its original state. Look at the muzzle of the gun again, it is full of dense deep bite marks! There are even deep, deep little holes! It's a real thing made of steel! The delicate flowers that sway gently in the wind can bite this muzzle like this!!
Everyone subconsciously took a few steps back, and they all wanted to distance themselves from this ghost flower a little more to ensure safety! Qin Zhen looked at the flowers in surprise, and he couldn't come to his senses for a long time. He didn't even dare to imagine what it would be like if someone walked in rashly. Not to mention walking to the ancient city, it is estimated that there are not even bones left before halfway through!!
I've heard of the ferocity of piranhas, I've heard of the bloodthirstiness of behemoths, and I've heard of all kinds of animals that can threaten human life, but I've never heard of such a delicate flower under the banner of 'Buddhist Ruibao', and it is so terrible to change its face!!
Qin Zhen couldn't help but look at Yu Dong at this time, and said with a slight tremble, "Yu Dong... Is this what you just said about the six rays of the Lotus Sutra...? Three thousand years of flowering, these bloodthirsty and man-eating iron-toothed and copper-toothed things bloomed? Where is this true Buddha born, it's simply a demon entering the world! ”
Yu Dong didn't say anything when he heard this, but stared thoughtfully at the Yutan Brahava, who had returned to normalcy. In a moment, he suddenly picked up the gun again, and once again put the muzzle of the gun into the flowers! Qin Zhen took a look at it and thought, just say that the gun is made of iron, otherwise, it would have been like melon seeds to knock these flowers into the house!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the muzzle of the gun poked over, those flowers instantly 'transformed' and violently wrapped around the muzzle, gnawing fiercely! Yu Dong was not in a hurry, and let those flowers become more and more tightly entangled. It wasn't until the entire muzzle of the gun was wrapped with flowers, and the tearing force was almost about to pull Yu Dong, that Yu Dong made a force on his wrist and suddenly lifted the gun!!
He suddenly lifted up, and the flowers that were tightly wrapped around the barrel of the gun didn't have time to retract at all, and they were all brought up by Yudong's branches and leaves!!
However, at the moment when those rhizomes and yellow sand were suddenly lifted out of the ground by Yudong, everyone opened their mouths in shock! Lan Qing couldn't help but snort softly, then covered her mouth, looking at the rhizomes with flowers in horror.
No one expected that the flower that Yudong pulled up would be wrapped around the rhizome with white bones!!
Yu Dong was not surprised to see this scene, and even took a closer look. The tentacles on the stem were deeply rooted in the white bones, and then the rhizome grew around the bone, and when the rhizome was crawling all over the bones, the branches and flowers on it grew out.
Qin Zhen's scalp was numb for a while, and there were goosebumps on his body! This flower... It actually grows on white bones!! I've heard that it grows in water, in the soil, and in the cracks of stones, but I never thought that there are flowers in this world that grow in bones!!
In that case, then... So how many white bones have to be buried for fertilizer under the magic flowers that are nearly ten miles around??
Qin Zhen swallowed his saliva, looked at Yu Dong and asked a question a little knowingly, "Yu Dong, this... Were the bones eaten by the flowers, or did the flowers grow on them? ”
Yu Dong was still as indifferent as ever, and replied with great certainty, "It grows on bones." The roots go straight into the bone marrow and then take root in the bones. Ay! No wonder... With such an evil way of growing, it is naturally not afraid of the cruel environment around it. However, to be able to bloom such a large area of white bone Borna, it is estimated that the human bones of that city must be used as nourishment. ”
Although Yu Dong's words were as light as a breeze, the rest of the people were terrified when they heard it!! Could it be that the holy land of Buddhism in Khotan was destroyed by these white bone brahmas? Or is the appearance of these flowers intentional?
As plants and biologists, the team members all forced their curiosity to suppress their curiosity, and no one dared to go too far forward to study and observe. I had to look at these weird and terrifying flowers from a distance.
At this time, Yudong pulled out a large piece of flower branches and rhizomes, of course, there were bones attached to it.
I saw Yu Dong unceremoniously pulling the rhizome of the flower back and forth with the barrel of the gun, and said a little happily, "Oh, so that's what happened." ”
"What's going on...?" Qin Zhen asked.
Yu Dong naturally picked up a rhizome and turned around and raised it in front of Qin Zhen. Qin Zhen ran away with a frightened voice. After running far enough, he looked at Yu Dong with resentful eyes and scolded, "You bastard! You're trying to fake the communiqué and personal vendetta, isn't it!! ”
Yu Dong looked at Qin Zhen's panicked escape, was slightly stunned, and then asked with an innocent face, "Once this thing leaves the bone, it will die faster than the fish out of the water, what are you afraid of?" ”
After hearing this, Qin Zhen pondered for a moment, and saw that the flowers on the barrel of Yudong had indeed withered, so he said angrily while walking back, "Nonsense!!" How did I know it would die? If you scare me and torture me like this again, if the flower is not dead, I should die! ”
Yu Dong shrugged his shoulders helplessly, then pointed to the roots of the flower and said, "It seems that this thing can only grow in this kind of grassless place." Most of the components of human bones are organic matter and inorganic salts, and some minerals are stored. The roots of this white bone bharata are the guò honeycomb-shaped bone tissue that enters the interior and then absorbs the essence of the human bone to survive. The bone salt is mainly composed of calcium and phosphorus chemicals, and all of them are absorbed by it, which is why it has a faint halo like phosphorus fire. ”
After speaking, Yu Dong looked at the withered flower with some pride, and smiled slightly with relief. It felt like a child who had finally solved the world's problems after meditating and pondering...... This made Qin Zhen feel quite speechless, who would have thought that this cold and crazy young master would have such a 'childlike' side!
