Chapter 236: Mysterious Creature
Seeing this sentence inexplicably, Tianxing and Zhao Zong didn't know what to say, this is a tombstone with a history of hundreds of years, and who left this sentence?
"Ruins, which ruins, what should I be careful of?" Tianxing guessed in amazement, vaguely remembering where he had heard this phrase, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Hey~Come up, there's a situation~!" Yue Ying's call interrupted Tianxing's train of thought.
Tianxing Zhao Zong glanced at each other, putting the matter behind him for the time being, and the two quickly climbed up the sand dunes to look at Li Li's location.
At this time, Li Li had already cut the carefully grilled fragrant meat into several pieces with a knife, and then threw them around a steep mound that had been carved by the wind and sand like a ghost.
"Why don't you eat the well-roasted meat?" Yue Ying swallowed and wondered.
"Maybe I want to use these barbecue meats as bait to attract prey to be fooled and enter my trap, I used to use this super when I caught wild animals in Baicao Village~!" Tianxing explained to Yue Ying while watching Li Li's figure constantly busy around the mound.
When Li Li finally finished placing the pieces of meat, he struggled to climb onto the mound, took out a vial from the baggage, poured some bright red blood into his palm, and then smeared the blood on his skin, coating all the exposed skin with blood.
When he had done all this, he took out a small net, placed it a few feet above the pieces of meat, and covered them with all the pieces of meat, and when the trap had been carefully arranged, he tightened the rope that was attached to the loop of the net, and slowly leaned down on the mound, looking at the pieces of meat from top to bottom.
Li Li has done all these actions smoothly and very skillfully, obviously this is not the first time he has done such a thing.
Time passed minute by minute, half an hour had passed, but there was nothing abnormal at all, Yue Ying slapped his mouth, stretched lazily, looking a little bored, but Li Li was still in good spirits, looking at the pieces of meat below, and he didn't know what kind of creature attracted him so much.
Just as everyone was suspicious, suddenly a creature crawled out from under the steep mound, and only then did Tianxing and the others notice that there was an inconspicuous hole there.
The creature was extremely cautious, first carefully poked out half of its head and sniffed it in the air, but found no unfamiliar smell, and then revealed a pair of smart little eyes to look around carefully, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal around, 'whoosh~!' rushed out from under the mound, grabbed a piece of flesh and jumped back to the hiding place very quickly.
"Huh~!" Tianxing couldn't help but wonder when he saw this figure.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Zong asked.
"Did you feel a little familiar when you saw this figure just now?" replied Tianxing.
"Well, it's a little familiar, like the two strange shadows crawling among the rocks when we passed by this mound before~!" Zhao Zong also said with some surprise.
"Well, yes, it's just strange what the shadow that appeared before was?Obviously they are two different species~!"
Zhao Zong shook his head, "At that time, the speed was too fast, but it didn't look real for a moment, so it's useless to make more guesses, let's leave these alone for the time being, let's see what kind of creature this thing is~!" Zhao Zong replied.
Yue Ying glanced at Tianxing and Zhao Zong, and seemed to have some doubts and conjectures in his heart, so he said, "It won't be the Spirit ......" but his lips opened, and he felt that it was unlikely, so he shook his head and continued to look at where Li Li was.
Tianxing glanced at Yue Ying, who had only spoken half of his words, but he didn't ask what he wanted to say, but from this moment on, the expression on his face was much more serious, and the thoughts in his mind kept rolling, and he faintly felt that something big was going to happen in his heart.
It's just that after a while, the hole under the mound once again showed the figure of the creature, and it was still cautious to carefully confirm the surroundings, and after not finding any abnormalities around, he cautiously slowly climbed out of the hole where he was hiding, and began to taste the remaining fragrant meat, while eating and observing left and right, lest other creatures suddenly attack, at this time Tianxing and others saw that the creature was actually a small borer~!
"What do you think he did with that moth? Do you want to avenge anyone, let's say that gravel? Yue Ying asked in a low voice.
"Probably not, Li Kun said that he was an orphan and felt inferior since he was a child, rarely interacted with other clansmen, and always wanted to leave the Sand Clan. Skystar whispered back.
"Then what exactly does he want to do......" Yue Ying then asked.
"Shh~, I'm going to know soon~ Look!" Zhao Zong interrupted Yue Ying's words and pointed at the borer.
At this time, the borer had already eaten the last piece of fragrant meat, and it was completely less cautious than before, and its speed of stabilizing its body was also much slower.
However, at this moment, Li Li, who was lying on the mound, pulled the rope in his hand hard, and with a 'bang', the net immediately fell, just trapping the moth firmly in it, and the scream of 'squeaking' struggle came from the net, and the moth kept writhing its body in the net, trying to break through the shackles of the net.
However, Li Li, who had been waiting for a long time, was willing to let go of this opportunity, only to see him jump down from the mound, take out the sharp knife that cut the flesh, and stab the body of the borer dozens of times, until the creature died of anger and no longer struggled before he could stop, and then took out the body of the borer from the net pocket, stabbed it into its abdomen with a knife, and cut its abdomen with a sharp knife, stretched out five fingers to probe into the abdomen of the borer, it was a careful search, just a few breaths, actually took out a piece of gold nuggets the size of pigeon eggs from the belly of the borer, and with wisps of blood。
Li Li's face was full of joy, and he didn't care that the gold nugget was still stained with blood, so he quickly put the gold nugget into his arms, and then cleaned the scene briefly, cleaned up the trap and took the body of the borer, returned to the previous barbecue position, used a knife to cut the body of the borer into several pieces, and then pierced it with a branch, and started a new round of barbecue as it was.
At this time, Tianxing and the others had already understood everything in their hearts, and when they smelled the smell of meat again, they no longer had any appetite, and for some reason, they suddenly felt as if they had eaten a mung bean fly, and they felt nauseous.
"Damn, this thing is so disgusting, in order to get what he wants, he actually uses the meat of the borer to attract the borer~!" Yue Ying retched for a while, and said angrily, he still wanted to grab a piece of meat to eat at that moment.
"It's really a day, although those borers are not a good thing, but Li Li makes people feel uncomfortable doing this~!Phew, it's not a good thing~!" Yue Ying wiped the corners of his mouth and continued.
Zhao Zong is better, after all, he grew up in the Zerg Clan since he was a child, and he has seen the strange Gu refining methods of some clansmen, and the degree of cruelty seems to be the same as what happened in front of him, and he also feels a little accustomed to it in his heart.
"Ah~!" Just when everyone was angry, Li Li behind the mound suddenly let out a frightened scream, Tianxing and the others immediately climbed up the mound and looked down, and found that Li Li actually showed a frightened face, and was climbing the ground in the direction where he and the others were, but not only did he not have any forward track, on the contrary, his body was still retreating backwards, as if he was being dragged backwards by some animal.
Moreover, at the waist of his body, he was wrapped in an unknown transparent slurry, so that he couldn't use his strength at all, because the sun had set at this time, and the light on the surface was a little dim, so everyone couldn't see what the thing that dragged him was~!
"Hmph, evil has evil retribution, praying mantis catches cicadas and sparrows, when he catches prey, he will actually become the prey of other things, this kind of unscrupulous person to achieve the goal, it's better ~!" Yue Ying said with a little relief.
However, Tianxing and Zhao Zong didn't talk, just stared at the creature that was constantly dragging its strength.
The two of them looked at each other hopelessly, and Tianxing said first, "Have you seen the flesh of that moth on the fire?"
Zhao Zong shook his head, "No~ It can't be eaten by that monster, right?"
Yue Ying asked a little puzzled, "What are you talking about?"
"Let's go, follow and see, what the hell is it~!" Tianxing said with a slightly happy face.
"Hmm" Zhao Zong nodded in agreement, and then got up with Tianxing and followed towards Li Li's location.
Yue Ying was inexplicable in his heart, and then grabbed Zhao Zong's arm and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Zhao Zong didn't pull Yue Ying's hand away, punched Yue Ying's head lightly, and said happily: "Dumb Eagle, think about it, there is such a creature that can eat borers, and it is not afraid of fire, aren't you curious?"
Yue Ying rubbed his head and looked at Zhao Zong stunned, "What~ What kind of creature can eat a borer and is not afraid of fire, can't it be the same kind of the borer?
"Hey~, don't you see it so obviously? If it is a large borer, it will definitely bite Li Li to death and devour him, if it is a small borer, it can also spit putrid liquid and injure Li Li, besides, don't you notice the transparent mucus wrapped in Li Li's body? The mucus spit out by the borer is corrosive, but the unknown mucus on Li Li's body obviously does not have this function~! More importantly, those borers are all fire attributes, but this creature is not afraid of fire, now do you understand?" Zhao Zong immediately explained.
After listening to what Zhao Zong said, Yue Ying suddenly understood a lot, "Ha~!, you mean this guy may be a creature that restrains borers~!"
"Does this need to be said so clearly?Why don't you chase after it~!" Zhao Zong said and pulled Yue Ying and caught up with the celestial star who was following the creature closely......
The three of them followed the shadow slowly, cautiously moving forward.
